That is an excellent articulation, kyberangel! It’s also nice to see love for TFA here, since for many people it truly did serve as a great introduction to the series, something older fans such as myself can forget. That just makes the end of the trilogy all the more soul-crushing. The new generation of Star Wars fans deserved to get a ROTJ or a ROTS instead of the mean-spirited waste that was TROS.

thank you so much NeverarGreat, i’m happy that i was able to get my (incredibly complicated) feelings across! newer fans tend to run in completely online different circles than you guys so i wanted to share my perspective a bit!

and you’re right on the money, it was soul-crushing because for me, these were my star wars movies. it made the way that TROS just… stopped caring about the story or characters that introduced me to it’s universe to begin with feel particularly devastating. mean-spirited is exactly the right word choice for that movie.

ending on a ROTS or ROTJ is the stuff of dreams, but i can only hope that maybe one day finn, rey and poe get the disney+ treatment and recieve a proper sendoff
