Star Wars, and the franchise George Lucas created was the most profitable bit of intellectual property to come out of Hollywood. Harry Potter, and The Lord of the Rings started as books. Star Wars was an original story not based on an existing property. Disney has destroyed it.
From the Girl Boss™ to "subverting expectations" (for heroes to be heroic) they took a blockbuster movie franchise, and turned it into a series of TV shows, running on struggling streaming service, that no one cares about.
Be sure you watch Number 5: "The Firing of Gina Carano."

And the truth remains Kathleen Kennedy and her ilk broke the money-printing machine that was Star Wars. Taking an intellectual property that could have lasted forever, and stamped it with an expiration date that has passed.
And it looks like turning Star Wars from a "Boy Brand," that everyone can enjoy, into a "Girl Brand" no one can enjoy has proven to be the costliest decision in movie history.
