Andor proved Star Wars can be more than death stars and laser swords, and he wants the franchise to start acting like it.

    Yes, if they used the franchises to really develop fully flushed out universes and tell new stories, then great! The problems start when franchises are used to “guarantee” sales/viewership while lazily rehashing the same stories and characters and pumping out mediocre high budget slop. I really loved Andor.

    How Disney fucked up this universe I will never understand. Andor and Rogue One along with the mandalorian is the only good thing disney made. Stop with all this starwars slop! You killing me!

    A new hope came out in 1977, 48 years ago. My favorite era was all of the EU books and comics and video games that came out between rotj and episode 1 with all of the various authors and creators building and exploring stories and characters within the universe. Disney has a few good series, but they’ll continue to strangle the IP until it becomes public domain/commons.
