However, вЂњThe MandalorianвЂќ marks the franchiseвЂ™s first step into live-action television (or is it a web series since itвЂ™s only on a streaming service?), taking place five years after the events of 1983вЂ™s вЂњReturn of the Jedi,вЂќ with the fall of the Imperial Empire.ДЇor those not familiar, вЂњStar WarsвЂќ is a space fantasy series focusing on the constant struggle between freedom and tyranny in a galaxy far, far away, with the episodic films mostly focusing on the grand adventures of space wizards with laser swords called вЂњJedi,вЂќ with that saga set to conclude in this DecemberвЂ™s вЂњ Star Wars: Episode IX-The Rise of Skywalker.

While it is primarily a film-based series, with the original 1977 вЂњStar WarsвЂќ still the fourth-highest grossing movie of all time, adjusted for inflation, the franchise has been exceptionally successful in crossing the divisions of media forms, with video games, comic books and animated television shows. вЂњStar WarsвЂќ has always been a cultural behemoth. Well, Disney is betting that their new вЂњStar WarsвЂќ show, вЂњThe Mandalorian,вЂќ run by Jon Favreau, can do it for Disney+, and going by the first two episodes, they could be right.

Now, all of DisneyвЂ™s new content and entire back catalog is completely accessible under a (relatively) affordable service gone is the so-called Disney vault.Д«ut is it really worth it? To make it as a new streaming service, there has to be a cultural zeitgeist around some piece of exclusive content on it, something that creates a conversion around it, forcing everyone to sign up, like вЂњGame of ThronesвЂќ did for HBO Now, or вЂњThe HandmaidвЂ™s TaleвЂќ did for Hulu. Under the tenure of CEO Bob Iger, Disney has become increasingly focused on the acquisition of studios and intellectual property, whether it be Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars or 21st Century Fox, and this streaming service could be the end goal. Having one cable subscription is no longer the norm to be up-to-date with all the ongoing shows, it seems that many people, including Case Western Reserve University students, are being pressured to sign up for several services, with more and more having their own exclusive content.Д«ut, if thereвЂ™s one new streaming service thatвЂ™s had the most buzz as a contender to the Netflix crown, outside of older challengers like Hulu or Amazon Prime Video, it would have to be Disney+, the media behemothвЂ™s new streaming service. Every week, it seems a new streaming service is launching, with traditional media companies like CBS, NBC or WarnerMedia launching their own with CBS All Access, Peacock and HBO Max, respectively, and tech companies like Apple getting into the content business with Apple TV+.
