Star Wars The Mandalorian and Grogu

[TK_IIVI]

It kinda hurts when I hear everyone say that about the Captian America thing...because in the comics - Falcon does eventually become Capitan America, Steve Rogers looses the supersoldier powers and becomes a human at peak physical strength. There are so many Cap A's it's ridiculous (over 20)!!! If you're a comics geek like me - you get used to it. Marvel had all of you fooled that Stark was dead too...huh. Secret Wars will bring back a new "sacred time-line" that includes all of the heros you thought were......well, I live this right here and see how it ages.

Interestingly enough it's sort of the reverse of Star Wars, where the latter started out with movies and then extended the universe with print content superheroes really went the opposite direction. I think we're generally inclined to see the movies as the "real deal" unless we are like you and read a lot of the other stuff.

To me a movie has to be able to stand on its own to be a good movie. Either that or there needs to be an asterisk that says "Oh, and read X, Y and Z to understand what's going on".

In general though I totally agree with comics being really flexible, super-flexible, when it comes to changing up timelines and characters. I have no problem with that really.

"The Mandalorian & Grogu" was just not very good.

And with that you'd just happen to be wrong.
A shame, maybe a little higher education would allow you to understand these things better.

It's not exactly high brow entertainment, it should have been very popular among the masses. Same with Solo

Haha, calling The Mandalorian intelligent in any way is just as a bad take as calling Andor a chick flick.

??? Andor remains about as entertaining piece of writing as watching grass grow.
A duller, more boring time spent I can't imagine.

It was a decent standalone movie. My wife loves it, she watches it over and over again....so I bought the 4k UHD Blu-ray.
