    I feel really bad for Rise of Skywalker, it was really in an impossible position.

    First, Last Jedi painted them into a fucking corner. It was like nobody told Johnson he was making the middle part of a trilogy.

    Second, what little structure the trilogy had was 7 was about Solo, 8 was about Luke, and 9 would have been about Leia, but then Carrie Fisher up and died. :(

    They had to really scramble on the 3rd one and losing the original writer/director didn’t help. Abrams had to come in after 8 shit the bed and Fisher died and tried to make the best of it…
