What ticks me off is this filler could easily work post-movie timeline. If they're going to bore me with this half-assed excuse for an 'original story' they could have at least have it set after the movie thus making it seem like new material. The problem with it being set before the film means that we know how it'll end because we know the future events (unless they dramatically diverge from the movie's events which we all know they don't have the scruples to do) and thus it's not interesting. Even the 'filler' characters who likely won't last long in terms of plot involvement are relatively bland with only a few unique aesthetic points for their designs.
