@rancid-schnitzel i think Disney have very much proven they do know what their doing in regards to the TV universe, my understanding is Feloni is overseeing or at least a a producer on all the shows
I only mention the hate that other character have got (jar jar, rose, finn etc) because you said you didn't like him and asked the question "Did anyone who watched R1 want to find out more about him?"...and i thought yes, i think some people did and that he at least was not on the list of "never want to hear about him again" characters as far as i know

To be fair, we've seen one TV series so far.
I never said I hated him and would never place him in the same league as Jar Jar or Rose. Or Locksmith Gimp. I just don't think there is much interest or excitement regarding him. A meh character so to speak. I feel that with such a ridiculously vast array of characters and storys to choose from, it's kind of underwhelming to base a series around a guy who's story has really already been told. But well see...A bit of Googling tells me that Rogue Squadron has been removed from the production schedule. That's one I was looking forward to so rather pissed off. They just can't seen to get the film thing right.

@rancid-schnitzel i think it might just be not for you, as i say i think he was actually reasonably popular and dont remember much surprise when it was announced
hadn't heard about rogue squadron, had a google and it looks like a delay till 2023 with filming planned for 2022 so fingers crossed

Probably waiting to see if she can redeem herself after that terrible Wonder Woman movie.

@crucial did she write that too? not a fan of the story in general, really liked most of the first one though
She didn't write the good one. Although she did write and direct Monster, so hopefully she's learned from the last one. So terrible.

I'm very meh about the Andor series. A decidedly mediocre character who is dead and I couldn't give a crap about his back story. I suppose that robot was cool but not worth watching for.
I do hear you but refer to my previous post. My boys and I discussed this and perhaps a lead character with no particularly amazing abilities ( seriously, Han and Lando had wits and charm to go with scrapping ability, this guy has nothing ) MIGHT make for a compelling show. We’ll see.
Mando and anyone who hangs with him can make mincemeat out of hordes of troopers ( seriously, how many did he, Fennic and Boba take out in the episode in which Grogu got kidnapped, over 50 surely ) but to Andor they would be more of a threat. Of course the issue there is that he ends up looking like a pussy.
@Kiwiwomble yeah Tattooine has been done to death and it’s about to be thrashed again with the Fett and Obi Wan shows.
There is potential there, but I just don't like him. Zero charisma and physically unimposing to a ridiculous degree. Maybe there is something there but building a series around this guy seems odd to me. Did anyone who watched R1 want to find out more about him?
Now you mention it, no. He was just a bloke who succeeded in his mission with a shitload of help from others then they all died.
We had a whole ( admittedly awesome ) movie about it. Probably no need to delve further. Like I said, I’ll still watch and hope for the best though.

You forgot Holdo.
Laura Dern in full Karen mode with purple hair. It looks fucked up and extremely offensive to us fans when it’s written down, I can’t believe it actually made it on to the big screen in a STAR WARS movie no less.

The sequels are absolute trash. A total abomination. I hope and pray they will retcon them one beautiful day.

anyone posted this? would be so awesome, not far from just being able to be cut straight into the OG movie

Yeah I saw that a while back, a fight scene that doesn;t look like two geriatrics arguing over who's shot is next at croquet!

@machpants obi wan is supposed to be like 60 i think and vader maybe 40's but also mainly robot....so not exactly bouncing
and doing flips off the walls like we see in the prequels....but yes, much better than the original fightyes, it still needs some work, there is one point where avder has his sword pushing down on obi's...he could just swing it across and take off his head but theyre hitting a pose
