Writer-director Rian Johnson endorses a detailed defense of Star Wars: The Last Jedi. It's been almost five years since the middle movie of the Star Wars sequel trilogy was released. For the most part, Lucasfilm has moved on from it and the Skywalker Saga as a whole, with an attempt to focus on other characters or time settings with a string of Disney+ shows.
Released in 2017, The Last Jedi was the sequel to J.J. Abrams'Star Wars: The Force Awakens. While the 2015 film explicitly set up Johnson's sequel with a cliffhanger, Johnson's story made several unexpected turns, which should have been a great thing — after all, the space opera franchise is known for its many plot twists. Instead, The Last Jedi divided Star Wars fans perhaps more than any modern blockbuster has done to its fandom, garnering a wide spectrum of opinions. Some dub it the best of Disney's Star Wars venture, while others deem it the worst of the entire franchise. Johnson has since distanced himself from the discourse surrounding the movie, focusing on other projects like his Knives Out sequels.

The film's director prefaces the tweet by acknowledging he hasn't «touched this stuff in years,» but the original author's breakdown of the blockbuster's most common criticisms is just too good to pass up. Check out Johnson's endorsement of Young below:
