    Did Disney go Woke and hire a bunch of inexperienced writers for this series? The first two seasons of the Mandalorian were so much better.
    Same writer. Directing and acting play a huge part.

    Trivia: James Gunn wrote the entire first season in 8 weeks during COVID quarantine out of pure boredom, not actually believing the series would ever get picked up.

He's just way too cool of a character in the expanded universe and animated series to just cast aside. And they completely altered Boba Fett's character.


    Disney's been woke. You could see it in the Marvel junk they've been putting out starting with Captain Marvel and Black Panther.
    Name a franchise that is not touched by woke.

    It's a TV show that would never get produced today.

    I think these spinoff series have relatively escaped the wokeness. It's funny just a follow up from my comment, I came across this article. They are blaming this particular director for f****** things up. I agree. Some episodes were clutzyly thrown together, others were great.

    I can tolerate actors only hired for whatever "boxes" they check to a certain extent, my complaint comes in when the storyline is just stupid. Don't know how much that's the director or others.

     
    Seriously though, In the Mandalorian they took a bunch of farmers and beat back the baddies and a Walker with one days training and strategy. Here we have experienced fighters and their only strategy is to clump together, hide and run away. FFS they should have had the high ground, set a couple traps at least. If not simply go on the offensive. Did the writer let his 8 year old little girl write the scene?

    Figures that he was behind the Power Rangers biker gang. Dumbest idea ever.

    Ha. Yeah, I went through picking on everything in the episodes ( see below). It's actually pretty much the same writer throughout, so that's why I thought it might be the directing. Because they can decide pretty much everything, what to emphasise, what to omit.

    But yeah, it was just a kind of a dumb episode

    Hm. Did you contemplate things like...

     
    How did a 9 foot Wookie get into the palace and into Fett's private quarters unnoticed?

    How did a bikie gang that Boba beat up singlehandedly kill an entire Tusken enclave?

    A million dollar car chase to capture...wait for it, some half-baked Domo Major?

    The Jabba scene at the end was pretty stupid?
