Star Wars: The Mandalorian - Discussion Thread

Oh jeez, is IG-11 gonna be the comic relief?..."Like a child with a gun."

That kinda kills it for me..the character I mean. But maybe on screen it'll be different, but the way that was sounding...

Also guess further confirmation Boba and Jango aren't Mandos in this continuity.

Yes, he will be. He is being voiced by Taika Waititi. I'm fine with a comedic droid like HK-47 but I doubt they will go that angle. And even if they do, the voice actor's voice is incredibly grating and I don't see it working.

Moff Gideon 😂

I like the tag line - A New Hope for Tv,

Very fitting given this show has given hope to the Star Wars franchise again after the crap fest ST.

Which it honestly shouldn't be this way to begin with....but here we are.

Wellp, apparently this show is gonna have political messaging. I just hope it's not like..about our own RL stuff and more SW related, but we'll see.

Not surprised.

This is supposed to be set in a period of political instability: after the Empire was brought down, but before the New Republic was established and strong enough to police the galaxy with any sort of efficiency.

Like you said, I just don't want to see any real world political bleedover in the show... ermm

Favreau was asked if this show would include characters like Thrawn and Mara Jade. His response:

"I don't want to talk about anything that might be fun for people to discover," Favreau says. "We do have conversations. Part of what's fun to see if we could merge the worlds of the original trilogy, the prequels, the sequels, The Clones Wars, and what's been considered canon up to this point and what's been considered part of Legends. I think this show offers an opportunity to bring in all those elements so no matter what your flavor of Star Wars ice cream you like there will be something to enjoy. But you're asking the right questions."

Filoni also talked about his excitement at seeing one of his creations come to life on this show:

"Having a character you wrote walk up and talk to you in full costume on a set that you imagined that was a wonderful thing."

Well I just wonder who it could be if that is true? As if it wouldn’t be obvious, there’s only 3 possible characters of his that could be. However given the premise of the show, probably Sabine.

Favreau's comment just gives me hope the we'll be seeing a very dynamic cast of characters. 👆

Sabine would definitely make the most sense, but you know Filoni would try to cram Ahsoka into this by any means possible.

Probably...I still feel like she should have died at the finale in Season 2...<.<

But anyway, here's hoping so long as they aren't some kinda platform for ridiculous agendas about the real world that have nothing to do with SW.

Or indefinitely trapped in limbo.

Her being around post ROTJ is just retarded.

...mhmm

You sure hes not referring to characters hes created for The Mandalorian?

That said, I fully expect TCW and/or Rebels characters to pop up at some point.

Apparently Bill Burr is also in this? Didn't realize that...

I hope we get to see live versions of Ahsoka, Ezra, and Sabine in this. They are still alive in this part of the timeline as far as I know but they might not be in the same galaxy.

Evidently ~30mins of the show was released by Disney to a handful of journalists. Their reactions are overwhelmingly positive. 👆

I have a hard time trusting critics and journalists tbh.

^ Yeah I mean TFA and TLJ have RT % scores in like the 90s and 80s respectively.

It's not even just about SW, but rather everything these days....there's always some kinda agenda or false reports or whatever being written just for views or likes or to make 'entertainment'. Like just give me the truth, I don't care about all this nonsense or biased against so and so...your job is to write what is actually going on.

If you want to write a story, then become a novelist or something.

It's like there's no real journalism or critics anymore and you basically have to be an eye witness to get any kind of truth, which can be difficult or near impossible depending on what it is.

I mean I get critics are criticizing about something that can be viewed one way or the other, but be reasonable about it ya know?

Desperate Disney begging Prequel fans for their money now 😂

Except with those 2 films they didnt criticise. Like they all just turned a blind eye to the blatant faults in those films. And why? Because Disney has Star Wars now! Whoop!
