I’m not sure optimistic is the right word exactly… maybe hopeful. Sadly I don’t really think it’s gonna be great but I hope it is. 100% agree about Ridley. I know Boyega burned some bridges but I would otherwise put him in the same category.

I'd say more that disney burned the bridges and Boyega brought them to light. The entire cast was done dirty by those movies and he was the only one with the backbone to say something.

That’s true. I respect his integrity, even if the industry doesn’t. It must be the most depressing thing to be a huge fan of something and then be part of it in the most disappointing way.

I love the quote though. "They ain't gonna Disney+ my ass"
