A 45% drop is unbelievably massive for a franchise like Star Wars. The damage Disney has done to it, on top of the damage Lucas did to it with the prequel trilogy, has also killed the nostalgia for this GenXer as well.
Had Star Wars not become infected by Communists I would have been the first person in line at the theater. Now? I won’t even watch it for free, because I know it will be political propaganda with poor writing and acting, and way way way too much dependence on CGI graphics to carry the show.
Han Solo was my favorite character. They should have made a movie about his life way before when Ford was younger. Star Wars now is complete garbage and the idiots of Disney will run it into the ground as a flaming propaganda machine, pandering to the freak class and ruining the integrity of its original cinematographic intent.
I hate to break it to you, but Star Wars had been infected by the Communists since 1973 when Lucas wrote the first film, and by extension the entire franchise to basically be Viet Cong propaganda and a subtle attempt at demonizing the Vietnam War effort by America.
And honestly, even without my already being on boycott on Disney due to rank stupidity Disney’s done with their films and media since their live action remake of Beauty and the Beast, I’m probably not going to see the film, since I suspect it’s just going to be badly done.
