I've enjoyed these new flicks for the most part, but I think Disney needs to take at least a 10 year break from doing any more SW movies or trilogies. Just continue with television for a while and build the brand back up again. Mandalorian is a lot of fun, so I hope they continue that series. The Obi-Wan series with Ewan MacGregor also sounds promising.
Then maybe come back in a few years time, hand the reins to someone like Jon Favreau or Kevin Feige and come up with a brand new story for a new trilogy or cinematic universe, with new characters, planets, ships, etc... Just give it a clean slate and come up with something totally fresh and original within that universe (again, the Mandalorian is doing a pretty solid job of this so far).
Granted, Star Wars fans will never be completely happy with anything and will still nit-pick it to death, but at least the filmmakers won't be shackled to the Skywalker saga any longer and can move on with something different.
