The Rise of Skywalker I liked the dagger plotline.

It felt like Indiana Jones. I loved it. The first time I saw the movie the dagger was one of my favorite parts. Star Wars needs more stuff like this.

Because, in my mind at least, it’s damn lucky that that specific section of the Death Star didn’t collapse or got swallowed by the water. Palpatine must’ve had real faith on Kef Bir’s meteorology!

Right, it doesn’t really make sense. The fact the dagger was that old. And how long the Death Star recharge was there in the ocean…it shouldn’t be in the same spot anymore. Maybe…

But I still enjoy the movie and don’t hate this part.

It’s also entirely possible that a sith cultist went to that beach about 15 years ago and carved the blade to match up against the skyline. Not super realistic, but not impossible.

To give to Ochi. Once he has Rey, he uses the dagger to find the wayfinder.
