This looks like a TV episode

 


It’s partly Disney’s fault for making The Mandalorian TV show so high-budget looking, but there’s nothing to signify this looks like a movie as opposed to just another TV episode. I think Marvel had the same issue with Captain America 4. 

The scene with Ripley looks straight out of a TV set. A movie would have had at least a ton of extras in the background and more complicated lighting and more involved blocking, because with a movie you can spend weeks to plan and develop a single shot instead of a few hours.

I don’t even think the use of the volume is an issue; movies like The Batman used the volume and it looked great. 

I think this is just Mandalorian S4 but made as a movie. I’m thinking with Disney’s move away from producing Disney+ streaming content and refocusing back to movies (which are more profitable), the 4th season got retooled into a movie.

Which honestly, good, I think the vast majority of Disney+ shows should have been movies, since their stories seemed like 2 hours of plot stretched to 6. Only exceptions I remember are Wandavision, Andor, Loki; and ironically, the first two Mandalorians, since standalone side quests was its main shtick.

Also, there is no plot or premise in this trailer! That seems really important!



The poster looks fire though. I love the artistry and the logo. Ludwig Goranson’s Mandalorian theme is also still a classic.
