only true fans know why this is christmas themed

Christmas?

Wookieepedia says: The Holiday Special aired in the United States on November 17, 1978. Not really Christmas!

Has The Mandalorian Succumbed to the Dark Side?

Or they hired her simply for her physicality? She quite convey the might of the Empire. You don’t want a thin actress that would look like a pin-up in uniform!

ROTJ : 4 males, 1 female
Mando : 4 females, 1 male

Grogu is a child (maybe even a toddler?), Rey is an adult. As an adult she can better control her emotions than a child! Rey is self-taught, that’s a thing that adults does.

Exclusive Behind the Scenes Look at The Empire Strikes Back

I know all of this. It seemed to me that the effect supposedly being practical was given too much importance. Like in: practical is good, computer is bad.

It’s cool to have an effect with an old school look, I like it too. But how it is achieved is not relevant, imho. If there is a physical model, and if it is (most likely) 3D printed, that is not a telltale of a practical effect! That is not traditional model work at all! The more “natural” lighting of a physical model is I think what could be indicative of a practical effect.

The practical model is 3D printed from a computer file, shot with a digital camera on a computerized rig…

I can’t think of any model they trashed.

They trashed the first Death Star! The model was recovered from a dumpster by a fan, after ILM left Van Nuys.

SOURCE?!! Who said that Rogue Squadron is post TROS? And why the logo and announcement video uses a rebellion era T-65 X-wing?

how fascism can come about.

You don’t need a decade long overly complicated secret plan to stage a coup (just look at the state of the world today). The PT (and The Clone Wars animated TV show) fail completely to be relevant as understanding politics (especially the TV show aimed at children: the more political arcs are dreadfully boring)

Jedi should not form attachments, but they should totally breed together! Being force sensitive having to do with something in the blood, surely the offsprings of Jedi will be Jedi too!!

I think you can turn on fine tuning for the power distribution in the options of the game.

I wonder how long Rosario has to turn into Ahsoka… (The hair andmake-up, prosthetics, and wardrobe).

It doesn’t appear overly complicated to me : I don’t think there is any prosthetics to change her facial features, so it’s basically just makeup, blue contact lenses, and the head tails are just a hat !

The child’s name is a little silly, don’t you think?

Who’s betting that Ahsoka will appear in the Kenobi show ?!

A big disappointment I realize I had with her Rebels appearances is that she was actually really boring there?

Snips is not snippy anymore ?

I don’t know, I’ve found this band of misfits pretty funny ! (Besides, this show is just a way to continue The Clone Wars)

Rosario Dawson starred in Death Proof, the Quentin Tarantino movie!

Did you spot the IG-11 statue ?!

If they start veering down the Snoke/Palpatine/Exogol thread. I’m out.

It may very well be the backdrop of the story…
