I want that too. Hell, throw in some A, B and Y-Wings for more fun.PatAg said:
That episode really makes me wish we'd get a Rogue Squadron or Wraith Squadron series.
Give me X-wings and X-wing pilots doing their thing all day.

Yea, the drop ship moment was as awesome as I was hoping it would be.Quad Dog said:
The Starship Troopers style Mandalorian drop out of the ship was awesome. Coincidentally, I had just given my son that book to read but he hadn't started yet.

while I liked that the Armorer snuck in like the executioner guy in Scarface to take out the gunner in the palace.... seems like a perfect opportunity for the Mando Commandos to use their cool jetpacks to get up there and take them out instead of sitting there getting shot at.

For the record, there have been a million guesses posted in this thread, that have lead to all kinds of good conversation. I simply assumed this was another guess that would be interesting to discuss. Our resident spoiler-reader is the one who seemingly confirmed its authenticity. I don't read any of those leaks, or follow any of those sites.

Not with jet packs on, genius.

Kind of are. If you jet pack up, you're breaking cover and an open target for your enemy. You'd better be gone in a hurry.
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.Scriffer said:
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.
Were they paying homage to Bill Nighy's cursed Davy Jones character by making the alien pirate captain look like a sea creature? Almost made me wonder if they'll be adding a Pirates of the Mandalorian ride at Disney World.Quote:
I genuinely don't understand how the pirate captain made it into the final product.

I really don't understand Disney.. a Rogue/Wraith Sq TV show .. like a Battlestar Galatica/Black Sheep series .. would be extremely successful.PatAg said:

It was meant to be kitschy. They even had a Smee.
