@@Isaacisaperson4677 The comics aren't terribly interesting, but they do at least flesh out the "Ren" concept and explain how things develop to what they are in the sequel trilogy. Better than nothing, but not much better

4:32 That one trooper who said "#goals!!" had more dialogue than any of the actual Knights of Ren did

If they ran with the idea of Kylo Ren actually wanting to destroy the Sith and create a newer Order that's more based on the logic of Ren, I think it would have made the sequel trilogy way more interesting and Kylo Ren a much more interesting character. But instead, they just bailed and rushed the films scripts so much that it's all trash.

Knights of Ren needed red lightsabers. I want to know their former identities.

They are dark side force users. Why wouldn't Ren or Kylo Ren show then the ways of the saber? Instead they have their own weapons... Which are fine, but I think we'd all prefer if they were using red sabers. And again, with no time for character development, we know nothing about their former identities without needing to look up their lore.

Couldn't agree more. Awesome designs, with no substance underneath.

To me, the sequels do nothing but ruin the immersion. They need to be erased from canon. Any movie or show trying to fix or explain them will only ruin itself by trying and even if it is actually good, it will only make the ST even worse by contrast.

In my sequel trilogy, the Knights of Ren are new group force users created by Lord Ren. Lord Ren believes that common non-force sensitive beings are incapable governing themselves that Force-users are supreme beings destine to bring order to the galaxy. She combines the teachings of both Jedi and Sith put rejects the aspects that led to there downfall. She combine aspects of Darth Bane Rule of Two and Rule by the Strong. So every member of knight of ren must have a apprentice and to avoid power struggles she have code of honor in the Kaggath system. She also build a Cult of Personality around Darth Vader in order keep Knight of Ren in line by making them unit to accomplish Lord Vader goal of bringing order to the galaxy rather than petty squabbles.

Nothing beyond looking cool in the background of Kylo Ren posters and action figure sets

George Lucas, JJ & Disney really screwed up; Luke could of showed up, fought off the Knights of Wren in The Force Awakens. A huge battle that brings Luke back on screen like the end of Disney's The Mandorean. The flawed, stupid pointless way characters like Gen Hux, Snoke, Capt Phasma, DJ, Knights of Wren displayed how inept Disney is.

Ren is the one who wields The Ren... Except for Kylo Ren, who doesn't even use The Ren. Yeah I know the logic ain't perfect but it's still better than Palpatine not being killed by Vader.

Petition to have this become the new canon way that they are killed.

Oh, that's a good point, JJ abrams could have had the knights as the primary antagonist in "last skywalker" instead of clumsily bringing back palpatine for a lore breakingly stupid plot point. He could could have literally made the exact same movie with one of them filling the primary antagonist role and elude to things palpatine might have done before he died to fill in the blanks where needed. 🤔 I had a pretty low opinion of that movie b4, but this just really drives home the level of incompetence involved in the plots construction. They resurrected an old antagonist even though they had several on hand, ready to take the reigns. Its bad enough if you go in thinking that taking snoke off the board last movie put them in a bind, but when you realise that because the knights exist, it didn't really. That's next level bad.

Instead we got characters with no dialogue that never ended up mattering.
