The Mandalorian Season 2 - Official Thread

[Formerly Black Trash]

You're right but the ironic part is I was fine with Luke coming back. And I'm VOCAL about Star Wars reliance on fan service

The Mandalorian got plenty fan service but what they're getting right is not making it empty and cheap. That's what gives fan service a bad reputation

They crafted it in a way where you'd be disappointed if Luke DIDN'T show up based on who he is at that time and Grogu /The Force calling out to him

But a nikka can say the cgi was trash and took you out of it a bit damn

Again tho you right and us criticizers might have to just gone head and wait till the stanning eases down a bit nikkas rabid right now

I wish it wasn't Luke but I dont have a problem with it being him
I had less of a problem with Lukes portrayl in TLJ more so than I had an issue with the casino portion and it not moving any characters forward in the story

But people are just chomping at the bit to see Luke fukk shyt up and I dont care about all that so much as the story being good

Why couldn't they use the same technology they used in the IrishMan?

That last episode was fire B

 

[Woodrow]

He had a legit point tho

It was a great episode but damn nikkas can't criticize?

my issue isn’t the critique. it’s a valid criticism. my issue personally is people who act like including Sebastian Stan matters, when it doesn’t.

the fx on Luke could have been much better. no debating that. but somehow the episode, and the season, were a failure because they didn’t cast winter soldier to play young Luke?

The way some were talking about it, you’d think that was the case.

It’s the same reason imo people felt the need to rail against grogu eating the fish eggs. They have no insight into what that moment could mean three seasons from now, or if it matters at all. But their vision of what they want from the character isn’t being honored. So what they’re seeing is wrong.

there’s no perspective to it. It’s just “look I found something wrong, why didn’t they do this instead.”

It probably was the same tech as the Irishman

What y'all gotta understand about the aging tech is its very delicate science when you considering shyt like lighting

Consider something like Rogue one. Nikkas didn't mind Tarkin much because he was basically in the dark so it looked better. On the other hand Leia at the end was looking for that 3 secs in that bright ass ship.

That Luke would've looked better if they dimmed the lights

I still think Marvel's use of it is better than anybody elses tho

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

I hope yo ass WRONG as fukk my nikka

Star Wars got to much going on to dip into time travel/alt universes. I would hate that more than fan service. It's cheap as it gets

Keep in mind that Marvel's whole next wave is knee deep in alt universes and can become a played out trope real quick if they're not careful. We'll see how that works out

But "Oh that don't count that was another world" can't always be the go to. That's nuclear codes button level

And honestly the macro plot points in the new trilogy aint SO bad it can't exist in this universe. The real problem with the sequel trilogy is the emptiness of the characters

They already dipped into time travel in Rebels though...

Spoiler

That's how Ahsoka survived Vader

I don't know shyt about Rebels but my point still stands

About to be a lot of time travel/multiverse shyt going forward. Star Wars should stay away from it

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

Yeah
I think it was bad in Rebels too
No need to make it a regular thing

And I disagree...

The damage the DT did to the franchise is far too big to just simply ignore...

I'm fine with any method used to wipe it out...

 

[The ADD]

Time travel was covered in Rebels but as part of the story it wasn't easily done. Ashoka even stopped Ezra from doing it. I doubt they use it again or as a foundation of story arcs.

 

[O.Red]

Yeah
I think it was bad in Rebels too
No need to make it a regular thing

That multiverse time travel shyt is cheap. And can very easily cheapen everything around it

There's nothing about them movies that's so bad it can't be worked around. We're seeing it happen now with all the shyt the Mandalorian fixed

That shyt is reserved for LAST last resorts

 

[O.Red]

3 minutes of Luke and 3 minutes of Vader have been better then anything Star Wars related since 1983

That's an insult to all the actual good Star Wars shyt out there

Attitudes like this how you ended up with episode 7-9

 

[OmegaK2099]

Dude from tenet composed the music for this, the dubstep trooper theme and Luke's theme were both fire

Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett Slated to Debut Before Mandalorian S3
Appearing on Good Morning America, Jon Favreau officially announced The Book of Boba Fett, explaining it will debut for The Mandalorian's Season 3.


WARNING: The following contains spoilers for The Mandalorian, "Chapter 16: The Rescue," streaming now on Disney+.

Season 2 of The Mandalorian ended with an after-credits scene that teased an upcoming project titled The Book of Boba Fett, arriving on Disney+ in Dec. 2021.

Now, creator and executive producer Jon Favreau has clarified how this project fits in with The Mandalorian. Appearing on Good Morning America, Favreau officially announced The Book of Boba Fett, a new series coming to Disney's streaming service that will air before The Mandalorian Season 3.

While talking about the new project, Favreau revealed why The Book of Boba Fett wasn't announced at Disney Investor Day, which was held on Dec. 10, and where the series falls in the timeline.

"This is actually separate from The Mandalorian Season 3," Favreau explained. "But what we didn't say in that announcement is that the next show coming up, Kathleen [Kennedy] said 'the next chapter,' and that's going to be The Book of Boba Fett -- and then we go into production right after that on Season 3 of The Mandalorian, back with the main character that we all have known and loved." Favreau confirmed that The Book of Boba Fett is currently in production with The Mandalorian Season 3 in pre-production.


Season 2 of The Mandalorian ended with Grogu being taken in the care of Luke Skywalker, while Din Djarin's next adventure teased his involvement with the Darksaber and the throne of Mandalore. But first, we will see what happens with Boba Fett, after he has taken over Jabba the Hutt's seat of power.

Created by Jon Favreau, The Mandalorian stars Pedro Pascal, with guest stars Gina Carano, Carl Weathers and Giancarlo Esposito. Directors for the new season include Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Bryce Dallas Howard, Rick Famuyiwa, Carl Weathers, Peyton Reed and Robert Rodriguez. New episodes arrive every Friday on Disney+.

Don't forget Rogue One had a lot of problems and had to be reshot and redone a lot. The only Star Wars film that didn't have big issues during it's production was The Last Jedi, which was the film that threw most of what was re-done in TFA to the bushes..the MAIN issue people have with KK is that basically she never planned shyt for the future (and I'm someone who likes TLJ more than TFA). She just wanted to have a big blockbuster SW film every year, stories mattered very little to her so whatever she thought would make money, she ok'd, and whenever she saw issues, she meddled in and changed course, even in the middle of production.

Solo was a fukking disaster and basically showed she just got lucky with Rogue One (similar issues, similar "let's try to save the film in post production and with reshoots "solution"). And the sequel trilogy were 3 movies that had little to no connection between them and had ZERO gameplan.

Disney could be somewhat happy with her because she still made them a shyt ton of money with most of her SW movies. But she's the main reason why the franchise was basically broken once Rise of Skywalker ended. She was supposed to make shyt flow and build like Feige, not throw shyt at the wall for 6 years and leave the franchise without any direction whatsoever.

The hate from the fandom is warranted imo, she shyt the bed with a franchise that was teflon and needed other people to save it. The fact it took just a dozen TV episodes to restore the feeling just shows you that doing great things with Star Wars ain't rocket science.

Solo is one of the better Star Wars movies to be honest

What Solo really suffered from is the residual backlash from Last Jedi. Coming out so soon after that movie hurt it a lot

It's only been two years but it's aged well. It a bigger cult following than nikkas may realize

 

[Los!]

Rogue one was good though only thing
.....
fukking suicide mission
