Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Not surprised, it was poorly marketed and requires you to watch three seasons worth of content to have context for.
It really should have just been season 4 of Mandolorian.
I will be seeing it because I have seen every Star Wars movie in theaters and I don't want that streak to be broken.
I had no idea this was being made until just now
This happens when you burn out your fans with constant releases.
It wasn't terrible. Not great, but not terrible. Worth watching if you're streaming, but not theater worthy.
Thought it was some Disney plus nonsense.
Looks like Disney's ability to keep milking their latest cute plush toy is coming to an end.
time to create another one. or get back to the old one. Young Yoda it is!
Maybe we can finally get a Jabba the Hut gay romance movie.

Honestly a series following Yoda over his life showing the decline of the Jedi order would be pretty good. I'm actually kinda surprised that wasn't a thing in the EU canon, though we did get a couple comics featuring young Yoda. Imagine how much worse of a blender Yoda in his prime would be, in EU canon he hefts a mini gun on his back and fucks up some droids and in one of the first clone wars (2008) episodes he literally blends a bunch of B1 droids in a tank.
Lucas was against exploring Yoda because that would diminish his mystique.
In a world way worse Yuuzhan Vong would've been Yoda species as the invading force from unknown regions of space.
I think the best way to deal with Yoda is to keep him as far as possible from current Star Wars soap opera framework and maintain his stories strictly in the realm of myths that might or might not be true so that every story is standalone and self-contained. something like Samurai Assassin series used to do for example
To be completely honest, I didn't even hear about this movie at all until like 2 weeks ago and I just assumed they'd release it as a Disney+ exclusive or something. I even went to a movie theater like a month ago and I heard absolutely nothing about it. Anecdotally, this tells me their marketing team had no faith in their product, so why should anyone else?
Limp and low effort. Actually kind of impressive to make a movie with so much going on be boring. The writing was like a rough draft with placeholder dialogue. Legendary actors giving wooden performances. Oof.
This is actually the only good star wars movie made by Disney that I've seen.
I only saw it bcz it was a friend's birthday and they were going already.
I had super low expectations going in, and saw a terrible movie trailer. That actually made me think the movie was going to be really bad.
Nope, turns out the trailer was just bad.
Rogue One is in the Top 2 Star Wars movie.
I didn't hear about it until I saw it on the drive in billboard.
That said, I've not finished season 2, but I loved season 1 enough to get the pinball game :)
I loved that pinball game enough to want to watch the show. Still haven’t, but I wanted to.
Yeah I’d only barely heard of it, and even then I thought it was just what they were naming the new season of the TV show. Marketing department fucked up.
Like the actual pinball machine?
