I used to think people who said this were over reacting but after the last Jedi I really started seeing this. Especially when I saw how it’s nearly impossible to make something that appeals to boys/men now. I mean you would think a He-Man reboot is a slam dunk for men who watched it and their sons.
I've never gone though the 5 stages of grief so fucking fast as when that movie ended, and I managed to go through all 5 of them in just the credits for ME3!
This seems to be a common occurrence. I watched TFA in theaters, TLJ as a rental (remember renting movies?), and have never and have no intention to watch TROS.
TFA I went with my dad and brother and either before or after we spoke about seeing the others together when they came out.
I ended up seeing TLJ in the cinema alone, and while I have no idea if my brother has seen TROS I know my dad has, but he's quite literally a retired boomer with more time and money than sense so inevitably ends up seeing really shit productions because advertising campaigns don't reveal just how shit things are.
Our entire entertainment industry has become a coping mechanism for women.

Edit: I've still not seen TROS. And I never will.
