my favorite genre is stupid idiot fathers protecting their stupid idiot little children

Pedro Pascal isn't actually playing the character in person, Greef Karga's actor died, season 2's beautiful ending was made pointless, Gina carano got herself fired, the main villain was killed off, the darksaber plot amounted to nothing and it's increasingly obvious that fauvroni have no idea what to do with the show/plot/characters going forward

And they want to make a movie

ITS DONE GUYS OMG

This took forever but I'm really proud of it sooo.

If The Mandalorian & Grogu is a 120 minute movie about Grogu’s apprenticeship then I can accept this. But if they pull a “Somehow, Gideon returned” I’m fucking quitting Star Wars forever

The Mandalorian & Grogu, the movie helmed by Jon Favreau, hits theaters on May 22, 2026, marking Star Wars' return to the big screen after 7 years.

News came as part of a deluge of Disney release date announcements and shifting debuts. The studio revealed that its upcoming “Star Wars” movie, “The Mandalorian & Grogu” will hit theaters in 2026.

The film will likely continue storylines from the popular streaming series, possibly bringing back characters like Bo-Katan Kryze and Ahsoka Tano.

Directed and co-written by Favreau, The Mandalorian & Grogu promises an exciting new chapter in the Star Wars saga.

Did you hear?!?

The next Star Wars movie is going to be a movie adaptation of a show that's been solidly mediocre for most of its existence but happens to star two incredibly bankable, toy ready protagonists! And it's being directed by the guy whose last feature film directing credit is that soulless Lion King remake! Aren't you hyped?!? Star Wars on the big screen!!!

Ugh, okay, I don't want it. This is maybe the least interesting Star Wars movie that could be announced right now. I don't know if I really want to spend money to go see an extra long episode of a show that has completely abandoned being about characters.

Also! Isn't it just a little gross that The Mandalorian and Grogu (God I hate that title so fucking much) is announced less than a week after the far-right nerds of the Internet decided that Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, director of the upcoming New Jedi Order movie, was their villain of the week simply because she was a woman of color? How can you not read this as Lucasfilm being like "Oh shit, before we release the Star Wars movie directed by a woman, I guess we gotta distract the pissy racists with some boring sludge."

Let's make it a reality!

din djarin, once again, in his home depot dad “i can fix it myself” era

There He Goes

ITS ME IM BACK MWAHAHAHAHAHA

heres a lil short one from after i finished my homework

There he goes, as he wades into the Living Waters, Bo-Katan watching him intently, almost as if she’s watching to ensure he does it correctly. I look down at Grogu and smile; there goes his dad, becoming Mandalorian again. He coos and babbles in his little language before returning to the Mandalorian. I look up with him, watching the back of his beskar helmet as he recites his Creed. I smile momentarily as I take in what he’s doing, but then the realization hits me: I may never see his face again. I had seen it once when he took his helmet off to say goodbye to Grogu. A feeling bubbles up in my chest that I can’t put a name on, but I stifle it.

As he approaches the end of his Creed, the shiny beskar armor I’ve grown to find comfort in disappears underneath the waters. There he goes, deep into the cavern. A sharp yelp leaves my lips in fear. I watch as Bo-Katan jumps in after him, her being the only one equipped enough to go after him. Grogu lets out a pained squeal, the concern evident on his face. I run towards the water’s edge, careful not to step in, and attempt to look for him. I begin to shake as a million possibilities fill my head. Is he unconscious? Is he okay? Is this part of the atonement? All I can do is look on in fear, trembling as I do so. 

I then begin to think, why am I reacting this way? We had only worked together, nothing more. There was no way I could be feeling that for him. I start to dwell on the memories of the past, our first bounty, finding Grogu, saving Grogu, starting over. I go from having a few tears on my cheeks to full-on sobbing. I can’t lose him; there’s no way. He had saved me countless times, mentally and physically. He had become my rock, and now there was no denying it: I wanted to be his. 

And then, there he goes. Flying out of the water, being pulled by Bo-Katan. I rush to his side as he hits the ground, starting to look for injuries. He coughs up water and sits up shakily. His cold, covered gaze meets mine, and I try to look solemn. 

“I knew you’d be fine, didn’t doubt it for a second.”

Almost as if on cue, Grogu sighs and looks at me. He knows, and I do, too.

The Mandalorian will receive a theatrical film titled The Mandalorian & Grogu. The film will be directed by Jon Favreau, and produced by Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, and Dave Filoni. Production on the film will begin in 2024.

“I have loved telling stories set in the rich world that George Lucas created,” said Favreau. “The prospect of bringing the Mandalorian and his apprentice Grogu to the big screen is extremely exciting.” "Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have ushered into Star Wars two new and beloved characters, and this new story is a perfect fit for the big screen," added Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm.
