What's a entertainment franchise (movies, games, etc) that has been milked but still puts out good products?

Andor was amazing. I love star wars, there was a lot of iffy stuff, Mando was pretty good, but damn did Andor knock it out of the park.
I agree with you. Except for Boba Fett. They made a bounty Hunter into an anti-mafia protagonist. This dude was out to kill Luke Skywalker and all of a sudden he’s a good guy because he spent some time in the desert with the people who also wanted to kill Luke Skywalker.
He was hired to kill Luke, what’s the point?
That’s bad guy activities
Why does that make him stereotypical evil though? are all bad people supposed to only hold “evil” values?
You’re being obtuse. That show was horrible for many reasons. If you want to argue that, you’ll need to find someone else.
The show was horrible because Fett had no character and felt like a background character in his own story. He didn't seem to really have ideas and just went along with Fennec's or others' suggestions. Some people said it felt like 1 or 2 missing episodes of the Mandalorian got stretched out into an entire show.
Totally agree! I When people mention Andor I immediately think of the monologues rather than any of the action sequences. I think that tells how good the writing was.
What do I sacrifice?
EVERYTHING!
The scene with the tractor beam was pretty great though.
I really wished we got more stuff like Andor, Rogue One, and Knights of The Old Republic II that explore more of the universe outside of “here’s a bunch of themed planets with wacky CGI aliens”.
Andor and Rogue One are really good at showing what it’s like to actually be a Rebel and live in a universe being dictated by an empire, while KOTOR 2 was a really cool look at the metanarrative of the Jedi, the Sith, and the Force as a whole.
Exactly, it was hard and gritty. I thought they did an amazing job, the movies make it feel so binary, we're good they're bad. Andor shows the grey, the actual living under the empire, what it actually means. I deseprately hope they see the numbers and see that we want more "grown up" star wars.
I have a friend who worked on the Mandalorian as a make-up artist. I was so jealous when I found out. I believe she did the Xi'an character, if I remember correctly.
