Star Wars: 9 Things About The Last Jedi That Make No Sense

9. Where Are The Knights Of Ren?

Quashing the Resistance is no easy feat for Kylo Ren, even with the vast resources of the First Order behind him, so it's fair to question why he didn't call upon his band of fellow Dark Siders, the Knights of Ren, when the battle heated up in The Last Jedi.

The Knights of Ren were introduced into Star Wars canon in The Force Awakens and first glimpsed during Rey's rain-drenched dream sequence, but the mysterious collective has since been AWOL in the sequel trilogy.

It's widely believed that the Knights are made up of the Padawans Ren took with him when he fled Luke Skywalker's Jedi temple, though The Last Jedi refused to confirm or deny this. Nevertheless, Kylo's cronies are likely skilled in the ways of the Force and would have been a great asset when it comes to rebellion crushing.

Why they weren't by the villain's side throughout is a valid question, since their whereabouts were never revealed. One fan theory suggests they were hidden in plain sight as Snoke's Elite Praetorian Guards in the scene where Kylo betrays his master.

But if those crimson soldiers were indeed the Knights of Ren, would they really have turned on Kylo so quickly after he had dethroned the Supreme Leader? It makes more sense that they would have rallied to his side in support of his ascension to the position of head of the First Order.
