Precuels are not the saving grace for these movies. Those already happened, whether those were good or bad it does not matter because these new movies are judged by their own.

 

I now what you are trying to say. But you are not going to convince anyone by mentioning the precuels. In fact, if you bring those to the discussion, disney movies are going to get a lot more hate.

They're just popcorn movies at this point nothing more, nothing less. TFA/TLJ are better than Harry Potter or most Marvel movies definitely better than the Hobbit films and the DC "Universe". 

That's good enough. The only Star Wars movies that needed to be made were IV, V, and VI, they told the whole damn story. 

Making a VII, VIII, IX was always going to be a stretch and was always going to be basically a cash grab. I don't give a fuck what Lucas says either, he had no idea what he was doing with this trilogy either. It was always going to be the same "yeah but Luke or Leia's son/daughter turns to the Dark Side, even though really this would never fucking happen because they would be 10x more careful after knowing damn well they have a shady family history". 

I actually agree with that. Tlj and Tfa were entire galaxies better than the horrible marvel movies. And even the humor. God, thank god I had popcorns and nachos the day I went to see thor ragnarok...

 

And I agree with the expanded universe central plot. Leia was a bad politician. Luke turns to the darkside. Emperor's clone...Ugh.

 

For ones, I have to say that in the deep, disney had a great idea: use the original characters to then past the torch to the new ones. And then continue with the new characters.

 

The problem is basically execution. Characters on paper sounds awesome. But the execution is bad because the script is bad. No new music. Not even logic.

 

I still believe in miracles. And even if some don't want to believe, I still think that the entire trilogy can be saved if the pull the right triggers for ep ix.
