Seems to be on track for its October release or whatever it was.

Watched the first two episodes. It's OK so far. Nothing mind-blowing or even great, just OK
The problem I have with Star Wars is I'm not a massive fan of the world building. It's good, but next to something like Tolkien's Middle Earth, Robert Jordan's Westlands or even Michael Moorcock's Young Kingdoms, I find a lot the elements boring.

When I first read the novelizations of the Original Trilogy films, I was pretty blown away by how much richer everything was in the book version. Like yeah, it definitely helped having seen the movies so I had a strong visual picture in my head, but man. So much more going on than the movies showed us, at every level of the story. Everything was so fleshed-out and had a lot more weight to it.
It was a neat experience.

That is what I was wondering, CyberCubed.
Did you all hear about the issues between Pedro Pascal and the production staff? Apparently he wanted for scenes without the helmet and was being difficult, leading to him being featured less this season and possibly on his way out? Let me see if i can find a good source, because I'm not even sure it is true. Either way, I won't cry if they replace him. Either way, they need to do something about all the voice-over. It sounded terrible in season 1 and took me out of nearly every scene. It was flat. If they can get someone in the suit, mic'd up, that'd be much better. or just get a voice actor at this point. Pedro Pascal has no skill as a voice actor and shouldn't be expected to assume the role gracefully. Last edited by AquaParade; 09-16-2020 at 10:49 AM. |

This episode gave me some major KOTOR flashbacks with the Krayt Dragon.

I like the show but each episode feels like filler. It feels like I'm watching a videogame sidequest or something. Mando visits a new town, meets an NPC with a problem, has a "quest," where they drive to location, beat giant monster boss, Mando gets armor as a prize.
This whole show is a videogame disguised as a TV show. |

Something about the show just feels off to me. It has since the start. I'll need more time, but maybe I just find much of the acting to be weak. Not everyone, but most main cast members.
I'm still tuning in, because I love the sets, the costumes, the universe, etc.. hoping it will improve. |

I thought the Krayt design from the show was fine. I enjoyed everything about the episode. If I'm going to nit-pick, I'd say I would have liked to see the Krayt dragon resemble the one from the game more, simply for my own selfish fanboy side.

The second ep was nice visually but pretty much another monster of the week episode with the giant spiders. I like the show visual/action wise but there really isn't much story outside a small handful of eps.

I hope they finally explain Boba/Jango being mandolorian or trained by mandolorian's or whatever. It's ridiculous how mandalorian's became a thing because of how popular Boba Fett was only for him to later be said "oh he wasn't mandolorian, he only stole the armor". This show will finally give Boba Fett a worthy backstory I hope. It's great seeing Temuera Morrison back, he should've gotten some screen time as a clone trooper in Episode III.

So we finally got confirmation in the latest episode that Mando's tribe were a bunch of religious zealots, hence the helmet rule. And seeing Bo Katan in live action was awesome.
I'm guessing either the next episode or episode 5 is when we see Ahsoka.

The way I figure it, they can say Jango wasn't a Mandalorian... but Boba was taken in by the Mandalorians (like Dyn was) and raised as a Mandalorian after he lost his dad in Episode II. Given full rites, etc.. Quote:
