I hope Rian Johnson makes Ep 8 darker, but it should still feel like a Star Wars movie too. I'm not sure if what Oscar Isaac says about it feeling like an independent film is a good thing or not.

As long as it's good, I don't care what it feels like.

Everything the Star Wars leaks page on Reddit keeps posting makes the movie seem pretty weird. Hopefully he doesn't frick it up.

This doesn't please me. They should have gotten someone with more credentials and at least an idea of how to direct a big budget film. It needs to feel like a Star Wars movie, not like an independent film set in a Star Wars universe.

Independent films skew toward socially/culturally liberal movies. That will fit right in with the social justice warrior path established in TFA.

Did he say independent?

That could mean anything. If he had said "indie," I'd be concerned.

Maybe it will be like the Fly episode of Breaking Bad. Nothing happens and all the critics pretend it's the best episode yet.

This doesn't make me feel good but to be fair ESB was the most dialogue driven and complex of the 3 originals and most consider it the best "film".

Yep, Poe/Finn love scene for sure.

This movie will be a disaster. I will not watch.

I think what he means is it's smaller in scale. I think a large portion of the movie will simply focus on Rey and Kylo's training with Luke and Snoke respectively, while the First Order goes after the Resistance, as the rest of the galaxy falls into chaos with no more central government.

Really, I don't know how they're going to do an opening title crawl unless they start the movie with characters that had nothing to do with TFA plot, because it clearly has to take off the second the last one left us. So in that manner, it will be like Empire, but I don't expect any grand battle in the movie.
