Darko posted:Mandalorians have consistently been the worst part of Star Wars with Rebels being the Prime example with the same guy running it, though.  Speak for yourself buddy. Mandalore and the stuff involving Sabine have been great. About the only thing I’m looking forward to is going back to the planet to see what’s up. Yeah, the 1st seasons episodes were good but there’s a rich history to explore. In a show based on a Mandalorian. From Mandalore. Called The Mandalorian.

Darko also speaks for me. The Mandalorians culture is impossibly lame. Just dorky-rear end Space Jehovah's Witnesses. They are only out-lamed by the inquisitors.

The reason there's no Mandalorian Inquisitor is because they strapped rockets onto their coptersaber and immediately nose-dived into a sarlacc pit No one knows where the sarlacc came from, because it wasn't there five seconds ago, and now it's completely vanished

Arc Hammer posted:But are we seriously going back to Tatooine and Nevarro again? I'm all for bringing back Amy Sedaris and Carl Weathers but can't they come visit Mando sometime rather than the other way around. This feels even more frustrating after Andor which showed us that yes, there's actually more than just four or five planets in this galaxy, and yes, we can actually go there and do things. I know it's a pretty old joke by now, but poo poo, for such a supposedly insignificant backwater of a planet, Tatooine in particular sure gets a gently caress ton of foot traffic .

If you're already on board with Mando I don't see why you don't watch the other stuff. It's not like they are on at the same time competing for your time.

It is funny that not only did he reunite with Grogu in another show, he also reunited with his people, revealed his secret shame, and got sent on a mystical quest which will presumably be the main thrust of this whole season. Doing one of those in a spinoff would be bold, but all of them!? It's like they set out to create the ultimate test of "this show is bad, but you have to watch it so you can follow the plot of the good show".

I think it's understandable to want to pick and choose which pieces of Star Wars media you want to engage in. I know some people who watched the first couple episodes of Book of Boba Fett, hated it, stopped watching it and said, "Eh, I'll come back for Mando season 3." In theory, that's not a crazy thing to think, they're different shows. Only, by the end of the season, that was no longer a viable option, and if those viewers didn't keep up with the story (again, not crazy), then this trailer would probably be a real wtf moment for them, seeing the major moment of the season 2 finale undone in between seasons. It's not a problem for me, I watch basically everything Star Wars puts out. But I get it.

Well I appreciated how Andor has almost zero connection to anything outside of Rogue One. Star Wars's obsession with interconnectivity and self reference has been a huge anchor around the franchise for way too long and it ends up strangling new ideas by tying them to the old. Even Andor can't entirely escape the self reference trap, but it tries drat hard to make it as low key as possible, at least until the post credit stinger.

Yeah, it'd be different if Mando was more of a cameo in Boba and you just saw what he'd been up to between seasons - that's more in line with the crossovers you'd generally expect these days, even from the MCU. But what they put in Boba was ridiculously important. If they didn't want to include it in season 3 they probably should have just made a two episode "Mandalorian season 2.5" thing instead to tide people over between seasons.

Boba was supposed to be only 4 episodes so this is probably exactly what happened when they added the two Mando specific episodes. Those could’ve easily been the first two episodes of season 3 instead.

The Book of Boba Fett could have been fine if they'd ditched all the "present day" stuff and kept it to his Dances with Tuskens story. Maybe do the present day stuff as an epilogue climax, but at least the stuff where he was learning the ways of the desert and his adventure with Fennec to steal back his ship were good. But everything about Mos Espa and the Pyke Syndicate and the Hutts was just crap.

There's this galaxy supposedly chocked to the brim with planets populated by collective trillions, but rarely do we get a sense of that because everything keeps needing to connect, leading to the same locations, the same two dozen or so characters over and over again, etc. It just feels like so much potential being repeatedly squandered just so we can do things like see what Ahsoka has been up to yet again, or whatever the gently caress. Andor was such a breath of fresh air. An entire series with no lightsabers, no mention of the force, or anything. Just new people in (mostly) new palces doing things.

It will be really weird for those binge watching Mandalorian in the future once season 3 is released. Yes, they can watch the Book of Bob between, but... How would they know? Once season 2 is finished, it will probably autoplay / show Season 3. Unless Disney Plus makes some custom screens or something, and even then it'd be an awkward explanation. From memory the Mandalorian episodes of Bob were completely self contained, so it almost makes sense to just retroactively move them into Mando Season 4 episodes, or put them up as a seperate, 3.5 season if you want to keep them in BOBF.

Isometric Bacon posted:It will be really weird for those binge watching Mandalorian in the future once season 3 is released. Not entirely, no. The end of the second Mando episode of BoBF has Mando joining up with the Boba crew on Tatooine, getting ready for the final battle. Though, strangely, Boba Fett doesn't speak for this scene. I always wondered if this was some contract thing, where these two episodes somehow counted as Mando episodes, so if Morrison spoke, they'd have to give him a guest star pay check or something? But I don't understand how any of that works, so that's probably dumb. Point is, they'd have to do some editing to make what you're describing work. But not much.
