The Mandalorian (Star Wars Live Action Series)

[chrisstbh]

Why does Luke Skywalker have to show up? It's called "Star Wars" not "Skywalkers". We've yet to have one piece of Star Wars media on screen that doesn't have a Skywalker in it in some capacity. Just give us something totally disconnected from that name for once.

Why can't Bo-Katan take the Darksaber? She had zero issues taking it from Sabine in Rebels without a fight. She also ripped on Mando for his "way" for not taking his helmet off etc. yet she can't see past her own "honour". They also could have just had a friendly non-lethal fight over it, she would have won anyway.

How the hell did Gideon best Bo-Katan in a fight to get the Darksaber? Man cant fight for ****.

Maclunkey.

I think having R2 D2 in the scene was also a course correction for what ST did with Luke/R2 relationship.

Definitely 100%

Okay I pulled up the infamous scene on my phone and watched it again. I actually love Fett's demeanor and dialogue in that sequence. Calling Bo Katan "princess" like Han talking down to Leia. Awesome. I like that he got the first hit in by throwing "strong female character" (in "Critical Drinker's" voice, lol) through the table, lol. Then him grappling her arm with the cable was just weird. What was he even going for? Obviously not a lethal attack. And her forearm strength in just one arm exceeding both of his *with* his entire body weight behind it? Hnnnng.

I do realize that at the very least he performed no worse than he did in ROTJ which is why I'm even considering not writing off those scenes completely.

But the lasso thing is what instantly convinced me it was a girl power thing the dude is now Boba Fat for crying out loud lol

When she trash talked I vomited in my mouth.

Star Wars was getting ridiculous with all the rumors of surviving Jedi running around. The only one who SHOULD have been able to answer Grogu's call WAS Luke. This is five years after ROTJ man so if you call out for a Jedi you get Luke or one of his students, the end. ****** that Mace Windu ****, lol.

 

[jye4ever]

Told you so. There was never a chance of anybody but Hamill appearing in this historic moment in Star Wars.

Preach it brother ummm Turd lol

Like you said all they had to do was show him wipe the floor with no-name chick then he and *BO* have the stand-off with the flamethrowers before it gets broken up. FFS they could have had the scene accomplish the same thing while disgracing no one.

 

[jye4ever]

Definitely 100%

Yup he was perfectly used for the grogu transfer everyone was already crying like mad we needed that nice break lol

Oh god when it got to the level of a crappy VIDEOGAME JEDI character my eyes were rolling.

WHO DAFUQ CARES ABOUT A VIDEOGAME CHARACTER UGHHHH

It could ONLY be ONE!

Had it been anyone else I would've thrown my tv out of the window by that point.

khev when the xwing arrived I was on my feet literally in front of the tv trembling crying with my hands clasped in a tight grip praying no shame admitting that lol

 

[Khev]

I did like the post credits scene and didn't mind

Spoiler:

Fennec doing the dirty work since she then took her rightful place as window dressing next to King Cona--I mean Fett's throne.

What video game character were people expecting, lol.

 

[DARTHTODD]

Spoilers!

Incredible.....I cried too. THIS is the Luke Skywalker I grew up with.

That moment when Din takes his helmet off and Grogu touches his face...I lost it.

So if there is any path moving forward after the sequel trilogy...Grogu survived the Kylo jedi massacre and he restarts the jedi order. Perhaps Rey will help but this has got to happen correct?!

Anyone but who we got would have been a major disappointment. All these kids who watched half of ROTJ with their dads need to get off my lawn!

So let's see here.

Fett vs ROTJ Luke: Luke

Fett vs No-Name Mando Chick: Embarrassing Draw

Fett vs Fat Unarmed Bib Fortuna: Fett

WOW what a badass, lol.

 

[jye4ever]

I actually like the Filoni X-Wing scenes now that they so perfectly set up this reveal to be even MORE spectacular and awesome, lol.

WOW i didn't think of it that way totally works

Can't wait for the Fett vs Frog Lady show down next season where Fett barely escapes with his life.

Not if they send the ST off to the KK fan fiction hell alternate universe it is...they can park it right next to Biff Tannen's casino.

Whoa! Heard of spoiler tags?!

 

[Khev]

It would have been cool if

Spoiler:

instead of Fennec clearing Jabba's Palace it was a lone Dark Trooper to make people go "wha, what's going on here? And *then* Fett enters the room so everyone could go "aha, he was serving Gideon all along and his new Dark servant was his payment!"

They can still fix this mess lol

 

[jye4ever]

Oh and holy crap the DT were like a legit threat and a great step up from the PT SBD.

They were pretty damn intimidating.

That is until you know who melted them like butter lol

Bad ass

 

[jye4ever]

Whoa! Heard of spoiler tags?!

I'm actually hoping no one who hasn't seen the episode comes here because I'm spoiling everything without tags now lol
