How Many Movies Do We Want a Year? : A Star Wars Discussion
We have kept our gloves on this week and took a break from our debate segment STAR WARS WARS. Instead, we had a lengthy discussion talking about many Star Wars movies we really want a year, and the factors that we think may play into what Lucasfilm ultimately decides to do going forward, from past production concerns/drama, to looking at what other franchises are doing like Marvel, and the ultimate question based on polls we ran BEFORE and AFTER The Last Jedi, do fans in general want more than one Star Wars movie a year??
How often do you want to see new Star Wars movies come out?

The Resistance Expanded Universe
This week in our fan/community segment, where we shed light on cool things created by Star Wars fans, we put the spotlight on https://www.astarwarscomic.com/, a digital fan made comic book series (with no official ties to Lucasfilm) that puts a spin on some side characters stories in six page issues! The art work is extremely well done and we all agreed, if we didn’t know any better, it could very well fit into the comics currently being made by official Lucasfilm publishers.

"For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is."
0.5 personally
one every 3 years I want star wars to be special again
It’s special because it is Star Wars, not because of artificial scarcity.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
And Star Wars was absent for many years. No more.
Depends who is making them.
Once every month. To coincide with pay day.
lol…too much
2 a year will kill Star Wars. 1 a year tops.
Once every 3 years…then break for 5 and start cycle over again. Keep them special and take your time with the stories!!!!
“How many GOOD Star Wars Movies do we want per year”
For me it depends on the quality, but mostly the story. At their current story quality level 2-3 years. Even then I would rather have none if they are going to keep the same story quality.
If they could get some good writers in then once a year is good.
They also need a quality TV series, live action.
As well as quality games, EA only cares about what they can microtransact or lootbox, not quality gameplay/story. BF2 story wasn’t bad, but literally has no replay value and takes < 4 hours to play through…the multiplayer is bland and has no long term potential. As for the other star wars games…oh wait there aren't any except mobile P2W/lootbox infested POS, Galaxy of Heros isn't bad, but it's P2W as hell.
One every two to three years for me. As others have said… if they somehow managed to consistently create a high quality movie. Then I could stomach more. I’d be on board for a GoT type of series. 10 epic episodes a year for however long it’d take to wrap up.
I’ve really enjoyed the one a year model. I hope they stick to it.
