CubanMissile posted:I loved Tron Legacy when it came out but man that de-aging technology doesn't hold up well over the years. Looks even worse than Rogue One. The big mistake there was putting it on real-world Jeff Bridges. If they'd just used it on CLU, they could have leaned into the uncanny digital doppelganger angle.

One thing I was disappointed by was the lack of a new score. I'm pretty sure most if not all of it was reused from season 1. The only bit I'm not sure about is the music while Din is riding the speeder bike to Mos Pelgo for the first time.

IT BURNS posted:The only two things that I didn't dig were Mando suddenly being fluent in Tusken The first season already established that he is. He's a bounty hunter who's presumably spent years flying around the galaxy picking up or shooting people in all the usual places they try to hide. There's nothing unusual about him being able to communicate with them.

You want to see someone have fun with aspect ratios go watch Transformers: The Last Knight. Bay did not give a fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck about ratio so you end up with scenes where you get 3 separate aspect ratios just taking turns one after another. I’m not exaggerating here either: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ImVeqvS7hw You can notice the 3 ratios they alternate throughout right at the start.

Only gripe I have about the episode is the gamorrean dudes fighting each other were just fat dudes wearing masks were the ones in jedi wore actual suits(or at least fake arms) that made them look more proportionate. The ones in mando look goofy with their oversized heads.

There's nothing unusual about him being able to communicate with them. They seem to convey a bit of kinship and respect between Mando and the Tuskens. They are a warrior culture who scrape and claw their own survival from harsh conditions and the misconceptions of outsiders. The fact that he respects them even though admitting they are raiders while he despises Jawas because they are opportunistic scavengers says plenty about Din and Mandolorians.

HerpicleOmnicron5 posted:It didn't directly advance the story in any way, nor appreciably challenge or change the character of the Mandalorian. While filler is not necessarily the best term for it, the main body of this episode is wholly standalone with no direct character hook other than the Boba Fett tease. God who gives a poo poo. Shows are better when given room to breathe and no always advance the A Plot. Side characters are fun. Side stories are fun.

Yeah, but in the first season he communicated in hand symbols (which they reciprocated), which to me signified that their language isn't speakable by one outside of their species since it's mostly screams/monster sounds. If he had communicated with them in their language in season 1, it would be less out of place, IMO.
