I enjoyed it. Not as much as the Mandalorian, but that’s okay. It was still a good time and a nice little bridge between Mando season 2 and 3.

People really need to stop projecting so many expectations onto Star Wars. Actually modern fandoms need to do that in general, I swear there’s not a single fandom
nowadays where the fanbase collectively enjoys more than 1% of its content.

Life is more fun if you learn to just sit back and enjoy the ride, instead of picking everything apart and fixating on how you’d have personally handled various details.

BOBF was a mess, dude. Good that you and others liked it, but it’s super normal people being disappointed with this series, because it is disjointed. It’s not about “fixating on how you’d have personally handled various details”, the producers could surprise us with something we don’t expect and that could be awesome, but the series is weak in various aspects that users here already pointed out. It’s not people’s fault if writing in other shows are bad, either.

Well, all I can say is I disagree. Enjoyment is all subjective, and how much you enjoy things is based as much on your state of mind as anything else.

I’m just over the whole “Does it suck or does it not suck” conversation that swallows up almost all discussion of anything in any fandom. What does it matter? What does it accomplish? Okay so not every story is perfect, not every writer is equally as gifted, not every gifted writer hits a perfect home run every time, oh well. Why not just focus on the good things, try to see things from the perspective of what the writer was going for and immerse yourself in the fantasy as though it were real, instead of picking it apart from a meta perspective? It’s more fun that way.
