    Writer clearly hasn’t been paying attention to anything but the movies.

          Usually it’s the copy editors who write the headlines, not the writers of the article. In the first paragraph, the author mentions Maul in TCW, so they are aware at least of other Star Wars not on film.

    Disneys urge to squeeze the last drop of money out of their customers and IPs is astounding…

    If you told me like fifteen years ago that eventually I wouldn’t care at all about new Star Wars stuff coming out I wouldn’t have believed you. Like, I looked forward to a sequel trilogy for decades, and even the Mandolorian was exciting. Somewhere between the lazy plot armor of Asoka and the fact that Acolyte turned the Jedi into nothing more than space cops it just stopped feeling like anything interesting or meaningful. Andor was cool, but not as cool as it would have been if the franchise still got me excited rather than just making me skeptical.

    We should really just get rid of intellectual property laws. Or like, limit the rights to a decade or two.
