They burned more on Andor. It was brilliant, and it was not watched by many. I get to have seen and enjoyed it, and I didn't lose any money in the process.

Stop trying to push the idea that enjoyment of a show or movie should correlate with its budget.


And I'm pretty sure Acolyte had higher streaming numbers than Andor S1. Just shows that at this point there is nothing they can do that will make people happy.

Acolyte was heavily marketed and was geared towards all ages.

Andor was pretty much an adult-oriented spy thriller in the SW universe.

A niche show found a niche audience

When I trolled the PoliBoard saying I voted for Jon Bel Edwards 4 years or so ago

It wasn't even a good troll

But damn did it work.

People still bring that one up, to call me a secret dem or whatever

Truth is, I haven't voted for governor since Mike Foster

That was sooo late September..

I admit it. I’m a sucker for recycled news posing as clickbait

Also the world just needs to be reminded how bad this piece of trash was.

It’s super confirmed

How could you not like a concept of a CW version of Sopranos mating with Star Wars and then the bastard offspring having a Power Rangers fetish?

You have to make a conscious effort to avoid writers that love and respect Star Wars in order to produce the crap Disney has put out.

I love the “bigot” angle given that Leia was an OG “strong female” character from the 80’s and is beloved by all Star Wars fans.

Half the posters in this Board could’ve come up with storylines better than what they’ve shat out.

Jeeesus.. thats insane. The pictures of the rooms intrigued the inner kid in me. Looks kind of badass to be honest



It was badass the whole thing was awesome. The idea that people would consistent pay half a years mortgage to stay there was not. They could have just opened a Star Wars themed hotel and still up charged and it would have been packed.

How can you mess up star wars?



By getting writers who are more interested in attaching their ideological agendas to an established franchise.

And now they can’t course correct because all those types hired underlings who are even worse and are getting the next bite at the apple. Until KK, Filoni, Pablo Hidalgo and Kiri Hart are gone Star Wars is dead and buried. Even Star Fighter, which had some hope, is already being mangled with the same stupid shite.

In my mind Indiana Jones was a trilogy from the 80s. The two new ones are fan fiction.


I similarly pretend Matrix and Jaws sequels dont exist.

But telling the truth about it (or with other franchises) makes YOU the bad guy . “ Stop talking about politics in tv shows!”, when it’s the studios doing it. The real fans are just noticing it.
