Somehow, Palpatine Has Returned
The key is “without losing any impact”. Star Wars whiffed pretty hard on that part.
Lucas used to be really good at “tell, don’t show”
Who is this Han Solo guy? Why, he’s the guy who can do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs!
Or how Batman stole kryptonite from Lex Luthor in the storytelling masterpiece “Batman v Superman” by auteur director Zach Snyder.
Depends. Depends very much. Show, don’t tell limits this severely.
Damn, convinced me. I guess “show don’t tell” is just a load of shite
A good writer knows when to tell and when to show
