I still object to the idea that the last Jedi screwed up Star Wars.
It nailed the Lore and it nailed the failure of the Jedi as a religion. Reading Treverrows treatment for IX wild have continued this Jedi as failed religion new path required and moved the story forward.
I realize that some people wanted the happy ending and the idea that Luke would be a flawed Jedi is not palatable but if Luke wasn’t flawed then this Trilogy did not need to exist.
