A Boba Fett movie that connected into The Mandalorian Season 2 would have been ideal. Too late for that, unfortunately. An Obi Wan movie also would have worked.
Ehh I'm not sure. Give it 2 or 3 years (which it sounds like that's what they're doing anyways), announce it's set in the old republic time period, and I bet the fans turn out. With the exception of Solo (which was really a timing / marketing problem) Star Wars fans have proved again and again that they'll watch anything, even if they hate it.
