Very fun, it left me happy and wanting more.

I loved the tone, and the dirty, real-world feel. I loved that the main character barely spoke for the first half, to the point of being obnoxious. Made him more serious and mysterious.

I just went back and listened twice and I can’t pick out Yoda’s theme. Are you sure?

Life Day wasn’t the only reference to the Star Wars Holiday Special. The weapon our main character used to subdue the ice creature was an Amban Phase Pulse Blaster which we first saw used by Boba Fett (to subdue another creature) in the animated portion of the Holiday Special.
 

I agree what a mind-blowing show, this is like straight out of a new hope. I don’t know how to describe it I just feel like this is the Star wars I remember as a 10 year old boy. I was ready for the letdown because I was so hyped and it ended up being better than I could ever have expected. Love the dirty…

I know. But at least you try. That’s more than a lot of folks do, sadly. And with practice, the mistakes will get fewer and the successes more frequent.

It is sort of reminiscent of Snakes on a Plane. Originally meant to be some forgotten PG-13 trifle, but was instead the internet mobs (of 2005-2006) said they wanted to hear Samuel L Jackson should drop a couple of “Mother Fuckers” in there. The film makes hears and added some reshoots to get it an R rating and a…

It seems like common sense to not have to say this, but here goes anyway:

Every single person that had something to say about the original design needs to get their ass to a theater and see the movie. I can’t think of another time where a movie studio immediately listened to the audience and backtracked this publicly…

“I would be a better person if I tried to be more like him every day.” 

You’re thinking of *our* spaceships, inside of which everyone operates in free-fall. That’s the only reason they use suction - there’s no gravity (to speak of). Star Wars ships all have pretty fabulous artificial gravity, hence no need for suction toilets.

Thanks, and I appreciate your comment! 

As someone with privilege, I don’t actually notice these things until it’s pointed out on the internet. Thankfully, this time, the first comment I read about it was yours being a positive reaction to noticing it, rather than the inevitable horrible ones that you tend to run across on other sites.
I also didn’t notice…

I know this isn’t The Root, and doesn’t have much to do with adorable Yodlings, but can we talk about how wonderfully brown The Madalorian is? John Beasley (Omahaaaa), Pedro Pascal, Horatio Sanz, Carl Weathers, Omid Abtahi, Julia Jones, and Taika Waititi with Giancarlo Esposito and Ming-Na Wen soon to arrive.

I can’t…

Pascal’s delivery is so like Eastwood’s Man With No Name that I can’t stop looking at this show as a western.

There was also a pretty powerful group defending him. There are at least 3 factions.

Yoda and Yaddle got bu-say...

Please. PLEASE! Don’t let this be Yoda’s kid or something. 

There’s another question you guys missed - who hired IG-11?

I will never forget.

Hanks is right for the part, but it’s still going to be Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers.
