I would add for agreement: let your vision stand on its own merits rather than trying to impose it on Star Wars.
(Postmodernist arguments aside, none of us fans "own" Star Wars, or any other such property; we have no ethical right to interpret it for anyone other than ourselves, and the owners of the property are free to contradict our interpretation at any time. We are not compelled to like their work, whether or not it contradicts our preferences, but they are even less obligated to express our personal vision; in fact, they are incapable of doing so and are not accountable for doing so or not.)
