You're wrong. I am a hardcore Star Wars fan, and the movies have all gone down pretty well.
I think the problem we are seeing, is fans who take themselves or their fandom a tad too seriously. The need to step back and realize there are new generations of characters and schools of thought emerging.
I loved that they killed Snoke. That was one of my favorite parts of the movie. And not just because of that awesome fight directly after.
That is fine but financials don't lie. Revenue is down, Solo lost money, toy sales are down.
So somethings gon wrong and TLJ/Solo tend to get the flak for it. TFA and Rogue One largely avoid it and Rebels seems popular so except for the most hard core it doesn't even seem to be Disney vs Non Disney Star War's just mostly 1 movie.
I have a lot of the old EU stuff (except toys). By that comics, books, RPGs, games. New stuff not a sausage although I have seen the movies. Mostly its not because I am boycotting Star Wars its just I don't want to do it all over again (1993-2012 or so).
Its not like the Aftermath Trilogy or the new EA games are actually better than the old Star Wars stuff. Hell I play a mod for a 2005 game Empire at War called Thrawns Revenge.
Just overall I don't think the franchise is in a good spot.
