    It'a fitting that this episode of The Mandolarian homages Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, as his Hidden Fortress was a big influence on George Lucas in the first film.

      Yeah, Seven Samurai of course...but wanted to make the Western connection...because it ties with High Noon better, ha...

            I'll be at Galaxy's Edge next week so I'll report back!
            Well we got back yesterday from Disneyworld and no "baby Yoda" toys were found. They have a lot of Yoda toys, but I think they were holding off on the release of the toys due to not wanting to spoil the big reveal. I did see a Mandalorian AT-ST walker 3 3/4" scale there that was pretty cool.

            We were there this past week and the entire Galaxy's Edge land is quite awesome! It's rather overwhelming seeing a life size Millennium Falcon right in front of you I must say. The Smuggler's Run ride, where you fly the Falcon had quite a line to get on it, no Fastpasses are giving out for it yet. Very fun ride, it holds 6 people and that's how many we had so that worked out well. The rest of the new land was very detailed. We unfortunately missed the opening of the Rise of the Resistance ride by about a week (opens next week, and that's rumored to be a 15+ minute ride, so that should be cool.

                People are losing their minds over an overhead boom mic seen in episode 4...

                    Star Wars fans continue to be the Florida man of the hobby. At most you should get a chuckle out of something like that, move on and forget about it.
                    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                      Well, at least it's not as bad as the plastic water bottle and the Starbucks cup in Game of Thrones.

                            Yeah, it was really great seeing all of those things, and where they were.

                            ---------
                            Filming mistakes will happen, even in Miami Vice there was a large studio microphone strapped to a desk next to the guest star. I guess there are near endless examples.

                            I still think Padme slipping slightly in the Naboo Palace, on those really smooth floors, was actually a mistake that Lucas left in The Phantom Menace.

                              Looks like they fixed R5-D4 and have him working in the cantina.
