>>8632452Nah, can't be just the genre. You'd have regular people into the genre all over it but nowadays it's hated by anyone with some taste and mostly targeted at the scummiest of woke hipsters.
>>8632451Nostalgia, mixed with shit taste and willingness to ignore sacrifice of plot, aesthetics, characters for the sake of political ideology. Since quite a few movies, it's basically grabbing shit at random from the classic trilogy, except through the lens of social justice - Luke turned from wide-eyed youth that through effort and perseverence goes from zero to hero into a Mary Sue girl who owns at everything cause she has a vagina. Old characters killed or otherwise sent off. New characters either playing political correctness bingo (non-traditional gender roles, 'minorities', behavior fitting some agenda) or being edgier homages to old character (Kylo being discount Vader but without Vader's presence, instead with teenage tantrum and mental instability) - all of this is fine by current viewers as long as said agenda is upheld.
Tl;DR
