I can only speak to The Mandalorian but it is most certainly a western in space. Protagonist is basically a new sheriff on every new planet he lands on.

I also love the WWII dogfights in space and the PEW PEW sound effects, even though we could never really hear them in actual space. Suspension of disbelief!!

1. A New Hope (I acknowledge ESB is a better film but ANH is my favorite)
2. Empire strikes Back
3. Revenge of the Sith (It gets here on Ian McDirmid and Ewan McGregor alone)
4. Rogue One
5. The Return of the Jedi (Ewoks cost this the 3 spot)
6. The Phantom Menace
7. Attack of the Clones (The acting in this is abysmal but it can be stupid fun sometimes)
8. The Force Awakens
9. Solo (A movie I never asked for or cared about.  Harrison Ford is Han Solo.  If this had been on Disney Plus I probably would like it more.)
10. The Last Jedi (A very well shot, acted and directed movie with a nonsensical plot)
11. Ewoks Battle for Endor (Wilford Brimley fighting a Force Witch of Dathomir is awesome though)
12. Ewoks: Caravan of Courage
13. Star Wars XXX A Porn Parody
14. A video of Chewbacca taking a crap for 2 hours reading a magazine
15. The Star Wars Holiday Special
16. Rise of Skywalker


TV series...

1. Mandalorian (Easily some of the best Star Wars for me.  It rivals ANH for my favorite of any SW properties)
2. Clone Wars (Shows how creative Lucas can be when he wants.  Redeems the prequels)
3. The Book of Boba Fett (In progress but already huge potential
4. Star Wars Rebels (The kid centered episodes bring it down)
5. Bad Batch
6. Star Wars Resistance (I actually never made it through the whole show.  Hated the setting)
7. Droids
8. Ewoks

DAMN, brutal!   :2funny:

A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

Is it just me or is it getting hot in here?

 A New Hope is easily #1. Those of you who were not alive when it came out cannot appreciate what an impact it had. I grew up starved for even bad Japanese black-and-white sci-fi or monster movies. When the original Star Trek came out on TV it exploded our minds, light years in advance of anything done before. It sadly went off the air too soon and we were starved for sci-fi until A New Hope came out in 1977. It was as revolutionary and mind-blowing at the time as Star Trek had been in the 60's. The Graphics were AMAZING. The scope was awe inspiring. People look back at the movie today and say "Meh", but at the time it was unbelievable. I drove 2 hours and stood in line for 4 and a half hours with some friends at the Galleria in Houston during opening week to see it. We went back and watched it 4 times in the first month. That does not sound like much today, but we were all in college at Texas A&M and had to drive 2 hours to get to the nearest theater showing it. No my friends, for all of its flaws and cheeziness by today's standards, "A New Hope" remains one of the best movies of my life and easily the best Star Wars movie.

New Hope is the first i saw and i agree with you. It's my favourite as well but Empires Strikes back is probably an even better movie with a deeper story.

And let me add...by 'the originals' I mean the ones unfutzed with by George Lucas years later, adding assorted scenes/details/characters/oddities.
Same here...

But seriously, I did like the fighter battles in the original trilogy because it felt like WW2 dogfights in space.   :)
