For people who are lost disney basically changed the whole movie to sabotage JJ Abrams and Warner Brothers. They want DC to stay in Limbo a few pictures to explain pic.twitter.com/NTdO6R5KYt
If you want to do the heavy reading, here is the full breakdown of how Disney allegedly intervened in the making of The Rise of Skywalker, and what all the studio allegedly changed in the film.

One of the biggest points of outrage has been the suggestion (even from Oscar Isaac himself) that Disney killed any notion of the long-hoped-for bromance between Finn (John Boyega) and Poe (Isaac) becoming a true LGBTQA+ romance.

I was content with the movie and thought it was good, but seeing that it could have been better but was axed by The Mouse is upsetting. #ReleaseTheAbramsCut #releasethejjcut https://t.co/57bXcqdeWi

Even fans who were pleased with the theatrical cut of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker are now second-guessing their own pleasure.
prevnextDoes it Even Exist?
I’m a little skeptical that it exists, or that it has all the scenes rumored to be in it, but it couldn’t be any worse than the version of TROS that ended up in theaters #ReleaseTheJJCut#FinnPoeForever

Like with the Justice League Snyder Cut, half the argument about The Rise of Skywalker J.J. Abrams cut will be over whether it's actually even a thing.

Rian Johnson and his The Last Jedi cast had to shoulder the bulk of Star Wars fandom outrage when that film was released: Now, Disney is about to get a taste of what that's like. Hope they're ready.

Is there really a different "J.J. Cut" of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker out there? Or did Abrams and writer Chris Terrio (the guy who also wrote Batman v Superman) just make a divisive film?

This is indeed something that many fans wanted to see - and the suggestion that it could've happened (but didn't) certainly has them feeling some kind of way.

The J.J. Cut is the director's cut the world wants right now, but it's not the one it deserves. Now that director's cut of Cats, on the other hand...

This kind of conspiracy and doubt is exactly what turns happy, level-headed fans toward the dark side of fandom.
Do you believe the "J.J. Cut" of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is out there?
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is now in theaters. The Mandalorian is now streaming on Disney+.
