A fan page dedicated to spreading good cheer & news about The Mandalorian and other treasures in the Star Wars universe!
We're hoping on a Mythosaur appearance for the movie. If the Krayt Dragon was Level 1, the Mythosaur is Level 100. What creatures do you think we’ll see aside from the teasers in the trailer?

11/11 This is Star Wars' redemption arc. Mando & Grogu isn't just a movie, it's the bounty hunter saving the franchise. May the Force (and box office) be with it. What’s your prediction? Reply below! #ThisIsTheWay #Grogu

10/11 Risks? Post-pandemic fatigue, but Mando's family-friendly vibe (think Shrek-level merch tie-ins) counters it. Disney doesn't *need* a mega-hit, but this one's built for it. $1B floor: 60%+ probability based on comps. Who's hyped? (we are!)

9/11 China's BO is exploding: highest-grossing market ever, overtaking US records. If Mando taps 5-10% of that (vs. past SW flops), that's $100M+ easy. Add Grogu's cuteness factor (universal > saga plots), and it breaks the "SW curse." Early polls: Chinese fans rank Mando top-tier SW.

8/11 It's beloved: Chinese web novels (450M+ readers hooked on interactive formats). Merch like Blokees' Mando/Grogu figures flying off shelves in mainland China, HK, Taiwan, etc. - triggering (hilariously) pro-China bots. Growing Disney+ access via partnerships means primed audiences.

7/11 Now, China is the sleeping giant. Star Wars sequels bombed there (Rise of Skywalker: ~$25M), but Mando's different. Prequels resonated; originals didn't. Grogu's universal adorableness + virtual production tech admiration (China's eyeing Mando's LED walls for VFX) = breakout potential.

6/11 Grogu isn't just cute; he's a cultural icon. That emotional pull? Pure box office gold. Predictions see it dominating 2026 without Avengers competition. Skeptics saying "doomed"? Trailer hype shut that down: expect $800M+ WW easy, per fan analysis.

5/11 Legacy box office firepower: 7 of 11 Star Wars films hit $1B+ (e.g., Force Awakens: $2B, Last Jedi: $1.3B). Even spin-offs like Rogue One ($1.05B) prove non-saga hits work. Mando & Grogu? It's the perfect bridge & early buzz calls it a "clever solution" to SW's movie woes.

4/11 Ranking Star Wars seasons by popularity/viewership (Nielsen/Parrot data):
1. Mando S1 (global phenomenon, 1B+ minutes weekly)
2. Mando S2 (topped overall charts)
3. Mando S3 (strong finale surge)
4. Andor S1 (solid but niche)
5. Andor S2 (gained steam but below Mando baseline)
October 27, 2025 at 12:17 AM
3/11 Compare to Andor: Critically loved, but S1/S2 viewership lags behind Mando's peaks, S2 premiere equaled its own S1 but fell short of Mando's highs.

Mando's broad appeal > Andor's depth. This translates to theater turnout.

2/11 Season 1 was TV's most in-demand show worldwide, outpacing giants like Game of Thrones. S2 was 20x more popular than the average Disney+ originals. Even S3 topped charts during its finale.
