>That was the first thing I had to figure out. Why is Luke on that island? And I didn’t have any answers. But it’s not like you can just pick anything you want out of the air. I grew up having a sense of who Luke Skywalker is. It guides you to a very specific path. I know he’s not hiding on the island. I know he’s not a coward. He must be there for a reason that he believes in. You’re finding a path forward, but there end up being fewer choices than you think.

He was propped up as a 'white male' face of the man who killed Luke and Star Wars. Even though it was Kathleen 'Snoke' Kennedy all along.
Holy shit this guy has no idea what he's doing

This is a good one
>The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson killed off Snoke as it was deemed necessary to advance Kylo Ren with a compelling set-up for Episode IX. When asked if he ever planned to elaborate on Snoke's back-story, Johnson replied, "It would have stopped any of these scenes dead cold if he had stopped and given a 30-second speech about how he's Darth Plagueis. It doesn't matter to Rey. If he had done that, Rey would have blinked and said, 'Who?' And the scene would have gone on. [pause] And I'm not saying he's Darth Plagueis!"[25]
He doesn't even fully commit to killing off Snoke. He admits that Snoke can easily return and how it would introduce a new dynamic between him and Kylo. I mean seriously what the hell.

Of course it would have stopped the scenes dead cold. That would be a major twist/revelation for the audience, potentially powerful in the hands of a good director and not a fucking hack like you.
They really have no plan for this trilogy. This is so bad.
That's from Kylo's version of events. Why are people making it out to be the real Luke flashback?
This does put things into perspective and I do kind of feel for the guy. It's not his story. But this only leads me to the question: Why did they pick this guy? Did he say, hey I want to make a Star Wars movie but I don't know what it's about?
