devin.pike.1989 1,546 Posted November 12, 2019 How appropriate does the show seem for a 6 year old and 8 year old? I am thinking long the lines of gratuitous violence or particularly frightening imagery. I mean it's star wars so it can't be that bad but I thought I would ask.

No swearing, graphic violence or major terror. The violence so far is punching, kicking etc or else implied. No gore. Some talk of bowel movements and mating, but will probably go over their heads. 1 buckero0 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devin.pike.1989 1,546 Posted November 13, 2019 Finally watched it with my wife on the laptop! I absolutely loved it! It was like a blend of Sergio Leone, OT Star Wars, Breaking Bad and Yojimbo. If I had to describe the tone of the show in a word, I would say "deliberate". The references and easter eggs were tasteful and reasonably subtle. I can't wait for the next episode!

TauntaunScout 4,276 Posted November 13, 2019 Just signed up for a 7 day trial. If I like it my Paypal will be charged $70 for the year and my wife can't complain. I'll watch it later today. Actually if I like it I'll cancel, have my wife sign up for a 7 day trial, and THEN pay for a year using my eBay money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TauntaunScout 4,276 Posted November 13, 2019 Just watched the first episode. Loved it. It joins Rogue One as proof that New Wars can be done well. Who knows how long it will stay this good. 4 1 Lochlan, Digitalfiends, Chickenpuppy and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ArcticJedi 154 Posted November 13, 2019 Okay, It was as good as I had hoped! It has some great world building, and the characters were a bit different than I was expecting. How do You make a spoilers tab so I can really express my thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same here, but with The Death Star. About 1/50 scale. Fully armed and operational. Would be great for Holiday parties. 1 lunitic501 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forgettable, would probably best describe my opinion on the movie, as after watching yesterday, today i only remember that i loved IG, didn't like music much and strongly disliked that it seems, mandalorians wear helmets 24/h, which i found idiotic idea.
