Notably, The Mandalorian used puppetry for all the aliens. Using CGI for backgrounds but practical effects for stuff the cast actually interacts with seemed to work really well.
- I_am_tiberius 5y agoIndeed - I love the Mandalorian but costumes/puppetry aren't on the highest level in my opinion.

- chansiky 5y agoI rather liked the near campy look of some of those puppets. I thought it helped create subtle nostalgia for the original trilogy.
- sleepybrett 5y agoNot all, but a lot of them, but they also couch this specifically as a reference to... mostly Return of the Jedi, many shots contain puppets or stop motion animation that is actually shot at a lower framerate to play up the unreality.
