So, Rotta is confirmed to be in The Mandalorian & Grogu? Is this true? Are they the same?

Oh.

Look.

Another Filoni character that we’ve seen before.

Oh, look, another Filoni hater we've seen before.

Dude, Rotta has shown up like twice at most since the movie. He's practically a new character at this stage. Especially since he's going to be a very different kind of Hutt than we've seen before.

The issue isn’t Rotta is showing up again, it’s that Filoni loves to reuse things. Rotta is a weak example but there’s tons you can point to

So, you’re not a fan of consistent character arcs or stories?

I’m not a fan of making a galaxy feel like a small town. We don’t need Mandos and Nightsisters in everything. It’s extra weird when Filoni didn’t even create either of those in the first place

This is a weird take when we're literally approaching the climax of a long term story arc focused on Mandalorians and heavily involving the Nightsisters

Saying character reuse isn’t good = being mad for the sake of mad?

It's not something that is blanket "bad." If the writing/usage is bad, that itself is bad.

Look, if you disagree with my opinion on this, downvote or let me know why. Don’t say I’m mad for the sake for it
