    Yes, but maybe you shouldn’t?

      If you accept Disney is absolutely going to continue milking Star Wars no matter what, I think exploring Vader on screen a little more isn’t the worst path they could go down. Lots of interesting Legends material to pull from, as it stands I don’t think we’ve gotten any content around Vader before ANH besides Kenobi and Rebels? I’d be cautiously interested to see how they handled telling a story from his perspective.

        I will grant, if they start adapting the Kieron Gillen Vader comics, that could be pretty fucking cool.

      Thirty bad movies won’t erase three good movies.

    I thought after Andor it was clear the Star Wars universe was fine without anymore Skywalkers.

      Hard agree. Andor is the best thing anyone has ever done with Star Wars.

      Yes, I’m including the original trilogy. I said what I said.

        As a huge fan of the franchise, I think Andor was the first actually good movie in the universe.
