Many of us thought about it from the trailer.

But after seeing the episode, it's a different ship (especially the prow). Perhaps inspired by the R-41 Starchaser. We will know soon. #TheMandalorian

Not the first time I thought I saw this ship in a recent series.

I love SW games so I love their ships. This one was introduced in Defender of the Empire, then appeared in XvT, Mysteries of the Sith, X-Wing Alliance, and even The force Unleashed 2.

Now, we already know the Mando crew really love these games, so...
I suppose it's too soon to ask if it's a tribute or a coincidence @rchurchdesign ? ^^

Star Trek Discovery (2017-2024)

The fifth season of Discovery will be the last!

Unsurprisingly at a time when the series last fewer and fewer seasons. As Trek runs with 5 series, it was probably time to make room for a new story. A spin-off in the far future, or something else.
"Principal photography has just wrapped, but there will be come additional filming on the season, a source tells Deadline."

It must be bittersweet for the crew. It's already the end for them.

[New game] Star Survivor (Steam) by SpaceOwl Games

It's a "rogue-lite survival asteroids game".

"The last ship against the endless. Exterminate as many as you can, and gather points to upgrade your ship from a crafted deck of equipment and power-ups."
You know the kind of game.
"Carefully control your ship with Newtonian physics past the swarm of thousands of enemies. Each kill will gain you resources to upgrade your vessel, unlock new ships, or stack the odds in your favor."

#TheMandalorian team is still having so much fun in the galaxy far away sandbox.
And the designers and concept artist served me well: thank you :)
One too-soon-for-Twitter shot is marvelous.
@AmcbToraidhe did you do the (great) bad guy design? Because I thought about you even before seeing your name in the credits ;)

I finished The Lord of the Rings with my son. What I imagined sharing with my children, long before having any.
This end still moves me so much... then I told him millennia of Appendices lol
Now I will read the books to him. Which could take years. It took me six months to read the hobbit to the eldest.

On the other hand, he already knows the maps well...since I have plenty of them. Maps are life!

Also, he saw The Hobbit before LOTR. And me for the first time in that order.
Whatever I think of those movies (there should have been two), it impacted his view of LOTR in a great way. He better understood the stakes, the characters and the geographical situation.
