Those rumours really don't bother me.
They took extra takes. Confusing to the actors, sure, but shouldn't affect the end product.
Harrison is a unique personality to imitate. Sounds like Ehrenrich got it down after the coaching and they probably would've re-shot any scenes that stuck out in an awkward way or was inconsistent with the rest. Howard won't pump out something like that.
I'm not too thrilled however that Disney has a "style" that they're trying to get their directors to align with/work within. I'm not a fan of the sort of humor being integrated and the awkward timing of it especially in episodes 7 and 8, it comes across forced and too evidently scripted for all-age appeasement, and think it's out of line with the essence and tone of the originals, which is really what they should be striving for. I'm still waiting for a film that doesn't just look like SW, but has the recognizable spirit of it as well. RO was the closest thing to it, but still wasn't "it". I don't expect this to be either since it was produced prior to the backlash and underperformance of TLJ, where Kennedy and co. probably finally clued in that they may need to make some adjustments. But the awesome all-star cast has me intrigued. Too much talent there for it to be a waste of time. Should be fun at the very least.
