Apparently it's gonna go deeper and get into Leia on endor n stuff. They need to handle going that close to the films very carefully. I'm sure they will but it could as easily meet backlash. It already is getting a horrible reaction. Fan boys attacking it cos Star Wars but not aimed or for them. Ugly reaction mostly. Fuck em.


Name any other film that's still keeping and building a new audience 40 years later.

Not even close. Batman superman etc are older and don't have anything like the cultural saturation Star Wars does. Especially not in the piss poor reboots they've done.

Either that, or they ate their last princess.

How often are they going to release these? Is this going to be like a daily thing? I could deal with that.

I'd say there's no doubt at all that they ate the previous owner of that dress.

If they're daily and actually provide significant content, I'm not nearly as disappointed as I was initially

None of it seems too significant so far. The Ahsoka episode(s) might be though.

I mean, they are just short episodes that are fine for that. Anyone freaking out because they aren't getting any significant story or information from them has got bigger issues. They are nice little things to watch between now and when Rebels returns or Last Jedi opens.

agreed. I dont need significant new canon stories or anything. Just if it was 3 minutes a week or something it would feel just kinda pointless.

These have been fun little asides. They aren't profound or anything and that's totally fine. But I fully admit that I feel like I'm treading water with them, waiting for Ahsoka.
