@spoiler4you God forbid someone holds the multi million dollar franchise to a certain standard or a Disney fan girl will say you just don't enjoy "fun and whimsy". Let's stop pretending you see our point and we see yours. You don't mind slop if it's fun, we have different standards. That's it

people hating on The Mandalorian and Grogu need to realize that sometimes a good movie can just be something filled with whimsy and fun

@StarWars_Cringe And these people genuinely think it makes them look good and not like complete idiots who have tiktok attention spans and need to be pacified with shiny lights and spectacle slop. With their smug faces lol putting it out there for all to see just how bad their taste is

Even if I put one pic at a time, you would've still had to tap or click on it to see the full thing. Someone genuinely thought they were proving a point by using these images. Like dawg... 😭

@Lotus_630 @TSoS_ At what point can we stop pretending that the opinions of people who love slop and people who care about good writing and more are equally valid? Why do we have to keep acting like we're discussing things on equal footing. It's like talking literature with toddlers. Fruitless

@TSoS_ We still have people that hate Andor for the most stupidest reasons. This is the movie made for them.

#TheMandalorianAndGrogu is the most meaningless project Star Wars has ever seen; a movie corporately engineered not to ruffle anyone's feathers. Wholly inconsequential, its persistent commitment to being inoffensive has become its greatest offense. It evades being a complete narrative failure by having no narrative at all and unlike Season 3 of this once beloved series, the movie sidesteps mischaracterising beloved characters by not characterising them in any way. As Mando and Grogu tediously drag themselves from Point A to Point B and occasionally find out they should actually head to Point C instead, we learn nothing new about them. Din Djarin's journey towards becoming a walking action figure has finally been completed. I have never seen a lead character this fundamentally boring and utterly charmless. He barely speaks and even when he does, he never has anything important to say. He goes through no character arc, we learn nothing new about him and at the end of the story, he remains wholly unchanged. The few conversations we get between our "characters" - most of whom are puppets or CGI creatures - showcase Jon Favreau's dialogue, which is so bad, it makes even George Lucas most hated Prequel scenes sound like they were written by Tony Gilroy. With almost no story to tell and characters who have nothing to say - the most insight into their psyche is Rotta telling you how hard it is to make a name for himself as Jabba the Hutt's Nepo baby - the movie instead pivots to heavy use of action sequences. A few of them have genuinely entertaining moments, but most of them are far too long and utterly boring. Many of the fights feel completely weightless and oddly stilted; I have never witnessed an action movie with this little sense of momentum, which is strange, considering Favreau once shot Iron Man. There is a single sequence in this movie that actually evoked the magical feeling of watching a Star Wars movie. For roughly 20 minutes, Grogu has to do things on his own and the puppetry, cinematography, music as well as the visual storytelling and gags go hand in hand to create a memorable, incredibly beautiful sequence. Had the entire movie been like it, I would be singing its praises. Alas, all good things have to end, as the movie plods forward to its boring finale where nothing remotely interesting happens. The focus on Mando and Grogu's father-son relationship feels strangely secondary to this movie; even after Grogu saves his father's life in a way that shows how much the child has learned, it is barely acknowledged in favour of quickly throwing our heroes back into action. Everyone is really just...there. Embo is there, as is Garazeb Orellios. Colonel Ward - played by a bored looking Sigourney Weaver who completely phones it in here - gets roughly five minutes as the questmaster of Mando's story and has little influence on the plot. The villains are boring, one dimensional and unmemorable and disappear from the story for long stretches of time. Their motivations are either boring or nonexistent, but its no surprise in a story that really has nothing to say. If you're hoping for any insight into the New Republic and Imperial Remnant, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Though the cinematography sometimes evokes the feeling of being in a galaxy far, far away with, a few great establishing shots and a few interesting places (Nal Hutta was gorgeous!), this film still looks like a TV production far too often; utterly baffling considering the rumoured 166 million dollar budget. (Denis Villeneuve made Dune: Part One for the same price!) There is a crowd of unequivocally positive people who are already defending this as "a fun summer blockbuster" that you should not care to dissect. Afterall, "Star Wars is just for kids!" These poor excuses for an inherently bad movie are especially funny, considering this kids' franchise started with movies so well made, they became the gold-standard for blockbusters. 3.5/10

@Huntalorian Sigh... No. TROS is still bad. Mando and Grogu is bad. The Acolyte is also still very bad. Don't drag Acolyte out of the pit for revision lol

We should’ve gotten 5 seasons of this man

@scarlettspder2 You're just annoyed because you didn't get Andor and don't understand what's so bad about the slop they've been putting out cus you like slop. And that's fine. But don't expect other people who do care to not have higher expectations

@scarlettspder2 This such a non-argument. "Like Andor" and fun aren't opposites. Also no one is asking for everything to be Andor. What people are asking is for the writing to not be sloppy, or just okay, but at least try to approach Andor's level of writing. Which a fun show or movie can have

this is the actual problem everyone expects every star wars project to be EXACTLY like andor or have the same tone star wars cant just be fun anymore

@ZohranKMamdani Sadly, Arsenal is a Zionist club that employs rapists, is in bed with Israeli sponsors and fires staff for supporting Palestine

we both up now

@IncFan2004 @VitoComedy It would be a lot better if it was, but at least the writing and story has to be good indeed. And not overuse the same old characters over and over. If I see Ahsoka one more time I'll jump

@VitoComedy Not every Star Wars project needs to be as sophisticated as Andor, but it should tell a good story

Dave Filoni must hate Andor so fucking much

@BrotaroTheBro @DiscussingFilm Don't forget bout Ahsokas

@DiscussingFilm Ahsoka, Ahsoka V2, Ahsoka Origins, The Ahsoka, Ahsoka Last Stand, Ahsoka Kills the Dark Side, Ahsoka vs Inquisitors, Ahsoka and Abeloth, Ahsoka vs Aliens, Ahsoka vs Predators, 7 Ahsokas, Ahsoka Bandlands, Ahsoka Exiles, Ahsoka Rising…

Dave Filoni says there will be infinite possibilities for the types of Star Wars stories they can tell under his leadership. “I’m looking forward to bringing a lot of these ideas & visions to the fans. Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen it.”

@grahamformaine Both parties are Israeli loyalists, simply because the US has to have a satellite state in the middle east from which they can sow destruction and instability

The words "Gaza" and "genocide" appear precisely zero times in the DNC autopsy. Turning a blind eye to crimes against humanity was a grave injustice, and a terrible election strategy.

@creel625 @TIME 💀💀 true

@TIME Corporate stooge Dave FiPhony brutally cinemogged by chad craftsmen Tony Gilroy

The first Star Wars movie in seven years chose the path of a cute green alien over the sophisticated storytelling of 'Andor.' time.com/article/2026/0…

@ivyphobic It's not "gen a, b, c is dumb" it's 12 year olds are dumb. Always have been, always will be. Can't expect most kids on social media to be very educated. Which is why social media needs to be banned for kids under 16

gen alpha dumb as fuck

@JayneZirkle 😂😂😂😂😂😂 the most pathetic reach I've ever seen

May 26th. 7 PM. Outside Gracie Mansion.

Zohran Mamdani just became the first NYC mayor in 61 years to skip the Israel Day Parade. Every mayor since 1964 showed up. Mamdani won’t stand with Jewish New Yorkers.

@youoldfool @abzMCFC___ There are far more leftist clubs itw, but as far as big clubs, it's up there. But the more money you make, the more corporatist greed gets in the way of leftist morals

@abzMCFC___ laporta aside theres never been a more leftist club in history

the club of the people has always been barcelona

@iMiaSanMia Given how obsessed Germany currently is with being on the wrong side of history again, I wouldn't be surprised if an Israeli company would get an exception. OnlyFans Bundesliga anyone?

The DFL has ruled out the introduction of a name sponsor for the Bundesliga such as is the case in other top leagues (La Liga EA Sports, Ligue 1 McDonald's, Serie A Enilive) "All options in every direction are being discussed. But no, that wasn’t an option for us", said DFL director Marc Lenz [@dpa]

@CarltonWayne90 @snowmistspiders 60% of people who watch star wars now are just Disney+ surfers who don't care about good TV, but just see flashing lights and lightsabers and think hey thats kinda like the Marvel slop I watch, I can watch more of this

@snowmistspiders To this day it pisses me off that anyone acts like Ahsoka wasn’t a trash show

@Gear521N @snowmistspiders Just because you are not into good stuff that has more depth than Marvel-esque spectacle slop does not mean your opinion is worth a whole lot to people who do enjoy finer things

@snowmistspiders Acting like Andor is a good Star Wars show.

@AlexPetropBr @snowmistspiders Maybe, not slop? That's the easiest question of all time lol. It's such a simple fix. More competent writers, less Filoni, less Ahsoka drivel

@snowmistspiders Honestly and i am being serious here, what exactly do you guys want for the future of Star Wars

@hamzahelal @FirstOrderBase Only because it's animated and Sam Witwer is largely involved. Plus the tone is something relatively new and they knew what people wanted

@FirstOrderBase Filoni’s “corner” of Star Wars literally released a critically acclaimed animated Star Wars show a month ago

The decline of Favreau and Filoni’s corner of Star Wars has been surreal to watch. It technically started with S2 of The Mandalorian, but no one noticed over the cameo fest. Every story since, from Book of Boba Fett onward, has been a creative clusterfuck.

@ArnoutKennis @FirstOrderBase It's overrated for sure, but compared to the rest of Disney sw it's something decent. Especially after the sequels when people had no hope

@FirstOrderBase It started way earlier. S1 of mando was bad too btw.
