There's this odd urge to turn Star Wars into some type of sci-fi besides big budget planetary romance. So there's the attempt to treat it like military sf, or political drama, or what have you, and it just isn't any good at it. It's old timey knights and princesses having big emotional adventures in weird and fantastic spaces, and SW is pretty good at that. Not great, but as good as you're probably gonna get given the utter collapse of the genre simce the 1970s. But it's just compromised at everything else, because no matter how much you layer on top, the base layer is still the fate of the entire galaxy depending on the daddy issues of a couple dudes with the world's most dangerous glowsticks.
