AUUUGH.

The world has SO MUCH depth.

The people they had the most important creative control to are the ones with no depth! Or fear of depth!

I can't express this enough: I HATE Star Wars movies. They had me with the new series. The first one was... fine, but seemed like it might do something different. The second one was ballsy as fuck and I adored it. The third one was like a pre-existing noose finally tightening.

The people running the most important projects in Star Wars are fucking weenies. They're too scared to do anything interesting with the franchise. That last movie in the latest trilogy was the perfect example of that. They tried something new, the fandom seems to hate? new? things?? (wtf) and so they hightailed it and ran back to their comfort zone. Deeper into their comfort zone, even!

The peripheral pieces for this world are amazing. The books, the art books, the creature design, the alien cultures. It's all fascinating and beautiful and so worth exploring. That's the stuff that shows the depth available in this world.

But so long as a bunch of weenies are running the show, the big stuff is never going to be any good. They won't allow it. Partly because of this weird as fuck fandom that apparently hates new ideas and literally any divergence from what they saw when they were seven. (Which, let's repeat, is fucking weird.)
