‘The Mandalorian’ Actor Reveals How Much Baby Yoda’s Robo-Puppet Costs
www.forbes.com: The breakout star of The Mandalorian, Baby Yoda, is not actually alive, but rather one foot zero of rubber and machinery, a puppet, in the simplest terms. The show has been praised for using a live-action, old-fashioned puppet for Baby Yoda instead of CGI, though the show originally wrestled with the concept and thought about using a computer-generated Baby Yoda instead. That led to the famous Werner Herzog quote, known Baby Yoda supporter, “Leave it, you cowards.”Local Playwright Explores What It Means To Be Normal In High School Musical
90.5 WESA: One of the ways J.R. Hall bonded with his daughter Sophia at an early age was a mutual appreciation for documentaries.
“I would notice that, instead of watching Disney stories, a lot of times she would be snuggled up next to me watching documentaries, history shows, 'Frontline' and things on PBS,” he said. “And I thought it was kind of amusing.

I went recently to see 1917 and we all left with the general consensus it was an incredibly well done film. As this article touches on, the cinematography is phenomenal, and transitions are truly seamless, creating the illusion of the movie being one continuous moment. Im sure if somebody keen looked closely enough, they could find moments where a cut occurred, but to the average eye not paying very close attention, the camera did not turn off at all. Another aspect about this movie I was impressed by was the raw moments of war captured and depicted. There were dead bodies lying around from the start of the film, and so interesting how the main characters, both young men, coped with the carnage that surrounded them for their whole journey. A specific detail which stood out to me was because this film was “one shot”, there was no time or moments to dwell on death or what happens to somebody once the camera moves away. Therefore the audience is left with a lot of mystery and abrupt endings to character moments, but I enjoyed that, because it showed exactly how the main characters were experiencing their journey as well.
