The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson has stepped up to defend the Star Wars prequels.
This all started on Twitter when Scott Malthouse prompted his followers to, “Say a genuinely nice thing about the Star Wars prequels.”
More than 20 years after the release of The Phantom Menace, George Lucas’ trilogy remains divisive, perhaps now more than ever.
Rian Johnson then jumped into the replies to share his defense of the movies, praising the storytelling and technical achievements accomplished by George Lucas.
