How I realized I was over Star Wars completely

Bad Batch kicked it into high gear this week.

GREGOR!!!

Watching "Visions". Not my thing, to be honest. I guess I was hoping for expecting more tentacle porn.

I watched the first three episodes last night. Mildly interesting. A step stool above Meh.

"Love & Rathtars"?

I watched the first episode only, so far. I thought it was really cool, very Kurosawa vibe.

[jjreason]

The first one stands head & shoulders above 2 & 3. Apparently there are at least 2 more good ones but I haven't gone back to it yet.

[Tom Foolery]

Yeah, 1 and 5 were the decent ones so far.
Gonna try to watch the final three tonight.

[vynsane]

2 was silly, but fun. 3 was okay. 4 was AWESOME, strong Studio Ghibli vibe.

[jjreason]

4 was good, then 5 was even better - best one for me at this point with 4 to go.

[Tom Foolery]

4 was good, but it didn’t feel very Star Wars-y to me until like the final two minutes.

[jjreason]

Didn't care for the look of the T0-B1 episode, it reminded me of the "Little Prince" book we had to read for french class back in the day. Ugh.

The Elder was pretty good though. I started the bunny planet one but tapped out immediately when I saw they expected me to pay attention for 20 whole minutes. Give me a break, people.

"The Elder" is my favorite by far. They're all good, some great even, but that one? Wow.

"Lop and Ochô" is so much better than it looks like it would be. I also read the creators asked if there were any rabbitlike humanoid aliens or if they needed to make one up, were told about Jaxxon, and decided to make the protagonist a subspecies of the same species. (Apparently they didn't want her to be green.)

Also T0-B1 is such a blatant Astro Boy homage on every level, right down to his name. Not complaining; Astro Boy is awesome.

[vynsane]

I still think "The Village Bride" was my favorite due to the Ghibli feel, followed closely by "The Elder", "The Ninth Jedi", "Akakiri", and "The Duel".

One of the local radio stations plays old Casey Kasem's American Top 40 on the weekends. Saturdays are from the 80s, and Sundays are from the 70s. I just happened to listen to part of it this morning. Meco Monardo–Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band was #12 on the 11/5/77 show. I had completely forgot about that song. I vaguely remember hearing it on the radio when I was little.

[vynsane]

Disney/Lucasfilm decided that i was such a superfan that they're dropping "The Book of Boba Fett" on my birthday.

[anarky]

The Book of Boba Fett.

Wow.

Who expected Hondo to show up and say, "Make love to me like your father used to, like we did on the beach in Malibu, you silly monkey man"?
