Disney Star Wars was a mistake

That's pretty much universal at this point. I could of wrote  a better trilogy than Disney.

The problem is no one thought to actually write it as a trilogy as they were making it. Which can work with some films but definitely not with this franchise.

No Disney didn't think to do it that way. It's common sense that they apparently lacked.

Imma rant on this again but for now I will again say, I still love star wars as a whole, the world Lucas envisioned is great. The problem is some people who come into this world assume that the backdrop that star wars has is enough to carry a poorly written story or the elements that make star wars what it is are rejected.

The lack of any kind of plan is rather baffling. Like they really let Abrams do his thing and drop plot hooks that apperantly had no answers. It's fucking weird. I don't hate these movies but there is a a clear case of plan.

Everything that's coming out about Lucas sequel trilogy sounds so good. The large focus of criminal underworld got me drooling.

Maul building his crime syndicate was one of my favorite b-side stories in clone wars. I was mad when it was just suddenly dropped. I think we discussed that on the other forum though. When the series was cancelled for like the 80th time they moved that arc into the comics.

 

same with the republic occupation of mandalor

Technically that is how most trilogies are made outside a select few where they are guaranteed that third outing. Movie does well you make a sequel and another.

 

That being said with Star Wars and the sequel trilogy it was weird because they seemed to have a trilogy planned from the jump but they had no plan besides bring it back with new characters and even one of their major ones was meant to die originally.

Newest episode of Mando was so good

[Hawkingbird]

I laughed at how shocked he was when his fellow mando's took off their helmets like nothing. His house of mando's must have really been isolated from everyone else.

 

Thank the force that yoda didn't eat the baby frog when it hatched 

[Darc_Requiem]

Bruh this episode was the damn truth. I love how the Imperials shit their pants when they realized they were dealing with four Mandalorians 🤣

 

Side Note: It's so natural seeing Katee Sackhoff as Bo Katan in live action, she is her voice actor after all. 

 

Edit:

Imperial Commander: "How many are there?"

Storm Tropper: "Ten!"

Imperial Pilot: "There are four life signs sir."

 

🤣🤣🤣

The incompetence of the imperials was fucking hilarious. I knew what was gonna happen when they locked them in at cargo control. You fucking dumbass!

[TheInfernoman]

Just finished it, and some things never change. Stay Free Stormtroopers 🤣

The only competent people were on the bridge, from the looks of it. Even the Captain was taken aback by the stupidity.

I appreciate them having no-chill with Mando. When he tried to reprimand them for taking off their helmets they just responded with “oh, you’re one of them. Sorry, you were raised by fascists. Too bad so sad” 

 

mando’s body language was just “...wtf just happened.”

Bo-Katan's expression when he asked where did she get that armor was perfect. She was like...

The whole episode was great. Sasha as a Mando was cool too.

[Hawkingbird]

If Mando wants baby Yoda to be useful at starship repair he needs to not overload the kid with info. Take it slow and be patient with it. If he said nothing about crossing the wires he wouldn't have done it.

 

I laugh when the kid snatched those oreos with the force. Share next time so baby Yoda won't take your shit.

 

It was great to see Gina and Carl Weathers characters again. I need to know how much time as passed between seasons because that town is on a major upswing from the last time we saw it. It was cool they even brought back the bounty Mando handed in on episode 1.

I laughed hella hard at this too. I chalked it up to “The Child is an only child. Of course he’s gunna act like an asshole when he doesn’t get what he wants” 

 

The Child reacting to the mando vs the tie fighters was great too
