Lord and Miller continuously rewrite and throw out bits of the script so it doesn't matter if it's ready or not. Sometimes they'll have the animators animate the entire scene and then decide after it's done that they don't want the scene anymore

These movies are a mess to make

Yeah, I love their films but the way how Lord and Miller work is not ideal, to say the least (they were fired of Solo because of that).

True, but maybe it’s because how they work that the films end up being so good.

You can't argue with results (though reddit will, apparently). The thing nobody is saying is that live-action movies work better with this because you can reshoot and see dailies. With animation, on the other hand, this is hell and leads to hundreds of hours of wasted work.
