Anyone who thinks Disney is only taking home $200 million from The Last Jedi .... lol I've got a bridge and some fairy powder to sell you, I'll even give you a discount. Like ok you're "outraged" with the new Star Wars, my counter to that would be "so what?". Like really, so what? Like TLJ people who don't like the film act like they're some unique crowd. You're not. Take a ticket and go stand at the back of a very long line please. Every Star Wars movie since the OT has had very vocal backlash, with The Phantom Menace getting the worst of it. So hey, welcome to the party, you're only 18 years late, wanna play some Nintendo 64? Disney got an absolute steal on Star Wars for $4 billion and are going to make mountains of money off the franchise and there's going to be 20 more Star Wars movies in your life time. This trilogy is far outgrossing the prequels too, TFA inflation adjusted easily beats TPM, TLJ easily beats AOTC box office wise, Episode IX will beat Revenge of the Sith easily. You'll never match the OT, but that doesn't mean the franchise is in any danger. That's a load of bull shit plain and simple.

Acting like the movie is better than the prequels is not going to save it. The movie is hated, literally, even worse than TPM.
We are going to see the bigger effect of that in the next episode. Not now.
