The Force Awakens and its follow-ups had so few memorable characters, it’s a wonder Disney – and Oscar Isaac – are still talking about potential spin-offs

Entertainment doesn't need to be good anymore.

As we use more and more electronic distractions, we start to leave streaming on all say while we work, play, etc..

This means people aren't really paying attention, so the streams just play and generate cash, with people not noticing that the quality has dropped

Why why pay top dollar to make programs when they can just dribble out pablum to stream.

So we get dumb crap with bad writing and childish titles.
