Sounds amazing.

It's going to be 3 hours of him learning that the high ground is important (unless you're hanging over a pit)

Just you wait.

It the prequel's defence, Obi Wan knew from experience that you could surprise a cocky opponent from the low ground, because he did it to Maul. Thus he was 100% ready for it when Anakin tried it.

The cartoon series was far better than any of the prequel movies. There was a 3 or 4 episode arc I remember where the Clones were fighting on some planet, it was incredibly dark and more harrowing than most actual war movies.

Colin Trevorrow is no longer directing Star Wars: Episode IX.

Lucasfilm and Disney announced the exit Tuesday.

"Lucasfilm and Colin Trevorrow have mutually chosen to part ways on Star Wars: Episode IX. Colin has been a wonderful collaborator throughout the development process but we have all come to the conclusion that our visions for the project differ. We wish Colin the best and will be sharing more information about the film soon," read a Lucasfilm statement.

Rumors of Trevorrow’s departure have dogged the project since early June, weeks before the opening of The Book of Henry, his thriller that was panned by critics and failed at the box office.

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that script issues have continued to be the continuing sore spot with Episode IX’s development with Trevorrow having had repeated stabs at multiple drafts. In August, Jack Thorne, the British scribe who wrote the upcoming Julia Roberts-Jacob Tremblay movie Wonder, was tapped to work on the script.

Sources say that the working relationship between Trevorrow and Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy became unmanageable. Kennedy, who had already been through one director firing/replacement on the Han Solo spin-off, was not eager for a sequel and tried to avoid this decision.

In June, Phil Lord and Chris Miller were fired from the Han Solo standalone with only a couple of weeks left of scheduled production. The two were later replaced by Ron Howard, who is finishing out production of the project in London now.

Trevorrow's departure now marks the fourth time directors have been replaced on a Star Wars project - Tony Gilroy took over from Gareth Edwards for massive reshoots on 2016's Rogue One. Josh Trank was taken off of a Star Wars anthology film after reports arose about the director's disturbing behavior on the set of Fox's Fantastic Four reboot. Like Trank, Trevorrow's exit at least occurs before the movie has started shooting.
