The Mandalorian & Grogu is not a good movie. It has a James Bond cold open that made both hosts genuinely excited, and then it spends two hours systematically destroying that goodwill with flat performances, cartoon-level writing, and a villain nobody asked for. MonteCristo and DoA break down how Dave Filoni turned Mandalorian Season 4 into a feature film that's 45 minutes too long, wastes its entire cast, and accidentally commits genocide.

So why is this movie better-crafted than most $200 million blockbusters? MonteCristo and DoA break down why Mortal Kombat 2 is the best video game movie ever made and what Hollywood should learn from it.

The decanonization rumors are back, Kathleen Kennedy is out, Dave Filoni is running Lucasfilm, and Galaxy's Edge is finally putting Darth Vader back in the theme park.
