Lose the star wars if old
That kind of makes sense.
I still think there's an opportunity for that City 17 Coruscant movie, one last battle with the formation of a treaty and a new Alliance. An epilogue.
The First Order can deny that their supreme leader was ever killed and rally behind a masked Mandarin-type leader who claims to be Kylo Ren but of course isn't.
Finn leads a stormtrooper rebellion in partial stormtrooper armour with a lightsaber.

Of course they aren't. The entire First Order was still spread throughout the galaxy at the end of the movie. Only that one ship traveled back into the Uknown Region to join the Sith Fleet. The rest of the FO was still out there.
And yet they're all celebratory at the end. The film made zero sense.

I started to feel that way about most of the novels they've dropped too. They really don't let them do anything too bold for fear of the movies or characters they might want to use in the future.
The funny thing is that's the post-ROTJ scenario they spent a bunch of time finally bringing to a close with the supplemental stuff (since the Empire wouldn't have just vanished post-Endor, Emperor or no Emperor) culminating with the battle of Jakku.
Now we're back where we started when we ended.

To mine ideas from a draft script that Lucasfilm owns? I don't see why not.
They showed a Holdo maneuver performed over Endor, indicating that how the Galaxy Fleet gathered to fight on Exegol, the galaxy stood up against the FO everywhere.
Get ready for Kylo Ren's clone dual wielding crossblade lightsabers
Star Wars adventures comic have never had anything impactful to canon iirc. They are pretty worthless in the end. They are meant for young children.
Lucasfilm owns the drafts of any Star Wars movie done for them. Scrapped or otherwise.
Rey just got shoved Luke's story so there's nowhere else to go.
Finish off the Empire, rebuild Jedi order, again, except with a cast you don't give two shits about.
Then somehow, Palpatine returns.
This is Star Wars now.

Should've left Kylo Ren alive, huge mistake not to continue his story and path to redemption. It would be like a reverse prequel trilogy where instead of watching Anakin fall, we see Ben Solo struggle to rise and find his place after the events of the movie.
I mean if you are young enough then these characters are your Star Wars. Just like the Prequels were for the prior generation. I still remember seeing SW in 1978, so those wars are my star wars.
If 2014 didn't prove to you that everything other than the movies can be erased easily, then I have some movie tie in books to sell you.
Are kids into this trilogy to the same degree as the older ones?
We liked original Star Wars because it was good; it was not automatically good just because it was Star Wars.
And it will be undone again when they eventually want to do episode X
I mean there's no reason to be an asshole about it. Just because they're not your favorites doesn't mean other people aren't allowed to like shit. These characters are beloved and favorite to some people.My SO didn't really grow up watching the OT/PT, watched them much later in life, and the ST ended up being her favorite era. And I see a lot of little girls dressed as Rey at Galaxy's Edge who will probably grow up viewing these characters as beloved favorites. In 10-15 years you'll just be the old man yelling at the cloud.

The only reason the EU novels that actually pushed the story forward (Thrawn, NJO, etc) were ever allowed to happen is because George Lucas was resigned to the fact that he was never going to make sequel movies. That won't happen ever again.
It's not surprising and it's no different than post RotJ in both legends and canon.
Someone also pointed out that it could be taking place between the celebration and Rey visiting the Lars homestead at the end of TROS.

Believe it or not there are people out there (myself included) who like these characters.

The notion that the star wars will never end and that there will always be a fight between the light and the dark side is actually quite hopepunk
We liked it because we had never really seen anything like it before. It blew our minds. It inspired generations of kids, just as Star Trek did in the 60s.
My own kids liked these movies good enough. Much of that coming from my own love of SW. But they will probably look back at the last 10 years and identify more with the Marvel movies than anything else.
