The Mandalorian Half-Hour - Chapter 21: The Pirate
Added 2023-03-30 20:20:05 +0000 UTCCAUTION: SPOILERS ABOUND (OBVIOUSLY)
On an all-new episode of The Mandalorian Half-Hour, the guys are hitting the high seas... but in space!
In "Chapter 21: The Pirate," which was written by Jon "The Favs" Favreau and directed by Peter "Oscar-Winning Co-Director of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" Ramsey, this episode sees the great city on Nevarro briefly taken over by some dastardly space pirates. Was Greef Karga playing Star Wars Sim City at the beginning? How cool was it seeing Zeb from Rebels pounding them back at a bar? Is R5-D4 a narc for the New Republic? How great were all the day-time battles you could actually see? And what in the world is going on with that nefarious Moff Gideon, huh? PLUS: A lotta Sim City talk...
The Mandalorian Half-Hour is a WHM show where the guys recap every episode of the Disney+ series, The Mandalorian! Thank you for continuing to be a loyal Patreon subscriber. We couldn't do it without you!

2023-04-11 20:30:15 +0000 UTCHere's a compromise. If we cover it, maybe you just experience AHSOKA through our eyes only? lol. Honestly though, the fact that it's dropping in August doesn't bode well for a series recap because August is literally the only month of the year we take a break—except for the year-round established Patreon offerings which will not stop. I think you might be safe, Paul! - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:29:54 +0000 UTCI was wondering about that, because I've noticed that every week thus far and was wondering if they were supposed to be playing Din or were they just some other Mandos wandering around? - Andrew

2023-04-01 01:41:55 +0000 UTCPlease, WHM, do not cover Ahsoka. I really don’t want to have to watch that show. I’m begging you. Please give me break. 🙏🏼

2023-03-31 14:35:53 +0000 UTCWhen I saw those pirates shoot at that disgusting salacious crumb tree, I cheered, I shouted, I fist pumped the air, I cried, I stood and cheered. Nothing prepares you for this.

2023-03-31 13:52:45 +0000 UTCSome of the cartoons like Bo-Katan and Ahsoka Tano have translated great over to live action. Unfortunately, the other 98% look like 💩 and need to stay in Cool World.

2023-03-31 12:40:35 +0000 UTCHey guys! I'm the Navarro townsperson BG dude from last season's MHH. They cut nearly every shot I was in S2, and I found out it was partly because I have a shaved head which is "too modern for Star Wars." This season they made me a gleep glop by painting me mustard yellow, adding a blue face tattoo, and giving me a turban for my head. The set was a bit more chill this season regarding crew and security, so I had a chance to carry my sketchbook and do some BTS-type doodling which I'll share w/ y'all once the season wraps if you're interested. This episode was a ton of fun, and I noticed they used the take where one of the townsfolk accidentally fell when she was running from the pirates, and a couple of us ran back to help her xD

2023-03-31 01:01:32 +0000 UTCDunno if this is a thing in America but google “Terran Trade Authority”, 70s sci fi art books that seem to be the inspiration for this pirate ship. I think some of the artists worked on Jodorowsky’s Dune as well

2023-03-31 00:18:27 +0000 UTCAre we taking wagers on which covert Mandolorian takes off his helmet and reveals himself to be Moff Gideon; hiding in plain sight the whole time?
