    I had that thought, too. But I really really don’t want that so I didn’t bring it up haha

    George doesn’t collect any money when they use existing characters. This was a rumor that’s run pretty rampant, but Disney got all those rights when they paid him 4 billion.

    Edit: if anything he may get some royalties from being a part of the writers guild, but it’s nothing like “25% of profits when an OT character is used” like some YouTubers like to spout conspiracy theories about.

    “The greatest teacher, failure is”

    Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying. If that is the case then I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if the Mandalorian is boba. Def not hoping for it tho

    No problem, I had heard the same rumor so I figured I could pass what I knew along.

    I wouldn’t have a problem with him being Boba, but I don’t think they’re gonna go that way.

    There’s a scene in the new trailer with the super battle droid. It could be present day in regard to the show, but I wonder if it’s a flashback to the clone wars and the kid in the shot is The Mandalorian as a child. I’ll attach screenshots.

    Super battle droids!

    Naturally the next question:

    Where are those droidekas?!

    “The greatest teacher, failure is”

    I’d welcome droidekas coming back any time. Imagine if one got reprogrammed and became a consistent villain character as a henchman or something.

    The Mandalorian is not Fett. Pedro Pascal is a light-skinned Chilean actor. Boba Fett is a dark-skinned Māori. You can stop thinking about that possibility.

    And Boba Fett isn't even a real Mandalorian!

    Also, if Boba were to pop up again, wouldn't it make more sense for it to be Temuera Morrison? He's a clone....

    An aged down Temuera Morrison or Daniel Logan are the only choices here.

    Would Morrison even need to be aged down? How old is Boba in ESB/ROTJ? And how long after that does Mandalorin take place?

    He’d be early 40s

    Hmm. I like the idea of Boba as an older, grizzled Deathstroke type bounty hunter.

    He didn't look like a spring chicken in Aquaman but I suppose he could play early 40s if they used a lot of makeup. Personally I think you keep Daniel Logan as Boba as loyalty to the actor.

  14. Just watched this past weeks resistance and man what a boring episode. Definition of filler. Bummer because the last few have been fairly strong.

    The last one definitely felt like filler.

    Binge Mode is fucking killing it on their Star Wars podcasts. I just started listening to them and they're my favorite.

    I've been loving it too. I did not expect this big of a deep dive, but it's been awesome.

    Honestly I'd never heard of them before the Star Wars deep dives and I'm going back thru their Harry Potter book deep-dives because I don't have time to read thru HP again and really felt like it. Mallory and Jason are smart and entertaining, really love them as podcasters.

    Mallory and Jason* (just so ya know). I’ve been loving the Star Wars ones too. Doing HP at a little slower rate since I’m covering the books on my podcast as I have time to re-read them. Managed to get through four of them, but only listened to the Sorcerer’s Stone episodes of Binge Mode so far.

    Thanks, I edited it. I knew I'd gotten it wrong.

  24. Oh damn I didn't realize that came out today. I'll have to go pick it up. Still working through Galaxy's Edge.

    I finished the Master and Apprentice audio book last night and I highly recommend it.

    “The greatest teacher, failure is”

    I started Resistance Reborn on audible and had to return it. I loved Black Spires narration but for some reason didn’t like this one. Maybe it’s a male voice doing Rey and Leias voice? It kind of was distracting. Am gonna do text even though it’ll take longer.
