    Anything is better than KK . The way she promised George she’d stick to his vision then dumped that idea when he signed SW over was always very telling. At least Filoni has a love for the product even though people tend to have issues with his additions. Also really surprised Kennedy had her job for as long as she did due to the string of failures under her watch, too.

    Enormous uphill battle to find the magic again, but this is a great first start.

    I guess we’re jerking off to clone wars ocs for the foreseeable future then.

  5. Honestly, if Star Wars wants a fresh start it shouldnt be Dave. Sure, Clone Wars / Mandalorian were great. Other than that, it’s been iffy. inject some fresh blood.

    Kind of a bullshit title. She’s stepping down because she’s 72, not being “replaced”.
