With the recent success of the Disney+ Star Wars live-action series like The Mandalorian, The Book Of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor, it would be easy to overlook the animated side of that galaxy far far away and dismiss them as ‘cartoons’ for kids.

But here’s an unpopular opinion: Lucasfilms should really make more animated shows and features rather than live-action ones, because these so-called ‘cartoons’ have done more to enrich and build the Star Wars universe than almost every other live-action series and film outside of the Original Trilogy.
