In Search of Tomorrow (2022)
Metric Ton of 80s Nostalgic
Hello friend,
if you are reading this, you are stumbeling back in time. Searching for an on point analysis of classic, mainstream and niche, 80s scifi movies, you will find it right here. Bits and pieces of beloved memories from your cinema and TV past, as well as new details you may never have heard before. Interviews with legends (Hi, Clancy Brown!), well edited snippets of so many movies and covers, as well as the pure essence of the most enjoyable soundtracks.
Am I biased toward this movie? Sure I am... since I watched the first Star Wars as a kid.
Only downside... its taking nearly 5 hours of your lifetime! And thank god for every minute of it!
The Mandalorian (2019)
Success lies in the simplicity
This modern approach to the loved franchise, across generations, lies in a simply but heart-warming story, lore-loving set design and fantastic minimalistic dialogs.
# Story: Its basically Lone Wolf and Cub, set in a Sci-Fi-western scenario.
# Characters: Every one, good and bad, are driven by own, understandable motivations. Religion, Traumata, Greed, Hate
# Set-Design: Every piece of technic is celebrated, from a simple Blaster, to armours, vehicles, spacecraft's and gadgets.
# Dialogue: Reduced to the very essence, and lacking any fillers, but not lacking humour.
Overall: It's the BEST modern approach to Star Wars, I have seen so far.
To myself and to put my view in perspective: The Empire Strikes Back is my all-time favourite, I adore A New Hope and Return Of The Jedi, and Rouge One was ok. Everything else I simple ignore.
