You could have put a hybrid of Gieguld/Guiness/Olivier into those 2 movies and they wouldn't have come out any better.

He's miles better in Sith where at least some of the dialogue is slightly natural.

Anyone catch the Office Space reference in the latest Mandalorian episode? Gave me a chuckle.

Holy fan service, Batman! God DAMN, that was magnificent TV. John Favreau needs to be given control of all Star Wars assets from here on.

That's the way to do a Star Wars story. What sequel trilogy? The last 2 films were a complete dumpster fire.

It was great, but I do admit a twinge of disappointment. I was kind of hoping this would go a different direction. This season was 100% fan service which will make amends with most fans I would think. They're taking this whole thing into the Marvel Universe direction with the sheer number of shows they have on tap now. Did everyone catch the after credits scene a la every Marvel Universe film?

Caught the post-credits scene purely as I was i. The kitchen and hadn’t exited the show. Very interesting!

Apart from the addition to the suite of shows that that confirmed, has there been a third season of Mando confirmed?

They’re well into filming 3 and possibly 4. They’ve got a bucket full of mandalorians now so I suppose that’s where the season is heading, though of the bunch I only care about Pedro Pascal’s character. I would imagine people who are fans of all of the media will prefer the other mandos.
