If you just keep asking intriguing questions, and let people assume you've asked them with an answer already in mind, but really you have no idea, it's very easy to give the impression of being a very hardworking genius while actually being a very lazy idiot

Hell even the *ending shot* of TFA is this People had their socks knocked off by how epic and dramatic it was to end the movie on this huge cliffhanger of Luke just staring at Rey and the lightsaber for a long continuous shot and then cutting to black

Rian Johnson realized, almost immediately, that there was NOTHING he could have Luke say at the beginning of the next movie that would live up to the hype of this moment It was impossible JJ completely fucked him over with that cut

So he rolled with it and made the letdown intentionally as epic as the buildup had been People called it cheeky trolling but come on he didn't have a choice

JJ being forced to open his own damn Mystery Box for once in his career was poetic justice and as we can see clearly demonstrated that trying to play the Mystery Box straight and give an actual big reveal that lives up to all this hype is basically impossible

I mean the funny bit was it wasn't forced. He could have run with Johnson's answer. It was pride

Could have played it like Spider-Verse did. Which would be craven salesmanship of merch to kids but at least in keeping with the idea that power shouldn't be in the hands of someone, but everyone.

And it'd work pretty good as a way to differentiate and expand the sequel trilogy universe and setting the stage for new works in it. Helping gather and empower Force-sensistives into a mass movement that overthrows the FO for good, leaving a less certain but better galaxy.
