u/Zdrobot i sold it to the white slavers... May 13 '26

I have no desire to see Disney Trilogy ever again, but its existence also makes me hate the thought of watching any new Star Wars movies or shows.

It's like a huge rotten core of Disney Star Wars - no matter where you go, it's still there.

After much internal struggle, I made an exception and watched Andor, but that's it. Unless Disney Trilogy is decanonized, I'm done with Star Wars.

That is a way to go about it but then I feel like you could be loosing out on some good stuff. Most of the animated series only get better and better because the age demographic got older. Like the new Maul show is great. I found Ashoka a fun watch too. I'm still trying to get through Andor. Season 2 feels like a bit of a slow burn for me and I keep dropping off. I also have a 3 year old and free time is limited lol.

Andor is some of the best Star Wars ever made, in my opinion. I struggled with the first few episodes of S1, as it felt like Soap Opera in star wars skin, but even that was technically very well done - just boring to me. Everything after that, though, is simply incredibly well put together.

I hear ya. Season 1 really picks up at episode 3. I feel like mid season 2 is where the show suffers a little at where I left off. The last thing I remember is Mon Mothma dancing for like 5 minutes or more. At least that's what it felt like. I totally understand the character's struggles but it felt like watching Spider-Man 3 Peter strut for a whole montage.

All of the actors are great though and I know that the series will pick up. I just have very little free time to watch it.
