I would agree. However, with how shit Game Thrones has gotten over the years, culminating in this dumpster fire final season, Dumb & Dumber probably wouldn't be an improvement.
Of course it's not. The fan base absolutely hated it. As time has gone, the movie's reception has become worse and worse. Even saying the reaction is mixed is putting it lightly.
I'm not sure about SW movies anymore...I dunno, maybe it's because we went so long without a movie(over a decade) that I feel like...SW doesn't need to have movies anymore.
It was fine with just 6 movies and the rest being books, comics, TV shows and games. ...If it ain't broke don't try and fix it right?
They're a fine choice I suppose. My enthusiasm for SW has been destroyed by TLJ, so currently I don't have any strong feelings one way or another. But at the very least, they will try to appeal to the fans.
^ Fair enough. Ive been put off since Force Awakens, then the combination of TFA and TLJ just convinced me this is simply a really bad Star Wars trilogy that wasnt needed at all.
That said, I really dug Rogue One, so would certainly give new directors doing spin off films a chance. I just think the Episodic films need to die now with Ep.9.

A feeling of fullness, of power, of dark and demon mastery -- of secret lusts, unrestrained passion, wild submission -- all these things were in Vader's heart as he neared his Emperor. These things and more."
DnD aren't incompetent writers as a lot of fans seem to think. The first four seasons (which were also the best season) may have had them following the books' outline but it still take quite a bit of skill to adapt it as well as they did. Furthermore, many great scenes were originals that they came up. The decline in quality of these past few seasons seems to have as much to do with a lack of passion on their part as it does with a lack of material to adapt.
