I’m curious what would get all of you back in the theaters again.
I don’t mind Disney/Lucasfilm trying some new ideas like Rogue One, Solo, and the different Disney+ series, but I think the main saga movies are right in that sweet spot of paying tribute to what came before while still giving me things I haven’t seen before. I think they’re getting it all exactly right.
As I said, I am more accepting of the prequels now, but I still think some of the choices were real head scratchers. I didn’t like where Star Wars was headed and I’m glad Lucas sold it.
I don’t think Star Wars is ending anytime soon, so maybe the next group of movies will be more appealing for some of you.
On a side note, as more people become dissatisfied with movie theaters themselves, the growing popularity of streaming, and the affordability of great home theater technology, it is quite possible the future of Star Wars will be the Disney+ series.
