Saturday at 02:10 PM5 days CB Team We're a couple of weeks away from The Mandalorian and Grogu hitting theaters. How's everyone feeling?I'm actually genuinely excited to see this. Star Wars is my favorite franchise and it's gonna be great to see it on the big screen again after all these years. Plus, I am incapable of being objective about anything involving Grogu. If I can get a little personal for a bit, he reminds me so much of our old dog (who sadly is no longer with us). His last Halloween I got him a little Yoda costume with a hood that had the ears. He was "Baby Yoda" before Baby Yoda was even a thing. Grogu is legitimately one of my favorite Star Wars characters for that reason.I hope Mando and Grogu is good and it does well at the box office.
Saturday at 02:14 PM5 days I'm excited, i've got my opening day ticket, and i just picked up the perfect bag to bring my lifesized grogu figure with me to sit on my lap while we watch it!
Monday at 09:41 AM3 days CB Team Love that dog story 🥹 I'm looking forward to it (even more so now due to being in the middle of a Mando rewatch right now in preparation - Seasons 1 and 2 are so good - but I've liked everything from the marketing in the past couple of months). I don't think it'll be spectacular, but I do think it'll be a good fun family adventure movie, and most importantly, Grogu will once again be ridiculously adorable, and I'm fine with that. It's not like every Star Wars movie before now was some 5* masterpiece... I also think its box office will be fine - it'll appeal more to families than fanboys, and that's a solid strategy for success here. Again, not huge, but good enough

Monday at 06:33 PM3 days I think it will do really well from a box office perspective. The last trailer was really good and they are doing a great marketing job. I'm. curious about the story, if they are going to try and wrap up the Mandalorian/Grogu story or if this is a set up for more spinoffs and another season. I'd love to start getting some answers (or at least a little more info) on the Yoda/Grogu race
Tuesday at 04:37 PM2 days CB Team I think marketing has been a little too weak for my liking, but it's picked up. I reckon it'll need strong word of mouth.

He sounds like the best boy ❤️Really is crazy how cute they made Grogu (I frequently look after a dog for someone and Grogu always reminds me a lot of her as well), not sure there's another character who comes close in that regard.
