there's been about 20 films in the span of ten years of the same characters/universe with huge special effects, it's unprecedented.

Star Wars always sucked.

tlj was when everything collapsed.

In the 10 years when there were no Star Wars movies.

There's just something about the new ones that doesn't feel authentic it's not the same without Lucas running the show

Always. More people liked Marvel Characters than Star Wars even before they started making Capeshit.

The post 2000s super hero movies leading up to the MCU and including the early MCU were fun, solid movies that made you want more. Even though they've gone downhill, they do enough to keep the momentum going.
On the other hand, there was a big gap between the prequels and the new trilogy. There is nothing remotely interesting, entertaining, or memorable about any of the main movies. Honestly, no one would talk about them if they never had the Star Wars name,
You could rename the original Iron Man to Jet King, and it would still be a decent movie that people look back on. Half these characters no one cared about until the MCU came out.

They need a central figure acting as a coordinator with a singular vision driving everything. Marvel's got Kevin Feige, Star Wars used to have George, and now it's basically a ship with no captain, and no destination.

This. It was massively over hyped. Game of Thrones sucks and so does capeshit.
This is mass media telling plebs what to think. Its amazing that they just eat it up.

Their destination is the bank and their mode f transport is selling space fantasy to little girls, dad, mam and siblings all buy tickets too.

That's well and good, but they don't seem to even know how to do that effectively.

They are making billions. They realized that men who have nostalgia for starwars have children now.

They've spent like $8 billion on the parks, studio and movies so far and global box office is pushing $5 billion. Merchandise sales are notoriously low.

>Solo bombed
>Merchandising sales (where the REAL money is made) is at an all-time low

Clearly, even they ackowledge what they're doing isn't working, because they've cancelled a shitload of projects, and have no movies on the horizon after IX. Everything after is streaming shit or the parks.

They'll just abandon it after 9. They'll have the IP and pull it out of the coffin after a few more decades.

In 2002 when Spider-Man trounced Attack of the Clones

They can't afford to do that. They've invested billions into the theme parks, and they have to keep public interest in the brand going to see a return on that investment.

Game of thrones definitely sucks, but I can tell you have no idea what you are talking about with that wide net

Game of thrones didn't always suck tho

Capeshit didn't, only MCU did

The new trilogy is ass. That's literally it. If the new trilogy was even just decent star wars would still be on top. But it is absolute trash.

Only MCU is bigger. DCEU is still way behind Star Wars
