Locked THE MANDALORIAN Season 1

[Clippy]

So far this ep is quite good - Mando has a conscious

He's not just guy who kills people

 

[Myrddin Wild]

retcons are all good, I was just rewatching the cartoon on disney + and thinking about things that could show up in future works

Yeah, they really did a lot of exploring on the Mandalorian culture in that series... & as I understand it, the new season they're making (release Feb. 2020) pretty much usez Mandalore as its focal point during
"The Siege of Mandalore" specifically.

Rebels had a good bit of it as well... & one of their main characterz Sabine... was a Mandalorian who very well could be the Armorer Lady. The house of Wren waz a very respected clan & she was pretty much offered the role of leader of Mandalore at one point but passed it on to someone more politically sound. She even weilded the Dark Saber for a time which is a Mandalorian artifact that represents Mandalorians united. So her getting respect makes sense. We'll see down the road if she starts painting thingz.

What Retcon did you disover?

Quick ep 3 review/thoughts (spoilers)

Mando Ep 3 is the best episode of this series so far

Well making up for the last episode's spinning of wheels

Nostalgia done right, like that black doctor ball robot, classic telescope machine view etc etc

The story progresses and like I thought, he hands baby over and feels bad about it and storms the gates to get him back

Now that mandos have the baby I am very interested to see what happens next

This is a great tribute to Star Wars for real star wars fans and I have great confidence in this show at the moment, I still can't say the same for the movies however

but I will continue to watch this TV show with an optimistic view

Aw those bastards did have to write in that Mandos can never take off their helmet?

Like never? Like never ever ever

Fuck it I will have to google Pedro Pascal's face if I want to see it I guess

Love Carl Weathers

Even love that evil emperor guy - the old man with the raspy slow voice. He's intimidating and I like him , seems like a true and true asshole

I like at the end Mando gives baby the thing to play with

I feel Mando is developing as a character now and really enjoy his relationship to Yoda baby

This slower paced story telling is actually a plus for star wars, not like the fast paced all over the place prequel action where a million conflicting set pieces crash into a 2 hour window, which might have been more enjoyable as a slow episodic series

Anyway I am about to re-watch ep 3, the first time I rewatched an ep of this

Good times

 

[Clippy]

Oh yeah and that flame thrower action is bad-ass

 

[Clippy]

I also like the robot driver who wanted to live

If I ever have time I'll have to really get a big breakdown of this ep but probably not quite busy

 

[Clippy]

Wait did Mando get a new helmet and how did he do that if he never takes his helmet off?

also how does he eat or get dental surgery?

Imagine trying to sleep in that shit.

 

[Clippy]

Imagine trying to sleep in that shit.

I do wonder why even get Pedro Pascal

Is he even there or is it voice over?

Fuck it just get some guy

This and Gwendoline Christie never showing their face absolutely baffles me

I have a feeling we will see his face.

He's gonna live the fantasy of 2/3rd of Sherdog's membership and smash thicc Carano with the force of 1000 Star Forges.

Spoiler

Probably not, but I just wanted to type that shit.

The Mandalorian did not turn out the way I pictured it would.

When I first learned that this series was in the works, for whatever reason, reading online speculation most likely, I imagined that we would be getting something very weighted, dramatic and complex. It could be that the waterboarding of premium drama series I have been put through in the last few years, such as The Sopranos, the daddy of these types of shows, and the lack of lighter "just for the fun of it" series, like Stranger Things, created a conceptual hangup of about the types of shows I thought I would find compelling.

With The Mandalorian, we have something thas has just enough story, character, depth, and diversity to justify all the shoosting and asskicking. The show takes itself seriously in that its creators want it to look good, to be coherent, to connect with the audience, but it's been going out of its way to not be bogged down by the writer's equivalent of over-engineering. The Mandalorian is like the shows I was raised on. Star Trek TOS and TNG, Saturday morning cartoons. It's fun, it's light, with the right amount of morality, politics, and human(sentient being?) relationships.

I hope the showrunners don't fall victim to an ever-increasing need to outdo the last action sequence.

When I realized I wasn't getting The Mandalorian: Game of Thrones, I wasn't disappointed to my own surprise. The show has been a real treat 3 episodes. Quite satisfied so far with something I didn't even know I wanted.

some of my favourite Baby Yoda Memes (will put in spoilers as to not bog down the thread):

I saw an article cite a press release saying Cara Dune is in Ep4, 7, 8. The promo stuff made it sound like she'd be like the sidekick from day one.

 

[GSP_37]

Damn, the 3rd episode was the strongest so far. Even though you pretty much knew what was going to go down it still was a great watch. Saw it twice. Lot of great moments

Spoiler

So far I'd say this is the best Star Wars Disney has put out. They really need to let Favreau and Filoni run things going forward.

Wasn't Filoni in charge of Clone Wars cartoon? Clone Wars had a ton of really shitty episodes.

I still have trust issues with Disnee so I am waiting for the other shoe to drop where they force political agenda into it or ruin some legacy characters tho

To no ones surprise feminists are mad about the lack of female representation in The Madalorian. I didn’t realize it was a requirement that women had to have equal representation in everything nowadays.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.in...ls-harass-women-female-representation-2019-11

To no ones surprise more people like The Mandalorian than any of the new/Disney wave of equal opportunity Star Wars movies. Hopefully Farvreau doesn’t cave. We haven’t even seen Gina yet. She could be badass.
