I hope he passes a young obi wan in a cantina somewhere too

[Strat]

Jabba the hut is going to look awful though. Super CGI

[epilogue]

But, seriously, it'll take some fucking ninja creativity to cram 3PO and R2 into this fucking thing. I know there's this desire for those two characters to be the only two that appear in every SW film. But I really hope they just let that go now. Better to cut that cord sooner than later.

MAYBE WE'LL SEE REX

It wasnt all that ninja in Rogue One.

It didn't need to be. It made sense for them to be on Yavin 4 in that time frame.

I was reading about this somewhere the other day, and it sounds more and more like I am glad Disney made this move (allegedly the actor playing Han was one of the ones who was most concern, and that there were major derivations from what was supposedly an amazing script), but given the way L+M work you'd really think they would have hashed this out prior to the start of filming.

Until I get two shitty star wars movies in a row from this group (and so far I've gotten a really good and a great one) I'm happy. And by all accounts everyone is super happy with Last Jedi. It sounds like a lot of this is stylistic as much as it may be vision - a loose improvisational style of directing (which I think Favreau is also somewhat known for -at least on the Iron Man movies) vs. a more classical 'stick to the script, highly organized' approach

It seems to me, based on what I've been able to glean from various sources, Lord and Miller were just in way over their heads. They've never worked on such a huge film before. I think they got a little spooked and overwhelmed and decided to fall back on what they know: smaller set-ups and a loose, improvisational style. They felt much more comfortable making that kind of movie and so they relied far too heavily on it.

Favreau won't make those same types of mistakes if he's brought into Star Wars. He's already made hugely successful and critically acclaimed films for both Disney and Marvel.

I sincerely doubt the guys that made The LEGO Movie felt like they were in over their heads.
