Speak for yourself. My experience was... Pre TFA - JJ could be okay, hopefully he doesn't go crazy with lense flair After TFA - Damn that was a lazy rehash of 77, Luke wasn't even in it and Han was disgraced. The next one better be great but Looper sucks. After TLJ - Rian and KK are clearly sabotaging SW with malice. Disney must be stopped. After TROS - It sucked, not surprised. Fire literally everyone to blame.

That's right, Canadians; now you know how I feel about your currency.

The final SW sequel could have easily made 2 billion if anyone competent was producing and directing.

speak for yourself, your clumsy straw men do not speak for the fandom. For my part:
Pre TFA - George Lucas sucks bailed and sold us to the white slavers who as their their first act killed Clone Wars and the EU, glad horrified that JJ, the destroyer of franchises, is directing - but hope dies last...
After TFA - Man this was just an unoriginal and uncreative rip off of ANH ANH and elements of the OT and EU, the plot holes could have filled a super-massive black hole; hope Rian does something different
After TLJ - this movie sucked was silly and mediocre, they continued to ruin ruined Luke and other character and the SWU, glad even more shocked that JJ the destroyer of franchise is back to finish the mess he started; all hope is gone...
After TRoS, oh no predictably it was horriblelaughable and preposterously messy, hope they learn from it and get their act together Rian Johnson will still get his trilogy now, there is always a new hope

If you determine that what’s onscreen is horrible then you obviously have a different determination in your head about what’s a better story. Sorry, clown! But you’re “caught up in your own web”. LOL

When you stoop so low as to direct personal insults at another person just for having an opposing view in a conversation, it doesn't help your cause. Not at all. In fact, it makes you sound unintelligent and immature.

I said it before Many Star Wars "fans" are terrible people. And have been that way since 1997 Special Editions. Then the prequel trilogy. Then Indiana Jones and Crystal Skull (there is a large overlap because of Ford/Lucas). Then the sequel trilogy. There is always an outcry of how the latest is just THE WORST THING EVER! I've never understood how people can become so vocally bitter over a movie. It's maybe $20 maximum and 2 hours of their life. I've had bad dinners at restaurants that "inconvenienced" me the same amount of time and money. I don't spend years or decades obsessing over how terrible it was and arguing and insulting people. So why do it for a movie? It's just a freaking movie. What benefit is there to spending years being angry and bitter over watching 2 hours of a make believe world that you didn't enjoy? Just move on and shut the fuck up. George willingly sold his company to Disney mainly because of how the "fans" reacted to EVERYTHING he did after ROTJ. Kathleen Kennedy was hand picked by George to run Lucasfilm. She is just as responsible for Rogue One, The Mandalorian and the new season of the Clone Wars, as she is for the sequel trilogy and Solo.

I have to disagree with you in part on what I hi-lighted in bold. TRUE retconning involves changing something already established, or changing the interpretation of it. And there was nothing established about Vader’s backstory, other than he used to be an apprentice of Kenobi and he betrayed/murdered the Jedi.

Well, I guess you could call that TRUE Scotsman retconning. LOL. Okay. But just to be clear I wasn’t giving you my own “load of crap/true Scotsman/personal interpretation” definition... retcon - revise (an aspect of a fictional work) retrospectively, typically by introducing a piece of new information that imposes a different interpretation on previously described events (Oxford Dictionary)retcon - Retroactive continuity, or retcon for short, is a literary device in which established facts in a fictional work are adjusted, ignored, or contradicted by a subsequently published work which breaks continuity with the former.
