TLJ is the most disappointing Star Wars movie ever?
Its just not a credible statement.
Cable TV tanked us this weekend by just pretending the prequels didn't happen for the Thanksgiving Star Wars marathon this year, they understand it is a disappointment we need not bear anymore.

There’s a bit of a disconnect. The post he quoted was comparing the movies straight up. And the prequels are rightfully judged as historically awful.
But he changed the criteria and said most disappointing. That’s a big change. If you went into the prequels knowing they’re hot garbage you might not be disappointed when they turn out to be hot garbage. If you thought TFA and R1 set a new gold standard for modern Star Wars movies then TLJ could be way more disappointing. That’s way different than saying the prequels were better movies than TLJ. Anyone who says that is clearly a psychopath.
