Yeeah...it's kinda hard to get into it when the Mandalorians haven't....really been great in this new Canon, least for me. Didn't really care much for them in Rebels....TCW the only good thing about em was the DeathWatch and even then it kinda was solely on Vizsla.Much prefer the Mandalorians pre-Canon reboot.
Much prefer Legends Mandalorians.

Much prefer Legends Mandalorians. [/B]
Even worse it's just some regular human based faction now. Or at least I don't recall their being any aliens among them, they started out as humans too...no Taung in the beginning...quite sad.
Pedro Pascal was cast as the lead role:

This is potentially a really good thing. The dude is a great actor. 👆
A recent set photo shows one of the actors in what appears to be Death Trooper armor, standing alongside the actors in Storm Trooper armor. So that's interesting.
Also, Gina Carano joins the cast in a yet undefined role:

Nick Nolte's on board now as well:

Pretty stacked cast. 👆
^ Classic Bounty Hunters (or their equivalent). More evidence this show is clearly a replacement for the Boba Fett film.
Now that I think about it, Solo probably would have been better as a series as well. A bit silly wasting a film on him meeting Chewie, winning the Falcon and doing the Kessel Run. Could have easily fitted in those things while focusing on a bigger space adventure series over a 10episode season.
^ Yeah he did. So he basically kicked off the Iron Franchise and the entire MCU.
He also directed Jungle Book. And he voiced Pre-Vizsla in TCW, so this is right up his alley. Still would have liked him to direct a Star Wars film though.
I cant see any reason to be excited for Episode 9. Will see if the first trailer can do anything to change that.

The inevitable watering down of the franchise was my biggest concern when Disney purchased the rights to SW. I didn't think they could do it anymore anymore than they already have.I wouldn't be surprised if we see an Early Adventures of Jar Jar series at some time down the road. I don't even want to consider the possibility of a live action Ezra at some point.

Yeah, and people wanted the Disney Trilogy to be good movies.
It's over - Disney destroyed the franchise.
Time to boycott these retards, until they sell the Star Wars franchise to a better company that will bring back the proper EU and show the stories the fans actually want to see.
