Maybe a bit late for this thought but it occured to me today so here it is...

Disney is the only studio that could/can make the ST good.

The reason? They are the only studio that doesn't have to compete with Disney. The DC-movie-verse and Sony-SPiderman-verse have struggled and stumbled to try and copy the magic Marvel/Disney formula, instead of just being their own thing. Disney are the only studio that wouldn't want to copy Marvel as they already own that. What they wanted from Star Wars is a totally different property to diversify their portfolio.
