No one cared so they gave him free reign.
(And once again I'm a huge fan of the director.) In TLJ it wasn't important what the studio wants (but we do have 6 of 8 writers on staff who are female. FOR THE FIRST TIME 6 MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS THAT ARE FEMALE!) The head of the studio came out and said that "THE FORCE IS NOW FEMALE." So, you are a writer/director taking this project over which just happens to be the biggest one of your life. What do you do?

I love Star Wars movies.
I don't give a shit how they got the plans. At all. Not even a little bit. I can't think of a reason to make me watch a film I would give a less shit about. Just me. Now you've mind ****ed me.

You get the biggest project of your life while Kennedy is making her stamp on SW's.
And she's already dick-smacked other directors that didn't fit to her liking. You do the math...

I'm ok with not knowing how it ends. You are talking to the only person you'll ever meet that's never owned a camera or a cell phone. Quote:

I still dont think TLJ was that bad. I'm not saying it was great, but in my opinion its not the total shit fest some think it is. I'm not here to try and change people's minds though.
Rogue One though... You need to see that one. Dane is absolutely right about the best trilogy is now R1, ANH, and ESB. Rogue One is the star wars movie none of us knew we needed. Think Saving Private Ryan set in Star Wars rather than WWII. We all know the mission will result in certain death, but they seem to acknowledge we know this, and don't try to act like its a surprise or twist no one survives. I have watched it countless times and I love it. The score is meh over all, but is great when it needs to be.

Rogue One is better than all of the prequels and probably better than TFA.

It might be the most important film in the series, especially considering the fact that if all of those people didn't sacrifice their lives in the hope of saving billions of people, the Empire would have ruled the galaxy, with no hope of the Rebellion destroying the Death Star.

By this team last year I had seen Rogue One 7 or 8 times in the theatre. I saw TFA 10 times in a theatre. I promised to take my youngest daughter to it (first two time she couldn't go), so we will probably go tonight...but I find myself just meh about it....torn between loving all things Star Wars and wanting a new storyline, and being disappointed in TLJ. Still have hopes for Solo though...don't let me down Ron Howard ![]()
