@@bradyanselmi And you can see it in her face how touched she is that someone actually understands and respects the significance of a Mandalorian dying to defend Mandalore.
So many things in this episodes, but let's not forget that 46 years after he was passed over because of a bad motivator, R5 *finally* has an adventure.
And he really rather not, if he served in the Rebellion it was before A New Hope, like C1-10P he might have served in the GAR in a Y-wing. He seems to be much happier haveing a boring existence with no adventures or chance of being destroyed.
"Boonta Eve, that's a new one!" *cries in The Phantom Menace* I love how the general audience's takeaway from all of this is how everyone is so proud of Grogu for being such a grown up
I'm honestly amazed how nobody gets the Boonta Eve reference. I think I saw two reaction groups who noticed the reference, and that was Kyle Katarn and Blind Wave.
Din is faith, Bo Katan is the warrior princess, Grogu is the Mandalorian Jedi who can commune with creatures and he will tame and ride the Mythosaur. To restore Mandalore, I think they need all 3 of them.
Yep. But I think Din will ride the Mythosaur with his son’s help in taming it. Din rode the blurrg and the rancor (briefly) so that might have been foreshadowing. Bo Katan, wielding the Dark Saber, will be the ruler and will name Grogu as her heir apparent. Also thought about Boba being good with animals, so maybe he’ll be called in to help out with the Mythosaur? Go Team Mandalore!
Probably one of my favorite Mandalorian-episodes, so much story, charactergrowth and action in one episode. Din paying his respect to Bo-Katans' father with that "This is the Way" was just the icing on the cake.
every reaction I watched that was like "we're already at the mines?!" I just keep hearing you two saying "they're doing the thing", y'all didn't disappoint 😂
Bo's ship is a Gauntlet. The wings swing up to assist in quick landings to drop off troops. It features a rear hatch that troops can also fly out from to quickly deploy. It is good armament and is very maneuverable on landings so it can drop troops and zip out to give air cover immediately. A great ship for Mandalorians.
Did you notice all the scenes from the trailers are in the first episodes? We’re going to be left in the dark for most of the season. I really don’t know what to expect but I think the Mythosaur is just what they both Din and Bo needed to understand that a new age for Mandalore is coming. I’m so pumped
Boonta Eve is connected directly to the Pod Race that Anakin won in the Phantom Menace. You even see two speeders racing around the city in the opening shot.
I wouldn't say she dislikes him. she's just bitter because everyone left and she's now the Leader of no one. He got the dark saber fair and square according to their traditions.
Probably the most nuanced character in all of Star Wars. When we first met her she was a terrorist burning down an innocent village and trying to violently overthrow her sister’s rule. And now she’s…whatever she is right now. I’m so fascinated by her.
I dont think she necessarily dislikes him. She just doesnt like his beliefs and what he stands for. I think she has her own motives for leading him there but I think her helping Din twice without hesitation, shows there is some complexity there. She is a good one, but she has a lot to figure out. I think she started feeling something when she heard Din reciting the creed and then seeing the mythosaur is going to do a lot to change her perspective... Whether its for the good or bad for Din, we will see.
She clearly likes him a lot, or at least respects him a great deal. It's just that she hates that he's part of this zealotous cult that to her represents the Mandalorian culture's worst traits.
4:55 I was thinking about that too and it wasn’t until watching this that I realized he probably didn’t want to leave Grogu when he went to the mines, and he doesn’t have a pressurized helmet for Grogu (yet 👀), so the atmosphere had to be safe for both of them
there were so many thing in this episode that truly just made me fall in love with this series it truly was amazingly done. from Bo pushing grogu back to din saying "This is the way" to bo and to seeing the Mythosaur. I truly am excited for the episode 😭🤌🏼
I'm so excited by this, I thought Bo was going to be the antagonist. Now we could see Bo's journey and their friendship growth and the rise of the Mandalorians. Love it.
Imagine short circuiting yourself to avoid being sold to a moisture farmer, which would have led to it being part of the rebellion, just to get sold to a Mandalorian years later
Looks to me like it's Bo'Katan who got redeemed the most in that episode. She could swing the sword while Din could not, she even went swimming in the pool to save drowning Din and was the one who saw the dragon. This is the way.
You know if Din tames that beast he will be considered the True Mandalore by the True Mandalorians that Jango Fett fought alongside against the Death Watch. Meaning he’d be the closest thing to uniting all of Mandalore given he now has the Dark Saber, a symbol of the Death Watch, and may have a Mythisour!
She trained with it, Din can learn to use it too. I wonder if she will help him now did you see how she looked when din was redoing his oath to the code it looked like admiration to me. I think she realized he is like her father… then the mythasour… omg… not only did they do the thing they kicked the thing in a bang.
I have a theory. I think perhaps the reason Din doesn't wield the darksaber well is because he didn't consider himself a true mandolorian, either consciously or unconsciously, after he removed his helmet. Now that he has been bathed in the Living Waters, I wonder if that mental block will be eliminated and Din will start being able to use the saber more effectively.
The way my heart jumped out of my chest, did a little dance, featured itself on Triple D, built the Winterhold College, said hello to a stargate, entered itself through itself on Mac and cheese and overpalpitated when I saw Gerald... THE MYTHOSAUR!!!!!
10:26 - I can think of three benefits of the wings tilting upward. They act as air breaks, they orientate the thrusters, and they reduce surface area (and therefore air resistance) when ascending/descending.
I watch a few reaction channels, but I am so so so glad that you guys reacted to that the same way that I did! Been patiently waiting for your upload, because I knew that you would! Love that YOUR reaction gave ME goosebumps!
we thought about a side quest : pieces for droid..." Booooorin'" : like a message straight to the audience : you expected that, nah we are going to the point directly because we heard you about the previous seasons. I think it's exactly what Favereau wanted to send to us : a message that this one will be with less filers
10:33 The wings on a Kom'rk-class Fighter being able to swivel upward like that allow for it to preform vertical take-offs/landings more efficiently (similar to the V-22 Osprey)
The wings folding up would increase air resistance allowing for a quicker landing in atmosphere, and it repositions the primary thrusters so that they can be used for vertical takeoff or landing.
There's been a lot of discussion about things Bo-Katan might do to regain the will of the people as a leader, rather than just getting the Darksaber back, and managing to follow Mandalore's footsteps by taming a Mythosaur would pretty much trump everything. Wonder if that's what we'll see.
Can I Just say the scene where Grogu gets to the ship to find Bo reminds me of the epiosde when Anikin and Mace are trapped in CloneWars and Anikin sends R2 to get help from the temple. Same music , same energy.
Bo-Katan and Sabine can wield the Dark Saber. Sabine gifted the saber to Bo-Katan. I think Din needs to learn how to let go and feel. Sabine and Bo-Katan had to learn that. I wonder who can teach him to feel. As for the lore, who can lead them? There are some Mandalorians who do not care for Bo-Katan. Then there is Din. He doesn't want to lead. He doesn't want the power of that position. However, you know what they say, " Those who do not seek power are the ones to lead." Then there are Mandalorians who want the saber so they can get the power. This has really got me asking more questions. I wonder if Sabine will make an appearance. She has to. As for Boonta Eve, that's a celebration for a Hut named Boonta Hestlic who ascended to Godhood. Yep, they got that kind of thing in Star Wars. Anyway, they get drunk and have awesome pod races...you know....Anikan and fireworks.
Doing the thing indeed! I, like most people I'm assuming, thought we weren't going to get to the mines until near the end of the aseason but nope, second episode in oh and here's a Mythosaur as well! I'm so excited for the rest of the season cause I genuinely have no idea what's going to happen now.
I need to start takingthis season more seriously. Not that I wasn’t before, but I’m starting to realize what the creators were saying with the scope being much bigger this season. I mean if we got this much in just two episodes, imagine what the finale will be like? I’m not ready.
Mando did not handle the dark saber because he was conflicted. He was hoping that bathing in the waters would resolve that, and then he would also better use the dark saber.
He was also torn on the fact his cult is different than Bo, and how other mandos exist and take off the helmet, he’s bathing so he’s no longer an exile and can fully raise Grogu as a Mando as he believes he can’t while being exiled whether or not he joins how Bo is and freely takes it off, I believe he’s too proud to “switch” “cults” while currently exiled from his
That spider droid riding creepy alien sounded a heck of a lot like a geonosian. It was super-creepy too. I'm still getting major vibes that some jedi is going to come help Grogu make a Grogu-sized lightsabre and the kyber (or whatever) crystal that calls to him is the one inside the darksaber. I was talking to my partner about it earlier and she said, "Well, he doesn't need a Grogu-sized sabre, he can just pick up the one Din uses with The Force." Mind blown
If I had to take a wild guess, Jay, I'd say that the wings go up like that during the landing process to probably just help slow down the ship by reducing its aerodynamics, thus making it land easier/smoother. It probably also just adds some style points too though. 😂
Something to consider; it was Bo that saw the mythasaur, not Din. This might be a way to redeem her character as the rightful ruler of Mandalore without having to possess the dark saber. I interpret the scene where she is staring at the water and a possible moment of revelation, finally recognizing that the myths and legends that she had written off as a pageantry spectacle, as having a basis in reality. This could be the icon that brings the Mandalorians together again as a people.
To answer Jays question about Bo’s ships wings going up they act like air brakes when landing much like the wings flaps opening up and extending on a Boeing 747 when landing
I also thought it was gonna be a season of just collecting droid parts and doing random quests to get to Mandalore. I'm so glad they skipped past all that.
We’ve also seen a good chunk of the marketing clips already in the first 2 episodes. I think Ezra or Thrawn is coming a lot sooner than most people think
All that's left from the trailer is the children of watch fighting pirates in Navarro, the cloner Dr. Pershing in coruscant, the empire attacking din with advance tie fighters outside of bo Katans castle while he is I'm her ship and order 66 flashback
The look Grogu gave them makes me think they're potentially setting up a Bo - Din love thang. I don't hate it - it would also give them a workaround for having to fight one another for the Darksaber... maybe together they share it without combat and unite the two Mandalorian ideologies, and Mandalore to that end.
@10:32 With the engines being mounted on the wings, the rotation points the engines at the ground for VTOL. Moving the whole set of wings also applies additional atmospheric braking during landing cycles.
"We gotta ham fist two episodes that are just about Ahsoka for no reason following the Boba Fett model" I love that was pretty much said through clenched teeth. Right there with ya Jay...Justice for Boba Fett 🤣
I mean I bet there are plenty of people that know Jawa, most of the Jawa language is a real spoken language from a tribe somewhere in South Africa (I think that's right). If I am remembering correctly, there aren't saying anything it's just gibberish or unrelated phases with a few extra sounds thrown in (and some aftereffects from the sound team), but it is based on and very close to a real language. I want to say Trevor Noah and someone else have even pointed out in interviews that A New Hope has some Jawas just talking about random stuff in some scenes.
First episode was really good but this one was great,the look of the Mandalore and the Mythosaur at the end looked amazing :) Can't wait what happens next :)
Bo has a sweet space sled. She's wizard with that Dark Saber. It actually just gets in Din's way. Grogu was very brave...and obviously stronger. Amy Sedaris is a Star Wars treasure. Mythosaur. Mythosaur. Mythosaur. Hot damn.
The look on your faces at that last shot in the episode was worth the wait. Glad you’re feeling better Jay. Just wait till we get to the Bad Batch. Wednesday on Disney + was a double treat of goodness.
Jay: what’s the benefit to have the wings go down like that-“ Adam: cuz it’s awesome! Jay: ya but like.. it’s awesome .. but what’s the bene- Adam: ITS AWESOME 👀 Jay: but like 👉🏼👈🏻 .. what’s the (peters off)
Gentlemen, I watch The Mandalorian every week with my friend Dan....and your reactions to seeing the Mythosaur were exactly the same as ours!! I can't wait!!! You guys continue to bring me joy. 😊
Bo-katan sees Jedi as allies, while The Armorer referred to the Jedi as their enemy. They both see Grogu as a foundling. Grogu IS "THE MANDALORIAN" and I think he will play a role in uniting both sides. And he's gonna ride the mythosaur...why else would they show him overpowering and taming large beasts?
Watching Bo’s reaction when Din began renewing his vows, and then seeing the Mythosaur, makes me wonder if she will now buy into the old ways and bath/renew her own vows, thereby beginning the process to reunite the factions.
You know, a thought just occurred to me, this is only episode 2, with Bo's ease in wielding the darksaber and Din having told himself that he would go back to the Armorer to prove he'd been cleansed of his apparent sin..why do I feel like Bo might go with him and she might end up having to fight the Armorer cus of ya know..the horns. 👽👀🤔
I wish we could get more of that cyborg creature. The fact it was draining Din of his blood has some pretty horrific implications, especially when you see how old all that stuff is in its lair was.
3:21 Yep, I was thinking the same thing, "They're really just doing the thing here!" 5:54 I love you guys! 🤣 6:35 I agree! 8:02 Lol! I mean, you do kinda have a point 8:31 yep, it sure is! 12:28 not for long Adam 14:40 Good job Jay! 16:10 This is the moment I've been waiting for, your reaction to this epicness! not dissapointed!
Lolol god when I saw the Video’s screenshot I had to double take cause I REALLY thought it said “Splish, Splash, Daddy’s Takin’ A Bath” lolol and not “Din” lol god I love these two.
the cyborg...thing...wasn't a thing that I recognized or that seemingly anyone has, though it looks a LOT like General GRievous? Like I think he was draining Din (and those Alamite/troglodyte things) for their bio fluids to survive. What he was before is anyone's guess. Boonta Eve though is the holiday about a Hutt? But it was the event that led to the pod race in Episode 1 (Boonta Eve Classic)
Guys, you have heard of Boonta Eve before, in Episose I, The Phantom Menace. Anakin says it's the reason for the pod race. But seriously.... the revelations in this one are crazy! Din finds out that the Armoror was wrong (or lied) about the planet being cursed, and then Bo, who thinks the religion based on the legends, is all a bunch of hooey, sees the Mythosaur!!! So now both of them have just had their long term beliefs altered. Perhaps they just found their middle ground? And then the Dark Saber itself.... being wielded by her so easily! It's all so very intriguing!

The second Bo says her father died defending Mandalore and Din stops to show respect, that was a major moment for me.
Yeah, you can hear it in his voice how he respects the man without ever meeting him.
So was the look Grogu gave her. It was like he was saying I know how you feel. I’ve been there too.
That's just common courtesy ... I do it ,All the time in the real world ,,most people would if they're raised correctly...
@@bradyanselmi And you can see it in her face how touched she is that someone actually understands and respects the significance of a Mandalorian dying to defend Mandalore.
This is the way.
So many things in this episodes, but let's not forget that 46 years after he was passed over because of a bad motivator, R5 *finally* has an adventure.
Hope he continues to have more...and that he gets to meet R2-D2 again, and they interact, telling of their respective exploits in the galaxy.
And he really rather not, if he served in the Rebellion it was before A New Hope, like C1-10P he might have served in the GAR in a Y-wing. He seems to be much happier haveing a boring existence with no adventures or chance of being destroyed.
@@jlokison Yeah, now I'm interested to know what happened during his time serving The Rebellion, and how he ended up on Tatooine.
Timeline wise, it’s only been like 8-9…
LMAO
Bo-Katan was SHOOK when she saw that Mythosaur. She is starting to realize that there's a lot more to those old myths.
"Boonta Eve, that's a new one!" *cries in The Phantom Menace*
I love how the general audience's takeaway from all of this is how everyone is so proud of Grogu for being such a grown up
I'm honestly amazed how nobody gets the Boonta Eve reference. I think I saw two reaction groups who noticed the reference, and that was Kyle Katarn and Blind Wave.
@@joshjames582 if those two groups didn’t recognize it, they would have to turn in their Star Wars knowledge cards 😂
Cute grandpa Grogu, so grown up in his mid fifties!

Also thought about Boba being good with animals, so maybe he’ll be called in to help out with the Mythosaur?
Go Team Mandalore!
The word Jedi can describe more than one. Manda'lor is the same. Mandalorians are the followers of Manda'lor.
Bo Katan and Din...?
I could see it.
Exactly. None of them are worthy to rule alone, but together...
Good lord this show is fire...I'd love it.
Probably one of my favorite Mandalorian-episodes, so much story, charactergrowth and action in one episode.

Ugh...tugged on the ol' heart strings.

Same! (and when watching it myself first too, of course. 'Oh, we're doing the thing').
I'm certain Bo let out a full "What the Kriff?!" seeing that Mythosaur
I didn’t get that at all. I was like oh a scary big monster lol
The Mandalorians bathed too greedily and too deep.
@@LordFrobozz Well, when you've always hot that helmet on, things probably get a little ripe... 😁 (And they called it a mine... A MINE!)
Probably let out some dank farrik, too.

It is good armament and is very maneuverable on landings so it can drop troops and zip out to give air cover immediately. A great ship for Mandalorians.
It's also made by MandalMotors (thank god they made them canon) and the Mando'a name for the ship model is Kom'rk.
its a space VTOL, basically
Rules for swimming: wait 20 min after eating and don't wear armor (you'll sink to the bottom).
Boonta Eve, as in Boonta Eve Classic. It’s the Podrace that Anakin took part in as a kid.

Still missing the Pershing scenes.
i appreciate all the GUTS references you guys make.
The mythosaur was just chilling and wanting a nap only to be interrupted by their nonsense.
I have NO idea where the rest of this season is going and honestly, I am so here for it!
Same! It’s gonna be huge! I hope Grogu talks soon.
I feel like we’ve already seen most of the trailer scenes, so yea this could go anywhere
@@thesithchef8760 we just have the tie interceptors, the imperial scenes, and Grogu’s flashback left I think.
The Pergill might be a foreshadowing of what is to happen. With ending of rebels and to lead into Ahsoka's search for Ezra
Bo: how good are you with the force?
Bo: you must be pretty good, if you got back to me.
R5: am I frickin joke to you😅
Boonta Eve is connected directly to the Pod Race that Anakin won in the Phantom Menace. You even see two speeders racing around the city in the opening shot.
My first thought when I saw that droid's eye: "Whoa. Winifred's spell book got a mecha."
Bo is probably the most conflicted character in the show. She dislikes Din, yet doesn't hesitate to save him.
I wouldn't say she dislikes him. she's just bitter because everyone left and she's now the Leader of no one. He got the dark saber fair and square according to their traditions.

I thought, "If there is another stupid monster in the waters, I'm done watching the Mando." Mythosaur revealed: "Ok, I'll allow it."
What I find interesting is how the phrase “This is the Way” is everything from a snarky response to reverent respect.
“Forget about it!”
4:55 I was thinking about that too and it wasn’t until watching this that I realized he probably didn’t want to leave Grogu when he went to the mines, and he doesn’t have a pressurized helmet for Grogu (yet 👀), so the atmosphere had to be safe for both of them
yup, thats been confirmed for s4 but idk how much i want to trust any s4 related stuff just yet :D (regarding a helmet for Grogu)
Absolutely Insane to bring a Mythosaur into the story. It's amazing!!!
This is the way!!!
there were so many thing in this episode that truly just made me fall in love with this series it truly was amazingly done. from Bo pushing grogu back to din saying "This is the way" to bo and to seeing the Mythosaur. I truly am excited for the episode 😭🤌🏼

Imagine short circuiting yourself to avoid being sold to a moisture farmer, which would have led to it being part of the rebellion, just to get sold to a Mandalorian years later
Also have to remember, Bo Katan was part of Death Watch (Pre-cursor to Child of the Watch).
Looks to me like it's Bo'Katan who got redeemed the most in that episode. She could swing the sword while Din could not, she even went swimming in the pool to save drowning Din and was the one who saw the dragon. This is the way.
I think she keeps the helmet on for the foreseeable future now. She has been converted!
Bo is good with the sabre because she's had years to train with it. Din just needs to hit up Ahsoka for fencing lessons.
This episode was made for you guys. Extra Grogu cuteness 😊
Cannot wait for the Mythosaur to be shown in it’s entirety. That thing was huge!
And that was just it's face/head. 👽👀🤯
Your “pog” soup joke killed me hahaha as a 1990 baby I love that I could relate hahaha
You know if Din tames that beast he will be considered the True Mandalore by the True Mandalorians that Jango Fett fought alongside against the Death Watch. Meaning he’d be the closest thing to uniting all of Mandalore given he now has the Dark Saber, a symbol of the Death Watch, and may have a Mythisour!
Whenever they talk about the Living Waters of Mandalore, I always hear "Why don't you purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka."
😂😂😂😂 You and me both and it is the best phrase association ever!
Blouses win
She trained with it, Din can learn to use it too. I wonder if she will help him now did you see how she looked when din was redoing his oath to the code it looked like admiration to me. I think she realized he is like her father… then the mythasour… omg… not only did they do the thing they kicked the thing in a bang.
I have to give you two credit.. from the opening to the comedy.. you two were born to be hosts of a show... well done gentlemen..
I have a theory. I think perhaps the reason Din doesn't wield the darksaber well is because he didn't consider himself a true mandolorian, either consciously or unconsciously, after he removed his helmet. Now that he has been bathed in the Living Waters, I wonder if that mental block will be eliminated and Din will start being able to use the saber more effectively.
The way my heart jumped out of my chest, did a little dance, featured itself on Triple D, built the Winterhold College, said hello to a stargate, entered itself through itself on Mac and cheese and overpalpitated when I saw Gerald...
THE MYTHOSAUR!!!!!
10:26 - I can think of three benefits of the wings tilting upward.
They act as air breaks, they orientate the thrusters, and they reduce surface area (and therefore air resistance) when ascending/descending.
Yea haha its pretty sick, but also kinda figured this would be the reason
I think the upturned wings double as flags on a battlefield - lets you know who's here, where to regroup, intimidation factor, etc.
This episode solidifies Dave Filoni as the BIGGEST Star Wars nerd. A Mythosaur. Mando is 1000% riding that before the end of the season.
I think Grogu will definitely be taking it.
My two favorite parts: the Simpson’s reference to Milhouse saying ALF is back… in pog form.😂. And Jay’s quick reference to Werewolf bar mitzvah.

10:33 The wings on a Kom'rk-class Fighter being able to swivel upward like that allow for it to preform vertical take-offs/landings more efficiently (similar to the V-22 Osprey)
folding wings are usually to save space on a deck but i imagine they also have tight vertical clearance tolerances.
The wings folding up would increase air resistance allowing for a quicker landing in atmosphere, and it repositions the primary thrusters so that they can be used for vertical takeoff or landing.
"The songs of eons past foretold of the Mythosaur rising up to herald a new age of Mandalore." chillsssssssss could Din be the chosen one?
I love that The Living Waters is a tourist trap. There is a freaking plaque up. 😂
I've been watching tons of reactions and waiting for you guys to see the Mythosaur. Woohoo!
Between Mando & Bad Batch, we are being reminded that Star Wars is full of Kaiju-sized creatures & Mechs...
There's been a lot of discussion about things Bo-Katan might do to regain the will of the people as a leader, rather than just getting the Darksaber back, and managing to follow Mandalore's footsteps by taming a Mythosaur would pretty much trump everything. Wonder if that's what we'll see.
The faces you guys are making 8:08 thank you for making my day
Can I Just say the scene where Grogu gets to the ship to find Bo reminds me of the epiosde when Anikin and Mace are trapped in CloneWars and Anikin sends R2 to get help from the temple.
Same music , same energy.
Bo-Katan and Sabine can wield the Dark Saber. Sabine gifted the saber to Bo-Katan. I think Din needs to learn how to let go and feel. Sabine and Bo-Katan had to learn that. I wonder who can teach him to feel. As for the lore, who can lead them? There are some Mandalorians who do not care for Bo-Katan. Then there is Din. He doesn't want to lead. He doesn't want the power of that position. However, you know what they say, " Those who do not seek power are the ones to lead." Then there are Mandalorians who want the saber so they can get the power. This has really got me asking more questions. I wonder if Sabine will make an appearance. She has to. As for Boonta Eve, that's a celebration for a Hut named Boonta Hestlic who ascended to Godhood. Yep, they got that kind of thing in Star Wars. Anyway, they get drunk and have awesome pod races...you know....Anikan and fireworks.
Boonta Eve Is a Tatooinian Thing, celebrating the ascension of a previous Hutt. It's the occasion of the pod race in Menace.
Doing the thing indeed! I, like most people I'm assuming, thought we weren't going to get to the mines until near the end of the aseason but nope, second episode in oh and here's a Mythosaur as well! I'm so excited for the rest of the season cause I genuinely have no idea what's going to happen now.
All this AND Mass Effect references?! I’m Commander Shepard and this is my favourite reaction on the Citadel.
This show is perfect...it just always does the thing.
Love this episode and the reaction to the Mythosaur. I am so hyped for the next episode. I hope that Jay gets to feeling better. ❤🎉

Mando did not handle the dark saber because he was conflicted. He was hoping that bathing in the waters would resolve that, and then he would also better use the dark saber.
He was also torn on the fact his cult is different than Bo, and how other mandos exist and take off the helmet, he’s bathing so he’s no longer an exile and can fully raise Grogu as a Mando as he believes he can’t while being exiled whether or not he joins how Bo is and freely takes it off, I believe he’s too proud to “switch” “cults” while currently exiled from his
Space Morlocks got told.
The looks on your faces matched the look on mine when I saw the Mythosaur.
Smorelocks ... Crunchy on the outside, gooey on the inside. 😁
Don't know what that droid is but I think it's supercool and one of the most evil looking droids I've seen in SW!
That spider droid riding creepy alien sounded a heck of a lot like a geonosian. It was super-creepy too.
I'm still getting major vibes that some jedi is going to come help Grogu make a Grogu-sized lightsabre and the kyber (or whatever) crystal that calls to him is the one inside the darksaber. I was talking to my partner about it earlier and she said, "Well, he doesn't need a Grogu-sized sabre, he can just pick up the one Din uses with The Force." Mind blown
It may have been a version of a Sentinel biomech Droid Palpatine sent out. I think first appeared in the Heir to the empire novels.
@@ananimaus7683 ooo, nice pull.
If I had to take a wild guess, Jay, I'd say that the wings go up like that during the landing process to probably just help slow down the ship by reducing its aerodynamics, thus making it land easier/smoother. It probably also just adds some style points too though. 😂
I think that Bo and Din need to be co-rulers because they balance each other.
Yes please! Maybe not away, but once Thrawn makes his presence known, their only chance of beating him will be together with Grogu.
Something to consider; it was Bo that saw the mythasaur, not Din. This might be a way to redeem her character as the rightful ruler of Mandalore without having to possess the dark saber. I interpret the scene where she is staring at the water and a possible moment of revelation, finally recognizing that the myths and legends that she had written off as a pageantry spectacle, as having a basis in reality. This could be the icon that brings the Mandalorians together again as a people.
Grogu is like a little Professor X with that floaty vehicle
Chuckled you when called the savages Troglodytes...my reaction was "oh great, Morlocks"
To answer Jays question about Bo’s ships wings going up they act like air brakes when landing much like the wings flaps opening up and extending on a Boeing 747 when landing
I also thought it was gonna be a season of just collecting droid parts and doing random quests to get to Mandalore. I'm so glad they skipped past all that.
We’ve also seen a good chunk of the marketing clips already in the first 2 episodes. I think Ezra or Thrawn is coming a lot sooner than most people think
All that's left from the trailer is the children of watch fighting pirates in Navarro, the cloner Dr. Pershing in coruscant, the empire attacking din with advance tie fighters outside of bo Katans castle while he is I'm her ship and order 66 flashback
please Thrawn, still remember him from the old XWing vs Tie Fighter game
Bo's wing design, means the ship can potentially hover in an atmosphere. It's a dropship.
yes it is, it was used to deploy mandalorian warriors in TCW
The look Grogu gave them makes me think they're potentially setting up a Bo - Din love thang. I don't hate it - it would also give them a workaround for having to fight one another for the Darksaber... maybe together they share it without combat and unite the two Mandalorian ideologies, and Mandalore to that end.
That Robot that captures Din was actually designed by Phil Tippett who designed a lot of the original star wars creatures!
@10:32 With the engines being mounted on the wings, the rotation points the engines at the ground for VTOL. Moving the whole set of wings also applies additional atmospheric braking during landing cycles.
"We gotta ham fist two episodes that are just about Ahsoka for no reason following the Boba Fett model" I love that was pretty much said through clenched teeth. Right there with ya Jay...Justice for Boba Fett 🤣
I mean I bet there are plenty of people that know Jawa, most of the Jawa language is a real spoken language from a tribe somewhere in South Africa (I think that's right). If I am remembering correctly, there aren't saying anything it's just gibberish or unrelated phases with a few extra sounds thrown in (and some aftereffects from the sound team), but it is based on and very close to a real language. I want to say Trevor Noah and someone else have even pointed out in interviews that A New Hope has some Jawas just talking about random stuff in some scenes.
First episode was really good but this one was great,the look of the Mandalore and the Mythosaur at the end looked amazing :) Can't wait what happens next :)
Ha, great start - Adam wasn't ready for Jay's "HEY PEACHES!" Love this review. Great episode.
Bo has a sweet space sled. She's wizard with that Dark Saber. It actually just gets in Din's way.
Grogu was very brave...and obviously stronger.
Amy Sedaris is a Star Wars treasure.
Mythosaur.
Mythosaur.
Mythosaur. Hot damn.
The look on your faces at that last shot in the episode was worth the wait. Glad you’re feeling better Jay. Just wait till we get to the Bad Batch. Wednesday on Disney + was a double treat of goodness.
I finished both with a "come on! You can't end like that, I need more!" Both were really good
I doubt many caught the “Werewolf Bar Mitzvah” reference, but I did.
That “ahh man, too much.. HiC..” fade to black took me out 😂😂😭
Jay: what’s the benefit to have the wings go down like that-“
Adam: cuz it’s awesome!
Jay: ya but like.. it’s awesome .. but what’s the bene-
Adam: ITS AWESOME 👀
Jay: but like 👉🏼👈🏻 .. what’s the (peters off)
Gentlemen, I watch The Mandalorian every week with my friend Dan....and your reactions to seeing the Mythosaur were exactly the same as ours!! I can't wait!!! You guys continue to bring me joy. 😊
Bo-katan sees Jedi as allies, while The Armorer referred to the Jedi as their enemy. They both see Grogu as a foundling. Grogu IS "THE MANDALORIAN" and I think he will play a role in uniting both sides. And he's gonna ride the mythosaur...why else would they show him overpowering and taming large beasts?
You guys are great - and helpful providing background info for some of us (me) who haven’t seen any of animated series.
Watching Bo’s reaction when Din began renewing his vows, and then seeing the Mythosaur, makes me wonder if she will now buy into the old ways and bath/renew her own vows, thereby beginning the process to reunite the factions.
Jay: “Did they explain what’s living about the waters?”
Me: *eagerly anticipates the ending*
14:44 I also said “dalaorian” after Bo’s “great man” and no reactor i’ve watched since the episode game out said it but I knew I could count on Jay
12:36
🎵Hello Darksaber my old frieeenndd🎵
🎵I’ve come to wield you once agaaaaiinn🎵
🎵Because my name is Bo-Kataaaann…🎂
Boonta Eve isn't new, it's the festival hosted the pod race that freed Anakin Skywalker.
You know, a thought just occurred to me, this is only episode 2, with Bo's ease in wielding the darksaber and Din having told himself that he would go back to the Armorer to prove he'd been cleansed of his apparent sin..why do I feel like Bo might go with him and she might end up having to fight the Armorer cus of ya know..the horns. 👽👀🤔
Boba
Rides a Rancor
Din: "Hold my spotchka"
(now appearing on Mandalore)
I think the reason he sank was yes because the armor is heavy but also because he was weak and just got his blood drained
I wish we could get more of that cyborg creature. The fact it was draining Din of his blood has some pretty horrific implications, especially when you see how old all that stuff is in its lair was.
It may have been a version of a Sentinel biomech Droid Palpatine sent out. I think first appeared in the Heir to the empire novels.
Really was a big couple of weeks for Pedro's kids 😂 they've grown so much
Both of them saved Daddy!
I also can totally believe Amy Sedaris knows Jawa. She's best friends with Stephen Colbert, who taught himself Elvish.
The Simpsons pog reference! I love it! I thought the same thing!! “Remember Alf? He’s back. In pog form.”
3:21 Yep, I was thinking the same thing, "They're really just doing the thing here!"
5:54 I love you guys! 🤣
6:35 I agree!
8:02 Lol! I mean, you do kinda have a point
8:31 yep, it sure is!
12:28 not for long Adam
14:40 Good job Jay!
16:10 This is the moment I've been waiting for, your reaction to this epicness! not dissapointed!
Lolol god when I saw the Video’s screenshot I had to double take cause I REALLY thought it said “Splish, Splash, Daddy’s Takin’ A Bath” lolol and not “Din” lol god I love these two.
the cyborg...thing...wasn't a thing that I recognized or that seemingly anyone has, though it looks a LOT like General GRievous? Like I think he was draining Din (and those Alamite/troglodyte things) for their bio fluids to survive. What he was before is anyone's guess.
Boonta Eve though is the holiday about a Hutt? But it was the event that led to the pod race in Episode 1 (Boonta Eve Classic)
Guys, you have heard of Boonta Eve before, in Episose I, The Phantom Menace. Anakin says it's the reason for the pod race.
But seriously.... the revelations in this one are crazy!
Din finds out that the Armoror was wrong (or lied) about the planet being cursed, and then Bo, who thinks the religion based on the legends, is all a bunch of hooey, sees the Mythosaur!!!
So now both of them have just had their long term beliefs altered. Perhaps they just found their middle ground?
And then the Dark Saber itself.... being wielded by her so easily!
It's all so very intriguing!
