[Star Wars] God, I love The Mandolorian.
Shards-giving
Episode 5 and I'm pretty sure this is the most he's spoken the entire show.
Shards-giving
It's fun and I don't need to pay too much attention to the plot, usually.
Shards-giving
Which is good for after work.
Shards-giving
(Also, only half an hour.)
ʜᴀᴜɴᴛᴇᴅ ᴄʀɪᴍsᴏɴ
I'm still shocked by how good it is. I really hope the quality is as high in season 2.
Shards-giving
Also, I kinda love him adopting this stupid newbie assassin.

...you're only like 10 minutes in, aren't you
ʜᴀᴜɴᴛᴇᴅ ᴄʀɪᴍsᴏɴ
Shards-giving
Bit more than that. They've found Ming-Na Wen now.
Shards-giving
Oh, there we go. He's an idiot.
ʜᴀᴜɴᴛᴇᴅ ᴄʀɪᴍsᴏɴ
I love Ming-Na's character and, yes, that guy is an idiot.
Shards-giving
Not enough of an idiot to let her go, but an idiot.
Shards-giving
And he finds out what happens to idiots with Mandolorians.
Platinum
They become Mandalore?
Shards-giving
OUT.
Shards-giving
Only problem was the end of that episode was pretty dark. I'll have to rewatch on my laptop at some point.
6LilacMimeLions
i started out thinking ep 6 sucked but halfway through it gets awesome
6LilacMimeLions
and 7 & 8 are great
6LilacMimeLions
(and not just because my girl cara's back)
Shards-giving
We'll see those soon, I'm sure.
Shards-giving
We're slow as hell watching.
kaylin
such a good show
kaylin
I watched it and I was like "ah, this is how I get into the Star Wars fandom, I see it now"
6LilacMimeLions
mandalorian is some of the best content the franchise has ever produced
6LilacMimeLions
trust me, i've been here since the early 90s
Platinum
hard agree
Platinum
I almost flinch at the idea of using it as an entry point 'cause it's hard to find stuff that's as good
kaylin
Oh, I've been shown the movies by my Star Wars fandom friends, read some books, and even played in a couple different tabletop games
kaylin
it was more that Star Wars was "their fandom that I also participate in occasionally when invited" verses "this is my fandom now and I am Involved"
kaylin
I knew enough about Mando's to be able to tell other people about the conflict between the beskar and the "if you find an orphan you like, you adopt them" part of the code
