Andy 2218 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 They’ll do a recap to make it all good. Imagine the drop in viewership had they NOT brought back “Baby Yoda” in the interim.

JNHFan2000 1379 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 To be honest, like all the trailers for previous seasons this really doesn't give away a lot. Which I love. In that way the show has so many surprises. I really wish more trailers would do that! Manakin Skywalker and Brando 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jay 31027 Posted January 18 Popular Post Share Posted January 18 Season 3's eight new episodes will be directed by returning directors Rick Famuyiwa, Carl Weathers, and Bryce Dallas Howard, plus new directors Lee Isaac Chung (Minari), Peter Ramsey (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse), and Black Panther cinematographer Rachel Morrison.

It was probably filmed as such and only changed to its own thing after the fact and they just didn't bother to reconstruct the narrative at that point. I would imagine most that watched Mando would at the very least check out Book of Boba Fett and would at least be made aware that there are essentially 2 Mandalorian focused episodes in the middle.

Jay 31027 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 To me, it seems like the stronger narrative arc is: Keep seasons 1 and 2 the same, ending with Din tearfully letting Grogu go study with Luke The Boba show is about Boba on Tatooine, and Din still shows up to help, but not with Grogu Season 3 would be largely what we're getting, Din & Bo Kattan take back Mandalore or whatever, but episodes would occasionally cut to Grogu studying with Luke throughout the season. Heading towards the season finale, Din and Grogru would reunite and Grogru would help with whatever big action finale they have planned for season 3 on Mandalore Instead, it's kind of weird that they summed up Grogu's time with Luke and reuniting with Din in 2 episodes, and had him help with the big Tattooine battle instead of anything to do with Din's personal life. And now Din will go through the whole Mandalore plot with Grogu with him the whole time. Seems less powerful. But we'll see how it goes! I have faith in F&F!

Popular Post mstrox 5680 Posted January 18 Popular Post Share Posted January 18 I’m okay with the idea to reunite them in BOBF on the face of it. I don’t know if it was wholly successful. Part of it is a marketing problem. They should have introduced it at the end of S2 with something like “The Mandalorian will return in…The Book of Boba Fett.” Put Mando in the trailers a bit, etc. and name it “The Mandalorian: The Book of Boba Fett.” Clue viewers in to the fact that it was in some way going to be a continuation of the story they were watching. Then for me there’s only an issue of the passing of time. I think if they had another full episode with Mando on a side adventure earlier in the series (somehow tied to the Pykes), then returned to the Boba story, and then came back to Mando a few episodes later with the same arc we got, you’d get a better impression of time passed without Grogu. A Pykes mission earlier in the series may also provide some more motivation for Mando to show up for the final battle. (I really liked BOBF though, so those of you who thought it didn’t work might just find the situation unsalvageable). enderdrag64, Disco Stu and Andy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNHFan2000 1379 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 The whole thing that these 2 series have done incredibly well is not showing/getting things spoiled before it is revealed in an episode. So Boba in Mandalorian was a surprise. And Mando in Boba was a surprise. And I think that they are ginna keep doing this with S3 (and maybe more). And personally I love this and I'll watch anything SW, even if I don't think it's that good Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grogu stunts Din Djarin’s growth as a character and robs him of a lot of agency as well as stopping the show from being purely Mandalorian focused It was also silly to reverse such an important narrative arc in a completely different show, as people have pointed out Book of Boba Fett was marketed as a spin-off of The Mandalorian, not a continuation of it Edmilson and ThePenitentMan1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 31027 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Anyone else more excited for another season of score than another season of show? I mean I am looking forward to both, but with the season 2 score being neutered by recording restrictions, it's gonna be cool to get a whole season of "normal" scoring, at least I hope! And I hope we get episodic albums again, but it doesn't seem likely does it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 31027 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Ditto I thought: Shirley: Book of Boba and Creed 3 Göransson: Wakanda Forever and Mando 3 Maybe Göransson is doing Ahsoka too and didn't have time for all of Mando 3? EDIT: Oh I forgot! Göransson is doing Oppenheimer for Nolan! That probably conflicted with Mando 3 JNHFan2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's doing Oppenheimer (out July 2023), and Wakanda Forever was released in November 2022. That's more work than Creed III. After working with Nolan and winning 2 Emmys, the Mandalorian is probably not a priority for him anymore, and requires a lot more work than a film.

Chewy 1946 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 That article mentions: Quote While the full Season 3 music credits have not been confirmed yet, our understanding is that it will be similar to last year’s The Book of Boba Fett with Shirley being credited as the score composer and Göransson for providing the themes. So it's not 100% Shirley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
