I mean, look at ROTS. Hayden and Natalie's acting sucked. Lucas's directing and writing sucked. The continuity was screwed. The entire picture overall sucked. But a LOT of hard work was put into it by a LOT of people (as evidenced in the Within a Minute documentary). Hayden and Natalie believed in themselves, and tried hard. There a lot of SFX guys behind it all, just so many people. These people obviously worked hard and believed in what they were doing. So I say, at least give it a chance for that reason.
The whole reason I watch Star Wars is for the "Oh cool!" thought-provoking type moments. And I'm sure that, even if the series is a failure, I'll get something out of it. As Saun Dann says: "Just set down and enjoy it."
