    With The Mandalorian premiering tomorrow we would like to alert everyone that spoilers for the show are NOT ALLOWED anywhere in New Films. Anyone posting spoilers for the show will have their posts edited and their accounts banned for at least 24 hours. You may use the New Canon Materials thread to post previews of episodes, updates on the show, general news about the show and official episode descriptions. All in-depth discussions of the show need to go in our SWTV section.

    This zero spoilers policy will be in effect for New Films until after the final episode premieres on December 27th, 2019. After that date you may discuss the show as long as it relates to the topic of the thread but you must use SPOILER TAGS. The use of spoiler tags will be mandatory until one month after it's March 31st premiere. Just keep in mind that with this staggered release schedule we won't all be able to see the show at the same time so please be thoughtful of your fellow users and don't spoil the show for them.


    We also would like to remind everyone that this site has a zero tolerance policy towards piracy. Anyone discussing pirated episodes or where to watch pirated episodes will have their posts edited and their accounts banned for at least 24 hours.

    Modding is a complicated profession. Don't make it anymore complicated. Or else...

    What's the official view on using things like VPN to view episodes?

    I'm curious in a more academic sense, as I don't have the tech skills to actually use it, but even if your location is masked Disney+ still requires a payment and if it's not that fussy about it, it'd be just about permitted?

    We're in this strange new world.

    I'm really not sure what Disney's official policy on using VPNs are. I know it's possible to do so but whether or not the Mouse is going to send snipers to your house for using one I have no idea. :p

    On our end I would say just don't advertise that you're using a VPN and you'll be fine.

    Had to torrent The Mandalorian because Disney+ seems to be having issues this morning, but I did subscribe to the service so I figured what the heck.

    There are parts of this show that are a serious delight! That is all I will say :)

    Just reading Alphabet Squadron at the moment and I love how page 86 of that novel ties in directly with the main storyline / narrative of the Battlefront 2 computer game. And the book also ties in with comics too.

    Brilliant LFL, one cohesive layered storyline that while it focuses on a specific event over here, it also mentions and links together with storylines over there. Not just a mish mash of new stories focusing on a specific event.

    Because the galaxy is a much bigger place than just the events that surround the Skywalkers and their immediate associations.

    Love your work Lucasfilm - just dont make Han a drunk.

    Star Wars Resistance (I don't watch the show, but if you care about any possible premise tie-ins to SW:TROS):

    FIRST ORDER RAIDERS
    An elite new class of stormtrooper, the First Order Raiders are highly skilled hunters of a very specific variety, seeking to obtain ancient Sith relics for their commander, Supreme Leader Kylo Ren.

    https://www.starwars.com/databank/first-order-raiders

    MIKA GREY
    Fearless and inventive, Mika Grey is a rugged, old treasure hunter of sorts whose aim is less about riches and more about keeping destructive and powerful artifacts out of the hands of the First Order's Supreme Leader Kylo Ren. After one particular two-and-a-half-year search, the planet-hopping archaeologist discovers an ancient Sith relic that holds untold, life-ending power at its core, but she destroys it to shake the First Order operatives on her tail. This may be why she prefers to work alone.

    https://www.starwars.com/databank/mika-grey

    * Kylo Ren official SW: TROS character description: "As Supreme Leader of the First Order, Kylo Ren wields more power than ever before. Nevertheless, Ren continues to search for secrets of the Force from the depths of the dark side."

In this new epic chapter in the Darth Vader saga, the dark lord grapples with Luke’s unthinkable refusal and embarks on a bloody mission of rage-filled revenge against everything and everyone who had a hand in hiding and corrupting his only son. But even as he uncovers the secrets of Luke’s origins, Vader must face shocking new challenges from his own dark past.

    I hear that Resistance actually improves significantly in Season 2.
