The Mandalorian Season Three Finale Review: “Chapter 24 – The Return”

mandalorian chapter 24 return review mynockmanor

Spoiler Review –

The Mandalorian Season Three Finale “Chapter 24 – The Return” brings lots of action and has fun doing it, but the ending doesn’t feel deserved as characters arcs are abandoned or left to fade to the background of a safe plot and a neat bow, leaving this feeling more like a series finale than just the season and me wondering if it needs to come back. Continue reading “The Mandalorian Season Three Finale Review: “Chapter 24 – The Return””

Star Wars: Visions Vol. 2 Panel: Stunning Trailer and Story Details Revealed (SWCE 2023)

I. Am. Floored. In fact, the trailer above is so visually intriguing and promising, I would’ve been fine with just that ahead of Star Wars: Vision’s Vol. 2 release on May 4. Add in the fact how wonderful and unforgettable the first volume turned out to be, I don’t need anything more to convince me to tune in. But if you’re like me, you want all the details they’ll offer and the panel didn’t disappoint, revealing a little something about all 9 shorts, including each one’s cast, like Denis Lawson returning to voice Wedge Antilles!

The Bad Batch Panel: Final Season Out 2024, Fennec Shand Returns (SWCE 2023)

The Bad Batch panel was actually streaming on Celebration Live, so you can check out the whole thing, minus the exclusive trailer, after about like the first 5 minutes of the stream above. A lot of the panel was focused on Tech’s death, the themes of the season, the Zillo beast clone, and how beautiful the sushi looked. During it they announced a season three, though as I was guessing in my reviews, it’s also the show’s final season, coming out in 2024. The official site shared some details on the trailer only shown to fans, with Fennec Shan’s return shown, more big monsters, Palpatine on Tantiss, and even Commander Wolffe, among other things. Hopefully we’ll get to see some footage soon ourselves, but with it out in 2024, it might be awhile.
