It’s great that Favreau and Filoni are killing it, but sometimes sustained universal praise puts directors and showrunners on a dark path. Everything must be done to ensure that they don’t end up going full Lucas / Wachowski / Shyamalan / Benioff / Weiss. In my opinion even the Nolans are headed in the wrong direction due to this effect.
For now though, I’m just going to continue to marvel at how a guy with experience only in animated series, plus that burly a-hole from I Love You Man and Couples Retreat, are making the best live action Star Wars content in 4 decades.
