Part 7/10:
Lucasfilm's attempt to revive interest with projects like Willow have failed spectacularly, with the series being canceled after poor ratings and reception. The Galactic Star Cruiser, Disney’s ambitious but disastrous Star Wars-themed hotel experience, also ended in failure, further exemplifying how the studio's missteps have eroded fan trust.
