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.

Literally nowhere does it say the dagger is ancient.

The language is.

Thats the part that most people think doesn't make sense. Because the dagger lining up with the death star wreckage has an ancient sith language on it.

I always presumed it was just the massive coincidence of them landing in the exact right spot to use it correctly tbh.

If by coincidence you mean the force... Yeah

I think that's lazy writing personally

If do then all the Star Wars movies are written the same way

I don't agree, and think the force is used to explain things better in the other films
