    I’d like to see them shed some of this because although lots of stories are game like, mostly because games are everywhere now and games are modeled to replicate what we love about stories, I just feel that you can only get away with it being video game esque for so long before people begin to kinda check out as it feels artifice. It’s worked for the most part up to this point, but it can very swiftly become a gimmick and a crutch, a narrative device. I don’t look back on the OT films and think oh yeah, it was one big video game. The OT was extremely cinematic. It’s worked up to this point but my hope is with Mandalore being the center of the story going forward that we have much less fetch quest episodes and more long form story development.
    Well put. Which is why his actions against his nephew in that abomination of a movie make less and less sense as time goes on. You basically have to ignore Luke’s characterization up to that point in order for it to make any sense at all. Hamill really wasn’t off when he said it was like playing a completely different character. He literally couldn’t bring any Luke to the role because he honestly wasn’t playing Luke. Really a strange position to be in as an actor I’d imagine.

    So Dave's "approval stamp" has changed from "Plo Kool" to Bo-Katan now? Just trying to keep up here.

    Man, Rosario Dawson has got to be one of the most attractive people in show business. And I’m not just talking about looks, in case that’s not clear. Everything about her is great. Her energy, her acting, her genuine interest. What a perfect person to play this role.

    Saw her in The Rundown, forgetting MB2 which was out before. She is building up quite the resume doing 3 to 4 films a year.

    At 4.02 into that Ahsoka Tano Behind The Scenes;

    Dave Filoni "I don't like bringing a character back unless there's some value in it....."

    Not fan service - its "interconnectivity".

    Ahsoka holds value in what has happened previously in the story regarding attachment / Jedi's / Jedi's Training / etc and she imparts that wisdom and interconnectivity in this story arc involving Din and Grogu. There is a reason why she features in that Chapter of The Mandalorian and it holds "value" as to her past experiences and what she says.

    Loved the season 2 final - aka chapter 16.
    How about the parallels between season 1’s flash backs to din as a child and the super battle droids and don having to protect Grogu from the dark troopers.

    I know I might get ripped for this but anyone else find it strange that Kathleen Kennedy did not appear anywhere in the latest Disney Gallery? She wasn’t even mentioned.

    Must be on the outs with Disney.

    I'd say that it's not exactly a good sign for KK if she appears to have the same significance as Ludwig Goransson, but then I remembered that LG is probably dozens of times more important to the Mandalorian's success.

    She could’ve had a 10 second part and the same people would’ve posted “don’t you think it’s weird...”.

    No we don’t. She’s busy running all of LFL. She doesn’t need to make an appearance in everything for PR purposes.

    The exact same people were asking the same question after months of “radio silence” after Solo like that was some big hint that she was on the outs with Disney.

    It’s so tiring. Can’t we just have nice things without the usual conspiracy theories? For once?

    Yes @AndrewPascoe your instincts were right.

    I don't think it means anything. In or out in the future...KK may have been busy with other people setting up those 10 or 11 SW shows we heard about as well as whatever else she's involved in. I expect she had a holiday too at some point this year.

    she doesn’t have a whole lot to do, if anything, with the Mandalorian.
    Wait Iger is the President of Lucasfilm???

    Kathleen Kennedy is Executive Producer of the Mandalorian, and she hired Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni to make it. I’d say she has a whole heck of a lot to do with it. Where is your evidence that she may have nothing to do with it? A couple citations from legitimate sources, maybe?

    Why was there nothing on Luke’s cameo in that behind the scenes feature? Very dissappointed.

    Many of your posts have a pattern: unsubstantiated conspiracy theories. Cassian Andor show being cancelled, Kennedy on the outs, ad infinitum. All based on dubious sources and dubious speculation, and likely driven by your desire for the things you report on to be true. It's deliberate misinformation, and you know it.
