I like Diego Luna and I think Andor is a fine character but I absolutely do not care about that show. I'm going to watch it, of course, but I don't expect it to be good.

Mandalorian season 3 isn't until February 2023, with Ahsoka following sometime later.

Jon Watts and Christopher Ford (and Favreau/Filoni also EPing) are making a show called Skeleton Crew, starring Jude Law and also coming out next year.

https://twitter.com/starwars/status/1529901534573568000

Apparently it also stars kids and is "as much for kids as Clone Wars" according to Filoni.

You're surprised that the company that has built its empire on running IP into the ground, which has already almost killed the Star Wars franchise with their garbage-ass sequel trilogy, is going to do it again? If Book of Boba Fett didn't show everyone that Disney doesn't give a crap about telling good stories, I don't know what will.

Pretty great start I think, smooth intro for ep1 then really getting into it with ep2... one issue though when Leia freaks out at Ben being a wanted man... the show's done a great job with her for the most part but it feels they made her beyond reasonably insightful when she instantly deduces that Ben is the reason she was captured simply because he's a wanted man... after he just freed her. The chase sequence that followed with her running away was also weird because of it and it's pretty bad they aren't just easily captured in that loud chaos. Then she falls and the enemies' heavy pressure just stops here? Yeah this sequence took me out a bit.

Came back strong though to close for the week, I'm definitely interested in Reva's deal, she's obsessed with Kenobi and they hint about she's of a lower class but there's gotta be more here. Wasn't expecting her to just Qui-Gon the inquisitor either and it definitely brought me back to the hype. Not really sure where the show goes from here, Kenobi & Leia's gotten away so they can just... go home yeah? Leia's great but I can't imagine she's that heavily focused in this, I think.

Feel pretty much the same as you, GMUN. The part where she freaks out because he's wanted is weird. Like I get that they set up that she's really intelligent but that just seemed a bit much.

And yeah the part where Reva just murks the grand inquisitor was super unexpected. I was legit shocked at that lol. I'm super excited to see where the rest of the show goes from here though.

I really liked the recap at the beginning too, it was cool and nostalgic.

Obi-wan and young Leia being together is just so great and I love it. She's so bratty but it's also really cute them being together and I really want to see how this continues.

All Obi-wan'd up.

Love me some Jimmy Smits and Leia is a lot of fun. Still a child actor, but handling it way better than Jake Lloyd did. Agree about her bringing down episode 2 just a bit, but the rest is good.

Curious to see how Reva ended up getting from the Jedi Temple to her Inquisitor status.

It's been the Disney way since the MCU started.

"yeah I know you guys wear costumes to hide your identities but we want to see your faces on camera as often as possible, completely defeating the purpose of the disguise"

Another bratty girl who is fearless beyond reason and doesn't listen to any direction even when it ultimately leads her into peril that she got herself into by being stupid.

Why does Hollywood think people enjoy seeing that? Is it just that easy/lazy of plot device to increase drama that they can't pass it up?

The show would've been better had it been some bounty hunter, or a group of them even, that chased them up to the roofs.

Also, I was completely expecting that sith sister to turn on the inquisitors, just not this soon.

Good start to the series though. Shame there's only 4 episodes left.

100%, know-it-all brat with a way with her words was spot-on, like "oh wow this child already Leia". Loved her sensing the bully's feelings too, for that hint of her own Jedi awareness.

Also I appreciate that his skills have clearly deteriorated and he wasn't instantly at the peak of his powers again.

And the Leia stuff where she runs away from him seemed kinda silly, but her logic was sound. She just came to the wrong conclusion.

I am guessing Reva hates Obi-Wan so much for not killing Anakin, because Vader essentially tortures the Inquisitors in training etc.

Her speech to the people in Mos Eisley felt like she was speaking for herself, about being let down.

Also Obi-Wan and Leia are 100% going to a place with force sensitives. The fake Jedi dude said as much. At least I think I heard him say something like that. Am I wrong?

I've got a bad feeling about this
Never tell me the odds
May the Force be with you
I find your lack of faith disturbing
No, I am your father
I am a Jedi, like my father before me
Of course I know him, he's me
What an incredible smell you've discovered
Great kid, don't get cocky

that was all off the top of my head. None of those are pure cheese (all OT tho)
