Mocata

There are lot of similar ships, especially in the PT since that was the design intention.

Does anyone know what this problem is caused by? One suggestion in the link but nothing concrete.

Okay I’ve just thought of something, but Obi-wan says his pupil was called Darth Vader. As in that was his first and last name, a normal name. Not some dumbass evil moniker like every other dumbass red saber swinging goof in the universe.

How embarrassing.

Yeah that was the best part of the new BTS video. Oh and Boba playing guitar too.

Merry Christmas

Kinda makes the whole thing even worse if I’m honest.

The last couple frames do look more like the A-Wing.

I think the car is actually the bridge window support strut being knocked out by the impact.

Replying to an old discussion here but I always thought it was the Buick

Yeah but Grogu isn’t going to be at Jedi School long or there’s no future for this series right?

Has The Mandalorian Succumbed to the Dark Side?

Very interesting and some very valid points. Maybe goes a bit off track and overboard in the second half of the analysis though.

I’m into series 3 now and the best elements are still the villains and the clones. Actual Jedi? Not so much. I feel like Anakin and Obiwan are still doing their wooden PT schtick and nothing has clicked with Ahsoka.

I’m sure he will phone in a few lines for an awful digital double if they offer enough cash.

Eh. I was more at stage one after kind of enjoying the robot scenes.

Yeah but it doesn’t make sense why they would hire a martial artist to play such an insignificant role

She might be someone’s friend or cousin who happens to be a martial artist…

Or she was doing stunts without getting any screen time herself and they gave her a cameo.

Darth Vader and Tarkin should not be in Rogue One and the Death Star should be rumoured and not been seen.

Din doesn’t even know his name. I wouldn’t give over my child to a stranger with that serial killer stare.

There’s a lot of stuff they can use, and I want to see more underworld stories. Will Daniel Logan get to be young Boba I wonder?

They’re both distinctly below average, but I agree entirely about the release date problem.

Lucasfilm 2020 Christmas Card

Yeah. But also they reminded me of

Marvel de-ages the real actors, while Lucasfilm are using stand-ins. The results are clear when the best use of this was Kurt Russell in GOTG2 i.e. his makeup was done first to help the effect.

The Dark Troopers were cool but now they’ve had their limitations shown it needs something new. You can’t have an enemy that is nearly invincible until a lightsaber arrives, there’s no room for a style of battle scene in between. I expect they will explore whatever the bodies were that rejected Grogu’s blood in Chapter 12.

Ask the most casual viewer or child and they’ll tell you in just a few words what the prequels and OT are about.
The sequels? Well, things happened. What exactly? Need some mental gymnastics to answer that.

A fledgling hero must join with new friends to stop an evil force from taking over the galaxy, while figuring out her identity. That’s the story. The specific details and internal mechanics of the story might not be good. But it takes far more mental gymnastics to ignore this and complain endlessly in a thread about The Mandalorian.

It’s almost like they have all this great material hoarded but don’t like to admit that deleted scenes exist for anything.

Wow the new deepfake took like a day and still looks better than theirs? Jeez.

I think the difference between the prequels and sequels is that one tells a story, and one does not.
No matter how badly the prequels were executed, at least there was a clear story that was being built on. The Sequels are simply a mishmash of ideas with no clear story or message. And for that reason, I don’t think they will ever be remembered fondly.

They had one chance to build a third instalment that tied it together in a nice triad. But instead it was written by hacks.

Yeah chapter 14 and 16 felt rushed to me which is a shame.

Anyway I made a thing for some levity around here.
