In fairness- many fans were so upset that the Disney films didn’t follow the novels and comics- but some of the elements that get criticized so harshly are the ones that actually came from the previous canon- like Palpetine coming back. And the children (child in the films) of Han Solo and Leigha defeating him. In the comics they had much more lead up to it- but that’s usually the case. I doubt if they ever made a One Piece movie they’d make some odd thousand four hour films as opposed to cutting it down into a format like a trilogy or two. X men and other Marvel movies also condense and simplify events from comics for screen.

But maybe it doesn’t defeat the purpose of the previous films? Maybe it reframes them. If the prequels are WW1- lots of intricate politics that many people don’t understand and so on... and the original trilogy is WW2- the “big” war of “good vs evil” with this grand scale and all these changes that fundamentally reshape everything after into an almost unrecognizable form- then we could view the Disney films as the wars after. These previous generations fought this great battle against evil so their kids could have a better world and not need to fight- and... well... look around you IRL right now. Ooopise.
