Also being publicly fired by Kennedy is the same as being done so by Spielberg.

So... yeah, this could get brutal (just ask Josh Trank).

Bingo.

Word is that Ron Howard got the damage control gig.

That is correct.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Gotta respect Howard for willing to be the guy to take the heat, at the very least.

what's the point of this movie now?

[BillyG]

The point of all Star Wars movies: $$$$$$$$$$$$

[BillyG]

I mean seriously, it was ANOTHER fucking original trilogy movie. They are never going to make anything interesting and new.

[Abraham Smashington]

BUT they had the directors that may have done something new and obviously they were and got slapped down.

[BillyG]

It was still a Han Solo film. It was always going to be a safe as hell movie we've seen before, even if that only came together in the editing room.

[FilmNerdJamie]

And that was Lucas' beef with their direction. Making it all nostalgia-porn.

[gravedigger]

Ha, if they're concerned about staying away from nostalgia porn maybe they should quit making movies about the same five people.

[Abraham Smashington]

bingo.

The only prequel film I'd have any interest in is a Darth Plagueis movie (unless we're talking about KOTOR). And I'm not even sure how well that'd work out since it's not like we can have Plagueis going all Sith lord throughout the galaxy without the Jedi knowing.

[Anderson]

I wonder if they're going to keep in the plot point that was making people shit themselves.
