The final film in Star Wars‘ nine-episode Skywalker Saga, Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, is finally here. In wrapping up the 42-year story, Rise of Skywalker takes a whole lot of looks back on the films of the past, bringing back a host of old characters and tying up more than a few major plot points and mysteries. It’s full of references to past movies as well–not just with returning characters, but with moments, lines, and images repeated that conjure up eight movies’ worth of memories.
