A question for anyone here, whether you have liked the last few movies or not: what would you rather see going forward? Brand new characters, worlds, and stories, all far removed from what has come before, or more attempts to “get it right” with familiar heroes/villains/places and the frequent nostalgia callbacks we’ve been seeing?
I would rather have stories not immediately connected to the old characters. Not that I didn’t want eps 7,8, and 9. I do. Regarding other Star Wars stories, there is a problem with ALL prequels, and that is you know what’s going to come. The PT gave us really bad explanations of what had happened before.....and while I liked Solo, it wasn’t necessary. Rogue One was fairly decent, but again, not exactly full of surprises. I don’t need to see a Boba Fett film, and even an Obi wan film, while intriguing to a point, better be damn good.
I’ll happily take a Rogue Squadron type of film, or some ancillary in universe story where the outcome is mildly in doubt.
