The Mandalorian
Blue Kitty:
I was looking forward to seeing Ashoka Tano but I felt like today's episode was kind of underwhelming even with that (click to show/hide)Grogu and Thrawn reveal
LeeC:
I actually loved this episode. It kept in the western/samurai feel of the show, gave us backstory on a key character and had 3 huge reveals:
(click to show/hide)
1) The Child's name and history
2) Grand Admiral Thrawn is still alive and kicking
3) We're going to Tython. MUTHA FAWKIN TYTHON! Homeworld and birthplace of the Jedi from the pre-Disney era. It was the starting zone in the mmorpg The Old Republic for Jedi characters.
I was whelmed, and hyped for where we're going.
Case:
So I'm just watching Ep1, Season 1 and ... I'm pretty sure Werner Herzog is consciously exaggerating certain 'German' mannerisms in his pronounciation. It's actually a bit grating, tbh. I'm wondering how this sounds to Anglophones? Could it be that he does that because he thinks this sounds ... badass ... to Anglo ears?
To me, it just sounds ... well, like someone consciously exaggerating stereotypically 'German' bad pronounciation habits (or rather, what Anglophones think is a 'typically German' pronounciation). Not threatening. Not intimidating. If anything, it sounds like he badly needs to go to the restroom.

More 'cliche villain,' I think.

Ok, I'm sold. This is great SW fun.
(Han still drew first, though)

Hmmh. Still think like he sounds like he's holdiing in a wee.
