TFA already did that for me. The Feminist version of ANH.. thanks, but no thanks.
TLJ just validated that, in abundance! Bringing back the heroes of the OT just to show them as disillusioned losers or comical stooges and then kill them off!
After the XM Boba, the efx Falcon was my last Star Wars Purchase, for the time being.
Unless someone capable is at the helm of Lucas Arts again - someone who understands the franchise and the fans,
someone who puts lore and good storytelling in front of gender agendas and quotas, the whole franchise (not just the OT) remains dead to me.
Sorry for getting off topic here, but since the day i watched the premiere of Star Wars in 1978, i always considered myself a die hard SW Fan!
These new movies are an abomination, disrespecting everything the OG trilogy stood for (along with the intelligence of its audience), sacrificing
the mythos and its mystical aspects for cheap laughs. It just makes me sad and angry...
To answer the question of the TO: Yes, imo the OT is dead (as is the whole franchise), because Kathleen Kennedy/Disney did everything in their power to kill it.. literally!
