It seems like they are not even keeping the new characters around unless they appear in books or cartoons.
They rushed the sequel trilogy to be done in 4 years, and built a new theme park around these characters and now they are lame ducks

Oh they'll surely keep appearing in some form. The saga finished but they'll continue in other ways. Probably books of Finn's time as a Stormtrooper.
There was a whole year between VIII and IX for them to make loads of books and comic.

I mean it isn't like they had a great story they just HAD to tell, they set the release dates before they even had scripts, and the movies don't even flow together, so yeah money, which they made less and less of every time...there be a lesson in there somewhere me thinks.

Disney wanted to tether to Star Wars as we've known it, & build on it. Instead they immediately got cold feet & showered us with nostalgia.
New. Star. Wars.
Give. It. To. Me.
Srsly, Disney can still make this work if they simply get their heads out of their ass.
They had Ant-Man be a key payoff to Endgame for fcuk's sake... you go back 10yrs & tell the world that one & they'd laugh in your face.

Clearly the point is for angry Identitarians furious about Luke's gender and skin color to undo his movies and accomplishments while making money off of mindless consumers with no critical thought. Mission accomplished.

To temporarily help you forget that you haven't done anything significant with your life and that it's all coming to an end one minute at a time.

By slowly killing off our childhood heroes one by one and establishing that their lives and adventures meant absolutely nothing? Seems an odd way to go about it but ok.

No they would have looked at you confused and asked who the fuck is Ant Man and what the fuck are the Avengers...well except those who remember the old TV show and I believe the 90's movie of the same name but totally unrelated property that is.
