There is a dopey singing number though.
Overall it’s quite silly.

I mean, that Boba Fett cartoon is the one legitimately cool part of the special. I know you can watch it on YouTube, but I’d love it for that to be restored and released as a stand-alone short on Disney+ or the Blu-Ray of the eventual restored '77 theatrical version of Star Wars or Empire Strikes Back.

I was today years old when I realized that the Mandalorian’s signature weapon was lifted from that cartoon.

I loved The Lego Movie, but my impression of a lot of the other lego media is that it’s more exclusively for kids than that film was. Am I mistaken about this?

I only just realized it because you pointed it out!
