This, Rogue One was a great movie and, in my opinion, on par with Empire. I loved how they crafted a fantastic story, around a scenario we already knew the outcome of, made it thrilling with compelling characters along with some amazing set pieces and a decent dollop of fan service, without it feeling like it was forced in there to tick a box.This looks better than most of the recent Star Wars shows, hopefully with the team behind Rogue One we get something good and not a watered-down show.
I liked Rogue One but I never once thought it would interesting to know about Ando's life, Disney could be doing much more interesting stories like what Luke actually got up to after RotJ (Let's just scrap EP7 to 9, they didn't happen) or what Vader got up to between RotS and New Hope/Rogue One, hell I'd even find a show about Chirrut and Baze more insteresting simply because they were more interesting characters than Ando.
Oh give it a rest, the first episode hasn’t even aired yet…They've got to keep the production line going, like one of Stalin's tank factories that they moved East after the early successes of Operation Barbarossa, which ran 24/7 with no roof on in Winter. It doesn't matter what interest levels there are or how good it is. They are literally just spamming content.

Agreed, Rogue One is easily my favourite SW film since the originals. Disney's recent output has been poor on the whole (Mandalorian aside, although season 2 wasn't as good and I didn't like what they did with his story in Boba Fett, which aside from one or two episodes, I found pretty bad) so I won't hold my breath but I'll give this a chance.This, Rogue One was a great movie and, in my opinion, on par with Empire.

I hope Andor captures that ambience.
"He sure did, sir". And I bet you also read that in Ryan's voice too.Don't worry I'm sure there will be plenty of "He said the thing" moments.
