The Mandalorian - Season 2 |OT| Wherever I go, he goes [SPOILERS ON EPISODE DROP]
- Thread starter WadiumArcadium
- Start date
- OT
it would be comparable with last season finale having a big name director too
I was thinking the same about the headtails but I assume it was probably a concession they had to make for the action scenes.
The captions will tend to use how others refer to him, since he's pretty much never called Din in the show then he'll still be The Mandalorian.
It could be kinda confusing otherwise for the hearing impaired to refer to him otherwise, since there isn't always a clear indication he's talking either.
ahsoka said she only knew another one like him
and im likeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, was that a mistake or did yaddle died by the time ashoka started her training?
And I hope not, because these 'all is connected'-style of writing can lead to weak storytelling. Stories can't stand on their own anymore, and the connection becomes more important than the drama. It's often also straightly aimed at the audience, in stead of at the characters. The connections becomes the point. This show already suffers from it (I muttered 'oh come the fuck on' in dutch at 'Where is Admiral Thrawn?'). In stead of emotional beats for the characters, we get 'reveal' beats for the audience
So let that Obi-Wan series please be just an Obi-Wan on Tatooine looking out over young Luke series
only going to read the replies to my question as to not spoil myself before i watch this going to bed.
please tell me Ahsoka reveal is amazing
please tell me Ahsoka reveal is amazing
Micheal Biehn with a jobbing role didn't sit well with me.
I liked the episode, but Ahsoka's montral and lekkus are too short, I guess to look better in live action and let Rosario act better, but... I don't like them.
And Ahsoka goes to do a lot of flips and cool movements to lost a lightsaber against a normal person (Is trained but she can defeat Vader come on).
I hope the Ahsoka series is CGI.

It's for the preservation of their species. Theres no love, so it's okay. Lol
I'm a bit worried about that, too. I know a lot of fans prefer that style of storytelling, but I've really enjoyed Mando's relatively narrow focus until now. I tend to like the rambling, monster-of-the-week style episodes, and hope the show doesn't become so heavily bogged down in interconnected lore that I have to watch and read a dozen other series just to derive a strong emotional attachment to it.
Yaddle stepped down from the Council and removed herself almost entirely from Jedi affairs after the Battle of Naboo. Ahsoka would have been about four years old when that happened so it's entirely possible she just never encountered Yaddle.
Technically, the Jedi do love, they're just against forming strong attachments.
After TLJ and TROS and the sequel trilogy in general and everything about it... I honestly don't give a shit.
Give me more fanfic story-telling!
...I'll see myself out.
What if she removed herself because she had Grogu?
Filoni is such a madlad he created Grogu to bring back Yaddle
I literally had a smile creeping on a chuckle when I heard that.
"Who's gonna win?"
Uh, what, is this a social call?
Would you say, it's Grogu'ing on you?
... I'll see myself out.
Exactly! I like it for the Star Wars fun and I do like me some lore, but the balance here is - like not uncomon with Filoni - way of. Lore should support the story, not be the story.
I had this issue already with the first season, where the 'drama' seemed to be more centered about 'showing Mandalorian culture' than you know... a character. This season has gone all in with the cameo's and namedrops and I just sigh...
Grogu would have been born 9 years before the Battle of Naboo, so that doesn't quite match up. We still don't know what happened to Yaddle after that other than a vague vision Vader has in a comic book a couple years ago. Could be she was responsible for rescuing Grogu from the Temple during the attack in RotS.
I still hold to the theory that Grogu is a creation of the Sith through the midi-chlorians. Hell, it's entirely possible that Yoda's species hatches from eggs, which would make it even easier for Grogu to have been "seeded" by Plagueis and Palpatine's messing about and then the egg "found" by the Jedi after some anonymous tips from Sheev. Having a long term Trojan Horse in the Order would have been a pretty solid and in-character plan for Sidious, but then Anakin came along and proved way easier and faster to manipulate.
Anakin could be the response of the force for plageuis and sidious creating Grogu
I think that's exactly right. There's no way it's a coincidence Grogu and Anakin were born the same year.
