Rian Johnson Is ‘Even More Proud’ Of Star Wars: The Last Jedi Five Years On – Empire
Instead of continuing what we got with episode 7, He wanted to deconstruct the myth of Star Wars
That extends to its controversial depiction of Luke Skywalker as a hermit who’s closed himself off from the Force, having sensed darkness in his nephew Ben Solo and accidentally pushed him further towards the Dark Side as Kylo Ren
Yeah accidentally walking up to his bed and igniting his lightsaber, Total ****en accident... 🙄
But as much as Luke begins the film in a very different place than we left him at the end of the Original Trilogy, his arc over the course of The Last Jedi – ending in his death, and the birth of a new Skywalker legend
WTF?...he already was a legend in Return of the Jedi

Im sure hes just trolling the fans at this point.
If I had hyped the Kenobi show like others did, I wouldve been disappointed. Even then, it still fell below what little expectations I had.
Much as some fans have been have been insistent about Star Wars being great again (OMG MANDALOREAN!!!), I just havent been feeling it, even after watching bits and pieces of these critically acclaimed shows. I felt more with the SW shows that came before this era.

“I’ve stayed close to [Lucasfilm's] Kathleen [Kennedy] and we get together often and talk about it,” Johnson said. “It’s just at this point a matter of schedule and when it can happen. It would break my heart if I were finished, if I couldn’t get back in that sandbox at some point.”
