Simon Kinberg says his Star Wars trilogy is inspired by Andor.

I have no doubt it is, but I don’t think Kinberg could reach those heights.
Vuk: Your emotions make you weak.
Jean Grey: You're wrong. My emotions make me strong.
Was that a real line?
Yes iirc

Thinking about it, this horrific dialogue actually makes Kinberg the perfect fit for Star Wars.

I wonder if Claudio Miranda (Top Gun: Maverick, F1, Life of Pi) as cinematographer can elevate Shawn Levy's bland directing.

Levy is pretty good at action and “emotional” beats, at least so he's a step above Abrams.

I don't remember being the actual directing in TFA being offensively awful, so he's not actually a step above Abrams.

Every single time I see a clip of weird CGI Luke from the Filoni shows, it's somehow worse than I remember.

I feel like it was edited together from a season four.

Really depressing that we got our first badly directed Star Wars movie.

The Force Awakens and Rise of Skywalker weren't well directed imo

On the coherency side, no, but it's impossible to say that those movies looked bad.

Fellow Senators, friends, colleagues, allies, adversaries. Meesa stands before yousa this morning with a heavy heart. Meesa's spent my life in this chamber. Meesa came here as a child. And as meesa looks around now, meesa realizes meesa have almost no memories that pre-date my arrival and few bonds of affection that cleave so tightly.
