I think they are leveraging nostalgia for the prequels and the Filoni Clone Wars cartoon.

I not sure I want similar done for the OT. I’m over the deepfakes. I would probably give recast actors a watch, like the Alden Solo movie. But they are so set in their ways of wanting these cgi de-aging and deepfakes.

And Star Wars is stuck in the nostalgia and not moving forward. Is there somewhere to move foreward to in terms of story, post Rise of Skywalker?

Since the OT era is clearly over. Actors have aged out, others have died. The Gen X fans grip on the franchise isn’t forever.
