Yeah, bit like game patches going through the right channels despite being ready for release. Still feels like a ridiculous wait.
So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Nabbed my Disney+ subscription at 5:30AM this morning before heading off to work.

Will be checking out Mando Ep 1 tonight.

Woke up and watched Episode 1 of the GUMMI BEARS...cause I missed that show.

Wow! I had heard earlier today that the end of the episode would have you on the edge of your seat, dying for the next one and that was very accurate! Did not see that coming.

Spoiler


This show may be worth putting up with the weekly episode release after all. Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni.

Wanted more SW after it was over so we threw on Rebels Ep 1. God I love that show and its characters!

Agreed on all points.

I actually threw on Mando Ep 1 again after and watched over again. Will probably throw on REBELS myself for a rewatch before bed. :D Good day to be a Star Wars fan!

Can’t wait for the rest of the cast to get introduced....Gina Carano, Ming Na Wen, Giancarlo ect...and can’t wait to get the LEGO version of the Razorcrest.

What was obvious was the humor, timing and passion from both Filoni and Favreau.

All the little details; like the stairwell and music lifted from Jabbas palace, the droids, weapons, and mostly THAT armor. So much that made a second viewing necessary, like immediately! Even the end credits look awesome.

Live Action Rebels - what could be better?

(Also really nice to see footage online of George Lucas on set with Filoni.)

I like to think he was referring to the carbon freeze!

We should speculate the long-game for that late ep revelation.

If you've listened to the Favreau and Filoni question panel, they were both very much of a mind that this would be a set number of seasons, with an end goal in mind from the start - not a 'run and run until interest wanes' type of show. Like how Filoni handled Rebels after Clone Wars got cancelled early.

Their long game, including the Obi Wan series, could tie into both Solo and Rebels. Certain Rebels arcs weren't resolved, and there is already a crossover with Solo and CWs.

It was just so, so satisfying to see Filoni and Favreaus names together on the credits.

Honestly, these two creatives are two of my all time favourite and respected ones, so I'm in like flynn for the long haul here.

I kinda feel a bit sorry for Boba Fett.

This was the treatment everyone wanted for him post RotJ - now he looks like a shabby imposter in comparison, which I guess he always was.

I can see that, but you know what? Lining up a new show with the past we know about Fett, and the fact that he's not REALLY a Mando at all but an unaltered clone of a dissident Mando born on Concord Dawn...and all the other stuff would be...trite I think....but this is a nice open canvas with a linking "look" that let's us basically make a Fett character that is more than just set dressing. If that makes sense?
