Indeed, the more cosmic MCU is in stark contrast from the more grounded, Earth-based films.

The Mandalorian has been an unmatched success in more ways than one. While the popularity of the show is fully recognized by fans, casual viewers, and various award organizations , the technological advancements made that allowed the series to come to life are still somewhat overlooked.
