Rian Johnson unironically wasted 3 years of his career on this

>user Johnson unironically didn't double read his reply

How will it feel OP...imagine it...an hour into the movie.

Luke is on a boat on the water world planet. Suddenly out of nowhere JEDI DOG gets into the boat.

Why?

>could be directing Better Call Saul episodes
>choose Star Wars instead
Worst career choice?

>could be directing his own ideas
>sells out instead

Actually it's not really a waste. If he makes Disney a tonne of cash, it would be much easier for him to get more creative control in other big budget movies.

?

It's literally the best opportunity of his career you stupid faggot. He's never going to get to make this big of a movie ever again.

>"yeah ever since the first second I got the job I knew what the name would be"
>most amateur, redundant, cliched title to ever grace modern cinema

Fucking retard.

>unironically being named Rian

wait, did he choose the name?

>Actually it's not really a waste. If he makes Disney a tonne of cash, it would be much easier for him to get more creative control in other big budget movies.

I hear that argument all the time and is that ever really the case? I guess Nolan but look at all the other directors that churned out tentpole crap. Are they being given big budgets for passion projects? Jon Favreau, who literally made the blueprint for the MCU, had to self fund Chef. Sure he can get a big budget to make the fucking Jungle Book but that's just more tentpole bullshit.

These films don't do anyone any favors except for studio heads.

Maybe not the best example, but it definitely worked for Spielberg.

The game has changed. Studios don't take risks no more.

>ironically wasting 3 years of your career

What does this even mean?

>unironically

lol u faggot that's not a word and it doesn't make sense

Spielberg didn't make pre-determined studio tentpoles though.

and who's saying rian will be making studio tentpoles exclusively? i'm just saying that he'll probably have more freedom creatively in the future if he makes disney lots of money

>I understood this reference

>his own ideas

Kathy Kennedy let him read The Force Awakens script and asked him, "So what happens next?" which blew him away. He was given free reign to write TLJ.

yes, he even said it was the name he had in mind since the first draft and fought with Lucasfilm executives to keep it

I highly doubt they gave him free reign to do whatever he wants. Disney will cut whatever they don't approve of, possibly making a more bland and forgettable film

>Kathy Kennedy let him read The Force Awakens script and asked him, "So what happens next?

please be joking

STOP PUTTING BRIGHT BORDERS AROUND IMAGES TO ATTRACT ATTENTION

>movie will make at least a billion dollars
>will almost certainly be seen as better than TFA
>will make him an A list director overnight if it's even half decent
>"wasted 3 years of his career"

Why does star wars upset Sup Forums's autistic man children so much?

please be true

>Rian Johnson
Born: December 17, 1973 (age 43 years), Maryland
Height: 5′ 6″

>December 17
really makes you think

At this point in the game any star wars movie will make a ton of cash and it's extremely difficult for any writer to claim that it is his doing.

Apparently Lucasfilm wanted to call ep 8 "Retaliation of the First Order"

>I understood this reference
I understood this reference

The point is that for a manlet there is no wasting of time because he has nothing worthwhile to do anyway.

You forgot that he will take 10% of the global box office plus his salary

>I understood this reference
>I understood this reference
What did he mean by this?

>it doesn't make sense
It makes perfect sense.

Hopefully it destroys his career for contributing to the scrounge of cinema.

They wanted to call it Knights of the Old Renpublic
