Bill Burrilliant Following last night’s Disney Investor Call, in which hundreds of thousands of Star Wars fans sat at the back of the metaphorical boardroom, losing their minds over a news dump that laid out the roadmap for the future of the franchise, there was a risk that this week’s new episode of The Mandalorian…

Mandalorian Musings: Chapter 12 (S2, E4) Reaction
Mythrollicking Action Adventure The Mandalorian could justifiably be accused of serving ‘filler’ episodes in season one, with weeks in which we totally diverged from the central story arc in favour of an unrelated side-quest.

I’m not saying it’s a bad thing – episode four was an almost self-contained blast – but it did undoubtedly surprise me. We…
