I'm still happy Disney bought Star wars.

Pumping out too much product too quickly isn't the problem because if doing it slowly helped quality then the prequels would have been masterpieces.

I thought the sequels were actually good other than the disastrous Last Jedi which I think fucked up what Episode VII was building.

And The Mandalorian is the best Star wars since the originals.

I like that Disney has been doing much more Star Wars content since Lucas was doing way too little.

The sole issue to me is the woke shit and they're rightfully receiving backlash for it.
Andor is the best Star Wars since Empire. Star Wars for smart adults.

It's funny but tell me why it is great then? Anyone that defends trash like this always seems to defend it by just claiming people who hate it are bigots, racist, sexist or whatever. But why not just defend it by talking about what is so great about it? You can't because I've watched the trailers and it looks like shit to me. No, I haven't watched any episodes of anything but the preview alone doesn't make me want to bother. It's very cartoonish looking and the casting isn't believable. And sure, tell me that none of that matters because it's Star Wars, which isn't realistic in the first place. Sure but that doesn't excuse things being awful.

There is this funny show that my sister in law started since she is visiting.

It is called Arrested Development.

It is quite amusing.

I found myself chuckling through most of that 3rd episode of Acolyte. Super serious Force Lesbo episode. :lol And I thought the sequel movies were bad. This makes them look like high art.

Tried to watch the new Game of Thrones last night. Sleep became a bigger priority.

First episode of the season was kind of a slow burn. Interesting but it's really just setting up the big things to come. I won't spoil anything but this is really the very start of the Dance of the Dragons.

I don't know if they were aware of what the state of technology was, but the show nailed a lot of stuff.
