    • Welcome back @somme  Reading it back, I actually think that post holds up surprisingly well, all things considered. To be clear: I was totally wrong, I (for the most part) love Star Wars live-action shows and (generally) find them a great addition to the franchise. It's been an excellent avenue to onboard new talent into bigger and more noticeable roles.  To have it happen, though, it took a major tech breakthrough in film (The Volume/StageCraft) to make it an affordable production prospect, and the creation of an entirely new streaming service in the form of Disney+ to actually have some reasonable level of ROI. And the episode runtimes are still all over the place, and the quality of the shows is a bit all over the place, though the same goes for the films by the end of 2019, and, well, after what we've seen happen to the MCU since then...maybe this is just a feature of being owned by Disney these days? Goodness knows  Though, I will say, even with as much as I've enjoyed some of the shows? I cannot wait to sit myself back down in a packed cinema to watch a Star Wars film. There's a certain energy in that room when Star Wars flickers on that I don't think the TV shows will ever benefit from while being watched from home, and getting the chance to watch a bit of Mando S3 with a huge crowd last year at Celebration is enough for me to want to scream from the rooftops that they need to start having these shows get some limited runs at cinemas!  Anyways, just looking back through this thread, while I'm here: In terms of ranking those seven films? Still accurate for me other than TFA dropping down the pecking order, probably 4th firmly behind the OT and on par with Revenge of the Sith maybe?  Attack of the Clones is certainly dead last of the seven listed, still, that much is for sure... *shudder*
    • Well that’s certainly a surprise! Had no idea that Throwback Entertainment got the rights to Extreme G.  Neat!
    • Extreme-G and Iggy's Reckin' Balls are joining N64 NSO...today!   
    • No, you're right. A Star Wars TV show would never work.
