The Mandalorian — This Is The Way Star Wars Should Feel

Ahead of The Mandalorian and Grogu, the Movie Marathon Podcast rewatches all three seasons of The Mandalorian, a show that reinvigorated Star Wars while also bringing some real lows. First we talk about the state of Star Wars and our love for the franchise. Then we do the full production history: Jon Favreau's lone gunslinger pitch, Dave Filoni bringing the George Lucas playbook into live action, and the creation of The Volume, the 75-foot LED stage running on Unreal Engine that changed the way television and film gets made. Then a season-by-season breakdown: what made seasons one and two work, whether moving key episodes into The Book of Boba Fett was a good idea, and where season three lost the way. Plus what the Binge Bros are expecting from the Mando movie. We have spoken.
