Since we're talking about Star Wars: at its heart, Star Wars is about, in rank order: airplanes, being friends with A Creature, magic, martial arts, and the alienation of parental affection, which is all to say, give the franchise to Miyazaki and we might finally get a good one.

Do you mean Hayao Miyazaki or Hidetaka Miyazaki? This is important. Very distinctive vibes

BRILLIANT Also, there’s no “might” about that. He would do exactly one, and not only would it be the best Star War of all — past, present and future — but it would also be considered a masterpiece of cinema in its own right.

It’s all a preadolescent boy’s dream - which is why all the fanboys lose their shit when a woman or girl appears on screen with a speaking role. End of.

A critic is someone who failed at their chosen profession, and all they have left is to shit on others' work so not to have to face their own failures.

Miyazaki; famously known for hewing close to the source material. In other words I agree. (Not cause I actually have a problem with current SW. i just don't care enough to care to see the same thing.)
