Illustration showing Sarah from the Labyrinth sitting in her bedroom, wearing her distinctive outfit from the film, sitting with her legs crossed on the bed holding a book and reading it with visible fascination as she is surrounded by most of the main characters from the film including Hoggle the dwarf, Ludo, a brown horned beast, William the worm, a blue worm-like creature wearing a tiny red scarf around its neck, Sir Didymus a talking Yorkshire Terrier wearing an eye patch and Ambrosius the dog sitting next to the bed near them. In the room there are several items referencing both the film and other Jim Henson works including the Muppets and The Dark Crystal, including a picture of Henson himself holding Kermit the frog hanging on the wall.

Well, having finished Andor season 2, I just finished rewatching Rogue One. I enjoyed it more in some ways for knowing some of Andor's backstory. But that just underscores how undeveloped the characters were. We were supposed to feel something when they all died at the end, in quick succession. But I didn't feel like I really got to know them, and it all happened too fast.

I thought it was average the first time, and my opinion hasn't really changed.
