The fact that he says they were murdered plain as day goes beyond just saying RIP in all fairness. He could have posted saying he completely disagrees with the verdict and thinks an injustice was done. Fair enough, completely valid opinion.

However publicly stating a man completely exonerated by the courts after a lengthy public trial is a murderer, and then posting photos, one of which is of a convicted paedophile, as if they were some sort of completely innocent victims were selected at random....bit much.

NIMAN

Since this is 'Merica, no doubt the guy who did the shooting will sue him for calling him a murderer.

Anyone else more than a little disappointed that the very original bump wasn't cos of a trailer?

Irrespective of his use of the word "murdered", he's not lauding anybody, nor is there any "eulogizing" either. So this tweet isn't some sort of smoking gun in any way and certainly nothing to contrast against Carano's sacking. If Pascal wants to go further with his opinion on the matter then we might have more to consider.

Should he keep his mouth shut? Probably. But then again, I'd be of the opinion that most, if not all, of these celebs should keep off of Twitter completely because due to its limitations, everyone ends up sounding like a twat on it eventually.

Any previous convictions for the people he killed has absolutely nothing to do with if they were murdered or not.

How is this shyte anything to do with the Mandolorian?

Liamalone

I never said it did, however a court, through a lengthy public process, has absolutely cleared him of any wrong doing according to the laws of the US, let alone murder. They were not murdered. They were killed, lawfully according to the court, as a result of their actions.

So to post pictures of the deceased, claim they were murdered when a court has decided they were not unlawfully killed, let alone murdered, is a step too far, particularly when one of the deceased is a sex offender with convictions for rape of a minor.

This will be the last I post on this thread as obviously there's no sense in bringing this debate onto a Mandalorian thread, but I feel it's ill-advised by Pedro Pascal and not particularly appropriate for him to make such claims.

In your defence against me stating that you were trying to link previous and unrelated convictions of the person killed and that that somehow justified their killing, you then state that you didn't say that the previous conviction justified the killing... Then you immediately mention the previous conviction again and use it to justify the killing?!?!?

Whatever about Pedro Pascal's political views, please leave yours outside of this thread.

Season 3? It won't be out this year, you may be thinking of the Boba Fett series and that's coming this season all right. Not sure about times of day Disney+ release things though.

8am for Disney plus stuff usually.

I googled “boba fett boards.ie” and this was the first search result - I saw “Disney Streaming” and and did t notice it was for Mando

flazio

Dropping in on this thread in case there's anybody here who had given up on Book of Boba Fett, the latest episode is pretty much a new episode of The Mandalorian, events from BoBF aren't referenced until the very end. You're going to need to see this before the start of season 3.

Great episode I love the way they show Mandolore and the back story

Tony EH

It was a great episode. The only problem with it is that it was in a different (and very poor) show.

Agent Coulson

Christopher Lloyd joins the cast for season 3.

Tony EH

Is Doc Brown helping the Mando go back in time to erase the Book of Boba Fett?

pixelburp

My first thought was if it was a voice or physical role - cos that's the kinda show it is 😁

Slydice

I reckon he could do a baddie if he wanted.

Agent Coulson

Season 3 arrives February 2023.

Or should that really be season 3 B since Boba was the real season 3.

Or was Boba 2-B?

Slydice

2-B R2 not 2-B?

May they can just get rid of the boba episodes that do not have mando or baby yoda in them and just splice them into this i dont think anyone would really miss the boba stuff

Possible Trek/Wars crossover?

No more of a travesty than pointlessly resurrecting Boba really...

I'd say many here already know them, but the "Pitch Meeting" comedy series had a quite funny episode on The Mandalorian. The series often manages to thread the needle between criticism of a thing, and outright shítting on it.

Baby Yoda Character “Completely Stolen” From ‘Gremlins,’ Says Director Joe Dante

“I think the longevity of [the films] is really key to this one character [Gizmo], who is essentially like a baby,” director Joe Dante recently told the San Francisco Chronicle of the star of his classic Gremlins films. “Which brings me, of course, to the subject of Baby Yoda, who is completely stolen and is just out-and-out copied. Shamelessly, I would think.”

It’s quite a charge, but the two cuddly creatures with extraordinary powers, big eyes and expressive ears do look a lot alike when seen side by side.

He might have a very valid point.

But yoda senior was out before gizmo so who’s copying who?
