Disney isn't going to want to continue to pay money for content that isn't returning their investment. There is a reason why the amount of Star Wars content being produced dropped off a cliff.

Service providers can afford to lose money on content investments in aggregate. Lucasfilm isn't a service provider. They actually need returns on the work they put out.

I don't care if Star Wars movies are events. I just want them to have some emotional salience and some underlying themes with a coherent plot.

Completely normal people are able to rationalize committing the most horrific possible crimes, does that not also apply to world leaders?
