One of the other online magazines also had mentioned about how empty Galaxy’s Edge was. They were thinking that maybe Disney had over marketed it and scared people off. But, according to most actual Star Wars fans, the reason you gave... That there’s hardly any Star Wars in a Star Wars-themed attraction... was the real culprit behind the lack of attendance.

There is even an actual move to boycott anything to do with Star Wars until Disney apologizes to the fans for the debacle that was ‘The Last Jedi’. Many of them are saying that Kathleen Kennedy, a well-known SJW, completely ruined the whole Mythos behind Star Wars with her Mary Sue main character. One of the major pushers behind this boycott, a YouTuber who goes by the name of Diktor Von Doomcock, his said that their motto is “Without Respect, We Reject”.

I had read a report that Star Wars lost about 95% of its valuation under her. Going from $4 billion dollars valuation to about $300 million valuation

I've watched several of Doomcock's videos, I'm on the side of "Star Wars? What's that? Oh that thing that was great 25 years ago? Loved that!" I accepted that "The Force Awakens" was a rehash of the original Star Wars with a less interesting main character (Mary Sue, yes but not yet on the level she'd reach in the next film). "The Last Jedi" broke me.

My opinion: Rian Johnson went into it with intention of trolling the fans. He intentionally did everything he could to not deliver on anything they wanted to see. And that could be okay if he delivered something good. Luke could be a broken man if training Rey gave him purpose and allowed him to fight back from the brink. But no, Rian Johnson didn't offer us an unexpcted arc. Instead he has Luke refuse to help Rey and she trains herself for an afternoon and then she's just better than Luke anyway so he just sucks now. ooh wow didn't everyone love how expectations were subverted?! Actually no. And he did stuff like that over. and over. and over. Until I decided "he's doing this on purpose, he's not just inept. He's trolling us."
