I mean this was a pretty good adventure episode I guess. Tatooine is nice in small doses despite all of the shows using it lately. I do like that they delved into the lore a little bit with the Boontas Eve references from TPM. Mandalore was cool, they did a pretty good job of recreating Sundari city into live action even with the ruins I could still make out some areas from TCW pretty well. I totally expected the atmosphere to be breathable though, that came as no surprise to me.
The creature was interesting, not sure if it was a cyborg or just a really small alien using a bunch of mech suits. Perhaps a mix of both but probably a cyborg and that’s why it needed the blood transfusion. Honestly Bo Katan was really good in this episode as well, glad we got to focus on her fighting.
Despite all the cool little things the episode still felt fairly slow… I guess the redemption plot is basically over now though and we can move into the real story? I feel like at this point we can judge every Mando season the same… first episode starts with setting up the main plot then cool action sequences. Second episode is more of a side adventure (slow paced), etc. it seems to use the same format every time.

Honestly I don’t really look at Mandalorian or even Book of Boba Fett for their stories though, I see these shows as just fun adventures in the universe and that’s honestly the best part. Characters like Mando and Boba are never gonna be super deep. Andor is a way more narrative story that’s grounded with average people. Kenobi try’s to be Andor I find, but kind of fails story wise.

Saw a theory that Vanth might get set up to be the new Marshall of Kargas town. I Guess it could make sense given Boba probably provides protection to Vanths village now. Also It would get him out of Tatooine which is nice, especially if there’s no Boba Fett season 2.

I watched the second episode of the new season! So far pretty good but Mando looks so defeated this episode. {Spoiler} gets captured, has to rely on baby yoda, can barely stand after his blood was drawn but yet still wants to search for the waters? Then once he does he get sucked under...bro just took L's this whole episode. Whatever concoction of a creature they created looked so cool, it felt like it fit right into Star Wars. It gave me some serious grievous vibes. I'm sure it will be explained later in a book or something but what was that thing? It looked like a robot, but it had an eye of an organism? Probably something out of whatever sewer Maul crawled out of lmao. Seriously though, so many questions like why did he draw blood, and did he specifically target Mandalorians because there was a lot of helmets in his lair. It had a giant spider mech too, I assume it is some species turned into a cyborg? It reminded me of Kazdan Paratus from Force Unleashed 1. Pretty cool design. Occasionally they have some pretty good designs that I think sci fi fans can appreciate |

He seems kind of tied to that planet and I can’t see him being someplace else. Kinda like how I can’t imagine Peli Motto on another planet or even someone like Jabba tbh I do wonder if he will be in this season though or if they will save him for Boba 2 which I think might actually happen… Also I guess he will be a cyborg or something? I hope not |

Still conflicted on Mando, don’t know how I feel about it but I guess it still has its moments. I think I’m going to just exclude everything that takes place after season 2 from my head canon. That would probably include other shows like Ahsoka too. Idk I just can’t get over the stuff that happened in BOBF that show ruins a lot of things for me. But maybe I’m just doing it to myself by having unrealistic expectations…
I liked aspects of episode 2 but I also thought there was some dumb stuff. First, wasn’t the super contrived reason for tearing down the statue last episode that IG was the only droid Mando trusted? Now he just takes R5. Second, do you really need a droid to do an atmospheric scan? In like all sci fi, usually ships are able to do those types of scans. Also did the atmosphere even matter if Mando’s helmet is pressurized. If it was for Grogu, just get him a sealed pram or something. Idk that whole plot point seemed very forced.
So far this season is feeling a lot more like a video game with how they write the “side quests”. The cyborg felt like a boss battle too. Some people complain about this but personally I think the video game writing is cool.

Also I guess they’re setting up a romance with Bo-Katan… Feels like a lot of decisions are being made to cater to the normies not gonna lie. Who do you guys think will ultimately become the ruler? I think the rumor is Bo will get the darksaber again and take the throne. Honestly I think if they do that, it will feel like Game of Thrones final seasons which is bad.
Din isn’t necessarily leader material but I like the idea of a reluctant hero becoming king or being the chosen one or tropes like that. Even if he doesn’t become permanent Mandalore for the next whatever years, I would like to see him actually try to get the position and maybe even hold it for a while until something happens or he gives it up. Him being like “I don’t want it” will be Jon Snow and Daenerys again lol. Bo has had a few chances now I don’t think she should get another one.
The trailer made it seem like Din was rallying his followers with a speech but I think he already said those lines to Bo in this episode. Once again I’m disappointed by getting too invested in my theories and not having them pan out lmao

You guys know the astromech droid R5-D4 that Mando bought was the one the Jawas tried to sell to Uncle (Lars) Owen in a New Hope? The Mythosaur is pretty cool, Boba's emblem is a mythosaur skull. I guess they aren't extinct. Honestly he's gonna be the new pet Mando rides into battle.

Characters like Mando and Boba are never gonna be super deep. Andor is a way more narrative story that’s grounded with average people. Kenobi try’s to be Andor I find, but kind of fails story wise. I really didn't enjoy Kenobi personally, but everything else I've watched from Disney I've thoroughly enjoyed (7,8,9 don't exist in my opinion though). I agree they are just fun adventures, but it gives us a different perspective of the galaxy in the eyes of a Mandalorian instead of a jedi or empire/rebellion soldier's. Same with Book of Boba Fett, instances like the Tusken Raider village which we wouldn't see usually. I haven't watched Andor yet, but I could see Mando or Boba playing a role in helping the rebellion in the future after their stories are finished. Still as of currently they would have no reason to help against the Empire as Boba wants to do his own thing and Mando is a Mando. While neither of their characters are deep and may not play too much of a pivotal role, I think Grogu may. I'm very interested to see where his character goes or what his purpose is in the Star Wars universe. |

I'm not gonna lie, I liked the Bad Batch episode more which is crazy. I'm still so salty about the rushed reunion with Grogu. In fact if he was totally removed from this episode, I think I would've enjoyed it so much more. His role in this one felt unnecessary and he was just there for gags. There was very good worldbuilding in this episode. Greef and Nevarro are now very reminiscent of Lando and Cloud City. Also I'm sure those pirates will be returning for a filler episode. But my hype for Mandalorian remains at an all time low. They are really gonna waste time building an IG-11 mech for Grogu... The detonator was in his chest, how is 90% of his torso still intact? And Mando asking them to tear down the statue because he refuses to get another droid is beyond stupid. But yeah Grogu being there is pissing me off so much lmao. If they simply kept the BOBF episodes as the season 3 premiere, I think it would've been somewhat less annoying. But really they should've just ended the Grogu arc for a little bit. Din doing the Mandalore arc solo would've been so much better. Grogu is dead weight. I agree I would have preferred Mando go on some solo adventures this season without Grogu. I get they made him useful to get to Bo but still, I enjoyed the arc ending/pausing with him getting training from Luke. In BOBF it was super rushed to me how he just pops back up. As soon as I saw Mando go to see Grogu training with Luke it was like something out of a fever dream. |

Episode 1 felt pointless and meandering. Guess Navarro looks nice, but like Obi said a lot of the beats feel kinda contrived. Good news is 2 was better. Seems Bo's getting a more starring role, which is a change I welcome. Mixed thoughts on whether Obi's right about a romance plot though  Big plus is we're getting a mythosaur appearance. All we need is a basilisk wardroid and we've almost reached pique Mando culture embrace. |

In theory Bo-Katan should be around 50. She looks like she’s mid 30s even though Katee is 42. It’s been sticking out to me that Bo doesn’t seem the right age. |

Well if we go by the logic Bo is around like 19-25 in the clone wars, then she's gotta be at least approaching 50 in Mando. I mean it's no big deal, plenty people look pretty youthful at that age, though you'd think her more than stressful lifestyle would see a few wrinkles of stress here and there |

You know, watching the dogfighting in the Kalevala cliffs, it actually felt like Star Wars is back. That was a great sequence. But then they lost me again when it basically turned into an Andor episode lol.
Coruscant did look really good, and I'd say they utilized it much better than Andor because again, F&F are going to be way better at handling the details than Gilroy. There was so much stuff from ROTS and TCW. But still I couldn't appreciate it fully because I'm not sure I liked the story.
Pershing's work on casts I think more or less confirms the Snoke connection. Decommissioning the Alliance fleet sounds like the New Republic demilitarization from the sequel books. And I rather disliked how they portrayed the NR. They didn't feel like the good guys. I can't imagine Luke, Han, and Leia working for these people.
Referring to people by numbers instead of names and the forced lobotomy basically, they came across as assholes. And it's crazy that Pershing never would've done this stuff if the officer lady wasn't encouraging him. It's pretty screwed up but I'm guessing portraying the NR like this is part of the plan to have them fail and give the First Order an opportunity to rise...

For other smaller nitpicks, where did all those TIEs come from? Was there a Star Destroyer nearby? And it bothers me how it still feels like the Imperial remnant has unlimited resources.
And why did Pershing and the officer have to jump from the train? If it stops at a shipyard depot, just buy a ticket, get off there, and then walk to the Star destroyer lol.
Oh and as for Bo's age, honestly that doesn't super bother me that much. I think ages in Star Wars have been pretty inconsistent like Obi-Wan or Cad Bane and Ahsoka even seems to age a lot over TCW even though it was only 4 years. I can just excuse it as different biology for alien species or if they're human, they can have some anti-aging science. Like characters in Cyberpunk 2077 for example will be like 80+ but still look like 40-50 or something

I agree the NR seems out of character from what we should expect… but it’s this kind of poor leadership that makes it more believable that they will fail in the sequel era like you said. Also I guess it could just be showing a dynamic that without the morality of the Jedi the republic is just I guess different? |

They even hinted at it with the rumours when Pershing arrives at the housing. Gideon sent the ties, and Gideon sent the officer as an infiltrator to deal with the doctor. It would make sense for the New Republic to keep it under wraps though if Gideon did escape. Ultimately my theory is that Thrawn is pulling all the strings from the Unknown regions and Gideon directly answers to him at the moment, and then Thrawn answers to Palpatine in some capacity, Snoke probably isn’t in the picture yet so maybe Palpatine just speaks to Thrawn from a far. He has to be alive in some form even if it’s just his essence like in the EU. Also I think Tie Interceptors might have hyperdrives but I’m not sure, they are however the closest model to the Tie Advances that Vader and the Inquisitor's use and they definitely have hyperdrives. |

But it’s clear to me that Gideon answers to someone… there’s no way he’s going through all the effort to capture a powerful force user on his own accord. And we know Thrawn is kicking about giving orders from somewhere as the Magistrate from last season was an associate of his. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ezra was his prisoner all this time. A few questions I guess remain like why didn’t Thrawn return to known space? Unless Palpatine kept him out there to set up the ground work for the First Order which would make sense given he’s from the Unknown regions.

Anyways this was a pretty good episode, there’s a lot of upside at the moment for the rest of the season. Wonder if we will see some tension between Bo and Paz Vizsla. Also wondering what the significance of the Mythosaur is now, I thought it was just a one off Easter egg maybe.

Telling the Mon Calamari "it's a trap" before the mind flare. I like how they portrayed the NR, it reminds me of how certain countries/governments put on the "good guy act" in public but have ulterior motives behind closed doors. That flare was against his will, but based on the intensity meter being low I assume the Empire has harsher "rehablitation" techniques such as memory wipe as Dr P suggested and the Mon Cal denied. Coruscant looked amazing almost realistic for a evolved universe. I think Bo hid the mythosaur from Djin because she wants it for some reason, dubious speculation. Episode was decent, visually great. The living waters shined blue, I was hoping there was some truth to the religion and I like the mystical aspect a lot. The mando in blue hates Djin though, big resentment.

I would’ve loved The Convert if it wasn’t Star Wars, which I have been feeling about a lot of recent content... It was a pretty cool dystopian sci-fi plot, kinda had some Black Mirror vibes.
Hell, I might’ve even accepted it as Star Wars if it was in a different time period. It could’ve worked in the Empire time period or even during the Republic period. I can imagine a lot of corruption under Palpatine’s rule.
But to have the New Republic like this, being almost as bad as the Empire and to have no Jedi around except asshole Luke Skywalker that gives life altering ultimatums to babies… There is literally no hope in the galaxy, no true heroes or good guys. Disney’s post-ROTJ universe is just so bleak.

Easily the worst episode in this show. Acting scripting, pacing, all rubbish. Can't believe how overlong some of those scenes dragged out for (i.e the drinking one by the housing complex). Started so well with Din and Bo, but then it just goes into some unengaging side plot about how poor the NR is (making some much unwelcome ST connections).
I think overall I really dislike it as it just reminds on how poor a job Disney has done in building a post ROTJ world. It would've been nice to see the NR be a fairly half decent/competent government. Would certainly make a nice change from the overly bureaucratic and corrupt old Republic and the evil Empire. Instead we just have to make it another write off regime that'll get blown up in years time all because Disney was frothing for another rebels vs empire narrative.
I understand just adapting some or most of the EU would've seemed a bit of a creative cop out, but I'd rather have that than any of this...

It's weird how many scenes this show has that feel just a little bit too long. I'm always thinking "okay... and cut... now cut" but they keep going lol. For example: The biker scout clowns in the season 1 finale That scene with Grogu in the Razor Crest's maintenance hatch trying to rewire something Grogu in the Nevarro school stealing that kid's macarons I guess they are usually "comedic" bits that go on for too long but the one with Pershing talking to the amnesty guys was not even a bit. They need to edit this stuff down it always takes me out of it. But yeah this basically has to be the worst episode of the show doesn't it? I guess just because of what a departure from the show's core it is. Yeah season 3 is definitely going to be something else. I can see more episodes where Mando takes a backseat and they dive into another character. If the BOBF episodes were supposed to be part of this season then they already had that one with Luke. |

Anyway viewership is down... Again omegalul. Not gonna lie I like seeing Disney take these Ls. I think there's been a consistent decline in views since BOBF which idk how but that one somehow edged out Mando season 2 views by like 2%
D+ is apparently also losing them billions. Deserved and get fucked lmao. Idk how there was any metric where D+ was more successful than other streaming platforms. I really think it is one of the worst streaming services, they literally have no content if you're not a Disney adult.
However I'm actually predicting Mando will see a spike in views at some point this season. People are saying they didn't market it well like a lot of people didn't even know the show started. But they teased another "Luke Skywalker level event" which might bring people back. Man I hope it's not Han or Leia but it probably will be one or both.
Or I guess a lot of people are just done with Star Wars. I think Disney has been hemorrhaging Star Wars fans for a while now. Many checked out after BOBF and OWK and I think most normal people find Andor and Bad Batch boring and don't watch them. They might not tune in for Mando. It's possible the two year break really hurt the show and they lost their momentum. Gina firing also led to many people boycotting though that might not be a large enough number to matter.
Possibly even the casuals that just like baby Yoda are over him now... I know I am. Kinda embarrassing to see Disney desperately trying to keep milking Grogu if people are over it lol. They will likely need a new phenomenon to bring people back

I thought this was a really solid episode. It doesn't bother me that the New Republic isn't this amazing government, it's almost more believable that this new regime is struggling with how to operate after 25+ years of Imperial dictatorship. A few of the scenes dragged a little, but I enjoyed the world building. Plus it was nice seeing Coruscant again.
There's a lot of ways for this season to continue from here. I wonder how much more they'll focus on the New Republic. If they want to bring Gideon/Thrawn into the story, more time with the New Republic might be beneficial. Also curious to see what's next for Bo given she's lost everyone around her and her home.

Was this the best episode so far? I didn't love it but found myself enjoying moments. Had some feel good vibes to it. The order 66 flashback was alright. I guess Coruscant and Knightfall scenes are not super impressive now that we've seen them a couple times.
I think a lot of people, including myself, were expecting Anakin to cut through the door and expecting someone we know to rescue Grogu. But Ahmed Best was a cool choice and actually makes sense. I saw theories like Mace Windu, Quinlan Vos, or Bad Batch rescue him, or Anakin decides to spare him or the Emperor himself is there. I don't think any of that stuff would've felt right. So a special actor being the one has a good effect. It could've been someone like Ryan Reynolds or Tom Hanks or someone and it would've had the same effect if that makes sense.
Nubian ship and guards was kind of weird. I guess they wanted to use a familiar ally but would Naboo side against the Empire like that? Who even sent them? They kinda came out of nowhere.

Also I do like Bo's character in this. I think they're definitely setting her up to go back and kill the Mythosaur and become ruler again or something. But if that's her arc, what about Din? He's already been redeemed, now what? Unless they're going to rule together to try something different but I don't know if I'd like that.
The plot is feeling a little more like season 1 with no clear direction. Season 2 had a pretty tight objective with trying to find a Jedi. I'm guessing Boba will show up in the next one or two episodes for something. And then Imperial stuff for the finale? They really gotta do more with Moff Gideon.

Big plus is we're getting a mythosaur appearance. All we need is a basilisk wardroid and we've almost reached pique Mando culture embrace.
it’s been quite a while. I’ve been pretty good, how about yourself?
