- The Mandalorian Season 3 episode 1 review is back after it's previous 2 series and Star Wars Boba Fett tie in on Disney Plus. Set after the events of Obi-Wan Kenobi it features the Mandalorian fighting across the galaxy with sidekick baby Yoda Grogu. But with previous Disney+ Star War series we have to ask, is The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 1 premiere worth watching?

The Mandalorian is back with season 3 episode 1 on Disney Plus and well, it's more Mandalorian. If you liked the previous seasons, you'll like this it's very much more of the same (without Cara Dune). Odd long sections of nothing happening for a 33ish minute episode but it does have a crocodile fight, blasters and a space battle in it. Although the script left a lot to be desired and a lot of this feels like a vehicle for Baby Yoda merch. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
At first, I thought this episode was a flashback on how Djin became a Mandalorian. But nope. Mando saves other Mandalorians from a giant crocodile.
It was difficult for me to tell from your over the top cynicism whether you genuinely disliked every single detail of the episode, or if you were just being on brand for your channel. “Merch!”
I like the political/managerial exposes and not so much the reviewings. They are well done, but I don't want to be exposed to the material being reviewed.
I'd rather have Baby Appa.
What an absolute shitshow.
When the only half decent thing is a little green puppet. You know what youre watching is a load of bollocks.
Imagine if the Ewoks were the best things from Return of the Jedi lol.
Peoples standards are so low these days. They'll eat this crap up, and say how much they love consuming it.
How it started: Cold, calculating killer, goes on a personal mission to do what's right for a literal infant.
How it's going: The armor man and baby show, where the armor man takes a baby to gun fights for no reason (merch), see what wacky hijinks they get into this week!
Amazing how quickly these shows dive into drivel these days. A season lasts 10 episodes these days. Long are the days of 26 episode seasons for 7 seasons or more -- back when the writing was top-notch for most of the run. This episode was pretty lame and this is only episode 1 of Season 3.
I’d take it 500x quicker than watching Obi Wans self esteem get continuously mulched by writers making him try to admit he’s dumber than a 5 year old.
This comment reads like a commercial for a 80's sitcom 🤣 Great comment
Reactors: Thumbnail with close-up of baby while reactor cries.
They only keep baby Yoda around for merch. Heck they didn't even bring him back in this series so whoever didn't watch the boba Fett show is gonna be confused as hell
I think the biggest mistake this show made was keeping grogu in it. The mandalorian should've delivered the child to Luke, and carried on being a badass bounty hunter with his own unique stories. They could even make a separate show set in the future about grogu all grown up as a kickass Jedi.
When a random youtube commenter comes up with better ideas for a SW show than any of the highly paid writers on the actual show, you have a problem.
Yea you seriously came up with a perfect way to save the show while keeping grogu relevant and badass , now we got kindergarten wack cop and home alone kid doing duo episodes on cartoon network -_-
I am pretty sure that was the original plan, and then Disney saw the merch sell like hotcakes and reconsidered.
I’m still gobsmacked that that little green puppet cost FIVE MILLION DOLLARS to fabricate. Adjusted for inflation, Jabba the Hutt, a more convincing animatronic from FORTY YEARS AGO, cost only two million. Let that sink in.
it's called Money Laundering. LOL
Yeah, that puppet can NEVER cost 5 millions, especially since it is so unbelievably wooden it is not even cute anymore.
This is not the first time I suspect money laundering. I believe there are MANY cases of combining theft by promoting the message.
The Grogu puppet is actually 100 feet tall. They shrink him down during CGI post-production. XD
Alright alright I’ll let the sink in
Money laundering for the pointless wars , greed and straight up scamming and lazy cgi
They made a kid-sized helmet that he’s never supposed to take off. That’s gonna hurt in a couple years.
I totally thought the beginning was a flashback to din becoming a mandalorian... until he came swooping in to save the day!
Me too, mostly because they all had such colour, plastic, pristine looking armour that didn’t match a ‘we are a dying race’ context…I mean, unless that is exactly why they are going extinct lol
They are hunters dressed in extremely flashy, very noticeable armour.
You and everyone else.
I most definitely didn’t, that helmet was blue lmao. And the armor lady who’s as old as mando looked and sounded the same as current day. Context clues, people.
It's because Moff Gideon and the Empire killed off the Mandalorians in Season 1.
Holy crap same
It’s sad that my thought process is “if half the episodes are decent I’ll be content”. Makes me realize how modern content has gotten so bad that my expectations are almost nonexistent.
Edit: I actually paid attention to the comments and did not watch the new season. My wife had Disney plus and I made her cancel it on 4/3/2023 to save face.
Pretty much
Never watched a single episode but I've enjoyed the critics commentary of the show so that's a zero minuses plus.
That happened with me about the marvel movies
Stop fucking watching it; it is the same tired crap since season 1; Disney milks it until the teet is withered to dust, and there you are, still sucking
@@pyropulseIXXI Why would I want to watch it? I decided Disney was only $uckling the 💵 teet decades ago. Watching the reviewers provides something actually entertaining.
Disney only deserves to be watched through reviews now, Disparu Mandalorian is good enough for me.
Karga: "You and the little one can settle down here. We have plenty of space -:you can have Cara Dune's old house."
Mando: "Where's she?"
Karga: "...we don't talk about that "
Cara dune had the biggest balls for giving middle finger to Disney and basically calling them Nazis lol , she was 100% correct , that's why they killed her character off screen ....kathine kunt Kennedy couldn't bare the truth , flat out I'd call her a Nazi and a dried up douche bag right to her face lol F Disney and everything they touch or pass by
I miss how old movie from the 1990s had like 30 seconds of credits,
main cast, producers, film crew leads, prop maker firm, studio name
done.
The disney/marvel/starwar 5-10 min credit is getting looooong
The worse the shows become, the longer the credits.
Gotta pad out that runtime somehow!
@@VictorNewman201 LOL
maybe it is how it got so bad
design by committee is how creativity die
This show seems to be suffering right out of the gate from terrible writing… and my first thought is… He needs a new ship, it’s not my main problem but it is a significant problem he is a bounty hunter with a fighter instead of something that can carry his gear and supplies and possibly bounties… And then he need someone to rewrite the script… but definitely the ship thing
Edit Dash I take it back… I watched more of this and it’s definitely the writing… The writing is the biggest problem, the ship thing can wait
My jaw was touching the ground during his conversation with the armorer. It read like a 6th grader's play. People got payed to write that???
He's not focussing on bounty anymore tho.
does it seem like hes bounty hunting now? no...
The thing with the ship is, that even if he is not doing bounties right now, he's spending significant time in there while taking care of the little merch-bait. How is he doing basic stuff needed for living?
Dude. The change to his ship was to show how his moving on from taking Bounties. How have you not caught on to that fact since he stopped being a Bounty hunter since he's now aiming to help restore Mandalor.
That bit when they introduced 'new merchandising opportunity' at the robot repair shop.
They tried introducing that particular one in The Rise of Palpatine.
The access media tried pushing that one very hard at the time, and it was hilarious to see it ignored.
Just to note about forges, it takes alot more fuel to bring a forge up to temperature than it is to maintain forging temperature. That's why forges are left burning like that. Do I think Disney knows that....hell no. I think they just got lucky! 🤣
"He fired her because she was speaking too much sense on Twitter" - Disparu
Based 100%
"Based Economy"
What sense did she ever speak? Also, the comment that got her fired was said on Instagram, not on Twitter.
@@Markunator It really doesn’t matter, if you make yourself a public target like that in any type of drama, companies aren’t gonna wanna be part of it.
@@dryfox11 That would make sense if they had fired Pedro Pascal for comparing MAGA to Na zis, but they didn't, proving the double standard.
The target lock scene with the wildly missing lasers from the capital ship is such an analogy for Disney trying to entertain fans (or anyone).
Except that they aren’t even trying
@@bloodrunsclear But they are still claiming to in order to make the shareholders not panic. Which should at least require to point your lascannon in the general direction of the enemy and yell 'PiiiIIIIIuuuuUUU, piiiiIIIIuuuUUUU!'. Disney though points its cannon in the opposite direction and has its dirty laundry hang out on it.
I’m still pissed baby’s Yoda is back so soon, I’m not falling for the cuteness, when this season should’ve started with him on his own and slowly get them back together that’s the story, but it’s done so we gotta move on😢 oh well hopefully this season is good and not shit like OBIWAN or boba fart
They didn't even bother to explain how grogu ended up with him. What did they expect us to watch Boba fett to link things up? Was too rushed.
@@Lone_Star86 Favreau said to watch youtube.
I like how as opposed to mandalorians of the past, the new recruits have absolutely no way to redeem themselves... because the mando's of today are still running the same old rules, which involve places that to their knowledge are fubar and unaccessible. Not updating procedures is apparently "the way ":D
A robot dragging itself one armed across a floor, where's Sarah Conner when you need her?
And was destroyed by being crushed to boot!
I love these reviews of TV shows I have no intention of watching! You just make your reviews so darned entertaining I can’t resist. 😁
The first 2 series are actually pretty decent, kind of came to a natural end though. But because it was fairly successful, and liked…here we are!
@@GIBBO4182 money rules all
@@johnynoway9127 it’s their only real popular Star Wars content
@@GIBBO4182 honestly... GOOD
I hate new Disney.
What do i give my kid to watch now?
Most shows are shit now full of propagandized inclusivity to the point that the only message is LGBTQRS is a thing.
Story telling and imagination and any form of good life lessons be damned.
Fuck em all.
Luckly we can find indie (small dev teams) of animators that kick ass.
A relativelly new and creative cartoon series is: Love Death and Robots
3 seasons each episode around 10 minutes.
You got youtube creators like:David Firth and Animator vs Animation.
We have a ton of content thats really good buried under the mass shit stain that is Disney who consumes all it can find.
@@GIBBO4182 they're really not, you've just been conditioned to garbage.
I want to point out that all their jetpacks have missiles on them and one of them couldn't think of using the missiles that they have on their backs lol. Even how does it take so long for mando to put down one broken robot but it took one shot in the first episode of season one lol.
Baby Yoda tried to eat one of the missiles so they had to weld them in so they don't fire anymore.
@@KasumiKenshirou ahh yes, weld a missile, instead of not having them in. Seems like a great plan
It was at close range and right in the head, not all have missiles Din's doesn't. Boba heavily modded all his gear. He didn't have an armorer.
@@tonyjackson4078 umm, close range, when you have a jet pack that lets you get away quick and out of range… smart
@@shadowjezzter To be fair, most of them were a bit busy trying to save their compatriots who were stuck in the water/getting slap boxed by the lizard
I think your targeting computer on that capital ship MIGHT be wonky. I get that pirates are not known for their diligent practice and training but DAMN. And it would have been so stupidly easy to make the Nitro button work. Just have the ship blasters all line up on Mando because they are on the same targeting lock and just an instant before they fire, he punches the Nitro and all the bolts pass through where he WAS instead of where he IS. Seriously, I'm pretty sure ChatGT is directing this show.
“If you switch your brain off some scenes are fine” the gold standard for Disney these days
The Mandalorian feels like a video game with too many side quests and not enough main plot
Kill the target. You didn't kill the target? Deliver the target.
You feel bad? Here, money. Oh, you still feel bad? Here, that material to make your armor for Merch.
Imma save the target. I'm now wanted in 17 states for kidnapping the target.
@@authorofgriz I’ll be careful
the 3 seasons are all the same; people really are fools, that they keep sucking at the withered Disney teet. Disney cannot make a legit show; they find a 'successful formula' for Mando and just put that on repeat until the mindless husk of 'fans' stop watching, which is apparently never. Keep sucking that teet, stupid 'fans.'
No way, the main storyline is...um...hang on, give me a minute...
Haters
Ah Disparu's summaries - the only way I can get entertainment from Disney products these days. Keep on keeping on mate!
Who holds coming of age ceremonies in a lake infested with giant crocodiles immune to lasers and explosives?
Who thinks of an assassin robot as his friend?
Who walks around in enough curtains to equip a music hall?
And who brings a baby to a gunfight with pirates?
The Morondalorian
The Morondalorian
Mandalorians do. They are a warrior culture hell they even adopt kids from warzones if they prove themselves.
And why did the Goblin turn on the stove?
Who sacrifices people to try and make it rain
Who worships those who have killed millions
Who devotes themselves to corrupt beliefs
Religions real or fictional have extreme flaws within them that people tend to overlook because they devote themselves to it. The Christian god has killed literal millions and millions but whenever it's brought up you'll be met with a billion excuses as to why it's okay.
"It just makes me want another Gremlins movie."
Careful what you wish for, man. We don't wish upon a star anymore. Now it's on a monkey's paw.
I guarantee you that Cara Dune was 'recruited by Special Forces' so that they can change her face for an undercover op, hiring a new actress
Recast Cara opening monologue when Mando sees her: “I had to get a face modification from the Kark-Tarrs. It didn’t go as planned, but hey, at least folks don’t know who I am. All those problems from my past are now forgotten, and I can finally be what I need and want to be…a lesbian, non-binary, they/them special forces fighter who won’t submit to no new empire.”
NGL thought exactly that
I’ve never understood how in Season 1 Ep. 1, Mando shoots I-G in the head once and completely obliterates his head. Season 3 Ep. 1 shoots I-G 50,000 times and not even a scratch.
It survived a grenade inside it's chest but bullets being ineffective is where you draw the line?
@TheScarletSlayer you are missing the point. He got one shotted in season one now his head is like Beskar how did he all of a sudden become invulnerable to being shot in the head by the same blaster that blew him away in season one.
@@dehcaptain the fact that Mando shot him point blank. And even then apparently it didn't kill him bad enough to where he couldn't be repaired. Course they did say they were lucky enough to recover his pieces so perhaps they had to have him restored with some more durable metal to make IG presentable in the town square.
Nanomachines, son!
They Hyperspace whale things are introduced in the Rebels animated series. Ezra communicates with them through the Force, and it gets used in the final confrontation.
Which is clearly more set-up for the Ahsoka show since that's following up on the Rebels show...
@@philnorfleet1371 Facts. Those and Mandalorian are all Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau projects, so there're lots of Easter eggs and references.
Honestly, I thought it was one of my favorite parts of the episode. For folks that -do- know what’s going on, it makes you wonder if they’re going to bring back Ezra in Mando like they did with Ahsoka, or wait for her show.
Hyperspace beings are also set up in expanded universe. Some weird stuff that 40k did way better (warp beings).
@@steffanyschwartz7801 not really in 40k there are creatures that live in the warp but these are creatures that live in normal space but can travel in Hyperspace but as people said this maybe a way to introduce them into the live action universe so when Ahsoka gets made and encounters them people who have only seen the live action and not The Rebels animated series where they were introduced aren't wondering where they came from
you just came up with a brilliant marketing idea, Grogu shaped rugby balls!
For as long as we been waiting for it I was expecting more than 36 minutes with credits.
I mean Mando hates (at least hated) droids why would he be good at fixing them? 16:37
He’s good at ships, vehicles and guns. A droid is the equivalent of a super high tech computer. Give any mechanic a desktop with an issue and see how well they do xD
She was making the bowl for the water, not the helmet in that scene.
The morbidly brave joke earned you the thumbs up.
Cara Dune has been tasked with returning Princess Leia home, but she's been running into tree branches the last 18 months. There's no telling when she'll be back.
Mexican Stand-off is three people with their guns all pulled and pointed at each other. What those two were doing was a simple pistol duel, Old West style. In my defense, I waited til you said it the second time before I started furiously typing on my keyboard
This show is called "Plot Armor Man and his sidekick All-You-Can-Eat".
The giant space squid were introduced in the Rebels TV show and it's extremely rare for someone to see them. They play a major part in Rebels' main character, Ezra Bridger's story and they are most definitely going to lead up to reintroducing that character. That will probably happen in the Ahsoka series, but they are laying down a few breadcrumbs now, already. I'm sure they'll explain more about the space squid and how rarely they are seen as the narrative goes on, for those who don't already know about them from Rebels, while they are a signal for those who have seen Rebels that Ezra Bridger will be returning.
I passed knight of the old republic 2 months ago and I Learned that the maladnorie use high level tactics when fighting monster they know it'll need multiple people to take down and that they do it as effectively as they can so they don't waste man or struggle as much but since this Is disney here they dont bother with the lore ..
.
As soon as they bought the franchise they decanonized KOTOR and almost all the comics.
@@steffanyschwartz7801 I love the knight of the old republic games although I admit I only passed the second game but I love how it question both sides and showed the flaws in both sides Kirea was a fantastic mentor in the game her wisdom was aweome and the voice actor was superb . Luke Skywalker was able to find a balance remaking the jedi order so the past mistakes aren't repeated but then disney destroy the canon universe and destroy the star wars universe in a span of 3 movies:(
To be fair, if they just showed how absolutely OP mandaloroans really are, the fight would’ve been like 30 seconds and not that stressful/interesting. They want to show that the last of their people are in disarray, so I can understand the longer fight… even if it’s against an over glorified lizard
The creatures in Hyperspace are the Purrgil.
These were shown in Rebels and will be important in the Ahsoka show.
Baby Yoda is the only thing making Disney money!!!😂😂😂
I doubt it will given the state of starwars is at the moment
I remember reading one of the Solo twin books. And in it they have to fight that same assassin droid. And it is a very famous assassin droid for one particular reason. Because there are multiple copies of it. If one is destroyed, another one in a secret location somewhere in the universe will be activated. And still go after the target that it was sent to assassinate. And the reason why it's in a secret location is because the person who made the droid was some type of mad crazy scientist person who went out of their way to develop one of the most perfect assassin droids. And we'll keep coming after it's target to the Target is dead and the bounty is complete or the bounty has been canceled. Destroying one will only stop it for a few months as the replacement will make its way to you. So they are acting as if in this show that this is the only one of it kind and that they only really added it in because they showed it in one of the Star wars movies. Empire strikes back and put it in there for nostalgia reasons without understanding any of the lore behind it.
You would think that Disney would have kept the extended universe and all that other stuff. Because all that would have required them do is read a shitload of books. Watch some stuff online. And they probably be able to come up with much better original stories and adapt extended universe stories for this stuff. But they didn't. They decided to hire cheap writers who don't know how to write anything. And decided to get rid of all the extended universe. I guess Disney doesn't want to be crediting other people and has to pay them royalty money instead of them getting all the money. Personally I think they would have been better off keeping the extending universe and having better stories to rely on and they would have been seen a lot more viewership and stuff.
Gotta love that Swamp Thing cameo lol
Dude, I was thinking the same thing!
Is not swamp thing, is a repurposed pizza the hutt!
@@nickdirienzo2849 Same here.
8:10 "Aww! Lookit the dangling keys! Look how they jingle jangle when I give them a shake!"
Exactly what I wanted this year. 2 shows where pedro pascal carries around his annoying sidekick and does absolutely nothing for about half the season.
Those creatures in hyperspace with the same creatures that were in the last episode of Star Wars Rebel hinting at Ezra from what it looks like.
27:32 on the topic of Mandalore being progressive and leaving behind its culture. During the Clone Wars, Mandalore's leader at the time was actively trying to put behind all the old warrior traditions and become a pacifist culture. Something good ole Bo here apposed too. Was even complicit in the actions that led to the death of said leader (her Sister by the way) and left Mandalore uner the rule of Maul. To which after the brief civil conflict, she tried to organise and unite the Mandalorians. Which by evidence of this show and Rebels means she has failed twice to do so.
So, in summary, giving the context of D cannon she is talking a whole lot of bullocks.
"Complicent"? What do you mean, "complicit" or "complacent"?
@IMP3TIGO i meant complicit. Changed it now. Thanks for that, I am generally a bad speller and couldn't sound it out at the time🤣
@@ryhnoking hehe yea. I only asked because it could work with either word.
How long would the episode have been if Baby Yoda was not in season 3?
Still got 5 more baby adventure episodes before the plot kicks in.
I always wondered how the armored can say he isn't mandolorian anymore, despite him having the dark saber which could unite all the mandolorians under him, as mandolore. ( if I understand the lore properly )
Not completely accurate, you don't have to be a mandalorian to wield the dark saber. It's won by combat so as long as you defeat the previous wielder in battle literally anyone can have the saber. Sense Mando was the last person to win it in battle he is now the owner even though he isn't a mandalorian
Your putting away too much stock into that "this is the way" bunch they're just some religious splinter group.
To follow up on the above comment, another example of this in is the clone wars when darth maul wins the dark saber from a mandalorian leader. If you haven’t seen the clone wars I highly recommend it, it’s some of the best Star Wars ever
I mean the other thing to bring up about the crocodile monster that had to be brought up is that this is the planet where the mandolorians are making their armor that means they would know about these creatures on the planet and because they are also mandolorians there would be some kind of rituals where they defeat them.
Would definitely make a cooler sigil than a mudhorn
Lamo how TF would a kid kill that thing? It literally took out adult mandalorians.
@@Dragonk116 that was my point. How are the strongest bounty hunters in this galaxy this weak.
@@benjamintworek They aren't week but you have to remember, fees for more or less recruited mercenaries that joined to become mandalorian later.... And they obviously have a limited amount of resources, and I doubt they would have let a foundling take on something that big... Just to kill that dragon from season 2 took an entire squad of people, but they were better armed and prepared.... These Mando's weren't because they were caught off guard that's how they died in season 1 too.... So personally I don't think they're week they're just very unprepared with a clear lack of leadership that mano do probably will step up to be the next mandalorian king or whatever.
A trained killer knows to go for an opponents weak point. Even if the Mandos don’t know this basic thing, it still takes an absurd level of stupidity to assume its BACK SHELL is its weak point
I see it as a metaphor for Star Wars today. Like Mandalore, it's been destroyed and stolen from it's rightful inhabitants, and we have to take it back.
How the fuck are you going to do that?
8:52-8:59 "Have a kid of your own. It will last longer." -Disparu 🤣
the name Grogu makes me think the writers just stole the name of baby Roger from American dad and slightly changed it with one letter
Roger walking around with Mando haha
26:14 When Disney gets a new Star Wars fan
I think it did its job. I got what I wanted out of it and look forward to next week. I got used to the pace of Andor, so there was a little bit of adjustment needed. I got board with this latest season of Bad Batch so hopefully this will keep me more engaged.
I wonder if that's what happened with the inquisitor with the umbrella hat from Obi-Wan. Maybe he started out with a helmet, but it really wanted to go flat again.
The way you explained the politics of Mandalore, sounds like woke politics in Hollywood.
That comment about "aprostate" would make a Disparu Dragon Age Playthrough amazing watch.
I always thought old Yoda looked the way he did at least partly because he was so old.
Yep, poor creatures, have a skullet from birth to ☠️.
He did. This even carried over to the Phantom Menace, where the practical puppet they used (which in later edits was replaced by CGI) sported longer and fuller grey hair. It added to the strong implication that in previous centuries, Yoda looked very different from his elderly form. It's even hinted that he might have been larger when young. this of course was all forgotten by the people behind the sequel trilogy or the Mandalorian.
Yet another thing forgotten by the prequel/sequel production teams. Like how Darth Vader's original trilogy helmet was intentionally asymmetrical, so that it was more like a real face, but then that got 'fixed' by the people who made the prequels (because those people were idiots and didn't even bother to watch the 'making of' documentaries from the original trilogy). Or how Vader and ROTJ Luke wore black because that was the colour worn by all historical Jedi - this fact even made it as far as the storyboards for The Phantom Menace, but just before shooting began, Lucas decided audiences were too stupid to remember what Jedi are meant to look like, so gave them all the peasant robes worn by Obi-Wan in ANH.
@@casbyness
-Vader's mask was asymmetrical because it was two pieces individually molded. It wasn't much of a glaring issue in the next two films as the process got better.
-Vader wore black simply because it was Lucas' way of letting the audience know that he was evil, and Luke followed suit in ROTJ to trick the audience into wondering if Luke had fallen, hence him using a force choke. During the final confrontation, Luke's shirt opened, revealing white underneath, a visual reminder that he's pure at his core.
-Storyboards was an easy way of expressing action, they never use the film costumes, they're meant to be quick sketches, and those weren't the ROTJ outfit anyway.
-And shall I remind you that ghost Anakin's robes were no different than Ob-Wans? Or that Lucas' early sketches of young Obi-Wan and Vader had them wearing the same robes even then?
@@willfanofmanyii3751 Ah yes, the post-internet flash-frozen cultural consensus of the millenial generation, where the 'facts' of anything are simply those of the websites with the highest view counts. Nevermind the decades of videos, documentary material, cast and crew interviews, magazine articles, etc that all existed prior to the rise of Reddit - those haven't been scanned/transferred on to webpages, therefore they obviously never existed - the only correct views are the ones your favourite 30-something RUclips movie 'critic' has taught you.
Shall we get into the truly deep lore, from the early 1980s, where Owen Lars was actually Obi-Wan's brother, and not Anakin's? Or the fact that Jabba was originally supposed to simply be the human-looking guy that they retrospectively CG'ed the ROTJ creature over, with the claim "the human was just a stand-in, and we couldn't afford the Jabba puppet until ROTJ" being nothing more than retroactive nonsense?
Perhaps you should pick up an actual book once in a while. One written prior to the prequel trilogy releases, that explains what the actual original intentions and design choices of the original movie production crew were.
Vader's asymmetrial helmet was by design. He and Luke wore black because that was the uniform of the pre-Empire Jedi, who were supposed to resemble jet-black robed Samurai. This is all discussed in-depth by Lucas and his crew in the behind the scenes material for ROTJ. You even see Luke testing his ROTJ costume out of the first time, and Lucas commenting "Okay, NOW you look like a Jedi..."
Or, you know, just continue to have you opinions and beliefs shaped by Wikipedia, like everyone else younger than 40.
@@casbyness The fact you opened by claiming I got this from a website already shows you're a lost cause. Maybe try actually listening to what Lucas has said on the DVDs and commentaries, lol.
"Oh I need that droid part as he is the only one I trust to go to Mandalore with me, better go get that. Nah forget that I'll go join this woman instead even though I know I wont be accepted by her". Do they even look at their previous scenes? No cohesion at all.
I would've actually been interested in this season if grogu wasn't in it. Even though s1 and s2 weren't great, I enjoyed them. The firing of Gina is what made me leave d+
Hope she sees this, bro.
@@bettynug It would be cool if she did, but we both know that she won't. It doesn't change my opinion, though.
Mando watched the prequels.
Anakin: I should try spinning. That's a good trick.
So, in conclusion, the most important plot point this year is: "How will the show's quality be blamed on someone other than JonFav this time?
I seriously can't help but wonder how many people still believe that there's a civil war going on at Lucas Film and that they're going to de-canonize the sequels. Especially since this episode has a Babu Frick cameo.
@@williamcronshaw5262 You can have Babu Frick without the original sequels (like Mara Jade and Thrawn without their original related novels -- which were originally the official canon sequel stories authorized by Lucas!) Notably, what the show doesn't have is Kylo Ren's Darth helmet in the opening credits anymore...!
Anyway, my point is that -- completely aside from whether there's a civil war in Lucasfilm (although I think it's clear there has been a war for control between Favreau and Kennedy at least) -- at some point JonFav has to take some responsibility for the quality, for better or for worse. Bad quality can't entirely be blamed on the acronym he had raiders spraying on a wall. (KK) And once she's gone...
@@jasonpratt5126 Remember the obvious foreshadowing of Snoke in season 2? Remember the second character assassination of Luke Skywalker in Book of Boba Fett that seems oddly in line with his character in the Last Jedi? Sorry man, the sequels aren't going anywhere.
@@williamcronshaw5262 I don't care whether they go anywhere or not; that was not even remotely my point. But I will point out again that, like Frick, those two examples don't mean the sequel trilogy will be staying around: they can be worked into new material. (Although I'm pretty sure Luke's uncharacteristic behavior cannot be blamed on Kennedy!) Or the Mando series itself might be rebooted.
But that's only a technical writing observation. My original point, which has nothing to do with whether the sequels get rebooted, remains: not all the problems in quality come from elsewhere than JF.
L'd-MAO at your target lock capital ship bit! Cannot believe I didn't catch that when I watched it.
I waited for baby Yoda to go “Merch!”
After episode 3 of the Book of Boba Fett, I finally gave up on Disney Star Wars. It took seeing that garbage to be convinced that no one there cared. When I heard that baby yoda was back with the Mandolorian, I was somehow not surprised and also disappointed. It felt like they had no confidence in his story going forward if the puppet wasnt waddling about in half the scenes.
Andor is legitimately a good show. And I don’t mean comparatively, I mean it IS a good show. And no, I also dont mean ‘Its not that bad’ - no, I mean that Andor is, unironically, the BEST new show of 2022.
I mean, notice how Disparu stopped ripping in to it after the first episode.
Its clear that it was a show that Disney already wrote off, allowing the creators to make a good show - i.e lets see how disney ruins it in season 2.
TL;DR = Cassian Andor is the new Mandolorian.
@@lingricen8077No one cares about a boring character that died in a spin-off movie after the bad first two movies in their trilogy getting their own show. A shame they couldn’t give those writers to one of their other projects like i dont know Kenobi maybe. I have no interest to watch Andor even if it’s good. Cassian’s actor is just too bland for me to bare
@@lingricen8077it wasn't good and nobody cares.
I gave up on Disney star wars after 'Force Awakens.' I gave up on the TV shows after Mando season 2, when it was clear it was a literal repeat of season 1; and now season 3 is the same thing. Disney really does just milk every TEET until it is withered to dust, and here are the 'fans,' still sucking at that withered Disney teet. Pathetic
@@spendsshanks6050 Haha “I want good content!”
Okay, watch Andor
“NO I REFUSE TO! Oh woe is me why wont disney make good content”
…Watch Andor
“No! SHUTUP! LALALALLA”
So its not about good content, its just about bias with you.
God you’re pathetic.
Baby Yoda was 100% going to eat that Babu Frick thing.
"Oh look, there's a giant crocodile monster thing!"
"Bugger, I guess we'd best delay the ceremony for a bit until it swims away."
...
"Tell me again why we still blacksmith stuff in this age of technological wonders?"
Wow! I was led to believe this series was ok. But the only reason why I wouldn't call that horse sh_t is because it stinks too much.
My theory is that after the disaster of the sequel trilogy, Disney assumed that the Mandolorian (a show they had already paid for) was going to fail and so were hands off with the production, allowing the creators more freedom. Lo and behold it was a smash hit due to the LACK OF MEDDLING from execs.
So, of course, they had to do a season 2, except this time the execs had their eye on it, and inevitably ruined it by doing the same thing they did with Episode 9: clog it with cameo advertisements, whilst also obviously saying “Do season 1 again!”
This can also be seen with Andor. A show nobody asked for, about a character doomed to die, and being released after the utter disasters of Boba Fett and Obiwan.
Andor is now, objectively, the best show not just from disney, not just from star wars, but from 2022 as a whole.
Cant wait to see how the execs ruin it in season 2
Ehh, their blacksmithing is really good bro. She made those micro missiles mando had with just blacksmithing stuff, not to mention all the tech in their helmets.
And i mean… cmon, how boring would it have been to kill the lizard in 3 seconds? Let them build some stress goddang
@Iron Bridge there's also something to be said of tradition and craftsmanship, especially for religious purposes. I still wear handmade boots, even though they can be mass produced.
22:58 The pirate leader is a Nikto, the others from left to right are Weequay, Nickto, Trandoshan, Klatooinian and the squid fellow is a Quarren. In the Return of the Jedi the figure was called a squid head. Sorry just had to nerd splurge.
I heard that baby yoda was not supposed to be in this series that CEO and probably KK wanted him in to protect her cannon and probably Sabotage his work again
You are correct Sir... Favreau thought He could drop him after two seasons as well, then got told No, because of merch. Baby Yoda is the only Star Wars stuff actually selling at the moment. The Figures and other toys aren't selling like they used too.
@@steelshanks1265maybe if you made a good show you wouldn’t have to rely on a cute gimmick
So it turned from "The Mandalorian" into "The Beskar Bucketface and Baby Yoda Show"
@@steffanyschwartz7801 I think the show was going to be good, because there are great elements there... I think they forced Baby Yoda into it, and then made Favreau keep him in the show, especially after Book of Boba Fett tanked...
@@johannesseyfried7933 Correct Sir.
Shouldn't a warrior cult in a galaxy with technology way more advanced than we do, have tactical mini nukes? They should have tactical nukes the size of a mini gumball. Just toss it in the croc's mouth, and explode it from the inside
Well, they got Thermal Detonators, they got Flamethrower, and all of their Jetpacks normally *should* have Missiles.
This was absolutely fantastic- well done mate
Andor may have started slower than the Mandalordian, but it did so to great effect.
I like your review but you left one point out ig-11 self-destructed which in my mind means that it would have destroyed his memory most likely first to make them unrecoverable and I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure he said this himself in the first season so how the F are they going to just bring him back because he's good for Merch ridiculous
"The 'healthy at any size' of the land", thank you *very* much.
"MERCH! Baby Yoda! Baby Yoda in a spin-aroundable chair! Baby Yoda holding a...what is that, a Skittles? Do we have that product placement deal nailed down? And WHAT is Voldemort doing in here dressed as Jack Sparrow?!""
New favorite series, no not the momolorian but disparu's review of it
The momolorian 😂😂
Well, hey, that pirate guy... good to see Sarris got more work...
I actually loved the first episode but if you’re gonna roast it, I’m still here for it lol.
Let’s GO Disparu
I liked it too. These youtubers are usually right but they ALL fall for the need to roast everything and talk shit on everything no matter what. I don't mind, it's how they earn a living, but people in comments are kinda irritating as they try to nitpick pointlessly
METAL DOUBTFIRE!!! I'd watch that. It sounds awesome.
Just imagine the scene where Grogu mis-behaves and Doubtfire shouts "Behave or I'll disintergrate your sister!!".
Then he kicks the little Turd like the football he, so obviously, is.
I hope this season does better than the Book of Boba Fett.
I've only recently discovered this channel... But your appearance on *Drinker: After Hours* didn't went unnoticed. Good video btw.
Hated this first epp. It’s a fetch quest within a fetch quest. It’s like the bad batch.
Lol literally “Go here talk to X” 3 times. And when he talks to the blacksmith at the beginning its essentially “Uhhh…what was I doing again? I forgot a.k.a the people who havent watched boba fett need to know”
13:45 -- Strange Serendipity, I was watching a video on another unrelated channel not even 2 hours ago, and one of the points the video raised was the subtle homoeroticism of "Nightmare on Elm Street 2". But yeah.
Honestly, fans should organize to make their own content. Literal fanfiction, at this point, would probably be automatically better than the industry standard.
Some have - the critical drinker is writing an action movie that's been crowd funded and is currently filming in Canada-stan.
Don't, since they'll just steal the fanfiction and say they came up with it themselves and give no credit
@@fulcrum2168 Nah, they'll just find a way to buy the new 'IP'.
@@meloelebi1996 Why buy when stealing is free
the only thing left out in the last dialogue was something like "you and your cult abandoned our planet yelling Make mandalore great again", but I suppose someone thought it a little bit too obvious
Ah, the merch is strong with this one.
Mando as a show kinda feels like a wish knock off of the OG Star Wars. You can pretty quickly tell it’s not as good but it’s got a lot of the veneer and some of the tone correct. However, mileage will definitely vary from person to person.
The whole episode was practically one long "previously on" with some really strange dialogue and a cluttered series of side quest acceptances
Mandalorian writers: how much baby yoda do you want Disney?
Disney: YES
8:34 if I'm not mistaken, EFAP literally said this at the end of their last episode on BOBF. If they remember, they're gonna laugh their asses off
The most frustrating thing about The Mandalorian is its creative potential. My friends and I always wanted to know and see more about them. The lore and the characters leave Disney with unlimited power to do good by the Star Wars franchise, but they throw it away. The Mandalorian shouldn't be a sitcom, it should be an Odyssey.
Weird how the same gun that blew a hole right through IG11's head in season 1, now just harmlessly deflects off it.
Oh, snap! S3 E1 of Mando is out already. Goes to show how little I care about SW now.
That MIB coffee scene… I just love it😄 19:28
I do wonder how much thought goes into space battles for shows like this. So space in my mind should use real life navy or air force for it's manoeuvres and traits of ships/aircraft. I feel it adds a glint of realism to make stuff more believable. For instance capital ships of different classes should different positives and negatives. Say the ship in this episode is a representation of an aircraft carrier then it's positives are access to a large number of fighters or bombers but the downside of that is a lack of firepower and being slow moving. What the scene should done is instead of having the capital ship use the threat of target lock and blowing up Mando with it's firepower. Change it instead to be that the pirate leader launches a dozen more ships in response to attempt to capture or kill him. It makes logically sense and you don't have to rely on the constant missing supposed target locked laser trope. Small change doesn't effect the plot in any way and you can still have your hero overcome or escape it. Of course the lasers from the fighters are going to miss but you can show diving, pitching, rolling from Mando to dodge them instead of the weapons being forced to miss.
You make great points, but seem to have forgotten that you are trying to apply logic to Disney SW... There is no place for that nonsense in contemporary entertainment!
@@danknfrshtv Its so sad how true this is :(
I don't know if the slow moving part would really apply in Space because there's no gravity, therefore weight has no bearing on speed because there is no weight in space.
@@williamcronshaw5262 Hmph well that's where we might just add things like that for the rule of cool or "magical" science fiction tech we don't understand. I guess speaking on pure logic you could argue rather than slower speed make it slower acceleration due to the engines being smaller and less powerful.
@@MajorSmurf Not sure why a bigger ship would have smaller and less powerful engines as that would make it pretty hard for them to clear the atmosphere of a planet where gravity actually applies.
Then again this is a show with a metal that is basically indestructible to blasters/ laser swords but can somehow be melted by a forge so whatever I guess.
My kid walking in walmart. Super slow when I'm trying to get stuff done.
I like season 1 overall and most of season 2 worked, even if it was very formulaic feeling, with the BoB episode being great. I feel like season 3 needed to be more character or story driven to really justify its existence. This feels like more of the same and it’s a fun distraction at best but nothing of substance.
13:06
I mean, my high school, you couldn't often tell the difference.
The show was sad when compared to what it could have been. A real come down from the last episode of Season 2. Having said that it wasn't terrible, which isn't saying much. But it's better than any other Disney offering in recent memory.
Season 1 was solid but I think I’m season 2 you could feel how much more of a balancing act if was for Favereau and Filoni. I hope season 3 is more story driven and less side quest based. This episode was very mid.
Its better than anything else on TV at the moment and that's nothing new. My 8 year old enjoyed it and that's enough for me!
False... Andor
@@thanatoast4389 How could I have forgotten that show. I guess it's due to the time in between seasons. Andor suffers from the problem with all sequels. We know how it ends. Other than that, I like it well enough. It is mediocre but so far hasn't had the silliness found in the Mandalorian or Book of Boba Fett and is much better than anything else they've spewed out.
@@thanatoast4389 Aye, that was good too but it didn’t keep the attention of my kids. Felt it was for a more mature audience. Mando continues to be that swashbuckling Saturday morning cartoony kinda show!
Hey, man. Hilarious as always. Really appreciate your closing too! It felt like you were giving it its due. Disney isn't so deserving, but I'm sure many of the crew on the project are. It's also a good look for you. Keep it up, sir
