Topic	Worst moment of the Star Wars sequels for me was when Chewbacca... spoilers
s0nicfan 11/22/21 3:46:43 PM #29:	SSJ2GrimReaper posted... you can really tell they had no general direction for the sequel trilogy and just threw stuff at the wall and hoped it stuck They actually did. JJ Abrams had an outline for all 3 movies that he shared with Johnson in the hopes that he could pull a few threads through the middle movie, addressing most of the cohesion complains from the finished product. Abrams even made modifications to Episode 7 based on requests from Johnson. For whatever reason, Johnson tossed those notes and then (intentionally or not) took every plot thread opened up from the first movie and shit all over them. https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/star-wars-rian-johnson-scrapped-jj-abrams-episode-viii-script/ Ridley revealed to Geek Le Mag that J.J. Abrams, who directed and co-wrote The Force Awakens, also wrote scripts for Episode VIII and IX before Rian Johnson and Colin Trevorrow jumped in to direct the sequels. *Heres what I think I know. J.J. wrote Episode VII, as well as drafts for VIII & IX,* Ridley said. Then Rian Johnson arrived and wrote TLJ entirely. I believe there was some sort of general consensus on the main lines of the trilogy, but apart from that, every director writes and realizes his film in his own way. Exactly how much of the Sequel Trilogy was outlined in the early days of development by Abrams and the Lucasfilm Story Group remains a bit hazy, but we do know that Abrams and Johnson collaborated when it came to bridging the gap between The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. Johnson, for example, asked Abrams to send R2-D2 on the mission to find Luke Skywalker instead of BB-8 so that the astromech droid could play back Leias original message to Obi-Wan Kenobi for Luke in The Last Jedi. Rian Johnson and J. J. Abrams met to discuss all of this, although Episode VIII is still his very own work, Ridley explained of Abrams involvement with The Last Jedi. I believe Rian didnt keep anything from the first draft of Episode VIII. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
