For those of you who are interested, it's 10 days now until The Mandalorian returns to Disney+. Best thing to come out of Disney Star Wars yet, and the second season looks set to be even better, with a wider reach, a chance to explore new stories and expand existing ones, in the company of Baby Yoda and Mando.

Anyone else excited?!

Not officially, as far as I'm aware: also fits in with the idea that we still don't even know that Ahsoka's appearing yet! But perhaps after that, and if it goes down well, then they'd announce plans for a series with her (and presumably also others, no more details as it spoils Rebels for those who might want to watch it).

Down to less than a week now!

Less than two days :)



1 day! :) :) :)
Just finished the new episode.

You won't be disappointed. A couple of lovely nods to the movies, and Ralph McQuarrie's art beautifully bought to life.
I'm someone who has only ever watched , probably a couple of star wars films on TV

Would I be lost watching this latest stuff and would need to watch all the earlier stuff , first ?
Baz, I think you'd be fine watching The Mandalorian. You certainly don't need any real knowledge about anything from the Sequel/Prequel movies, but knowledge of the original films, while not essential, might be advantageous.
Just watched it. Completely lived up to expectation :)
One scene a bit too 'jar jar' for me but it really galls to even think of criticising this show, they are doing fantastic work.
Bazile you don't need to know star wars to follow the story. I'd encourage everyone to watch it but I may be a little biased :)
//One scene a bit too 'jar jar' for me//

Which scene? The child with the pot? (I don't think that's too spoilery)
Question Author
Sense I got from this episode is that they're going to try and keep it self-contained even if they do reach out and grab stuff from other parts of Star Wars lore. The flashback sequence is probably not the only such we'll see in the coming weeks.

Not a bad start, glad it's stayed Mando-focused so far!
Yes I like the self contained episodes as well as the longer story arc. It can appeal to a larger that way too which is all good.

Mozz no , the pot was a bit obvious but it still worked for me (any scene with The Child works for me!).

The droids messing up in the background, drawing Peli's attention. in I found Jar Jar's constant background slapstick antics in Phantom Menace very distracting, though I appreciate it had it's audience (my son for one).
Ah yeah, the pit droids were a little daft. Kind of reminded me of the stupidity of the Battle Droids in TCW. I admit though, I was ignoring their antics as I was grinning like a fanboy at R5-D4 and his scorch marks from his exploded motivator.
Just finished episode 10. No spoilers, just that it's a bit of a filler episode, and I hope there are no arachnophobes out there.
Yes it wasn't the best episode, I am not at all keen on spiders which didn't help...
Always enjoy seeing X wings though :)
Question Author
Out of the ten episodes there've been so far, easily five could be called "filler". Maybe it's just that kind of show.

Still, signs are that next episode will see some plot development, as it seems that we're going to find out who that mysterious hooded figure in the trailer really is...
Question Author
Today's episode was... all right :)
Episode 11 is the absolute best, especially if you're a fan of The Clone Wars/Rebels.
Question Author
It'll (hopefully) be beaten only be episode 5 of the season. Can hardly wait!
I've not read the full thread in case of spoilers, I'm very much looking forward to seeing it... a whole season already to catch up on. yeah.
Arky, it's every bit as good as the first season.

Is it only me who gets a Firefly vibe from the show?
