  1. A main part of the movie is around a pair of bangles that is a large source of power (of which Ms Marvel has one and the villain has the other). I think it's touched about in the movie, but the series goes a lot more in depth on how Ms Marvel acquired hers...if you find that interesting like I do. So there may be some things around her history and family that are quickly glossed over in the movie. ScreenCrush does a real nice recap of the entire series: I hadn't read the comics so I'm not sure how closely they follow her origin story there.
  2. Saw it today with my daughters. We all liked it, and I in a particular like it a more than the other recent MCU movies. Not sure if would have been confusing for those that haven't watched any of the corresponding Disney+ plus shows
  3. I'm really enjoying the show so far, can't wait for next week's episode. I saw someone that pointed out that he holds high lightsaber almost like a giant broadsword, as if there appears to be some "weight" to it. This is also reflected in the power in the strikes he uses against Ahsoka prior to her heading over the cliff. So his fighting form is reflected accordingly. I'm choosing to go with this theory.
  4. Maybe they'll add the rest if enough people watch on these channels? Only showing first 2 episodes so far
  5. Just watched the final episode. Funny how of all the shows I was looking forward to on D+, this was probably at or toward the bottom of the list (but still wanted to see). But has turned out to be my favorite one so far. It's just great
  6. Episode 10 is another just fantastic episode. This series has become my favorite of the D+ Star Wars shows...and there's not even any lightsabers
  7. Why did the A-10s not just fly Frodo to Mordor? /s
  8. This show is fantastic. Not sure how accurate or trustworthy this is, but there's a bunch of numbers! Didn't Ms Marvel have something similar (highest reviewed but less watched)? 'Andor' is the best 'Star Wars' show since 'The Mandalorian' — but the least popular (msn.com)
  9. I think replay on ESPN2 tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. central (I think). *Edit*: My cable guide doesn't show it yet, but it does show it when searching the programming. And it will be on ESPN+ https://www.espn.com/watch/schedule/_/type/upcoming/categoryId/119cfa41-71d4-39bf-a790-6273a52b0259/startDate/20221018
  10. I liked the first Captain Marvel, in particular the themes around standing back up after being knocked down (in life, etc). Also enjoyed watching Ms. Marvel with my daughter, so very much looking forward to this sequel.
  11. Such a classic voice. AI-assisted technology is getting so accurate, I wonder if he'll still receive some payment if they use his voice/recordings as the basis to feed its algorithms on future shows.
  12. I finally remembered where I had seen them before, on the show "Royal Pains" on USA Network (from like 12 years ago). As a side note, I loved those "Blue Sky" era shows on USA - Monk, Psych, Royal Pains, Burn Notice. I really wish networks still made shows like that. Seems like everything now has to be so edgy or gritty, but maybe I'm just not finding them (or I'm too old now :) )
  13. Watched this with my wife and teen daughter. We all liked it! (I'll always like a show more when we can enjoy it together). Looking forward to the next episode.
  14. Grades in. No way for me to win, but it was educational and enjoyable as always
  15. I've only watched the last few episodes once so far, so my details may be slightly off. However I do think that it doesn't stray so far from the OT (from a certain point of view). Some of these thoughts may be tenuous, but that's what I'm choosing to believe :) He never saw Reva ignite the lightsaber. He just knew he was running away from some threat (possibly Tuskan Raiders), slipped and got knocked out, and woke back up at home But she did remember him, one of her first lines to Luke in ANH is "Ben Kenobi, where is he?!" I think Obi-Wan's line at the end of this show about keeping their connection secret to protect themselves leads to the wording of her "you're my only hope" message she stored in R2. Agree with this, my thought was he was just so desperate by that point he wanted to do something. I guess it it was done so that the next point below can take place - leading to Reva's 'redemption'. I think it was mentioned in an early episode that she saw the holocron's in the Jedi Temple...which could include the one Obi-Wan saw (in Ep III) with the emperor calling Anakin Lord Vader. Reva figured out the connection with Bail and Obi-Wan which is why she went after Leia. Reva then figured out about Luke due to Bail's dumb message and her knowledge that Anakin is Vader. I believe that's why they show Palpatine basically 'leashing' him at the end of this episode Curious which abilities? I know some folks didn't like that she fixed the ship in Ep 5, but she wasn't able to do that until her pet droid pointed out what actually was broken. Prior to that, she was floundering. I think only one person has figured that out, and she was there when he killed her youngling friends, saw the holocrons at the Jedi temple, saw Bail's ill-timed message. Vader only lost to his old master, whom he had never defeated. He easily handled Reva, toying with her without even using his lightsaber
  16. A great finale, and I loved this series. I thought it did a good job of filling in some of the perceived disconnects between the prequels and Episode IV, and I am really hoping for a season two. Really enjoyed Ewan McGregor's acting (and others) this episode, and his dialogue with Darth and Leia was heartbreaking and touching. More, please
  17. I am really enjoying this series so far. Ep III was intense and great! John Williams is scoring the series, and it does seem the music cues are more muted or partial to what we'll eventually hear in A New Hope. Maybe we'll get the full orchestra in the last episode...
  18. I'd like to watch this one... Edit: as long as they don't invent some fake controversy...since Weird Al is a national treasure and must be protected
