But The Mandalorian is where it's at! I've been loving it. The teaser got me hyped, and I can't wait for that trailer drop on the 23rd. This bot has C-3PO level AI.

He didn’t want to help the princess. He didn’t want to get in the escape pod. He didn’t want to find Luke and just walked off and ditched R2…b**ching the entire time…and that’s just the first half hour. He sucks. Now ME, I like THIS GUY. I’m with matspettersson.

That's because he was modeled on one of the 2 peasant characters in Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress. They DO NOT WANT to get involved but get involved anyway! Julien

You might have appreciated him more if he would have had a red arm.

admin wrote: Since my Jedi faith was somehow restored thanks to the Mandalorian, a friend pointed out that " Star Wars Rebel" was a good catch up to explain some of the Mandalorian storyline choices. Same writer ( Dave Filoni) who also directed Mando S01E01, S01E05 and S02E05. And now Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down as creative director of Lucasfilm... and David Filoni is taking over! => https://www.starwars.com/news/lucasfilm-leadershipJulien

Let's see how Filoni will deliver on the Mandalorian movie. The teaser poster is very much reminiscent of oldskool Star Wars! Attachment:
