The Mandalorian
Lone Ranger Mandalorian and Yoda Cub is excellent so far. It’s definitely the best thing Disney has done with Star Wars, and probably the best thing since the original trilogy. We’ve had years in which the female and the effeminate have increasingly run all things sci-fi and fantasy, and we finally get something now that’s more representative the masculinity of Western Culture. The sparsity of dialogue fits the genre(s), though you can’t help but think that Disney knows it’s walking a tightrope with Star Wars right now, that they’ve alienated most of their male fans, and the less that is said in the show, the less likely they are to say something Leftist and foolish, something that will cost them more money in the end. You can’t help but watch the show with some skepticism though, looking for the worn out Commie shoe to drop. I’m expecting the Yoda cub to be a girl and waiting for the first transgender droid that identifies as a Wookie to show up.
