I'm crying over here. That seriously made me laugh! Imagine Zoolander in this!!!!!! They should do a crossover. hahahahahaha
I've always been after the writing. Always the writing. If it's good, great. If it's bad, I'm inclined to speak my mind about it. Whether Lucas did it or Rian Johnson, or Chris Terrio, whoever. If the idea works, I'm on board. Lucas is no saint, but neither is Johnson, or Filoni, or Favreau. George has his strengths, but he's by no means perfect. I was just trying to explain perhaps why people are more inclined to give him a pass. I'm not suggesting he deserves one if his idea sucks. Same with Favreau or whoever writes these stories. I never understood the idea that Filoni was the "savior" of Star Wars either, so I don't want to be lumped into that camp.
I never fault the actors, the set designers, the art department, the effects department, the costume dept. Those people are just doing their job. To bring the written word to life. It always come down to that. The written word. It always has and it always will. So if an actor gives a crumby performance, or a costume design is lame, or a chase scene is boring, that's at least 95% the writing.
And with this comment, you win the internet for the day!
