The Star Wars franchise fucking sucks open ass
It’s like they took the worst shit from Star Trek and ramped it up to 10. Everything about this series of movies blows. That is all.

The only good thing about star wars is the model work from the original trilogy, which is honestly phenomenal. ILM really knocked it out of the park with everything from the sets to the props to the models and sounds.
Oh and some of the video games it spawned are fun.
Oh! And the concept of "old future" is cool, but I guess that's not unique to Star Wars.
It spawned the greater Lucas group of companies which included LucasArts, Industrial Light & Magic, and Skywalker Sound and created THX and Pixar. It created the expanded universe model and was the primary driver behind the popularisation of sci-fi conventions. It was the first franchise to meaningfully leverage licensing for action figures, games, and other merchandise (not necessarily a good thing but maybe because it drastically increased movie budgets and production quality). It has also been a major contributor to independent film festivals, regularly hosting them at Skywalker Ranch. The innovations of the Star Wars franchise have been central to the industry for the past 40 years. Cinema and fandom would look a lot different without Star Wars.
