Great or not, I’m just not interested in it. I feel about as apathetic about Star Wars as I did about the Carrie remake. Which is really sad but I guess it just proves to me that I was never a Star Wars fan, just a fan of three specific movies.

Right there with you. This has only increased as more movies have come out. TFA was great, but doesn’t do enough to warrant classic-status. Rogue One irritated me. Neither of them are bad enough to skip in a marathon, like the prequels are. I expect I’ll feel similarly about the others.

Han Solo movie? Lol no. Can’t stand contemporary pretty-boy actors. (Even reformed stormtrooper guy in TFA was a little hard to take.)

I generally feel the same way. Someone said hating everything contemporary is a miserable way to live life; they’re probably right. Being surrounded by contemporary-minded people in a contemporary world and hating contemporary things won’t work out for long. But, trends of contemporary movies don’t last forever, and pretty-boy actors get on my nerves too. Can’t wait until it becomes unfashionable again, like it did in the 70s to some extent.
