Personally, I don’t blame fans for doing review bombs in star wars productions. Star Wars movies and series from the Disney era were made in such a poor way and, what’s worse, the executives/producers indirectly make fun of the fandom so regularly, that I think it’s even normal for people who enjoy Star Wars to do this. They are passionate fans (even more, they are consumers) of the franchise, who are dissatisfied and want to make this satisfaction heard, and the review bomb is one way to do that. Even fans of this site are dissatisfied with the franchise, otherwise they wouldn’t make such radical fan edits with almost 100% of the productions that Lucasfilm releases. The whole thing just got out of hand at this point.

It’s sad that a franchise created to entertain has become a stage for agendas and political-social messages. Let’s agree, no one here fell in love with Star Wars because of that kind of thing. If the focus was on telling a good story, with good action scenes and a sincere feeling for the franchise, I think we would have fewer questionable productions at this point under Disney management, and more stories with heart.
