The movie was a massive critical and commercial success. They don’t give a shit about a portion of the fan base loudly complaining on the internet.
If the majority people really hated it that much, the home video sales wouldn’t have been as good as they were.
TLJ made a ton of money. That’s all that matters to the studio. It’s a business, after all.
Rian made them money and was easy to work with (notice how TLJ is the only post-Disney movie without a ton of behind the scenes drama, reshoots, and crew shakeups). Of course they’re going to give him more movies.
Excellent as always.
