"This is not the Star Wars you're looking for."
The folks in charge of this trilogy made a huge mistake when they decided to not use material from any of the many books that have been written over the last 35 years. That was just really foolish. All these authors had worked with Lucasarts to craft coherent storylines which all fit together. Instead they make a terrible wreck of a story full of massive plot holes, is incompatible with the previous films, and full of PC garbage.
I was upset about this decision but was willing to let it go and see what happened after The Force Awakens, but then when I saw The Last Jedi, I couldn’t believe what they made. It was absolutely terrible in every way except for visual.
What’s really stupid is that most Star Wars fans have not read the books so it would essentially be new to most folks if they had used any material from the books at all. Only the hard core fans would recognize it and be pleased if they had done a semi decent job.
As far as I’m concerned, this trilogy never happened and is not part of Star Wars.
