So I have had time to absorb Disney's Star Wars version 9 and then took a shower and got what I could off. Disney's vision of Star Wars was nothing more than a joke. And not a funny one. In a way it seemed to me that Disney did to Star Wars what Rick Berman did to Star Trek, destroyed it.
So JJ Abrams came in and saved Star Trek with 09 the first movie, but alas he failed iwth Star Wars, because Disney had gutted it.
So is there a save for Star Wars?
Yes, but it requires time travel, in a manner of speaking.
To the year 1991, just prior to that year a man named Zahn worked with Lucas Films and George to produce three novels, which by all rights was episode 7, 8 & 9. However when Disney bought Lucas Arts they scrapped the 3 books and trashed the last 3 movies. The 3 Zahn books are still considered the final work on Star Wars by the fans of the 1970's - 1980's without any doubts, and they actually follow the story picking up 5 years where Return left off.
Much has been written on Zahn and I could not post anything here to add to it, but here are some interesting links
