That's they're biggest crime innthe end.
Stories are immortal and IP laws are fake and gay. Star Wars will always live on due to those facts.
But the big three reuniting is an opportunity that HAS been squandered forever with no possible recourse. That chance is gone forever.

I hate the whole subversion of expectations. It can be done well but to praise something simply because it’s different is stupid. Critics saying “well everyone expected Luke to be heroic”. In Game of Thrones the showrunners said they couldn’t have Jon kill the Night King because it was expected.
