They are all so different.

Im honestly surprised those merch numbers for Mando & Grogu were that good but im not big into stuff like that

I'm not either but he nailed it when talking about people attempting to treat dissatisfaction with a movie as a character flaw.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. The special effects were supreme.

I found it entertaining. The action sequences were very good and the cinematography was on point for my liking. Sigourney Weaver was a bit of a waste Not amazing but a good watch.
I really liked the samurai assassin and the demon dog. A solid 7 out of 10 for me.

Yeah he was a cool villain stylistically.

The pit fight with the snake was pretty cool too. I liked how they went back to boss battles like season 1 and 2.

This is an absurd take. Project Hail Mary was one of the best movies of the year.

I watched M&G last night. I enjoyed it, but for that to be their Swann song, the plot was not worth it.

I agree. There wasnt a big payoff at the end. Im not sure what i would have done, but wouldve tried to provide more closure. I guess that was the end of season 3 though and taking back Mandalore.

The problem is these Star Wars geeks are going to poo poo all over it no matter what b/c it's not one of the originals or the prequels. It was a very entertaining move IMO that I enjoyed with 2 of my kids.

p.s. HD was not very kind to Sigourney Weaver

I was the first person in line to see Star Wars at 8 years old in my town. Lines for movies just started a summer or two before with Jaws. I remember seeing Empire Strikes Back with my cousins at Bon Marche Mall and then seeing Return of the Jedi in high school with my friends in the summer. Star Wars is a great memory and a big part of childhood moviegoing. It is not part of my core identity like most of this board seems to treat it. The way these grown men parse and obsess over it through endless threads is exhausting and a little sad. The Mandalorian FEELS like Star Wars to me. I'm laughing at the stupid little creatures and their voices even though I know it's silly- and there is some great action and scenery. To my sensibility - Jon Favreau and the Mandalorian is the only one who has reproduced that feel with any success.

Yep, I even enjoyed the elder fisherman on the river, but im sure that was horrible too to some posters here.
