    Isn’t the “Skywalker Saga” encompassing all nine ‘mainline’ movies, the ones with episode numbers? Not saying most are good… but at least some of them aren’t turbo-shit.

      I guess that’s true. I just conflate the new name with the new publications. Making the whole thing about Skywalkers is just more Disney playing it ‘safe’ with regurgitated ideas. It could have been the “Journal of the Whills” or a number of other things that would have described a different arc.

      For posterity: the OT was a magic blend of story, FX, and semi-camp, the PT was a good story told poorly, and the ST was insane ravings told beautifully.
