It’s not a guarantee, the page count could be the longest because every other character is called ‘Hekis Durumm Perdo Kolokk Baldikarr Thun’ or ‘Paodok’Draba’Takat Sap’De’Rekti Nik’Linke’Ti’ Ki’Vef’Nik’NeSevef’Li’Kek’ (also known as Pao). The assumption, however, is the longest page count is because the story itself is so long, therefore the movie will have the longest runtime yet.

Something I hope is the case. It is, after all, the end of an era with Episode IX, so give us as much as you can. Let’s finish what started the best franchise ever created with a bang.

Next. Trilogy by Benioff and Weiss to be set in the Old Republic. dark
