Star Wars: The Last Jedi for me. I don't remember details, but I remember liking it and thinking it was nice to bring original things to the saga (especially because episode VII was almost a tribute to episode IV). Then fans complained and they reverted a lot of themes and things 💔.
TLJ is easily the best non-OT Star Wars movie.
Most of the whining about it is either shit people made up (Luke drinking milk directly from the alien's udder and smiling erotically into the camera*), shit they didn't take two seconds to even try to understand (like how the "Mary Poppins" effect is actually a realistic portrayal of how things move in zero-G vacuum, or how humans don't just explode in space like they do in shitty B-movies**), or criticisms that could be equally leveled at basically any Star Wars movie (weird pacing, minor plot holes, inconsistent "rule of cool" logic for tech and magic).
Once the typical reactionary fanboy-didn't-get-exactly-what-he-expected dies down I think it'll be recognized as one of the franchise's higher points. TLJ's worst sin is being situated between two JJ Abrams hack jobs.
*no I'm not making this up someone unironically described it to me this way with a straight face.
**not making this up either, people i've talked to legit seem to think one atmo of negative pressure turns the human body into a meat bomb or something.
