I think the Cone Wars era stuff is featured in flashback scenes. In one of the trailers we see a little boy, who I think will eventually be "the Mandalorian". You also hear Werner Herzog say it is a shame "your people suffered", perhaps talking to the Mandalorian about what happened when he was just a boy.
Anyway, I am super excited for this series. Just one more night's sleep and a day's work and then it's here! Woohoo!
And you were exactly right, Mr. Black! No CIS units after the OT. I think many OT fans would be upset about that anyway.
They got me there! But I'm sure "Darth Rey" is also just a vision/fear to trigger/trap fans in the trailer of Episode IX.
Well, the general echo on Facebook and YouTube is very postive! So I hope you're alson happy with the premiere of this series? I'm super happy that Disney+ is available in the Netherlands already! I tried to stream it online, but I can obviously find shady pages only, that don't even work. I might have to come visit you, soon! I will bring popcorn for the next epsiodes of course
jk But I heard from people in the UK who watched it already, but they didn't say how...
What are your thoughts on The Mandalorian? I hope you caught some sleep yesterday and could focus on work a little.
This show is badass. I watched the first episode. It has everything we have been looking for in Star Wars since 2015.
It's a blessing to hear that, RC! I like the fact that Bounty Hunters receive more attention now. The scene on the bridge in ESB is way too short anyway and Boba Fett didn't hit anyone on screen before he falls in the pit. By the way I think it's very likely that Boba Fett will appear in the TV series! I think Disney will bring him back. He's such an excellent villain and too good to let him die in the desert. And I find it plausible that he could escape the Sarlacc.
Thanks for sharing your first impression!
