- Where was Boba Fett?

He's getting how own spin off movie :-/

Of course he is. He's literally the worst Star Wars character.

This is exactly the sort of thing they need to get away from. Star Wars is a huge universe. Tell new stories about characters we haven't met yet!

They could tell completely new, unrelated stories. Set it in the far past, or the far future from "present" Star Wars. Not everything needs to connect back to some grand cinematic universe. I get that they want to Marvelize the Star Wars franchise, but it'd be far more interesting to do the exact opposite. Make a bunch of one-off movies that aren't connected at all, just use Star Wars as the backdrop.

I liked Solo, but I'd have liked it a lot more if it was some unnamed smuggler we've never met before doing some crazy heist that doesn't tie back into what we already know.

On the other hand, I'm a huge hypocrite, because I'd be first in line for an Obi-Wan movie with Ewan McGregor. There's a whole lot of room for some cool stories there, I think. I won't be mad if they never do it and instead focus on new things, either, though.
