As an American who visited Australia recently, I can’t really disagree with you. There’s a lot of good there that we should learn from an implement here, but our culture as Americans is about individuality and winning. People feel like they are free if they can be individuals and win, if not then the propaganda is there that “Dream” is within reach if you only work hard enough.

It’s bullshit, but it’s a pride thing.

That’s a great opinion. We see things differently.

I personally loved it. It was its own contained side story like Solo was. It showed some evolution for Grogu and Mando was a bad ass.

The biggest complaint I see is that it’s a “longer episode of the show.” Yeah, but so is any Star Trek movie, the Sponge Bob movie, the Simpson’s movie, etc. Anything that’s a TV product that goes to the theater is just a long version of that thing because we are used to the thing on TV. That said, this did not bother me at all as it was enjoyable.

All of the love they added through shots that were based on original Star Wars concept art were very enjoyable. I loved the use of stop motion that was a nod to things like the Rancor from RoTJ. It was filled with awesome creatures, droids, and a connection to the Clone Wars.

So come aboard and bring along all your hopes and dreams!

Adults love Legos and the Lego movies and video games are huge. It also captures nostalgia for many, which can capture Gen Z attention.

Plus it gets people talking about it. It’s a smart play.
