The Last Jedi was the best The Last Knight was dogshit

This movie did so poorly that Paramount Pictures is now debating whether or not to continue making big budget movies. And the CEO just stepped down.

Well, Rise of the Beasts reportedly has a budget of 200 million, so they can't have given up just yet.

Pfft. Yeah, tell that to the diminishing returns of Rise of Skywalker and bombing of Solo.

Except there's plenty of threequels that outgrossed their predecessors. Off the top of my head:

Spider-Man 3
Spider-Man: No Way Home
X-Men: The Last Stand
Captain America: Civil War
Iron Man 3
Thor: Ragnarok
Avengers: Infinity War
The Dark Knight Rises
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King

all say hi. Also Transformers: Dark of the Moon made more than Transformers (2007). Clearly "diminishing returns" is an outdated concept when describing threequels.
At least Revenge of the Sith rebounded after Attack of the Clones. Rise of Skywalker couldn't even do that, and took longer than it should have for a Star Wars movie to (barely) reach $1 billion in the modern market.

Well, as LanceDance pointed out, diminishing returns doesn't apply to all threequels.
Also, what's your excuse behind Solo's failure then, huh? Because it's been said that audience's disappointment with The Last Jedi was the main reason.
