From a marketing standpoint, a collaboration between Lucasfilm designers and Porsche designers makes little sense; but I’m sure glad they did it, as it yielded this video.

The video itself gives a pretty good look at the design process and how the teams collaborated. If you’re a fan of both automotive design and Star Wars, this is well worth the watch:
Rise of Skywalker had terrible reviews, and I went to see it expecting it to suck–but came out of the theater happy. No matter what they did with it, a group of people would hate it, but I thought overall it was pretty good. Those of you who’ve seen it, did you like it?
