Star Wars 🧵 - I miss Tony Gilroy. I miss his Lucas energy. He was clearly a great leader. #Andor had a singular vision. It told its story & it told it beautifully. Gilroy had his middle finger to social media & that's what Star Wars needs. Disney put the "rebel" back in SW. 1/5
#TheMandalorian was a STELLAR show & it's been really sad watching it flounder. The Children of the Watch aren't good. They aren't heroes. This had better not be where we're going. I hope I'm wrong but this season has not been nearly as strong as the first two. 2/5
We fell in love w/ a father & son story which has been ditched to tell the story of...the villains. I hope this isn't where we end but we're half way & Mandos are getting more time. #Grogu is as cute as ever but he's just been a set piece so far. The shows heart is missing. 3/5
That's what made Mando a rebel. The heart. This show hasn't ever been about a "badass" this show went past that. It put a soul under cool looking armor. it challenged us to know who was under it. It made us beg for him to come out of it. To strip it away and give us more. 4/5
This show feels like it's regressing. It feels like a 5 year old playing w/ their toys in the backyard. It feels like its purpose is to make Mando's "cool" bc look they shoot flame throwers & kill monsters. There are glimmers of greatness but they're drowning in basicness. 5/5
