The opening sequence was great. I loved it when they were practicing their “marksmanship.”
I don’t get this either. You are right, the Siege of Mandalore was ~30 years before this episode. We know that Kenobi and Maul were on Mandalore. Ashoka is supposed to be on Mandalore during this as well. I guess the upcoming season of The Clone Wars will fill all this in.
I don’t get the lack of knowledge about the Jedi, either. Is the universe so big vs even the hundreds/thousands of Jedi that they aren’t well known outside the core worlds? Mandalorians and Jedi fought many wars, and the darksaber itself was made by a Mandalorian Jedi. Are we to believe that all the Mandalorians in this show were exiles/ex pats that weren’t around Mandalore during the siege time period and only some knew of ancient myths?
Regarding Luke, did everyone know he was a Jedi and that was published far and wide? Did people even know Palpatine was a Sith or even a force wielder? Some seem to know about Vader but even then his own Imperial officers call it an “ancient religion” as if it was some sect from eons ago. It’s all confusing.

I think Sabine gave it to Bo-Katan.
Massive nerdgasm when that came out. My wife and daughter looked at me sideways.

SPOILERS NERDS
So I thought the guy who helped him out of the hole as a kid was Boba Fett. Was I wrong? Generations too late I imagine
Did we ever figure out who was the guy in the desert with the spurs from a few episodes ago?
is the Mando actor the guy from that drug lord series on Netflix some time ago, about Pablo Escobar? He’s been good. Also love the guy from Breaking Bad.
this is the way

Ahhhhh. Otis you May be right he did look like that drug actor. Hard to tell with different hair and the blood booger.

It likely wasn’t Boba Fett, who probably isn’t that much older than Mando in the timeline. Looks like it was someone from the group Death Watch that rescued him. They played a big role in the Clone Wars series

Guess so, and I am used to that around here. I didn't know he was considered an elite director by the masses now.
Mostly the comment was for preferring it to go the marvel style and having an overarching vision, but dont get in a rut of having the same director for a bunch of movies.

Third one was an absolutely terrible movie, first was insanely boring and the second was really good. All took themselves way too serious, it’s a comic book movie not world war 2.

Agree 3rd was the weakest and was a bit scattered. 2nd was a masterpiece despite drawn out ending.

The Russo brothers directed Winter Solider, Civil War, Infinity War and End Game.
I'll take a rut like that any day

For sure. Maybe if they are burnt out on Marvel, let them give Star Wars a go.The Russo brothers directed Winter Solider, Civil War, Infinity War and End Game.

It would get a little repetitive if they did them all though. I really like having the different directors and styles of the other characters and movies. I love Winter Soldier, but I dont think I want all the movies to have that tone and style.

I was not advocating that they take on Star Wars, I was just giving a MCU example of where the same director can make plenty of good movies in a row.
I prefer consistency in my story telling. I want the story, writing style and directing style to have a similar look and feel, movie to movie, else we end up with a completely disjointed trilogy like we had when JJ and Johnson were working from completely different view points. It did not feel like one story in the end as they kept retconning each other.

You hate Marvel but like Favreau. That seems inconsistent to me. He produced or directed 7 Marvel movies.

My understanding is that he was on set exactly for one day to wear the suit for that scene.

I did not realize he was only being a voice actor in the series. I thought he was in the suit the whole time. Good info!

Sucks that queef is really dead. Great character

Apparently he is in the suit more this season. Was John Wayne’s grandson wearing it almost exclusively this one. Not sure if this is top secret or not ....

I read the only time it was exclusive was episode 4 since Pedro was in some broadway show. Other episodes it was split.

I thought the beginning of this episode, with the funny banter between the storm troopers, was hilarious, but also SO Favreau/Marvel-like. Enjoyed it.
