    Filoni is perpetually stuck in the giddy fanboy mode of soypoint-2 Star Wars enjoyer, which just honestly drives the slop even worse

    Star Wars is best when it's basically a generic template to put a story into: Mandalorian season 1 is just a generic gunslinger western with a Star Wars framework, Andor is a generic space heist film, etc

    His obsession with the Jedi being the ultimate good and his OC that he definitely has been writing fanfic about long before he became a showrunner is just fucking awful. The only good moment in Ahsoka's character story was her leaving the Jedi order after they fucked her over - everything else sucks

      The fact that Tony Gilroy doesn't give a fuck about Star Wars definitely contributed to Andor's success lol
