There's a lot of Star Wars coming up the pipeline over the next few months. Obviously everyone doesn't have to like everything that is coming out lately, but hopefully you give some of these things a chance, even if you aren't a fan of the Disney-era Star Wars so far.

The Mandalorian kicks it off with the first episode on Disney+ on November 12th, and then a second episode just a few days later on the 15th. Lots of buzz has been happening about this show, not only because of the setting and character choice, but the fact that it's the first Star Wars live action television series with a $100 million budget. The trailer shows it to be much more gritty, grounded, and set during a time period we haven't really seen on screen yet (5 years post-ROTJ) with a focus on an yet-to-be-named Mandalorian bounty hunter trying to make his way in life during the chaos left after the Empire's defeat at Endor. I think I'm more excited about this one than anything right now. You can see the latest trailer here.

Jedi: Fallen Order is a new video game developed by EA's Respawn Entertainment, and is set to release on November 15th on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. This will be the first singleplayer-only game we've gotten since the Lucasfilm/EA deal took place in 2012. The game takes place a few years after Order 66 was carried out, and you play as an former Padawan named Cal Kestis, who tries his best to keep a low profile and hide his past as a Jedi until something brings him back into the fray. It's a third person story driven puzzler, similar to the Uncharted games, with combat similar to games like God of War or Dark Souls (focusing on dodging and timing attacks). The latest trailer looks very promising. EA also revealed there will be no microtransactions or multiplayer in this game at all. Watch the latest trailer here.

The Rise of Skywalker is the latest and last (for now) film in the Skywalker Saga. Episode IX takes place a year after the events of Episode VIII, but little else is known about the plot at this point. So far there are two major hints revealed from the trailers, one of them being Palpatine himself being involved in some way, but it's very unclear what that means. JJ Abrams is keeping the plot under wraps once again, but he says he tried his best to make it a satisfying ending to both the Sequel Trilogy and the 9-film saga. Those are big words that I'm sure many fans won't believe until they see it for themselves, especially considering there is a ton of pressure on this film to not only give a satisfying ending, but to answer a lot of unanswered questions from the previous two films. I think for me personally, this one has the most anticipation and interest, simply because of those unanswered questions and not knowing anything about the plot thus far. You can see the latest trailer here and maybe check out the D23 footage as well here.

The Clone Wars season 7 will air sometime in February 2020. This was a surprise announcement a couple years ago, after it was assumed that The Clone Wars series was over and wasn't going to be revisited, leaving the finale season originally planned a few years ago to never be seen. Now the final season is planned to finish out the series, give some closure on a couple story arcs, and give a true lead-up into Revenge of the Sith. You can watch the trailers here and here.

Which one are you more excited for or interested in seeing? And if you don't care about any of it, that's fine, but please don't attack others for thinking otherwise. Keep it civil. You don't have to comment at all if you're not interested.
