I’m pretty sure Boba Fett came back to pickup the sniper in I believe the 6-7 episode. He had the same helmet noise and his boots made the spur sound when he walked
I heard it's not that the Empire dissolved in new canon, but that Palpatine had a plan in place to destroy it from within after his death, because "an Empire that fails to protect it's Emperor doesn't deserve to exist", and he had no plans of dying by old age anytime soon.
@livefastdieyoung26 I agree that episode IX was a huge disappointment but mandalorian feels like "real" star wars and is a breath of fresh air from what disney has made us accustomed to, thank you Dave Filoni
Rogue One in my opinion is also really good. It's certainly not perfect but it too has that Star Wars feel to it and I love the thematic emphasis on hope and self sacrifice. It's definitely the best out of the 5 movies Disney has made. Really Disney's real problem right now is that it lacks proper leadership and direction. Anyone with half a brain could've known that trying to have 3 different directors direct the individual portions of a trilogy would be a bad idea. It's why Last Jedi does not at all feel like a sequel to Force Awakens. It's honestly just a standalone movie trying to pass off as sequel and it shows. There's just no cohesion in the new trilogy. Honestly at this point I'd rather they give the reins to Filoni, the dude has the experience and has actual passion and love towards Star Wars unlike JJ and Rian. He'd easily be able to churn out quality films if given the time and resources. Here's hoping Disney learns from its mistakes.
@@rhymenoceros3303 rogue one the mandalorian and the force awakens are the only Disney made star wars I accept as canon VIII and IX don't count and solo was just a disappointment.
Am I the only one who really enjoyed the scene with the 2 scout troopers just talking and waiting? You always see theese thousands of soldiers with no face, but now we can tell there are acctually people under the helmet
Same here. It reminds me of the scene in a New Hope. Where the 2 stormtroopers are guarding the generator talking new blasters that the Empire is getting.
I loved that scene. It reminded me of clone troopers in the clone wars series being humanised. Giving them an identity/personality when they all look the same. Plus, they were funny. And missing the target 😅
I love the Mandalorian! It's way better than any of the last three Star Wars movies. I don't care for the new trilogy, the Mandalorian captures the true essence of the original trilogy in Star Wars and 'that is the way' to do it properly. : )
Honestly the force awakens I think gets a bad rub cause the other 2 suck but the force awakens wasn't half bad. It left lot of potential for the next 2 which was utterly squandered.
This series plus the Mandalorian arch of the Clone Wars, makes me think there are three factions of Mandalorian, the blood thirsty Death Watch, the pacifist New Mandalorian who "rule" Mandalore the planet, and the nomadic Tribal society of the Mandalorian people aka true Mandalorians.
There are other tribes too but all are scattered across the galaxy. Sabine tried to unite them in Rebels but we don't know what happened to Bo Katan after she was declared Mandalore
I like the client’s monologue about how corrupt and lawless the galaxy is under the New Republic and how the Empire was harsh but safe. Hope they explore this more rather than sticking with simply “Empire bad”
i could imagine that they will indeed explore that more. Everything in the Mandalorian isnt really good or bad. Mando himself eventually does the good thing but nevertheless i think in his past he has done some things that aren't good. So it would be pretty nice to see them show the Empire from a different view
That’s the only thing I think lends the New Trilogy any credibility. The idea that all of us are both light and dark is one reason so many of love Legends so much.

Best to think of legends not so much as "a universe, discarded" but rather as "a drosspile to sort through to recover leftover or overlooked gems". This is what Filoni started doing with "the clone wars" and "rebels". Dragging stuff from "legends", giving it a new spin, some polish, and making it canon.

I don't understand how Yoda was teaching Jedi at age 100 but "Baby Yoda" cannot even talk yet by age 50. Was Baby Yoda's mom too fond of spice and corellian ale?
Maybe they develop similarly to how humans do in their teenage years. Large growth spurts. After a certain age they develop much faster than their younger years.
chris blees keep in mind though dude we don’t know Jack shit about Boda, for all we know he CAN speak and is thinking shit through. We’re seeing him from everyone else’s point of view, he’s a stranger and totally “alien” from everything else. We’re still learning more and more you know?
There's so many possible explanations. Maybe baby yoda isn't actually 50. Or they just age very differently to us. It's totally possible they'd develop very slowly for 50-60 years then have like a yoda-puberty for a decade which makes them fully developed at 60/70. Maybe their growth is determined by some external factor, like the force. Let's say they grow slower but age more rapidly when the dark side is strong for example. So bby yoda grew slowly because of the dominance of palpatine since his birth, whilst yoda grew to adulthood quicker in a more peaceful time.
Yeah I liked the idea of the Empire dissolving into warring factions and the rebel rumps being defeated and offered amnesty and absorbed into the New Republic. Unlike Rise of Skywalker where they just murdered the entirety First Order, either straight up crashing their Star Destroyers or leaving them to starve trapped around Exegol, painting the death of tens of thousands of people as a heroic victory.
Mandalorian has brought me back to loving star wars again the story telling and the indepth research these guys did is amazing i have been a star wars fan since 1977 since first film was out. i had the toys and one thing just made me shout out when i see it was in mandalorian episode 7 was the imperial troop transporter the toy was never in the movies but released kenner toys the detail of the transporter in mandalorian was down to every detail as the toy i was just amazed to see that in there.
Thank you Geetsly for this video i have a group of people who are watching it and constantly asking me questions about it this deffinately makes it easier for me cause im sending it to all of them
I’ve always agreed with the legends ending with the break up of the empire. It seems way more realistic and gives more story and shows the true power the empire had over the galaxy. The books and other content are so good because you can make so many stories about it ( my fav series being x-wing). I also really like how it’s more balanced with the empire winning and rebels winning which keeps true balance. My other favourite part of legends is thrawn because he nearly makes a great comeback. Basically tlegends does it better than canon
Well there have been really bad books (Crystal Star is unreadable for me) but the ratio of great content to bad one was much better in Legends. I am still sore for not having the Sword of the Jedi Trilogy... I miss Jagged Fel.
So out of curiosity we see in star wars the clone wars and star wars rebels mandalorians taking their helmets off so is it just this one group of mandalorians that doesn't take off their helmets i would love an explination if you could make a video that'd be AWESOME but a simple answer will do fine if you don't wanna take the time. I really love the videos thanks for all the hard work you put into them.
I've watched a video on this. I believe it's because The Mandalorian wasn't a born mando and feels taking his helmet off would mean giving up his identity as one. It's more than likely his own decision and not anything to do with culture.
There are lines of dialogue in Mandalorian that mention something of a "Purge" committed by the Empire against the Mandos. Looking at Rebels and Clone Wars and seeing how different their culture is (including no apparent taboo about helmet removal), it seems to me like in the BBY years Mandalorians were as the new canon: human and based in blood-related clans. However, likely after the events of Rebels where they sided with the Alliance, the Empire attempted to remove their culture from the galaxy. After which desperate measures were needed to keep the culture alive. This ironically parallels the story of the reptilian Mandalorians: they opened their culture to other races and people after their own dwindled to near extinction.
Subject: later episode(7) taming of the droid. Will IG-11 get back his skills but keep his learned "protector" and "friend" role. I predict the first recorded event of 'Droid Rage'. Iggy will save the day; In a most triumphant and UTTERLY violent way, i predict the most violence yet..
@@crimsonboop902 i never would have called the tie fighter exit scene... it leaves SO MUCH PLOT for next season - Retreive the blade of his people? Train the child/meet rogue jedi who might give him some blade training?! SO EXCITED I guess we know why they Hired a Master fencer to play our Mando.
The Mandarlorian is simply quality storytelling crafted by folks that truly appreciate the subject matter. The likes of Favreau come from a time when TV captured people’s (children’s) imagination, the dialogue, images, music and special effects combine to entertain. Can’t wait to see how season 2 develops - more of the same please .....
The Mandalorian gave me hope for Star Wars again. After The Last Jedi I was pretty much done, that movie crapped on decades of world building and completely missed the point of the franchise. Glad to see there's still some people involved that know what Star Wars is all about.
The mandalorian changed a rule you must keep your helmet on. Is that just a clan rile or no. Previzla and sabine both took off their helmets so I'm confused a video to clarify would help
theres a few running around, one is its just a clan rule which is prob the simplest but lamest excuse, 2nd most popular is foundlings my not be able to take of their helmets till they have earned a signet.
Dude, you totally forgot something. This might only make it as an honorable mention, but the use of klatooinians in an episode references the fate of the Jedi book series where klatooinians are heavily used across much of the series. They are found virtually nowhere else.
So far to my knowledge the known members of Yoda's species are Yoda, Yadle, The Child and the Jedi Master that's in KOTOR during the battle at the Starforge.
“What legends did was far better” is a statement that needs no follow-up. But I agree the Mandalorian is amazing for so many reasons, surface and deep.
@@othtorpotato9960 BD Armory doesn't have hand held weapons ... You'd need SM Small Arms or OrX The Loot Box Controversy (formerly BD FPS) to do that (would also need KIS)
It is possible to have internet and not know about baby yoda. Somehow my mom, who is active online, hadn’t seen or heard of baby yoda, and she’s a Star Wars fan. I said hold my lightsaber, and that day I went over and we watched the Mandalorian.
I'm curious to see where they take it. It isn't flawless as no star wars work ever is. It is infinitely more satisfying and sensably written than the Disney Farce Wars movies. They actually bother to worry about silly things like character motives, and seeing to plot holes before the story gets stuck in them. Imagine that the Mando trained since childhood and he still isn't a perfect warrior. "Cough and glare at MaReySu" they even did "strong female characters" better in the form of the blacksmith and Cara Dune.
Cara Dune is a fucking badass. I love everything about her character, her strengths, her weaknesses, her motives, her back story. You see Disney! THATS how you fucking write a god damn strong female character. Fucking Mary Rey Sue is a fucking travesty and a mistake, poorly written, and extremely shallow. Shes as wide as a puddle and about as deep as the water on my bathroom floor when my toilet overflows.
I wouldn't say it's a masterpiece, but I *did* watch all 8 episodes in one night, so I do like it very much. I'm definitely looking forward to Season 2.
Both beskar and warlords were already canon. Beskar was mentioned in Rebels (Sabine's super weapon was specifcally tuned to target beskar and kill those inside it), and Warlords were mentioned in at the least Alphabet Squadron and I'm pretty sure there were warlords mentioned also in the Aftermath trilogy books.
6:31 Just want to say, both the First and Final Order are the old Empire. I'm surprised how many people ignore this. Basically they took the "Dark Empire" in the comics to its extreme, where most Imperials never stopped being loyal to Sidious. Their "fall" on Jakku and Operation Cinder were more or less a front to make it look like they had crumbled quickly. Hell they practically flat out say the Imperial remnant are fleeing to the Unknown regions in both Battlefront 2 and the Aftermath Trilogy. Honestly it'd be a surprise to see more Warlords than what we have now. Anyways sorry, the rest is good lol.
I mean, it kinda makes sense. They didn't want to be tied to everything any random person has written, and they didn't want to explicitly pick and choose, but that doesn't mean they don't still like some of the stories. The whole point of it being "legends" is that any of it COULD be true unless it contradicts canon, but they aren't going to say for sure one way or the other.
@@danieljensen2626 "They didn't want to be tied to everything any random person has written" That's why their core of serie, sequel trilogy, totally doesn't make sense.
Given Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau's involvement in The Mandalorian it's no surprise that a ton of Star Wars Expanded Universe (EU) stuff was put in there.
Looks like disney got those "30 years time gap" as materials to make new stories leading to the force awaken, and i hope they would make good stories like the mandalorian. They might even make a show about luke training kylo ren, anothey jedi stuff yeay
Great video! I think the biggest problem I have with the sequel movies is the lack of backround. Like you said, it seems unlogic that the empire just disappeared and made a much greater army, the first order. And they did not even explain why and how the new republic failed. For me it was really hard to follow, because apparently the rebels did not change their position since they were still a resistance in the 7th movie. Although they won the battle of endor and in legends started to build the new republic.
I can’t wait to rewatch the mandalorian. I first watched it without watching clone wars or rebels, so I had no idea who the mandalorians were and how the fetts fit in with them. I’m in the middle of rebels and I’m goin to watch it after.
The child is said to be 50 years old. 50 years previous to this the galactic Republic was in order and both Yagle and Yoda are in the Jedi order. We only ever see yagle in the phantom meneace and theirs no explanation as to what happened to her. So my theory is, YODA and yagle had a child, were afraid of what the Jedi would think, and yagle left to raise the child, but died and then the child was left floating around from place to place until the vents of the mandalorian. It’s far-fetched, but the time fits in well and links up pretty seamlessly, if you see a flaw in this theory please point it out to me
One minor thing you didn't mention: on the prison ship episode the guard droids bore the emblem of the New Republic as seen in legends (starbird surrounded by a ring of stars), rather than the new canon emblem (starbird over a starburst-looking shape).
Rebels mentioned beskar alloy before the mandalorian even existed. The show raised a pretty serious question though, because they’ve got a very short time between the hero’s of mandalore arch of rebels and the end of the empire to shoe in the near extermination of an entire culture, especially one so hardy as the mandalorians
I think you're incorrect about the Empire just disappearing. Aftermath mentions and implies that there were a bunch of warlords and various Imperial remnants existing for a long time after the the initial fall of Jakku
This show is the way! There are so many good camios and nods to other spin off series. I love how both John Favro and Dave Faloney have made appearances.
Hearing you speak of how the Imperial disintegrates in one year in canon kinds of make me think that it's a smokescreen to throw at the Republic because it's probably merely a camouflage in order to preserve the fighting bulk of the Imperial force for the upcoming First Order comeback.
I always thought the Mando's weapon was really similar looking and function to the Cycler in SWBF (Battlefront) which fired a type of kinetic slug surrounded by energy instead of normal blaster energy bolts. It was a 1 shot kill in the game if you got headshots and I think was said to have been used by Tuscan Raiders/Sand People on Tatooine. Combined with the fact that in Empire Vader tells Boba Fett "No Disintegration!" Seemed like maybe they took the two added a crazy cattle prod and boom!
One great thing about the Mandalorian is the score. It’s innovative and poignant, and perfectly fits the space-cowboy (space-samurai?) feel of the story. If you’re not a musician or into film scores, you may not think about it, but just consider for a moment how different the Mandalorian’s music is to John Williams’ scores for all the Star Wars movies. They’re like hallmarks of the old tradition of orchestral film scores, brought to the near heights of their medium. Meanwhile the Mandalorian strikes out apart from that tradition with an eerie, sparse, electronic score, nearly the opposite of the lush acoustic sound of John Williams. It’s kind of brilliant.
Not really, Legends spent years in the making with many contemt creators collabing to make sure their stories were intertwined together and didn't feel so disconnected. Disney doesn't give a fuck as shown by their treatment of the Rise of Skywalker after some comic authors actually spent time trying to fix things that RoS completely shut away
I like they were able to make the comedy parts actually funny, and not campy like the movies have been. Like come on, the scene with the Scout Troopers is priceless.
George Lucas: I don’t want to name Yoda’s species to keep it mysterious. Anyone: So the Force is going tl remain mysterious too? George Lucas: Oh hell no! Imma explain that shit. Midichlorians, son! That’s the conduit of the Whills. SMDH.
Because it's true but that's canon. In Legends Jango and Boba are Mando's. But after the last Jedi don't see canon in the same way. So yeah they're Mando's
I'm definitely in for a Mandalorian video game 9:11. I play Titanfall 2 with the Grapple Hook tactical ability exclusively, and it feels like I'm Boba Fett on steroids! This is such a great, fast-paced game. I'd like to see a mod with Mando-skins and weapons.
I think it is far to say that Mandalorians are both a people and a way of life, given that the ancient Mandalorians all interbred with one another, both those born into it and adopted by them and became a thing where one follows the creed and has a people/family upon following it. Like the Dothraki of game of thrones.
the Mandalorian: far to great to be part of Disney Star Wars. i consider it part of Star Wars Expanded Universe/Legends. *this is the way.* *i have spoken.*

Was Baby Yoda's mom too fond of spice and corellian ale?
Maybe they develop similarly to how humans do in their teenage years. Large growth spurts. After a certain age they develop much faster than their younger years.
chris blees keep in mind though dude we don’t know Jack shit about Boda, for all we know he CAN speak and is thinking shit through. We’re seeing him from everyone else’s point of view, he’s a stranger and totally “alien” from everything else. We’re still learning more and more you know?
The spice extends life and expands consciousness, so I guess?
Speak well either, Yoda did not. Master of conjunctions, he was not.
There's so many possible explanations. Maybe baby yoda isn't actually 50. Or they just age very differently to us. It's totally possible they'd develop very slowly for 50-60 years then have like a yoda-puberty for a decade which makes them fully developed at 60/70.
Maybe their growth is determined by some external factor, like the force. Let's say they grow slower but age more rapidly when the dark side is strong for example. So bby yoda grew slowly because of the dominance of palpatine since his birth, whilst yoda grew to adulthood quicker in a more peaceful time.
Love it, feels like Star Wars in the universe of Firefly.
youtude y as no other Star Wars remotely felt close to firefly, yes, firefly did exists before the mandalorian.
youtude y I know! Star Wars was THE FIRST sci-fi movie ever and any show about space is SO ripping them
Off.
Shiny!
Yeah I liked the idea of the Empire dissolving into warring factions and the rebel rumps being defeated and offered amnesty and absorbed into the New Republic. Unlike Rise of Skywalker where they just murdered the entirety First Order, either straight up crashing their Star Destroyers or leaving them to starve trapped around Exegol, painting the death of tens of thousands of people as a heroic victory.
Mandalorian has brought me back to loving star wars again the story telling and the indepth research these guys did is amazing i have been a star wars fan since 1977 since first film was out. i had the toys and one thing just made me shout out when i see it was in mandalorian episode 7 was the imperial troop transporter the toy was never in the movies but released kenner toys the detail of the transporter in mandalorian was down to every detail as the toy i was just amazed to see that in there.
That intro with the Original battlefront just hit me with so much nostalgia
Thank you Geetsly for this video i have a group of people who are watching it and constantly asking me questions about it this deffinately makes it easier for me cause im sending it to all of them
With all the Mandalorian related vids I am surprised no one has talked about Kal Skirata and his clan on clones.
Good ol Kal'buir
People have look at generation tech
Republic commando series was one of my favourites, unfortunately it is no longer canon.
@@s45quatch19 it's canon to real star wars fans
Love Republic Commando too bad it never got finished. Loved the perspective of the commandos during the war.
I’ve always agreed with the legends ending with the break up of the empire. It seems way more realistic and gives more story and shows the true power the empire had over the galaxy. The books and other content are so good because you can make so many stories about it ( my fav series being x-wing). I also really like how it’s more balanced with the empire winning and rebels winning which keeps true balance. My other favourite part of legends is thrawn because he nearly makes a great comeback. Basically tlegends does it better than canon
The X-wing series was awesome, I especially liked the wraith squadron story. Corran Horn's storyline has to be one of my favourites
Well there have been really bad books (Crystal Star is unreadable for me) but the ratio of great content to bad one was much better in Legends.
I am still sore for not having the Sword of the Jedi Trilogy...
I miss Jagged Fel.
So out of curiosity we see in star wars the clone wars and star wars rebels mandalorians taking their helmets off so is it just this one group of mandalorians that doesn't take off their helmets i would love an explination if you could make a video that'd be AWESOME but a simple answer will do fine if you don't wanna take the time. I really love the videos thanks for all the hard work you put into them.
It was likely a cultural change after the purge, but a video would be nice
But if this were a change made after the purge, then it wouldn't have also happened in star wars rebels.
I've watched a video on this. I believe it's because The Mandalorian wasn't a born mando and feels taking his helmet off would mean giving up his identity as one. It's more than likely his own decision and not anything to do with culture.
Evan Stanley that would make sense but we have never seen another mandolorian take of their helmet
@@gnk-seriespowerdroid4405 Did you read my comment? I said it's more than likely his own decision.
There are lines of dialogue in Mandalorian that mention something of a "Purge" committed by the Empire against the Mandos.
Looking at Rebels and Clone Wars and seeing how different their culture is (including no apparent taboo about helmet removal), it seems to me like in the BBY years Mandalorians were as the new canon: human and based in blood-related clans. However, likely after the events of Rebels where they sided with the Alliance, the Empire attempted to remove their culture from the galaxy. After which desperate measures were needed to keep the culture alive.
This ironically parallels the story of the reptilian Mandalorians: they opened their culture to other races and people after their own dwindled to near extinction.
On the Helmet Removal part, I think that became a stricter part of their culture after the Purge. That's just me, though.

@@hooptiej i know, right? such potential! what a time to be a star wars fan
6:28 "Because, well, it made sense." Shit, that had me laughing
The Mandarlorian is simply quality storytelling crafted by folks that truly appreciate the subject matter. The likes of Favreau come from a time when TV captured people’s (children’s) imagination, the dialogue, images, music and special effects combine to entertain. Can’t wait to see how season 2 develops - more of the same please .....
The Mandalorian gave me hope for Star Wars again. After The Last Jedi I was pretty much done, that movie crapped on decades of world building and completely missed the point of the franchise. Glad to see there's still some people involved that know what Star Wars is all about.
The mandalorian changed a rule you must keep your helmet on. Is that just a clan rile or no. Previzla and sabine both took off their helmets so I'm confused a video to clarify would help
theres a few running around, one is its just a clan rule which is prob the simplest but lamest excuse, 2nd most popular is foundlings my not be able to take of their helmets till they have earned a signet.
Those are more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual "rules," you see. - Cap't. Barbossa
Or rizla and sabine weren't foundlings. They were born mandolorian
The Mandalorian is my favorite show of 2019 next to My Hero Academia S4.👌
Yoda was a member of the Schwartz clan wasn't he ? May the Schwartz be with you.
Yes he was the Schwartz clan was great in the art of merchandising you know where the real money from the movie is made.
Mason P hahahaha YES! I quote Yogurt all the time. I’m disappointed they never made the sequel, “Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money” xD
@@mattfairfield9103 They'll get to that right after "History of the World: Part 2." See! Hitler on Ice! :D
jedironin380 hahahahaha yes 🤣
Dude, you totally forgot something. This might only make it as an honorable mention, but the use of klatooinians in an episode references the fate of the Jedi book series where klatooinians are heavily used across much of the series. They are found virtually nowhere else.
So far to my knowledge the known members of Yoda's species are Yoda, Yadle, The Child and the Jedi Master that's in KOTOR during the battle at the Starforge.
Master Vandar also appeared earlier in the game, on Dantooine.
There are also a few that show up in SWTOR.
Minch, Oteg, and an unnamed member with his face carved into the wall of the Valley of the Jedi.
@@AstralElephantFuzz Vandar was who i was referring to.
“What legends did was far better” is a statement that needs no follow-up. But I agree the Mandalorian is amazing for so many reasons, surface and deep.
You guys are so blinded by nostalgia. Legends is just jam packed with terrible repetitive additions to the universe. It's really nothing special.
They really should name the kid Yogurt of the Schwartz
Add the mandalorian's rifle to BDArmory

Sorry
you forgot to mention that the mount that he rides is from the Ewoks: The Battle for Endor movie
It is possible to have internet and not know about baby yoda. Somehow my mom, who is active online, hadn’t seen or heard of baby yoda, and she’s a Star Wars fan. I said hold my lightsaber, and that day I went over and we watched the Mandalorian.
I'm curious to see where they take it. It isn't flawless as no star wars work ever is. It is infinitely more satisfying and sensably written than the Disney Farce Wars movies. They actually bother to worry about silly things like character motives, and seeing to plot holes before the story gets stuck in them. Imagine that the Mando trained since childhood and he still isn't a perfect warrior. "Cough and glare at MaReySu" they even did "strong female characters" better in the form of the blacksmith and Cara Dune.
Cara Dune is a fucking badass. I love everything about her character, her strengths, her weaknesses, her motives, her back story.
You see Disney! THATS how you fucking write a god damn strong female character. Fucking Mary Rey Sue is a fucking travesty and a mistake, poorly written, and extremely shallow. Shes as wide as a puddle and about as deep as the water on my bathroom floor when my toilet overflows.
New Subscriber.liked the comparison of legends and canon. I am LEGENDS!
I wouldn't say it's a masterpiece, but I *did* watch all 8 episodes in one night, so I do like it very much. I'm definitely looking forward to Season 2.
Your intro brings me back such nostalgia...
Wonderful coverage.
Both beskar and warlords were already canon. Beskar was mentioned in Rebels (Sabine's super weapon was specifcally tuned to target beskar and kill those inside it), and Warlords were mentioned in at the least Alphabet Squadron and I'm pretty sure there were warlords mentioned also in the Aftermath trilogy books.
I love your intro, that brought some nostalgia
YOOOOOOOOOOO that star wars bf1 OG map load got me good. Great video
The Mandalorian is far superior than TRoS.
Tucker Johnston It’s TROTS

aryaaa 19197 I know The Rise Of The Skywalker TROTS
Yeah, no shit
@@magicman3163 lol no it's TROS
Mando reminds me of Batman.
The mandalorian can count as legends? Sold
6:31 Just want to say, both the First and Final Order are the old Empire. I'm surprised how many people ignore this. Basically they took the "Dark Empire" in the comics to its extreme, where most Imperials never stopped being loyal to Sidious. Their "fall" on Jakku and Operation Cinder were more or less a front to make it look like they had crumbled quickly. Hell they practically flat out say the Imperial remnant are fleeing to the Unknown regions in both Battlefront 2 and the Aftermath Trilogy. Honestly it'd be a surprise to see more Warlords than what we have now.
Anyways sorry, the rest is good lol.
Mandalorians are like the star wars version of Sparta/spartans
The start with the Battlefront reference! Love it
It's funny how Disney done away with LEGENDS as canon....and then draws from it all the time.
I mean, it kinda makes sense. They didn't want to be tied to everything any random person has written, and they didn't want to explicitly pick and choose, but that doesn't mean they don't still like some of the stories. The whole point of it being "legends" is that any of it COULD be true unless it contradicts canon, but they aren't going to say for sure one way or the other.
@@danieljensen2626 "They didn't want to be tied to everything any random person has written" That's why their core of serie, sequel trilogy, totally doesn't make sense.
When a show goes so deep to include all such lore you know they done their research to please the fans. God bless
Given Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau's involvement in The Mandalorian it's no surprise that a ton of Star Wars Expanded Universe (EU) stuff was put in there.
Dame I love that intro, reminds me of my childhood playing starwars battlefront
Looks like disney got those "30 years time gap" as materials to make new stories leading to the force awaken, and i hope they would make good stories like the mandalorian.
They might even make a show about luke training kylo ren, anothey jedi stuff yeay
NGL the zoom in thing at the beginning brought back memories from my ps2 days
Great video! I think the biggest problem I have with the sequel movies is the lack of backround. Like you said, it seems unlogic that the empire just disappeared and made a much greater army, the first order. And they did not even explain why and how the new republic failed. For me it was really hard to follow, because apparently the rebels did not change their position since they were still a resistance in the 7th movie. Although they won the battle of endor and in legends started to build the new republic.
If you mispronounce "Mythosaur" one more time I swear to God....

THANK YOU!!!
Vader: "And I want them alive, no disintegrations"
Boba: "As you wish"
Mando: "oof"
Interesting tidbit, at one point the canon was that armor color had meaning in Mandalorian culture. Red signified "Honoring a parent." Coincidence?
Find this child, i must. And there I would find the answer to the quality of the condom that was used 50 years before
Lmao
I can’t wait to rewatch the mandalorian. I first watched it without watching clone wars or rebels, so I had no idea who the mandalorians were and how the fetts fit in with them. I’m in the middle of rebels and I’m goin to watch it after.
God your intro takes me back!
The Mandalorian is a love letter to Star Wars which was sorely needed after the sequel trilogy. Keep this up Disney
Never seen your vids but your intro is awesome
The child is said to be 50 years old. 50 years previous to this the galactic Republic was in order and both Yagle and Yoda are in the Jedi order. We only ever see yagle in the phantom meneace and theirs no explanation as to what happened to her. So my theory is, YODA and yagle had a child, were afraid of what the Jedi would think, and yagle left to raise the child, but died and then the child was left floating around from place to place until the vents of the mandalorian. It’s far-fetched, but the time fits in well and links up pretty seamlessly, if you see a flaw in this theory please point it out to me
One minor thing you didn't mention: on the prison ship episode the guard droids bore the emblem of the New Republic as seen in legends (starbird surrounded by a ring of stars), rather than the new canon emblem (starbird over a starburst-looking shape).
The mandalorian: I am the best. The clone wars: at last we will have our revenge
1:26 Darth Vader:"I want them alive! No disintegration!"
Buba Fett:"As you wish!"
Rebels mentioned beskar alloy before the mandalorian even existed. The show raised a pretty serious question though, because they’ve got a very short time between the hero’s of mandalore arch of rebels and the end of the empire to shoe in the near extermination of an entire culture, especially one so hardy as the mandalorians
I think you're incorrect about the Empire just disappearing. Aftermath mentions and implies that there were a bunch of warlords and various Imperial remnants existing for a long time after the the initial fall of Jakku
This show is the way! There are so many good camios and nods to other spin off series. I love how both John Favro and Dave Faloney have made appearances.
Awesome
I can’t wait for season 2!
Hearing you speak of how the Imperial disintegrates in one year in canon kinds of make me think that it's a smokescreen to throw at the Republic because it's probably merely a camouflage in order to preserve the fighting bulk of the Imperial force for the upcoming First Order comeback.
The disintegration of the Jawas was AWESOME
I always thought the Mando's weapon was really similar looking and function to the Cycler in SWBF (Battlefront) which fired a type of kinetic slug surrounded by energy instead of normal blaster energy bolts. It was a 1 shot kill in the game if you got headshots and I think was said to have been used by Tuscan Raiders/Sand People on Tatooine. Combined with the fact that in Empire Vader tells Boba Fett "No Disintegration!" Seemed like maybe they took the two added a crazy cattle prod and boom!
Lucasfilm cannon *exists
Disney: I’m pretend I didn’t see that
What a blown opportunity by Lucas when he decided to treat Fett as a throwaway character
Okay so I watched The Mandalorian last night! What a watch best bit of star wars in a while
I think a lot of people forget about "Star Wars Galaxies" Lore as well. Some goo stuff about bounty hunters there
One great thing about the Mandalorian is the score. It’s innovative and poignant, and perfectly fits the space-cowboy (space-samurai?) feel of the story. If you’re not a musician or into film scores, you may not think about it, but just consider for a moment how different the Mandalorian’s music is to John Williams’ scores for all the Star Wars movies. They’re like hallmarks of the old tradition of orchestral film scores, brought to the near heights of their medium. Meanwhile the Mandalorian strikes out apart from that tradition with an eerie, sparse, electronic score, nearly the opposite of the lush acoustic sound of John Williams. It’s kind of brilliant.
its crazy how much better legends is than Disney canon
Not really, Legends spent years in the making with many contemt creators collabing to make sure their stories were intertwined together and didn't feel so disconnected. Disney doesn't give a fuck as shown by their treatment of the Rise of Skywalker after some comic authors actually spent time trying to fix things that RoS completely shut away
I like they were able to make the comedy parts actually funny, and not campy like the movies have been. Like come on, the scene with the Scout Troopers is priceless.
George Lucas: I don’t want to name Yoda’s species to keep it mysterious.
Anyone: So the Force is going tl remain mysterious too?
George Lucas: Oh hell no! Imma explain that shit. Midichlorians, son! That’s the conduit of the Whills.
SMDH.
Why do you pronounce "Myth" as "Might"
Then why do people keep saying that Boba and Jango aren't real mandalorians?
Because it's true but that's canon. In Legends Jango and Boba are Mando's. But after the last Jedi don't see canon in the same way. So yeah they're Mando's
@@NotSnidge So true. Disney doesn't know how to take care of star wars. Honestly in my POV I think Legends as canon. An alternative version of it.
@@NotSnidge I think I prefer legends over canon then, dumbing it down to a race just ruins everything about them
Isn’t Boba a clone?
No, in canon Mandalorian is still a culture, because mando’s parents are evidently not mandalorians.
Love it all, but I expect two big this: (1) The Child is the beginning of a great new storyline and (2) he will share Yoda's longevity.
I'm definitely in for a Mandalorian video game 9:11. I play Titanfall 2 with the Grapple Hook tactical ability exclusively, and it feels like I'm Boba Fett on steroids! This is such a great, fast-paced game. I'd like to see a mod with Mando-skins and weapons.
Master piece just wish was longer.
well season 2 is coming so that's a good thing
@@goblinphreak2132 yea wish cd project red could make a star wars game featuring mandos and jedi or Sith depending on you path.

Me too, man. Me too 😍
I made no such promises
Up next: The Dark Truth of Baby Yoda
I think it is far to say that Mandalorians are both a people and a way of life, given that the ancient Mandalorians all interbred with one another, both those born into it and adopted by them and became a thing where one follows the creed and has a people/family upon following it. Like the Dothraki of game of thrones.
Mando's blue-skinned bounty in the first episode was hoping to get home for Life Day.
I really enjoyed this show. It's got this sort of "western in space" feel to it, bit like Firefly. But I hope it lasts way longer lol
the Mandalorian: far to great to be part of Disney Star Wars. i consider it part of Star Wars Expanded Universe/Legends.
*this is the way.*
