Not really a surprise for anybody even passingly familiar with Bill's show. Well, that's The Fandom Menace's latest "Lucasfilm civil war" videos for the week sorted

I like Bill Burr, but wasn't Gina warned about her social media behaviour several times? Any job even if it's not in the public eye, there is only so many times they can ask before they cut you loose Warned by Favreau, warned by Pedro, warned by Disney, and finally warned by her talent agency. By all accounts she wasn't asked to stop, just to cool it with the inflammatory rhetoric. She got four chances, and blew it. It's not like Bill's even defending what she said. He's called out similar comments as dumb as f*** in the past, he's just of the "I don't agree with what you said but I'll defend your right to say it" mindset, even if that's painfully naïve for a guy his age and totally ignoring the right of people - in this case Disney - to choose not to associate with people they disagree with.

It's just so ironic because it's Disney. John Boyega poster and live-action Mulan thanking the people who ran the detention camps near where it was filmed notwithstanding, and Pedro's comments calling a section of people something I really can't mention on this board and the hypocrisy of him keeping his job and Carano getting fired.
Sorry, just had to say that in this thread. I'll go back to keeping quiet now.

Good: We're talking about Mandalorian again in this thread.
Bad: It's about THIS topic again.
I forget if I said this, but....believe what you want to believe. I agree that we should stop verbally (and worse) hurting each other because of that. Of course, how you put that wish matters a lot too...hence this whole issue.

I'm sorta wondering what characters will pop back up in a future season(s) and which characters are gone or moved on to other potential Star Wars shows. For that matter, I wonder how many more episodes of this there even will and where the Mando's story ends because of they way the universe and characters around him feel like they have stories to tell that don't involve him in the slightest.
Like will the Boba Fett thing be about the Dark Saber and Mandalore or will that take place on the Mandalorian?!? WHERE'S SABINE, I WANT LIVE ACTION SABINE!!!! Ha.
There was my attempt to steer the conversation lololololol.

I actually thought that Sasha Banks would've played an older Sabine instead of an original character like Koska. Sabine during Mandalorian's timeline would be about Sasha's age.

I have a feeling that Bill Burrs character won’t be seen again. Not because of current situations, I just think the character served his purpose and ran its course.
Moff Gideon really never felt like a “big bad” to me so I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s done too, or makes a brief appearance to only get betrayed by a real antagonist.
That guy who had Bobas armour really was just there to get that ball rolling
Luke I hope is done. What we got was good enough to make me die happy so let’s leave it at that.
I’d be fine with Frog Lady making an appearance but she served her purpose...which wasn’t much.
Really I can only see Bo Katan, maybe Sasha Banks (she really only popped the wrestling crowd and I don’t remember her character even getting her name mentioned) and Carl Weathers. O
Grogu is the one that really does need to come back because a large portion of the audience is going to be just constantly asking “where’s Grogu”. I think the show will suffer not having him. I say this having watched the entire series with two casual fans. Their interest went way down when Grogu wasn’t the focal point.

When I heard she was cast in a Star Wars thing I immediately thought she was gonna be Sabine... But that might just be the power of her hair coloring game corrupting my thinking.

I say this having watched the entire series with two casual fans. Their interest went way down when Grogu wasn’t the focal point. I see what you are saying about what the audience wants, but Grogu's story also sort of feels complete. Like I don't know how you bring him back and then don't have to bring back (the probably expensive to CG) Luke. That and from what the show sort of presents it would seem his species advances at a slow rate, so there isn't really a story of him growing in power to be had... I would imagine.
If I were to guess, I would imagine that Mando gets some sort of new companion or they go head first into the Mandalore stuff. It seems to be the only real plot point that has an opening to be explored at this point.

Just here to say that my wife said she'd cancel Disney+ and burn down Disney Land if Grogu is gone

Hold on I'm asking "if he goes all Anakin "Youngling Slayer 9000" and it improves the story going into Force Awakens, I might be able to handle it" If you haven't figured it out, my wife forces me to show her the best half dozen Prequel Memes daily.

Giancarlo Esposito said in an interview that they’ve barely scratched the surface of Moff Gideon’s story so I’d guess we see more of him going forward

Did they ever mentioned what happened to that other Mandalorian dude that was with Bo Katan and Sasha Banks in their first episode?

He redeemed himself, made peace with Mando, and we got a glimpse of where his true rage came from. His character can lay low and have a simple life.

Don't hold your breath for Benedict Cumberbatch as Thrawn.

Don't hold your breath for Benedict Cumberbatch as Thrawn. He also totally wasn't playing Khan either.
