I think it's more that they are investing in things that are dying because Millennials are broke and they aren't getting it than it is about story lines you don't like, but way to keep full on bitching about silly things when there are a million bigger issues 
I don't know how you keep up with being so shallow ALL THE TIME. It must take a LOT of effort.

Sci-fi story posted on a sci-fi forum. And yes, people who grew up on Star Wars would still fork over plenty of money, so the crack about millennials not having enough is laughable.
Last I checked, my name is not Tim Pool. Nor is it Gary Beigler. Nor is it Anna, That Star Wars Girl… Those people who have a vested interest in this topic? And millions of other fans ? Yeah, it’s kind of a big deal.
That sounds like science-fiction.
You’re posting on a science-fiction webpage. Dear.

I mean Rey is a terrible character and all, but I think the bigger problem is they screwed up Luke Skywalker. They took one of the most iconic characters in pop culture and said "we know what you want and we're going to do the opposite because it's edgy". Well it turns out the fans replied "we know what you want and we're going to do the opposite too". So, now Disney is learning why subverting expectations isn't as fun as they thought. Their expectation of slapping "Star Wars" on anything and everything and making money is now back firing.
It really is incredible. If you asked me if someone could kill the popularity of Star Wars 10 years ago I would have said no way. That you could slap that name on any half thought out movie and it would make money. However, Disney found a way. Double amazing considering how well the MCU is working out for them and they could have just followed that formula.
I suspect they'll figure out a way to get things turned around eventually. If it comes to it they can just back track and start following the fan favorite content they already own from the old expanded universe.

By all means, let's cater to the incels and racists and pretend women and people of color don't exist and never did because of raging inferiority complexes in white dudes.
Maybe this time around it'll be easier to just have the guys take out their trouser sabers and joust with them...

Because humans existed long ago in a galaxy far., far away...
The new stories are crap. There’s just no getting around it. Sorry if it puts your pink puddy cat hat in a bunch, but the kids just aren’t going for now. Neither are the older generation who grew up with this stuff. Because projecting extreme far left nonsensical views make so much sense in a sci-fi fantasy.
And isn’t that the point of a fictional story? To show people things they didn’t imagine, and not project onto them fringy, mindless SJW nonsense ?

It's not just Galaxy's Edge, I've seen vids on YOUTUBE where a line for a ride is a five minute wait.

5 minute wait, in summer, no less. The peak of park attendance. Yikes.

May Disney go bankrupt and get bought up by Mary Parent and Zoic Studios.
