A Star Wars movie that invalidates the sequels. Preferably based on the old EU.

No, because then we’d get the timey whimey bullshit that infects Star Trek way too much.

I’ll be honest. There’s no way to rescue Star Wars unless a big risk is taken. And no way Disney will upset their cash cow.

They just need a big timejump. Go back KOTOR era, or go to the far future.

Honestly part of the problem is that fans want original trilogy nostalgia. I couldn't believe how much they raged over Andor.

'Skywalker' shouldn't be uttered in newer stuff, but it's required, and Disney knows it too well.

You know, I’m just going to say it: I like the Star Wars video games more than the movies. They’ve been way more consistent in quality than the movies.

I have great memories of Star Wars: Dark Forces.

+1

I am not a uber fan of the original movies TBH. They're historical, and they're fine. The games are littered with gems though.
