The Mandalorian on Disney+

So far I’m in the “I’ll keep giving it a chance” camp. Episode 1 was ok, 2 I thought was very slow and felt like an odd second episode.

Two and one were likely one episode that they divided to give to shows that first week. I expect the remainder will all be about an hour. I am a homer and love them all!

I like it better now that I've cleared up that it's not Boba Fett. I enjoyed the 2nd episode more than the 1st. The character seems to be developing well. I also like Kuiil a lot.

There were still a couple of things that bugged me... I was a bit surprised to see Jawas and with the same style vehicle as they have on Tatooine...ok I'll admit, I felt that was lazy by the writers... and was it weird to anyone else that the Child could use the force like that with no training (or maybe he's been trained?? He is 50 years old...)

LOL Maybe I'm a tough customer. I'll keep watching. After all, it is Star Wars.

I have spoken.

Well, it’s Star Wars, so if you want to start understanding every detail I’d recommend hitting up wookiepedia (yes it’s a thing) and start learning about all the different “canons”, as there are quite a few, which has led to lots of different spin offs. Not everything is as it seems I guess. This is also where people get different ideas for the overall series on trying to guesstimate things like who Supreme leader Snoke is (palpatine? Jar jar binks? Yes there is a theory on this).

you have to treat the mandalorian as a new, original story within the Star Wars universe to show you a perspective of post return of theJedi. Who knows how babyYoda knows the force.

I actually liked it a lot.....my wife even liked it and she doesn't care for anything Star Wars related.

I'll binge watch it when the first season is further along.

Well, made it 2 days, watched episode 1 with the kids last night. I thought it was good, the main character is much "warmer" than I expected. I'll keep watching

Todays episode was great. Baby yoda and the mandalorian vs the world. I love it. LOL.
The jetpacks, all the mandalorians,etc. Good stuff.
We all know who the real enemy is now...

So......

I assume everyone has watched it through?

My wife and I watched the whole series during Christmas break. We both liked them....although she is infatuated with The Child.

I liked it a lot. A few episodes were pretty boring to me, like the space jail episode, but all together the first season was enjoyable.

I like the show. It’s one of just a few I follow

Han · Jan 12, 2020

This is the way.

CubsFan · Jan 13, 2020

Just watched the first episode again. In the end I feel like baby yoda could have Jedi mind tricked mando into killing the droid and then has used him until he’s ready to carry out some bad guy stuff. Baby yoda is the bad guy. He’s 50. He knows what’s up. Adorably deadly.

I hope that’s the marvel “what if” universe. I love baby yoda. Just nerding out.

But does he really understand his powers? The Child took a nap after one incident. He's 50, but from a species that can get very old...900? That does open up some issues with the little guy not knowing his own strength, he could be grumpy kid and destroy everything.....follow the dark side.

I'm going to take the series similar to "Tanked". If it's on, I'll watch it, but if it didn't exist I would have been ok. It's kind of hodge podged together. A little of this, a smatter of that, lets throw it against the window and see what sticks.

Daniel@R2R · Jan 13, 2020

I'm hooked on it. LOL

Brew12 · Jan 13, 2020

I thought the series started slow but got better as it went.

I also suspect that this is going to be a setup for future movies. With the time period this takes place, baby yoda has the potential to be a young adult right after Rise of Skywalker. So many possibilities.....
