    Nine has many layers to it. It’s the most interesting of all of the Star Wars movies, just isn’t appreciated by hot take internet culture that fixates on the nitpicks.

    In one of the layers, it has a good message for children that are learning in school that their ancestors did terrible things. You don’t have to identify with your ancestors, you can and should identify with the good people in the past. Even those that opposed your ancestors.

    Probably don’t need to go so far as changing your name because your ancestors did some bad shit, but it’s Star Wars, people are always changing their names to signal their alignment.
