The Mandalorian: A Star Wars Series - UPDATE Season 4 Confirmed


The mega-hit Star Wars Disney+ series The Mandalorian returns next week and some fans might be a little confused when it does. Season two ended with Grogu leaving the Mandalorian to go train with Luke Skywalker. Season three will begin with Grogu already back by the Mandalorian's side. And while the connective tissue is out there and easily accessible, the show's creators have some less than encouraging thoughts on catching everyone up.

"For people who didn't see The Book Of Boba Fett, we're gonna have videos that catch people up on it on [Disney+]," Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau told Empire. "And there's plenty of user-generated content [on the internet] helping people get up to speed, which is a tool that I use when I watch a show after it's been off the air for a while. It's not just the show—it's the community that surrounds the show. I learned through my experiences with Marvel how sophisticated the audiences are, and [they] inform one another and are paying close attention."

Definitely not the most engaging season opener I've ever seen, hopefully it's not a sign of the quality to come this season.

I did notice that Dean Cundy was the director of photography for this episode, which is awesome (cinematographer for most all the classic John Carpenter films, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit [he won the Oscar for cinematography in this], Jurassic Park, Apollo 13, etc., etc.). Dude is approaching 80 and still putting in work.
 
Honestly they need to stop with the weekly episode thing. This episode would be fine if we could fire up the next one right after. They have to set up the season and all that which is fine, and even managed to mix in some action. When you only get like 35 minutes a week it is kind of tough.
 
I didn't know I had to watch Boba to see what happened before the 1st episode.

They also could have dropped 2 episodes. Second episode is supposed to be a lot better.

We needed more spectacle to distract from Favreaus mediocre writing.

Episode randomly trying to be Andor without realizing Andor has good writers. That was awful outside of the first 10 minutes.
