Thanks so much for joining the episode.
We'll see ya in the next one!
Grand Moff is like Governor of a section of space and Grand Admiral is a military rank, also I think Din Djarin becomes the next true Mandalore after claiming the dark saber from moff Gideon after Bo Katan fails to get it.
I just subscribed to you today after watching your what if quigon jin trained anakin and honestly I would love to see a part 3 and maybe a part 4 to continue on from the later episodes that have been put into the series
The Darth maul clone would be fantastic!!! I WOULD DIE OF HYPE IF WE SEE MORE MAUL
@@novustalks7525 yeah but idk how that would work, he could have been brought back with that magic but the issue is how to get the body sent to his home planet; they could have a fellow kinsmen take up his mantle and name via the force/dream logic. But even then he'd need to be trained under the dark side before the new fight occurs.
Really didn't understand how much hitting the like button helps u , love all your content ,will make sure to always hit the like button . May the force be with you!!
PLEASS PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY I WOULD LISTEN TO EVERY PODCAST AT WORK, IN MY CAR, ETC! PLESE!!!!
💯
Yess, it would be super helpful
100% true
You should be working 😉
just use your youtube app
Mando Saves Grogu because he reminds him of himself: a helpless foundling. I’m pretty sure he has a flashback right before shutting off the Razor Crest and returning to save him.
Personally would be a little disappointed if Din was force sensitive. Something about a rogue bounty hunter being the hero is way more satisfying and empowering in terms of a storytelling aspect, a dude without the force being the hero is way more fun. great podcast as always though!
Facts
Yes I don't think that because he has a connection with Grogu that means he is force sensitive.He just is caring for him like a father and knows Grogu wants that damn ball lol.
I agree, but could also be the next force sensitive mandalorian like Tar viszla which sounds kinda bad ass
If din would be force sensitive mandalorian would be worse then orginal holiday special
I agree. I don’t want him to be force sensitive. Not everyone has to be force sensitive in this galaxy. Plus, Din gets his butt kicked constantly. I would’ve been better Finn being force sensitive, because they kept hinting at it.... only to lead to freaking nothing....
Under the guidance of Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau, the future of Star Wars is in good hands
Thanks mike zeroh
Agreed
Yes , yes it is.
Now they just gotta fix the movies -_-
@@ryanhaggett6626 yep declare them non cannon
I think Rosario Dawson nailed it as Ahsoka Tano in The Mandalorian.
I agree, she did amazing
Agreed. She's Ahsoka for me. Very happy with her playing the part.
She's gorgeous and bad A
Nobody can argue against Rosario Dawson , Ashley Eckstein endorsed her as well as the fans.
She did so much justice, it was fantastic. I can’t wait to see her own spin-off.
important point no ones talking about. ahsoka says first that he was hidden. im pretty sure that means hidden by someone light side. then his memory goes dark. thats when someone or some thing dark side got him afterwards. peace
Good call. I noticed that to. Hope it's explained in this season.
Possibly that Thrawn has slain a Jedi that has been keeping and training Grogu. Hence; he was hidden by a Jedi till he saw Thrawn kill him/her infront of him, Only for Thrawn to sense the fear in Grogu and found him.
Brilliant
amesw ael this is very specific but in Jedi fallen order, there’s a cutscene where that woman talks about her past, and her padawan goes with some younglings to save them from the purge. She says the padawan died, but nothing about the younglings. Could grogu have been among them?
Imagine we see a flashback to order 66 with grogu on the temple
I think Yoda saved him from the temple... well it's same kind of species or might even be his baby... and than he either lost him or gave him away in order to save him. Yoda knew he won't live long enough to see him grow up. And maybe when mando got him, the crime syndicate were hired to actually protect him. And Yoda was the one who paid for his protection. Ashoka said that she only knew one person of his species so it must be somehow connect him with Yoda.
@@boydsmith2732 how lol it doesn't make sense
We saw what Yoda did in the temple he fought with Palp and then disappeared
@@busydarthnooox8290 He had alot of time in between to save his child don't you think? Maybe it's even last of his species
My theory is that it was Palp himself because he had Vader and all that but Palp was really smart guy so he probably took Grogu since he knew he is same species like Yoda (really powerful) and then he hide him somewhere. But it's just a theory but I don't think any Jedi saved him because everyone we knew were dead. And Obi and Yoda well we saw them so... xDd Also I don't want some new jedi or someone who just took him it would be so boring to me lol
Mom asked what you're doing, "I'm just watching two dudes talking about star wars" she looked confused.
Its Toast! *hears beat boxing in the distance"
It's great how we can dream of the possibilities again in Starwars
Yep. Ever since rise of Skywalker I’ve been down on Star Wars
I agree, I love seeing TH-cam videos where we theorize on the plot elements instead of complaining about them
Nerd explaining why mando is force sensitive
Theory:- 😑
What if Bendu shows up? Live action Bendu would be crazy. And he could give us a canon backstory for Tython and mention the ships and Je'daii.
That would be cool, but I think it runs the risk of being too "out there" for mainstream appeal, I imagine they'll play it safe for live action an do stuff like the Bendu in animation, books and comics...hope I'm wrong though cos live action Bendu would be sick, especially if they get Tom Baker back to voice him
Isn’t bendu dead though? Thrawn kills them
@@izfroggzy8796 na it's been said he survived that encounter, he was just messing with Thrawn at the end
@@connorschultz380 Where did you see this?
@@justinbebsmus121 dave Floni (please excuse me if I miss spelt his name, had to look it up) has said Ahsoka likely met up with bendo at some point well looking for Ezra, If I recall correctly it was in the same way he said Ahsoka was 'probably' alive during the rise of Skywalker and just mediating to speck to ray from far away
Anyone notice a lil after 1:27:00 when they talk about a round table with Favroe and Filoni, Theory LITERALLY turns red just THINKING about talking to them face to face!! CLASSIC!!! These guys r real sweaty as fans.
My own personal opinion about Ahsoka deciding to to train Grogu is based on 2 factors: First - Her own experience as a Padawan and the way she parted ways with the Jedi. She overtly states that she has seen the risk of attachments, meaning Annakin and her duel with Vader/Annakin. But secondly, that she is not technically a Jedi as she was never graduated and made a Jedi, BUT, more importantly, she never had a Padawan to train to acceptance, herself - so she would be, at best, a poor choice to train Grogu. I think it is clear that she does regret not being able to train him, but that she is bowing to necessity, and she is hoping that a true Jedi (one who has trained a Padawan) may find him and undertake the responsibility.
Nerd explaining why mando is force sensitive
Theory:- 😑
I don't see it either
din being force sensitive doesnt sit well w me
I didn’t really feel that I listened to Josh’s first reasons for it and I saw it differently to how he did it sort of leaves a bad taste in my mouth I don’t see the need for him to be force sensitive he holds his own quite nicely
Please never end this podcast series!
my theory is that the purggil that travel hyperspace and took thrawn & ezra actually went to tython. Luke, on his quest for Jedi relics, coincidentally also went to Tython, meeting Ezra and Thrawn. Thrawn ended up stealing Luke's ship. there's no way the empire would know where Thrawn is but the Jedi wouldnt know where Ezra is if they are both still together, which we have no reason to believe they aren’t still together
If he is a force sensitive my eyes are going to roll right out of my head.
Same
@Kylo Ren see I actually would like to se Din force sensitive, only for the reason he is a mando. Not a Jedi, but just force sensitive. I like it because obviously the only force sensitive mandalorian we know of is tarre vizla (unless I’m forgetting someone) also with din being a child of the watch and him being in the house of vizla( because deathwatch is the vizla house) would just seem cool. But in general i would like to see Din with the dark saber while not being force sensitive. But if for some reason they do make him force sensitive, I wouldn’t complain
its gonna be a new force ability where Grogu can project his powers to Din.
Thank you. Same, it’s how I imagine a 7 year old would write
@@danielpaquet3963 Please god no. The whole point of this show being as loved as it is, is due to it being grounded and relatable. The world building is so much more valuable than having everyone being pointlessly force sensitive.
Feels like we’re back in the good ol hype era w Star Wars again hopefully they can stick the landing this time 🙏
In my humble Opinion Mike Zeroh is one of the worst offenders when it comes to clickbait Star Wars BS. You guys are the total opposite, keep up the good work, love both of your channels.
Glad u figured that out mate , I spent so long listening to him between awakens-and last jedi. Probably watched ever video he did . He's a douchbag
Mike is bad for clickbait
He is the absolute worst.
MZ has wasted lots of people's time with his nonsense.
I subbed to him after Force Awakens and un subbed a week later. He put up 6 videos a day of nonsense and that was it for me.
The worst.
Dude I know right! I agree with that! He has always been doing that and then when I watch it’s boring as crap
“Dave this is George, George Lucas”
“Sorry it’s a really bad line who is this?”
“G..org... Lu...s”
“Who?”
“G..r..g...u”.
“Grogu?”
“Click”
“John! John!!! I have it!!!!”
Best origin story ever
I-😂😂😂😂
Den of Nerds: Do you think-
Star Wars Theory: NO
I swear this Den Of Nerds bloke just lowers the tone and quality of Theory’s content. Theory is great and his partnership with Collider was cool, but this den of nerds partnership just isn’t working for me. Josh just pulls shit out of his ass and calls it a theory.
This guy is nuts, the whole Mando force thing is reaching way too much. These two are a weird pairing
@@thelatman9397 id say BOTH take themselves way to seriously
@@YouPube_X Yeah, though Theory does seem a bit more respectful to the people who get him paid. Josh just prattles on like he's a rockstar.
At lest Josh has some knowledge. Marc has *literally* no clue about what he's talking about. I mean he thought Wattoo belonged to the Hutt species......
I think we’ll get Luke at some point. There was an article a while back stating Mark Hamill signed a deal with Lucasfilm to use his likeness, which would then cover the de-ageing aspect.
They destroyed luke no matter what they do he will end up as a depressed hobo, ruined forever
Any Updates ??
@@marklloyd9584 yeah so about this comment
no one wants to watch Ben Solo's story play out on Mandalorian. The story is mandalorian, not the skywalker saga
Yes ! I don't want to see young ben solo im over it
@Magic Cookies this isn't a bad idea! but the way the commentator was suggesting. Let's have a backstory of Ben Solo... why? lol to validate the sequel and to fix it's problems? Youre setting yourself up to fail, the sequels was highly unpopular, why are we trying to create a show to fix it? So silly... but I'd love to see an interaction with Luke!
I do, so your wrong
Exactly. I dont want to see luke or any skywalker anywhere near this series. Star wars started as the skywalker saga but it does not *have* to continue to be so. The last thing i want is more skywalker bs. Disney ruined the skywalkers and NOBODY could fix them from that massive of a fuck up.
@@matthewdamico9776 That's you many people don't.
Sebastian Stan is literally the age Luke would be after ROTJ in the Mando timeline. Holy shit balls. DEW IT!!
you must be talking about next season because this seasons plot and characters have already been set in stone buddy 💀
So want a Luke Skywalker spin off. It be amazing. They got 30 years to play with.
@@benoh8321 Yeh that's cool I just mean in general they have to do this.
@@paranormalgamesstudios Oh yeah 100% man! I just read it as you were asking him to be added into the current story and I was like "...okay whos gonna tell him" 😂
@@benoh8321 Oh na I actually would prefer less Jedi stuff in the Mandalorian and more underbelly gritty stuff, I like the Jedi stuff as some tasty pepper and salt for flave. But in other series or even a new trilogy, Luke Skywalker full tilt.
Somebody needs to freeze me in carbonite in between episodes, I can’t wait till Friday 😩
I love how no matter what, every episode becomes at some point a debate about the Sequels xD. It's relatable though I also get triggered easily like theory does about Luke and TLJ
How about make a show having a younger Palpatine and go into his history under the tutelage of Plageuis? Since they failed to delve into that in the Sequels...
That should have happened in the sequels, that should have been the extent of Sidious in the trilogy. They ruined Sidious and everything else just by bringing him back
Apparently, there was gonna be one, however, it was more of a tragic backstory for him.
I love how no matter what, every episode becomes at some point a debate about the Sequels xD. It's relatable though I also get triggered easily like theory does about Luke and TLJ
That theory about why Jango said “possibly” is awesome, I totally believe that was Lucas’ intention in the script. Good example of the neat little details he put into the prequels that got overlooked.
There is something i have been thinking about:
Maul was the Ruler of Mandalore, Ahsoka didnt kill him and he didnt surrender, so he is still the ruler.
Later, Kenobi killed Maul in Tatooine. A few years later, VADER killed Kenobi, which makes Vader the Ruler of Mandalore.
Then, Vader died passively and Peacefully, by his wounds, so I guess the title passes to Vader's Heir- His first born- Luke.
Is it possible that Luke is the Ruler of Mandalore? I have just thought of it and I couldnt get it of my mind. PLEASE HELP!
Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni= Balance in the Force. Take a fresh, simple story into the Star Wars universe and "once in a while" sprinkle lore/cannon that is applicable. Ties everything together.
Rosario Dawson at moments, when she would grin or curl her lip a particular way, it was soooo Ahsoka Tano, just perfect. This episode was so amazing for so many reasons. People getting caught up with her head tails being a little short, really just helps illustrate how ridiculous some SW fans are.
People have to complain. Even if 99.5% was spot on.
Filoni said that it is "possible" that this episode is taking place before the end of Rebels. Which makes sense. If that is true, we forget about Ezra as the Jedi who will "sense" Grogu. Three more episodes for the season and already it is like Sam Witwer said. It is blowing the fans' minds!
If that's true, Dave needs to get with Lucasfilm's Story Group (gag), talk to Hidalgo (?), and get all the websites that have latest version of Canon to change it. Cuz for last 3 years, Canon says that Ahsoka arrived in Lothal in 5 ABY (soon after Battle of Endor in 4 ABY). Same websites and Lucasfilm say that Mando Show takes place in 9 ABY, five years after Endor. Google search: Fandom Search for Ezra.
@@BoandDebbieMulder Maybe they are considering to change it. Because if Ahsoka had indeed found Ezra (she's been searching for 5 years?) then she would tell Mando to go and find him. I don't think they have specified when Ahsoka and Sabine started the search. From what I've heard they are all just assumptions. Is it official, from LucasFilms, that Ahsoka went to Lothal one year after the events of Episode 6?
@@evanskan6326 Hey there. Since 2018, Official Canon lists 5 ABY as the year Ahsoka & Sabine began their Search for Ezra. It's the final scene of the Series Finale S4xE16:
"Family Reunion and Farewell"
starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Family_Reunion_%E2%80%93_and_Farewell
More Details on The Search For Ezra
starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Search_for_Ezra
@@BoandDebbieMulder Still Filoni said it is "possible" that Mando is taking place before that scene which means that either they are thinking of changing it or the 5 ABY date is incorrect. We will see soon I guess.
This makes me so happy
I have no one to really talk to about SW and extended universe lore
I'm over here screaming like, "Yesss! That's what I thought too!"
I think Din is a force sensative on the level of han solo. It makes him a better pilot and sharpshooter, as well as improving his intuition.
That’s exactly what I would like to see. Even with the aspect of how Finn had the instincts of the force in the rise of skywalker
i wish episodes were in the average hour range like GoT
Josh's point about your channel is something I have noticed as a fan of yours as well. I always find myself back at your page over other SW TH-camrs, you can tell how deeply you truly understand the universe and how much work you put into keeping up with the stories and you really do make everything so approachable and easy to follow, for me, your comic series is a prime example of this. I never read or kept up with them until I found your channel because the way you bring them to life and explain their position in the timeline/universe is wonderful and I personally have never left one of your videos confused or overwhelmed by the sweatiness of the lore of such a massive and complex universe. If anything I think SW should hire you.
My favorite thing about this show is that you two guys can make such a great conversation that it just lasts 2.5 to 3.h hours I'm still waiting for the first 4 hour episode... May The Force Be With You Always
I started my star wars channel and I have a lot of great theory and fan fiction but haven't made any videos yet kinda nervous I hate my voice.
@Kylo Ren thanks
Theory is just nerd Joe rogan😂
@Imaginary Penguin He voted for Jo Jorgensen but yeah, not understanding @3’s comment
@3 Trump won anyway
Mmm no not imo theory is a totally different individual
@3 no one knows theories affiliation and it should be kept that way we’re here for Star Wars
Yeah. But not what these comments think. He's Rogan in the sense he started out super cool now he's getting full of himself and still doesn't understand Interacting with Josh in a healthy manner. He belittles Josh and doesn't even understand he's doing it.
The sequels just feel so rushed and disjointed. I agree with josh that it needs more fleshing out, why did Luke get to that point in TLJ, we need more reasons, we need to see why.
Great podcast as always
Please take this as the compliment it is meant to be, I love how nerdy you guys are discussing all this stuff. I love star wars and scifi in general and bad in the day I was pretty good at fanboy discussions, but I never had the ability to absorb and remember it the way you guys do. You are much better fans than I ever was.
being a fan is all about just enjoying it man! we’re all star wars fans regardless of our memory lol! hope all is well
I hop Cal, imagine the interactions between Grogu and BD-1
"May the Force be with you."
Loving this, but had to hit pause at 26:40 because I haven't read all the Thrawn books yet. SO much to catch up on, but have been loving it and following the channel. Since this episode and realizing what all of it meant (having watched a few seasons of Clone Wars by that point and being familiar with Rebels enough to know about Thrawn), I've finally finished Clone Wars, Rebels, The Dark Disciple, and the Ahsoka book. Watching Bad Batch and moving to the Thrawn books now and then I think I'll feel like I'm finally caught up enough to start catching up on this Podcast. Thanks for such great content and conversations!
Din Djarin will be the one to defeat Gideon for the Dark Saber and become Mandal'or.
It seems like the most sensible arc for him for sure
Thinking about that gets me so hyped man I can’t wait till next year or two for all of that
Grogu the foundling will become a mandalorian jedi. More of a wise grey jedi
Din Djarin has no weapon that can combat the darksaber though
This is who I am yeah he does if you watched the last episode he just got the beskar spear that fought against Ashoka
Why would thrawn let gideon jeep the darksaber? He’s known to be a collector, it makes more sense to me that thrawn is either still lost and they were just setting up ashoka’s series or on a different faction than gideon
Are we not going to talk about David Prows passing away? The man in the costume of the most iconic villain ever.
They did
Firstly the fact that they are being tracked makes every episode thrilling until we see gideon finally show up. Also would it not be the ultimate closing of a full circle with Ahsoka meeting the son of her master who failed her and luke telling her that he was redeemed and he defeated sidious. Good video guys.
I would think Ahsoka feels like she failed him by not being there when he may have needed her especially since she says "I won't leave you not this time" when they duel, and to find out that he came back and sacrificed himself to save luke and destroy the sith would relieve her
When Ahsoka says his memory becomes dark. That may not necessarily be a Sith or dark side thing. It could have been because he was in hiding with someone so he couldnt use his force powers. Then we have to figure out how he ended up with those aliens on that planet and why did the Empire have a bounty out on him. Was he stolen from them or did they just find out where he was?
My mind will definitely blow if the force user who responds to Grogu is Galen Marek (Starkiller)!
Can anyone imagine Grogu being trained and then riding on Mando’s back just deflecting bolts with the force and sending them back at enemies. Bro that would be amazing.
Im just happy that this reminds why i fell i love with starwars in the first place. Was so excited seeing this show, have not felt that way about starwars in a while, im happy i can still find joy in the starwars world.
Asoka has to talk to Luke they hold each others closure his parents and Anakin redemption she has to find out
This is so true. Didn't think about it.
They have to figure out a way to retcon Luke's death with the World between Worlds. Instead of 'dying' write a reason to need Luke being pulled into it like the Yuuzhan Vong etc. His death and the final scene of Rise are just so bad that it needs retcons.
I cannot agree MORE!
Somebody has probably already pointed it out, but don't remove that Microflash plate on the sabre, that is screen accurate and the real one was exactly the same. The original sabre prop was built off of a camera flashgun.
So Yaddle was last seen in the Phantom Menace and Ashoka was introduced afterwards. I think yaddle took him . Before Ashoka , that’s why she says she only knew one other like Grogu.
This podcast makes my day
swt at every good idea:
" yea cool! "
So for the animation vs. life action. I personally find it very hard to see another actor play an iconic character. So I’d like to see a rebels sequel and maybe have Luke in it where they can animate him to look like the OG Luke and then use marks voice. Also so Ashley can play Ashoka again. Animated Ahsoka feels right to me. That’s where she started. Live action is cool don’t get me wrong but animation for a revels sequel feels like home to me.
Agreed
this channel/streams on monday really bring me back to my childhood and just loving star wars it’s a great time to be a fan of star wars and star wars theory!
I hope they just forget about the sequel trilogy. No one wants to see any of those characters ever again
Straight up
If Din was force sensitive, Ahsoka would have known, and said something...
The fight scenes and Asoka design is better than anything Disney did in episodes 7, 8 and 9... nothing even comes close. This one episode of the Mandalorian made the entire Disney trilogy looks like a junior high project.
This collaboration keeps giving me life. Thanks guys.
the issue of ahsoka not training grogu because of the age, what was luke? he was 19 when he started,
i have two questions, has anakin visited ahsoka as she is a huge part of him , and then has she met luke
luke was the only hope
Clickbait...Did you ever heard the tragedy of Mike Zeroh’’The bait’’?
Funny shit
He is the worst lol i don't get why Thory defends him
Bahahaha
@@garlicpie95 I'm pretty sure he just means as a person. Pretty sure he has spoken to him before.
Den of Nerds: Look what Palpatine did to the absolute best of the Jedi, Anakin!
SWT: Anakin wasn't the best.
Den of Nerds: Yeah, you're right.
Hell yeah I listen to these all day at work. I’ve gone back and been listening to all of them in order. It’s still fun hearing you two shoot the shit even though I’ve seen the season and knowing what happens.
Its really nuts how close this was. Well fucking done boys.
RIGHT?!
Wouldn’t it be cool if force ghost Yoda showed up and talked to Grogu?!?
“Committed a crime to give birth to you I did, underaged Yaddle was birth control I tried”
@@iarrived731 oh no 😭😭😭
Yes
Yessssss
Coming back to these after Nerd Theory ended is just bittersweet and makes me miss the show even more. This was a great episode.
GroGu is a replicant of Yoda. His species can replicate itself in certain stages of life by consuming unfertilized eggs of other creatures and creates a true clone of itself. Such as what happens with bacteria creating more bacteria through binary fission. This is Yoda but as a replicant of himself. GroGu is the 1st stage of growth grow from goo?
The hint was given by the curly fro lady on Tatooine, saying she wants one if this guy selfs, replicates, divides.
"Im insulted as a Star Wars fan" lol
I was very stoked, then very panicked when they said the name "Thrawn" in the episode. Been a big fan for years, and we just got a new book this year. I really, really hope they get it right.
I think they nailed Ahsoka Tahno, so it gives me hope.
@Imaginary Penguin no, I'm realistic.
What I really enjoy about listening to this podcast is how both of your have your own opinions and you’re both not just sitting there agreeing with each other on every little thing.
4:20 - Josh "The other thing that's crazy thing about it is, Ahsoka might not even be the craziest thing that happens in the episode (show). Ahsoka might not be even the craziest reveal." This was a spot on prediction. Had stuff on autoplay and this old stream came up. Its weird listening to it again cause it feels like just yesterday watching it and yet it was over a year ago.
Ok, If Luke shows up, the only reason to do it is to show Luke with his full Jedi Powers. And if they do that, it needs to be Mark Hamill. He deserves to have a final bad ASS scene in the Star Wars universe.
i feel like he’s too old now
@@mcnizzzle3961 Mark as Luke in a show doesn't have to be young luke, it can be luke like right before he goes into hiding. That whole story of why luke disconnected himself from the force needs to be told properly. They can deage him if needed.
@@drawwing thought we were only talking about the mandalorian, which would make him too old for this time frame unless they gave him a ton of CGI. or as a force ghost but that excludes the bad ass scene
Loving these stream's keep em up🔥👍
The thing I'm REALLY hoping for but know probably won't happen is that we get a flashback to order 66, we get to see Grogu overhear the conversation or interaction between Palatine and Anakin that takes Anakin from just officially admitting he's willing to be evil, to full on slaughtering children. I want more context for that moment told through Grogus perspective. I want to see the torture and remorse in Anakin's eyes as even HE can't believe what he's doing. I want to see him actively stomping out the last bits of humanity he has in that moment and the internal conflict that comes with that. End it with Grogu being the only jedi/padawan in the temple to show the potential to fight back against Anakin, prompting Palatine to spare him for testing to further his cloning ambitions he was using as a failsafe in case he couldn't figure out how to prolong his life with the force alone...which he couldn't.
Can't wait for these to come to Spotify, love listening to you to whilst working! 🎧
Bringing in Luke Skywalker at this stage would overshadow Grogu And Djarin . I think Ezra will come into play later on.
Whatever happened to the rule of two??
It does seem out of character for Luke to strike down Ben, but we don't know the context.
For one thing I think Luke was almost jump-scared by a vision and just instinctively turned on his saber in that moment, but he stopped himself (just like he stopped himself from killing Vader), he had no intention to kill Ben. But it was too late, Ben just saw the saber come out and from his POINT OF VIEW (something important to SW) Luke had betrayed him.
I think that could've been more explicitly conveyed in the film; that Luke was a victim in a way, he was plagued by dark visions that may have been fed to him by Palpatine. Of course it wasn't known at the time that Palps would come back, but that's my head canon to justify it.
The ST had problems but with SW the good always outweighs the bad aspects for me. Even certain aspects I wasn't stoked on I can just accept, and forgive it, and move on. Sure characters weren't always developed the best, there were pacing issues, and oddly missed opportunities but at the end of the day when SW is good it's good, and the good will always triumph over the bad.
I'm absolutely loving the new season of Mando, and look forward to the future.
Regarding the Clone Wars: Maybe you know this already, but there still exist 40 unfinished Clone Wars episodes (,due to its cancellation through Disney in 2014), which would have played out before the final arc of season 7 (,I think). I would love to see these missing episodes on screen one day (,in some form).
Also, I think Ahsoka's head-tails/Lekku and head-horns/Montrals (in this/"The Jedi" episode) are a bit short for her age, but they probably couldn't make them bigger because of practical reasons, I guess. Also, her white markings on her cheeks don't go all the way back to her head-tails/Lekku, unlike in Rebels and unlike in the concept art at the end of this episode. The rest of her looked pretty accurate, though (IMO).
STOP trying to make EVERYBODY heroic in Star Wars a “Force Wielder”. Just stop.
Din just doesn’t seem like the type, might be cool for a different show but not this one. Reminds me of the main character in Advent Rising by Orson Scott Card, so I can see the appeal in wanting a normal guy to become a biotic god.
I don’t think it ends on Luke showing. I think it’s Ezra.
Please make that Nerd Theory logo larger on the thumbnail! I almost missed it...
Oh, hey Mike good to see you arround
@@tirkon9798 Thanks!
for sure my favorite podcast! don’t stop
Don’t know if anyone said this already but what if thrawn is also after the dark saber??? He has a knack for collecting
Is it possibility their is still a settlement of people on tython??
Idk man it’s possible

@@scruffled7836 gotta get the convo started a little
@@k_boom3060 that’s great🤣
Watch the scene in the first episode when Mando first sees Grogu. Then watch that training scene again. Both shots when they connect shows them zoom in to mandos helmet.
Definitely a possibility that Din is Force Sensitive.
Theory’s comments about how he started his channel, when he was bored at home were so relatable! I wasn’t that big into Star Wars, but then I broke my leg and had all this downtime. I watched so many TH-cam videos on Star Wars. Including many from this channel and also that Mace Windu as Snoke theory. The nostalgia is crazy in this!
Hope you put segments like this into podcasts... i would love them listening while driving
In Dave we trust
I like the energy of this podcast! No knock on your previous RO2 podcast, but this one gives me more of the fizz -Josh 👍👊
Thaznks for tuning me into the total past history of what I Didn't know of the timeline ... it really helped me figure it out ...MORE .... !!! the force is with US !!!
I love how i get on and now its over 😭
I hope he isn't force sensitive, not everyone needs to be a force wielder
What u mean? He was the only force sensitive one on the show till this last episode.
@@peteputros6508 think he meant mando
Oh I wouldn't have thought that. Bc if he was force sensitive he would of know by now. He's def not.
@@peteputros6508 Leia didn't know she was force sensitive until return of the jedi
@@festo8756 no empire when luke called out to leia when her lando and the rest where leaving cloud city and she immediately turns the ship around to save luke.
Why does everyone think the lady from squadrons is the same one who put the tracker on mandos ship, just because they’re the same species? The squadrons character fought in the clone wars along side clones and later the new republic. Why would she work with the empire post Endor when she is in a vital new republic squadron?
I realize this is super old but I feel the need to chime in about the conversation around 23:30. Din felt a connection to Grogu because they’re both orphans. He came upon a child who was abandoned just like he was and he took him in as a foundling just like the Mandalorians who took him in.
In my opinion, trying to explain it away with the ‘force’ cheapens their bond and diminishes Din’s backstory and trauma.
"Oh, whatever"
This is exactly how I feel when people are negative about the sequels
