Don't Sell Your Story, Just

Making Movies Was More A Reaction To Not Being Chosen For Sports. Other Kids Were Out There Playing At Whatever; I Was Off Making Something Blow Up And Filming It, Or Making A Mould Of My Sister's Head Using Alginating Plaster.

Well, You Know, Going Into Any Project, Especially With A Fan Base As Vocal And Passionate As Something As "star Wars," You Will Have Groups Of People Who Will Find Issues With Whatever It Is You're Doing. But Our Job Was To Tell The Best Story We Could About Characters That We Loved, And We Knew That We Needed To Go Backwards To Go Forwards, And We Needed To Go Back To A Feeling And A Place And A Time.
