Caught up on the last two episodes last night. The pirate captain guy still really irritates me as a villain, but they were definitely my two favorite episodes of the season. I like what they're doing with Bo Katan's character.
I think a part of my frustration with this show is that I'm pretty much CGI'd out. After the brilliant return to practical effects in Top Gun Maverick and fatigue from however many years of Marvel movies and the like, a CGI spaceship dogfight just doesn't do it for me anymore. I have other issues with the show, but that at least isn't their fault.
I think, for the most part, the Mandalorian has been the show that uses The Volume the best. I feel like we are starting to see the tide turn a bit, with more movies and shows using practical effects and more strategic CGI.
I genuinely don't understand how the pirate captain made it into the final product.
