The Mandalorian (Star Wars Live Action Series)

The only thing I didn't love was how aesthetically similar the Krayt's lair was to the mudhorn cave. And Tatooine jawas with red eyes. That was weird.

But the Krayt going for the Tusken and ignoring the Bantha was hilarious, lol.

I gave the cave a pass because of how gorgeous the bright day light cinematography looked it really made the vibrant sand and rock textures come to life.

The sand people were borderline 3D lol

Hell yeah. Loved the faux IMAX fullscreen for the final battle as well. So Mando gets IMAX but not IW/EG, lol.

See baby yoda on the biggest screen possible lol

I'm glad they're keeping the goofy mechanic lady as a recurring character.

Yeah seeing her transports me back to late 70’s early 80’s. She would have fit perfectly on the original muppet show lol

Exactly! As ridiculous as she is she just fits, lol.

That opening scene, from the start to rolling out the title, that was exactly what I wanted to see from The Mandalorian.

What happened in the opening scene?

I'm kind of indifferent about the mechanic lady. She would have been perfect in The Star Wars Holiday Special.

This 100%

The Gamorrean vibro axe battle. (Again, so awesome vibro axes actually vibrate!!)

John Leguizamo played the one eyed dude at the start. This episode was the best thing I've seen from Star Wars since Rogue One. It was just amazing.

Those mining guild dudes seemed to recognize the armour...whether they were freaked out because it was a Mando or because they thought it was Fett we'll never know, because they dead.

That scene was great, most of them were just sitting there like ?well, this is it...?

Hence my muppet show comment lol

LOL. What a joke. We should stop typing her name.

I wish, no idea why she seems to be held to such a high level of importance here by so many people

BTW I laugh when Mando hit Cobb's jetpack and he flew away instantly. Nice easter egg too.

Yeah, that was a solid call back. I need to watch the entire episode again to catch all the nostalgic stuff...

Episode was great. Ending was how you do a cliff hanger!! So glad it's only a tease at the end of the 1st episode and not the end of the season episode.. Now that would've sucked..

And I'm always a fan of Timothy Olyphant. Hope we see The Marshal Again. He has the best speeder bike ever!! Curious to see what HT decides to pull from this episode.

I hope the Marshal is a given, with switch out portrait.

His pod racer engine bike is going to be a very cool 12 and 6 inch collectible.

Not from this episode, but .... while I have never been a fan of an unmasked Boba Fett, after all this time, I think a grizzled Temuera sculpt with that worn-out armor has potential.

Yes, Timothy Olyphant is awesome. A Cobb Vanth figure shot straight to the top of my wish list, but knowing HT we'll just get various versions of Mando & BY. Hopefully the fact that he's wearing Boba's armor (which they already have tooling for) means they might at least consider making him. Imagine he and Mando riding their speeders side by side in your display!

Same, that could be a great look.

I'm a fan of the actor, but to be honest I'm surprised at all the calls for a Vanth figure; he looked awkward and his costume was kinda goofy, what with the frumpy red blouse and all...

(Sure, I get what they were going for, but don't know that it translates to a $400.00 CAD action figure.)

That would make for a great figure.

I can't wait to see how Fett is going to fit into this. I'm really hoping for some kind of redemption arc where he needs to be worthy of the armor again and becomes an ally. Maybe years of isolation in the Dune Sea made him see things differently. Or he could just be a **** and try reclaiming his armor from Mando by force. He might see claiming the bounty on the child as his big return to notoriety.
