In retrospect (back to Hobbs & Shaw), the running jokes about GoT were really odd. There were several. What was up with that?
I was also very disappointed after they got all those traditional weapons out. I thought that was going to set up some cool fights, but the big battle was a bit of a mess. It did make me understand the Return of the Jedi in a way. I never liked the Ewok ending but I get it now as sort of reaction against tech, quite ironic given the CGIness of both franchises. Lucas originally want it to be a Wookie battle (Ewok is Wookie spelled sideways) but he didn't have the budget or the tech. The franchise went back for it in Revenge of the Sith, but it was played out by then.
F&F: H&S is so thought provokin...
