I have no idea about who was involved in what storyline, I'm just taking the opportunity to have a pop at Disney. its the internet innit, I'm not going to let simple facts get in the way of my pointless sniping!
I know, thats the benchmark for Disney to get themselves under! i fully expect somewhere in this latest installment for a prince and princess to finally fall in love after years of being kept apart by the evil empire, they'll break into a cheesy future No.1 hit song somewhere in space...
Thats Disney for you, can't have a traditional tagline of 'Alien race X is attacking and destroying Alien race Y leading to near annihilation". Thats far too violent and involves killing etc, completely against the ethos of Disney hence the tepid taxation storyline. Expect the franchise to cater...
