my generalizations of fandom communities were accurate, they rarely discuss the quality of a show or movie and mostly focus on the cool moments and what it all means for the future movies/shows. boba Fett and Obi-Wan are now almost universally panned, but reddit threads in dedicated subs were very positive. you won't see many or any critical comments even in threads for the worst marvel movies over at r/marvelstudios unless you sort for controversial. it's just how it is.

There are 8 episodes per season, so we are at 5/8 for s3.

Definitely should watch the Mandalorian episodes in Boba Fett at least, those were quite good. Season 3 however I wouldn't recommend.

The monster attacks could have at least been presented in a way that doesn't make the Mandalorians look like the most useless incapable bunch in the universe.

You can get action taken against your account by admins for criticizing a youtubers video style/cadence.

So you didn't even like Andor? At the very least that wasn't a typical disney-approach to Star Wars, was it?

It should be basically impossible to not release completed works like these unless it's such dogshit that it hurts the IP or company reputation.

Something is seriously wrong right now.

I'd usually agree with you, but people aging slower would definitely mess with processes that we rely on currently. Even just take a company structure. How do you employ new people, get fresh ideas, promote people if people suddenly don't retire as much.

But it is a bit stretched. in terms of really meaningful plot developments there has been 1) a successful rebel attack + empire reacting 2) the protagonist slowly finding that a regular life isn't in the cards for him. Much of everything else and most characters didn't really matter all that much yet. The whole "we must cut lose strings = kill andor" premise of the second half feels a bit silly and forced and lets the writers have the rebels not do anything (other than luthen and mothma, who are pretty cool).

Half the episodes were quite good, the other half just fine. One was dedicated exclusively to hyping up the heist and making us care about the side characters, and didn't hugely succeed on either of those. I like the show though, the last few episodes have been real good.

Criticisms are also not allowed to get any upvotes except the standard "if you don't like the first few episodes keep at it, it really picks up later!".
