They did have a fairly solid run 2002-2008 and a lot of 90s stuff was good as well.

What 90s Star Wars stuff was "good"? I sure hope you don't cite Luuuuuuuuuuuke.

Have you read the book?

It was also done before cloning "rules" were established.

A lot of the RPG was good around that time. I feel like a couple of the comics were pretty good.

I feel like that's not what you were referring to, though

The Thrawn trilogy is vastly overrated based on it being the first real Star Wars thing to catch everyone's attention in a decade. It's fine, I guess, but "good" is too strong a word.

I revisited it about 2 years ago in the comic book form and was shocked how weak the ending was compared to my memory of the books. So I reread the books and found the same outcome. It really was a product of its time: really neat and long awaited, but it hasn't aged particularly well and isn't good compared to the better Star Wars stuff that has come out since.

I do think the germ of the idea is great though. If they can improve on that, there's potential.

If that's the usual, how can you be disappointed?

Disapointment doesnt require surprise.
