      It's fine using a character the audience knows in order to evoke emotion, but in the case of TRoS the characters respond like the audience does, not like an actual in-world character would. They genuinely respond as if they've watched the original trilogy.

      I don’t understand this criticism. Why would people not know who the Senator who took control of the Republic as a dictator and ruled it as a fascist Empire for decades was? What evidence is there to suggest people wouldn’t know who he is?

      That was 30 years before, and someone like Rey has been living as a scavenger on a remote desert planet for decades. Even if she knows the name, do you think she'd know what a Sith is? what danger they pose? Even the very concept of a Jedi was reduced to legend already.

      Hell, a few years after the fall of the empire, even our dear Mandalorian had never heard of a Jedi or the Force. They're significant in the movies but to the average person in the universe? The lowly scavenger on some remote planet?

      Rey is studying to become a Jedi, first with Luke, then with Leia in these films. I think it’s okay for the film to assume she’s been informed of these matters without it being explicitly shown onscreen.

      Assuming she only knows what she knew before the beginning of TFA also ignores everything she learns both on and off screen over the course of the next two films.

      Fair, she'll probably have had history lessons, and the Jedi texts have information (how that info is still valid after all that time is a different topic).

      But I feel they still responded too personally, as if they knew him, not as if they've been told about him in a history lesson.

      Keep in mind that Rey, at least, knew the name "Darth Sidious" offhand when Luke started quoting cynical /r/StarWars threads in TLJ

      Lord, I’d forgotten that Johnson wrote that goofy-ass terrible prequel name into TLJ. The scene as executed is so good (particularly how Hamill sells it), but yeah can’t really complain about them assuming ppl know obscure shit after that lol

      Him using the name "Darth Sidious" actually has pretty big plot implications - back in the prequels the whole deal was the Jedi knew Darth Sidious was the name of the Separatists' mysterious backer and Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus and Darth Maul's mentor

          For Luke to casually namedrop "Sidious" to mean "Palpatine" means that whole conspiracy - where Palpatine actually started the war he got all the credit for saving the Republic from - is now public historical knowledge

          And the really interesting thing is no one cares - the people still loyal to the Empire and its ideology are apparently just fine with the fact that the formation of the Empire was based on a giant con job

          Right, and ancillary material of the highest order (Rebels) establishes that the conspiracy between the two factions was in fact so well known that the Battle Droids know it after Ep. 3 &can therefore be convinced that their civic allegiance is to the Rebellion,bc.Empire=Republic
