can we talk about the Dark Saber for a second, Bo refuses to take it from Mando because it needs to be won....didn't Sabine give it to her in the first place?

I'm really struggling with some of your phrasing today and it is cracking me up.
The dark saber (use your imagination). Bo refuses to take it from Mando...but Sabine is well up for it right from the get go.
I am clearly not a Star Wars fan - but I have a filthy mind and might well become a fan if this is anything to go by.

@Kiwiwomble Mando does have an impressively big, shiny helmet.

@scribe and a long shiny staff

@Kiwiwomble and Grogu loves holding his smooth ball

Can you do one about wiping the the prequels from my, um, their memory?
No, the prequels have been proven to be far superior to the sequels.

@MN5 100%
they have huge faults...but at least they more or less work as a trilogy and connect to the originals
now looking back I think one change would "fix" the prequels...make Anakin like 5 years older and a bit of a street urchin (using the force to pick pockets, maybe in the podrace he uses the force to drop a bolder in front of someone), relationship with pademe is less creepy and showing he already had a bit of dark side in him would explain why his fall was so quick

They're rubbish, no matter how much revisionists like to convince themselves they're not, even Dave Feloni's explanation of them which is supposed to make them better doesn't make them better.
I never want to subject myself to them again. TBF, the 3rd of the sequels was of the same standard.

@Nepia out of curiosity when was the last time you watched them?

Last year, I did a rewatch to see if they were as bad as I remembered, they were worse.

@Nepia we did the same, wifes idea which was a pleasant surprise, and I thought they were better. There was a bit of the cool stuff they introduced outweighed a lot of the bad stuff. I actually came out of it thinking Ep 1 was better than Ep 2, the whole awkward love story just ruined the first half
I also saw all the good stuff people talk about in the last jedi and came to the conclusion its a solid film that tries to do some good/different stuff...it just doesn't fit in this epic series of films, the penultimate film is not the time to shoot off in a different direction

It was the opposite for me, all the cool stuff got outweighed by all the crap and at times I had to stop all 3 to laugh at various points.
I genuinely like The Last Jedi (aside from the casino planet diversion) and thought TFA was a good comeback film (unlike TPM). Really, really, really hated the 3rd one though. But, I love Rogue One, Mando and enjoyed Solo so it's mostly all good for me for the new lot.

No they’re not. If anything the sequels ( particularly the Last Jedi ) have made any number of people realise they’re very good in their own right.
The latest trilogy cost the franchise loads of fans, thanks god Mando came along to set things right.

Yep. They could eff off TPM and go straight to number 2. We could then have learned more about his background as the series progressed. Ultimately Lucas was unashamedly targeting kids. Kids loved it while older fans didn’t.
