The Star Wars franchises new hope
The Star Wars franchises new hope.
As a massive Star Wars fan and being old enough to have experienced the originals, I really enjoyed season 1. While I have liked the new Disney Star Wars films to varying degrees, I haven’t loved them entirely. I didn’t have great hopes for Disney’s series - I found my own lack of faith disturbing.
I happy to admit I was wrong. It feels so much more authentic and more star warsy than the recent films, the filming feels nostalgic. With the absence of the politicised content that has pervaded the Star Wars universe recently, The Mandalorian is darker, grittier, great effects, action packed and (perhaps most importantly) just a simpler story – told well. Also worth mentioning is the awesomeness of The child aka ‘baby yoda’.
My only minor criticism would be that the episodes got to be a bit formulaic – Mandalorian turns up at new location, makes a new ally, defeats that episode enemy, moves on … reminded me a little of the weekly A-Team episodes. Just me?
Highly recommended - A must see for Star Wars Fans!

The Star Wars series on Super Nintendo was probably the best early set of Star Wars games I ever played. When i was a kid,, I used to play these games for hours since you pretty much had to start over every time you died. Kind of frustrating, but it made the game all the more satisfied once you completed it. I still own all of these and replay them every few years.

Childhood revisited
Glen A Larson cashing in on the Star Wars explosion with this TV spin off. The A Team's Dirk Benedict and Lorne Greene from Bonanza were the 2 main stars until Richard Hatch as Apollo took over and became the main man. Still think the space ships were better than the X Wings from Star Wars, but never really loved it unlike Star Wars.
