Or telling stories audiences care about. Solo is a great character, but one brought to life by Ford.

Just putting Star Wars in the title isn't enough.

Precisely, a sentiment shared in the article for those not wishing to read the entire thing... RollingThunder May 25, 14:42

But don't you see; they have to mine it for all it's worth until we're all completely sick of it. That's how it works! Don't confuse em'! {nm} goodvibe61 May 25, 14:51

I agree with her. I've never been a big SW guy, but it used to be special, now they're churning them out every year. -JPV- May 25, 15:06

Telling stories that we already how the end {nm} gogreenytd May 25, 14:57

Prequel fatigue in general, we want ORIGINAL ideas, characters with unknown outcomes. {nm} skunkrunner May 25, 15:31

which is what's happening in the main saga...though I think some SW fans meant unknown outcomes that THEY want =P {nm} tealfan May 25, 16:17

Yep. {nm} CSBD May 26, 05:29

Is there a franchise that doesn't rehash the same formulas time after time after time? {nm} goodvibe61 May 25, 23:00

Thanks to rian johnsons Jedi movie Star Wars is going downhill from here bunty_ketti May 25, 15:44

Star Wars was going downhill way before The Last Jedi. But Rian Johnson certainly didn't help. {nm} THXER May 25, 16:09

?? How come SW was "going downhill" before TLJ, when TFA became the biggest grosser in US history?? Are you for real? {nm} Filmstardust May 26, 16:38

i enjoyed solo. i want more star wars movies as long as rian johnson keeps his hands off. im anxious to see what benioff and weiss can do {nm} horrorfanatic May 25, 16:53

Petition was started to oust Kathleen Kennedy from Lucasfilm budice May 25, 17:32

Signed. Can't say she improved the haul of TFA, but we certainly know her mismanagment of personal ballooned budgets {nm} Fitch3k May 28, 02:53

Or just the latest victim of sequelitis; in between DEAD2 and OCEN4 {nm} stormgod May 25, 20:49

Memorial Day weekend is where franchises go to underwhelm... {nm} Catzan May 26, 23:17

This is easy: Fans said they were going to boycott SW, and they did. They HATED TLJ and said FU, not giving my money again. {nm} Filmstardust May 27, 07:34

I with hold judgement until the third installment opens. Currently, the latest episodes are in line with the two previous trilogies. {nm} Catzan May 27, 16:48
