lol Obi Wan was so shite. Come on.

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-26-2022 05:50 PM

That's like saying you liked Full House better than The Wire lol

I feel like its much easier to elaborate and juxtapose on negatives.

Ol Dirty Dastard 11-26-2022 10:14 PM

lol that says a lot about you, Fignuts.

Fignuts 11-26-2022 11:09 PM

Well I don't see you elaborating either, mister sunshine and rainbows.

I think expecting everyone else to do the work says a lot about you, and I suggest you let that marinate.

The thing is Dale, until fairly recently to me all Star Wars was shite so I have no real axe to grind.
I’m the one person who can just enjoy the good and ignore the bad because I’d just as happily be watching something else.

I just want to see cool shit, I am more likely to find that outside of Star Wars than inside of it.

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 09:20 AM

Andor is the laziest show title ever too. Andor should fuck off to Endor and get eaten by the little hairy bastards that live there

Destor 11-27-2022 09:28 AM

I watched 2 eps of Andor and didnt go back for a 3rd. Im told ep 3 is where it gets good but i feel like if id had watched 3 id hear ep 4 is where it gets good

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 09:38 AM

I’ve seen the first four and episode 3 was warming up but episode four felt like the middle stage of a long wank.

Destor 11-27-2022 09:43 AM

Im sure ill give it another go. Got way too many other things to do right now. It wasnt bad it just wasnt engaging.

Lock Jaw 11-27-2022 10:39 AM

Episodes 1 and 2 and 4 and 5 are a bit slow and weird cause of the 3 episode story arc structure.

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 10:53 AM

Maybe they should have built more attractive arcs. Episode 3 was the best so far because of the metal ball ceiling shenanigans but they could have put more into it.
Diego Luna sort of sucks balls so it’s hard to take him seriously. So glad they never made that Scarface adaptation with him in it…

Lock Jaw 11-27-2022 11:09 AM

They definitely could have structured it better. The 3 episode arc from 8-10 is great, and also elements from the first two arcs start getting more integrated and retroactively gets you to like them more.... but thinking back on it now it is like "yeah, those were some slow ass episodes"

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 11:35 AM

Too much fannying around in the woods

Fignuts 11-27-2022 01:20 PM

If theres one thing I can't get enough of, its fannying.

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 05:13 PM

Watching Andor again.
It’s pretty impressive that Alex Lawther agreed to do this. He’s one of the best British actors out there and this is not his usual fare.

Seanny One Ball 11-27-2022 05:14 PM

Getting Doc Brown was good but no way was that difficult. I feel like Alex Lawther is a proper actor and getting him in a series like this is huge.

Seanny One Ball 11-28-2022 11:07 AM

I stuck the Star Wars Holiday Special on for a laugh but I’m half an hour in and it isn’t funny at all…it’s creepy and weird.
Art Carney is chewing scenery but with false teeth.

Terrible.

Ol Dirty Dastard 12-02-2022 08:19 AM

I'm surprised you didn't like the Holiday Special given your love for Kenobi.

Fignuts 12-02-2022 09:47 AM

Is that the one where Luke looks like a drag queen?

I thought the series was great. It's a series that needs a definite rewatch to really absorb everything in all at once imo. I think it lacks the ratings from the majority of star wars fans that think you need lightsabers all over the place. I do think as we venture into next season we could see some Vader interaction, with at least, a Palpatine cameo.

Lock Jaw 03-01-2023 07:02 PM

Glad to have Mandalorian back

SPOILER: show
I loved the design of Pirate King Swamp Thing. Definitely not seen the last of that guy.

Also, nice @ the purrgil tease in hyperspace

Makes me wonder what kind of other tease we will get based on when and where the purrgil first appeared and how heavily they featured woth Ezra and Thrawn. I could easily see Mando crossing paths with Ezra at some point and we have no idea they did until later.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-03-2023 01:27 PM

It was nice seeing old friends which is the strength of the show.

Seanny One Ball 03-03-2023 02:18 PM

I’m excited to see it. Best Star Wars thing ever.

Seanny One Ball 03-03-2023 02:19 PM

Pedro Pascal is getting less than the friends cast did twenty years ago

Different Era. No online streaming. They were getting like 30 million views for first run. Advertisers were screaming for time.

That makes a huge difference vs today.

Destor 03-04-2023 10:58 PM

Friends aired for 22 million viewers as a 3 cam 22min sitcom with ad breaks. There's way way way more money in that. Its basically a stage play. The only cost is the cast and the set design... of which there were like 3 sets for the whole run. And with the quality of the show they were def saving by having hamsters write the scripts.

Destor 03-04-2023 11:01 PM

Meanwhile Mando has no ad breaks. Runs roughly an hour. Has cgi out the ass. Huge set and production costs. Location expenses. Plus the sub revenue has to be dispersed across all projects.

Destor 03-04-2023 11:02 PM

There is way more money to pay Lisa Cudrow or whatever than Pascal

Destor 03-04-2023 11:03 PM

All the while disney is losing millions...bad time to ask for a raise

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-05-2023 07:23 AM

Plus there are about 15 other people they also have to pay to be in that Mando costume.

Fignuts 03-05-2023 11:33 AM

Should do a Friends/Mandalorian crossover episode.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-05-2023 12:13 PM

Can Chandler get shot? Or maybe his hand sliced off by a lightsaber.

McLegend 03-05-2023 04:09 PM

Episode where Grogu refuses to share his food with Joey.

Then for years to come we have the quote “Grogu doesn’t share food!”

Everyone will find it hilarious

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-05-2023 06:00 PM

Ross unwittingly gets pulled into a life-threatening mission with Mando.

Phoebe and Grogu get high on spice together by accident. They write a hit song together called stinky Bantha.

Lengua 03-06-2023 08:54 AM

Instead of a monster of the week bad guy Joey hooks up with a different female alien starting with a twi'lek. Shit writes itself.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-09-2023 01:03 PM

Damb. Was not expecting Godzilla to be in this episode.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-09-2023 11:31 PM

Pog Soup.
