She's only been in 2 live action episodes of the Mandalorian, one of them in a brief scene. People are "tired of her?" i think a good amount of the complainers are purest nerds that don't want to recognize the animated characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Eagle Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 When you wander away from an established canon, quality control issues creep in, especially in a badly organised company seeking to provide content asap. I don't think it's irredeemable at this point; more annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney really needs to hire a continuity expert if they are going to extract maximum value out of Star Wars, Nerd rage isn't great, esp when the overall product quality is variable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leia/Luke brother/sister thing after you had scenes with them kissing.... Leia saying she remembered her mother, etc. Hell, even Vader being Luke's Father probably wasn't part of the original story and they had to write in Obi Wan's"from a certain point of view" speech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never made sense once you've seen the films. Supposedly, it was George Lucas' wife at the time that held together the first 3 films and earlier trilogy was nearer what Lucas thought without her guidance. Post that though, the EU has done a lot of work on canon, so while Disney could and should change things around, some people have done the hard work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Eagle Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Spoiler That was an episode of the Mandorlorian, and not the Mandalorian. Enjoyable beginning and end, not sure where the middle bit will end, so not sure if it was a diversion or not. But good to see Coruscant again and attempt to push the Star Wars story from different shades of the rebellion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
