Is anyone watching The Mandalorian?

[George K]

Oh, yeah. In episode 1....huge worm that travels under the sand and eats people and animals.

C'mon, man!

[Mik]

Frankly, Herbert, I Dune not know where they got that idea.

It probably stands out because the rest of Star Wars is just so completely original and free of stolen ideas.

My daughter just started watching it last night and wants to replace baby Jesus with baby Yoda in our mantel manger scene. We drew the line there. We already have two white ceramic raptors with gold bowties (s&p shakers) to each side as the family joke.

In all fairness, the Krayt Dragon is a long-standing part of Star Wars lore from the comics in the 80s and some of the novels (who stole it from Dune...)

The entire Empire looks as though it's clothed in dodgy WW2 Nazi uniforms liberated from Elstree Studios. It's a little late to worry.

I lost interest when they showed Mando's face at the end of last season.

[Mik]

Ok, just watched the first two episodes. Fun!

[George K]

Giving up.

This is directed to the 10-year-old fanbois who think the dancing "Stormtroopers" at Disney world are coo.

Nice CGI, weak plots (perfectly suited to a 10-year-old mind).

I'm 4 episode in, and there's so much more I can waste my time on. It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's so predictable. It's freaking Disney and it shows.

Bah....

And yeah, I get what LuFin's Dad said about it being "fun."

If I want a disease fun, I'll get in touch with @Aqua-s-Sister. Give me The Expanse depth, complexity and a huge storyline. I feel like I'm watching the 1st 3 episodes of the trilogy/trilogy, albeit without Hayden Christensen.

Bah...again.

I watched it to the end. It gets progressively worse, with the last episode of season 2 being the worst.

You didn’t miss anything.

To be fair, that's also the German perspective on World Wars.

Is that a bad thing?

Asking for a friend, of course.

For many of those people that know all things Star Wars it got progressively more enjoyable. I think I wouldn’t have enjoyed it nearly as much without an interpreter who was “all in”.
