Star Wars: The Last Jedi was a critical and commercial hit but it didn't strike the right chord with a lot of fans who were disappointed by some of the decisions made by writer and director Rian Johnson.
At this point, those issues have been talked to death but that hasn't stopped many fanboys continuing to attack the filmmaker and some even got together to try and raise money for a bizarre-sounding remake. As it turns out, star Oscar Isaac supports that latter decision and has now shared his thoughts on what those who didn't like The Last Jedi should do about it in a recent interview about the movie.
"What I think is really special about the whole thing — particularly for people that really didn’t agree with where the story went — is that it’s often a great inspiration to do your own stuff," he explains. "Obviously, making your own Star Wars movie is a bit of a tough challenge, but at least from a narrative standpoint maybe you make your own thing and then show what you would want. Make what you would want to see." It's hard to argue with that but it sadly hasn't quite gone that way.
After all, shortly after the movie was released, an edited version titled The Last Jedi: De-Feminized Fanedit which reduced the role of female characters was "released" on Pirate Bay and if you can't see why that's problematic, God help you! For now, fans will have to hope Episode IX manages to deliver.
