I picked up on a lot of “divorced dad running errands” energy this episode.

I hope he loses that ship and gets a Razorcrest or something, it looks so fucking dumb with the big playground bubble on it

That was fun. I can’t wait for the other half of the first episode next week!

“It’s not TV. We’re not actually sure what it is at the moment.”

I think the nepo baby angle outweighs the nerdy loser speculation.

Maybe a TV show can be generation defining and also crap not worth watching.

I reaaaaally don’t think HBO is killing their goose via their VP of Tits (the guy who insisted to Neil Marshall that the woman on Bronn’s lap be topless). Their goose was raised on a diet of boobs.

It probably wasn’t her first prominent role, but the first thing I saw Amy Seimetz in was Upstream Color, with and directed by Shane Carruth, who turned out to be a psycho (in general but also I believe in direct relation to her). So she’s been dealing with this brand of bullshit for a long time, unfortunately.

“He’s nicer than my dad, more competent than Kevin Smith, and less creepy than the middle aged man I’ve secretly been dating since I was fourteen.”

In fairness, giving a fucked up white dude a blank check to chase his demons is their whole deal. That's how they got John Fron Cincinnati. 

Is this another example of film nerd who couldn’t get laid in high school and college gaining power to live out his arrested development fantasies?

At this point, I’m surprised Dee Bradley Baker doesn’t voice Grogu. He voices a very similar character (Murf) on Star Trek: Prodigy.

Yeah I feel conflicted. I heard so many raves about Euphoria and its cast and I felt like sooner or later I’d need to watch this generation defining television series.

Sam Levinson is a nepo baby try-hard hack. And seemingly a skeezy dude, to boot.

• The opening sequence, in which the Armorer presents a kid with his first Mandalorian helmet, was cute as a fake out (they make you think it’s kid Din Djarin!), but seeing dozens of Mandalorians get completely trashed by a giant alligator turtle, when they’re supposed to be the best warriors in the history of the…

I think the purrgil were there to kinda lead into Ezra and Thrawns return. But probably just some more fan service. The way you speak of Babu is blasphemy. That said I didn’t understand the Mandos getting destroyed by a giant crocodile either.

If Levinson is the best director Depp has worked with, maybe that’s because she’s used to stuff like Yoga Hosers.

I’d probably go C+ for this one as well; at some point even Din should harrumph over everything in his life requiring two roadtrips and a fight. Must make grocery shopping all sorts of hell.

My working theory is that this winds up in Din having to choose between wielding the Darksaber and carrying all that…

It’s a Levinson project. It’s his goddamn m.o. on almost everything.
