The title refers to Kylo Ren.

It used to be Skywalker but one day at school he was sitting alone at lunch so the lunch monitor changed his last name to Solo.

The real travesty in all of this is that they keep pumping out bad sequels but we've had viable at-home VR systems for three years and still don't have an X-Wing remake or competent lightsaber game, what the gently caress are they waiting for I might be dead before they get there

several of those movies are about specific contexts of the age/social place of the protagonists, had death or other fixed ending of the protagonist, was a generic typecasting of the main star and thus needed no sequel to get another performance, did actually have a sequel or further protagonist appearance in another movie, or in the case of pulp fiction needed no sequel specifically because it was a series of loosely related stories presented separately instead of a single narrative. 4 of them that i know of either had sequels already or their sequels hit production problems

other than that yeah i dont see why they didnt make titanic 2 by now

if either the antagonist or protagonist ends the movie in just about the same condition they started in then your movie is primed for a sequel (the antagonist predator species or the protagonist john mcclane)
or if some things changed you can start the sequel with how those things reverted back before going straight to formula (ghostbusters 2 recapped how the business failed and venkmans relationship fell apart)
