The majority of entries in the Star Wars franchise are objectively trash, or very close to it, much like Star Trek. It is odd, and disappointing, how a genre with so much freedom for creativity and expression, is so uninspired and sales driven. Popularity is not quality. The original 3 Star Wars movies were something different partially because of how much effort would have been required to make them.
Objectively you can ask a billion people and see what their opinions are on various star wars media. It's one of the few things a billion people will know and have an opinion about.
But because George Lucas said something positive about AI use for visual effects, suddenly what mustn't be, can't be. You people have no problem denying reality and shouting out alternative facts if it suits your agenda.
1 billion people.... "alternate facts"
