Wait did Rian Johnson's new series get cancelled? I don't think there was a mention of it at least from the Twitter topic

I'm a bit concerned about them making shows that exist mostly to prop up other shows, there's some worrying signs of that in Mandalorian, but it feels very natural to me that a big part of Star Wars future is TV shows. The format and pace suit it so perfectly.

The usual issue with that is that it burdens the show doing it (in the way that Iron Man 2 suffered), but Mando hasn't suffered at all. If the show doing it doesn't suffer I don't see the problem.

Such passion and I am loving it!

One of my most anticipated Star Wars movie and projects in the next few years! In my top 3!

A Droid Story, animated show with R2 and 3PO.

Ha, cute. I'm there for it.

It's a movie series, and it's just not been discussed yet. If it's cancelled, they haven't said anything about that, if it's happening they also have said nothing in a while. So Schrodinger's cancellation for now, I guess.

Comics have lived on this for over 70 years.

Given Disney made an entire movie out of pure abject terror of the Last Jedi controversy I think it’s been quietly dead for years.

 

[Dr. Evil]

A Mighty Ducks series?

 

[Iceman]

Patty Jenkins directing Rogue Squadron!

The megatons keep coming! Patty is a huge get for Disney.

 

[Iceman]

Wheres my Post-ROTJ Luke show?

If they announced that it would likely be no.1 out of all of this for me.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

I mean at least they did bring back Emilio Estevez which does get me a bit interested in it. Also, as a 90's kid Mighty Ducks was something special for me as a kid.

Yeah wouldn't surprise me either.
Always thought it was a terrible move, regardless of my feeling on TLJ.

Star Wars is for nerds and losers. Mighty Ducks is where it's at

It may not be dead, but last I knew, the GOT dumbies were involved, and they have bailed, so it may be something that is on the backburner for a while.

 

[Iceman]

The Acolyte show will have a female lead, so first time seeing a female Sith in live action.

Great. I loved Asaaj Ventress so hopefully this character can live up to her.

That was two separate things I thought

 

[Still Wynning]

Star Wars Visions series of animated short films from anime creators, 10 episodes with each from a different Japanese anime studio.

Oooh, I’m really intrigued by this one. Wonder which studios they got? Trigger? Ufotable? Wit? Kyoto Animation?

 

[Snow Queen]

Still a bit confused about why they went with this Beauty and the Beast show but alright, Luke Evans'll be fun I'm sure.

 

[Albright]

this is s joke - no footage and no release dates
this for i‘m staying up...

 

[flickchick85]

I think the Ahsoka episode of the Mandalorian deliberately had a very different look and feel from the other eps, because that show is gonna have a much more Eastern, samurai-esque feel in general. I’d imagine they will be making similarly concerted efforts to keep these shows from feeling “same-y.”

 

[Iceman]

well, with that pace they‘re going (Andor announced 2 years ago and now almost 2 more years wait), we‘ll could expect that whatever Lando series and Acolyte (animated? live-action?) probably in 2024

With the number of shows announced (and the number of Marvel shows already into production), there is gong to be nonstop content coming out. While waiting for any one particular project there will be another 20 to keep people going.

Luke Evans doing his hilarious parody of straight men was the only good part of that movie. Awful idea for a series but, hey, it’s a payday for Evans!

 

[Snow Queen]

Ooo a show shot in Vancouver, never seen that one before.

 

[Silver Surfer]

They have announced so much content and they have yet to touch Pixar and Marvel. Talk about stealing WB's HBO Max's thunder.

 

[Iceman]

Disney continues to make other studios look bad.

Some of those other studios are doing a good job of making themselves look bad, but yeah, I can imagine some green exec eyes from other studios right now.
