All modern day Star Wars shows and movies suck because that Universe is empty and boring

There is just nothing that writers can get out of there. Thats why they keep and keep returning to milk Luke, Lea, Darth Vader and Stormtroopers. Because without them there is nothing to shoot about.

You can see it in Bobba Fett that was snoose fest. Mandalorian has only one gimmick - baby Yoda. But that has been wearing off and it become "Villain of the week" show where Mandalorian has new adventures where he has to help someone to save something every week. Because writers just dont know what to do with main plot with Yoda. So eventually they just brought back Luke.

That Andor show will be even more boring.

Thats why in Force Awakens they made up copy of that Emperor, Empire and Darth Vader.

Kenobi is so boring because they cant create anything interesting from that universe for him.

Interesting.
But the question remains: is the material itself empty and boring or is it the writers who are incapable of making something great out of fascinating material?

Your opinion is boring and stupid! People love Mandalorian, it ranks #80 on Imdb. This and Boba Fett are 7.5*.
The only people who hate Disney Star Wars are deranged Fandom Menace trolls. You watch youtoob trolls then ape them here.

There's 500 amazing books they could adapt, it's literally all spelled out for em. They just continue to be convinced all they need is the name.

"The Mandalorian" is really good. It helps that it features an original character who they can take wherever they want. Something like "Obi-Wan" is just him being sent on random adventures. Ewan McGregor is great, but he can't carry a whole series by himself.

It also helped a lot that "Mandalorian" had different directors involved, where "Obi-Wan" has one director doing all of them.

It’s the other way around. Thanks to Disney +, this is the golden age of Star Wars.

They are producing great content and most fans love it.

Fans hate it. No one knows actual ratings.

The only semi good Star Wars thing they produced was Mandalorian. But their shtick with Baby Yoda got boring pretty fast. Bobba Fett was a snooze fest no one watched. Kenobi is boring to hell.

I asked my 14 years old sibling if he wants to see Kenobi and he said "no". He also didnt want to see Bobba Fett. And with very little interest watched Mandalorian.

Children used to like Star Wars and be obsessed with them, buying toys and merchandise. But now kids dont care at all about Star Wars universe.

And your sibling is a representative of all children, right?

I have a 6 year old nephew that loves Star Wars.

No, the problem is, Lucasfilm is run by a bunch of talentless hacks with an ax to grind with Star Wars fans. They think it's still 2017 and they gotta resist against certain factions they don't like, when in fact, all they've done is come every close to destroying the franchise, and alienating a lot of people that could have been a good source of revenue for them. If it had been any other business besides Hollywood, they would have been folding and filing Chapter 11.

Rogue one was boring too except the last scene
