You could hear the long sigh of the last dude as he looked back at the explosion

I don't think things move that quick with this show. That's, like, end of season stuff if not next season. Haha.
Mando is the worst dad. "A baby can hotwire a ship. Right? Hey baby! don't touch those two wires together!"
Baby Yoda - "I don't know what the hell you're saying! I'm a Godman baby! What happens if these wires t-AAAAAHHHH!"

The Child is literally the worst. Little shit is eating babies and stealing Oreos and I love it. 🤣
Same. The concept art is so so good. I was just talking about this with my wife tonight. It would be so great if they were exactly able to deliver that vision.The end credits theme and the concept art are my two favourite aspects of this show.
I wasn't feeling the first half of the episode, but once they escaped the base I had a blast. That entire chase sequence was fun, and I absolutely loved the shot composition when the Razor Crest did that mid-air u-turn. I just wish the TIE fighters weren't quite so incompetent. :D
Not as consistently good as the other episodes, but everything past the reactor self destruction was fun. I'm so glad my kid is a toddler during this because Baby Yoda's actions keep mirroring a lot of his behaviors.
The base infiltration felt like the opening level to Jedi Outcast in so many ways and I am here for it. This episode had a ton of deep cuts to those games that I'm also here for and this slow drip feeding of references to the Sequel trilogy dot joining it basic but satisfying.
Why is Kyle Katarn such a popular character? Never played the games with him in it.
My wife is so tired of me saying that my daughter reminds me of baby yoda 😅
He is literally the best and worst dad of all time!
Also, do we know baby yoda's sex?
The stormtroopers randomly crashing on their speederbikes in the beginning of the chase scene was the funniest shit I have ever seen in SW lmaooo
Dark Forces and its sequels were awesome.
Dark Forces really does not get the recognition it deserves for being one of the foundational early FPS games that brought some really new ideas to the genre.

Yeah this episode got a little too close to the Rebels issue of Stormtrooper incompetence ruining the drama/fun of things. I think it was just due to the fact there were so many action and chase scenes that the stakes against Stormtroopers could only last so long. Clone Wars got around it by having a larger cast and bigger army so a couple good guys could bite it too to beef up the drama. It was still pretty darn fun though.
Dark Forces was the first fps I played and it holds a special place in my gamin heart
The entire time they were sneaking around the base, hiding from Stormtroopers, I was thinking, "Why? They're just Stormtroopers."
Yeah, my brain hasn't been to recognize them as a threat in a very long time, and I'm kinda bummed by that. The scene where the two dudes in uniform who shot the panel when the party arrived was more interesting than any shootout, chase or dogfight with a stormtrooper.

Is this the first time we see characters mentioning midi-chlorians in the new canon (outside of the prequel trilogy)?
I feel like people complaining about the structure of the show just want the show to be something different from what it is. In a way it's a perfect callback to the origins of Star Wars, being an "adventure of the week," serialized sci-fi show. I feel like people are expecting something more like an 8 hour movie, when that's not what this is.
Also, regardless of what you think of the show, I think the ending

was an amazing way to tie the show to the ST. It's scary to know that if those really were Snoke clones, Gideon probably succeeded somehow.
This was the first episode of season 2 that I didn't really enjoy. I wanted more substance and story about the lab and what was taking place there. More...narrative.
Instead of giving us more of that we got like 10+ minute chase scene, which was pretty dull and replete with very trite attempts at comedy.

Yup, plus the cloning stuff.
All after the reactor was good shit.
still though, it's like I'm watching an uncharted game but every time it gets to some really cool info, it immediately goes to action sequence/chase scene. You have to allow time to chill on the narrative, the cloning stuff is insanely interesting and it's an oh shit moment that gets immediately trashed by a escape and chase scene.
not Everything has to be Michael bay
Since this is set a long, long time ago I think we now have to think of those as officially an ancient alien thing...
Throw enough of something at something else and eventually the something else will be overwhelmed. It's like how I can take on a single bee by myself and be fine but over 100 of them and I'm fucked.
not explained yet in any detail, some experiment they're doing using the blood of a force sensitive (baby)
trying to artificially create force sensitives? sith cloning? but so far all theyve managed to pump out are abominations it looks like
but like
what if they're making snoke (well, trying. unsuccessfully so far)

Haha thanks.. So this is the end game? Baby yoda vs. Empire clone yodas?
The chase scene as straight out of squadrons cutscene. This show is a video game and I like it!
I don't understand how they sneak into a base that large without anyone noticing.

They were starting to notice, but Mando & co. beelined for the security office or w/e and took control, disabling cameras and such. Wanna say that was the first thing they did after breaking in.
The empire is incompetent. They couldn't track that speeder? No one hears blaster fire when mando flew to the top deck? I dig it.
Also Mando from season1 would automatically shoot at robots because of being robots.
He knows she ain't masking up. Can't risk the kid's health.
I don't think there's much they can do in terms of character development so long as they continue to hamstring themselves with the length of the episodes. You can't cram in that, action, episode set ups, etc, in 30-40 minute chunks. I have to imagine the show eats quite a bit of the budget, too, but at this point it's the only thing keeping Star Wars alive.
I really hope they find a way to expand to 50-60 minute episodes. I think doing so would allow them to expand the characters in ways everyone might expect, but it might also be beyond the scope of the show.
