Thaw was unexpected, would assume that everything that had the Star Wars name in it would be a hit.

So over the weekend, I got personally invited to joining the local Rebel Legion group in my city.
Unfortunately, due to work and time I had to decline.

There is. I'm friends with some of the people from the 501st. Division. They were out at our local cinema for the premier of "Solo". A couple years ago for the premier of TLJ, they had a guy who was cosplaying as Darth Maul and I went up to him and said "Dude! You need to keep away from Ezra Bridger!" We both had a good laugh because that episode of Rebels had just came out.

Yes saw them once, the Netherlands chapter of the 501st Legion who where dressed up in full storm trooper gear at the showing of The Last Jedi at a large cinema somewhere in the Netherlands.

Yeah, it's a flop, but personally I doubt that it has much to do with "SJW pandering". I suspect the biggest cause was that it was released at the wrong time: only five months after The Last Jedi (so there wasn't much appetite for more Star Wars anyway), and going up against Deadpool 2 and Infinity War (whereas the previous Star Wars movies had no real competition in their opening weeks).

I think it was a combination of Things that killed Solo, of which SJW pandering and a bad release date were just two of. The others were: - the previous SW Movie being The Last Jedi (which did not exactly have stellar reviews and managed to kill all hype for the franchise). - Few to nobody was interested in Han Solo's backstory. - Solo itself being not all that good. - Lucasfilm attacking the fanbase by calling them misoginistic racists.
