It makes them less special
And star wars should be special
Rogue One does look better than TFA
But Disney is basically going to whorez the franchise out

I think that at this pace Disney is at risk of overexposing the Star Wars brand.
I can see tv series, books, comics, but the movie lineup might be a little two much.
You have the TFA official timeline, you just had rogue one, they are talking about a han solo prequel as well, this is too much.

Who said too much money? try to learn and read.
I said they are at risk of devaluing the property they bought due to overexposure, nothing more and nothing less.

The 'value' only goes down if they have disappointing box office numbers or you don't release movies when you could. Look up 'opportunity cost'.

The value is the brand star wars, its a brand that had value with only 6 movies over 40 years.
A star wars movie or movie series was an EVENT.
If you release them every 2 years, the movie and the series is no longer an event.

Now I can see two strategies, you paid 2 billion for it, you look to recoup money on the investment ASAP and you take the route Disney is going.
I think the better safer risk is to continue the brand as it was through Lucas, each series or addition to the franchise remaining an event. They still get money through licensing, books, and alternative media, but you keep the brand strong.

Just my opinion though.
