Star Wars: Rebels

Star Wars: Resistance is going to suck.  Dave Filoni is not going to solve or fix Star Wars.  He may "get it"—maybe—but he either doesn't have the broad enough suite of talents to do everything that needs to be done, or he doesn't have the leadership chops to put the SJWs who are ruining Star Wars in their place.  (To be fair, George Lucas didn't have the former either.  Which is why the prequels sucked, and the first couple of movies, where he delegated to talented writers and directors, etc. are vastly superior.  So that's not necessarily on him; but does he even understand that he needs to get better writers?  I don't know.)

Will "Dave Filoni Unleashed" without meddling from Kathleen Kennedy be able to save Star Wars?  The fans (some of them, anyway) think so.  I'm skeptical.  In retrospect, the Clone Wars isn't as good as I remember; a good half of the episodes I could skip nowadays and not miss them.  And Rebels was a mess.

Without further ado, this guy again, speaking for me as he does so well.
