Just curious. What things would Abrams have to promise, and what things would have to be in the trailers in order to restore your faith in Star Wars?
Just for the record, I’m not crazy excited about this movie myself, even though I actually didn’t mind TLJ, but that’s mostly because I feel like there aren’t really many other directions to go in.

A Rotten Tomatoes Audience (not Critic) score of 90% or better.

My point was that there'd almost certainly be aholes aiming to manipulate the score out of spite. There may be, but how much impact do they really have? If the film is good enough, it should still be able to top 90%. I haven't seen it yet, but Mission: Impossible - Fallout has 92%. If Episode IX comes close to 90%, I might still see it. For example, Deadpool 2 had 86%, and I loved that and I'm buying the DVD when it's released.

Disney would have to publicly apologize on the official Star Wars website for calling the fanbase racists, misogynists, trolls, etc. It's unmerited and completely disrespectful towards all the wonderful fellow fans I've met over the years. Out of everything, their treatment towards the fanbase has been their most grievous act.
Then remove Kathleen Kennedy, who doesn't make good decisions. She should be replaced with multiple people so there's a check-and-balances approach to decision making. Having one person have as much power as she's had the last 6 years is too much.
Cancel Rian Johnson's trilogy. Disney doesn't even have to officially cancel it but put the trilogy "on hold" indefinitely. People will eventually grow bored with the idea of him making more movies, and all Disney will have to do is just not mention the idea again...
I still won't give a cent for Episode 9. However, I would consider going (dependent on the story) to see the standalone movies if they did the above.

Nothing, it's just another bloated never ending sequel fest of a franchise now. I mean I love Star Trek and Next Generation but I couldn't care less about crap like Enterprise or whatever the new one is called. They can't fix what they did to Luke Skywalker without ignoring that last one so it's not my SW anymore. Judging by the falling box office results a lot of people feel like I do.

Yes, yes, I like that. It could open in hospital room, Luke Skywalker standing over the bed of an awakening Jar Jar. "Meesa just had a horrible nightmare! Yoosa was in it" (points to a nurse, played by Daisy Ridley), "anda you sir, yoosa was in it too" (points to a janitor, mopping the corner of the room (played by John Boyega). Just then, in walks an hispanic Doctor and his young emo med student assistant, "oh my, meesa feeling giddy..." wails a troubled Jar Jar! Then we hear Jar Jar finish up telling the hospital staff a familiar tale (known to us, the viewers, as the woeful TFA & TLJ). "... And then a leetle boy a lika Harry Potter magically leefted up the broomstick. Anda thatsa the finish". Silence fills the room. The staff look at each other, not knowing what to say. Finally Luke Skywalker speaks... "Seriously Jar Jar - I milked the tit of a space sea cow?!". More pin dropping silence. Then the room erupts to roars of laughter! "Itsa true, all of it!" protests the once again lampooned Gungan. Then the scene would fade out, followed by "Star Wars: (The Real) Episode VII"

I want a Dallas-like ending where Luke at the end of Plan 9 wakes up in the Jedi temple and realizes it was a bad dream. And then he should shake his head in disbelieve and utter something like "what an redundant dream of failure and lack of vision; I must tell Han and Leia on Coruscant so we can have a laugh about it".
That is basically what I regard these sequels, badly conceived fan fiction.

There be only one thing dat can save episode IX... Gungans!
Start da movie off with da combination of da usual Abrams nonsense and Disney nonsense. This'n be what happens halfway through da movie. In da middle of space war between da Rebels and da First Order, Mon Calamari battle cruisers de-cloak. Dats right! Thems have cloaking power now! Captain Tarpals is commandin da entire fleet. He orders them to attack da First Order and they'sa start winnin'. Then Captain Tarpals says to a mysterious shadowy figure on his battle cruiser "Meesa ready to command and start da ground assault! Weesa gotta grand army!"
Then from da shadows emerges (yousa wait for it)... ADMIRAL ACKBAR! Then bombad Ackbar says "You may proceed with your army of that magnitude. And thank you for retrieving me from the cold dead of space." Then drop ships descend da thousands of Gungans on da moon of New Endor where an army of Porgs, Eewoks, and Rebel slappies will be fightin Stormtroopers and stooge Hux clones. Now Admiral Ackbar takes command of da fleet and begins pummeling da First Order. Then a mysterious shadowy figure behind Ackbar says "Drop me off on da Death Starkiller." "Proceed with the drop off!" says Ackbar.
Then from da shadows emerges Darth Jar Jar! "Wipe thems out! All o' thems!" Darth Jar Jar is shuttled to da Death Starkiller. He confronts Rey and Kylo in da middle of locked sabers and locked lips. "Meesa had a vision from Force ghost Anakin and Force ghost Luke. They'sa was betrayed by da Light side. Da Light side brainwashed little Ani's son to becomin a scaredy, senile hermit. Him was self banished! All so Rey could be da Only One, da ultimate MarySue Jedi all by herself. Force ghost Luke be givin meesa da bombad Sith Lord powers to gets revenge!"
At da same time Admiral Ackbar announces "The First Order's forces have been decimated. "Commence attack on the Resistance! Surprise you fake Rebel pansies! ITS A TRAP!" Poe, Finn, Rose and da rest can't repel firepower of dat magnitude! Meanwhile Darth Jar Jar be duelin Rey and Kylo in lightsabers at da same time. Finally hims just Force lightnings and Force chokes they'sa both to death. Da Gungans and da Mon Calamari restore peace and happiness to da galaxy for da next thousand years.
Any other story for episode IX is no-sa worth watchin!

Many of them would be happy of they just replaced all the minority characters with white people.

He'd have to announce he's stepping down, and dave filoni will reboot the ST(with GL as a story consultant maybe?) at a later date once they've had as much time as they need to develop a 3 part story that actually fits with the OT.

Get a decent director to direct it and make it about Lando and Nien trying to bring back Ack
