[QUOTE="jedisearcher, post: 419608, member: 3582"] Personally I think they're going to need a whole big dose of originality very soon. TFA got a pass from most people simply because it was such a long time since we'd had any SW even though it was ANH rehashed, Rogue One is a story which isn't new (in that we know the beginning and the end), Han Solo isn't a new concept, etc etc. You can already feel that some of Ep8 will be like ESB (training for Rey and Ren, a love story, probably some kind of family reveal, throw in some First Order hunt for Luke etc.), and then God help us, an Ep9 redemption story, or at the least some kind of Snoke reveal/confrontation. Wouldn't it be nice to go to the cinema and get something new? I don't know whether they're scared to do something really original but sooner or later people are going to start demanding it by not putting their bums on the seats. It's not people like us they need to satisfy to make proper money, it's the much more casual cinema-goers who couldn't give a crap about origin stories for characters who are either so familiar to everyone, or they just don't care about.
