I actually think there was some real writing potential in depicting an edgelord poser who idolizes the trappings of a fascist past that he doesn't even fully understand, especially in the Trump era.

But then, you could drive a Star Destroyer through the gap between potential and execution in the Star Wars sequels.

He's not saying he's not willing to make the movie. He was on board, a pitch was made, it was shot down. He's saying the movie won't happen due to the higher-ups at Disney.

The sentiment is not "I'm not interested in doing that any more", but "They don't want to make the movie and there's nothing I can do with it".

The whole Darth Jar Jar thing makes the big bombad sith not as annoying.

I hate his acting and I hate his stupid ugly face. Why's he always look like a dog hiding something in their mouth?
