    Naw, Rogue One was passable, never mind the few dumb fan service quips. Andor is straight up good. Mando was acceptable.

    The rest? Yeaaahh… Disney has added little quality to the universe. At least George expanded the universe in ways that felt natural to the universe, even if he did it like a huge dork.

    Disney keeps pulling a Hollywood and making things about grand spectacle with the thinnest of stories and actual plot holes everywhere. It’s … genuinely sad to see a multi BILLION dollar company squander and shit on such an expensive IP. You’d think they’d at least understand they paid a shitload for it and shouldn’t devalue it with garbage productions.

    Nah, doesn’t have to be such straight forward tit for tat crap. That’s far less interesting.

    For an example, they really dropped the ball in the Obi-Wan show. They could’ve made it a great story about how he basically HAD to become a Grey Jedi. Explore how the “goodie two shoes” aspect of the Jedi clashes with the real world. Put Obi-Wan through a ton of real-world situations where he HAS to go against the Jedi code to get any kind of positive result.

    SHOW how the Jedi are naive, don’t just declare it so and throw a supervillain at them.

    I mean, it makes much more sense if you analyze who the grinders are, too. The old ones were George NOT having full control, pulling inspiration from classics.

    The new ones were made by J.J Abrams, one of the most creatively bankrupt morons in Hollywood, pulling from his ass. He was smart enough to realize people like mysteries, but was never smart enough to figure out how to reveal a mystery or tie it in to an overarching story.
