So let me get this straight. They release a movie that many call a rip off of the first Star Wars, then decide that it's a good idea to release the next one with a dark theme... ala Empire Strikes Back?

Great idea.

If they really paid attention to the seeming inconsequential criticism of TFA ripping off ANH, then they have a lot of chance to write something different to The Empire Strikes Back, if that is how Episode VIII is going and if they want to.

 

I'll crack up if cardonite makes an apperance.
