I actually really don't like that - the fact that they're using basic stock "baby noise" sound effects makes it feel cheap. Like placeholder audio they forgot to adjust in post or something. Everything else about Baby Yodel is 💯 though. I would lay down my life for that boy
Might wanna check on that
Nope, there was basically nothing between them lol
I think a lot of this is due to how short everything is. The longest episode still being under the standard runtime of dramatic tv shows hurts it greatly imo

What is the budget for this show? It seems very cheap for such a premier title.
Liking it so far. Give me feelings of samurai jack
I don't think this show looks anywhere near as good as GoT.What? Are you insane? It's the best looking show on TV, it looks straight from the films.
It's budget is the highest for any TV show ever, about $25 million per episode. Only GoT was hitting near those numbers in terms of budget in its final season. How does the show look cheap?
Someone in here said something about rhe dialog feeling too contemporary in this and I think that's true lol
The woman barkeep in particular didn't feel like a character from a Star Wars movie. Her dialog and performance just didn't fit. Also the set design felt like SW Disneyland and not a authentic setting in a SW movie.
You're friggin nuts lol
There is too much going on in each episode for a 30 to 40 minute episode. They've been on three planets now? They need to find a plot and stick with it.
I wouldn't guess in a million years that this show has a comparable budget to GoT.

For one thing, The Mandalorian doesn't coffee cups and/or water bottles on the set.
I agree with this. It's the cheapest looking high budget so I've seen.
It's only fair considering this is in its first season.Yea ok. Post shots from the earliest seasons with the lowest budgets and worst sets.
DING DING DING
I... don't think it is if they have similar budgets and those GoT shots are from like how many years ago?

Um, they have a plot. Protect Baby Yoda.
This is not going to be some heavy plot show. Baby Yoda is a great framing device to explore the SW universe and tell character stories.
Look, I get you hate GoT and think D&D are hacks. I think the sets in GoT and location shooting best anything I've seen from this show so far. I think Mando looks good but I have found most of the exteriors, like the planetary settings, to be generic and uninteresting. Also I'm really not interested in getting into a screenshot battle. You're entitled to your opinion.Shall I post pictures from the final season of GoT which consists of the same three sets so they could save budget for the CGI battles? Mando is building new elaborate sets each week with new locations, tons of exterior shooting.
Because you expected a different narrative and the show made no such promise to you.

the main problem i'm finding with the show and it's something i'm surprised so many sci fi/fantasy shows get right, considering how difficult it is, is how stilted or wooden some scenes can be with supporting characters. it's pretty hard to make this dialogue and setting feel "naturalistic" but as an actor, you gotta pull that off. I'm watching a lot of scenes and it's not necessarily the writing, though i think that has a part to play, but it's how the actors are delivering these lines. it's not natural enough and it comes off wooden often.
they're obviously going with a western style little dialogue stockiness but sometimes i kinda wish there was even less of the dialogue. Oddly enough, Pedro, who has to wear a helmet the entire time, is delivering the lines the best in the series. So, there's that.
granted, these folks were just simple farmers and on Endor, it was hundreds of rabid blood thirsty ewoks that took em down.The whole making the AT-ST as a lethal unstoppable threat in this episode is undercut by the fact that we've already seen it taken out in Return of the Jedi.
I want it. This Ep was the best scored IMO
That acoustic mando theme. Ooof.
They have. I was listening to it on Spotify last night.
If it wasnt for baby Yoda and the Mandalorian this show wouldn't have much going for it.
Lmao.So, basically if the show didn't have its main characters it wouldn't have a show?
I don't know but it didn't seem that high budget to me. Like atst looked like it was lifted from clone wars. Same with last fight in episode. Everything felt so meh.What? Are you insane? It's the best looking show on TV, it looks straight from the films.

I mean, he's not wrong, is he? Checkmate, atheist.So, basically if the show didn't have its main characters it wouldn't have a show?
