Looks fun.

How spoilery is the new trailer? Sometimes I try to avoid them.

Basic gist, appears Mando and Grogu go on an adventure to take out Empire loyalists.

I don’t usually care to view trailers either, this one may have a few things spoiled you may not want to have viewed.

Can definitely tell a solid chunk of this was filmed on the Volume, which would explain why it may be one of the cheapest Star Wars films made at a reported $166M

Okay, I'll probably hold off. Chances are I'll see it when I go see Hoppers anyway.

In my opinion, that's a good thing!

I hope it isn't a spoiler to say that we get to see Pedro some.

The trailer looked fun. I'm hoping it's more in line with Seasons 1-2 of Mando than Season 3. I'm still annoyed they're making a movie of this, but excited about taking my six-year-old.

(The X-Files: Fight the Future is still the absolute pinnacle of tv show being turned into a movie - which released IN BETWEEN SEASONS and continued the storyline/mythos - so I'm very judgy about this. )

Wait - Pedro's in it?

My understanding is that this movie is the lead-in to Ashoka season 2 and then Dave Filoni's "Endgame" style Mandalorian universe movie to tie all the D+ series threads together. There is going to be more back-and-forth between D+ series and theatrically released movies, as I understand it.

But SW is such a huge mess. Plans may change. Like you, I don't understand why TWDC and Lucasfilm felt a streaming series being exhibited as a feature film is a good idea and how this improves SW brand and its overall direction.

After watching the trailer, I was left shaking my head and I won't be seeing this movie its opening weekend. It will be the first SW movie I have not attended opening weekend. Maybe I won't even go. I don't know. I'm happy others love this thing. It does not work for me.
