I guess I don't understand why they feel the need to go with different directors for each movie. Was it just not possible for them to secure one for the last two movies? personally, I'd prefer to see one director for all three but JJ always does this shit where he directs one movie or episode and hands it off to somebody else.

The OT had three different directors. I'm glad that Abrams isn't back. |

I think the secrecy is pretty silly. I'd rather know the plot so that I can sit back, relax and enjoy the movie instead of having to process the story while watching the film. That's what made Rogue One so enjoyable for me. I knew the basic premise and of course, the outcome, so I could sit back and take it all in on the first viewing. |

Plus, I will certainly see it more than once in the theater, so viewings two and on I can sit and analyze, but the first time is for the little kid I used to be so he can be awestruck and full of wonder again. |

I say that, mostly to give you shit, because I know you are well intelligent enough to walk into a Star Wars film cold and be perfectly capable of "getting it". I rather enjoy hearing some of the spoilers... to a point. Like if the spoiler is the ending of the 6th Sense level, for example, I don't want that spoiling the entire setup. That robs the entire premise of the story and the build up to the reveal. Otherwise, I'm cool with getting leaks about potential plot points.

As I mentioned in another thread, I read The Empire Strikes Back novel two months before the film was released, as well as ROTJ, and the experience was much better, for me, as opposed to going in blind. My expectations were set too high for TFA but if I had been spoiled, I think it would have been easier to enjoy. |

I may be in the minority, but I was very underwhelmed by Jurassic World and wouldn't mind at all of Trevorrow were removed. And that's not even factoring in Book of Henry.
