I would like to point out that should the supercut ever leak (hint hint), that it was NOT Joe's story, but a bastardization of it.

So it got Rise of Skywalkered? Competing versions resulting in a creative Frankenstein that none of the creators are satisfied with?

I don't know what happened with rise of Skywalker.

The skinny seems to be that JJ had his original rough cut which Kathleen Kennedy hated (because it undermined or undid a bunch of stuff from The Last Jedi, which Is the film KK had the most creative input on). So KK started overruling a lot of JJs decisions, and all kinds of friction started. Meanwhile it was getting tougher and tougher to ignore the downward slide that Star Wars has taking under KK, so Bob Iger himself got involved and started making creative calls that neither JJ or KK liked.

Oh. So nothing like Destiny then. If the producers had stepped in and forced Jason Jones to make decisions, the mess could have been avoided.
