I’m just not as calm as you Truxi. I look at what they did with TLJ with disbelief (and like many fans, take offence) If they wanted to experiment with Rian Johnson then it would have fit better in a stand-alone film. Instead we got stand-alone content in the middle of a trilogy, giving JJ a real problem to complete the story in one film.
If Lucas had still owned it, yeah it would have stagnated on the film front but the EU (Expanded Universe) was going strong. There is an argument for however good TFA and Rogue One were, were they enough to balance how bad TLJ, Solo and Resistance were?
But again I’m getting dangerously close to igniting that argument that has become so toxic on social media, so I will just say in conclusion, that in my view, not catering enough for the OT fans in what is already a fractured fanbase could be a problem.
Now, come let’s talk about what the queues are going to look like in week 1
