I can only assume I'd feel that way even after watching the third season
>>
>>217461430
I would've been more excited prior to it becoming all mixed up with Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka and a bunch of other shit I don't care about. I still haven't seen Season 3 of the show because of that.
>>
>>217461430
I want the second act to be an entirely unrelated Boba Fett adventure. And throw in a solid 30 minutes of Ahsoka too. Maybe some neat little ominous clues hinting at the rise of the first order and palpatines return. Hinting at something that already happened in a movie that came out almost a decade ago is pretty good foreshadowing, no?
>>
>>217461942
Apparently things didn't go well between yoda and luke?
>>
>>217461953
>a movie that came out almost a decade ago
Over anon. It's been over a decade.
>>
>>217461942
THIS,the only way they can salvage the rek of season 3 is if they'll actually show Grogu getting cocoon'd into their teenage form & actually started talking with Mando it's literally been years & he's STIL a child
>>
I am just a little bit even though I will more than likely be somewhat disappointed but I'm a nostalgiafag for Star Wars.
>>
>>217461430
No way this movie is going to reach $1B at the box-office. Even Rise of Skywalker struggled to reach that goal.

the wreck was the finale of season 2, where they had CGI mark hamil break up the lone wolf and cub. they burned a completely different series and the third season trying to reconcile that monumental fuckup.
>>
>>217462308
You got the opposite opinion from everybody. That wasn't bad at all even though Luke's face needed more work. It was so obvious that there would be a season with them separate and then they'd reunite again. It made no sense to have them meet up immediately again in the middle of another show.
>>
>>217462308
>the lone wolf and cub
this was the show's biggest problem from the start
>>
>>217461942
You didn't miss anything. They made a miniseries about Boba Fett but gave up halfway through and made it about whatever the Mandalorian's name was. Season 3 continued that - they went to explore some new world and met some old hag jedi who we're all supposed to recognize
>>
>>217462344
>It made no sense to have them meet up immediately again in the middle of another show.
which happened because they were in full panic mode over poor test marketing for season 3 because they broke up the lone wolf and cub, retard

the entire reason the movie is called mandalorian and [stupidest name ever] is to hammer audiences with the idea they aren't split up. that not only did seasons 2.5 and 3 not happen, the finale of season 2 didn't happen either.

The Empire is ICE and Emperor Palpatine is Donald Trump

This was one of the most jarring and obnoxious TV watching experiences of my life.

So ICE runs the entire world? Fascinating what you can learn from redditors.

s2 finale was kino, they gave us the op EU Luke shitquels failed to deliver. Had it continued with Mando's solo adventures after that I'd have given Yidsney a 2nd chance
But then they immediately ruined everything in BoBF with Luke giving the "let go of your atttachments" speech to baby yoda cause they had to tie him into the regressive and out of character shitquel version of him. That's when I realized the entire futue of star wars is fucked forever because they will never retcon the shitquels and try to "damage control" the entire thing instead.
I've completely given up on this dogshit franchise. I'll only come back for SWFOTOR (IF that shit even comes out, and sure as hell wont before 2030)
>>
>>217462458
>which happened because they were in full panic mode over poor test marketing for season 3 because they broke up the lone wolf and cub, retard
That's the complete opposite of what happened. The Boba Fett show where they reunited came out 2 years before Mandalorian season 3.
>>
>>217462523
hence why it is called mandalorian season 2.5, you utter fucking retard.
>>
>>217462077
why are you even talking in those terms lmao. they wouldn't even be aiming for half that. they will be happy with the 270M it will make. it probably cost like 30M to make, look at the poster, it's like 'hehe its le old janky cheap style (on purpose!)' and so will the movie be
>>
>>217462588
anon they're clearly spending hundreds of millions to market it.
>>
>>217462553
How does what it could be called relate to anything? I'm talking to some Zika virus victim.
>>
>>217462521
as soon as you see luke using droids to build the temple instead of making students do it to trick them into overcoming themselves, you can see he was gonna goof it
>>
>>217462639
anon. they test market things before they make them. after season 2, test marketing shows little to no interest in mandalorian season 3. so they delay and have another show undo the end of season 2. it doesn't work. so now they're putting out a movie in desperate hopes of salvaging mandalorian, the one genuine success they've had.
>>
>>217462410
That was so fucking bizzare
>here’s boba fett! We completely ruined him
>enjoy mandalorian instead!
>>
>>217462617
...was there a new burker king cup design announced or something? all i heard about is some promo shots that were universally described as 'uninspiring' and some overchoreographed long take tvshow style sequence they leaked.
>>
>>217461430
They killed Baby Yeed's hype with that absolute disaster of a Season 3. The Mandalorian hiself feels cucked and lame as fuck now.

The poster and the fact that the "movie" looks like a cheap TV show guarantee this will be a flop and the lack of promotion proves Disney knows it.
>>
>>217462673
The Boba Fett show and how it would work out was decided before Mandalorian season 2 even came out. That's why in the final episode of Mandalorian season 2 it cuts out to saying The Book of Boba Fett is coming soon.
>The production referred to each episode of The Book of Boba Fett as if it was a third season of The Mandalorian; for example, the first episode was referred to as "301" rather than the typical "101" for a series' first episode.
>>
>>217462689
>lack of promotion
>>217462617

WHICH IS IT
>>
>>217462682
Exactly. They make a boba fett show, urinate on him, then give somebody else the spotlight. I would understand their intentions if boba fett were played by a white guy because that's what they do with all legacy white characters these days but morrison is a pacific islander so wtf? I guess white-ish south american outranks pacific islander.
>>
>>217462686
mandalorian is currently the face of imax. until it comes out, every imax movie will have not only an actual trailer for the mandalorian movie, but a plug for exclusively that movie is also the imax logo.
>>
>>217462717
>hey we decided to make this completely different show mostly about unfucking the ending to mandalorian season 2 before season 2 came out

lol. lmao even.

>>217462720
well, one is a disney shill on damage control, and one has actually seen a movie in theaters recently.

>>217462733
Did you read the part where they treat it as Mandalorian season 3 with episode numbers following that style too? Even the filming began before Mandalorian season 2 came out.
>>
>>217462753
oh wow they changed episode numbers? fuck that couldn't happen without years of planning shit
>>
>>217462750
TBF i'm pretty sure that lore is ancient EU. Like early 90s dark horse era shit.
>>
>>217462762
Even the cast thought they were filming Mandalorian season 3, before the final episode of season 2 had come out.
>After two weeks of filming, members of the cast and crew learned that they were making The Book of Boba Fett rather than The Mandalorian season three.
>>
>>217461953
Amateur. What we need are nods at unknown characters that will appear in future Star Wars® Cinematic Universe projects
>>
>>217462775
all that's happening here is you proving you can't comprehend how test marketing works.
>>
>>217462794
Test marketing is why Mandalorian season 3 didn't come out in 2022 but 3 years after season 2 in 2023. Season 3 was delayed, but not because the split up but because they got together again in a show no one cared about.
>>
>>217462820
test marketing is why they shifted production of an unrelated show to try to salvage the absolute fuckup that was cgi mark hamil splitting up the mandalorian and baby yoda. why the movie is named as such.
>>
>>217462834
That was already decided before the episode even aired.

Yes, because of test marketing. that's how test marketing works. they test market things before they're aired.

That's not test marketing, that's just media marketing.

Then why didn't they just delay the show and not separate them, if they test marketed
>>
>>217462907
You are now pretending to not know what words mean.

>they make a thing
>when its mostly done, they air it to a test audience
>they then decide what to do next based upon test audience reactions

apart from marketing pukes screaming that its better to air things in weekly installments, test marketing is another reason for episodic releases.

>they made the finale of season 2 of the mandalorian
>they test marketed it
>the reactions were "not interested in season 3"
>they butcher another show to try to reverse this
>they're now releasing a movie pretending neither happened in desperate hopes of salvaging their singular success since buying star wars
>>
>>217462957
>anons discover what media market is with his example
>>
>>217462976
are you really trying to invent a new term to try to damage control the idea that poor test audience reactions to the mandalorian season 2 finale is the reason the boba fett show got forced to be mandalorian season 2.5?
>>
>>217462957
>>217463014
You're talking to a different guy and it was decided before final episode of season 2 aired like you already admitted, double retard.
>>
>>217463023
>it was decided before final episode of season 2 aired

Yes, things are test marketed before they air for the general public.
>>
>>217463034
And they test marketed season 2 and found that people liked the ending so they aired it.

No. They found negative reactions and couldn't just remake it. so they butchered another series to try to salvage the fuckup.
>>
>>217463073
No, they test marketed it and found out people loved the ending so they spent a gazillion dollars back in the day on CGIng Luke's face.
>>
>>217463081
And then they marketed it in relation to other media.
>>
>>217463081
If that were true, that people liked splitting up the sole successful thing disney has done with star wars since buying it, disney would not have suddenly decided an unrelated series needed to salvage the damage caused by the mandalorian season 2 finale.
>>
>>217463090
No, they test marketed both at the same time as they always do. They don't test market separately, test marketing is always done together. Do you not know anything about test marketing?
>>
>>217463105
It was Mandalarian season 3 until they decided it wasn't, so it wasn't unrelated.
>>
>>217463127
No. It was boba fett until negative test reactions came in from the finale of mandalorian season 2.

the timeline
>season 2 finale has negative reactions
>panic
>delay season 3
>series in production is reappropriated to salvage season 2 finale
