Director Rian Johnson defends Star Wars: The Last Jedi's goofy sense of humor: 'Anyone who thinks that slightly goofy humor does not have a place in the Star Wars universe, I don't know if they've seen Return of The Jedi.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson defends the film's goofy humor, which proved controversial for some fans. Released in 2017, Johnson's film marked the second entry in Disney's sequel trilogy, but the eighth film overall in the Luke Skywalker saga. The movie picked up after the surprising ending of J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 2015, which saw the return of Mark Hamill's Luke.
"Everyone has a different take. I know there are Star Wars fans who somehow think that Star Wars was a serious thing, like the Batman movies or something. I was so young that when I watched Empire Strikes Back, it had this deep, profound impact on me because it was terrifying, because I was just young enough to not experience it as watching a Star Wars movie, but to have it feel like too real.
