    Rogue one and andor were amazing. Which tells me, Star wars can be great if they hire passionate directors/writers and stay the hell out of their way

      Lol, nobody got out of the way of the Rogue one director. A large portion of that movie was reshot and rewritten after the director was all but fired.

      And despite its troubles, I also enjoyed Solo on a second watch.

      But even The Mandalorian isn’t perfect. Some episodes were better than others. It was fine for a TV show. Same with Ahsoka. It’ll be interesting to see what they do with a bigger budget when the movie comes out.

        Solo would have been a success if they didn’t have to fire the directing duo and reshoot half the movie. It hugely inflated the cost of that film which made it a commercial failure in their eyes.
