Yip. Everything not related to the abortion of KK's trilogy has been fairly solid to really good. Unfortunately, animation has taken a downturn. It seems that Dave Filoni just isn't in to it anymore.
Also, EA's new Jedi/66 game looks promising. |

I think the ones in the can were the sixth season episodes that Netflix put out. This upcoming seventh season was a revival that as far as I know nobody knew about, and a rare opportunity to actually finish a cancelled series.

In any event, "Resistance" which he created and is responsible for is a steaming load of ass. As if it were written and directed by an entirely different entity.

They were in the poster, but that doesn't guarantee we see them.

Forget politics - just from building a cohesive story from film to film was a complete disaster. Marvel fans will hate it but perhaps the best option would be to fire KK then give Kevin Feige SW's and a huge raise... |

Dave has proven over and over that he understands how to write a cohesive SW story. For "Rebels", they got in to the habit of writing the episodes in threes, much like you would a SW film trilogy. Dave knows when to bring suspense and action, and when to hold back. He knows how to present emotional themes without being sappy, and his knowledge of the EU and Old Republic eras are without peer among those already working for Lucasfilm/Disney. He is my first choice and considering all of the time he spent with and being mentored BY George as they launched 'The Clone Wars' together, I do not believe there is a more qualified and passionate person available for the job. |

There is no way I pay money to watch a SW's product while she's in charge. I doubt I even watch anything outside of the animated stuff... |

Yeah, the whole PR media strategy of '**** our bigoted fans, our movie was awesome!" was probably not the best way to go either.

Oh man, Filoni would have NEVER allowed that shit to happen. Of course, he would have never approved a trilogy without a cohesive and defined story arc either.

I said nothing could bring me back and that's not actually true.
Kill Rose in a trailer. And I mean in the most grueling and pointless way possible. She's out gathering food and steps on a land mine from a war generations ago. It blows off her leg and she gets eaten by Ewoks or something. Do THAT and I'll go get my tickets. |
