The team of the Darths & Droids screencap webcomic have produced The Rise of Skywalker Bingo, which contains predictions about Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

Print out this page and take it to your viewing of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker! Mark off the squares whenever the indicated event happens in the movie. If you get five in a row, you win! If a friend wants to play too, reload this page for a new card.

Which of the predictions were correct for the film?

For most of the questions, a one-line answer suffices. For events that clearly didn't appear on screen, just a “no” suffices. For events that did occur, please mention the scene where it occurs. Only a very few predictions (near misses or ambiguous occurences) merit explanations, but it may be better to link to a separate question in that case.

    @TheLethalCarrot it's still too broad imho. Dec 18, 2019 at 14:32

    @ColumbiasaysReinstateMonica It's a finite list and the previous two for the other two films are still open and were well received. It's also a lot less broad than some mass character ID questions that have been ruled on topic.

Long have I waited to answer this question.

I will try to answer this as best I can from memory. If anyone has additional information, feel free to add it.

  1. Someone gets a hand cut off. – No.

  2. Someone has a bad feeling about “this”. – Of course, Lando Calrissian.

  3. BB-8 has a new attachment/tool/appendage. – Maybe, we see him tinkering around with things.

  4. C-3PO says how many forms of communication he’s fluent in. – May happen when he refuses to translate Sith (Poe mentions it) and after he got rebooted.

  5. Wilhelm scream. – ?

  7. “May the Force be with you.” – Yes.

  8. Something is a trap! – No.

  9. Percussive maintenance on the Millennium Falcon. – I don't recall.

  15. Someone constructs a new lightsaber. – Yes, at the very end.

  16. Character we haven’t seen since the prequel trilogy. – Palpatine, if you consider the production timeline and not the in-universe timeline. Also, the Jedi voices Rey hears at the end feature several matches, most noticeably Mace Windu.

  18. Hyperdrive malfunction. – Yes.

  19. A yellow lightsaber. – Yes.

  20. An alien animal attacks! – Several.

  22. Lightsaber wield combo more epic than ever seen before. – Two lightsabers in the shape of an X; swapping lightsabers via Force teleportation.

  54. Blaster shot ricochets and kills someone. – No, unless you count ricochetting off a light sabre.

  55. Bigger than life size hologram. – Yes, Palpatine.

  56. Someone is immune to Jedi mind tricks. – No.

  70. Events in space as seen from a planet's surface. – The Battle of Exegol, which happened half in space.

  72. A droid fixes a spaceship. – Maybe.

  73. Gratuitous topless Kylo Ren. – No.

  74. Cyborg animal. – No.

  76. Snoke turns out to be someone we knew. – No.

  80. Kylo Ren does truly evil thing. – Several.

  81. Kylo Ren angsts and can't go through with truly evil thing. – He seems to be having some reluctance about killing Rey even before Leia distracts him. Besides which, he angsts about the evil action of serving Palpatine afterward, and ultimately decides he can't do it.

  83. BB-8 comes face to face with BB-9E. – No.

  95. C-3PO states massively impossible odds. – Nope.

  96. A character realises that they are now a Sith. – Not really. Palpatine insists that Rey is a Sith but I don't think she agrees.

  98. Snoke returns. – No, but both his voice and his clones make brief appearances.

  99. Anakin returns. – Only his spirit.

  100. Palpatine/Darth Sidious returns. – At last, my boy. Long have I waited. I have been every voice you have ever heard inside your head.

    94. C-3PO (allows his memory to probably be wiped) Dec 21, 2019 at 0:05
  • I think C3-P0 gives his "I am fluent in over..." speech after he gets rebooted. Also, Pryde successfully shot Hux. Lastly, the hooded guys might just be cultists??

    @MrLister - Doesn't count. He didn't say the words, and it is even possible he meant something else (like that he is Force-sensitive).

    35. Wedge (not a shapeshifter?) was on the Falcon as a gunner at the end battle with Chewie and Lando.

    @Adamant "Wedge (i.e. any character is a shapeshifter)" is just a reference to Wedge in the Darths and Droids comic, where he is a shapeshifter. Jan 9, 2020 at 21:06
