Fixxxer Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 A Star Wars western? Looks good, directed by Jon Favreau and featuring Bill Burr. Quote
LeGOATski Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 This is the pivotal moment of Bill Burr's career, no doubt.... ? They recently screened 30 mins of the show to a public audience and the reviews are very good. They said it looks and feels like a Star Wars movie. The production and cinematography are top notch.

ChevyVanMiller Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 According to IMDB, Bill Burr is only in one of the 8 episodes. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8111088/fullcredits Quote
Warcodered Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Carl Weathers is going to be in this? Damn now I can't just say the one that was in Star Wars when I'm struggling to separate him and Billy Dee Williams in my head. Edited October 26, 2019 by Warcodered Quote

At least he won't have to dig through the Bluth's trash for a meal anymore. Quote
LeGOATski Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 New trailer dropped during MNF This one gives us a better idea of the beasts in this show. 1 Quote
Just Jack Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 So, three episodes out now, what's everyone's thoughts? I'm really liking it. I did read one article questioning why the episodes are only about 30 minutes long, but to me, it feels right. Quote

The musical score is polarizing, but I've liked it. The story has been a bit weak in some spots. I'm not sure, but I think they might do something like Game of Thrones where the last couple episodes are longer. Quote
eball Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 We've enjoyed it. Really curious about "baby Yoda" and how that plays out. The timeframe is supposedly five years after ROTJ and before the rise of the New Order. Quote

Better than any of the woke-ified movies they've put out the past couple years, for certain. I'm also a sucker for Mandalorian lore, so, there's that. Quote

Sure you don't mean wookie-fied? New show is light fun. Emphasis so far on light. Edited November 27, 2019 by Sundancer Quote
Just Jack Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 Baby Yoda was almost a CGI done character. https://www.indiewire.com/2019/11/werner-herzog-baby-yoda-cowards-puppet-cgi-1202192502/ Quote

If it's been all puppet, then that's damn impressive. Quote
Just Jack Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Who will save the day? Will it be Baby Yoda? The bounty hunter droid? Someone else? Quote
/dev/null Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Anyone else disturbed the thought of Gus Fring with Baby Yoda? Quote

IG-11 is going to come in guns blazing. I assume they programmed it to protect baby Yoda before setting off on their mission. After the ending, I was thinking that it was stupid of the scout troopers to not check the ship before speeding back. But, scout troopers have never been too bright. Quote
UConn James Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 Wow. This series has been a great addition & and breath of fresh air to the Star Wars universe. Shouldn’t be surprised that the former / final(?) imperial leader of Mandalore has the Blacksaber, as that’s where the Clone Wars series left things. Awesome! Dave Filoni &/or Jon Favreau should take over for Kathleen Kennedy. Quote
