But I’d rather this show didn’t have any loose threads in the end.
I would agree about wanting it to be self-contained, if it hadn’t already had part of its main plot happen in a different show…
True, but at least BOBF was a spin-off show from The Mandalorian, and I’m getting the impression that we’re getting a Favreau mini-verse as it was, with Filoni’s cartoon strongly tied to it as well. So, yes, it’s clear that it won’t all be completely self-contained, which of course is pretty hard seeing as all SW is based on the OT anyhow, and in this case the PT as well, but I’m still hoping they’ll focus on past and present continuity and not leave things overly open-ended for future continuity.
