Injecting new ideas into the mythos of Star Wars is great when it's coherent and doesn't conflict with already established mythos.

Ed Fagan I'd argue that their task (make a sequel trilogy) was actually rather easy. Episode 6 ended all major points of interest in both the ot and pt, leaving the sequels little baggage but lore consistency to manage. How far into the future can they set the trilogy? There was no limit. Ep6 emplied that a new republic was inevitable, but if the writers wanted to do something shortly after ep6 they could still do that. Could luke handle the responsibility of starting a new Jedi order? What changes does he make? Is he cut out to be a teacher? Will the new republic get in his way with politics, creating a conflict between Luke and Leia? Seriously, there are so many opportunities that the sequel trilogy had, it should have made writing them easy with how open it was. As for appeasing fans, hire a respected starwars writer or just get Lucas (with restraints). EZ money.

I agree 100%, and if they had only kept the extended universe, they had PLENTY of material to work with, George Lucas even says this in the interview when he sold it. It was just Kathleen Kennedy's man hating propaganda that changes EVERYTHING about the story.

A problem I have with the direction Abrams took this is that he was so set on concluding EVERYTHING. Except I don't see that as an expectation anyone had viewing this trilogy. We didn't need a conclusion to the prequels, original trilogy, AND the sequels. Those previous stories were wrapped. Done. This was the time for a new tale to be woven, for the passage of an entire universe onto a new generation with their own struggles, their own enemies, their own adventures. But Abrams and Disney didn't go for that. They wanted mass appeal that spanned every single movie and brought it all into one place. Which is ridiculous, and wound up making this final entry an absolute mess. It didn't help that this rapid churn-out rate the company forces these kinds of epics into proves only detrimental. It was massively disappointing. And leaves me with a very sour taste in my mouth towards the entire sequel trilogy.

You can’t just pull the First Order out pf nowhere and expect people to care about it in 3 movies.

Cletus Spuckler except that new Empire is more incompetent than ever and they are literally gone in a little over a year. They would have been better off setting these movies shortly after Return of the Jedi, following new heroes who battle Imperial warlords and such. Or start with the Rogue One type spin offs and Mandalorian and over time build up the First Order through them like Avengers. The same way how the Clone Wars was unavoidable for any Star Wars prequel story, establishing the rise of a new threat should have been unavoidable. Wanting to use the original cast limited things of course. It would have been hard to understand how they aged 30 years in 5-10 in universe years. And de-aging everyone would have been just as big a disaster.

"The rebel's struggling after a crushing defeat." A ridiculously successful rear-guard action and evacuation where 90+% of the rebel forces at that base escape and regroup at *another* hidden location, vs there were so few rebels left that they all fit on the Millenium Falcon with plenty of elbow room. There being only a dozen rebels left is apparently the call to arms that the galaxy needed after no one responded to their distress calls / call to arms in the previous movie.

Yeah, I'm sure Episode 9 borrowed its sloppy editing from an ancient Greek play or something. Seems legit.

The only complaint that I seem to find Abram's Star Trek movies are getting are from the ones that preferred the pre-boot William Shatner era elements and the lack of their themes in the current timeline. Despite that, The Star Trek movies are examples of what he did right. They are Sci Fi, the characters are true to their nature and the storyline is consistent. Nothing that is true in Star Wars, which messed up mostly because of the total lack of direction of Disney and Lucasfilm's. And I'm aware of the rumors such as Abrams missing the storyboard meetings, but even Rian Johnson, who recently made Knives Out which was pretty good, didn't do great, did he? Instead used his total freedom to derail any potential direction JJ would've had, forcing him to adopt the safer route. So to you and those spouting this kind of half baked contradictions, just stop riding in the coattail of generic hate. I won't defend Abrams entirely for not coming up with something better than the flustercluck. But sniffing faults in his other works that weren't as bad is also stupid af.

I'm a hardcore trekkie and my main complaint about JJ movies is that they are different subgenre of sci-fi. TOS is almost idillic and utopian in it's view of future, where JJ verse feels cold and kinda fearfull, putting the action elements ahead of sci-fi ones. In my expirience fans, that come into the fandom because of JJ, often find TOS too naive and low stakes. JJ would be better to reboot Voyager, DS-9 or ENT, that have more agressive feel, but they aren't lucrative enough for Disney. Also, LENSE FLARES

The existence of the marvel franchise kind of shoots your apologetics in the foot. It's a movie series with more movies, more directors, and a far more complex world that not only stayed relatively consistent but ended its story with a very happy fan base.

Its just sloppy work from a corporation that owns everything.

Well, we've seen the reaction from "fans" when something different was tried, aka TLJ. Yeah sure, the story arc with Finn and Rose is definitely not the best, but it still serves some purpose (find a traitorous hacker that will hurt the rebellion even more), but most of the movie is trying something different from the others, and a lot of people hated it, trying to pinpoint the most ridiculous things ever on the movie without realizing the old movies did way worse in many ways ("fuck the TLJ penguins! THEY SUCK for the 30 seconds total we see them in the movie!", meanwhile we have teddy bears destroying the most powerful army of the galaxy for 30 minutes in one of the old movies and no one blinks an eye). I still think TLJ was the best star wars movie we ever got. Something that was not all black and white, with good character development (Rogue One, while being pretty dark, which is cool, barely have any, thus making it kinda... meh IMO), and some fucking awesome build up that got completely trashed by that fan fiction we got as a last movie. I wanted to see Kylo being the master, not some puppet to a "new" guy coming out of nowhere. I wanted to see that everyone outside the Skywalkers and Palpatine had meaning in that universe, which TROS totally retconned. Getting rid of the old stuff was the best thing they could do and now we are back to it. Anyway, seeing people hating on Knives Out because it's a film made by Ryan Johnson says a lot about those fans. It's outrage culture, and it's fucking dumb. Note : I don't think TROS is a good movie, and it being canon really hurts the universe more than anything, but I still had a fun time watching it. As a fan fiction, it's fun, I don't hate it at all, I simply wish it would have been better.

This feels like you're really stretching. In the Arthur example a group of writers worked collectively to build on what they had while still trying to remain true to the heart of the story. Where as with star wars the writers are telling a conflicting narrative while constantly lifting plots and characters from the orginal in attempt to please people rather then make a new or interesting story.

Victor Coll Nuñez this is why I like The Last Jedi so much. It’s not trying to re-imagine the OG trilogy, like Force Awakens or Rise of Skywalker. Hell, the entire message of the movie was that the past is important but we can’t get so bogged down in it what we forget the present and future.

Horrific editing aside (and it is bafflingly horrific), it's the sheer bad faith with which TRoS was made that makes it not only aggravating, but downright exhausting. It spends so much time trying to "course correct" all the meaningful thematic additions that The Last Jedi imparted, that it forgets to tell a story of its own. It comes off more as an appeasing repudiation of the previous film than a singular movie experience in its own right.

So if we went back 500 years, everything is fine.

Underrated comment, this does kind of get at the point they're trying to make. Star Wars is a modern mythology, a cast of archtypes meant to be picked up and played around with, without super-tight constraint by any one rights-holder (hence the success of the EU). Where Disney went somewhat wrong with this in mind is that they used the existing pieces in ways they were never meant to be used so that they could introduce their own new pieces. Where people weren't satisfied with the prequels was that they really didn't have any recognizable cast to gravitate towards, while also being bombarded with a largely foreign aesthetic (compared to the original trilogy). You hit the nail on the head re: the Mandalorian. It's undeniably Star Wars, but Mando is like a latter-generation greek hero living his own odyssey in the shadow of foregone heroes.

It felt like they had no plan and were just winging it the whole time. Another thing that bummed me out from the start is that they had a story that was already in place that would have been great to see on screen, that being the books! If they had just used those to their benefit it would have been so great and the book had already proven to be well liked by the fan base but Disney threw them out and gave that cannon the ax in favor of getting the next big 'twist' so the fans wouldn't see what was coming which is just so stupid. The 'twist' or the surprise doesn't matter if the story can't get you care enough that it's happening. I mean, the 'twist' at the end of ROTS just had me shrugging. That whole movie was just very middle of the road for me, or well the whole trilogy was middle of the road for me. By the point I just didn't care enough for the twist to grab me in any sort of way. I don't hate the sequel trilogy but I don't love it either. It just gets a big ole Kanye shrug from me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Your argument is 'It's like an homeric poem!' with extra steps. None of your arguments address problems with the character Rey, the deus ex machina of an entire fleet of old Empire ships, Palpatine's sudden reappearance as bait for audience re-investment, Luke and Han getting short-shrift... and it took you 13 minutes to not address these issues.

To be fair, all those flaws exist in epic literature, and the point of the video is to show how Star Wars is similar to Homeric and Arthurian lore. He did say that Star Wars was filled with inconsistencies similar to epics, but that modern audiences don't just accept them. The video was not supposed to dwell on that, though. Sounds like you just like watching people trash on Star Wars.

So what I'm getting from this is: Star Wars might be crap but if we wait 1000 years then better authors will picked up the few things that were good in the movies and made something out of it? Great point mate.

You fail to see that the uproar was not only about inconsistencies with respect to the previous films, but also inconsistencies WITHIN the new films! Having a 'storm-first order trooper' Finn make a human decision to not shoot innocent people, overcome his upbringing and THEN 20 min into the film show him killing 10s of his brothers, who where also in that position due to their upbringing, while cheering, is plain ridiculous ...

"Rogue One" was a masterpiece! The best part is the spin from father/son to father/daughter. I fell that theme -- the relationship of children with their father -- is the overriding theme of StarWars.

The Mandalorian delivered more 'resonance', 'coherence', and 'warm fuzzies' in its first episode than your so-called 'franchise geeks' did in three movies.

Actually, one of my biggest complaints about The Last Jedi was the lack of consistency and familiar beats. It was neither visually or thematically similar to previous Star Wars movies which is why, for many fans, it felt like it wasn't a part of the story arc. This isn't to say it should have been a remake of previous Star Wars movies as JJ did but to ignore thematic beats without giving us visual call backs detaches it from an overall narative.

I have to think the effects of adding a personal touch to your telling of a story has a much more jarring effect when the audience hearing that version numbers in the millions within a week, and when access to the original telling is so readily available. Also, the word "borrow" is so very, very generous here.

The big thing here is that I'm pretty sure we're willing to accept new additions... with one caveat. Those new additions cannot *contradict* other, already-established bits of knowledge. The biggest problem is that there already WAS an Expanded Universe, both prequel and sequel. By tossing all of that out with the bathwater, Disney more-or-less guaranteed that the "cannot contradict what's already there" condition of our acceptance was going to fail.

I've been a star wars fan for 43 years and have put my money where my mouth is. I just feel that all the time and money I've put into this franchise an apology would be the least Disney could do but I'm not holding my breath.

That undermines the whole story of Star Wars before Disney! Or Palp telling everyone in the galaxy that he is back, instead of just telling Rey and Kylo like a smart person that he is supposed to be? Or Palp offering Kylo a fleet of Deathstar ships to conquer the galaxy... that he already conquered? Or Rey not using force to get out of quicksand? Or lightspeed skipping? Or Luke just going and killing Palp himself when he can just wield a lightsaber as a ghost? Why should any jedi even be alive? There is no downside for being a ghost. These are some complaints from the top of my head that are flaws and not epic story telling... This video is just bullshit.. Resonance?! Give me a break...

Thats why my favorite Disney/Star Wars director was Gareth Edwards Rogue One... he added to the canon without thinking he was bigger then Star Wars... he added but didn't over do-it.

I think that the main trilogy movies should stick to the script, without pushing to many boundaries or challenging opinions, and that the many spinoffs and TV shows should be the main source of new ideas to 'test the water' with the more popular themes later being incorporated into the bigger movies (as he said in the video). That way we get some freshness without alienating huge swathes of the audience.
