I'm guessing Solo didn't go because people were mad at TLJ.

TLJ had a major negative impact on Solo, with the internet in full opposition.
It didn't help that the standalone movie didn't feature Harrison Ford at any point, which was a major mistake on their part. They could have easily included Harrison Ford as Solo along with Chewie and even Lando reminiscing about their first encounter, which likely would have been enough to draw people to the theaters.
It just seems to me that KK and her team at Lucasfilm have zero understanding as to how and why people connected with the OT more than 40 years ago and continue to do so today.
