re: Rian Johnson says Empire Strikes Back would have been criticized if it came out today

Rian Johnson is never going to admit he’s a hack. If you listen to him, there will always be some goofy excuse for his failure. The Ghostbuster reboot crew did the same thing, screaming misogyny when the obvious truth was they made a bad movie. Rian Johnson is a goober but I don’t blame him for trying anything to get out from under the mess he made. Laying low and shutting up would probably serve him better at this point.

I’m just sad for Mark Hamill. He not only had to bend over and take it, he’s now being forced to say he liked it. Very, very sad.
