Star Wars What Shows Would You Make?

What show would I NOT make? Andor.
Boring character whose arc is already resolved and without his far more entertaining droid sidekick.
If they wanted to do an espionage series during the "Rebels" time period it would be better to use new characters with unknown arcs.

Andors the weak one IMHO. BUT.
1. Established character.
2. Well regarded movie.
3. Good actor.
4. Financially successful movie.
A lot of upside from Disney PoV. I'm biased just finished Narcos: Mexico in the weekend.

More a case of available/cheep actor.

That to. He's good though.

If it was based on "good actor" or "interesting character" it would be called Jyn Erso, Bohdi Rook, K-2SO, or Malbus & Imwe.

I'm saying the actor is good not the character. I thought she was alright bin RO.
Paul Farquhar
Legend
Yeah, I'm not convinced. Felicity Jones is a good actor. Alan Tudyk is a good actor. Riz Ahmed is a good actor.
They are all probably too busy.
Zardnaar
Legend
Personally I wouldn't use any of them. Not because of the actors bit one and done movie and prequels are hard to do right.
Paul Farquhar
Legend
I agree, but if I had to do one, it wouldn't be Andor.
Zardnaar
Legend
Yeah doesn't interest me that much and I wasn't that excited about the Ranger one either.
Wouldn't be surprised if 5/10 of those TV shows end up dead. Expect 2-3 to not make it.

Like most Disney projects it'll be throw it at the wall if it sticks...great! If not, scrape it in the bin with the rest of them.

The thing about Christopher Lee is that he's done so many roles that didn't have enough to them to overcome the impression he naturally gives as an aristocratic towering man with a voice like thunder and stone. When he got a particularly meaty role (Saruman, King Haggard, Scaramanga, Lord Summerisle, Rochefort, the earlier Dracula movies), that's a different story.
Not that Lee Pace isn't a darn good actor - The Fall alone should convince anyone who thinks otherwise.
Put Jeff Goldblum in either role and I'm sold!

The pilot of The Clone Wars suggests "nothing good". On the other hand, I did like the "teenage rebellious son of Jabba" from the second episode of Visions.

Vaccine hesitancy seems to be a how much do you trust your government question. Very low vaccine uptakes in flawed democracies where no one trusts the government and not authoritarian enough to make you.
Here it's not even one side of the political fence but several groups.
1. Hardcore anti vaxxers.
2. Libertarian types.
3. Stoners.
4. Marginalized people. (Ethnic groups, prostitutes, homeless).
5. Alternative types (hippies, hardcore yoga types).
6. Cult like groups.
7. Contrarians (can't tell me what to do).
8. Gangs/criminals.
There's been several cases of people refusing to co-operate with contact tracers. One gang affiliated sex worker traveled around plying her trade and wouldn't co-operate.
Others keep working during lockdown as sex workers did qualify for wage subsidy but more than a few don't pay tax so can't prove their income level (one asked for several thousand dollars per week but had no income records).

Man I don’t even like the movie in general and I think he’s a good actor.

I was going to make a joke about the Jar Jar Binks musical the needs to be made, but what I really want to see is more Orson Krennic, which I guess would have to be a prequel.
Movie or series, doesn't matter, Ben Mendelsohn was fantastic in that role.
(I just looked it up, as it occurred to me he might be in 'Andor', and looks like there are rumors he will, I just got a lot more excited about that series)

Maybe it's jut that I haven't seen him in anything else. I've seen the rest of the Rogue One cast in other stuff.
