I mean, using an outline of his ideas to modify them is fair game. It was just an odd choice to completely throw away the sequel treatments and remake ANH because they just wanted to make money after buying LF for $4 billion.
The Force Awakens seemed at the surface level popcorn film. It was like the Star Trek reboot film. There was definitely potential with Rey and Finn, but sadly they were wasted. Also the ot characters didn’t reunite on screen at all.
Meanwhile, Ghostbusters Afterlife introduced new characters, and had the legacy characters reunite and pass the torch to the new characters. It was done well enough. It’s what TFA should have been.
That’s good for him but I just find his directing style boring. That’s all.
Definitely agree with you on having good writing and characters arcs on a show, but if it doesn’t feel like it fits within the universe or established canon, then might as well change it into an original sci fi show instead?
