Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian

In this series of documentaries about the mandalorian it isn't only about the mandalarian, it is about the whole story behind star wars and the purpose of star wars. The 2nd episode blew me away, Dave Filoni talks about the connection of the prequels to the original trilogy and the ark of Anakin skywalker. This is a must-see for Star Wars fans.

(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.

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!

Get a feel for the durectir and producer team. If you like the show this is worth a watch.

Thank God without Kennedy. Like the wick witch of the west she does appear here and there for a selfie of sorts.

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.
