      Disney: we need you to start a star wars trilogy. The first movie should be an original, action packed movie.

      JarJar: I can make you an action packed movie!

        Disney: we need you to start a star wars trilogy. The first movie should be an original, action packed movie A shot for shot remake of the original with a few mysteries to keep people interested. No, the answers to the mysteries don’t matter, no we don’t need to outline the trilogy, we’ll figure it out as we go along.

        JarJar: I can make you an action packed movie. Stop! I can only cum so hard!

        Nah, Disney hasn’t asked for anything to be original in a decade or more.

        Edit: four hours later and I just realized The Force Awakens is already about a decade old. 🙃

    I’m still surprised Hamil went along with it. They couldn’t have done it without him and the whole way they treated Luke was bullshit to make Rey look better

    Disney: Well, we may have made a big misstep with that first movie, let’s get a different director to come in and make sense of everything to continue the story in a coherent manner without making it seem like a blatant cash grab by doing a complete retelling of the second movie.

    RJ: I’ll move the giant walker fight on the white planet from the opening battle to the ending battle

    Disney: you’re hired!

        It’s kind of meaningless when it’s sandwiched between 2 absolute abominations.

          TRoS i totally agree.

          TFA i think is lovely and it was a look at what making a modern SW movie could be, but totally fails at originality. that ends up hamstringing the sequels, sadly.

          Eh, as far as I’m concerned the series just ends with TLJ. A bit of a downer, but by resetting the playing field to ANH’s dynamic of ragtag rebels vs empire it emphasizes the cyclical nature of violence and resistance in the Star Wars universe. It’s a good enough conclusion on its own.
