Not quite, they announce/hint a lot of new movies that we never heard of it again, they released 5 movies but announce/hint at least 10 more if you count Obi-Wan and Boba Fett that were supposed to be movies.

Well I meant that in the 70s-80s there were 3 movies, and then in the 90s-00s we got 3 movies, so like every 20-30 year gap.

But we got 5 movies in recent times. I don't know if Kenobi and Book of Boba Fett were supposed to be movies though, I never heard anything other than them being shows. I initially thought that Book of Boba Fett would've been part of the Mandalorian show too, which frankly would've made more sense. I do prefer the shows though, it gives so much more world and character building and things don't feel as rushed, although not every show has been good with it.

I do know about a few planned upcoming movies that were put on hold, and I'm not sure if Rian Johnson's movies are still happening, I was really looking forward to see what he could do with an own dedicated trilogy.
