    Disney Is Resetting the Star Wars Franchise

    I grew up with the originals. I hate Episodes 1-3 and always will (they were kids' movies). I deeply dislike the "enhanced" versions of the originals (sure, fix some things, but don't add or change shit). I actually like The Force Awakens, love Rogue One, and love Solo. All three were...
