Anyone else think the Mandalorian sounds like a young Clint Eastwood?

Yes. I even commented on this last night!

Good to know it's not just me, was the comment on this forum?

[–] mav100000 (244) 2 months ago

Haha, no, I mentioned it to my wife while we were watching the latest episode!

Fair enough makes sense.

The whole series is basically a space spaghetti western.

Yeah i've noticed that. The ep with the marshall was very western.

And to think the Marshall himself voiced the Clint Eastwood character (“The Spirit of the West”) in “Rango”

I said that while watching the very first episode of season 1. I may even have posted here about it back then. He sounds exactly like Eastwood in Leone's westerns. I have to believe that is no accident.

Yeah I noticed it from the start as well. The whole thing looks like a Western set in space, even then Tatooine has always been more like the Wild West.

No coincidence. Boba Fett is clearly based on "The Man With No Name".

It did sound like him, and to add to the discussion here. It is no accident that the show feels like a western. If you think about it, Star Wars is basically a western in space. Heck, Han Solo is the typical cynical gunfighter.
