even flawed gems like Eternals, which I really liked

I liked it too. I agree it was flawed. Mostly by the final fight sequence. But the general theme of a family/cult drifting apart then exploding was well done.

The droid and Vader were the only good parts of Rogue One. Director seems to be in severe need of a reminder that movies are meant to be seen. In the original movie, even when it didn't make sense for there to be any lights in the trash compactor, it was always easy to see what was happening. And Vader cutting his way through the rebels was the opposite of the Vader that is calmly walking around just minutes later in the original movie--this was pure "fan" "Service."
So no, I did not enjoy Rogue One. Brian Daley's Star Wars Radio Play did a vastly superior job of telling essentially the same story in a way that was a great deal more compelling.
If I want a political drama that seems oddly prescient, I'll watch Babylon5 or the (Original British) House of Cards series.

No TV show can be so good that it warrants enduring BoBF or Kenobi, any more than any TV show can recover from the utter tedium of (hot take trauma warning) the 1st season of Game of Thrones.

Ooh, it's like walking on the sun.

I think Lanterns looks great.

But I would also be 100% behind an animated saga running about 5 seasons culminating in the Sinestro Corps War.

Let's see if Kelly Macdonald can do a decent Nebraska accent.

She got a lot of praise for playing a Texan in No Country for Old Men.
