I wonder how much of the schlocky stuff was Disney breathing down Johnson’s neck. The serious stuff feels more in line with his work, but the flat jokes, the children and the animals…that all screams Disney.

Read what he’s said about the film, this doesn’t seem accurate at all.

Disney/LFL’s portrayal of everything that has happened since late 2012 has been universally idyllic.

Rian Johnson isn’t LFL though. And we know about issues that have occurred on all the other sets (for various reasons). But Rian says that it was a smooth production and they let him do what he wanted to do (and he talks about wanting humor and animals and stuff like that specifically). Considering they had the film completely done three months before it was out (and then gave him free reign to a trilogy of his choosing), it’s hard to imagine there was much executive meddling.
