i could be wrong but i think most including die hard fans enjoyed it apart from the awful Cushing CGI and think most of us have wanted to know about Han in his early days if done right |

The only reason I can see is that Disney have a set agenda to how they see the vision of Star Wars, not how Lucas envisioned it. There's a very clear distinction between what was developed and created in all six films made by George Lucas and Lucasfilm back then. The Disneyfied Star Wars of today is very PC and has very cold characters that you just don't feel for in both The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. No wonder Disney executives turned their noses up at what Lucas was developing in Ep's 7, 8 and 9. Lucas wanted to move away from Han Solo, Luke Skywalker etc. And considered creating a new cast of characters with a new threat. Plus having a more grounded story arc, rather than having the plot endlessly move all over the place, with very little inter-relationship with the characters that we see in The Last Jedi and The Force Awakens. All I see is this alternate trilogy treading on old ground by copying or taking elements from the original films without giving what went before any respect what so ever. |

The original three films aren't things I hold dear or are particularly special to me, so I happily watch the new films (including Rogue One, which I thought was a very well made, entertaining and interesting film in its own right) as long as they are good and entertaining pieces for adventure sci-fi. For the most part, they have been.

https://www.theguardian.com/film/201...-with-this-one I've just read this article and Anna Smith really like something you seem to have disliked: the strong female characters which have always been a feature of Star Wars films. https://www.theguardian.com/film/201...n-bechdel-test

i always found it strange that technology has not improved much in the 2000 years between old republic and the trilogy |

I always say....trust the gut instinct Nosferatu. 95% of the time you're proven right. And in this case, I think The Last Jedi deserves it's status as a rather pale imitation of what went before. |
