STAR WARS! STAR WARS! STAR WARS

So some context to that picture. The Acolyte might be the one I'm most excited for. It is written and directed by Russian Doll creator, Leslye Headland. It will take place in the High Republic era and will deal with a character who is drawn toward the dark side. It will be the first fully independent of the Skywalker line Star Wars vehicle.

Rangers of the New Republic and Ahsoka are spin offs of the Mandalorian era. No info given but both are written by Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau.

Bad Batch is an animated series set right after the fall of the Republic in Revenge of the Sith.

Star Wars: Visions is 10 Japanese anime stories set in or inspired by the Star Wars universe.

Andor is a spy series based on Rogue One character Cassian Andor.

Obi Wan Kenobi is set 10 years after Sith. Hayden Christensen was announced as returning as Darth Vader.

Lando is being developed by the Dear White People creator. I'd imagine Donald Glover's version of Lando and not Billy Dee.

Rogue Squadron is being directed by Patti Jenkins. No real details.

They said Taika is still developing his Star Wars movie.

Very interesting that no trilogies are in the works. Probably a good thing.

I'm excited for the Willow series. I loved that movie as a kid and wanted more of them. Warwick Davis will return.

Just popped on here to see if anyone had shared Patty Jenkins video of her 'Rogue Squadron' announcement. Talk about a bad ass announcement. I love Star Wars but dont have the connection to it that a lot of people have, and even I thought it was a goosebump moment at the end.

 
I'm as Star Wars nerdy as they come and I just couldn't do Clone Wars. There's something about a prequel with existing characters that I know absolutely make it out alive that just makes it hard to get into. There's a guide online of relevant or good episodes. I've watched some of the Mandalore ones which were good. I did watch the final season with the Bad Batch and Ahsoka. It was very enjoyable.

For my money, you can't go wrong with Rebels. It takes about middle of season one to find its legs but after that it's a great ride and more indicative of what Star Wars should feel like. They tend to keep the winks to more of a minimum and it's more geared as Clone Wars callbacks.
 
I’m very excited for the series finale tonight ..this has become my favourite show since Game of Thrones finished

just watched it and did not expect that
WIth the recap at the beginning repeating the connection to a jedi thing, i expected a jedi to come to the rescue. I did not think they´d go as far as to bring in luke. but i give them that young liúke ooked pretty great. But its a sad ending with baby yoda leaving with skywalker. We´ll see if the series still works withouth the baby yoda - mandalorian chemistry. nice pot credit trailer for the book of boba fett.
 
After wanting to try and start the Mandalorian for a long time now I finally did it. And I’m fully in. Because The Child is the best thing. The second I saw it I was giddy.
 
So just watched that finale

So I hate hate hate this CGI bollocks, either recast or leave the character out.

They should just leave the Mandelorian there, perfect end point, there is no need fo more, go tell the other stories.

Also as a series this was pretty weak. It was 16 good set pieces that flimsily tied together.
 
I spoiled a bit just from headlines this morning,

Considering Mandalorian took all the promise of “Boba Fett tv show” and shed itself (mostly) of the fan service and franchise-beholden lore of actually having Boba Fett in a show...I’m not thrilled about a Boba Fett show. At least, not yet.

I really hate this stuff too. It’s why I wasn’t into Rogue One
