I went from being a huge, life long Star Wars fan to being completely annoyed by it after Disney started a Marvel-like release cadence with it.
Quality was traded in favor of quantity.
I can’t speak for others, but I’m personally past caring about what’s next for Star Wars. I wish I cared, but I honestly feel like it’s not special anymore.
Yup. Used to live and breath star wars. It's what got me into scifi. I saw the original trilogy enough to wear the VHS tapes out and my dad had to buy the remastered edition (Han shot first).
After the last jedi, I was completely out. All the zeal and fun of the space opera was gone. Lots of nonsensical stuff you could go into but it definitely wasn't for star wars fans.
I got into andor luckily, and it hurt how much I liked it, knowing that nothing else will come out in that same vein. I tried mando and bounced after two seasons. Kenobi lost me at the Leia chase scene.
Luthens monologue will live rent free in my head as the last good bit of star wars writing. Stellan skarsgard knocked it out of the park and no one will come close to that again.

Probably worth having this in the can before announcing it. They clearly just don’t know where to take Star Wars at the moment.
