A Look Back At Star Wars (And Lucasfilm) For 2022

By Bespin refugee on 2022-12-28 in General News

As 2022 draws to a close, it's time to look back on the highs, and lows, of the past year...

After years of rumors and speculation, two fan-favorite characters finally had their time in the spotlight with Disney+ miniseries; The Book Of Boba Fett carrying over from Dec 2021 - Feb 2022, and Obi-Wan Kenobi (May - June). Unfortunately, both series fell short of many fans' expectations. Adding to that, Haslab saw another Star Wars project fail to meet its goal with an Inquisitor lightsaber from the Kenobi series

Andor (Sept) and Tales Of The Jedi (Oct) gave the backstories for a few characters, and Willow has brought back the Lucasfilm property from the 80's Indiana Jones saw a title and trailer for next year's film (Dial Of Destiny), as well as, a new toy line.

The 20th anniversary of Attack Of The Clones saw the announcement of some upcoming figures from Hot Toys, and Hasbro announced a number of products for next year's 40th anniversary of Return Of The Jedi, as well as, the 20th anniversary of Clone Wars.

Throughout the year, between the conventions, series tie-ins, and virtual 'collector cons', there seemed to be a constant roll-out of new product reveals and pre-orders.

What were your highlights for this year?

A lot of fan service has been brought by the Mandalorin to the BOBF. Andor seems compelling, while Kenobi is a slowburn. Star Wars on Disney+ seems to be more viable as a medium for fans than the sequel movies. But, can the rumored retcon/timeline shift for the latter be its saving grace?

I honestly really hope that we DONT get a retcon/timeline shift. Star Wars is already complicated as it is and doesnt need to be even more convoluted.

There was definitely a lot of content over the past 2 years. Sadly, I couldn't bring myself as a fan to open my wallet. The mediocre TV shows introduced characters that barely had any staying power (2 episodes, here and gone). Exclusive figures were hard to obtain. Overall, it's been quantity over quality. I'm hoping for something that will bring back the magic of Star Wars in the next couple years.
