Was my memory wiped or was the Star Wars sequel trilogy just that forgettable? (www.theguardian.com)

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

I was 11 years old and I felt when the Ewoks arrived that it felt like a blatant ploy to get young kids involved and like it was leaving behind the fans that by that time were clearly too old for the teddy bears. It probably didn't hurt the Lucas had all of the merchandising rights. To be honest I want real happy with him showing us Vader's face either. I think NOT seeing it made him more menacing. Showing him removed all doubt and just,I don't know, dimished the effect. Just MHO.
