Star Wars has always been a kids film, I’ve gradually outgrown it and now we’re done. I enjoyed and liked the force awakens, similarly rogue one and even the solo movie; but the last jedi and rise of skywalker have put the nail in the coffin. I sat through all the prequel trilogy and put them in the same box as the Crystal Skull, ‘time to hand the baton over George’ but the transfer has been far from smooth and I think there’s some cynical executives at Disney who want my cash and don’t care about the bilge served up.
