Board 8 > The Mandalorian Season 2 premieres tonight

(+) Yeah! (+)

Not read previous posts as I'm behind but came in here as I'm frustrated with how I just got spoiled.

Someone tagged me on a non Mandalorian post on Facebook
I hit back to main feed
A fucking sponsored post has a massive spoiler at the top of my feed in the title. It was also dated over 12 hours old so they didn't even wait a day.

That blows. But totally not unexpected.

I had luke spoiled by a meme on the reddit front page. Was still a great moment but definitely stole some thunder

i started a rewatch of season 2, what are these little creatures?



from the season premiere. my first thought was womp rats but they're too small and without the proper fangs? normally there's people cataloging every single thing that pops up in this show but i can't see anyone mention these guys

Scurriers.

oh rad, thank you

i'm really fucking salty i had the big reveal spoiled for me by the fact that twitter decided to show something that someone i follow "liked" from someone else that i don't follow

GODDAMMIT

You can turn that feature of Twitter off

i have a vague recollection of doing this but can't figure out where to check

maybe someone i follow retweeted it? i backed the fuck out of the app the moment i saw the image but either way GODFUCKING DAMMIT

You really shouldn't get on social media following a big event like this if you don't want to risk spoilers. People just don't give a shit if they're ruin someone else's experience. It's sad but reality.

---

Yeah i know it's my own fault in the end but arrrrrgh

Just saw the finale (and was able to avoid any spoilers somehow). Really great last couple of episodes. I dont recall feeling that connected to a tv show in a while.

Makes me think of Grogus future though. Is his fate now to die at Ben Solos hand?

---

I cant imagine he does

---

grogu actually kills ben solo and is secretly kylo ren the whole time

Yeah I've learned that people really don't care if they spoil things for other people and feel the need to post publicly about spoilers immediately. It's become a standard for me to avoid most things online when I don't see something important live until I'm caught up. Even here for example when a new Smash character is revealed, there's always a topic title immediately spoiling the reveal.

I feel like the spoiler craze started in the early 2000s and since then has just been a growing problem. I think the first time I recall it happening on a large scale was Dumbledoor dying in harry potter.

I pulled up the video of that one guy yelling it at the crowd (the you bitch! one) and showed it to my eight-year-old daughter after she finished HBP. She didnt understand why anyone would want to be mean like that.

---

HP spoiler was so widely spread specifically to troll since it was an early leak in advance of the release while these days it's so often just from people being so eager to get the story out

---

I had The Force Awakens spoiled for me on reddit on a subreddit that was completely unrelated in the comments of a post that was even more unrelated.

---

Book of Boba Fett confirmed to be a spinoff, both it and Mandalorian Season 3 will air December 2021.

---

Excellent

---

Fuck yes

---

Apparently a Luke series is in the works set in the timeline of Mando

so maybe there won't be more Grogu in Mando, but we will see more elsewhere

---

idk how i feel about uncanny valley: the show

although luke looked much better than tarkin and leia, when he moved his head to look down at grogu it was really a "woof" moment for me

---

Honestly the effect looked great to me, I really thought it was a new actor who just looked a lot like a younger Hamill until I read about it later

---

i think the plan is Sebastian Stan

Hamill already gave his okay on it

Youre joking

---

I'm in the same boat as GANON tbqh

well, I didn't have to read about it later but it took me a good minute of staring and questioning just what exactly young Luke looked like

---

if they do a luke show they have to recast right? doing a whole show of deepfake luke would be a nightmare

it took me so far out of the scene. i'd much rather they just left his hood up or something

---

I thought it looked fine but yeah they cant have Mark Hamill with digital alterations for a whole series.

---

Yeah I thought it looked great too. I wasn't staring at it trying to see through it though

---

It felt pretty obvious that it was CGI to me. Not exactly terrible, but obvious.

---

The voice sounded really off to me, too.

---

I thought it looked miles better than CGI Tarkin but yeah a whole show of that might be a little rough. As much as I'd like to see a Luke show in this time period it sounds tricky to be honest.

---

we can rebuild him

we have the technology

---

I think I'm more concerned about the actual plot of a Luke show. Is it just him training kids or trying to setup a new temple we know is going to fall in 15 years? Are they going to flirt around showing Han and Leia or recast them too?

I have faith in Favreau and Filoni but I wouldn't even know where to start if I was making this show.

yeah I was left wondering whether that was really Mark Hamill or not until the credits

Its going to being setting up the retcon of the ST.

---

Also, I wonder if we only notice this because we know Mark Hamil doesnt look like that anymore. If they used this technology to create a random guest character of the week without saying anything, would anyone notice?

---

this would be perfect for a kyle katarn show



---

I had a similar problem with Ahsoka. The render of her looked like Rosario Dawson more than Ahsoka.

---

So many spin-offs, like, what, six? They should focus on doing one or two shows really good.

What if they focus on doing six shows really good?

Are you under the impression that one team is doing all the shows?

Wait, was Ahsoka CGI? Thought it was Rosario in a costume.

Edit: yeah it was a costume. Wtf are you talking about

I assume he's talking about the credits in the renders. She did look weird in that.
