How do these episodes feel? Do they feel like Star Wars but smaller? Am I immersed in the world? What is worldbuilding like in these episodes? Star Wars to me always felt like a grand epic. Each trilogy began with our main characters in their isolated worlds, but as the trilogy began they were thrusted into adventures that took them to places and battles that had galactic importance. Each Star Wars movie had epic battles with dozens of different vehicles and starfighters that added so many layers to what was going on on screen. With this show being on the small screen, I was curious yet nervous about how it would translate to something much smaller in scale. The clone wars and rebels had the benefit of being animated, so while the graphics were amazing, it wouldn’t cost a shit ton of money to create large scale battles and locations. When I realized that the final climactic battle of the season was going to be a man with a jetpack fighting one tie fighter, I instantly thought about this shot from the force awakens teaser where we are getting tie fighters left and right. Was this a concern, yes but a small one. So how did the mandalorian handle the budget of a TV Series and not a movie? Well darn tudint the series did a fantastic job. From the very first shot the mandalorian sets the tone of what kind of show this is. Every Star Wars movie has begun with a shot in space, panning down towards an entire planet, showing off the scale of the star wars franchise. The mandalorian begins with a shot of a device that looks like an HDMI adapter. Now this is not a bad thing. Jon Favreau knows this show is going to be significantly smaller in scale, so let’s set that tone right away. Also the scenery of the worlds that we see aren’t these giant ass city planets that have a moving pixel everywhere. They are just these small run of the muck towns that are filled with everyday people. And I’m not talking about the bozos like me who have a 9-5 job, I’m talking about people who have to work their ass off everyday just to put food on the table. Star Wars has always had a solid grasp of making their settings feel really old school while still feeling like it’s in a universe with planet killers and laser swords and wide boys. In the first 15 minutes our main character goes to 2 different bars. And these aren’t the trashy bars you would go to if you’re a horny 19 year old college kid trying to find some hot ass. People aren’t dancing around bopping out to some random ass song while you feel like the king of the world drinking a natty lite. These are western bars. You walk on and only the hardest people are chilling there drinking. Maybe there’s some classy music playing and there’s definitely going to be a fight. There’s a great quote by Jon Favreau that proves why he gets Star Wars so right. He doesn’t take inspiration from star wars itself, but the things that inspired star wars. The kurosawa's and the flash gordans of the world. You know how when you watched the force awakens for the first time and they went to takodana to that bar in Maz’s castle and you were like, oh shit this is basically the mos eisley cantina but in 2015. You don’t get that vibe in the mandalorian. This is just a regular bar that seems like it belongs in the star wars universe. Another thing I love about the scenery here is the diversity. That’s right I just dropped the D word. I hope you are now triggered. The original Mos Eisley cantina was so awesome because there were all these different aliens. Some looked like humans kinda, and others looked like some wacko shit. I like how we see some familiar aliens and some new ones. This is where I think the sequel trilogy messed up a little bit.
