There's a new Star Wars movie! In theaters! Here in 2026! To celebrate the occasion, we've gathered our found family of Star Friends to break it all down scene-by-scene. Are we feeling the Rotta of it all, or is the whole movie just a long, loud fart? Plus, is cabbage a better vegetable than Brussels sprouts? What does this movie mean for the future of Mando and Grogu, both in-universe and out? And how do we feel about Dave Filoni's HAT??? All this and more!

Com muita ação e um fiapo de história, filme derivado da série "The Mandalorian" traz novamente Pedro Pascal no papel-título, acompanhado do pequeno e poderoso Grogu. Dirigido por Jon Favreau, criador da série, o longa-metragem traz o caçador de recompensas Din Djarin percorrendo a galáxia atrás de ex-líderes militares do Império. No caminho, ele e Grogu recebem uma missão do clã Hutt para resgatar Rotta, filho do falecido Jabba. Grogu continua roubando a cena, mas o enredo do filme não engata e frustra quem espera saber mais sobre os personagens e ver a trajetória deles avançar dentro da franquia "Star Wars".

The Mandalorian war einst als Zugpferd von Disney+ angetreten, um den damals neuen Streaming-Dienst erfolgreich starten zu lassen, aber auch all die Star-Wars-Fans wieder zu versöhnen, die der Konzern selber mit seinen hauseigenen Filmen aus einer “weit, weit entfernten Galaxis” zuvor enttäuscht und massiv frustriert hatte. Der damalige Lichtblick sollte jedoch mit Staffel 2 seinen Zenit erreichen, schon in Staffel 3 erschütternd schnell verglimmen. Trotz putzigem “Baby Yoda”. Der Kinofilm The Mandalorian & Grogu bestätigt leider, dass auch Jon Favreau und Dave Filoni im immer ausgelutschter und belangloser wirkenden Star-Wars-Universum längst nichts cooles, spannendes, packendes und schon gar nichts erzählenswertes mehr einfällt. Parallel dazu wirkt ihr Filmhandwerk auch immer statischer, wirken digitale Hintergründe wieder so plump platziert und reale Kulissen so leblos ausgeleuchtet wie wir es vorher nur aus der Prequel-Trilogie von George Lucas so von Star Wars kannten. - Eine traurige Bestandsaufnahme im OverExposition-Podcast.

Usher, Chace Crawford, Laz Alonso, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara y Nathan Mitchell.

Join Tricia Barr and Sarah Woloski in a deep dive into spoiler territory for The Mandalorian and Grogu. While Din Djarin might not have moved quite as far as we expected, Grogu's journey in this movie was a pleasant surprise. Also a surprise, Rotta the Hutt's evolution from Stinky, the son of Jabba the Hutt in the Clone Wars animated movie, to a rebellious older teen stepping out from under his father's shadow. In this episode, we also dig into some favorite music pieces from the soundtrack and share our adventures at the Disney Parks on the movie's opening day.  For our video of the behind-the-scenes tour, check out our special Youtube episode from last week.

Jason, Rachel and Jesh continue the Thumb War Star Wars rewatch with a spoiler-filled review of The Mandalorian and Grogu. Is it a real Star Wars movie, or does it feel like The Mandalorian Season 4 got squeezed into a theatrical release? We discuss Grogu as a character vs. Grogu as a toy, Pedro Pascal's helmet-based performance, the lack of stakes, the surprisingly strong opening sequence, Sigourney Weaver, Jeremy Allen White, Rotta the Hutt, Dave Filoni cameos, Star Wars fatigue, and whether Baby Yoda still has the juice. Ash came in with a more generous take. Jason and Rachel came in with notes. Many, many notes. Spoilers for The Mandalorian and Grogu and the broader Star Wars universe.

THIS IS THE WAY! There's a new a Star Wars movie out now so of course Bill Z and Steve take a break from comic books to bring back our good friends podcast veteran Craig Lantz and The Reel Gay Movie's Mike Lovins to discuss The Mandalorian and Grogu!! The movie was directed by Jon Favreau, who co-wrote the film with Dave Filoni and Noah Kloor. Based on the Disney+ television series The Mandalorian, the film finds Pedro Pascal returning to star as Din Djarin/The Mandalorian alongside Jeremy Allen White, Jonny Coyne, Martin Scorsese, and Sigourney Weaver. Set after the fall of the Galactic Empire and the end of the Manadalorian series, Djarin and his apprentice Grogu are enlisted by the New Republic as bounty hunters to track down former Imperials. A new mission involving the rescue of Jabba the Hut's son does not go as planned and we find Mando and Grogu trying to set things right. So hit play to hear Bill, Steve, Craig and Mike talk about this latest tale set a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away!!

Tonight on Damn You Hollywood, we're reviewing Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, the first theatrical Star Wars film since The Rise of Skywalker and the cinematic continuation of the hit Disney+ series. Directed by Jon Favreau and co-written with Dave Filoni and Noah Kloor, the film follows Din Djarin and Grogu as they work with the New Republic to rescue Rotta the Hutt while uncovering new Imperial threats in the fractured post-Empire galaxy. Pedro Pascal returns alongside Sigourney Weaver, Jeremy Allen White, and Jonny Coyne, with Ludwig Göransson once again handling the score. Originally conceived as The Mandalorian Season 4 before the Hollywood strikes and Lucasfilm's pivot back toward theatrical releases, the film represents Disney's attempt to transform streaming-era Star Wars back into event cinema. Mixed critical reactions have praised Pascal and Göransson while questioning whether the series' episodic DNA fully translates to the big screen.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

A Star Wars movie is back in theaters for the first time since 2019! In this episode of Hyperspace Theories, Tricia Barr and B.J. Priester kick off our analysis of The Mandalorian and Grogu with a discussion of the major storytelling decisions underlying the film, which is directed by Jon Favreau and co-written by Favreau, Dave Filoni, and Noah Kloor (The Book of Boba Fett). As the sixth movie of the Disney era and the first Star Wars film built upon source material from outside the preceding movies – specifically the three seasons of the Disney+ streaming series The Mandalorian as well as adjacent series The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka – the creation of The Mandalorian and Grogu faced a number of challenges not previously faced by theatrical Star Wars, including an imperative to produce the movie on a considerably smaller budget than the Sequel Trilogy releases while reviving fan and customer enthusiasm for Star Wars on the big screen and the ancillary merchandise revenue that has long accompanied Star Wars films. This context in the state of the franchise explains a number of key decisions about the story built for The Mandalorian and Grogu, including the desire to acknowledge the full range of previous Star Wars stories and fans, from the Original Trilogy and Expanded Universe to the Prequels, The Clone Wars, and Disney-era films, animation, and publishing. We also examine the themes found at the heart of the story, and the non-Star Wars cinematic influences on Favreau's movie. We then revisit a frequent aspect of the Hyperspace Theories podcast: examining how Star Wars' longstanding association with the monomyth story structure shapes the tale being told in The Mandalorian and Grogu. Unsurprisingly, as a standalone film rather than a segment within a trilogy, The Mandalorian and Grogu readily aligns with the cinematic story structure expressed by Christopher Vogler, a distillation and updating of the classical monomyth found in the work of Joseph Campbell. This plot structure also guides the character arcs for The Mandalorian and Grogu, which features the two titular characters as well as significant character development for a third: Rotta the Hutt, who faces his own father-son thematic turmoil as well as pivotal choices about his path in life and the future he seeks for himself in the galaxy far far away.

Dave Filoni, during a Mandalorian and Grogu interview with Jon Favreau, mentions the World Between Worlds and how it doesn't work as time travel or grants the ability to meddle with events.

If it's not time travel, what is it? THEORY SABERS - https://theorysabers.com/ Best sellers: Ani III - The Chosen One - https://www.theorysabers.com/product/...

In this episode, we break down everything we know about "The Mandalorian and Grogu" and why it might be the most important "Star Wars" movie in years.

We talk expectations, concerns, and whether a Disney+ story can truly carry a theatrical film. Plus, we mix in plenty of random "Star Wars" discussion, from favorite characters to where the franchise could be headed. If this movie hits, it could reset everything. If it doesn't, that says just as much. ---------- Website: http://bamageeks.com Become a Bama Geeks supporter: http://www.bamageeks.com/join Available on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Amazon, Spotify, and YouTube.

One week until The Mandalorian and Grogu hits theaters! We share our hopes and expectations for this new Star Wars adventure and wonder if the popularity of Baby Yoda will translate into box office success. Hot off his stunning appearance in Maul: Shadow Lord, Darth Vader is in the news spotlight this week as Dave Filoni recently discussed the lore of Vader. And speaking of Darth, The Dark Lord himself debuted at Disneyland's Galaxy's Edge and we have highlights. Ever wonder what caused the death of Leia in The Rise of Skywalker? Swank has a great breakdown. Plus, the Ahsoka season two debut window has been revealed, RFR invades Ohio next week, and Listener Feedback presents us with the question "Is Disney bad at killing characters"?

Star Wars icons Dave Filoni (writer, executive producer, and co-president of Lucasfilm) and John Favreau (writer and director) join me and some of my peers from the Star Wars fan site/podcast community to discuss The Mandalorian and Grogu.

This exciting update comes on the heels of Daredevil: Born Again's Season 2 finale and the release of the Punisher special presentation; with all eyes on the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day and, of course, Avengers: Doomsday,Disney's Tuesday presentation also shed some light on Lucasfilm's streaming future with Ahsoka Season 2 promised for an early 2027 release window on Disney Plus, more than 3 years after Season 1 streamed in 2023.

Mottola is no stranger to the DCU or James Gunn, having directed episodes of Peacemaker. While DC has yet to comment, Moon Knight writer Matthew Orton reportedly wrote the initial screenplay for the villain duo team-up and is set to do a rewrite if Mottola does end up being the choice.
