Bosco685 Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 18 hours ago, the blob said: But I'll say I find it believable. Former orphan just cannot let a child be harmed even if ruthless with adults. A little surprised the mandelorian gang backs him up without knowing his moral dilemma. They also made it unclear whether he is actually a mandelorian or just adopted into it. I think this was done purposely to maintain some mystery. Otherwise, they reveal too much of his backstory too soon and spoil the atmosphere of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhamlau Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I am surprised, poorly done episode that actually was sorta bad. Poor directing and acting, reminded me of a bad copy of the magnificent 7. Spoiler 1. “Mando” spoke way to much completely ruins the character. 2. Of course they would be found, hundreds of bounty hunters have tracking beacons that work anywhere in the galaxy it seems. Why would he assume he can leave him there?!? 3. What type of bandits have an AT-ST?!? Heck assuming they did...why is this all they are doing with it? The villagers said they were poor and didn’t seem to get much for their shrimp harvest, why waste time on them if you have that level of fire power? That’s like bringing a Tank to rob a lemonade stand. 4. Why not aim the chin guns at the defensive line? Why blow up stick huts?! That tank should have decimated them in 10 seconds. 5. He didn’t think to bring his space fighter into the mix? I’m sure it has some guns, why not use it/them to fight back?! Hoping that was just an aberration and that next weeks is back on track.

fantastic_four Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Definitely the weakest so far...it's the first I haven't felt compelled to re-watch. I noticed Gina Carano really packed on some pounds between when she retired from fighting and appeared in Deadpool, but am I overreacting or did she jump up another size or two in this show? She's definitely got a large bone structure and should probably be about 150 or so most of the time which is 10 to 15 pounds heavier than most 5' 8" women would be, and she fought at a lean 140 to 145 for her frame. But she looked about 160 in Deadpool, and now she looks to be 170 to 180. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were just seeing more of her arms in The Mandalorian, which were huge for a woman. That really stood out to me in the episode how large she is, and believable she could go toe-to-toe with him.

Hopefully the next episode will get things back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenosmilus Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 The episodes remind me of the bad (but watchable) syndicated Scifi series like StarGate SG1 and StarGate Atlantis but with a much better budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcjames Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) So is it just me or does The Mandalorian theme sound a little bit like from the Rocky soundtrack (maybe it's just seeing Apollo Greef on-screen gives me the subconscious association). Have a listen to a bit of The Mandalorian Theme here... and then give a listen to "Going The Distance" for a minute or so. Similarities?

valiantman Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I haven't paid any attention to the actors, so I had been assuming that the Mandalorian blacksmith was Gina Carano's character. Then, seeing her without armor in the 4th episode, I assumed the Mandalorian would eventually find out she was the blacksmith and that yes, she does take off her helmet, etc. Since there's a different actress playing the blacksmith, I'm actually a little disappointed.

Rip Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) Spoiler Tatooine! Lots of great call backs. Mos Eisley, Sandpeople, Pit Droids, Cantina, a Dewback, Star Wars canyon shot, plus much more. I liked the story better than last week. Solid twist. But didn't like that he left Baby Yoda alone for so long. I think its either Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) or Greef Karga at the end, but not sure. I think most will LOVE the location of this one. I liked it better than episode 4, but less than the first 3. Next week its Bill Burr. Edited December 6, 2019 by Rip bentbryan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goransson did the soundtrack for CREED, so he has done Rocky music before. jcjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted December 7, 2019 Author Share Posted December 7, 2019 Episode 5 was okay. Better than 4 for sure. Not as solid as 1 through 3. Callaway29, bentbryan and Hollywood1892 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
