But yeah, RJ and weirdly enough Trevrorow were the only ones with an actual vision of what they wanted to do. Force Awakens was clunky and unoriginal and Rise of Skywalker felt like they were making it up along the way.
But yes, I remember that line got a genuine laugh. JJA is great with character intros.

>>212812430 (OP) Lucas's plans were shit. The cartoons are shit. Solo was shit. Remixing the original trilogy at least presented a novel interpretation and yknow what? That's good enough, the second he steered away from Flash Gordon the whole series went to shit
>>212812430 (OP) >beautiful, passionate, creative, sincere Very accurate way of describing what was good about the flawed prequels which the sequels lacked. They may have been poorly written and narratively confused but they are also all of those things you mentioned. They were an auteur's artistic vision if nothing else. Even the most obstinate of OT boomers ought to recognize this.
