How does this make her a good candidate to direct a Star Wars movie? Don’t plan on watching it but it still irks me that they said they got rid of EU because they wanted a clean slate which is their right but then proceed to cherry pick and bastardize stories like this Rey movie taking Luke’s story as well as the Ahsoka show. Very dumb to say you have no source material after not using what Lucas gave you and not using the EU as a template for a movie
I mean, that's the idea- EU is still there for them to crib from, all they have to do is play dumb and they can give the royalties that belong to a bunch of fucking white males to their more diverse, new writers (well, a fraction of it)
That’s true. They bastardize it just enough to not have to pay royalties. They ripped off Dark Empire for episode 9 but it was different enough.
And jedi prince. Anyone who tries to trash the EU should be reminded the new movie series adapted two of its worst books devoid of the good ideas the writers had.
And I would wager that the Rey movie will blend elements of NJO and Jedi Academy. And the Ahsoka show looks like Heir to the Empire with Ahsoka playing Luke’s role. All Disney had to do was not crap all over Luke’s character.
