I skipped Episode VIII and have no desire to see IX. VII was “OK”, but extremely by-the-numbers. After hearing about all the SJW nonsense going on with VIII, I decided I had better things to do than to give them my money.
You did good. The Last Jedi was so bad it made The Phantom Menace look good in comparison. I’m now in your position in regards to the next one. I’ve hit the unsubscribe button.
7 was almost a carbon copy of 4. It was closer to a remake than another movie.
I had the same experience. Saw Ep. 7 on DVD after hearing for months about "ZOMG IT WAS AMAZING!!!" and Star Wars fans fawning over the "fact" that Disney had saved Star Wars and revived the franchise to its glory days of the late 70s/early 80s. Then I watched the ACTUAL film and it was a fun popcorn movie, but basically a pointless soulless cash grab for Disney. Have no desire to see future installments continue the "saga"
