Star Wars is such an overrated franchise

Yayaaya jump on the hype train the second someone claims ms

This is the problem

Will there ever be a new generation franchise in the future that will dethrone Star Wars in popularity?.

Has the sequel trilogy ever made new characters that were hated worse than Jar Jar?.

I liked JarJar, the battle sequence at the end with him fighting the robots was awesome! I was 7!

I'm saying if the current sequel trilogy made brand new characters far worse than Jar Jar Binks.

It gets way too predictable when people mention the best TV shows, movies and merchandise it always has to be Star Wars. It's one very big impactful franchises in all of entertainment history. Star Wars day is that one informal commemorative day observed annually on May 4 to celebrate George Lucas' Star Wars franchise.

Star Wars has the most overdone parodies in pop culture that its not funny anymore.

you can always stop watching so you do not have cry about it

From a more civilized age.

It's just coasting off of OT still. Though honestly as a very casual Star Wars fan I love Last Jedi and think it's a great film. Made Luke the most interesting he's every been. Rise of Skywalker was comically bad. And the prequel trilogy was shit except for Revenge of the Sith, which was a decent enough payoff, and really a masterpiece compared to the prior two piles of crap. Phantom Menance had promise but they flubbed it bad.

Just pointing out how overrated Star Wars has become as a huge franchise.

I disagree with everything you said except this:

You're largely right there. Vader, Luke, Han, Leia still shift more merch than almost anything else. The only thing that competes at all is the Clone Wars and the Mandalorian, and even they are spun off of the OT in their own way anyway.

I think Mark Hamills acting was great. He made the most out of the crap he was given. But man Lukes character arc was bad. I would honestly think Luke was a total d*** if not for Hamill sort of convincing me otherwise.

Interesting though the part that made most hate the film is the part that worked for you. Shows all film really is subjective.

Rogue one is the best Star Wars film.

Definitely the best of the Disney ones. Actually the only Disney one I really like.

R1 is the best Disney Star Wars film no question.

Solo really is underrated.

Way better than any of the ST films.

Disney had much lore to work with but rebooted the franchise and turned it into glorified mediocrity. Disney alienated a chunk of the fanbase by extension.

Taking your view at face value, it is overrated in its current form.

It adds to OT only.

Yes.

"A Star Wars Story" series >>> ST.

A gem from Disney.

I cannot think of any other series that bests Star Wars in dethroning it in popularity.

Yeah enjoyed that one too.

But Disney be like “well duh it lost money,, so duh lets stop making those kinda films”

I wonder how much Disney actually lost with Solo. Not just from poor box office (thanks TLJ), but from the mess that was actually making the damn thing. New directors, reshoots etc. That shit ain't cheap.
