    Gotcha. Never got into those side-projects, even if they were regarded as canon. As a result, I cannot speak on those stories, background, etc. In that regard, I'd say I am generally average goombah mainstream fan of the SW movies.

Same with all the other "bonus" movies that they are doing. FTR, I'm not into all the books/cartoons/etc like some on here, so I'd expect their opinions to maybe be a little more harsh and/or detailed.

    Ok. I'm glad I finished it. Totally pivoted like you said handy.

    The last 45 or so were actually pretty good. The way they killed everyone off didn't upset me at all like it did with the departed. Spoiler alert. I thought the deaths of a lot of the characters were well done. Some not so much.. But for the most part, it felt authentic by the end.

    Jules And Delores:

    Brazilian comedy based on the theft of the Jules Rimet soccer trophy (World Cup) in 1983. It's quirky, and it's very loosely based (basically, the theft and theoried result of what happened to the trophy in real life are the only "facts"). It's a toss-up whether to watch this one or not. I liked it, but it's nothing special at all.
