"Star Wars" fans are notoriously difficult to please, but some complaints stand out as notorious missteps just about anyone can agree represent huge mistakes.

just my 2 cents...

I remember in about 1998 buying the VHS special edition trilogy

then the DVD's came out. then the special edition of the VHS trilogy came out with different packaging. then a special edition of the DVD's came out

then the Blu Ray probably came out, in standard packaging and special packaging

there's milking it, then there's milking it

They forgot to mention exactly why Solo bombed so bad. "The Last Jedi" was a shock to a lot of Star Wars fans and made them realize Disney had hoodwinked them for at least 5 years (since they bought Lucasfilm). Solo came out just a few months after TLJ, and the pain and anger caused by the previous film was still fresh in people's minds. So pair that with using a really crappy backstory for Solo (as well as using a mediocre actor that looks nothing like Harrison Ford and did a terrible rendition of Han) while completely ignoring the much better story from the trilogy of books that came out in the 90s, and you had a perfect storm for a Star Wars movie bomb.
