Meh. D&D only do good in actual adaptations where they have a detailed storyline to crib off. (So they are organizing and summarizing detail, rather than creating it). If you give them a timeline sheet, which is just high-level plot points, they aren't creative enough to flesh in authentic details themselves; they're high concept guys. I would like to say this makes them good showrunners rather than show writers... except when they were showrunners, they also wrote some things and messed up the time needed to tell the story effectively and weren't coherent all the time when on their own devices.
Essentially you need writers who actually can work in the weeds.
That definitely was a better part of Rogue One, to see how things work on a non-high-concept level. There's a whole lot going on with building a death star, and the granular level is the individual people who are not cookie-cutter fascists or whatever they are portrayed as. It's more interesting to see how average or even well-meaning people can get sucked into these broad regime initiatives. One's own morality might not function well in an atmosphere espousing a different ethical philosophy, so how do you operate in that environment?
I remember also liking that they allowed some of the characters to be more skeevy without getting gratuitous (like shooting your own guy in the back so he won't be captured and spill the plan). It was a more complex moral choice, a darker one.
I dunno, I think the standalones failed (Rogue One did okay) because it was too much too fast, felt like a cash grab, and they were stories no one asked for. I mean, Solo wasn't as bad as everyone feared but it wasn't worth seeing either really. And it pretty much just consisted of plot points cribbed from Star Wars -- things we didn't need to know more about or see, it's all just back story. They could have been focusing on something else, or something really far away from the Skywalker period at least.
I will be really happy once the Skywalker thing is over. Like... I don't care. Let's do something else. it is such a rich historical world. It would be nice to see things besides jedi/sith, but you can even still do jedi/sith without making it a big universal good/evil battle, they can just be operating on a small personal scale / plotline.
