Star Wars: The Mandalorian

Jon Favreau is directing this live-action TV series.

Looks TIGHT.

Quote:
Production on the first Star Wars live-action streaming series has begun!

After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.

The series will be written and executive produced by Emmy-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau, as previously announced, with Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels) directing the first episode.

Additional episodic directors include Deborah Chow (Jessica Jones), Rick Famuyiwa (Dope), Bryce Dallas Howard (Solemates), and Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok).

It will be executive produced by Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. Karen Gilchrist will serve as co-executive producer. Stay tuned to StarWars.com for updates.

It's not actively bad, but they set a bar that they haven't reached. I thought the first 2 episodes were awfully good and they sucked me in, but apart from a couple of cool (and extremely well done) aerial fight sequences and some interesting call backs, the show has meandered quite a bit through the middle.

We'll see if they pull it back together but you consider the middle episodes of last season had Bill Burr and the helmet remove and all that - it's a definite step down.
Glad I'm not the only one. Granted, I'm not a huge Star Wars "holy shit do you know who that guy is and why it's important?" type of fan. I watched the movies as a kid, watched the shitty prequels and the shitty Disney reboots or whatever...and gave up on Star Wars until the Mandalorian. LOVED season 1 and 2...this season...is boring me to tears. The kick ass space fight in episode 2 (I think it was) was awesome. But the rest of it...I get it is a huge set up but its frankly boring as hell. The dialog is clunky too, and Carl Weathers is...bad...not in a good way.

Anyhoo, I'm sure I'll get flamed for not "getting it" but I just want to be entertained. The first two seasons did that in spades. This last season...eh...nope...so far anyway.

This is the official star wars galaxy map. You are looking at the unknown regions.

Exegol is the planet where the Sith Cultists gathered to resurrect Palpatine.

The Chiss Ascendancy is where Grand Admiral Thrawn is from.

Ah, thanks. Exegol was the only planet I recognized.

When I saw "Chiss", the first thing that popped to mind was that reptile race that went to war with the Republic after the Thrawn series had come to an end, but I knew that was wrong.

Heartbreaking. Some of the best storytelling Lucasfilm has done.
I'm only episode 5 but man I love SW animation.

The side quest was a little too neat, although enjoyable. Felt like Star Wars flavored cheese. Other than that it's about time they took care of the detail that was settled at the end of the episode. I have been annoyed by it as it seemed like it could have been easily resolved in several ways before this. Nice dramatic timing in the story arc I guess but this season the show seems to be more Star Wars and less Mandalorian if you know what I mean. I don't want to see a really good show fall away from what made it outstanding.

I was wondering how that was going to get done. The loophole works I suppose, but they could have used that the minute it happened.

Enjoyed the episode. Bryce Dallas Howard is become a pretty decent director for the SW Universe.


Also, very disappointed we didn't get a The Metal reference. Lol

This show fell the **** off this season.

Maybe they end on a high note, but very disappointing season thus far.
