Star Wars "The Mandalorian" Live Action TV Series

[Bruce Banner]

This week's episode, "The Tragedy"... WOW!
Seriously... certain scenes resulted in jumping out of the chair, cheering and fist pumping reactions.
This is the way!

[powersthatbe]

Strange Tales issue number 83 features a monster called Grogu.(apologies it was Grogg so in the words of gilda radner never mind btw is the mandalorian season one ever coming to DVD? (I dont have disney plus).

Thank you. I have never seen the show but I have a family member that finds him very cute.

I think everyone thinks he's cute, myself included.

So amazing what they've been able to do with the practical effects for him.

As long as it's not Luke Skywalker. We all know what happened to his students.

Or Obi-Wan (Anakin) or Yoda (Dooku)... come to think of if, Anakin may be the only example of a "good" Jedi master in Star Wars canon.

Yes, the show really "gets" that Star Wars is a samurai Western in space. I thought the episode was really well done.

*spoilers for those who have not seen this episode yet*

Plus... not to repeat myself... but if Ahsoka is back (!) and Thrawn is back (!!! I totally squee'd at his mention)... then I'd bet my beskar that Ezra Bridger is going to be the Jedi who answers the call to train the Child.

I was waiting for Mando to say "You're no daisy...you're no daisy at 'tall!"

Great episode. I was impressed with how they pulled off Dawson's look. I thought it may look a bit silly, but it didn't.

The Baby Yoda/The Child backlash is really old at this point. I love how the masses turn on something just because it gets popular.

Although his name reminds me of an old Lee/Kirby/Ditko giant monster from the pre-Marvel, Atlas days.

i noticed that too about her look. they may have done something to soften her features a little in order to look closer to the cartoon portrayal. i thought Rosario did a great job though. i did not even recognize Biehn until he spoke.

[palitoy]

I enjoyed it but I can't help but imagine how amazing it would have been had I known who these characters are

There was something weird about Rosario Dawson's look, like it was cgi manipulated, it wasn't that off putting, just something i noticed. Nice to see Michael Biehn in something.

now the toxic fan base is criticizing the character for abandoning the other younglings to die. i mean come on, really?

in the immortal words of William Shatner, "Get a life"

This was a great episode! I was tentative about a certain Jedi moving to live action, but I'm totally sold!

The Child has some backstory....

Another very interesting name drop was made as well..

Overall the setting, the forest, the and the samurai feeling from the episode was fun to watch.

.....and, we finally learned the name of the child and some of his back story. very interesting.

has anyone heard anything about bluray release dates for the first season?
