Dude has even been on record after the fact stating his pleasure about all the people who are mad about VIII.

I’d even personally put money down on what Kermit said about VIII not aging well. From a pacing, plot, and writing standpoint, the thing is a mess. And I actually didn’t mind the film all that much. However, I’d say it’s very forgettable, and I really only enjoy the parts with Rey, Kylo, and Luke. I also seriously like the Yoda portion even though I’m thoroughly bothered with Yoda’s portrayal through dialogue and tone. To me, VIII feels like the JJ Abrams Star Trek movies. Fun and in many ways good action movies, but awful Star Trek movies. And there is VIII, a fun and in many ways good action movie, but an awful Star Wars movie. It’s the least watched of the Star Wars movies I’ve seen other than the prequels. Can’t wait to see how IX deals with it. Genuinely excited for it.
