It's the same problem that ghostbusters had. They took something white male geeks loved and gave it to women and minorities, and so they basement-dwellers rebelled.
They wouldn't have cared if they had done a shot for shot remake with Luke Skywalkers son, but because they gave it to women and minorities, suddenly rehashing the stuff they loved is just going /too/ far.

I'm not sure that explanation really fits the facts

Did you expect them from someone with a username like that?

Ghostbusters flopped because it was a piece of shit.

Also the prequels were hated and they had a white guy as the lead.

It was not a piece of shit! :|

Though I do think marketing was a huge issue. It wasn't really a remake and it seemed to be marketed that way, though I think it might have worked better if they'd had the old team like... passing the baton so to speak to the new team.

This definitely doesn't describe me. imo, the new characters were the best part of TFA. (Though I thought the film really should've spent more time exploring Finn's rejection of the First Order.) But the plot was so derivative and boring that even the new characters couldn't save the film for me.

And I loved Ghostbusters (2016).

I'm neither a guy nor a star wars fan and even I thought it was weird how it followed the originals. The points that were jarring weren't even crucial to the plot, it was more like - really, do we need another yoda, another r2d2? That couldn't have been other characters with the same role?

"That couldn't have been other characters with the same role?"

But...Maz and BB-8...were very different characters...from Yoda and R2...they just filled similar roles, as you said.
