I’m exited for something that doesn’t take place within the same 50 year window of time.

Definitely 100% done with the resistance era, and any canon material that comes after it.

Kinda done with the clone wars era stuff, but at least there are still some niche avenues left unexplored.

Also definitely done with anything rule of two. The idea of it has ruined any chances of writing actually interesting dark side characters, because you’ll always see the same cycle of student-master power struggle.

It’s about time sith ideology was portrayed for what it is actually supposed to be, and not just “bad guys with red lightsabers”. Curious what this show will bring, but not quite convinced yet. Only thing that will definitely get that right is a truthful, both-sides, Old Republic era show covering all different factions of interest without presenting any one as morally superior.

Agreed. Here’s to hoping it will be closer to Andor than Ahsoka in terms of overall quality.

I agree, but that’s such a tough thing to read.

If you had asked me before either came out Andor or Ahsoka I’d have picked Ahsoka 10 out of 10 times.

That isn’t to say Ahsoka was bad, it was just fine, but Andor was absolutely amazing.

This show would be my third pick, so based on how bad I am at guessing this will be amazing.

I think from the trailers it was obvious which of those would be better. This smacks more of Ahsoka. Dear god let it not be Obi Wan.

Looks like a fan film that scrounged up enough money to hire Carrie Ann Moss. Jedi fighting, yawn.

I’m optimistic about it. I always have to remember that there is unlikely to be the run-time or episode count to soak in all the world-building and let the characters breathe, but if they have a decent story to tell, this certainly looks the part.

Alas they did not.

It had its moments, but overall I can’t disagree.
