Chindie Posted November 14, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted November 14, 2019 It wouldn't be a shock. The trailers have been pretty grim, the moment Ian McDiarmid cackled you knew this was at risk of being a stinker. Arguably Last Jedi also left them in a hole with its ending basically leaving the Not-Rebels as about 10 people. Meaning this film is going to to have to do some whacky stuff to get an old fashioned Star Wars spectacle romp. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 The other thing doomcock said was that no one will confirm it obviously but the budget has ballooned to $300m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wazzap24 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Well me Hearties, that was a most enjoyable first episode of the Mandalorian, with a great little ending. It was more than worth the dangerous voyage on the high seas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) Well episode 2 (of The Mandalorian) didn't go in the direction or style I hope'd it would. Not that it was awful but still. Hope this doesn't turn out to be a pure kids show aimed at selling Yoda jr and Boba Fett-ish toys for the holidays. Has always been, and always will be an element of this in Star Wars, from Jawas to Ewoks to whatever the f those penguin/seal/hamsters were in TLJ But if the story is not interesting enough and it's a too cynical thin veneer of "familiar things from old movies" over a weak story then I will lose interest. This was a let down from the promising pilot IMO Edited November 15, 2019 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If the Last Jedi wasn’t bad enough - in places!) Such as in cinemas and on TV screens. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Episode 2 was not very good. Feels like a Saturday morning cartoon. Nothing even happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Episode 1 when they were riding the animals and there was a shot from below showing them jumping over a gap I thought that's straight from the clone wars cartoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 If the entire season was out I might have enjoyed episode 2 more, but waiting a whole week for a little side quest is not it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Pah! Just no pleasing some people! Inner 4 year old dAVe80 is absolutely loving Then Mandalorian. Jawas, characters (or similar looking) from Empire and Jedi, Yoda Jr, and a Boba looking dude! If you'd told me I could watch a TV show like this, when I was a kid, my head would have exploded. I have spoken. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 For those wanting something to happen in the Mandalorian, episode 3 doesn't disappoint. Best episode yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, much better. Episode 2 felt like filler, which is crazy to say about a second episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Usually a group of us go and see the Star Wars films together (midnight). This year, we are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) I’m taking the kids on the opening Friday morning. No doubt they’ll love it, which will hopefully be enough for me! I’m expecting to walk away very disappointed but probably also relieved it’ll be all over and no further damage can be done to the original canon.
