ep 5..another good episode

but GAry.. oh Gary, you are so delusional by your all consuming hate of disney that you have condemned yourself to always look for the bad-in your perception, in everything

one example from your "review" of ep 5

you say that the Mandalorian goes to Mos Eisley spaceport "not known for bounty hunters or bad actors" words to that effect. alluding to the fact that Mando is on the run so why we he go there?

well, Gary oh Gary, Mos Eisley is well known for its being a hot bed of illegal activity and full of undesirables

did you never see this scene Gary oh Gary?



You have Gary all wrong, dude. But that is neither here nor there. I did not really like Episode 5. I can see a distinct difference between the first 4 episodes written by Favreau vs this one written by Filoni, and I just did not like it as much. The female bounty hunter was a wasted storyline, and the guy who was playing like he wanted to join the Guild but then betrayed Mando was miscast. I liked the female mechanic, and seeing the pop droids, but the story itself left me flat.

Quarter Black Garrett from the Louder with Crowder show is on a Fandom Menace live feed with Gary Nerdrotic. Maybe the Fandom Menace does lean a little Republican?


I agree with you, the Fandom Menace is definitely more centrist and right leaning. The SJWs are necessarily left leaning, as are the feminists and diversity police. I have yet to come across anyone in the Fandom Menace who is also a lefty. But perhaps that is because I lean right.

yeah,its pretty clear you and dickbeard gary,agree on everything

dont think the female bounty hunter storyline is done

why do you look at everything as if you are a member of the production crew? you're not, why dont you just watch them (or dont watch) as a viewer?

-------------------
and again, this leaning on doom and gloom Youtubers , every show sucks bit for thread content is getting old, one reason a few ppl barely come here any longer

those doomcockers are wrong about so much, they presume so much and it is often clear that they barely watched an episode or know the material (ref= gary and his 'lord of the rings is going to suck so bad' and he didn't even read what the premise and setting of the show will be on)

they pop out videos as quick as they can, no matter what (proof is gary himself saying he is making the vid while sick) as if everyone is going to wither away and end it all if they dont get their dumbass videos up.

and out of curiosity, i watched a bit of a few livecasts...they only answer the questions of people who pay!! how is that 'fandom"? it is not, it is making money talking about another person's/companies work. being in it for the money is what disney does, and these 'fandom' dicks are doing the same

LOL, how is it you think I look at everything like I was a member of the production crew? Why is it you don't seem to realize that Star Wars is no longer the thing it was when it's creator was in charge of it? Why do you continue as though George Lucas wasn't betrayed by Kathleen Kennedy and that the Disney trilogy is what George Lucas wanted? Why do you not know that the greater Star Wars fandom is in an uproar over the Disney movies?

Then create some new threads? Star Wars DOES suck now. Do you want me to gush over Disney's crap just because you don't like the criticism? Sorry, I am just not like that. I don't like Disney Star Wars. I do like the Mandalorian and I think I am going to like the Obi-Wan series. But their trilogy sucks so far, and I have no reason to be optimistic about TROS. I don't get fans who just swallow what is fed to them without having their own opinions about them. I also don't have a problem with them liking Disney Star Wars.

Do you engage them on Twitter? I do. And what questions would you be asking them? I agree, they seem to be in it for money and views, but then again, why be a YouTube content creator if you can't monetize your work? This site was never meant to generate revenue. I even removed the Google ads I had on here. GateFans remains online because I choose to continue paying for it, not because I need it. But I am going to become one of those YouTubers within the year, creating content and monetizing it like they are doing. It won't be part of this place. Forums don't seem to be a preferred platform for discussion anymore.

some good background on Mandalorians-- planet, people, culture as well as The Mandalore- the leader of all Mandalorians

i mentioned this earlier, the Mandalorians in this show- it is pretty apparent none are native Mandalorians, but those who have been adopted into the culture.

but the fact they are homeless and basically outlaws from Mandalorian mainstream indicates they may be a smaller group of the larger losing side in the civil war that took place to oust the Empire from Mandalore and Concord Dawn

real Mandalorians can remove their helmets and armour without repercussion

reminding us that Jango Fett was excommunicated from Mandalorian culture and why Boba is not a Mandalorian

due to his being a clone and never had been accepted or trained into Mando warrior culture

with this, and knowing the penchant of Filoni and Favreau for incorporating elements of SW'S Legends (fan fiction) into their works, making the stuff canon. In LEGENDS there are many mercenaries and bounty hunters who wear mandalorian armor but are not mandalorian -genetically or via cultural assimilation

they just got the armor and wear it has a form of intimidation, impression making...a lot like stolen valor in our reality

so we could see some of these show up in this series at some point. some are speculating the Boba will appear. Some are even guessing that the boots and cape we saw at the end of EP5 of The Mando are those of Boba as his last known location was Tattoine (though apparently NOT in the Sarlaccs digestive system)

Episode IX won't really be competition for anything. :) Twitter is already chock full of stuff from those press people who went to the premiere event yesterday. There is a press embargo until the 18th at 3:00am, but even shills like Scott Mendelson are saying it's a bad movie. Possibly, the negative impact for fandom could be worse than The Last Jedi.

exactly what i said..they could have just left MANDALORIAN right where it was, but i dont mind wednesday..shorter wait

I still love the Mandalorian show. :) But they almost can't get past Baby Yoda (The Child now). They are making the show about this macho Mando protecting the lil baby Yoda and it is a heartwarming concept. But I don't think it's where Favreau and Filoni want to keep the show focused. They either need to give us some backstory on the baby or tell us why it is so important and why there is such a bounty on it. The original bounty hunters wanted to kill it, so why is that? Once it was delivered to the other bad dudes, they wanted to study it.

I really hope the failure of the "mystery box" thing that JJ has brought into things at Disney is dumped. We do not need mysteries to last this long.

It may be important to note that The Mandalorian while a Disney product (which is why you have Baby Yoda and why it is not as rough edged or dark as some may desire) is not a Bad robot product. Jon Favreau is in charge and he has legitimate bona fides (like the original Iron Man) that show he knows how to do this stuff properly.

i think the reason why 'baby yoda' IS a baby is yet to be revealed. i mean, an adult force sensitive Yoda-species under control of anyone would go against canon ( no one could capture and hold Yoda)

ch 7 had a pretty impressive body count--to include the death (or apparent) of a certain 'loveable' character and teh abduction of another

I think at least 8 bodies hit the floor

"desire"? Geez Joe, how much blood and gore you want :biggrin:

Not til the spring YJ02?

Lol Its like 1989 all over again....where we had to wait months for a release.

yup, as I guessed--

EU fuckery

from-- https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/why-is-it-taking-disney-so-long-to-arrive-in-europe.html/
Disney has to include 30% European Union sanctioned content

Apple TV+ is mostly American-produced shows, and Disney+ will be as about as American as it gets. Recent European Union rules say 30 percent of any streaming content there has to be produced or acquired in Europe.

Disney+ now has to wait to debut in Europe to figure out how they’ll capitulate to these rules. There’s every indication they’ll have to produce some content there, which would make Disney+ differ from what American audiences see when traveling overseas.

Imperial warlord perfectly played!

almost as if the directors just told Giancarlo Esposito ---"i just want you to do what you did when you played the part of Gus Fring(breaking bad/better call saul). same evil, just in a SW's setting"

awesome actor in a great show, great chapter 8--and he has a very interesting 'souvenir'
