Taika knocked it outta the galaxy with this episode! Reveal hidden contents Opening scene with the scout troopers was both hysterical & enraging when they hit Baby Yoda The IG unit is seriously bad ass and all the EU stuff I ever read never gave IG-88 that much depth Mandalorian is a creed! I dig that Shoot outs were bad ass How aperpos how the circle is complete from Mando's beginning to where he is now with B.Y. Moff Gideon with the fucking Darksaber paying off SO much story telling from both Clone Wars and Rebels...WOW! THANK YOU DAVE FILONI I LOVE YOU! The wait for fall of next year is going to be agonizing in terms of waiting for season 2. Here's hoping not only the episodes are longer but perhaps a slightly longer episode number as well!? I can't wait to see what else D+ has in store for not only this property (SW) but what they hopefully do via giving Taika & Dave both full reign over live action series of their own!!! *side note: When DOES the final final Clone Wars episodes come out anyways!?

Guest Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 That was a satisfying finale. I find episode 5 even more baffling with the way the season went. Taika needs to do more Star Wars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Great episode and i liked the series overall. The opening with the two scout troopers was awesome In retrospect, there was a lot crammed into this episode and I can't help but feel that maybe they could have spread some of this stuff out over more earlier episodes... like they could have allied the crew with the IG Droid to be build up more of an organic connection between he and Mando. I really liked The Armorer and hope we haven't seen the last of her. Lastly did we ever find out who that was that approached Ming Na Wen's character at the end of that episode? I suspect we'll find out next season and they are setting up another plot thread with that but we'll see. Great first season though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I’ve seen other people mention this, but Mandalorian has character deaths that resonate more than JJ does with Han and Leia, and these characters are side characters in comparison to two of the most iconic lead characters in pop culture history.

Agree or disagree I would honestly say Mandalorian has a more authentic Star Wars feel to it than this last trilogy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Darksaber is an ancient lightsaber wielded by the first Mandalorian Jedi. I have always known that it was the "Mandaloiran Lightsaber". I think the New Canon has changed the origins of the Darksaber so I am not sure about the other aspects of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CayceG Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 HO LE FUCK THAT WAS INCREDIBLE. Real talk, Mandalorian is incredible. The Mandalorians as a creed is just perfect. This REALLY builds on the stuff Rebels brought to the table. It makes Rebels so much more rich now. And it makes the Mandalorians themselves cooler than the Jedi. They are the fucking BEST. Boba Fett was a pretender. Favreau and Filoni are taking what we all THOUGHT were cool Mandalorians in just how Boba Fett was presented and fleshing them out to be legitimately the best true force for good in the Galaxy. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT I-G-MOTHERFUCKING-11? Holy crap what an amazing episode. This washes away the sins of Rise of Skywalker. THIS is what we need more of. And that reveal at the end. I'm bursting with hype and fanboying all over the place. If anyone has NOT watched Rebels, do yourself a favor and get started on that now. This is the got. damn. way. And another thing -- that gondola R2 unit with arms and legs made me bust out laughing. And props to Taika Waititi for NOT having it beep "O sole mio" as we ALL KNOW JJ Abrams or George Lucas would have had it do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy fuck! ...also, but Baby Yoda never had Force training. It’s a little nibbler sue. Ruins the Force. /“fanboy” troll. really good episode. still not sure how this show had a budget of $10million per episode. The production quality wasn’t that high. Still enjoyable.

Reputator Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I didn't notice before but according to the credits the special effects (or at least some) were done in the Unreal Engine.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 George Lucas always wanted to keep Yoda’s species a mystery. Dave Filloni who is a producer in this show has been on record agreeing with George Lucas. I think it will be something they are chasing all series long, yet never attain. The lesson will be they’ve been all the family each other need the whole time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
