For me, Rogue One and Andor continue to be the best Star Wars movie and TV show. The tone, timeline, grittiness, etc. just sit perfectly for me.
Andor's season 02 would revive my love for SW, I'm quite confident.

I once saw someone summarise it thus:
Star Wars is a movie series about aliens and space wizards. Rogue One is a war film.

Haven't seen Andor, gave up with Star Wars after I nearly walked out of Solo out of boredom. So to me Rogue One is the only good thing that's come out of the Disney takeover.
Heard the theme park is quite good too but haven't been yet.

If you liked Rogue One, you will most likely like Andor. A few characters reprise their roles. And they managed to match the tone and grittiness of Rogue One, IMO.

Yeah I like the main geezer who was in Narcos Mexico, name escapes me right now. I might give it a try but I just don't care about Star Wars anymore.
To me, this is canon. And I'm satisfied to leave it there:
Slightly off topic, but Rogue one is the closest thing to the OT in look and feel. Definitely the best Disney produced movie. Andor is good, but it's a slow merhodical pace. For me it wasn't till I finished it, that I truly appreciated it. Reminds me of the pace of Soprannos or something. I would love a Shadows of the Empire movie with this look and feel.
Even more off topic, I've resorted to diving into Audio books to get my fix, even some of the poor books are better than the trash produced from Disney. I would recommend Star Wars Catalyst a prequel to Rogue One, it makes the Rogue one era better, like Rebels linked to Ashoka. In my head cannon, the original Heir to the Empire triligy, is the true continuation of the OT.
I will say this about Outlaws, the story works, the main cast works. But it replaces Shadows of the Empire (never canon) but the character of Nix is so George Lucas and would have sold alot of toys. The underworld is also so George Lucas, that we never got to see with his cancelled TV show.

I picked this up last week on PS5. Have a bit of time off so I started playing it. Absolutely LOVE it! I ended up finishing the main storyline today and now going through all the side missions. Honestly, could very well be in contention for game of the year for me! What a shock! I didn’t expect to enjoy it this much but I did! Fantastic game. Great story. Great characters. Amazing looking game too.

I think this game will be remembered for making Kay Vess look like a gremlin (debatable, where is her green ears?), and not for introducing us to Nix the bestest bro leopard gecko pangolin axolotl thing, and ND-5, the crustiest grumpiest curmudgeon droid dad ever.
I hope they make a passable sequel because with all the apparently pedestrian sneaking gameplay, the character designs (and main ship design, I was just noticing all the lived in details of the crew quarters last night) were not at all comparable to Concord or otherwise forgettable.
Go nix!

Hogwarts Legacy was a huge hit.
I think the problem with this game is the game itself is probably generic Ubisoft slop and the main character has a strange looking head that they have stuck with because the original incorrect damage control, "misogyny," painted them into a corner.
