Yeah, Star Wars was a complete unknown before Reddit. And Disney is not a marketing behemoth that put their full weight behind the new movies. Reddit neckbeards and bots are the real taste makers.
Star wars had driven itself into a corner until Disney picked it up and the Marvel franchise was questionable at best before the Ironman movie.
Its easy to do as you are doing and pretend these things were inevitable. Ignore what I'm saying to your own ignorance and peril.
People like to pretend Star Wars didn't suck before Disney took over.
I'm here to tell you: Episodes 1-3.
