Rian Johnson on his reasoning for the ending of TLJ

I read this interview about Glass Onion and really liked it. I respect his process, and I love a lot of his work. But it was wrong for Star Wars, sorry. His film didn't recontextualise Star Wars, and I think he really misunderstood the material. What people have forgotten is that the very foundation of Star Wars is subversive. It could be very serious science fiction, or lofty allegory; instead it's a modern throwback to romantic action serials, but with lots of original fantasy detail. It's such a simple idea that people have forgotten what a seismic shift in the psychology of cinema it was.

Andor, if you ask me, was successful in partially recontextualising Star Wars.

I am the only one wants a serie/videogame about The imperial army? Unpopular Opinion? If Ryan Johnson was allowed to make Episode 9, it (probably) would have been better than J.J. Abrams but could also made Episode 8 be looked more fondly upon. Am I only one who likes season 3 of Mando I don't understand why people think Lucas told a good story poorly I just realized something that makes me so sad. The Mandalorian - S03E02 - Chapter 18 - Discussion Thread! In TPM when The Queen goes to The Senate for help, they decide to send someone to Naboo to check things out, but,... If Disney sells Lucasfilm, would you be OK if Episodes 7-9 were retconned? Watching Rebels for the first time, why is ok that Kanan gets sucked out into space but "Disney killed SW" when it happens to Leia? Could a solo series (if done right) undo some of the criticism people have towards Rey ? I love Daisy Ridley's portrayal and felt her story ended not well with fans how come the han solo movie has perfect balance between humans to aliens while andor doesn't? it's pretty much from the same era. Ideas for tattoo Personally when you first seen the last Jedi did you understand why Luke felt the way he left and you completely agree with his actions? Andor is the best SW since the original trilogy. Absolute top notch in every department. Please let these guys do tons of stuff going forward! Anyone else want these two back as Lando Calrissian and Han Solo? Neither could ever replace the originals but I thought they nailed their respective roles.
