I doubt anything Star Wars is going to go forward until KK is shown the door.
My understanding was the last guy in charge gave the green light to waaaay too many Star Wars and Marvel projects. With Iger back at the helm, he's pulling back on the reigns big time and focusing on the cash cows.

Which Naboo representative do you think the Jedi was friends with? I'm hoping for a parent trap moment.

Everything, and I mean everything that is currently happening with both Star Wars and Marvel was Greenlit under Iger BEFORE he "left." - Bob Capek was only on the job for 10 months before the board removed him. Bob Capek's biggest "changes" were directly related to the parks.

i think the problem with star wars movies is they think they have to be some grand story that spans 3 movies. Just make 1 movie with a decent story with a loosely known jedi. I didn't know I wanted it til today, but I would love an action adventure/rescue movie with Jedi Master Kelleran Beq.

Mandalorian and Bad Batch both were very entertaining this week. They are starting to set up the cliff hangers for the end of the seasons.

I want to see baby yoda waddle around in a mandalorian helmet.

I watched a video last night with some history professor pointing out all of the similarities between Mandalorians and Jewish people. Kind of interesting. Is Favreau Jewish?

Some were saying Christian allegories early on. It was contrasting some of the eastern philosophies that the Jedi are often associated with. Now it looks like they are going for a Moses vibe.

I've seen basically nothing new of Star Wars except the movies. I watched the Obi Won series a few months back but that was it. Does everything revolve around order 66? That is kind of the joke I hear and read. The Obi Won series was ok, episodes 7, 8 & 9 were frankly not good. 7 was ok but it was an episode 4 reboot. Rogue One was great though!

Based on an article I just read, I am not the only one that is kind of fed up with Star Wars at this point.

Watch Andor and Mando. Andor is one of my favorite shows ever and Mando isn't too far behind

Not to mention the Ahsoka show is going to come out later this year and I think Filoni is going to blow people’s minds.

What others have said if you like rogue one you will like andor. It's an amazing show for have zero jedis in it.

I've had fun watching the Mandalorian. Boba Fett seemed better once I convinced myself it was really just The Mandalorian Season 2 1/2. Rogue One was great. I actually didn't hate Solo.

I won’t be satisfied until we see Grogu wield the dark saber.
