Mando is amazing...the first two episodes of season 2 are both outstanding. It's just so well done, best thing on tv in years.

My wife and I talked another couple we know into watching it. We lent them our Disney + log in just so they could watch it. They are very intellectual couple who had never seen ANYTHING Star Wars related. Mandalorian was just so good we knew it would get them into Star Wars.

After Season 1 they went back and watch every single Star Wars thing produced in chronological order according to the Time Line. They finished all of that between season 1 and season 2 and them and their kids are now huge fans. They actually called my wife last week to thank them for introducing them to the entire franchise and helping them to understand how all things Star Wars had impacted science, technology, and popular culture.

I'm was one of those kids who the first movie they saw that wasn't a cartoon in the theater was the original Star Wars...been hooked every since. We had our immediate family parties at Christmas time around the release of the new trilogy...which, btw, isn't nearly as good as The Mandolorian. This is how Star Wars was meant to be done...in a series.

My brother got me into our local theatre in Clinton to see the first movie. Was hooked. My wife has had vague knowledge and had watched some of the movies. She didn't watch season 1 until about a month ago. Ended up binging it and is now awaiting each episode of season 2 with my sons and I.

That was alot of fun. Mandalorian is single handidly saving the star wars universe. Its not only adding context to the sequels, but it is also building the lore and universe for other tv series/movies/single stories. Its not perfect and its tropey, but it is perfect timing for star wars at this moment.

BTW Pedro Pascal is already trained in the spear/staff from his time as "The Red Viper" from game of thrones. I'm expecting a masterful performance when he fights the dark saber weilding moff gideon

he's also trained to get his skull crushed if he talks too much from the same.

I agree with my son on this:

I didn't like the face swap for Luke. Wish they had gone with Sebastian Stan.

I think if they were to make an after return of the jedi TV series or movie for Luke, that they would definitely cast him as a real person. But for this one scene I didn't really mind it since we finally got to see Luke being a jedi master.
