Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian

Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian is sort of a group of DVD featurettes transformed into series form as it takes an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes process behind and creation of the show The Mandalorian. This was interesting.

Givien that this was a highly expensive and ambitious show, going for a movie-like quality, you learn about the tremendous amount of effort given to make this all come together, including one really innovative technique.

Be prepared that there isn't as much behind-the-scenes footage in this as you'd think. A lot of this is the showrunners, producers, directors, writers, actors, etc. sitting at a table and talking about the show. I felt this would slow things down, but the roundtable discussion format runs pretty smoothly. Everyone involved shows passion for what they did. And don't get me wrong, there is some interesting behind-the-scenes footage. It's more prevalent in the later episodes when the focus is more on the look and sound of Star Wars.

Showrunners Jon Favreau (director of such films as Elf, Jungle Book, and Iron Man) and Dave Filoni (known for his work on the Star Wars animated shows) sort of run the narration and discussion and provide an infectious love for the world of Star Wars. Expect to be surprised by a couple of big name directors on this.

Overall, if you're not a big on behind-the-scenes stuff, this isn't going to change your mind. Still, I think fans of The Mandalorian or Star Wars in general may appreciate this.

This was a super exciting way to introduce us to how the Mandalorian was put together. It's clear by watching the series that they but a lot of time into every single detail, whether that was costumes, production design, visual effects, sound editing and mixing, and so much more. There is a lot of joy in watching this series and getting to hear about a shared love of Star Wars from all these wonderful filmmakers.

(3.5 out of 5 stars)

A lot of fun to see the directors and there hard work on bringing each episode to life. A lot of fun if you care about behind the scenes. I did feel like this documentary ran a little too long.

Everything about this documentary is perfectly made. But i'd like to praise about last part of Chapter 2:Legacy when Dave Filoni explains about Qui-Gon and Anakin and what's the purpose of Star Wars to exist. And why is he doing this. Is not about lasers, starships, lightsabers battles and all that stuff. The original idea as conceived by George is family, to give hope, to kids specially and to see how deeply Filoni is connected and understand that legacy and how truthful he is to George's vision is what had made this and all his (Filoni) star wars productions so successful.

Season 2 of 'The Mandalorian' is coming this October. But in the meantime, since today is Star Wars Day, we're taking you behind the scenes of one of the best shows of 2019 in this newest docuseries on Disney+!

The show is about how they made this fan-favorite show, such as the crew, including the show's creator Jon Favreau, episode directors Dave Filoni, Taika Waititi (who is also in the cast), Rick Famuyiwa, Deborah Chow, and Bryce Dallas Howard, the cast, such as Pedro Pascal, Carl Weathers, Gina Carano, Giancarlo Esposito, Emily Swallow, and more, including interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and round table conversations.

This is one great docuseries to see for Star Wars fans!
