That was an amazing ep, I don't mind going though some weird ones to pay off with episodes like this, fuck off haters.
- It made me want to punch myself... does that make me a hater?ArchitectofFate
- Them Praetorian guard guys were scary.zardoz
- punch yourself to make sure you aren't dreaming that we get such stunning visuals in a TV show.BabySnakes

Sigh. This show is just so much fucking fun.
Second ep is great. And Katee Sackhoff is still hot.

When I was watching that laser gate scene, my first thought was this scene from Blazing Saddles. Same energy:

This Obi Wan show is so shit. Fuck me why they keep fucking Star Wars up?

- Leia is a terrible child actor, much easier with a puppet I guess, still better than Book of Boba though, that was utter dogshit.fadein11
- Remember that thing you liked as a child? Bet you really wanted to know every single detail about the characters ruining any memory you had of it?PhanLo
- nice design throughout, which is always a huge part of why I love(d) it all.fadein11
- I totally disagree. This is the first time in ages I feel like they're on the upswing. It's actual Star Wars, not inconsequential bounty hunter stories.CyBrainX
- the chase scenes are an insult to people's intelligence. the story telling is fucking awful.Bluejam
- the chase scene was a terrible low point yep.fadein11
- watching the new stranger things it's night and day - it's actually really well shot and directed.inteliboy
- Are we talking about the 'chase Leia through the woods' scene? Because yeah ... even cartoons do better than that.Continuity
- yep, that's the one I meant, appalling.fadein11

- Every child actor in every Star Wars movie is super annoying. This little Laia is probably the least of any of them.BK

- The "Simpsons' comic book guy' force is strong in this thread.tank02
- Shitty writing, endless self reference, retconning, fucking with fan expectations, only mining previous SW for ideas. They need to stop and think in new ways.MrT
- Just ask old Carnival Cruise, they managed legacy sequalism pretty well with Maverick.MrT
- The Mandalorian was a return to basics. It worked beautifully. And now, back into Star Wars' own ass again.jagara
- I think part of the reason The Mandalorian worked over any SW since Rogue One is the fact Jon Favreau made it. If there's one thing he does well, it's ...Continuity

Is there a boba fett thread?
Man that last episode was terrible, two things irked me, the first was the western theme of that town in tattooine, why western? Felt so off, so cheesy and the second and major one was that we’re still in uncanny valley with you know who. Just looked terrible.
Why bother? A spitting image puppet would have looked better.- Sorry this was for episode 6 of boba fett which featured the mandalorian again_niko
- I enjoyed the shit out of it. normally that stuff irks me too... but I dunno, was entertained.inteliboy

- well i liked it.Brabo_Brabo
- Stopped watching about 2-3 episodes in...
The Mandalorian set the stakes too highgrafician - graf - watch the last two. they are pretty much Mandalorian episodes. the other episodes are bad.inteliboy
- Why western? The entire show is a western.monNom
- yeah basically but this is straight up spaghetti western, 6 shooters and everything. Don't get it, it's in a galaxy far, far away lol_niko
- I gave up on that series a few episodes ago. It's just intentionally mediocre.CyBrainX

I love the series but saying it's the best Star Wars has done is an overstatement. The plotlines are very thin in comparison. The main character needs something. He runs into opposition and does them a favor in exchange for what he wants. It's a bit formulaic.
Also, making Star Wars with no discussion of the force or having Jedi is a handicap. Take the episode with Rosario Dawson. Didn't that one feel like a breath of fresh air in comparison to most episodes?- Isn’t supposed to be a Space Spaghetti Western?nb
- It reminds me of MTV's Aeon Flux or Wylie Coyote and the Road Runner but better. It's less ambitious than a Star Wars film.CyBrainX
- In all fairness...it's probably less ambitious than Star Wars because they have to produce dozens and dozens of shows. Quantity goes up...quality goes down!utopian

Finished season 2 last night. Wow.
I struggled to get through season 1 because the show just wasn’t hitting the right notes for me. Too corny out of the gate, unimpressive rubber suit aliens, a little heavy on the lame jokes and one liners. Not enough of the lore.
But season 2 was totally different. Throughout the season i was continually impressed. Some of the best Star Wars action scenes and content I’ve seen in any movie. So much fun.
- in any Star Wars movie, that is.monospaced
- They seriously stepped up the production budget. Even the sound mic was leagues better in my opinion. Incredibly immersive and I even jumped a couple of times.monospaced
