The Mandalorian: Jon Favreau gets it. He's put together a great TV series that keeps hitting the high marks for Star Wars fans. The second season was plenty of fun. Along the way there are great characters who show up from across the Star Wars galaxy and different platforms. It's awesome. I'm not saying it's perfect but it does such a great job of putting us in the Star Wars universe with characters, new or old, that we really like. I hope everyone else is enjoyed it as much as me.
Love it! So much better than the sequel trilogy. You're right, Favreau--and Dave Feloni--clearly get it.
ReplyDeleteIt's been so much fun to watch. Disney announced a ton more coming out which has me equally as excited. Can't wait to see what they have for us.
DeleteI know it's hard to compare movies to television shows... but The Mandalorian is hands down my favorite Star Wars show/movie. I actually feel guilty saying this, because the original trilogy is such a huge part of my childhood and something I'll continue to watch the rest of my life. But The Mandalorian is in a league of its own. And I love how they're making spinoffs with guest appearances like the whole MCU thing.
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you. The Mandalorian has the feel of what we expect from the Star Wars universe which for most of us is built off the original trilogy. Disney is doing it right so far. Can't wait to see what is next.
DeleteI didn't get into anything Star Wars until maybe 10 years ago when I watched the first 6 films to be able to then watch the last trilogy in theatre (didn't know there would be more when I watched the 6). Not a huge Star Wars fan, but I do get it and fins them entertaining. Mandalorian is by far the best of anything Star Wars I've seen though.
ReplyDeleteI put it right there at the top. My favorite movie is probably Rogue One. I love The Clone Wars animated series as well. But growing up in the era of the original trilogy it's great to see something like this finally come out.
DeleteI'm with you, I loved this show and can't wait to see what else they put out. That season finale was so great! My mom doesn't like Star Wars and she likes this show.
ReplyDeleteIt's awesome that your mom is into it. And yes the season finale was crazy good.
DeleteThe last 2 episodes of season 2 were especially fantastic! The teaser in the middle of the credits (Marvel style) just leaves you wanting more, and soon!
ReplyDeleteThat teaser was great. So much goodness to this show. Loving it.
