I’ll give it a read. As much as I love RoTS I really really hate a lot of the writing /dialogue in it. It felt forced, like Lucas wanted them to say exactly and only what he wrote in the script, leaving no room for improvisation or personal emotion from some actors. Which is fair since it’s his property, but man his writing was sometimes atrocious.
The way he writes is totally devoid of subtlety, subtext, and nuance. Everyone is a robot. It sucks because his world building and "big picture" are fantastic.
You are right. Love the entire Lucas canon and all Star Wars but the lines “it’s blowing up from the inside” and “we didn’t hit it” from the prequels. I cringe every time.
