The Mandalorian |OT| A Complicated Profession [SPOILERS ON EPISODE DROP]

Fantastic. Everyone should watch the Mando making series ep on the sountrack. The dude has a synth wall that looks like it belongs in a space ship.
Have we discussed the season 2 rumours on Era at all? I couldn't see a thread about it.
The rumours say that Pedro had a 'falling out' with the creative team of the show half way through Season 2 filming and left the show at that point - at least physically. This is because he wanted more scenes with the helmet off which they weren't giving him. I'm sure they'll probably manage to get him back for ADR for the voice... right? I mean this is all rumour anyway and with Pedro's recent twitter activity retweeting Mandalorian related stuff - it makes me think... either this is a load of bull OR they've sorted things out and everything is fine now. Either way, I hope we don't see a big shake up which changes things in a negative way half way through the season... I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is just a load of bull.
The Mandalorian (the show) is about Din Djarin and very quickly also about 'Baby Yoda' - if the show ever pivoted away from these two characters, for example Din dying and the search for what to do with Baby Yoda passed to someone else... this kind of fundamentally changes the show. There are a lot of other rumored leaks out there which still heavily include Mando all the way to the finale so if any of those are true then this rumour of Pedro bowing out can't be true really.

I mean, I don't believe the rumors, but if there's ever been a role where it can quickly be passed on to someone else without having to alter the character's fate, it's this one.

Grace Randolph is a terrible source for anything.

I really doubt he'd leave the show over something like that. He would've known there would be few, if any, scenes where he doesn't wear the helmet and I'm sure he's well compensated for being the lead actor in the show that basically justifies Disney+ subscriptions for millions of people.
Please don't cite Grace Randolph as a source.

Really? I don't know. I really like Din/Mando and would hate if the show continued without him.
I agree. Large productions are turbulent things for all members of said production but I really don't think he'd just walk away from this.
I literally have no idea who she is and like I said in my post, I'm in the camp of thinking its bull aka fake anyway. But wanted to see what others thought of the rumour.
Same scenario with Karl Urban and Dredd. He knew the helmet stayed on
I doubt anyone would sign a contract which stipulates wearing a helmet for the majority of filming then thinking they can turn those terms around.

Beyond Grace Randolph being absolutely full of shit in any way, I can say with 100% certainty this isn't true.
Also, MANY reliable and far more proven Star Wars insiders have utterly debunked it, and are even clowning on her for saying it.

I'm saying the opposite. It would be very easy to transfer the role to another actor. They wouldn't need to affect the character.
I agree yeah, I'm sure he may have moments where he second guessed that - it's only human, but not nearly to the extent this rumour states.
That's good to hear, the rumour seemed like total bull to me anyway.
Ooooh I see, my bad. Yeah I guess that would work but the voice is quite iconic to me at this point but if they needed to switch it, I could see them doing it yeah.
Funnily enough we actually already know that Pedro Pascal didn't play The Mandalorian in every episode. There were two other people in that costume when Pascal wasn't available and it's pretty much impossible to tell.
Nothing to apologise for. Ya didn't know about her vileness.
Honestly I kind of assumed it wasn't him most of the time. They've been suspiciously cagey about how often he is and isn't in the suit to the point that I feel like he's only been in it rarely. I really don't care that much, I still think the show is great. But I do hope we get more of him without the helmet in the future.
That is still true to an extent in season 2, though he was in the suit far more often than season 1. He is in the costume for much of Season 2.
Randolph's little crusade against the Mandalorian has been nothing short of amusing.
Girl, you just were wrong. Let it go.

Boundingtocomics is a banned source on era for many many obvious reasons:
and Grace Rudolph is a POS grifter who complains about sjws and is a fake insider.

Just finished the season (last episode released just yesterday in Finland).
I think the first few episodes weren't that great, but afterwards either I got accustomed to the world or the episodes just got better.
I found the series enjoyable and the best Star Wars stuff I've seen since the original trilogy. I'm interested to continue to season 2 starting next week. But after a year of seeing Baby Yoda gifs and quotes from the series, I have to say it was not as good as I hoped. I love how it doesn't feel the need to bring up all the past known characters of the Star Wars universe, and more uses the Star Wars galaxy as a set dressing for its light but enjoyable short romps here and there.

Giancarlo is on GMA this morning so we should have new footage at least
I haven't been feeling the hype with how little has been shown.
I feel like they released way too much info way too quickly with all the casting announcements and whatnot.
but yeah, for what was one of the biggest shows of last year, there seems to be very little hype right now even though the new season premieres in just a few days
I think all the casting news was leaks, they actually haven't officially announced any of the big castings.

It's nearly done! I was going to post it later this week.
Went back to watch more of the Disney Gallery for Mandalorian ahead of S2. There is such an authenticity and respect for Star Wars' from the team which I just don't get feel from EPs 7-9. You can tell it's all coming from such a different place.
I think they counting on WOM again since the press will not receive press screeners for the premiere (like season 1). And its not like they need to convince peeps to go out of their house :p
We do know the premiere is 52 minutes, which is the longest episode/chapter yet. Favreau said there is an even varation in episode length this year so hopefully there will be more character/plot development throughout the show.
Back in and hyped for Season 2 - now I have a 55inch TV to enjoy it on instead of a 2020 iPad Air lol
Sweet! It looks great on a large 4K screen with HDR.
Counting down the days until Friday
i want it now :(
Yeah, I'm sure season 2 will be a big deal. I just wanna feel the hype you know
!

I am going to get this printed on glossy card stock later, then frame it for the living room
