If you look at Pedro Pascal's performance he acts like someone with no peripheral vision (ie had worn a helmet his entire life). It is subtle but a great detail. His head our body fully engaged, no side glances.
@@TheRealUcanUwill for me his appeal is mostly his grumpy,loud boston uncle type character i find pretty funny.. definitely not for everyone especially since hes not apologetic of people offended by his stand up comedy
I’ve heard that Pedro Pascal has to show his face at least once each season in order to be eligible for awards for Mandalorian, so it’ll be a tradition for sure but there’s a meta, real-world reason for it to happen.
I really appreciate the way that Din moves his head outside of the helmet. He turns his head completely instead of looking out of his peripherals, just like he would with the helmet on.
Also, just the fact that he looks like a kid at the doctor's office without it on is awesome. You can tell he's not used to that, and that he's not even comfortable with it. Every episode gets better than the last.
Also in the fight scene too caught my eye in appreciation, how he stood there with his guard down then getting walloped and watching bits of his armour flying everywhere showing how for granted he's taken being basically a walking tank in his Beskar lol
We gotta talk about how the troopers must have felt in that cafeteria. Imagine you are all excited to go take your lunch break, it’s meatloaf monday. Then, some random employee ices your boss right in the middle of the room.
Well I think there'd be a split in that room depending on if you liked said boss enough to avenge him or not (I know it's the Empire and thus you have to like him otherwise it's all over but there's gotta be a few people going "I never really liked him" when alone lol).
I loved how uncomfortable Dinn was without his helmet. Like a deer in the headlights. Pedro Pascal, Bill Burr, and Richard Brake knocked that scene out of the park imo. 😁👍
Well, actually, it's most likely that this is simply the first time he's run into another Mandalorian who could actually do proper maintenance on the armor.
I can’t wait till Din finally paints his armour. The beskar iron’s silver sheen is a fantastic look, but painting armour is a really big Mandalorian tradition that he’s probably not gonna ditch. For those of you who don’t know, colours represent certain things on Mandalore. The colours on someone’s armour can say a lot about not just their loyalties, but the traits and concepts they value most. So Boba’s primary colour scheme is Green= Duty, and Red= Honouring a Parent. In the latest episode, he’s painted one of his pauldron’s Orange= A Lust For Life (which he’d probably have after escaping a Sarlacc, and being stuck on Tatooine for so long). Edit: apparently Boba’s pauldrons have always been orange; they were just really faded before the paint job?? I always thought they were tan or an off-green or something, but guess I stand corrected XD
I like how quiet and almost timid Mando got when he had to take off his helmet. He really sold how uncomfortable he felt, his entire identity was in the Mandalorian uniform, and he was just exposed without it.
That general or whatever (I forget his rank) was a great actor. They should’ve chose him for the sequel trilogy for an actual scary or intimidating guy
Lol. Damn some people are too stupid and intent on shitting on anything and everything to grasp that this is very much a theme of the show. It's pretty obvious.
Mando's threatening speech at the end was word for word repetition of the way Moff Gideon threatened them in season 1. "It means more to me than you will ever know" Such a badass moment.
I get this feeling that Bill Burr’s character is going to be part of that new “Rangers of the New Republic” show that is set around the same time as the Mandalorian.
Unless they manage to cancel her then I imagine Gina Carano and Cara Dune will be a chief part of that show, that's what they have been building with the Marshal thing, bring in at least one of the X-Wing pilots along with her as the mentor (the other guy being Dave Filoni), and she'll pick up Mayfeld.
I had the exact thought. When Dune sets him free at the end of the episode she has a moment where she looks at him, kind of with admiration or seeing him in a new light in my first thought was her and him are going to be the core of the Ranger show.
When Boba said “they might recognize my face” I didn’t realize it was a connection to the clones I thought he was referring to how he would work closely with the empire and Vader, Jeremy you blew my mind
"It means more to me than you will ever know." - Gideon to Djarin "He means more to me than you will EVER know." - Djarin to Gideon Why is Star Wars is SO. GOOD. At rhyming? GOD I love it.
It's interesting, The Mandalorian (And Star Wars in general) has never really had amazing performances or characters showing wide ranges of emotion. The characters usually have their quirky personalities traits and say the (kind of clunky) but still endearing dialogue. So I was really caught off guard when Bill Burr was going for it in that sit down scene. Damn you felt the guys emotion... Bill Burr of all people. Granted Pedro was also really good. You could feel how uncomfortable he felt without the helmet... This was just a good character episode.
Mando blew up Moff Gideon's ship, so Moff blew up Mondo's. Mando then returns the Moff's speech back to him. Excellent way these two are giving each other blows and how personal their conflict is.
Was really not enjoying it until these last two episodes, feels more like it’s own show with out dumb quests with characters I couldn’t give a shit about. Props to the team, I can’t wait for the finale.
@@patrick2099_ exactly like I couldn't care less for frog lady or the Krate Dragon. Looked cool but that's was it. But I loved Ashoka. Hated the Bo Katan episode, love Bo from the shows, but she had that odd awkward smile and smug looked that it didn't look like a veteran warrior and tired angry person she should be at this point. Considering she's been in war for like 20 years now. But Ashoka was great, and last weeks episode was perfect.
@@madclone84 137 people seem to disagree with you. Also it’s kinda funny how you call me a normie when you don’t know jack shit about me pal. I’ve been a fan of Tarantino’s movies since I was 13 bud.
Oh shit me too. Only it was too short to develop into that kind of drawn out tension, but we’ll have to blame the limited episode format. I would’ve like different angles too, like an old western.
The original one though, not the recast one. Sadly he was only in 2 episodes, but he looked way more menacing than Vladimir Furdik. Funny enough everyone thought the recast happened cause Vladimir is also a sword/fight master so we would get badass fight scenes with the NK, how wrong we were..
Let´s be honest, the question shouldn´t be why he repainted his armour. It should be, why hasn´t he done it sooner...that lazy nub. Was the paint too expensive?
Remember they aged at twice the speed of Boba, and he looks old as dirt now (I know he's 41, making most clones 82 or older). All the clones are dead by now. Vader and Palps actually took the remnants out once they were too old. Kamino couldn't make more because they ran out of Jango's DNA.
I really loved this episode. One of my favorite parts was when Mando was fighting those pirates, and then a tie-fighter showed up and blasted them. And the audience gets to cheer for the help from the remnants of the Empire. Also the tension when they had to sit across from that officer. So good. I hope he starts taking off his helmet more often like the other Mandalorians, because I like seeing his face.
Its actually a reference to a old 70's classic called "Sorceror" (it has nothing to do with wizards), its a movie about a grimy truck crew carrying a sensitive payload of TNT through a hostile jungle.

Loved the battlefront 2 Easter Egg about the mission that Bill Burr was on, Operation Cinder, also being a turning point for Iden Verso’s character in the game’s story campaign. Really shows how much thought filoni and team put into their Easter eggs and references compared to the member’ berry approach from the sequel trilogy
Agreed! It gave bill burrs character some context without just referring to basic Star Wars trivia (Alderaan). Served the super fans as well as worked well for regular watchers Great job on their part.
That seismic charge was such a nice fan service that felt completely natural and organic. Love how Star Wars is finding a way to give us things we know and love without it feeling like an "on the nose" attempt at just Member Berries. Thanks for another fun vid.
Oh shit! Guess I gotta play that Battlefront II game I got just by being a PS+ member lol. I'd been avoiding it ever since the lootbox controversy, but... WELP. Time to bite that bullet!
Imagine Grogu in 150 years, with full Mandalorian armor, gadgets, jetpack, darksaber and force user, that would be the most badass character ever, can someone draw this and send me the link, thanks.
@@AnastasiaSilvi lol Right? You can't stuff the poor thing's ears into fitted molds and you can't leave them exposed....I'm thinking maybe a cover that goes behind the ear so he still has movement but a little bit of protection.
In all the review/reaction vids for this episode that I've seen...no one mentions how cool it is that Mando used Mof's lines from season one on him...maybe they just didn't notice
Exactly JustBless! I’m ever more surprised because they added that fragment of Gideon’s speech in the episode recap, and no many recognizes it? I’m sad lol
@@justbless6074 You need to watch the channel *Thor Skywalker* he mentioned it like it was obvious for everyone, it is so obvious for him. (He called himself *Skywalker* before Rey did).
I think the paint job indicates the pride he has in the armor. He’d been without it a long time, and it meant a lot to get it back. Paint can be such a fresh start.
It’s amazing how quickly the Mandalorian managed to get fans back on board with Star Wars. If you loved the last jedi, you love the Mandalorian, if you hated the last Jedi, you love the Mandalorian. It’s the show that brought people together.
This episode was right up there with the Prison Transport in season one for possibly my favorite episode, so I think the lesson is: Put Bill Burr in your Star Wars. Love how in the transport on the way to the refinery, it felt like maybe he was just needling Din to try and convince Din... by the end of the episode, we realize he was just trying to process his own guilt. So well told by Burr's performance.
Dude, now I'm gonna have to wait 200 years for "Grogu: The Mandalorian". I need to go have some kids, so that someone in my family line gets to see it. lol
This is probably the best episode of this show so far. The acting was amazing, the storyline was simple and intriguing, the infiltration was awesome, the table scene was great and completely unexpected, and the ending was satisfying. I loved the way they got into the base and all of the stormtroopers were cheering.
@@theflashgordon193 Yup. they were pretty easy given roughly half were 30 mins or so. Of course Grogu is an eye catcher, but I think I liked the season 1 finale best. It had some strong T2 vibes going with that Droid's arc. Overall just a wonderful show.
Within the last year from his comedy specials to this, I have become a huge fan of Bill Burr. This was the The Bill Burr show...loved it! The Mandelorian reminds me of Lone Wolf and Cub aka Shogun Assassin.. Classic!
I liked the Storm Troopers cheering their arrival when they delivered the rhydonium. Makes the troopers have some depth beyond cannon fodder for the Empire.
Bill Burr bringing his own energy to the character reminds me of how Favreau worked with RDJ creating Iron Man. Sometimes it works to just let the actor imprint their own personality onto the character.
It’s possible that the pretty colors are only from refined rhydonium. This was freshly mined. But yeah, the pretty colors wouldn’t made it so much cooler.
I just noticed something watching this video which might help explain Boba's armour change. The armour is connected to some sort of material which holds it all together and on the original suit it was a white sort of colour. As much as i loved seeing the suit in the last episode, the brightness of this material did clash a bit with the darker Tuskan robes he wore. Boba still has the darker robes under his armour, however that material on the armour is now darker and blends in better. So at some point he has been working on his armour, and either replaced or dyed that material, makes sense he would re paint the Beskar whilst he's at it. I also think that since he had been missing for 5 years, he probably feels like he needs to work his way back to the top, but whilst his scratches and scrapes once showed his journey to the top, now they represent his fall from the top. So a fresh paintjob makes sense as he restarts his journey from scratch. Refreshed armour for refreshed Boba
@@optillian4182 don't mind him. He probably named his kid baby Brett aswell it is normal now to name your kid baby something something to reference somebody else.
I feel like at the end of the season, Boba is going to give Din a ship. Slave I is 100% Boba’s ship, so I’m really hoping Din is given Slave II, since in EU was just one of Fett’s extra ships
I LOVED it when at the table Mando looked to Mayfield and shook his head slightly, trying to convince him not to fire. We wouldn’t have had that with the helmet on. And I agree with everybody else - Bill Burr’s performance was riveting. A really, really great scene, one of the best of any series this year.
I believe Grogu is a mandalorian. The armorer calls them "a clan of two" Also wonder if season 3 is going to become "the mandalorian's" and feature Boba fett or Bo Katan in more major roles.
The way it works with the mandalorian creed is the re'solnaire (probably spelled it wrong). It's the 6 things one gotta do to be mandalorian. Follow the way of the mandalor, always wearing (at least some) parts of armor, honor and protect Clan and family, follow the mandalor into battle, speaking (or at least knowing how to speak) the mando language and raising ones kids in the way of the mandalor. If jango did all of this with boba (and in legends he does) then yes, boba is a mandalorian by heritage.
Loved the bit where the Stormtroopers and Shoretroopers(!) provide cover fire for the transport and MOW down the pirates - Then form an honour guard and salute their comrades. The celebration inside the base was a nice touch...
Another episode to love!! I really wondered if Mando was going to take off his helmet to get the info needed & HE DID!!! Another example of the depth of his love for Grogu!! Willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES...WHATEVER IT TAKES (...Captain America would be proud!!)!! I worried that Bill Burr was just going to be snarky in this episode but he actually gave some "flesh" to his character. You realize that he's not just selfish but actually trying to survive. I'm also happy that the ladies were helping to keep Mando & Mayfield alive with sharpshooter skills!!! And of course can't forget Boba Fett taking out those TIE fighters with the seismic charge!! I seriously am worried for Mando. I don't want him to die & I want him back in a spaceship of his own again!! He's not a cowboy without his horse!!!
A tangent...does anybody get a chuckle out of the "skip intro" feature for the show? The intro is, literally, about 2 seconds long...who is so pressed for time that they skip two seconds?
@@Dagenspear Skipping the RECAP is one thing...the INTRO is literally (and I do mean literally) about 3-4 seconds and consists of the title of the show and the title of the episode...by the time you find the remote to press the skip INTRO button, the INTRO would be over
Best part of the episode is when Boba gets asked if he can go inside the base and he remarks that his face “might be recognized.” Such a hilarious and subtle nod to Boba being a clone lol
When Bill Burr and Mando were sitting that that table and they were talking about how Burr's entire squadron was wiped out or whatever was some great acting from him. I didn't expect Burr to be that good as a serious actor
Clean, newly painted armour means a new action figure. And yeah. I do wonder if it's in Pedro's contract that he gets to take the helmet off at least once a season. I really loved Mando doing the old Liam Neeson in Taken, homicidal dad speech. The fact that he used Moff Stache's own words against him made it even better.
Bill Burr’s acting was phenomenal when he interacted with the officer. Like I could feel the emotion.
Seriously, I love Bill Burr but had no idea he was capable of displaying such subtle, emotional range.
Right? It was his facial expressions. He absolutely killed it
I 100% agree.
He's no daniel day lewis but come on your being a tad bit ridiculous. He has come a along way that's for sure but at times his acting was cringe.
The officer is also good, i can feel the pressure
I think the table scene is the best acted scene in the show.
It’s by default the most acted scene too given that’s the only scene where we see Din’s actual expressions the most as the main lead lol
Yes Bill Bur killed it.
If you look at Pedro Pascal's performance he acts like someone with no peripheral vision (ie had worn a helmet his entire life). It is subtle but a great detail. His head our body fully engaged, no side glances.
Doesn't hold a candle to all the time Pedro and Gina pretend to get along loljk
It was straight out of inglorious basterds, it was amazing
Love bill burr still finds a way to do his rants even in star wars.
Seriously. That was gold
I feel like his confusion over Mando's rules is something he said to the directors on set.
Personally, I wasnt a big Bill Burr fan, I dont get his appeal at all, but he was very good in this episode.
Exactly, my man isn't Mayfield. It's good old Boston Burr.
@@TheRealUcanUwill for me his appeal is mostly his grumpy,loud boston uncle type character i find pretty funny.. definitely not for everyone especially since hes not apologetic of people offended by his stand up comedy

I was kinda hoping to see a Clone played by Temuera Morrison in the Imperial Base.
All the clones were decommissioned after the rise of the empire. I do wanna see Rex make an appearance though.
they'd be pretty ancient by this point, and the empire refreshed their ranks with enlisted individuals.
Most clones would have died off by now
Remember they aged at twice the speed of Boba, and he looks old as dirt now (I know he's 41, making most clones 82 or older). All the clones are dead by now. Vader and Palps actually took the remnants out once they were too old. Kamino couldn't make more because they ran out of Jango's DNA.

Either that or he uses his body armor as the defense against the dark saber.

I didn’t see anything. All I know is Mayfield died in the explosion.
"The battle of Serenity Valley" I love that you keep Firefly alive. Browncoats Forever!
I did a double-take when he said that lol. Yet another Mandalorian/Firefly comparison!
Just remember: we didn't see mando's face. We didn't see nothing!
I just saw that new character, what was he called? Browneyes?
@@sentientmustache8360 yeah! that guy was cool!
Yup and just remember mayfeld died in the episode. He died.
@@samot4100 very tragic, indeed.
This is the way
Bill Burr dude! It was awkward at first, but now I want him as a regular! He’s doin great
I loved Boba's new paint job. That mat finish makes him look like an intergalactic Batman.
Jeremy’s “shut up, we’re the true Mandalorians” line had me cracking up so hard 😂
i always had a feeling Mando loved Grogu, but when he admits it ("...He means more to me than you will ever know!") made me really really happy
Just add Bill Burr to the list of great comedians who can be great dramatic actors
But among those Jim Carrey comes first and he is the boss 😎
@He-Man ! Yeah Bill Burr is a great modern comedian he is modern George Carlin who hates Woke White Karens 😂
Did jeremy not notice that mando was throwing moff gideon's words back in his face 🤔
He couldn’t have, right?
No he definitely would have said something about it instead of the taken reference.
I honestly didn't the first time I watched the episode lmao
@@TitanLRV they replayed Gideon's dialog in the beginning episode recap.
@@raindrainxi I know, I rewatched the episode two more times but I didn't pick it up the first time
Loved the battlefront 2 Easter Egg about the mission that Bill Burr was on, Operation Cinder, also being a turning point for Iden Verso’s character in the game’s story campaign. Really shows how much thought filoni and team put into their Easter eggs and references compared to the member’ berry approach from the sequel trilogy
Agreed! It gave bill burrs character some context without just referring to basic Star Wars trivia (Alderaan). Served the super fans as well as worked well for regular watchers Great job on their part.
@@kcjc and the show took Burnin Konn from Star Wars uprising, glad to know that toxic world is gone ngl since the game made it gross to grind
That seismic charge was such a nice fan service that felt completely natural and organic. Love how Star Wars is finding a way to give us things we know and love without it feeling like an "on the nose" attempt at just Member Berries.
Thanks for another fun vid.
Yes grogu is a mandolorion he's even been called a foundling by the armorer and mando
If Grogu is a Jedi Mandalorian, he is the rightful owner of the Darksaber
At that point he's the rightful ruler of Mandalore, screw Bo-Katan
@@stefangrubesic2708 No he'll need Bo to rule Mandalore while he's off doing Jedi-Mando things (or getting those scatter Mandos back home)
Didn't the Mandalorian Forge Lady deem Grogu a "foundling"?
@@Rated314 I believe so in cahpter 8
Facts
Mando fighting those pirates was one of the best scenes in the show so far.
That scene had such slow choreography it was goofy to watch
@@87hiphopfan not really
@@connormiller5084 kinda yeah
That Boba Fett armor is the best he's EVER looked, EVER. That armor is mind-blowing
That ending scene in the final episode looked so clean
"Operation: Cinder" that Mayfeld mentions makes the story of SW Battlefront 2's campaign canon. Now imagine Iden Verso showing up in the future :)
It was confirmed even before Battlefront 2's release that the story/campaign is canon. Same goes with Jedi: Fallen Order.
Operation Cinder was one of the dumbest, laziest plot elements I've ever seen.
Oh shit! Guess I gotta play that Battlefront II game I got just by being a PS+ member lol. I'd been avoiding it ever since the lootbox controversy, but... WELP. Time to bite that bullet!
Imagine Grogu in 150 years, with full Mandalorian armor, gadgets, jetpack, darksaber and force user, that would be the most badass character ever, can someone draw this and send me the link, thanks.
For real! I want to see this too...I might draw it myself actually. (I'm already trying to figure out how the ears would go with a helmet lol.)
@@StormLight13 his poor ears😭😂
@@AnastasiaSilvi lol Right? You can't stuff the poor thing's ears into fitted molds and you can't leave them exposed....I'm thinking maybe a cover that goes behind the ear so he still has movement but a little bit of protection.
He would also be the shortest badass character ever lol.
Jeremy: "Is Jedi Mandalorian the coolest title in Star Wars?"
Darth Maul: Sith Mandalorian Conqueror.
💯
FACTS
Season 1
Gideon: "It means more to me, than you will ever know."
Season 2
Din: *UNO Reverse card*
In all the review/reaction vids for this episode that I've seen...no one mentions how cool it is that Mando used Mof's lines from season one on him...maybe they just didn't notice
Exactly JustBless! I’m ever more surprised because they added that fragment of Gideon’s speech in the episode recap, and no many recognizes it? I’m sad lol
@@prof.davidgonzalezcorrea7096 lol...yes, that's exactly why it was in the recap & they still missed it
Din :*HE* means more to me, than you will ever know
@@justbless6074 You need to watch the channel *Thor Skywalker* he mentioned it like it was obvious for everyone, it is so obvious for him. (He called himself *Skywalker* before Rey did).
I think the paint job indicates the pride he has in the armor. He’d been without it a long time, and it meant a lot to get it back. Paint can be such a fresh start.
It’s amazing how quickly the Mandalorian managed to get fans back on board with Star Wars. If you loved the last jedi, you love the Mandalorian, if you hated the last Jedi, you love the Mandalorian. It’s the show that brought people together.
This episode was right up there with the Prison Transport in season one for possibly my favorite episode, so I think the lesson is: Put Bill Burr in your Star Wars. Love how in the transport on the way to the refinery, it felt like maybe he was just needling Din to try and convince Din... by the end of the episode, we realize he was just trying to process his own guilt. So well told by Burr's performance.
The table scene was just, perfect. Like holy crap I was getting the end of Joker vibes.
I kinda hope this show ends on a high note with Mando going back to Pocahontas without his helmet on and she's like "I know you".
Dude, now I'm gonna have to wait 200 years for "Grogu: The Mandalorian". I need to go have some kids, so that someone in my family line gets to see it. lol
Dude......lets if it happens, it will probably be 8-10 years. I'll see you in 2030.
@@lillpoetboy Deal. KMSL to the Yoda Mandalorian quote Stella Hohenheim
This is probably the best episode of this show so far. The acting was amazing, the storyline was simple and intriguing, the infiltration was awesome, the table scene was great and completely unexpected, and the ending was satisfying. I loved the way they got into the base and all of the stormtroopers were cheering.
That scene just before Bill Burrs character shot the guy, Bills acting was stellar. He said nothing and everything at the exact same time.
I'm not a SW fan by nature, but I just binge watched this series yesterday. It is awesome.
Tell Disney that exact thing as well!
you watched 2 season in one day ? I'm glad you enjoyed it that much
@@theflashgordon193 Yup. they were pretty easy given roughly half were 30 mins or so. Of course Grogu is an eye catcher, but I think I liked the season 1 finale best. It had some strong T2 vibes going with that Droid's arc. Overall just a wonderful show.
@@gifctdotorgthought-police3706 yeah agree
Most adorable thought: Grogu in his dad’s Mandalorian armour. 😂
Oh god, what if his species is actually human sized and Yoda was just a midget?
@@orangesoda4535 huh. Extra tall Yoda species isn’t something I’ve thought about before but here we are. Wild.
@@orangesoda4535 what about yaddle?
@@Jetzer12 shhh. Let us have a tall Yoda species headcanon. 😉
I’m pretty sure that Din and Bo-Katan never discussed Moff Gideon, they don’t know about each other’s connection to him
Word lol, plus Dinn literally wasn't looking for Moff Gideon, (he thought Moff Gideon was dead) he was just looking for a Jedi
She asked the commander where Gideon was in front of mando in the cockpit of the ship
@@Del_116 She never asked by name, she only asked "Where is the dark saber, does HE have it?"
@@jonathansingleton869 Did Mando ever see Gideon with the saber in ep 8? I don't think he did. Gideon cut himself out of the wrecked ship.
@@rethinkOURreality yea he never knew and neither did mando that they were connected to him
Within the last year from his comedy specials to this, I have become a huge fan of Bill Burr. This was the The Bill Burr show...loved it! The Mandelorian reminds me of Lone Wolf and Cub aka Shogun Assassin.. Classic!
Watching Jeremy excited again about star wars makes me truly happy
Don't know why everyone sees it as a taken speech, when its literally a mirror to what Gideon said when he didn't have the child and wanted it
Because it's a badass "I'm coming for him" moment
@@soundninja99 Yeah, but the badass thing about it is that he is using Gideons exact words back at him
@@cm31572 yeah, doesn't mean it isn't similar to the taken speach. It can be both you know
Ah yes, the battle at Serenity Valley, that’s a great battle in.... Star Wars.*wink wink*
Don't do it dude
This was bill burr’s episode for sure, one of my favorites and it’s from the director of dope and the wood❤️
I liked the Storm Troopers cheering their arrival when they delivered the rhydonium. Makes the troopers have some depth beyond cannon fodder for the Empire.
First time we've ever been encouraged to treat the appearance of TIE fighters as something good, too.
@@philiphunn194 my thoughts exactly.
Bill Burr bringing his own energy to the character reminds me of how Favreau worked with RDJ creating Iron Man. Sometimes it works to just let the actor imprint their own personality onto the character.
“I am nervous”
You didn’t get that in the sequel trilogy
I did but not in good way.
I did - it was kind of like being an altar boy in a room full of priests.
haha funni sequel bad
@@obi-wanpepproni3576 Oh, it's one of you.
My one complaint is that the Rhydonium explosions didn't have any pretty colors. I wanted to see the pretty colors dammit.
That was my only complaint too. When I heard Rhydonium, I had Clone Wars Venator Cruiser explosion flashbacks.
It’s possible that the pretty colors are only from refined rhydonium. This was freshly mined. But yeah, the pretty colors wouldn’t made it so much cooler.
lets just appreciate the moment, THIS is star wars 2020 sucked but at least we have mandalorian🤟🏼
I just noticed something watching this video which might help explain Boba's armour change. The armour is connected to some sort of material which holds it all together and on the original suit it was a white sort of colour. As much as i loved seeing the suit in the last episode, the brightness of this material did clash a bit with the darker Tuskan robes he wore. Boba still has the darker robes under his armour, however that material on the armour is now darker and blends in better. So at some point he has been working on his armour, and either replaced or dyed that material, makes sense he would re paint the Beskar whilst he's at it. I also think that since he had been missing for 5 years, he probably feels like he needs to work his way back to the top, but whilst his scratches and scrapes once showed his journey to the top, now they represent his fall from the top. So a fresh paintjob makes sense as he restarts his journey from scratch. Refreshed armour for refreshed Boba
If I remmeber right I loved that mando repeats the moff Gideons speech from S1 right back at him at the end of this episode :D:D
The first episode without baby yoda :(
And thats was one of the best episodes this season.
thank god for that
His name is Grogu.
@@optillian4182 don't mind him. He probably named his kid baby Brett aswell it is normal now to name your kid baby something something to reference somebody else.
From now on its not boba fett but Baby Jango
"Oh you're one of those mandalorians..the crazies " 🤣🤣
I feel like at the end of the season, Boba is going to give Din a ship. Slave I is 100% Boba’s ship, so I’m really hoping Din is given Slave II, since in EU was just one of Fett’s extra ships
Has slave II ever been mentioned or seen in canon? If not, that would be a nice way of introducing it
I would seriously squeal if that happened. I now want that to happen so bad.
@@AngeMaru486 lego star wars is canon
It’s nice to see you genuinely happy talking about Star Wars again.
I LOVED it when at the table Mando looked to Mayfield and shook his head slightly, trying to convince him not to fire. We wouldn’t have had that with the helmet on. And I agree with everybody else - Bill Burr’s performance was riveting. A really, really great scene, one of the best of any series this year.
I believe Grogu is a mandalorian. The armorer calls them "a clan of two"
Also wonder if season 3 is going to become "the mandalorian's" and feature Boba fett or Bo Katan in more major roles.
Been waiting for this upload more than the episode itself
Bill Bur was more fleshed out than Rey....WHO HAD 3 MOVIES
And a better ex-Imperial story than Finn
Rey was more fleshed out than Obi Wan but no one ever points that out.
Funny.
@@BabysitterSky "Oh I don't think so"
Baby Yoda was more fleshed out than old Yoda ... WHO HAD 6 MOVIES.
@@BabysitterSky only because she showed more flesh than Obi-Wan
I loved how you saw the inside of Fett’s ship turning to flight and how it worked!
The way it works with the mandalorian creed is the re'solnaire (probably spelled it wrong). It's the 6 things one gotta do to be mandalorian. Follow the way of the mandalor, always wearing (at least some) parts of armor, honor and protect Clan and family, follow the mandalor into battle, speaking (or at least knowing how to speak) the mando language and raising ones kids in the way of the mandalor. If jango did all of this with boba (and in legends he does) then yes, boba is a mandalorian by heritage.
Mando’s message to Moff Gideon was the message Moff Gideon gave to Mando in the first season.
I came everywhere when the seismic charge went off.
Bruh
Jeremy my man!! Episode 8!!! Wtf just happened???? 😳😳😳😳 What did I just see? Am I hallucinating???
Loved the bit where the Stormtroopers and Shoretroopers(!) provide cover fire for the transport and MOW down the pirates - Then form an honour guard and salute their comrades. The celebration inside the base was a nice touch...
Rare time when I'm like, "thank God for stormtroopers!"
Another episode to love!! I really wondered if Mando was going to take off his helmet to get the info needed & HE DID!!! Another example of the depth of his love for Grogu!! Willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES...WHATEVER IT TAKES (...Captain America would be proud!!)!! I worried that Bill Burr was just going to be snarky in this episode but he actually gave some "flesh" to his character. You realize that he's not just selfish but actually trying to survive. I'm also happy that the ladies were helping to keep Mando & Mayfield alive with sharpshooter skills!!! And of course can't forget Boba Fett taking out those TIE fighters with the seismic charge!! I seriously am worried for Mando. I don't want him to die & I want him back in a spaceship of his own again!! He's not a cowboy without his horse!!!
A tangent...does anybody get a chuckle out of the "skip intro" feature for the show? The intro is, literally, about 2 seconds long...who is so pressed for time that they skip two seconds?
Hahahaha I was literally just thinking this. Maybe it’s a test to see the statistics of normal patience amongst viewers
Assuming I'm binge watching, I don't really want a recap of the plot I just watched.
@@Dagenspear Skipping the RECAP is one thing...the INTRO is literally (and I do mean literally) about 3-4 seconds and consists of the title of the show and the title of the episode...by the time you find the remote to press the skip INTRO button, the INTRO would be over
Best part of the episode is when Boba gets asked if he can go inside the base and he remarks that his face “might be recognized.”
Such a hilarious and subtle nod to Boba being a clone lol
Mof Gideon doesn't carry a wallet... he has his credits rolled up into a wad and bound by a rubber band.
When Bill Burr and Mando were sitting that that table and they were talking about how Burr's entire squadron was wiped out or whatever was some great acting from him. I didn't expect Burr to be that good as a serious actor
Clean, newly painted armour means a new action figure. And yeah. I do wonder if it's in Pedro's contract that he gets to take the helmet off at least once a season. I really loved Mando doing the old Liam Neeson in Taken, homicidal dad speech. The fact that he used Moff Stache's own words against him made it even better.
