Talkie Tuesday: The Mandalorian

 

"This is the way."

 

Hello everyone!

 

And I hope you've enjoyed the ride which Disney+ was so happy to arrange for us over the past two months together.

 

Of course there's people out there who are unhappy and a ton of rumours are bopping around.

 

It happens with anything and everything these days. Social media and the internet in general seem to be starved and take even just someone casually turning their head to the very next level of OHMYGOD THEY'RE GOING XYZ!!!

 

I swear I sometimes think I'm living in Bizarro world.

 

BUT that said, I know I absolutely loved the past two months, and can't believe they're already over.

 

How does time fly by SO fast?!?

 

So without further ado, let's not waste any more of it. Because we have a lone gunslinger in the wild, wild West of a galaxy far, far away and his baby to check in with, in the third season of the acclaimed hit series, The Mandalorian.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Obi-Wan Kenobi

"The time of the Jedi is over."

Hello everyone!

How excited are you?

Very?

Beyond imagination???

I hope you are at least! Because the past month and a half has been ALL about Star Wars, baby, and I am SO here for it!

If any of you know me at all, you'll know that I've said before I enjoy the Prequel Trilogy quite a bit, and that's mostly because of two characters, Padmé Amidala ... and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

This is helped along immensely by Ewan McGregor and Natalie Portman, of course, but in general these are the stories I'm into the most.

So naturally, when Disney+ announced its limited series, I was stoked.

Let's dig those lightsabers out of the sand, everyone, because Obi-Wan Kenobi needs them!

Talkie Tuesday: Star Wars Celebration 2022

 

"A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away ..."

 

Hello there!

 

 

Bet you didn't see this one coming, did you?

In favour of the very simple fact that it was almost literally Star Wars week going from last week to this one, and because I'd basically been streaming the news and keeping tabs on it pretty much all weekend, I decided to skip the traditional movie review.

Instead, I'm going to be chatting (briefly) about what happened over this past weekend, or what we KNOW happened, because there's bound to be stuff in the background that we have no clue about either.

And you know me - I'm a Star Wars fan, have been since the Prequels.

Also, you already know I'm going to say the Prequels are AWESOME. Your argument is invalid to me, because those were the movies I grew up with.

So without further ado, it's time to dig up our lightsabers from wherever we buried them (middle of the desert included), grab our astromech droids and head on out among the stars.

Because the Star Wars Celebration just happened, guys, and it was AMAZING.

 

Talkie Tuesday: The Mandalorian

 

"This is the way." 

Hello everyone!

If you're looking at the poster image of tonight's blog post and thinking to yourself 'oh man, this looks cool!' ... I will agree with you.

Because it IS cool.

When the show premiered in 2019 there was a lot of anticipation riding on its shoulders because of all the discourse surrounding Star Wars, Disney, and the Sequel Trilogy. I won't be getting into that in this post, but suffice to say fans were skeptical, thinking that they would once again be let down.

And then Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni delivered.

They delivered BIG TIME.

With 2020 being the way it was, I suppose it would be fair to assume that, well, we needed something as good as this. We really, truly needed to lose ourselves in a galaxy far, far away.

And season two of the critically acclaimed show The Mandalorian came and went with a bang.

Where's the lie though? 😅
