Yeah this is essentially a continuation of The Clone Wars. Will be interesting seeing what side they fall on, since I seem to recall it was implied the bad batchers weren't chipped like the rest of the clones. Will be interesting to see a young Fennic Shand and I expect an Ahsoka appearance at...

yes, but she doesn't improve at all, and they to date haven't highlighted her assets yet.

No its not. Every article about this in the last 2 days is coming from a single interview he gave on a podcast. It ain't happening, Disney just hasn't slammed the door in his face but they will if he keeps talking about it.

Holy fuck that was intense. I wasn't a huge fan of the style of sitcom at the start of the episode (showing my age) but the back half of that ep was fucking insane. Paul Bettany is totally killing it in this. It keeps getting better and better.

Amy Schumer as mayonnaise. Now thats an ad that gets right to the point.

Holy fuck that was an awesome episode. This is already pushing for my favorite thing Marvel has done so far. Hard to beat Thor3 but they are trying hard. Fucking A that was awesome from start to finish.

I used the "fat guy in a little coat" song from Tommy Boy as we were being seated to my date(there was a fat guy in a little coat in front of us), and subsequently, for the first time, banged the living crap out of a new girlfriend after this movie. It will live in infamy in my mind till I die...

Yeah this just turned into a straight ahead Marvel movie for sure. I'm such a sucker for looping back around and seeing events from another side after the fact. You absolutely couldn't have done this episodes tone shift in a movie, but it works so well in a serial tv show. Still loving this. And...

That is a very quick pass but yep, it certainly appears to be.

If you do a rewatch, make sure to follow the chronological order . I just finished a rewatch of both series a few months back right before the final season came out and it was much more coherent and flowed much better that way. Totally worth the time.

If thats true, its just more evidence she just doesn't get it. Luke was the only one that could have shown up at the end and had any impact for ALL SW fans. They could have used Cal Kestis or Ezra or some other more obscure Jedi but that would have had zero emotional impact on anyone who doesn't...

hahahaha holy shit that looks mindlessly incredible. Can't wait.

Thought the third episode was fantastic. I love the breaks in reality that happen each episode, that characters inside the world start realizing it isn't right. They've managed to create a real feeling of panic and tension in all of the times it has occured. I totally believe that when this is...

New Tomahawk dropped just now, digging it so far. Digging that Trevor Dunn has adopted Rutmanis' bass style to some extent on the last two albums since taking over. Love this band.

The big knock on this that I have seen from the review embargo lifting is that they should have just dumped most of it, if not at least the first three episodes at once. Apparently it totally starts paying off after what we have seen. And even being a comic nerd and extremely enjoying the first...

Really enjoying it so far. This is exactly the tone I was hoping for at the start, and I think I have a good idea where this is going. Contrary to what some above have said, I think this is going to be an insta rewatch to see all the clues I might have missed.

Acolyte Disney+ series will be based in the end of the High Republic era, but this so far is almost entirely publishing across all age groups for novels, and comics as well.

200 years before the OT era, ending 50 years before the Prequel era.

That's not totally accurate. The Acolyte series they announced for Disney+ occurs at the end of the High Republic era. I'm actually hopeful for this push, it smacks of the care and threads being interwoven that are very evident in the Mandalorian.

I've watched it half a dozen times since original air but not in the last few days. I would expect they would monkey with it if they had resources to throw at it. They did take the time to cut out jeans guy from episode 6 of this season even though I totally missed that on my first few viewings.

Just finished my first full rewatch through this. 3rd and 4th season are just absolutely fucking awesome. Still can't believe they gave Ezra such a fantastic arc. Everything I remember being great about this series was somehow better this time. But the helicopter lightsabers were still just as...

There's only a single Disney Gallery episode for the entire season 2 this year. Its not a series like last season

yeah with the way that was shown it didn't need to be force sensitivity, it just needed to be them addressing the new threat that just cruised their ship into the landing bay.

Had the opportunity to walk a Star Wars dabbler friend through the Ahsoka episode tonight when she got to it(at least my 12th viewing of that ep) which seems to be the cut off between the casuals and more hardcore, and ended up doing the entire end of the season with her. Had to take a 15 minute...

Co-worker gave me her HBOmax pass to watch this and I'm not even going to bother for free. I have not seen one positive review of this movie, even outside of here. Thanks for saving me the 2.5 hours.

I've alienated myself with my Star Wars defense before but come on with this....Merry Christmas you filthy animals.

Starting to believe Grogu might actually be alive...but seriously, how cool.

thats a great point

There's definitely a little plot hole. Once they had Grogu, Gideon's cruiser jumped to lightspeed and out of the system. Even if Luke went to Tython I don't see how he'd have any idea where to go next. But I've never been one to nitpick Star Wars, so didn't diminish the episode for me at all.

Lots of theory/speculation out there that Grogu is basically the anchor character to almost everything they have planned in the short term, even rumored stuff set hundreds of years after the OT.

Fennec is going to be in the Bad Batch series in some capacity, but that is immediately following Order 66 stuff, so well before this.

Pretty reputable sources with direct links to lucasfilm are saying otherwise. Looking more like the Boba Fett thing is a limited series (4-6 episodes and done) and Mandalorian keeps going and the focus switches to reclaiming Mandalore.

A little clunky (not maclunky) in parts pacing wise but god damn if I didn't feel 10 years old again once Luke showed up. I cannot believe what Favreau and Filoni have pulled off in two seasons with such consistency. Almost every episode this season was the new best episode ever. They just keep...

I actually like the current Boba Fett look better (the cleaned up version in s2e7) than the original jumpsuit underneath. Something seems more tribal/primative about it and I think it matches well with his mysterious backstory since escaping the Sarlaac, as well as his fighting style. Given the...

seismic charges

Operation Cinder is also a major plot thread in the third Aftermath book, which also ends with the Battle of Jakku

I gained a ton of respect for his acting chops with that scene at the table. You could totally see him cracking and knew what was coming the whole time. Pedro also did a great job of showing how uncomfortable he was having his face visible.

Boba Fett is just a part of this show now. And cooler than ever somehow. Fucking 2020.

yeah, they just might be doing this shit (blowing our minds the last decade) again, right in front of our eyes. Loki has always been the best.
