I think it depends how much you care about the source material. If you genuinely love and cherish it, it's hard to want to take risks, even those that might result in a better movie. There was probably some of that going on with the prequels.

If you care less about it, then you'll surely want to try new things, and if it doesn't work out, no big deal.

Wow. "You obviously don't love Star Wars as much as me if you like The Last Jedi" is a heck of a take.

Most people who live the works of Beethoven aren't opining that they wish he took more risks in his work. They respect his canon for what it is. Some people are very glad we've moved on to new and different music and that's OK. Some people think it's trash and noise and classical music is real music. And that's ok, too. I don't mean to offend you. I think this is a universal dynamic in a field as subjective as art and entertainment.
