Is Star Wars Dead? | A Video Essay

Is Star Wars dead? That's the question I've been asking myself ever since Disney took over Lucasfilm back in 2012. What was once the most exciting franchise in cinema has slowly become one of the most divisive — and I think it's time we talked about why. In this video essay, I break down the full timeline of Disney's Star Wars era — from the highs of The Force Awakens and Rogue One, to the disaster of The Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker, to the ongoing debate surrounding The Mandalorian & Grogu and what it means for the future of Star Wars on the big screen. I also discuss what Disney and Lucasfilm are doing wrong, what they've done right, and most importantly — what needs to change for Star Wars to earn back the trust of its fanbase.
