Huge news I’m in. If Filoni and crew have sway this is all a good thing.
Huge marvel news too.
Don’t want to sidetrack the thread but The Mandalorian has been fantastic this year. If these can maintain that standard Disney+ will be worth the subscription fee even for those of us without kids.

I’ve enjoyed Mando again this season, with the exception that the episodes are too short!

Mandalorian finale was phenomenal last night. The whole episode had me on the edge of my seat, that is what Star Wars can be, it was just great.

Deseret News: ‘The Mandalorian’ will lead into ‘Star Wars’ sequel trilogy, Jon Favreau says.
Didn’t want to start a new thread, but wanted to talk about it. Andor was so good it’s stupid. If you haven’t watched it, I highly recommend it. If you like Star Wars, you’ll love it. If you don’t like star wars, it’s still fascinating, and you don’t need to know the backstories.
Andor is really really good and shows what SW can be if done smartly. If the IP hadn’t been so totally trashed by the sequel series and substandard trash like acolyte and ahsoka Andor would be a huge hit. That trash ran so many fans off from the franchise.
The skeleton crew was greet for kids and andor is a hit for an adult audience. They CAN make good Star Wars stuff.

Dang, I might have to watch Andor season 2 now. I’ve been so over Marvel and Star Wars the past couple of years.
I’ve heard that’s it’s painfully slow. Seems to overall be considered good, but very slow paced.
There’s also a scene in it that stirred some controversy. I think in one of the first few episodes of the season.
I may give it a try. I never finished season 1 though. Pacing issues made me drop out.
Well season 2 episode 8 was probably the best sci-fi show I have ever seen. Patience is a virtue sometimes. Andor is admittedly a slow build but it is definitely worth it. Go watch the episode and don’t worry about the who and why’s. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
Ep. 9 tells us how Mon Motha became a rebellion leader.
First 3 episodes this year were slow but they laid the tracks down to take us to Rogue One. I think Andor is easily the best Star Wars spin off and it ain’t even close. But I also believe Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie. So take that for what it is worth.

I’ve heard that it’s slow as well but that it pays off. I haven’t watched the last couple of shows but the word of mouth is so good I might give it a shot. One reviewer that’s been (rightfully imo) extremely critical of Disney’s Star Wars said the latest episode was the best since the OT.
It is slow - but it pays off the slow burn.
Dude I don’t want to oversell it, but if I talk about it I will. Really good stuff.
