It’s funny because for so many years I couldn’t wait for a live action Star Wars TV show, but that’s only because I thought that’d be the only live action SW content we’d ever get. Ultimately I’m excited we can have pieces of media that live alongside the saga like this and take the franchise in different directions, but it’s hard for me to care about it as much at the main saga. As a movie/tv fan I don’t mind, because there’s always the potential it could be better than Star Wars as we know it - but as a Star Wars fan looking forward to more Star Wars, to me something like this isn’t really Star Wars, more like Star Wars adjacent.

RO was very okay, so I’m pleased that while Fraser is involved (easily the best part of that film), seemingly none of the rest of that movie’s creative team is (save Kennedy, naturally). Interested to see what Favreau and the rest do with it. At the moment, I’ve got high hopes.
