TCTTS - do you think there will articles in the coming weeks or months about "what went wrong" in making this movie? Or perhaps articles focused on what Disney has done wrong since taking over the Franchise (RO reshoot, firing Lord and Miller, lack of a through-line for the main trilogy, firing Trevvorow, etc) Or is it still critically adored enough that we won't get an autopsy (for lack of a better term)?
I still don't get how there's not a small group of people that know where the story goes or has some sort of framework. If I had a billion dollar franchise to hold up, i'd want a bit more structure but maybe that's just me.
Exactly. It's crazy that they didn't have the big points planned out. You can still allow each director to do their own thing and have their own style, while still having an overall story that you have to track with. Just look at Marvel - they've done pretty damn well following that model.
like I said earlier in the thread.
I LOVE "Making of" books, and the three for the newer Star Wars movies are beautiful.
But reading the text and decision making process around ideas and concepts only makes me angrier and angrier,.
There is no strategy. There is no long term plan.
They got "lucky" with Rogue One. TFA gets some slack because it was first.
But the arrogance and idiotic story logic of Rian in the new book is astounding.
And this idiot has been given 3 more movies.
