Disney was never in any real danger of failing anyway, it's not like this outcome is unexpected. True, but I was hoping that with the failure of Solo that it would at least be left alone for perhaps a year or two outside that main installment that I also hope bombs.

If episode 9 is as similar to Twilight & 50 Shades as I fear it will be, it will not bomb. Likely it'll be the biggest $ maker in franchise history

It won't bomb and hoping something fails because you don't like it is childish. There you go with labels and name calling again Also, no. Wanting something to bomb because you dislike how something has changed and are doing your personal effort to show dissatisfaction with the product... Is what any consumer with a complaint wants. They want corroboration, and a unified voice, otherwise the message will most certainly be lost. We get it - if it has a Star Wars label on it, it is like your very own baby bunny and it is perfect in every way. For you... You always qualify that for you it is all great. By making that qualification, you admit that others may feel differently. Ergo, you are totally inconsistent in behavior regarding how people should or shouldn't talk, what is insulting, etc...

I wasn't labeling or name calling. I know some don't like the new films and that's fine. But wishing something to fail is childish. Period.

Those scenarios are objective and different. No you shouldn't and no it isn't. Quality of art is subjective and I'm done arguing semantics.

Let's set aside the comparisons between ISIS and The Resistance for a second. Or is it Antifa and the Resistance?
I liked the old ways of voting with your wallet. The idea behind that is the primary goal of business is to make money, affect their capacity to make money and you send them a message. We saw this with Solo tanking and all of a sudden Disney changed the way they're making anthology movies, and also Lucasfilm will only hire proven directors. So it is possible to affect a major company's dealing with their consumer base if enough people think like you to affect a company's bottom line. That's the basis behind wanting something to fail, it's a well established tactic used by righties and lefties to try and get what they want.
