The Mandalorian

[Del]

There are women out there "breastfeeding" their Baby Yoda dolls.

Ick. Puke. Blech.

Don't know what it is, but I'm agin' it.

This thread went south rather fast....

Anyway, I watch it. I love it, as do my kids. It ain't perfect, but it's the best thing SW has going on since the Disney acquisition. They did a good job with the final episodes of Clone Wars (released last year), and I really liked Rogue One, but the rest of Disney Star Wars has been trash. Never should've 86'd the extended universe novels. I used to really enjoy the books, but almost all the novels I read since the mouse took over have been mediocre.

It was cool to see Katee Sackhoff getting to play Bo-Katan in the flesh after she voiced the character on Clone Wars & Rebels. Looking forward to seeing Ahsoka, and whatever they're going to do with Boba Fett.

True.

[mcommini]

Not just a a good Star Wars show- probably the best episodic show out right now.

i haven't watched it; for that matter, most of the recent buzz about Star Wars has been politicized... or is that just me?

Most of the recent buzz about EVERYTHING has been politicized...

But thus far The Mandalorian has been blissfully apolitical, letting the story take center stage over any sort of agenda. But because our culture can't let anything be good there've been attacks on the show and some actors because they been deemed problematic by the neo-puritans.

How excitingly tiresome.

I vaguely recall some complaints over the first film in the new trilogy because it featured a black stormtrooper - which made no sense, given that black characters like Lando had been around since the original trilogy.

Which is exactly why The Mandalorian is such a delightful and refreshing oasis!

Kick back, relax, and fawn over Baby Yoda with your kids. This is the way.

I don't really want to discuss all that here, it's sort of been done elsewhere round these parts, and I'd rather celebrate the pulpy fun of the Mandalorian rather than the dour politicization of the new Trilogy

No. “The Way” was the first word adopted to describe the followers of Christ.

Following the merchandising you are. Taken leave of your capability of discernment you have.

It may be that his years waging war on Christmas has given him over to consumeristic tendencies. We need a Christmas miracle.

Are you so sure that attacking the new Trilogy for being a "dour politicization" may not, itself, be a "neo-puritan problematical deeming"?

Even though I thawt the new trilogy wuz da bomb (tho ya already knew dat), lookin' forward to seeing this somehow, someday, someway, maybe on blu-ray.

Disney plus is $6.99/month. Just get it for this. It's worth it.

I told my ex I bought a subscription for our kids for Christmas last year... It was really so I could watch the Mandalorian
