I like how Grogu's fight with the Praetorian guards takes place in a weird empty room with nothing in it but a ring of lights for him to jump to. That room literally exists for the sole purpose of this fight and serves no other function.
It was a stage made specifically to include interactive elements for the player when he switches to the B character, like the clank parts in Rachet and Clank 3.
@@Edax_RoyeauxTo be fair: The Glove of Vader *did* apparently play a role in a....very weird EU Book, where a three eyed Moff tried to take control of the Empire's remnants by claiming that he was Palpatine's secret son. He even tried to use cybernetics to fake Force Lightning in an attempt to convince his fellow Imperials of his power-but that only led to him severely damaging his Arm. Vader's glove was supposed to help him because Triclops was convinced that the glove of such a powerful force user could give *him* access to the Force as well.

No mainline EFAP Episode tonight lads, we're gonna record some catchups and get other work sorted out. This episode, along with the supercut is having crazy issues getting past copyright (Hence the delay). No idea how long it will take to get the supercut out. In any case, the Boogie/Wings fight is happening at the same time tonight and we very well may have some coverage of it. Enjoy the episode! have a good night! we shall see yah in the next thing o/
I have no doubt this Mandalorian Finale coverage will be plenty blessing enough. I know you guys were always ahead of the masses on how bad The Mandalorian is, but in having the entire picture of the 3rd season, there is just something special in it's failure and how empty it is lol. Looking forward to watching when it premieres in a bit.
The thing that annoys me the most about the Armourer using her hammer and tongs in combat is that they seem to have misunderstood the context in which she initially used them. In Season 1, a bunch of troopers entered their hideout and the only things she had on hand to fight were her tools. It was still pretty silly, but more tenable given the situation. There is literally no logical reason as to why she would arm herself with anything less than a blaster. Filoni and Favreau must of thought it was super cool, but I can't think of anything more cringe in the entire show.
@@Сайтамен Missing my point entirely, when they defended Navarro from the pirates, none of them were wearing Beskar but she still went in there with her tools as her primary forms of offense. Besides, they didn't know that Gideon's troops were wearing Beskar until they got there, so it isn't like she had the foresight to anticipate that.
Grogu is on the same broken power level as Rey Palpatine; he has Force Healing, Force Choke and now Force Shield, to top it all off he still can’t even speak yet and for all we know next season he’ll master Force Storm and annihilate a whole fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers.
That's the thing, every once in a while it sounds like he's saying something in another language, but everyone ignores him. It's kinda fucked that for 3 seasons _no one_ put any effort into communicating with him until Karga gave him the mech suit.
Aren't the magic I-win darts not made of beskar? I guess they are technically ammunition so it's allowed then. Speaking of which they made no appearance this season.
@@SPTX. ya that’s also a thing, it’s also hilarious because it was sounded to have been a “emergency purpose” weapon but he constantly used it, even though Beskar is rare as shit (idgaf what this show says, it’s a extremely rare alloy fuck off Dave) so ig he FINALLY ran out
@@spiceboyog9083 it really bothers me they did fuck all with Bo’s character, I didn’t see her a good person but I found her interesting enough in CW, but even if I didn’t, it is NEVER brought up at the least, and most certainly never plays in as a factor to her connections with other Mandalorians
Some random Mandalorian is able to run out of the enemy base, get into orbit by his jet pack, fly into the Star Destroyer and run onto its bridge, order the other Mandalorians to return to the planet and they are able to go below the clouds, at the same time the Imperial fighters are just were able to reach orbit.
@@bcmm1880 look.....I didn't like or very much enjoyed season 3 of the Mandalorian. There's no need to use BS facts to make that point. The season sucks. Caleb Dume had 1 master...and was not even 12 when order 66 happened. In Rebels, he didn't think of himself as a capable teacher. He learned with Ezra. Grogu, on the other hand being a highly force sensitive being, was trained by multiple masters and is 50+ yrs old. He can't talk basic...but that doesn't mean he can't reason. Whatever happened between being rescued from the Temple attack and falling into Dr. Pershing's hands.....gave him amnesia or like Ahsoka said he had a lot of fear in him. Traumatized, for sure. As far as the force shield....it barely lasted a couple of seconds. (Crappy writing...I guess...not sure of the physics of fire from a downed imperial cruiser vs a fuel depot exploding in your face). Point is....show sucked....this Grogu vs fire point...not the strongest argument to use to make the point that the show sucked.
@@BitigoBlack he had been training to be more attune with the force and over time got way stronger so he’s def Jedi knight level b the time of his def lmao
Ahaha the armorer having a gun in the concept art was just a cherry on the cake. Talent was there, but the ocean of sludge can tarnish any shiny thing.
after several mando seasons and a season of the book of boby pete, i still maintain that the smartest person in the star wars universe was that random dog monster henchman that was smart enough to bite mando on his hand where his armour didn't protect him. he's done more damage to mando than the entire empire has. fuck cloning gideon, clone dog monster man.
I love how Gideon puts on his helmet, before going to find Mando. Then takes his helmet off to talk to Mando. Then puts it back on after being shot at by Mando. Jesus Christ…
I was actually in disbelief after they introduced the Praetorian Guards in the penultimate episode as some massive threat: "look how COOL and SACRY these guys are!" Only for Baby Yoda to trip them up and Mando to shoot them to death in like, 5 seconds. Also you've gotta love how Mando goes up to X-Wing pilot at the end asking to work for him, and X-Wing pilot doesn't ask Mando about the piece of beskar they found on the ship transporting Moff Gideon - I guess they just completely forgot they set up a subplot about the Mandalorians being framed for Gideon's capture🤷♂
I find it so hilarious that they had the Armorer use her hammer and tongs to fight an army of beskar wearing stormtroopers, while in the air no less. You just can't make this shit up. They must've thought it would've looked cool for some insane reason. Either that or they wrote it that way because it's what they define as a part of her character, which must be preserved no matter the cost. If she's in an action scene, she'll only use her beskar hammer and tongs to fight whomever. And it doesn't matter if her opponents have blasters/swords or whatever superior weaponry because she'll most certainly always win since anyone she confronts automatically becomes retarded before engaging her. Every time they manage to write dumber and dumber scenes like these episode after episode. It has to be the goal for Favreau/Filoni to write in the most asinine way and see how much they can get away with or something.
I would honestly like to think Favreau/Filoni recognized early on how shit their story was and said fuck it, make the serious parts of the story look as funny as possible.
It honestly would have been cool if the hammer was just bigger. If it was a giant beskar hammer that would have been awesome. But it's a tiny smith's hammer.
@@flamekaizer8476 Or just have it be like a mini gravity hammer or emit some kind of heat or electrical energy or hell be vibro-hammer mode for the purpose of fighting
I live in Omaha, and I can confirm Nebraska is a myth. As soon as you see that "entering Nebraska" sign you pop out on the other side and hear whispers for 10 seconds that "this is way"
“As Honorary Chairman of our Welcoming Committee it is my privilege to present this rubble from the last pirate attack and a hearty handshake to our new…” “I am IG 11 your new town Marshall.” “…Clanker.” All I could think about given how many episodes have involved droid discrimination.
Now I'm imagining IG-11 holding himself hostage, screaming “Don’t come any closer, or else this clanker’s gonna get it!” while The Armoror says “You better do what it says. It look just crazy enough to do it!”
Moff Gideon's base has to have one of the most awkward layouts I've ever seen. In a previous episode we have seen him walk by the corridor with shields to get to his control room. In this episode, Mando, after going through the shield corridor, he walks in to the Clone vat corridor before moving to the control room. Meaning that for some reason in between the shield corridor and the control room is a corridor full of Gideon clones... Why? To make matters worse, from the control room you can access one of the landing/ open platforms that is completely open to intruders thanks to the massive opening in the ceiling, perfectly demonstrated by Axe flying a capital ship through it. Also, what the hell was Gideon doing?? He said he would take care of Din when the trooper told him he'd escape. He leaves through the door that goes to the open platform and does nothing else the entire episode until Din shows up - at which point his clones are dead because to reach the control room you have to walk by the clone corridor. Gideon is upset at the fact that his clones are gone when he knew that Din would have to walk by them on his way to him - which i assume he was waiting for Din since he walks to the platform and just stays there... Star Wars, everybody!
It's kinda like the main control room for Springfields power plant, Burns and Smithers going to several doors with more and more insane secruity masures and then kicking an old dog from the control room because it has a flimsy wooden side door.
The Armorer using her hammer and tongs is cringe, but it takes away from just how silly Gideon's fight is: He planned this ambush, but he equips his men with the same gear as mandos, because? "gotta have evil mandos fight good mandos instead of effective ways to counter Mandos?" And what does he equip himself with? Tiny rockets that do no damage to mandos, a flamethrower that does no damage to mandos and a electric staff he only uses when Bokatan brings out the dark saber which he doesnt even need, because he literally defeats her by crushing the dark saber with his hand which also doesnt make sense; he does not have a robotic hand like Luke and Anakin, he is wearing a fabric glove connected to a robotic suit, he isnt wearing cybernetic gauntlets or anything, its literally just fabric gloves with a piece of armor on the top just like every other mando. P.S Minor nitpick: Why isnt Mando and Gideons capes catching on fire? In season 1 they make a deliberate design decision that whenever Mando used his jetpack, he'd wrap his cape around his neck to prevent it from catching fire- oh right, now they have beskar fabric, nevermind.
Wait, the Dirty-Mandos that stayed behind on Mandalore have food caches and farms? Then they have food! Wasn't one of the first things they did when they first approached Mando, Bo, and the other Mandalorians is to ask for food, like bums? *looks back at EFAP of S3Ep7* Holy shit, yes. The first thing they say is "Do you have food?"
Yes. They didn't want food. They were asking if Bo's Mandos had food because they had just eaten lunch and wanted to make sure that Bo, et al, wasn't hungry. They were being good hosts. Just kidding. Jon's an idiot.
He legit leaves no impact on any characters and they seriously thought Paz had a heroic sacrifice while being a one point above a background character xD
I'm sure dozens of other comments address this, but in the old canon, the Mandalorians do have motorized "crush gaunts" gloves that could be how Gideon crushes the darksaber, but yes it should have crushed Bo's hand. But the assumption that anyone involved in this show knew about anything from the old canon is dubious.
@@Lobsterwithinternet the worst part is it could have made sense, have the mandos at first have the mask like in the original canon then have it be lost in some way for at least hundreds of years and later the saber to arrive throughout the years the mask gets slowly forgotten and the darks saber gets more famous and it becomes the item that makes someone a leader. This would be some organic part of cultures loosing their traditions because of time but keeping parts of them. Then later you could have the mandos figure out that the saber wasn't the special thing and have them have a culture shock. Or have someone discover the mask and challenge Bo Katans rule over Mandalore with it. But I probably put much more thought into it then the writers did so I will probably stop here.
Why does every scene in this entire season feel like it was shot without having any idea what the scenes before and after it would be? Half the time it seems like they decided what characters were going to say after the fact and dubbed the lines in post.
Fun fact: in the Phantom Menace, there were a whole bunch of force field doors to regulate the power flow of the generator facility they were fighting in. In Mando, there are force field doors for no reason whatsoever.
I get what you're saying, but...how do doors that open and close "regulate power flow" for a generator? There was hot air or coolant or anything flowing through them.
@@mantha6912 I think the idea was that whenever there was the potential of an energy surge or something, they were like very sensitive blast doors. So they were opening and closing in case a power surge did happen to contain the damage. That’s what I vaguely remember reading.
remember, Moff Coldsteel didn’t have a spy or listening device, so that “ambush” makes no sense. also, if anyone got the upper hand, it was the Mandos since that guy was able to warn the other Mandos about the incoming ships. there is absolutely no tactical reason why the Mandos had to be on the defensive this hard and idiotically crash their ship into their own new home. that ground battle was literally random. the troopers literally just show up for no reason. the Imperials had no element of surprise, yet everyone who saw this thought they did. even some of the most fanboyish viewers said stuff like “is this gonna happen? is he gonna do this?”. I can’t wait for Darth Moff to show up next season, with his clones, fused/melted with the suit and fanboy about how he’s now like Darth Vader.
If the jetpacks can move as fast as the ships, and the jetpacks can't catch the dragon, then the dragon is faster than manadlorian spacecraft. Thats neat
Can we talk about the fact that the edgy saber can now slice through beskar armor, even though it literally couldn’t in the end of season 2? Bo Katan literally kills a beskar trooper with it by stabbing him through the chest plate- did they just forget that was a thing?
Except Darth Fring was able to beat Bow Katana in a 1v1 before destroying the darksaber so technically he was the last owner, making Darth Fring the real ruler of Mandalore…? I really don’t know how the rules work at this point tbh
Well if we want to get technical darth maul wasn't defeated by ezra and Sabine in rebels. He was then killed by obiwon who was killed by Vader defeated by Luke who was defeated by Palpatine and then was killed by Vader who then dies as a result. So this could be agured as a draw of a duel but according to star wars cannon Rey is the heir to both families making her the true ruler of mandalore
I think Bo-Katan being forced is the same reason Ahsoka is. A Filoni creation and Filoni jacks to his own creations hard in anything he's got a hand in. Has the Stench of a Fan fiction.
Actually rags''''''' said something like during Boba if I'm not mistaken. It was something like: "I'm sorry you like Bobba Fett but get some standards. What you like, is shit"
@@patrioticcat5768 I do have to hold myself back from outright telling people that. Don’t just fucking put Star Wars content on your screen to feed the hamster wheel that is your brain. Get him some fucking leafy greens and watch Andor!
With how they handled Boba Fring, I can't even imagine how badly they're going to mess up Thrawn. Thrawn is cold and calculating. He has no ego, no temper, and always manages to be 2 steps ahead at all times. There's no way in hell these clowns can write a story with a villain like that. I'm hoping to have my expectations subverted.
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that! It was on a capital ship while others escaped. Also, he wasn't even blocking the fire, he was holding a door closed that blocked the fire, which is even less impressive.
The fact that pre Disney mandos actually had a rite for adopting people as your kids or into your clan. The Gai bal. But given Disney mandos have no language, culture or consept of manda. Im not surprised they didnt include it
@@Сайтамен its a nice detail that i could appreciate. Like at least it wasn't in basic. But im pretty sure the resol'nare refers to the spoken language? But i might need to check that?
So either the writers forgot that the Darksaber girl is made of Beskar, or we’re supposed to believe that Gideon’s armor lets him crush Beskar with his hands. Keep in mind that a Rancor couldn’t bite through Beskar in BOBF, and a super destroyer droid stomp didn’t even scratch it.
Overall, I would say that Lucasfilms' Star Wars show The Mandolorians was very good. The blue Mandolorians are a fantastic addition to the Disney Fanatical Star Wars Universe, Bo Katana had a triumphant live-action debut, and there were so many awesome fight scenes with lasers and scary monsters!!! I can't wait to see Baby Yaddle learn the way of Mandolorians and use the dark saber to fight Darth Vader or maybe Snoke! Favreau has out-done himself. /s (incase that wasn't obvious)
Not to mention, it's an IG robot! The entire class of droid went rogue and is known for being crazy, evil and generally just horrible. In the old EU, one of the IG Droids tried to hack into the second Death Stat and take it over. I wouldn't want a Droid like that as a Sheriff.... 😬
I just love how Muff Giddy One would rather punch Mando repeatedly in the helmet, which would damage him but doesn't because plot armour, than take the helmet off him when he's staggered and end the fight in ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH
This whole thing felt like it was playing out like a video game. Evil villain waits in boss room for protagonist to trigger cutscene, enemies like the imperial fighter squadrons just vanish off screen, Storm commandos and mandalorians doing in the background fighting, Grogu healing spray, progressive shield doors to higher tier enemies with better equipment. The mandalorian was never really all that good in my opinion but this season just goes right off the cliff...
That's this whole season. I think that's a big reason why people started waking up. The writing has always been bad, but this entire season felt like a bunch of fetch quests, then they skipped straight to the boss battle. Not even a good current videogame. A bad early 00s videogame.
The forge lady using her hammer and tongs to fight enemies is ridiculous. It would be like a mercenary who is also an expert chef, using a spatula and frying pan when engaging in combat.
The circular wipe at the end of the episode was pure Looney Tunes. All that it needed was Porky Pig saying "That... that... that... that's all, folks!".
The thing about Filoni (if you believe the regular rumor mill), we thought he was loyal to Star Wars. Turns out, he's just loyal to one part of Star Wars- the itty bitty part of it he created. It was held over his head, and he jumped for it. Or so the rumor mill claims.
48:52 Even the Armorer back in season 1's finale (as well as used in the Season 3 trailer) says herself that by the creed Grogu is his to raise. "You are as its father... a clan of two." So the bs at the end doesn't make sense because the Armorer herself already saw Din Djarin as the father and the two are family.
Bobba Fring to captured Mando in the desert of Tatooine: “I will kill your Bo-Katan. I will kill your chungus Mando. I will kill your INFANT FOUNDLING”.
Yeah im pretty sure the show was saying that Gideon was able to crush the saber because he had robot mando armor, but this isnt conveyed well at all and the only evidence we get for his armor being robotic is that it makes generic robot sounds when he moves (sometimes)
Not to mention that yeah Bo’s hand is absolutely crushed into pieces after that but these kinds of plot holes are just par for the course at this point
Assuming Mandalore’s atmosphere is similar to the Earth’s, that jet pack would have to be capable of propelling a human at escape velocity, which is 11.2 km or 7 miles per second. Forget the capabilities of the jet pack, let’s discuss what traveling at that kind of speeds would do to a human body. I don’t think Beskar is gonna save you from that.
I enjoy how whenever there’s any discussion about Star Wars / all these Disney shows, there always needs to be the asterisk of “except for Andor”. A little glimmer of hope to hold onto
Which is sad because Andor is about a character who is FUCKING DEAD from a mediocre (which makes it automatically the best) star wars movie and its still a million times more compelling and well crafted than every star wars product Disney has shat out combined by a very VERY long mile.
"Can't have your big Mandoverse movie with the Mandalorian dead." Somehow, Din Djarin returned. And you already know people would counter with "Oh so you can accept Fett being cloned but not Djarin!?"
I can't believe I didn't have the thought on my first watch; that Gideon clone scene actually feels like its setting up an incoming fight with 30 nude, wet Gideons
Nope, apparently her Armor was made out of metal from Emperor Palpatine's personal Space Yacht. It had to be a very tiny Yacht, if there was only enough metal to make armor for a single person. Imagine what would have happened if Snoke's guards wore that stuff!
If you had told me about this show when I was a kid, I wouldn't have believed you. I would be fresh off Knights of the Old Republic, Republic Commando, Empire at War, Jedi Knight, and several of the best Star Wars books written. It was the golden age. A huge part of the universe which I had come to love was the Mandalorians. A civilization of warriors who were feared and respected throughout the galaxy, known for their iconic armor and arsenal of weapons, their prowess in battle and warfare, and their determination to fight the toughest fights imaginable with smiles on their faces. They lived for war, for conquest, for honor in battle against worthy opponents. They were more than cool, more than badass. They taught lessons of family, loyalty, honor, strength, endurance. Now they're children with jetpacks, worshipping helmets and forges and a sword. They chant "this is the way," they can't let you see their face, amd they pass around a talking stick. Their cringe has even been retconned into the past, making them "the old ways" so now THEY are the "real" Mandalorians. I fucking hate this. Kill me.
I'm almost certain the reason why all the fights look slow and clunky is because of that video of RedLetteMedia criticizing the prequel's choreographed fights, now everything has to be slow and "emotional" instead. Same can be said about the use of CGI, because "CGI bad, practical good" regardless of the situation.
One thing I noticed about a friend of mine who loves Darksaber and the Disney lore. I asked her if she saw the Mandalorian finale, just to see her reaction. She was extremely quiet and didn’t reply. You know, the amount of times this would have been solved by JUST KILLING SOMEONE IMMEDIATELY is insane. Excuse me, I need Tylenol for my new migraine. EDIT: I’m already calling it: Bo Katan just took over the series. She’s now going to be the main character and have Din come in for cameos with Grogu. I also just thought that in 6-7 ABY (unless they changed that in Disney canon, if so, fucking hell), now it’s CANON that clones were perfected. 6 - 7 ABY. When did Rise of Skywalker happen in canon? I’m (roughly) going to say 30 years later. And Snoke was a clone. To Papaltine. What. The. Fuck. And don’t tell me that the data was destroyed, even IF it was, do you really think even on a backwater planet the empire getting this advanced in technology would not have some back up? SECOND EDIT: I was so pissed off last night I totally forgot about the Clone Wars. Fucking hell.
The Diner of Dex, Episode Final, Season Destination The great Jettster civil war has begun. On the one side stands Dex and Klaud (who has no arms) and on the other, the evil Jar Jar Binks. Dex is captured by Jar Jar, but is rescued by Klaud, who distracts the Gungan Guards with a beautiful rendition of Swan Lake. Dex confronts Jar Jar who, it has turned out, has cloned himself many times and is trying to imbue the clones with the Jettster way in order to cook the most perfect meals, thus forcing Dex out of business. Dex struggles to fight him but, at the last minute, is saved by a ten year old Admiral Holdo, who kamikazes into Jar Jar, saving the day. Through the power of friendship, and coming to accept that Klaud has no arms, Dex wins the day but, alas, the sacred Beskar Spatula is destroyed for some reason. With Jar Jar seemingly beaten, Dex adopts Holdo as Holdo Jettster for reasons and the Holy Pizza Oven of the Jettster Planet is turned on at last. Tune in next month for 'The Paperwork of Plutt" about the administration of Jakku and how 1/4 portions are calculated.
I don’t often have time to watch an entire EFAP, but this video gave me life. So damn funny, and did me a lot of good to see people have the same kinds of reactions that I had when I watched this. Thank you!
That little frog scene at the end of this episode seems like a bookend to how Grogu was reintroduced in The Book of Boba Fett episode 6. I think you guys were right that those two Mando episodes in that show were at some point intended to be the start of this season.
Remember how Mando's space equivalent of a motorcycle was the perfect vehicle for him since he was subconsciously moving away from bounty hunting to raise a family? Now his ending is doing bounty hunting for the New Republic, but I suppose now he's going to have to take them all in cold (and bodyless) unless he's going to stuff them into the Grogu bubble on the back when he captures them because his spaceship is totally suited to his new lifestyle. I would think they would want to arrest empire remnants if possible for various reasons.
The Darksaber getting smooshed is pretty funny to me. I'm so checked out of Star Wars that I don't know or care if they said anything more than just showing it getting crushed, but like... it's a tool. It can be fixed. Unless the crystal got destroyed they'd even get to keep that nifty black blade. Hell, this same continuity showed a lightsaber getting torn in half and it got fixed with no ill effects, so as far as I can tell it's legitimately just a thing that happened for cheap "drama." This has become peak clown franchise.
Im imagining this catch-up section EFAP crew is doing for Drinker in the beginning, and Drinker just sittning there with his face in his hands as the crew keeps one upping each other in describing stupider and stupider events.
The Mandolorians leaving their capital ship they fought hard to capture behind to be destroyed and the capital ship having no shields for some reason infuriates me to no end!
I'm so glad that I never got into this garbage of a show, that being said I'm thoroughly enjoying EFAP's reaction to it because it's amusing. Plus the banter between MauLer and the gang are entertaining and witty. Keep up the good work lads and hail to the Toxic Brood.
So you're telling me their jetpacks are able to bring them to basically Space but they can't keep up with a Ugly dragon? Are you telling me they flew THAT FAR away and still came back walking? If the Armorer is so skilled with melee weapons why doens't she use a warhammer? You know, a Hammer made for fighting? The red guards, people who solely fight with close combat weapons, aren't given the super cool metall that basically makes them immune to distance attacks and projectiles? They show that Mando gets burned constantly and nothing happens. Why would Moff Gideon ''die''? It's not only obvious that he's coming back, he should also survive. I can't believe they don't even know how FAMILY NAMES work.
They shouldn't be cheering for any IG units. they're psychopaths. IG 88 (A B C and D Killed their creators then burned down the factory to prevent any weaknesses about them being learned. That Droid is gonna go nuts one day and kill everyone, and when they have their full memory they remember the only weakness they have is a fully charged blast to the head, (the way Mando took him out the first time) You need to be right in front of him, basically without luck nothing can stop him. (unless there is another IG unit coming after him (The four versions of 88 and 72 are still out there)
Moff Gideon: "The Darksaber is gone!" And I am f*cking GLAD about it! When they initially introduced it in Clone Wars, it was pretty cool: a unique looking Lightsaber that the Mandalorians stole long ago from the Jedi. It was a neat trophy. Now, it has become this mystical Excalibur-like weapon with weird rules about who can wield it and how.....and it has been shown so much and talked about so much that I am honestly sick of the damn thing. The Darksaber was just like Darth Maul: Really cool in small doses, but I get sick of them if they get shoved into everything. I'd rather see the Darksaber destroyed than have characters constantly talk about it.
26:00 So, this is amazing. This guy is flying into space with his jet pack. Maybe he has the super duper upgraded version, but space isn't just far (the upper atmosphere that he's saying that he's entering on Earth ranges from 85-600 km above surface), it's also going up, providing a hell of a lot more resistance than staying in low atmosphere and going sideways.
I like how Grogu's fight with the Praetorian guards takes place in a weird empty room with nothing in it but a ring of lights for him to jump to. That room literally exists for the sole purpose of this fight and serves no other function.
It was a stage made specifically to include interactive elements for the player when he switches to the B character, like the clank parts in Rachet and Clank 3.
Same for the shields section.
Literally what other reason is there for a bunch of dudes to just STAND there, 24/7, not moving?

This episode, along with the supercut is having crazy issues getting past copyright (Hence the delay). No idea how long it will take to get the supercut out.

this is the way......weeeeooooo

I have no doubt this Mandalorian Finale coverage will be plenty blessing enough. I know you guys were always ahead of the masses on how bad The Mandalorian is, but in having the entire picture of the 3rd season, there is just something special in it's failure and how empty it is lol. Looking forward to watching when it premieres in a bit.
I was waiting for this.
Honestly i can relate to the mythosaur. He just wants to chill in the water far away from all this bullshit.
This show is a high budget Saturday morning cartoon, complete with a reoccurring bad guy that has an endless supply of disposable troops and weapons.
"I'll get you next time Gadget....Next time!"
At least Gadget didn't present itself as serious.
Its truly an inspiring show that proves that you to can have your 2 page idea of a fanfic made into a reality if you sleep with the right people.

The thing that annoys me the most about the Armourer using her hammer and tongs in combat is that they seem to have misunderstood the context in which she initially used them. In Season 1, a bunch of troopers entered their hideout and the only things she had on hand to fight were her tools. It was still pretty silly, but more tenable given the situation. There is literally no logical reason as to why she would arm herself with anything less than a blaster. Filoni and Favreau must of thought it was super cool, but I can't think of anything more cringe in the entire show.
Stuff like that makes me think they really do use AI already.
The AI sees her fight with her tools so it assumes these are her weapons of choice.
Didn't she also charge that crocodile monster with a hammer?
@Marko Mihin yes… yes she did
I mean, blasters are useless against beskar stormtroopers anyway...
@@Сайтамен Missing my point entirely, when they defended Navarro from the pirates, none of them were wearing Beskar but she still went in there with her tools as her primary forms of offense. Besides, they didn't know that Gideon's troops were wearing Beskar until they got there, so it isn't like she had the foresight to anticipate that.
Can we appreciate that Grogu foiled Gideon's plans using his own cloning machines' self-destruction ? Like Perry the Platypus would do...
OMG YOU’RE RIGHT
BABY YODA IS PERRY THE PLATYPUS NOW

Moff Gideon: Ah Grogu the foundling. How completely unexpected and by unexpected I mean COMPLETELY EXPECTED.
Behold! My Force-Clone-inator!!
I like how the Gideon Clones are just in the hallway that leads to his office
He likes looking at himself.
Grogu is on the same broken power level as Rey Palpatine; he has Force Healing, Force Choke and now Force Shield, to top it all off he still can’t even speak yet and for all we know next season he’ll master Force Storm and annihilate a whole fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers.
He also has force plot armor. None of the Redmen could even touch him when he was moving so slowly.
@@youdarnweebsgetoffmylawn None of the redmen were given effective armor of weapons anyway. They may as well have been mall cops.
Fun fact: he did force heal about a week before TRoS came out, to prime people for Rey doing it
The shielding legit had me thinking of Jean Grey holding back an ENTIRE DAM BREAKING in that X-men movie.
That's the thing, every once in a while it sounds like he's saying something in another language, but everyone ignores him. It's kinda fucked that for 3 seasons _no one_ put any effort into communicating with him until Karga gave him the mech suit.
Bo Kataan: "Apes together strong!"
Gideon: "Um... what?"
Bo Kataan: "Oh, sorry! Wrong movie."
They might as well be apes, given how they handle giant apex predators or other enemies 😂, no offence to the Planet of the Apes - they're smart apes.
That’s an insult to Caesar! He was smarter than all these MandoBOREians combined!
So the Armorer is hypocritical af, had this whole talk about Beskar can’t be used as weapons, but constantly uses her BESKAR tools in combat
Clearly, those aren't weapons. They're tools of destruction.
Kinda funny, only the women are given the exception and no proof for anything such as the mythasore. It’s so stupid
Aren't the magic I-win darts not made of beskar? I guess they are technically ammunition so it's allowed then.
Speaking of which they made no appearance this season.
@@SPTX. ya that’s also a thing, it’s also hilarious because it was sounded to have been a “emergency purpose” weapon but he constantly used it, even though Beskar is rare as shit (idgaf what this show says, it’s a extremely rare alloy fuck off Dave) so ig he FINALLY ran out
@@spiceboyog9083 it really bothers me they did fuck all with Bo’s character, I didn’t see her a good person but I found her interesting enough in CW, but even if I didn’t, it is NEVER brought up at the least, and most certainly never plays in as a factor to her connections with other Mandalorians
Baby Yoda running around and kicking pretorian guards is like that opening scene of Kung Pow but it's supposed to be dramatic and emotional payoff.
More like Son of the Mask if the director wanted you to take it seriously.
Some random Mandalorian is able to run out of the enemy base, get into orbit by his jet pack, fly into the Star Destroyer and run onto its bridge, order the other Mandalorians to return to the planet and they are able to go below the clouds, at the same time the Imperial fighters are just were able to reach orbit.
we always run out of fuel before we can save the foundling
That's an Imperial cruiser. Not a destroyer.
Daily reminder kanan a traine djedi knight could barely push back an explosion for 45-60 seconds meanwhile baby yoda just chiling

Kanan was a jedi Padawan when Order 66 happened. Calm yer tits.
@@BitigoBlack well he reached the level of Jedi knight, plus regardless he still had much more training than Grogu
@@bcmm1880 look.....I didn't like or very much enjoyed season 3 of the Mandalorian. There's no need to use BS facts to make that point. The season sucks.
Caleb Dume had 1 master...and was not even 12 when order 66 happened. In Rebels, he didn't think of himself as a capable teacher. He learned with Ezra.
Grogu, on the other hand being a highly force sensitive being, was trained by multiple masters and is 50+ yrs old. He can't talk basic...but that doesn't mean he can't reason. Whatever happened between being rescued from the Temple attack and falling into Dr. Pershing's hands.....gave him amnesia or like Ahsoka said he had a lot of fear in him. Traumatized, for sure.
As far as the force shield....it barely lasted a couple of seconds. (Crappy writing...I guess...not sure of the physics of fire from a downed imperial cruiser vs a fuel depot exploding in your face).
Point is....show sucked....this Grogu vs fire point...not the strongest argument to use to make the point that the show sucked.
@@BitigoBlack he had been training to be more attune with the force and over time got way stronger so he’s def Jedi knight level b the time of his def lmao
Ahaha the armorer having a gun in the concept art was just a cherry on the cake. Talent was there, but the ocean of sludge can tarnish any shiny thing.
Beautiful metaphor
after several mando seasons and a season of the book of boby pete, i still maintain that the smartest person in the star wars universe was that random dog monster henchman that was smart enough to bite mando on his hand where his armour didn't protect him. he's done more damage to mando than the entire empire has. fuck cloning gideon, clone dog monster man.
I love how Gideon puts on his helmet, before going to find Mando. Then takes his helmet off to talk to Mando. Then puts it back on after being shot at by Mando. Jesus Christ…
I was actually in disbelief after they introduced the Praetorian Guards in the penultimate episode as some massive threat: "look how COOL and SACRY these guys are!" Only for Baby Yoda to trip them up and Mando to shoot them to death in like, 5 seconds. Also you've gotta love how Mando goes up to X-Wing pilot at the end asking to work for him, and X-Wing pilot doesn't ask Mando about the piece of beskar they found on the ship transporting Moff Gideon - I guess they just completely forgot they set up a subplot about the Mandalorians being framed for Gideon's capture🤷♂
I can't wait to add Gideon to the list of goombas that have died but somehow return (again).
“Somehow Goomba returned....”
"It must have been cloning. Secrets only the goombas knew"
I find it so hilarious that they had the Armorer use her hammer and tongs to fight an army of beskar wearing stormtroopers, while in the air no less. You just can't make this shit up. They must've thought it would've looked cool for some insane reason. Either that or they wrote it that way because it's what they define as a part of her character, which must be preserved no matter the cost. If she's in an action scene, she'll only use her beskar hammer and tongs to fight whomever. And it doesn't matter if her opponents have blasters/swords or whatever superior weaponry because she'll most certainly always win since anyone she confronts automatically becomes retarded before engaging her.
Every time they manage to write dumber and dumber scenes like these episode after episode. It has to be the goal for Favreau/Filoni to write in the most asinine way and see how much they can get away with or something.
I would honestly like to think Favreau/Filoni recognized early on how shit their story was and said fuck it, make the serious parts of the story look as funny as possible.
reading that, I'm so very happy I gave up on the Mandaflorian at the beginning of season 2
But remember, Beskar is not for weapons...no spears that stand up to lightsabers, we've got a hammer and tongs instead...for reasons.
It honestly would have been cool if the hammer was just bigger. If it was a giant beskar hammer that would have been awesome. But it's a tiny smith's hammer.
@@flamekaizer8476 Or just have it be like a mini gravity hammer or emit some kind of heat or electrical energy or hell be vibro-hammer mode for the purpose of fighting
The finale for a season of a show that has reached stupidity that can melt minds.

Around the time Din was being escorted by two stormtroopers and beat them.

My favorite part about Mandalorian season 3 was...
The part where I literally forgot that episode 5 happened.
It's getting that bad.
Sounds like a good time.
Was episode 5 the one where we tracked down a kid the whole time?
Or was that the Jack Black episode?
Same thing in my mind.
The only one I really remember was the one with the foundling-eating pterodactyl. How can anyone forget that episode? I've never WTF'd harder
I can’t really remember this whole season, being honest.

Moff Gideon's base has to have one of the most awkward layouts I've ever seen. In a previous episode we have seen him walk by the corridor with shields to get to his control room. In this episode, Mando, after going through the shield corridor, he walks in to the Clone vat corridor before moving to the control room. Meaning that for some reason in between the shield corridor and the control room is a corridor full of Gideon clones... Why? To make matters worse, from the control room you can access one of the landing/ open platforms that is completely open to intruders thanks to the massive opening in the ceiling, perfectly demonstrated by Axe flying a capital ship through it.
Also, what the hell was Gideon doing?? He said he would take care of Din when the trooper told him he'd escape. He leaves through the door that goes to the open platform and does nothing else the entire episode until Din shows up - at which point his clones are dead because to reach the control room you have to walk by the clone corridor. Gideon is upset at the fact that his clones are gone when he knew that Din would have to walk by them on his way to him - which i assume he was waiting for Din since he walks to the platform and just stays there... Star Wars, everybody!
I guess the shields are to secure the clone room...but you can enter it from other side if you have a jetpack...
It's kinda like the main control room for Springfields power plant, Burns and Smithers going to several doors with more and more insane secruity masures and then kicking an old dog from the control room because it has a flimsy wooden side door.
The gravity hammer impact over the blacksmith’s hits is peak editing. Fantastic work
I don't know what that's from.
@@archstanton9073 Halo 3 sound effects.
The Armorer using her hammer and tongs is cringe, but it takes away from just how silly Gideon's fight is:
He planned this ambush, but he equips his men with the same gear as mandos, because? "gotta have evil mandos fight good mandos instead of effective ways to counter Mandos?" And what does he equip himself with? Tiny rockets that do no damage to mandos, a flamethrower that does no damage to mandos and a electric staff he only uses when Bokatan brings out the dark saber which he doesnt even need, because he literally defeats her by crushing the dark saber with his hand which also doesnt make sense; he does not have a robotic hand like Luke and Anakin, he is wearing a fabric glove connected to a robotic suit, he isnt wearing cybernetic gauntlets or anything, its literally just fabric gloves with a piece of armor on the top just like every other mando.
P.S Minor nitpick: Why isnt Mando and Gideons capes catching on fire? In season 1 they make a deliberate design decision that whenever Mando used his jetpack, he'd wrap his cape around his neck to prevent it from catching fire- oh right, now they have beskar fabric, nevermind.
It is a robot-assisted gauntlet. It may look crap, but that's what it is.
I cant belive Darth Fring died the same way he did in Breaking Bad.
See, it's like poetry, it rhymes.
So he was building an underground nursing home on Mandalore...?
Diabolical.
The Empire's fried chicken franchise will fund the Emperor's Exegol fleet.
You're assuming he died. Based on previous Star Wars, he might reappear when they run out of villains.
Next season "Somehow Moth Giddy boy returned"
@@RossTheNinja What do you mean "might"? They will
Wait, the Dirty-Mandos that stayed behind on Mandalore have food caches and farms? Then they have food! Wasn't one of the first things they did when they first approached Mando, Bo, and the other Mandalorians is to ask for food, like bums? *looks back at EFAP of S3Ep7* Holy shit, yes. The first thing they say is "Do you have food?"
Never realized that. Another brain-fart for Lucasfilm
I mean they gotta have some food to survive here for 8 years...
Yes. They didn't want food. They were asking if Bo's Mandos had food because they had just eaten lunch and wanted to make sure that Bo, et al, wasn't hungry. They were being good hosts.
Just kidding. Jon's an idiot.
love how he says "who" at 16:13 cuz nobody in the show even acknowledges Paz's death, hell is own son didn't care
He legit leaves no impact on any characters and they seriously thought Paz had a heroic sacrifice while being a one point above a background character xD
27:12 They are gonna take his helmet off and the guy in charge is going to say: "You idiots! You've captured his stunt double!"
I'm sure dozens of other comments address this, but in the old canon, the Mandalorians do have motorized "crush gaunts" gloves that could be how Gideon crushes the darksaber, but yes it should have crushed Bo's hand. But the assumption that anyone involved in this show knew about anything from the old canon is dubious.
You should have figured that out when they retconned Mandalorian history to justify the Darksaber.
@@Lobsterwithinternet the worst part is it could have made sense, have the mandos at first have the mask like in the original canon then have it be lost in some way for at least hundreds of years and later the saber to arrive throughout the years the mask gets slowly forgotten and the darks saber gets more famous and it becomes the item that makes someone a leader. This would be some organic part of cultures loosing their traditions because of time but keeping parts of them.
Then later you could have the mandos figure out that the saber wasn't the special thing and have them have a culture shock. Or have someone discover the mask and challenge Bo Katans rule over Mandalore with it.
But I probably put much more thought into it then the writers did so I will probably stop here.
I mean they always pull stuff from it, so they know.
Why does every scene in this entire season feel like it was shot without having any idea what the scenes before and after it would be? Half the time it seems like they decided what characters were going to say after the fact and dubbed the lines in post.
With them insisting on keeping the helmets on they very well might be relying on ADR to give the plot any resemblance of coherent structure.
They should've had Lizzo be the giant monster attacking the Mandos on the secret planet
They could have just asked MundaneMatt to do it.
Wait I already thought it was?
Look out! Thar she blows! The Land Whale!
Fun fact: in the Phantom Menace, there were a whole bunch of force field doors to regulate the power flow of the generator facility they were fighting in. In Mando, there are force field doors for no reason whatsoever.
These doors are here to separate Larry and Jimmy, the storm trooper guards. They have a different.
I get what you're saying, but...how do doors that open and close "regulate power flow" for a generator? There was hot air or coolant or anything flowing through them.
@@mantha6912 I think the idea was that whenever there was the potential of an energy surge or something, they were like very sensitive blast doors. So they were opening and closing in case a power surge did happen to contain the damage. That’s what I vaguely remember reading.
remember, Moff Coldsteel didn’t have a spy or listening device, so that “ambush” makes no sense. also, if anyone got the upper hand, it was the Mandos since that guy was able to warn the other Mandos about the incoming ships. there is absolutely no tactical reason why the Mandos had to be on the defensive this hard and idiotically crash their ship into their own new home. that ground battle was literally random. the troopers literally just show up for no reason. the Imperials had no element of surprise, yet everyone who saw this thought they did. even some of the most fanboyish viewers said stuff like “is this gonna happen? is he gonna do this?”. I can’t wait for Darth Moff to show up next season, with his clones, fused/melted with the suit and fanboy about how he’s now like Darth Vader.
just consume product and get excited for next product.
he's gonna have to use a breathing mask that distorts his voice into something deeper..... because Filoni is just that original....
@@petriew2018 the breathing mask also gives him the force or something.
@@davidmendez3899 And at that point, Vader comes back from the dead just to hand him a C&D so he stops ripping him off.
If the jetpacks can move as fast as the ships, and the jetpacks can't catch the dragon, then the dragon is faster than manadlorian spacecraft.
Thats neat
That baby yoda vs Pretorian Guard was the funniest thing I have ever seen
Can we talk about the fact that the edgy saber can now slice through beskar armor, even though it literally couldn’t in the end of season 2? Bo Katan literally kills a beskar trooper with it by stabbing him through the chest plate- did they just forget that was a thing?
Through both back and chest plates and jetpack.
I'm giggling like an idiot, thinking of blacksmith lady using a gun thatshoots tiny hammers. 😂
She should've been like Hammer bros from Mario, just rapidly throwing small hammers at every enemy 😂

So, Axle Wolf is Mandalore now, right? Darth Fring beat Bo Katan, again, and broke the saber and then Axle Wolf's orbitable kamakize took him out.
Except Darth Fring was able to beat Bow Katana in a 1v1 before destroying the darksaber so technically he was the last owner, making Darth Fring the real ruler of Mandalore…? I really don’t know how the rules work at this point tbh
Who?
@@mickeymount7902 axe killed moff giddy with the cruiser. Axe is mandalore now
Well if we want to get technical darth maul wasn't defeated by ezra and Sabine in rebels. He was then killed by obiwon who was killed by Vader defeated by Luke who was defeated by Palpatine and then was killed by Vader who then dies as a result. So this could be agured as a draw of a duel but according to star wars cannon Rey is the heir to both families making her the true ruler of mandalore
axle wolf sounds like a made up rock star name lol

With how they handled Boba Fring, I can't even imagine how badly they're going to mess up Thrawn. Thrawn is cold and calculating. He has no ego, no temper, and always manages to be 2 steps ahead at all times. There's no way in hell these clowns can write a story with a villain like that.

Anakin did what Grogu did in deflecting fire and was critically injured for at least three days (clone wars season 1)
You are wrong it was one second for anakin 30 minutes for yoda.
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that! It was on a capital ship while others escaped. Also, he wasn't even blocking the fire, he was holding a door closed that blocked the fire, which is even less impressive.
The fact that pre Disney mandos actually had a rite for adopting people as your kids or into your clan. The Gai bal. But given Disney mandos have no language, culture or consept of manda. Im not surprised they didnt include it

So either the writers forgot that the Darksaber girl is made of Beskar, or we’re supposed to believe that Gideon’s armor lets him crush Beskar with his hands.
Keep in mind that a Rancor couldn’t bite through Beskar in BOBF, and a super destroyer droid stomp didn’t even scratch it.
Overall, I would say that Lucasfilms' Star Wars show The Mandolorians was very good. The blue Mandolorians are a fantastic addition to the Disney Fanatical Star Wars Universe, Bo Katana had a triumphant live-action debut, and there were so many awesome fight scenes with lasers and scary monsters!!! I can't wait to see Baby Yaddle learn the way of Mandolorians and use the dark saber to fight Darth Vader or maybe Snoke! Favreau has out-done himself.

I just love how Muff Giddy One would rather punch Mando repeatedly in the helmet, which would damage him but doesn't because plot armour, than take the helmet off him when he's staggered and end the fight in ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH
This whole thing felt like it was playing out like a video game.
Evil villain waits in boss room for protagonist to trigger cutscene, enemies like the imperial fighter squadrons just vanish off screen, Storm commandos and mandalorians doing in the background fighting, Grogu healing spray, progressive shield doors to higher tier enemies with better equipment. The mandalorian was never really all that good in my opinion but this season just goes right off the cliff...
That's this whole season. I think that's a big reason why people started waking up. The writing has always been bad, but this entire season felt like a bunch of fetch quests, then they skipped straight to the boss battle. Not even a good current videogame. A bad early 00s videogame.
"You are now, Grogu Skywalker" cuz why not :0
The forge lady using her hammer and tongs to fight enemies is ridiculous. It would be like a mercenary who is also an expert chef, using a spatula and frying pan when engaging in combat.
If they had at least given her a Warhammer or something like that.

"He's officially a supporting player in his own show."

The circular wipe at the end of the episode was pure Looney Tunes. All that it needed was Porky Pig saying "That... that... that... that's all, folks!".
"Mandalorians are weak without their trinkets"
Copies All the mandalorian trinkets to be able to fight them.
46:49 they didn’t even time the cgi correctly, he just lifts his arms up and starts screaming before anything even happens to him.
omfg, when they deactivated the shield and Mando punched a dude, it sounded like an M1 Garand ping.
Indiana Jones' pistol sounds like a Howitzer but people seem to like those movies well enough.
The thing about Filoni (if you believe the regular rumor mill),
we thought he was loyal to Star Wars.
Turns out, he's just loyal to one part of Star Wars- the itty bitty part of it he created.
It was held over his head, and he jumped for it.
Or so the rumor mill claims.
I mean he’s not exactly loyal to the parts of Star Wars he created.. he keeps retconning things from his own shows
48:52 Even the Armorer back in season 1's finale (as well as used in the Season 3 trailer) says herself that by the creed Grogu is his to raise. "You are as its father... a clan of two."
So the bs at the end doesn't make sense because the Armorer herself already saw Din Djarin as the father and the two are family.
"This is Bo Katana! She stole my show!"
Bobba Fring to captured Mando in the desert of Tatooine:
“I will kill your Bo-Katan. I will kill your chungus Mando. I will kill your INFANT FOUNDLING”.
Yeah im pretty sure the show was saying that Gideon was able to crush the saber because he had robot mando armor, but this isnt conveyed well at all and the only evidence we get for his armor being robotic is that it makes generic robot sounds when he moves (sometimes)
Not to mention that yeah Bo’s hand is absolutely crushed into pieces after that but these kinds of plot holes are just par for the course at this point
Assuming Mandalore’s atmosphere is similar to the Earth’s, that jet pack would have to be capable of propelling a human at escape velocity, which is 11.2 km or 7 miles per second. Forget the capabilities of the jet pack, let’s discuss what traveling at that kind of speeds would do to a human body. I don’t think Beskar is gonna save you from that.
I enjoy how whenever there’s any discussion about Star Wars / all these Disney shows, there always needs to be the asterisk of “except for Andor”. A little glimmer of hope to hold onto
Which is sad because Andor is about a character who is FUCKING DEAD from a mediocre (which makes it automatically the best) star wars movie and its still a million times more compelling and well crafted than every star wars product Disney has shat out combined by a very VERY long mile.
TLDR: Mando becomes the Thane of Navarro, obtains Breezehome, mods in a robot companion
50:28 - Passing the torch... literally... passing the literal f--king torch.
"Can't have your big Mandoverse movie with the Mandalorian dead."

And you already know people would counter with "Oh so you can accept Fett being cloned but not Djarin!?"
I can't believe I didn't have the thought on my first watch; that Gideon clone scene actually feels like its setting up an incoming fight with 30 nude, wet Gideons
Everyone forgot about Captain Phasma. She had shiny armor and blasters did bounce off. Sho SHE had bescar armor.
Nope, apparently her Armor was made out of metal from Emperor Palpatine's personal Space Yacht.
It had to be a very tiny Yacht, if there was only enough metal to make armor for a single person.
Imagine what would have happened if Snoke's guards wore that stuff!
@@johannesseyfried7933 The fuck was his yacht made of then?
@@user-ue2lg1yl4w I don't know. There ARE blaster resistent metals in Star Wars, like Cortosis or the famous mandalorian iron.
If you had told me about this show when I was a kid, I wouldn't have believed you. I would be fresh off Knights of the Old Republic, Republic Commando, Empire at War, Jedi Knight, and several of the best Star Wars books written. It was the golden age.
A huge part of the universe which I had come to love was the Mandalorians. A civilization of warriors who were feared and respected throughout the galaxy, known for their iconic armor and arsenal of weapons, their prowess in battle and warfare, and their determination to fight the toughest fights imaginable with smiles on their faces. They lived for war, for conquest, for honor in battle against worthy opponents. They were more than cool, more than badass. They taught lessons of family, loyalty, honor, strength, endurance.
Now they're children with jetpacks, worshipping helmets and forges and a sword. They chant "this is the way," they can't let you see their face, amd they pass around a talking stick. Their cringe has even been retconned into the past, making them "the old ways" so now THEY are the "real" Mandalorians.
I fucking hate this. Kill me.
I'm almost certain the reason why all the fights look slow and clunky is because of that video of RedLetteMedia criticizing the prequel's choreographed fights, now everything has to be slow and "emotional" instead. Same can be said about the use of CGI, because "CGI bad, practical good" regardless of the situation.
One thing I noticed about a friend of mine who loves Darksaber and the Disney lore.
I asked her if she saw the Mandalorian finale, just to see her reaction. She was extremely quiet and didn’t reply.
You know, the amount of times this would have been solved by JUST KILLING SOMEONE IMMEDIATELY is insane.
Excuse me, I need Tylenol for my new migraine.
EDIT: I’m already calling it: Bo Katan just took over the series. She’s now going to be the main character and have Din come in for cameos with Grogu.
I also just thought that in 6-7 ABY (unless they changed that in Disney canon, if so, fucking hell), now it’s CANON that clones were perfected.
6 - 7 ABY. When did Rise of Skywalker happen in canon? I’m (roughly) going to say 30 years later.
And Snoke was a clone. To Papaltine.
What. The. Fuck.
And don’t tell me that the data was destroyed, even IF it was, do you really think even on a backwater planet the empire getting this advanced in technology would not have some back up?
SECOND EDIT: I was so pissed off last night I totally forgot about the Clone Wars.
Fucking hell.
The Diner of Dex, Episode Final, Season Destination
The great Jettster civil war has begun. On the one side stands Dex and Klaud (who has no arms) and on the other, the evil Jar Jar Binks. Dex is captured by Jar Jar, but is rescued by Klaud, who distracts the Gungan Guards with a beautiful rendition of Swan Lake.
Dex confronts Jar Jar who, it has turned out, has cloned himself many times and is trying to imbue the clones with the Jettster way in order to cook the most perfect meals, thus forcing Dex out of business. Dex struggles to fight him but, at the last minute, is saved by a ten year old Admiral Holdo, who kamikazes into Jar Jar, saving the day. Through the power of friendship, and coming to accept that Klaud has no arms, Dex wins the day but, alas, the sacred Beskar Spatula is destroyed for some reason.
With Jar Jar seemingly beaten, Dex adopts Holdo as Holdo Jettster for reasons and the Holy Pizza Oven of the Jettster Planet is turned on at last.
Tune in next month for 'The Paperwork of Plutt" about the administration of Jakku and how 1/4 portions are calculated.
I remember this... Am I living in a deja vu?
@@KernwadiNo, I remember this as well.
Maybe we are both living in a deja vu?
I thought I was the only one who remembered this!
It seems we are all remembering this.
Intriguing...
I don’t often have time to watch an entire EFAP, but this video gave me life. So damn funny, and did me a lot of good to see people have the same kinds of reactions that I had when I watched this. Thank you!
Such a shame no one seemed to hear Rags’’’s “metal gear flaccid” joke because that shit was absolute gold
That little frog scene at the end of this episode seems like a bookend to how Grogu was reintroduced in The Book of Boba Fett episode 6. I think you guys were right that those two Mando episodes in that show were at some point intended to be the start of this season.
Remember how Mando's space equivalent of a motorcycle was the perfect vehicle for him since he was subconsciously moving away from bounty hunting to raise a family? Now his ending is doing bounty hunting for the New Republic, but I suppose now he's going to have to take them all in cold (and bodyless) unless he's going to stuff them into the Grogu bubble on the back when he captures them because his spaceship is totally suited to his new lifestyle. I would think they would want to arrest empire remnants if possible for various reasons.
Richard's gonna give Boogie the look here, look listen wombo combo
Yes.
I guess he must have, since he won.
The Darksaber getting smooshed is pretty funny to me. I'm so checked out of Star Wars that I don't know or care if they said anything more than just showing it getting crushed, but like... it's a tool. It can be fixed. Unless the crystal got destroyed they'd even get to keep that nifty black blade. Hell, this same continuity showed a lightsaber getting torn in half and it got fixed with no ill effects, so as far as I can tell it's legitimately just a thing that happened for cheap "drama." This has become peak clown franchise.
I believe we already reached peak clownage with the Star Wars Sequels, but this doesn't help.
Im imagining this catch-up section EFAP crew is doing for Drinker in the beginning, and Drinker just sittning there with his face in his hands as the crew keeps one upping each other in describing stupider and stupider events.
The Mandolorians leaving their capital ship they fought hard to capture behind to be destroyed and the capital ship having no shields for some reason infuriates me to no end!
This show woulda been 100% better if instead of "yes" and "no" the Baby Yoda mech soundboard had "bruh" and that super reverb fart sound effect.
I'm so glad that I never got into this garbage of a show, that being said I'm thoroughly enjoying EFAP's reaction to it because it's amusing. Plus the banter between MauLer and the gang are entertaining and witty. Keep up the good work lads and hail to the Toxic Brood.
So you're telling me their jetpacks are able to bring them to basically Space but they can't keep up with a Ugly dragon? Are you telling me they flew THAT FAR away and still came back walking?
If the Armorer is so skilled with melee weapons why doens't she use a warhammer? You know, a Hammer made for fighting?
The red guards, people who solely fight with close combat weapons, aren't given the super cool metall that basically makes them immune to distance attacks and projectiles?
They show that Mando gets burned constantly and nothing happens. Why would Moff Gideon ''die''? It's not only obvious that he's coming back, he should also survive.
I can't believe they don't even know how FAMILY NAMES work.
They shouldn't be cheering for any IG units. they're psychopaths. IG 88 (A B C and D Killed their creators then burned down the factory to prevent any weaknesses about them being learned.
That Droid is gonna go nuts one day and kill everyone, and when they have their full memory they remember the only weakness they have is a fully charged blast to the head, (the way Mando took him out the first time) You need to be right in front of him, basically without luck nothing can stop him. (unless there is another IG unit coming after him (The four versions of 88 and 72 are still out there)
The freaking Halo sound effects on the blacksmith ambush scene 😂 "unfriggenbelievable" just like this show
Moff Gideon: "The Darksaber is gone!"
And I am f*cking GLAD about it!
When they initially introduced it in Clone Wars, it was pretty cool: a unique looking Lightsaber that the Mandalorians stole long ago from the Jedi.
It was a neat trophy.
Now, it has become this mystical Excalibur-like weapon with weird rules about who can wield it and how.....and it has been shown so much and talked about so much that I am honestly sick of the damn thing.
The Darksaber was just like Darth Maul:
Really cool in small doses, but I get sick of them if they get shoved into everything.
I'd rather see the Darksaber destroyed than have characters constantly talk about it.
It hasn’t been that long and I have already forgotten most of the episode. Doesn’t usually happen when I care about the craft.
26:00 So, this is amazing. This guy is flying into space with his jet pack. Maybe he has the super duper upgraded version, but space isn't just far (the upper atmosphere that he's saying that he's entering on Earth ranges from 85-600 km above surface), it's also going up, providing a hell of a lot more resistance than staying in low atmosphere and going sideways.
*sigh*
Somehow, Moff Gideon has returned.
The Metal Rags tandem “wee!” Is everything.
The problem with CG Yoda is that any other time we see him he needs assistance to walk or otherwise move about, yet here he is doing loop de loops.
Because he lets the Force flow through him at the moment.
