Original sentence: Graeme McMillan of The Hollywood Reporter felt the decision to make an army of clones is a "softening of the Star Wars own mythology", though the article later corrected that not all troopers in the franchise were clones.He praised the decision of The Force Awakens to explicitly move away from clone troopers as bringing "much-needed moral complexity" to the film's conflict.Noting that the films never specify that the clone troopers are replaced by regular soldiers by the original trilogy, he believed that the idea of soldiers who are created solely for war and are little more than machines "sanitizes the war of the franchise's title"
