Has it Gotten Worse or am I Just Too Old ?

Rating: 3/10 (28 January 2018)

The first three released Star Wars Movies were fantastic. When I left the theater after seeing the first one, I felt like I was returning from an adventure; the movie really pulled me in.
The last six Star Wars movies have become progressively worse until now I really don't want to see another. The last two were absolute disappointments. I do not care about the characters or the plot. Maybe I am just too old for this kind of movie. I am thoroughly tired of comic book heroes and plots that never develop to the point where I care. The new Star trek TV series is also completely uninteresting and maybe this is more indicative of my tastes changing but I don't think so.
I think that the people who made the older movies are no longer making them and a new crew that does not understand science fiction has taken over. It is sad to see this happen to such a fine genre.
