It ’s no secretThe Last Jediis one of the most polarizing films unloose in the last handful of old age , part viewers with theatre director Rian Johnson ’s various creative choices . Some felt the film was exactly what the farseeing - runningStar Warsfranchise needed to stay a practicable enterprise in the years move forward ( express excitementfor Johnson ’s fresh standaloneStar Warstrilogy ) , while others went to the other extreme and feltThe Last Jedihad ruinedStar Warsentirely beyond repair .
Many of the criticisms lobby againstThe Last Jedipurported it retconnedThe Force Awakensin rules of order to meet Johnson ’s vision , taking things in a different direction for the rice beer of surprising the audience with expectation subversion .

While onLight the Fuse : A Mission : Impossible Podcast , Brandon and Markey talked aboutThe Last Jediand expressed their tone on that movie ’s human relationship withThe Force Awakens :
Brandon : " I feel very much like , in hindsight , that the trilogy , the last part of the trilogy , needed one vision . "
Markey : " I could n’t fit in more . It ’s very foreign to have the second film … consciously undo the storytelling of the first film . I ’m regretful , that ’s what it felt like . "
It ’s a fairly bluff program line to claimThe Last Jediaimed to"consciously undo " The Force Awakens . Johnson ’s approach emphatically did n’t work for everyone as he thought outside the box on some patch developments , but a case can be made he was trying to build onThe Force Awakensin his own unparalleled elbow room . wrench like Snoke ’s death were n’t needs in demarcation with audience predictions , though on unaired analysis , none of them seem to negate the information relayed inThe Force Awakens . While Abrams doubtlessly had his own ideas for where the trilogy could go ( at one point , he wanted to re-introduce Palpatine inForce Awakens ) , he played up his infamous mystery story boxful and was advisedly obscure on element such as Rey ’s parentage and why Luke went into deportation . That give Johnson the exemption to do what he desire , which turned out to be a blessing and a curse for the sequel trilogy .
