yeah? i imagine it was probably because test audiences unanimously said, "who the fukk are these people and why the fukk should we care about this?"The end Vader scene came up during reshoots and was filmed just a few months before release
actually i'm sure Disney just pussed out and forced them to add more of the Skywalker stuff to the movie. original take was probably better, i remember the first trailer having shyt that didn't make it to the movie. every friggin production has had tons of second guessing involved. then again, it must have worked first time out b/c no one talks about shyt from Rogue One except Vader slashing dudes up
