Not at all, simply misunderstood.
And on a side not, I fixed my last post so it's not in a massive quote box.
Wonder Woman's Patty Jenkins is Directing a Rogue Squadron Movie

Patty Jenkins has left the Cleopatra movie she's been working on to focus on Wonder Woman 3, and Rogue Squadron.
So apparently she hasn't actually stepped away from the production of Rogue Squadron.

Hmm.. Maybe her messy public exit made some waves in Disney and caused the boss intervene with lucasfilm..
Yeah, I don't know where people are getting these funny ideas from, but at no point did anyone officially say that Jenkins was out or that the movie was cancelled. They just bumped it back down the schedule because pre-production was taking longer than expected, and she had other commitments (mostly WW3) that had to take priority in the short term.
This kind of thing happens all the time. It's really not a big deal.

I'll lean in to the category of "We just don't know" and proceed on with life.
Your doing the internet wrong. You are suppose to know EVERYTHING and make it part of your life!
" I have always been of the opinion that a man who desires to get on the Internet should know either everything or nothing. Which do you know?"
" I know nothing."
With due apologies to Oscar Wilde.
You're not wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed both seasons of Mando and I'm looking forward to the BoBF and Ahsoka spinoffs.
You can't really make a movie or TV show nowadays without relying on tropes. It's how you tell the story, how you show your characters developing that makes or breaks something.
TFA could have been a great movie. If someone has the time and patience to recut TFA and TLJ, you can bring out fantastic 1.5 hour films for each. The way they were presented on screen, it wasn't just the tropes, its that it didn't feel like there was a cohesive beginning, middle and end. It was sort of the spaghetti method of filmmaking.
Mandalorien at least, is a more tightly written and fresher take on the universe. Is it perfect? Far from it. I'd personally axe the spider episode in S2 in favor of more Bo Katan. But for me, it was a lot more fun than the ST.
There was no messy public exit.
There was a single article, written by this Matthew Belloni with a lot of axes to grind. High in speculation and little in facts.

Not that surprised really. Pity. I was I intrigued.

I wonder if any of the announced Star Wars movies will ever actually come out.
damn.
Hope they project isn't dead, just delayed, maybe retooled as a mini series?
Was really looking forward to a pilot film within a SciFi theme.

Either way, life goes on.
According to Rian, sure. But Kathleen commented the other day that there is nothing cinematic on the table for Star Wars at the moment, or something like those words. It boils down to the fact that they're working on streaming right now.
Sure, Rian's trilogy could possibly become a streaming thing. But I felt Kathleen really ment that no movies are being discussed right now, only shows.
Making money.
So the executive who thought flushing the characters and narrative legacy of the Original Trilogy down the loo, and the co-writer of the massively misguided Wonder Woman 1984, can't seem to get Top Gun: In Space to take flight, even after Paramount just showed the world what a slam-dunk, can't-lose proposition that is? I wish I could say I was surprised.
Or maybe the Disney brass is secretly so intent on resetting Star Wars' cinematic future without Kennedy that they're holding off on greenlighting any more movies until a successor is appointed? That's an evidence-free guess on my part, but it at least seems plausible.

I think they are just going where the money is at. Streaming is making them money, and they can do a variety of things with it. Same with Trek films. Films involve greater risk right now, and streaming is guaranteeing the company money. Even if people hate what they watch they still subscribe to the service.
