I think they should make a pause with the movies for at least 10 years and focus on TV shows instead. Disney needs to take time to develop a good story instead of just throwing whatever nostalgic baiting shit at the fans, I'm pretty sure they'll keep making a lot of money with or without the movies.

I think that's already guaranteed.

They barely started the production of new movies.

Tbh the new trilogy was their chance to hook in the kids and the new generation and convert them into lifelong fans. Instead they only pissed off their existing fans- the older generation lol. I'm sure they'd have loved to make the new characters household names like Luke, Han Solo, Darth Vader or the MCU stars.

That would probably be for the best but Disney in now BILLIONS of dollars in debt and on the verge of bankruptcy... They need and easy hit like a new Star Wars film but at the same time, they need to make one that the FANS will actually support so that they can get that big box office and save their asses.

I think the CHARACTERS in the new trilogy were quite good and the cast was brilliant, they were just given nothing to work with story-wise

I hope so but I just can't trust movie companies nowadays, heck not even directors, they'll destroy everything as long as can make two cents out of it. You can ask James Cameron...

Personally I found Rey and Kylo to both be pretty bland, there was potential with Kylo but they didn't fully explore it imo. Snoakes could've been a great villain too but they did him dirty.

Finn also, another wasted potential. The actors were fine, Adam Driver did the best with what he got, but the writing was sub-par.
