No, Solo’s main problem was that The Last Jedi was horrific and people chose not to attend - this was compounded by the multiple insults hurled at the fanbase by LucasFilm’s current SJW leadership and the admission they are using Star Wars to push a left-wing political agenda. The Last Jedi’s DVD BluRay sales are not good for what they should be- they may barely make Rogue One’s numbers which was not even part of the episodic saga.

You are quite spin doctor for the Left’s behavior in trying to appropriate Star Wars - the fans are rejecting it. That is reality. A Star Wars movie not even being able to break even is a disaster of epic proportions.

Well, to be fair, Star Wars was always meant to push a left-wing political agenda (George Lucas created the film series specifically to protest American involvement in the Vietnam War as well as giving solidarity to the Vietcong, and don’t get me started on how the Prequel Trilogy really makes its left-wing nature all the more explicit by making having any military at all to be a bad thing and in ROTS basically bashing Bush a few times), but still, even by Star Wars standards, what the current heads of Lucasfilm are doing regarding a left-wing agenda goes far beyond what even Lucas would have ever envisioned, and it seems the fans are now yelling “enough!” at the crap. When The Last Jedi makes the prequels look tolerable, TFA as well, you definitely know Disney screwed up big time.

Honestly, before now, the closest Star Wars EVER had to a box office failure was that Clone Wars movie. That should say something.
