      Ok, you may have heard this from me before (you know, I'm that old guy who saw the first Star Wars back in 1977, the one who was only 15 years old and loved it!).
      The point I want to make here is that for those who loved the first trilogy and became fans of it, going and seeing the Prequals was incredible and fantastic! We waited for a long time and it did not disappoint us!
      So how about those who disliked and hated the Prequals... well, the truth is that those people were never Star Wars fans!
      I was there in the theater and saw how the fans just loved them (but the media didn't nor did the paid critics!).
      I find it depressing but interesting that all of that is now "totally forgotten" and the fans are the ones who are blamed for the "hate" the movies got!
      Not so!
      Star Wars always has had people that disliked them (even way back in 1977)... I know because there were no SW fans back in 1977 but I was there, and so were many who eventually became the "fandom"!
      Did we loved everything about them, no we all liked different parts but there was no hateful or toxic fans... Instead, all of the big movie studios in Hollywood hated Lucas because he got all of the profits and they got nothing (some distribution money perhaps... but nothing else!)
      That's the why for all the hate towards the Prequals, the big studios did not see a dime out of them and then created the fake narrative of toxic fans we now hear about!
      The truth is that Star Wars fans loved the Prequals, filled the cinemas to the brim on every release, played the many video games that were linked to them and continued to support the franchise even after George Lucas had become sick of Star Wars and walked way for some years to do "other things" like... Indiana Jones (or Howard the duck?).

If I met one of these two I think I’d genuinely start panicking and not know what to say! I was begging for a force ghost cameo from them in the sequels.

    They're both so relaxed in this interview, which makes their answers so much better. I've watched quite a few of their press interviews and most are so forced. Everyone tries to be funny and thinks they're original, but Ali always is. The opener with the shirt, the nob joke and the question about how many "hello there" openers they had, really seem to put them at ease. Same with the music questions, just to relive that feeling of hearing it.
    You can tell Hayden's moods especially, it really shows on his face. In most interviews he is very quiet, Ewan does most of the talking, but here he looks so happy, with loads of really great answers.
