3. The only time I said the vast majority was in context to why the SJWs at Disney and in the media are freaking out. They do honestly think that the people who think like I do about the new SW, regardless of where they fall on the political spectrum, are a minuscule portion of the fanbase, while the people who think like them are the vast majority. That's why they are having their minds blown at the disappointing performance of TLJ and the flop that is Solo, even though they think it should be perfectly fine to attack these "bigots" online or put their agendas in the film. It's a rude awakening for them. I realize that you actually agree with them, but there's nothing that's going to change your mind, even if Ep 9 flops or greatly underpeforms next year, so whatever. I guess it will still be fatigue, lol.

1. TLJ is the second highest grossing Star Wars movie. I wouldn't call that dissapointing.
2. Solo's dissapointing box office run has everything to do with poor timing.

1. No. No it is not. If you adjust for inflation, it is #5. And you can't ignore the fact that not only did it greatly underperform against its expectations, but it also got beat by 3 other SW films that didn't have the added bonus of the greatly expanded FBO that we have today. It also caused a steep dip in merch sales.
2. Tell that to POTC:AWE that not only had competition as strong, some weeks stronger, but still ended up making $963.42M WW, unadjusted. Though, if you mean poor timing, as in releasing after a major fan backlash and not before it, then I'd probably agree with you.
