Ok so you agree ESB was pointless too.
In the context of the OT, no. In the context of SW, yes.
Yeah, it ain’t hard to understand and it’s a vastly accepted fact. After Star Wars, it felt like it ended. There are many people on this site even that don’t have ESB in their personal canon cause they like the self contained story of SW. But I really love and adore ESB so it doesn’t matter. That’s the entire point.
