The Mandalorian (Star Wars live action show)

[mdmost 42841]

I'm just happy we finally get to see why Vader told Boba Fett, "no disintegrations". 

[oSuJeff97 3435]

Holy shit... McYoda gave me the lulz.

[mulletpelini 5209]

Haven't watched the newest one yet, and it might have already been mentioned, but the score so far seems more likely to fit a Rocky film than Star Wars?  Other than that, I've liked the first 2 eps.

 

 

[MissingInAction 24809]

Everyone: Ewoks and Porgs are so cute!

 

Baby Yoda: My beer, you will hold.

The score is more like a Leone film. 
I bet if you ran that drumbeat behind the good bad ugly opening music it would sound great.

The porgs were silly as was a lot of what went on on that island.

The ewoks were just horrible, maybe if it had just been wicket it wouldn’t have been as bad but you basically turned the rebellion into midget planet of the apes vs Palestine’s best men supposedly... now has they been run through like hot butter to buy time for the rebels to sabotage the relay station, ok.

Now if in the next 4 episodes kid green becomes this super power that defeats the remnants of the 501st by himself... I won’t be as high on kid green but as “the asset” he’s right below my own 2 kiddos.

The porgs were created to cover up the actual local birds (which were apparently a nuisance for filming).

[Duval Street 420]

Just noticed Spotify has the soundtrack for the first three chapters available, my new background noise for work.

One of my favorite YouTube channels.

I just started watching and this fucking show is amazing.

That scene where the Mando is attending to his wound and baby Yoda walks out of his pod, twice, to amble over and reach for his wound - there is not any scene like it in any of the movies. This scene has so much character development and portent, but pretty much nothing happens.  Since it's a series, the story really gets to breathe. It's just an amazing scene.

[MissingInAction 24809]

Agreed. It's the beginning of their bond. 

[Buzzrock 14870]

And that one scene resonates perfectly with both adults (parents especially) and kids. Similar to him trying to steal the shifter knob in e3.

[Buzzrock 14870]

It’s interesting that Gina Carano is showing up on all the promo screens. I wonder how prominent her character will be.

Love interest for Mando?

I noticed that, too, and sure enough it’s the same composer as Creed.

I believe it was Angus Young that was asked once, "Haven't you guys just basically made the same album 12 times?"  

Angus replied, "What an ignorant thing to say......it's been 13."

I've always noticed how close the Predator and Back to the Future scores were.....same deal.

[MissingInAction 24809]

I am not ashamed that I find this adorable.

 

[huge 3788]

Not a love interest, unless she is ok with no foreplay.

Mando has never removed his helmet.

Tell that to Gina Carano. She's whipping your ass and taking off your helmet.

ok

Basically all Michael bay movies have the same score...

The rock
Bad boys
Transformers
Con air
Etc

It’s either that driving “dun dun da dun dun daaa”
Or it’s the gospel choir-y sounding chants as the camera pans around in slow motion

[mulletpelini 5209]

I thought he was famous for the "BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".................(cut to next impact scene)"BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Huh?

[Junior Miller 1502]

Shit, I thought Gina Carano was playing the female Mandalorian who makes his armor. At least I was hoping since she's a terrible actress and I didn't want her ruining the scenes if they give her too many lines. 

[Buzzrock 14870]

That gif above is the most personality I’ve ever seen her exhibit.

[Speedtrucker 2063]

Huh?

Lmao

Damn autocorrect!

Thats fine.  She can just look good and kick ass.

[Buzzrock 14870]

She’s not exactly at her fighting weight any more. But I hope her character is good.

[Speedtrucker 2063]

She wasn’t the worst I’ve seen in haywire, she gained weight by Deadpool.

It appears she’ll be a minor role since everyone is kinda coming and going outside of mando and kid green.

Anyone else keep thinking "baby you've got a stew going" every time Carl weathers is on?

I keep thinking he cooked up a story and dropped the six of us in a meat grinder.  

[rantanamo 143]

Gonna have to take baby Yo to the republic or something.  This ep begs the question, that can a Mando mate with a non-Mando?  Is that why the foundlings are so important?  Oh yeah, Tooka or Loth-cat or whatever we call them.  Pillboy!!! for all you Good Place fans.

A change of pace in the storyline in this ep.  My least favorite of the 4 so far.

I kept waiting for an Ewok to pop out of the woods, or for them to take out the AT-ST with swinging logs.

Definitely the fluffiest episode of the four. And they used the same head fake from the first episode when Mando shot the IG droid.

If they had killed off kid green though they would have had riots on their hands. And my daughter was gonna be super pissed if Mando had left him with the shrimp farmers.

[MissingInAction 24809]

This ep felt like it was made for 8 year olds.

[brojangles2 781]

We have our first filler episode. In regards to Gina.....WOULD.

It is Disney. 

Anyway, Baby Yoda is a stone cold frog hunter.

Did you notice it was directed by Bryce Dallas Howard and not Filani or favreau?

Who the fuck is that?

They were going for a Magnificent 7 theme which was cool but predictable.

I was hoping baby yoda would use the force during the battle.

[Pato del Muerto 52338]

Ron Howard’s daughter. Redhead from Jurassic world. 

[mdleast 8258]

Yes been said before but I really like the show’s homages to samurai movies, which then influenced/were remade as westerns (and which were of course an influence on George Lucas). This week’s episode brought to you by The Seven Samurai/The Magnificent Seven.

 

[Levi 2576]

That episode was meh but it is Disney so I bet the kids will like it. Mini Yoda is still the shit and I’m digging him being a puppet a lot. It gives me ESB vibes 

[Speedtrucker 2063]

Side mission complete, back to the story missions next week!

Good episode for what it is.

Introduction of the rebel shock troopers.

I like the Indian chick though, or as the wife and I kept calling her Pocahontas.

Kid Green is basically my 3rd child now. I love him

[Neonmoon 38127]

Baby Yoda walking cracks me up 

[Radical Larry 28528]

Thought he was gonna crack the widow.
