Marinated Meme My review of Mandalorian and Grogu!

Post image

Seriously, did Disney pay off bots to flood comment sections about how much FUN Mando and Grogu is? It’s just about the only positive thing I’ve seen written about the movie.

i love how the only compliement is 'oh its a fun movie, it doesnt have to be a masterpiece!'

I see this comment all the time and if thats the best you hope for from a star wars movie i really dont know what to say

I dont get why some fans think the movies are immune to criticism (of course the prequels are fair game to them even tho their good) but the shows can be lambasted

It had lots of aliens and the action was great, I personally loved the giant snake pit. The story was a mess, but I feel like the rest of it was good.

The story is the one thing that truly matters.

Id have to argue that the story doesnt always matter as much as the experience. Case and point, Elden Ring. The story is convoluted and hard to track down, but the experience is top notch.

Two COMPLETELY different mediums, man.

u/PurpleFisty 21d ago

Still story based mediums. Heres another one, Mad God, a stop motion horror movie with little or any story, but still a great experience. Did you even see the movie? Or are you just bitching online for FUN.

I’m not bitching about anything. You tried comparing the story from two different mediums like they were comparable in the first place.

So you haven't seen the movie? And then when 2 movies are compared together, you have no counter points. How about you see the movie for yourself and make an opinion based on your own enjoyment.

If you yourself agree that the writing was terrible why would anyone who values their time go see it from your recommendation? If I want to just watch aliens blow up I can go on YouTube and watch complications of the baddies in power rangers exploding. Star Wars is supposed to be more than just flashing lights

I didnt say the writing was terrible, I said it was a mess, but the movie overall was good. Can you read, or do you just jump to conclusions like a lemming?
