Heaven forbid people want their Star Wars to be like... er... Star Wars.

Huh. I’ve found most of the series to be pretty meh, with the exception of this episode and episode 2. (Last episode was close, but I spent the whole time facepalming and feeling like the acting was from a B-list genre show... “Oh my, these new bad guy characters are all SO extreme and edgy with goofy quirks!”)

Presumably, between Rebels and this show, the Empire pulled a genocide on Mandalore, and all that are left are scattered tribes, who have adopted some new customs (something like, “we lost face when we lost our planet, and now we may never show our face again”), and may even be relying on adopting foundlings for the…

Who says the 7K know anything about the video? The senator flat out says that he's using them.

“It’s been brought to my attention that “The Child” is a Yoda, but couldn’t be the Yoda reincarnated, as I speculated at the end of my recap for the first episode. According to the bounty on its head, “The Child” has been alive for 50 years, and The Mandalorian takes place five years after the events of The Return Of…

That was the best season of AHS in years. It was total fluff and there was nothing to it, but at least it was fun the whole way through.

I wondered if the whole thing might be a Jewish-style soul refinement going on, but we’ve seen that Bad Place demons seems to believe in punishing humans even without humans around to be ‘acting’ for...

The “hieroglyphics” are at least partly alchemical symbols. The ‘G’ is maybe a stylized Mercury/Quicksilver, and the Q-looking ‘N’s are definitely Manure.

Yeah, I had totally and completely forgotten about this and was surprised that I had even the vaguest memory of what the headline was about...
“Oh yeah, that WAS a thing...”

Is it just me, or is the REAL miracle here the bloodless childbirth?

I’d assume he was the closest to an A-lister among the former cast, so they didn’t bother because the current salaries he commands are too much, but they can afford some of the lower paid/more desperate but not TOO desperate *cough*Screech**cough* former cast...

I grew up in a very rural area. I didn’t find it the least bit frightening, only frustrating and annoying.
“Those noises are just deer!”
“If you’re lost, just follow the stupid stream! It’ll lead to civilization eventually, even if just back to the road!”
lol

But is there a bundle WITHOUT ESPN for the more traditional of geeks and nerds?

That’s Baloo, not Kit.

I’m only reading these as I watch the episodes, but has anyone pointed out that Erik Gelden was Mind-Wave in the comics? Other than “mental powers,” they don’t seem to have anything in common, though...

Oooh... With a Christmas season, they could fill it full of Gremlins references!

And here I thought we Gen Xers were the target audience, child stars or not. We were that age at the time, so we can identify with the kid actors, with the bonus of being adults and thus able to identify with the adult characters.

Probably just as well that he was just parroting what Lucas had said, while feeling hurt, which makes you more likely to say hurtful things you otherwise wouldn't...

Try watching some episodes of Moonlighting. The casual sexism will make your head spin.

I’ve never understood why people wouldn’t want a cyberpunk film of 2014 to reflect technology concerns and styles of the 20teens the way a cyberpunk film reflected the technology concerns and styles of the 80s...
