Me seeing Rian Johnson is still making his trilogy after Youtube told me it was cancelled:
Just bring on a damn story editor to look for massive plot holes this time. He has good ideas but needs someone to pay attention to the small things so the movie makes some damn sense this time. I still don't know how a slow speed space chase when ships can jump to light speed got out of the first draft.
Sounds like he really enjoys his job. Definitely curious to watch Knives Out and his future works.
the fuck are you talking about?
there is a established story group at lucas film, and if they gave the greenlight then there is nothing wrong with it.
also they explain why they cant jump, holy shit.
The bad guys knew they were running out of jumps and fuel and were arrogant enough to assume they could minimize causalities on their side and just exhaust them out and pick them off rather than getting into a big fight.
Good thing Disney didn't let the tiny army of entitled haters influence their decision this time.
How many trilogies are being planned? 2 so far, one with Rian, and the other with D&D?
They going to alternate between them or something?
Regardless, I'm all for a trilogy of films helmed by the same writers that knows where establish plot threads with actually lead to. Hearing that Abrams set up plot threads with no idea where they would go in the sequels was super aggravating.

If you don't wanna see it, don't watch it. Not everything needs to appeal to you.
I'll take him over D&D anyday. I feel like people would have appreciated TLJ a lot more if it was actually a standalone story and didn't have the baggage of the other movies.
Hated TLJ but that's beside the point since he's doing a story entirely unrelated to any established story so I'm not really concerned at all. So I'm keeping a very open mind and I'm optimistic that he can create a good story in a vacuum.
Better than D&D who I know are hacks after the way they rushed to finish GOT.

Once this skywalker saga ends, it'll be fun to see where the series can go without the baggage having to tie into a 40 year old set of films. Star Wars could have a big set of variety, but it's been stuck with the same old for awhile now which has been the biggest dampener on the new films.
Hope they come up with something great.

TLJ is fantastic, and I'm excited beyond all words to see what he'll do with a blank slate. The idea of Star Wars movies that are truly new is something I've wanted since I was a kid.
Apropos of nothing, friendly reminder that The Brothers Bloom rules and people should watch it

That's not really how it's portrayed in the film, then again FO are in general portrayed as incompetent so maybe there was something resembling reasonable thought hidden underneath the stupidity portrayed by the hierarchy.
Were your expectations subverted?Me seeing Rian Johnson is still making his trilogy after Youtube told me it was cancelled:
what i find even more funny is that people keep calling "slow speed chase"
like mother fucker they are probably going like 2000km/s
yes it was, every line of hux its an indication of hubris and how they cant lose

That's slow as far as space is concerned when there's almost no resistance to slow down your acceleration.
Letting the guy who wrote and directed the best Star Wars movie off the chain to do whatever he wants for a trilogy sounds like exactly the adrenaline shot to the heart the franchise needs after Solo's stumble and whatever JJ does to wrap the Skywalker story up. But first I guess we gotta get through whatever D&D are gonna make...
It's been a while but IIRC there's literally a line about knowing they can wait them out or something especially since they can track their jump
how knives out performs critically and financially may change their evaluation of him.
the speed could be 10000km/s and the visuals be still the same on the vaccum of space.
So psyched for all his future projects

Everything is slow where space is concerned because it's fucking space. You could be going near the speed of light and it would still take you hundreds of years to get anywhere.
I'm talking more about the conversation he was having with his subordinates about the situation which was hardly that of a arrogant strategist and and more of an incompetent leader thrust upon in a less than ideal but still overwhelming position situation.
