After Last Jedi, Star Wars is nothing but fan service over all the iconography that makes all the Gen Xer manbabies go "OMG my childhood". Pretty much all the Star Wars shows were designed to push as much awkward fan service and cameos and legacy characters, even when they are supremely unneeded, because they're too piss scared the manbabies will have a fit again. And although even the manbabies are sick of this pandering, it's clear to me Lucasfilm will refuse to do anything unique and fun with the franchise anymore, but just do the same legacy hits until oblivion, with even the same actors (That Carrie Fisher deepfake will return and it will be awful).
The second creepy-ass deepfake Luke Skywalker arrived in Mandalorian, looking as artificial and lifeless as the action figures people used to play with, and all the fanboys were like "OMG THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANTED. FINALLY LUKE SKYWALKER IS EXACTLY LIKE HE USED TO BE UwU", I knew this franchise was screwed forever. Very sad, but oh well.
