Nice to see someone giving actual constructive criticism on these films. I have come to find that my main problem thus far is that neither film is particularly risky. Sure Rogue One showed us hints of moral ambiguity and a Rebellion that wasn’t fucking around but that is a pill that can be easily swallowed. I’m hoping The Last Jedi either expands the lore exponentially or changes some aspect of the story indefinitely. Part of the reason I came around to idea of Disney making these films is the prospect of seeing new things that expand the universe exponentially, seeing weird and interesting concepts they can introduce in these new stories that are still in the spirit of the OT and above all else, new and innovative ways of storytelling. I haven’t really gotten that thus far.
