Bet we get an Andor movie. Oh wait, we did already, it was called Rogue One.

This sorts demonstrates how impossible it should've been to mess these movies up as badly as they did.
Andor will be, what, 8 hours or so of total content? So 3-4 movies worth of content. Cut some fluff out and you have -- what's that? A trilogy?
Centered around a side mission. That's it. An almost throwaway component of the overarching storyline and when combined with Rogue One it would've absolutely torched anything this entire saga has to offer short of A New Hope and Empire (which it would've gone toe to toe with).
And as I've referenced elsewhere, the EU offers INCREDIBLE stories and characters all over the place. Many of which could've handled the post Yavin period incredibly well and provided spectacular sequel material.
It's just such a damn shame that they fumbled those and seems almost impossible that they managed it.
