Good. Just as R1 and hopefully Solo contribute to bridging the gap between III and IV, hopefully they start working on linking up VI and VII.
yeah, although if I had a single thing I hate most about the ST it's the complete abstraction of galactic politics and context, and the blame falls on RJ equally as JJ and Kasdan. I really shouldn't have to go to the "EU" for this kind of material necessarily.

Agreed, although I appreciated RJ making what is effectively a pointed and merciless criticism ROTJ in film form, but we still lack connective tissue, and one line of dialogue from Rey to try and redress what is "going on" still makes the ST era feel tiny
Production on the first Star Wars live-action streaming series has begun! After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic. The series will be written and executive produced by Emmy-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau, as previously announced, with Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels) directing the first episode. Additional episodic directors include Deborah Chow (Jessica Jones), Rick Famuyiwa (Dope), Bryce Dallas Howard (Solemates), and Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok). It will be executive produced by Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. Karen Gilchrist will serve as co-executive producer. Stay tuned to StarWars.com for updates.
