I ended up watching it last night, it as entertaining. No spoilers

I don't know, that last movie sucked so bad that I am finding it hard to get enthused.
Yeah, we just watched both episodes. Not bad, good action. I have questions, but dont want to spoil.

Feel free to discuss
1. Why does that guy LOOK like Boba Fett? Is he from the same whatever? Just another bounty hunter?

2. Who or what was that green yoda baby? Couldn't have been THE Yoda, due to the time frame. And why did it have "the force"? Maybe just an offspring?

Did you notice the Jawa's sure sounded like Minions.

Still, interesting to watch, lots of action. And not cheap and predictable. Thumbs up for now..

They are just capitalizing on the fandom for Boba Fett. From what I know, their race all wears the same type of armor. I've seen people theorizing it's a clone of Yoda. Yeah the Jawas, I was waiting for an ooteedee. It's entertaining, better than the last movie! lol

Episode 3 and 4 were real good. Will we ever see him without the helmet?  Boy, Apollo Creed sure got old.  (carl weathers)

He's in his 70's and still going strong. Remember when they took Darth Vader's helmet off? I say leave it on

Yeah, Anakin wasn't very pretty without the helmet. But Mando sounds young. I think it will be revealed at some point.

You must be getting exited for The Rise of Skywalker.  I guess this is their last chance to impress you?

I actually haven't felt one bit of excitement still. I'm sure it will be better than the dumpster fire. They showed the actor who plays him a while back.

I think I even want a baby Yoda for Christmas. On the other had I binged watched all the star wars and the kids got involved with it and now my daughter wants to be "dark Vader" as she calls him. She'll dress in alll black and walk around the house humming Darth Vader's music. So I got her a Darth Vader mask and light saber and got my boy a blue one.

It's cool when the kids get into it. Funny how none of them seem to care for the stupid characters these buffoons keep pushing on us. I have yet to meet a soul who wants a jarjar toy. My daughter loves vader, chewbacca, c3p0, r2d2 and Jabba the hutt, the classics.

McDonald's has the new toys out. Kids wanted the old stars like Darth and r2d2. Bb8 was one of the toy my daughter got. She was ok with it but really wanted Darth. I had to remind her he died 😢

Yeah, the originals were the best! My brother has the Boba Fett action figure from the early 80's

Did you have to ruin Christmas and mention Jar jar? lol...

My son wanted to see the "pre" quels, (the vomit-bag gross ones), and i heard jar jar's voice in the background...almost drove a red hot ice pick in my ears!

Every few years I have to preview the prequels again and remember why they are so bad. I just saw the new one today at Buckland IMAX in 3D. No spoilers, but it was so much better than that last dumpster fire.

i was listing to the radio the other day and the guy kind of reviewed the movie and said what "kylo ren" "mission" is. said it was a good tie in to the old movie and also compliments "rey" and her character. all in all a good movie. i kind of want to see it, might even take the kids to the theater.

must add that i got the new lion king on amazon instead of going to the theaters with the kids. im glad because they lost interest within 10 minutes and i was done with it once it hit me they pretty much changed too much.
