I never expected this movie to be too bad, just unnecessary like Rogue One. So more of a "Why?" when there's so much potential for spin-offs in the Star Wars movies than these stories that can be told better in a comic or novel, heck even a tv show.

I likely won't watch it until it's on Netflix or the like, Ep. IX is likely the last SW movie I'll watch in theaters unless future movies really hype me up with the trailers.

As far as:
Spoiler:
Darth Maul I think they're wasting him here instead of having him be an actual threat or whatever in a different movie. Same with Vader in Rogue One, he deserved his own spin-off doing bad-ass stuff instead of shoehorning him in to make this story that no one wanted to see have more of an "umph".

Still it's cool to see Maul in a movie again, so I guess I"ll take what I can get. I liked Vader in RO too, it's just the circumstances of them wasting away potential that angers me

The average fan that goes to the movies isn't going to watch a show aimed at kids.
