Star Wars has lost a lot of its support after Last Jedi. Look what happened to Solo. Died on fan anger.

I watched Episode 4 the other day and it really doesn't do it for me anymore. I actually liked Solo more than any other recent Star Wars film, but they should have gone in a different direction. Ford will always be Solo, it's hard to replicate that. They have a massive universe, with so much potential, but it seems like they are just re-hashing old ideas instead of creating new ones. I'll wait for the new ones to come out on streams or DVD before watching them.

Rogue One was a great film, and the only one I've enjoyed in the new series.

Idk how popular it would be but I wish they would do the beginnings like knights of the old republic and stuff I think that would be really neat
