The only reason why the franchise is so beloved is because of the original trilogy. It was a great series back then. The series now as a whole is very mediocre. Half of the 9 films are genuinely crap. Revenge of the Sith was the only good Star Wars movie outside of the original trilogy.

Eh, its put out more than enough quality games and other expanded content by now that I dont think you can get away with writing off the entire franchise. <_<

Maybe a dead franchise, depending on your opinion of its current output, but idk about bad.

No way that someone actually believes this.

It's fair to say that, but I still will always love the OT and various video games and such. Still:

The movies are the only bad part of the franchise to me, and yes, that includes the original trilogy now. It's pretty much fucked narratively speaking because of what the PT and ST did.

I can't just enjoy the OT in a vacuum either, because the shitty special edition is constantly propped up as the only "definitive" version that one can buy.

And no, I found Rogue One and Solo pointless and mediocre as well, they were literally Ewok movie-tier in the grand scheme of things.

No, Revenge of the Sith doesn't get a pass. Stop simping for literal garbage.

It's a franchise with a few very good high points, but yes, most of Star Wars is shit.

Most Star Wars content is shit imo but the universe itself is one of the most intriguing fictional canons in history.

I wouldn't call it bad but I don't think there's anything so great about the original trilogy that everything else lives and dies by how it stacks up.

Star Wars is amazing.

Disney Wars is utter garbage.
