I didn't hate Solo, but it's really disappointing that Disney is throwing away a whole bunch of ridiculously good IP.

One example is the Knights of the Eternal Empire trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkgzXpKbVGE). I want to see that story. I felt more in this 5 minute trailer than I felt all throughout The Last Jedi. That can be said for pretty much all of the trailers from The Old republic.

I've like all the trailers for SWTOR (and enjoyed playing the game), but trailers are different from movies, they are telling a short story without any details, which, expanded on a full-length movie, would be on the same level as the Disney movies.

See, but with Disney, at least there's an outside chance they try an Old Republic movie. So long as Lucas held the keys, nothing at all was going to be made except for cartoons mistakingly marketed at children. And books that had a limited audience.

My question to you: Have they thrown it away by making Solo? It all still exists, and they're apparently full-steam ahead making new products with that IP.

Completely agree. There's thousands of years of stories in the universe - why keep focusing on the same 100? Anything from the old republic or some ancient Sith history would be fresh and new (for the cinema), and very welcome. But I guess we're just fans of good storylines and not the targets of the Disney marketing machine.

Oh wow. Why couldn't we have had this instead? The emotional payload of this 5 minute trailer was greater than hours of watching gungan turds, I mean every Star Wars movie made after the '80s.
