When can we talk about this episode

You can do it now. I'll start.

It sucked. Worst Mando episode I've seen. I was like, "what the hell was that? There was zero tension, all setup for the season. Dumb and a waste."

After I watch it tonight

why on earth would you read this thread if you have not watched it yet?

 

[Jaysus]

P.S. I love how Cara Dune got the Poochie treatment that was :chefkiss:

 

[TripItUp]

I enjoyed the episode

Only complaint was that the pirates were a little cartoonish for me. Favorite part was the little android repair gremlin dudes...those guys were awesome.

Also, why is Grogu back, I thought he went with Luke?

because you didn't watch the Boba Fett show

He’s absolutely right. The writing was abysmal. My 20yo, huge SW fan son and I watched together. Way too often we were both laughing at the writing, not at times where it was supposed to be funny just it seemed like a few middle school kids got together to write. And the actors didn’t make it better.
Pedro is better than this.

Seemed pretty similar to every episode in the show’s history to me?

It is dumb they resolved a huge storyline in another series.

Seems to be polarizing....
My default is that Mando is the best SW series out there. I've liked every episode. I have a hard time believing I won't like this one.

It was as Mando as Mando can be. You'll love it.

oh duh, totally didn't connect those dots...senility is a *****

if you don’t find at least a fair amount of the lines and story cringe worthy, good for you.

Completely agree on the main part. This one was disappointing. Maybe I just had unrealistic expectations.

I thought Ando was the best written show and even that had several cringeworthy moments. It's Star Wars, not Citizen Kane. I am fine with some cheese and eye rolls

Especially when that series sucked

 

[The Z Machine]

I guess Andor ruined my expectations a bit for SW stuff.

 

[Osaurus]

So no Power Rangers in episode 1, right?

i’m 47, I didn’t find anything overly lame about a made up sci fi episode. One thing i do find to be lame is the phrase cringe worthy, get off my lawn

im a sneeze away from throwing out my back

 

[CletiusMaximus]

Just got Disney+ (bundle). Okay to start with this or should I start another series first?

Start with WandaVision

 

[Skipdog77]

I'm worried about the same. LIked all the Mandalorian stuff so far but this episode was a bit underwhelming for me, which is disappointing as a season premier.

Need to get myself out of gritty Andor mode and back into adventure SW mode.

 

[3C's]

Start with WandaVision

Actually have already and several other Marvel series (Loki was fun) while "borrowing" my daughter's Disney login a year or so ago. But never caught any of the SW stuff.

NEWSFLASH: that's how all star wars writing is

Mother****ers acting like this is Shakespeare

this was on par with ep 9. The rest of the shows had been closer to 4-6.

 

[The Z Machine]

They need more Taika. Either writing or acting.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

I still don’t understand how some of you are star wars fans

 

[Andrew74]

I enjoyed it.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

It wasn’t bad. But I was kind of surprised that it just ended somewhat abruptly

 

[CGRdrJoe]

big fan of episode 2

 

[Psychopav]

Now THAT was an episode. Hell yeah!

 

[Capella]

Fun episode. I can’t remember - why is Bo Katan so mopey? Because she lost the dark saber?

 

[TripItUp]

Great episode

 

[TripItUp]

What are the rules around the dark saber again?

 

[Instinctive]

God this show is awesome

 

[Skipdog77]

Fun episode. I can’t remember - why is Bo Katan so mopey? Because she lost the dark saber?

She mentioned in the season premiere that her followers abandoned her when she returned without it. Hence the mopiness.

 

[dkp993]

What are the rules around the dark saber again?

You have to been given it willfully or win it in battle.

 

[Dragons]

What are the rules around the dark saber again?

I don't think this is correct and you can only win it in battle. Mando offered it willfully, but Bo Katan would not (could not) take it.

Did she win it in battle this time? The robot spider creature defeated Din and took the Dark Saber from him. Bo Katan then defeated the creature in battle and has the saber. She should be the true owner now.

 

[-OZ-]

Now THAT was an episode. Hell yeah!

ep 2 was a lot better imo than 1.

 

[Andrew74]

Fun episode. I can’t remember - why is Bo Katan so mopey? Because she lost the dark saber?

What skipdog said. She mentioned how her people’s infighting destroyed them - she was there. She was in Death Watch opposing her sister’s attempt to make Mandalore pacifist, to watch Maul take Death Watch and Mandalore over, kill her sister, plunge Mandalore into civil war, followed by a Republic invasion/occupation, and finally the Empire destroying the planet. She tried to unite the clans to watch it all melt away. Super mopey.

Pretty epic episode.

I don't know the rules for transfer, but I would not say he lost it in battle or she gained it in battle. She was able to use it to save him, but I don't think it's clear who currently posseses it or who will leave with it.

Ultimately, I believe it's not a question of who can hold it or wield it, but who can use it to claim the Mandalore throne.

Din picked it up again after he woke up by the campfire.

 

[The Z Machine]

Also Bo Katan was able to weild it easily whereas Din still struggled with it. Seemed heavy for him and light for her.

Thanks, I didn't catch that.
