"It's now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation..." - George Lucas, 2012. These two movies were the transition. The last one was a fan film that strongly resembled A New Hope. This one probably is a view towards what we'll see in the future. If they're going to be making one movie per year, one saga movie every two years, then is it going to be an endless battle between good and evil with Jedis constantly on the run, where every evil spaceship seems to blow up when it's hit in the perfect spot, and each trilogy is a new generation's take on the first three movies? They can't keep covering the same ground repeatedly. It's been fun, but they have to move it forward.

I agree. I had a feeling I was going to need to let go after The Force Awakens. This just confirmed it. And I hope they go in new directions that my son and daughter enjoy. I don't want them to cater to me anymore. I had my fun. Time to open up that huge universe.
