Just gotta get this out there; I really can't share with people's exitement about a Taika Waititi-directed Star Wars movie. I think he's great, but like, remember when Lord & Miller were fired by parted ways with Disney mid-filming because their version of Solo became "too comedic, too meta, too improv-heavy"? AKA, too "Lord & Miller? Like, these guys made 21 Jump Street, The Lego Movie, and went on to make Into the Spider-Verse! That's what their movies are like! AND, might I add, not too dissimilar from Waititi's directing style.
But no, I'm sure that Disney would be more than happy to give Taika Waititi free rein, and that his movie won't end up a written-by-committee, studio-interference-laden mess at best, or a completely different director's poor attempt at salvaging it into an unassuming and inoffensive tribute to our Disney-overlords at worst.

you may not be able to control the plot of your life, or the characters in it, or even the genre, but you can control one thing: the soundtrack. grab some headphones and make it a banger.
Being a kid was so fucking funny we’d just go around lying to each other’s faces constantly to impress each other one of my classmates told me he was the first person to visit the sun and when I asked him what it was like to prove he was lying he said he didn’t remember because they sent him there when he was just a baby and to this day the mental image of NASA launching an unsupervised baby into the sun still makes me crack up
I did it!
