I loved this episode
DOING YOUR MOM
You can imagine the staff meeting in a conference room flanked by predatory F2P microtransaction design white boards where someone came up with the name "Tacticool" - and all the execs smiled and approved the tacky mainstream name, as dollar signs flashed in their eyes.
So star wars has rings *and* glassings... huh
Alrighty
Everyone was expecting a Mando cameo but we got a full on Madalorian episode.... so wizarding !!!
It’s bs what a waste of a boba fett episode! They could of… you know… just made a mando season 3 like they’re supposed to!! But no it’s this bs!
@@stephenanderson5630 fr, we have to wait another year for season 3 because of book of boba 😂
@@stephenanderson5630 no not a waste, first they announced boba season there's only 6 ep , but later they said 7, so that means, this ep is added in betweeen, it is still not a waste since he did not take away from boba. sorry for my bad english
So wizard, not “wizarding”. This isn’t Harry Potter…
@@nakachinjah7240 exactly, you're the real SW fan here
Did anyone else catch the nod to Luke in ROTJ when leaving Tatooine he tell R2 that they weren’t going to go to the rendezvous just yet because they needed to “pay a visit to an old friend (Yoda)”? Just like Mando needs to “pay a visit to a little friend (Grogu)”. Same species and both while leaving Tatooine.
no one care
I care
Good catch!!
I didn’t; good spot!
@@dryaddyad7757 Nice little reference there.
The return of the infamous line “I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold” truly gave me goosebumps, glad to see mando back in action!

@@LegoChewbacca she's a baby tho? 📸
I literally called it out before he said it thinking he was gonna say something else and ended up saying the line at the same time as him lol
I want to start using this line whenever I can. Like with my wife. "I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold...to bed". Of course, she's always cold. :-)
The mix of the Boba Fett and Mandalorian themes was PURE GENIUS and beautifully executed! One of my favorite moments in this episode!
Agreed!!! Loved this!
I've got goosebumps!🥺
@Phlox Subulata “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son,that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
We all deserve to go to hell because we have sinned. But God loved us and gave us His Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross in our place to pay the punishment of all of our sins for us when he died on the cross. Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and yet God the Son also. God the Father (God)has raised Jesus his son from the dead. JESUS IS COMING AGAIN!!!! Repent of your sins, and believe in who Jesus is and what He did for you and that God the Father has raised Him from the dead and you WILL BE SAVED FROM THE LAKE OF FIRE(hell).
Sinner’s prayer
Lord, I know I’m a sinner, I believe that you died on the cross in my place of burning in hell forever so I wouldn’t have to go to hell. I accept your sacrifice for me. Please save me from the lake of fire and forgive my sins. Thank you for the gift of eternal life!
Amen.
Now turn from your wicked ways towards Jesus Christ and surrender your life to Him!
If you have any questions please ask me!
God bless you!😊♥️♥️♥️
never thought we would've gotten a lot of Phantom Menace references in this episode honestly, i was quite surprised, when Mando said "Wizard" call back to the podrace scene, and of course the star fighter ship which was Anakin Skywalker's first fighter he ever had
Sadly it’s not Anakin’s, the writing on the front of the fighter is different from Anakin’s
@@swedlepop7092 same model
@@swedlepop7092 same model Tho
I was happy when he went into beggers canyon and they shiwed the service ramp. I love phantom so it was awsome to me
The next episode is gonna blow your mind!
I’m really glad that they’re giving mando time to learn how to use the dark saber instead of him just being a samurai with it right away
Rey be like:
*ight ima head out*
It'll make it more satisfying when we actually see him go full samurai with it, then it'll feel earned
Honestly one thing I absolutely loved about this ep was the direction! Everything was just directed so good. Bryce Dallas Howard really deserves the praise she's getting for this (nm here but a ton on Ig, Twitter).
Riight! Book of Bobba Fett is kind of disappointing tbh, it's just not that good. This episode doesn't make it good either, it just shows how good the mandalorian was. Honestly bobba fett never should have happened.
@@ceez3841 yeah. it made me realize how much better Mado is
The fact that Bryce gave us some nostalgic scenes especially much love to Episode 1 movie.
@@Lugiahunter7 Indeed.
@@ceez3841 I don't agree but I can see that pov.
I noticed The Armorer was waving around the Dark Saber with one hand while explainning its history. So basically, shes even more of a badass than before.
What if the Armorer is Sabine?
@@ChainedFei “Bo Karan was gifted the dark saber….by uh….some asshole….who definitely isn’t me.”
@@ChainedFei nah u think the armourer is rook kast
Def not Sabine, but it's a funny thought.
This episode made me realize how much I just want Mandalorian season 3
Winter is coming...
Did you notice how, beat-for-beat, rebuilding the starfighter is a call-back to the "Greased Lightning" sequence from Grease (1978), including the shop teacher saying before the race, "If it were in any better condition, it would fly."
Whoa.
Well, there always has been a lot of 1950's nostalgia in Star Wars.
Great catch!
After watching Star Wars chronologically (including the Clone wars, rebels, and mando), I loved seeing the callbacks to Rebels with the dark saber and it being heavy if you aren’t connected to it
How long did that take?
have you watched the other shows yet?
@@ddaniel5920 ?
As soon as Boba Fett ends I’m gonna do that too. Can’t wait
@@ddaniel5920 I’ve literally never seen or heard *anything* about more shows.
@20:20 The starfighter is great and all and I'm sure it's being introduced for a specific plot reason, not just to give Din a way to get from system to system without riding economy class, but him accepting it as a replacement for the Razorcrest (or a Razorcrest-class of ship) really suggests he's done bounty hunting. Just like at the start of the episode, he's not bringing anyone in encased in carbonite in that ship and he's not bringing in more than one bounty at a time 'warm'. Though maybe he can collect a bunch of 'cold' ones by just filling up the former droid spot with heads.
True
i think it will be grogu that sits there while mando will fight, like luke or anakin and less like han
Can we appreciate how Fennec almost looks happy to see Din.
Almost?
@@JamarD421 It’s assuming Fennec can feel anything at all.
Seeing that Luke used to fly through Beggar's Canyon, I assume he noticed the debris from Anakin at least once but never knew his dad did that. I find that interesting to think abt
The jawas probably picked it clean before Luke was even born
@@zebulonforchion1725 That gate looked wooden or plastic. Jawas only take metal.
@@zebulonforchion1725 Picked it clean? The debris is still there.
25 year debris tho. Lol. I loved the call back but thats alot of years for that crap to still be there.
@@SithLordAnakin congratulations you just realised the problem with plastic
Another thing I noticed was after Mando passed the commerical ship he starts spinning which was the move Anakin thought was "a cool trick" in Episode I
Ezra?
Ezra?
I would love to see Boba and Mando have a Superman Batman type friendship. Where they have each others back, but they also have their own lives. And neither is a sidekick
Yea
legit i know it was basically Disney giving us season 3 of the Mandalorian in a boba fett series, but overall , it was such a damn great episode and a good story of what was going on during the events for Din Djarin before Boba and Fennic Shand hired him for the extra muscle they needed against the Pikes syndicate
Basically mando season 3 episode 0. Kind of hilarious it’s the best episode of book of boba (so far) 😂
@@Devon.with.an.i yeah basically a sneak peek for season 3 of mando
I like episode 2 the best so far. The whole psychedelic trip from a lizard was super interesting.
I think Fett (and maybe Fennic) will join the Mudhorn Clan. (Din and Grogu's clan of "two", at the end of Season 1.)
There is nothing to say that the Din and Grogu's story intersects with Fett's in such a way that it's an important chapter in Fett's Book. It may be the intro to Mando S3, but it could be integral to Boba Fett's story.
@@Backroad_Junkie sh would need to become a mando
Someone brought it to my attention. Only mandalorians that followed Darth Maul had horns on their helmets. Which also went against Bo-Katan 🤔
Damm ur right
Damn good catch
Damn more of them
I thought in the first episode of the Mandalorian a twist is that "I can bring you in cold" actually didn't mean dead, but encased in carbonite. Mando has become more hardcore since he has to use public transportation and can't carry people freezers.
I feel like he’s become less hardcore if anything. He didn’t want to hurt anyone he didn’t need to
@@Devon.with.an.i Ehh, feel like he’s always been a reasonable fellow, he won’t kill you if you don’t do anything funny.
I don't agree. When he made the comment, he touched his blaster. Indicating he would kill him. He has no qualms about killing.
I think that eventually the Armorer is going to be the main enemy. Too dogmatic for Din
I agree but i also think we will see bo katan wanting it
@@captainackbar3097 wouldn't it be great to see the two of them duel?!? 😍🤩😍
really? i think theyre gonna hook up ;)
Nah, the Armorer is old school. Loyalty. Din just gotta handle biz on Mandolore, which Boba will accidentally be a part of... so they'll both be redeemed to team against Bo-Katan, then each other.
She's too dogmatic for Din but definately won't be an antagonist.
I know this was basically S3E1 of The Mandalorian, but it was a great episode and a good story of what was happening to Din before Boba hired him
DOING YOUR MOM
@@SparrowIZ wow you’re so funny I am currently dying of laughter please help me please I can’t take anymore
@@SparrowIZ DOING YOUR DAD
@@redpaints DOING BOTH
@@thephony1651 nice 👍
This episode also felt like an homage to Jon Favreau, with the scene when Tony Stark took his Mark II armor on a test run. Instead of the kid with the ice cream cone, it was the Roidian kid, seeing Mando for the first time.
This shows Din sees Grogu as a foundling just with a Jedi to learn and protect himself and not a Padawan learning the ways of the Jedi to become a Jedi knight. That may cause conflict with Luke and Din they have different ideologies. One is about solo, no feelings, no attachments and fear the other is about clan, tribe, strength in numbers and family.
luke changed tho, only reason he brought anakin back to the light side was through the attachment he had with his father
@@mattjuckett9327 not only that, Luke will teach Mando to use the darksaber
Luke literally went against all the ways of the Jedi in the og trilogy
Well luke left his training with yoda to save his friends
@@Private.Willie.Stroker And lost his hand in the process. Calling it "save" is streching it since he got saved himself.
The Armorer knowing about attachment and still willing to give Grogu armor is so Sith. ❤️
Let’s all admit we all would end up the same as mando burning/cutting ourselves struggling with the weight of the saber as a non-force user
It's not literally heavy and it's "weight" isn't inherently connected to the Force. The "weight" is reflection of it's user's emotional state. It is heavy because Din is emotionally conflicted, reflecting the Jedi teachings of Tar Vizsla. It can also become "charged" and feel much lighter due to positive emotions like "love" or "loyalty", reflecting the familial nature of the Mandalorian's.
@@Nezxmi Iirc, Kanan explained it the best, as it was something to do with how the energy flowered through the crystal, and the more connected you are the better the flow and the lighter it is, but I can't remember the full wording sadly.
But I do admit, I didn't even know he cut his own leg, I thought he got shot hahaha, shows how I wasn't paying attention
Not me I’m built different
How do you know Din *doesn't* have the Force?
I absolutely LOVE the fact that Din can now use his beskar to brace against his saber. That means he has a incredibly distinct advantage over any jedi because of the amount of leverage he has from being able to push against any point on the blade compared to just the hilt. He can break any blade lock by muscling with his arm like a shield
He just doesn’t have the swordsmanship to truly wield it. So I’m sure a Jedi would still beat him even with his advantage
A jedi can kill Mando without needing to pull a lightsaber out.
@@Zumpster Ahh, but a true Jedi would never do that
@@MattMGK see general Grievous vs Ben Kenobi.
@@Zumpster Not really... not all Jedi have as much brute force power as Anakin Skywalker or Obi-Wan Kenobi (who had a good deal less).
Mando pulling out that little Grogu shaped bundle and staring at it brought a tear to my eye. You can really tell he considers Grogu family.
Yes
I initially thought that they were using that as a template to make a mandalorian helmet for grogu!
@@stephenhowlett4141 I thought about what armor it would be and a helmet would be funny but would probably end up looking too silly on the Grogu puppet. I think beskar ringmail will look dope though.
@@sirraf23 i think it’s the mudhorn signet/symbol to officially become a clan by creed
Will Grogu have the best of both worlds? Mandalorian Jedi!
They are doing everything perfect!….i cant be any more prouder of the cast and crew. And I love the one true element that the story is revealing, is that loyalty and respect with in brothers ….like a futuristic godfather family in space…i just don’t want to see the mandilorian wake up with a monsters head in his bed.
At some point in S3, Mando will find in the waters beneath the mines not only redemption, but also a mythosaur which he will ride to the surface
Absolutely. It MUST happen. And Din must be FULLY IMMERSED. I have spoken.
fr, chekov’s gun, why did the armorer namedrop the mythosaur if not foreshadowing
I think TBOBF actually clued us in on who will help Mando out by having the BD-1 unit cameo. Perhaps it’ll be Cal Kestis that is training Grogu under Luke’s blessing. And maybe he’ll assist Mando with the Dark Saber!!
That is entirely possible due to the fact that the actor that played him used his face for cal
I really would have liked to see that
What if Mano trains his dark saber skill with Luke in S3 just like sabine/kenan.
That would be so awesome!
I absolutely loved that they introduced the BD unit into live action! I especially loved the happy tippy-taps ^^
Cant wait for Cal Cestus to come into Live Action with BD-1
All I realized from this episode is how desparate Bo Katan is to lead the mandalorians, Boba was right the empire glassed Mandalore so there is no benefit in trying to retake Mandalore again. They even made it easier for the empire to glass Mandalore, with all that Darth Maul problem and their loss after the Siege of Mandalore making the planet very weak and vulnerable.
Maybe parts of Mandalore weren't glassed. "Don't believe everything you hear."-Bo
@@brentkoivopolo6200 The Mines of Mandalore could still be intact since they are under the surface like a bomb shelter. Their could also be those mythosuar things hiding there.
This episode reinforced the Mandalorian parallel with the Jedi. Like the force, beskar is to be used for defense. I’m surprised this wasn’t brought up!
I got two words to that: Whistling Birds.
@@Carabas72 ah
This episode was hands down my favorite episode from both shows. Can’t wait to see where it goes. Thanks for the break down. 🙏🏼
The one thing that stuck with me was what made the armorer ask if he had ever taken his helmet off? That question seemed to come out of nowhere.
I was really confused by that too!
I guess it is part of the duel ceremony
I felt like it granted an opportunity to summarize the transformation and challenging of his belief system since they last saw each other. This small question represents much more than the answer itself.
I really wanna see more of mandalores destruction as that scene was amazing
Well you better bring some beskar to the Armorer because apparently that thing is their bacta tank.
Given that Boba displays a Mythosaur on his armor, I wonder if his "rise" as crime lord is the harbinger of Mandalorian restoration?
No.
Boba Fett couldn't care less about all things Mandalorian.
Also, that prophesy is likely self-serving bunk the Children Of the Watch made up rather than an actual magical prophecy.
@@Carabas72 Yeah but in stories like this, the “literal” version of the prophecy can still turn out to be BS while a more allegorical version bears truth. And while Boba didn’t care for Mandalore last year, he cares about his father, who was a Foundling, and in his own story is talking an awful lot of the value of collectivism, trust, and honor. Don’t rule him out.
Christian Yaerger exactly! Boba survived the Sarlacc & became Mandalore in legends. I can tell Favreau & Filoni are restoring that narrative.
Being a fan of Legends Jango Fett - Open Seasons comic yrs ago It was cool how they canonized Jango Fett as a foundling and (True Mandalorian) under Jasper.
@@SwaggerLikeUz
They canonized Jango Fett as a foundling. Current canon still has no Jaspers in it.
at most he would help Din to embrace his path to restore Mandalore
Maybe Mando is looking to ask for training in lightsaber wielding and see Grogu at the same time.
That’s a really good point. Maybe Like will give him some pointers. Somehow I doubt Mando will return with Grogu though. I reckon he’ll stay at the academy.
Not sure it will be mentioned in the video but I think we got a bit of foreshadowing that he will get Grogu back.... the mechanic put a glass dome over where the astromech used to go, its pretty much perfect size for Grogu now.
@@samuelwoods164 or its for his bounties to be brought in warm, but he'll take Grogu for a ride for sure.
I would love to see grogu learning lightsaber and interacting with luke in the next ep
I could see din becoming the second mando/jedi 100% after this episode
The flute mando theme was heard at the very end of episode 4, so I knew we were seeing him this episode was such a delight when I heard it I stood up from the couch, and then we get a full mando episode ? What a treat.
I got hella psyched at that part!😀
How did Mando “travel” to the ring city with no ship and weapons and a decapitated head? He didn’t. The first scene occurred on the ring, he was walking distance away.
Yeah that's what I think it was too.
He called an Uber obviously
@@numble9773 spUBER - Space Uber
I think the meat locker was on that ring world. So, he just needed to find his "clan".
Just a thought, but with Boba Fett's sigil being "the mythasaur" could, The Armorer's prophecy be referring to his rise? Especially if the Dark Sabre is making its way over to Tatooine with Mando.
He'd have to win it in combat. They don't currently have any conflict with each other.
Boba Fett doesn't have a sigil (or a clan for that matter). He has a decal stuck on his armour. He has never been a part of Mandalorian culture, and explicitly does not consider himself to be part of that culture.
@@Carabas72 seeing that Jango was a foundling and fought in the Mandalorian wars, Boba has more of a pure lineage than anyone else. That's why I think Boba Fett will be the one in the end to fulfill this prophesy.
@@BossHogBro that's a good point because character wise you want to give command to the character who wants it the least and deserves it the most.
Mando is the mythasaur. He's clearly going to be the character who brings back Mandalore.
I can imagine Mando finding Grogu to give him his gift, and Grogu somehow teaching Mando how to wield the Dark Saber.
Or Luke. Or howabout *Mara Jade Skywalker* ?
@@brentkoivopolo6200 that would be amazing
I think Luke would make more sense but who knows maybe Grogu might teach mando.
Something you might’ve missed that I thought was cool: The cross dissolve transition with the spear bisecting the moon closely resembles the crest of the Journeyman Protectors of Concord Dawn (the emblem on Boba Fett’s chest armor).
If I remember the kyber crystal is a living crystal connected to the force.
I think why the dark saber is getting heavier is because it's testing the strength and worthiness of its wielder if there fit to be it's Master.
that’s right
Definitely not strength or worthiness but rather inner conflict. We have seen plenty of strong non-worthy characters wielding it
@@julianceja8691 so it’s pretty much Mjolnir but in Star Wars
@@coltbogan
Well, every single last Lightsaber is like that. It's not specific to the Darksaber.
That shot of mandalore in flames with the k2 droids and probe droids was one of the coolest star wars shots I’ve seen
My family and I loved the return of the Mandalorian. We also enjoy the Book of Boba Fett and hope to see the last two episodes finish with a bang.
Perfect chapter!
The Naboo starfighter got me the most, how he flew it through the canyons reminded me of young Anakin pod racing in Episode 1.
This is the way!
I think that's *exactly* what they were going for, J! :)
The Book of Boba Fett Season 1 Episode 5 is actually The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 0 (comic books sometimes use the designation Issue 0)
I agree to this.
it is also a backdoor pilot to season 3
Thank you for mentioning the one take lift scene. It was the perfect antidote to the over the top fast cuts of the recent sequels.
One thing that I love about these shows is the leitmotifs for the main characters. Whenever Boba does something cool we get a flute, whenever Din Djarin walks into an establishing shot, we get a flute. It's such a cool detail that despite the repetitiveness and cheesiness of the practice never gets tiring.
Really makes it feel like an old spaghetti western
When I was watching with my mom I would literally go “DO DO DO DOOOOOO” whenever something even mildly interesting happened to Mando lmao
To me, Din Djarin is worthy of the Darksaber. He's one of the most Mandalorian Mandalorians I've ever seen in the star wars universe. In my opinion either him or Sabine.
Din Djarin is the Jon Snow of the Mandalorians
@@Revivessentials So he's a badass, good
It’s isn’t about worthy maul had it and led mandalore it’s about killing for power nothing worthy about that
@@flamebreaker7318
It's about not having a conflicted mind. Killing for power has nothing to do with wielding a lightsaber.
@@flamebreaker7318 I know, but I believe that a heroic person should wield the Darksaber.
I've been saying the colourful speeders look like Naboo, specifically Theed craftsmanship for weeks now!
I 100% expecting the Mod gang to fawn over Mando's ship when they meet him because it's a classic made by the same company that makes their bikes.
Any planet can make hight tech stylized things, tho, not just Naboo.
@@brentkoivopolo6200 not saying no other planet can have stylish things, just saying the specific smooth curves coming to a point style of Theed vehicles can be seen on the base vehicle under all the mods.
Hell, the yellow one was the exact shade as the N-1 Starfighters in Episode 1.
I haven't really seen anyone say this yet but I'm guessing that while visiting Grogu, Luke may help Mando use the Darksaber effectively. That way he can help Boba Fett more effectively, instead of dragging the sword around against the Pikes lol
I don't see why Luke Skywalker Jedi master, would train some brutish warrior how to use an ancient Jedi weapon affectively in a gang war.
@@codydog45 Handled the beskar spear really well. I get your point but wouldn't Luke be at a better disposition for a Mandalorian who helped Asoka in shutting down one of Thrawns operations, and also going out of his way to bring Grogu to him?
This episode CRANKED so much!! I am a critical rater, and still give it a 9.5 out of 10
When Pelly (?) says “Hey look everyone it’s Mando”, R5 gives a little “sigh” making me think of the scene in Little Rascal’s where Buckwheat says “Look my mom’s here” and one of the boys says “Whoopi”
There looks to be a similar story to King Arthur and Exalibur going on with Mando and the dark sabre
....or Elric and Stormbringer.
@@rhanlon70 I had to look that up. It does!
I think the analogy from the armourer about the weight of a saber in use is the best explanation we've had described all these years since SW been around.
We need the full Boba Fett/Mando theme remix, like right now.
Also I really love these videos, there's just something about Erik's enthusiasm that makes me look forward to them. Hope we get to see him geek out over the Obi Wan series in the future.
I hope the Ahsoka series ties in very heavily to Rebels, Clone Wars, (2008 AND 2003) Resistance and Mando/BOBF and also the Sequels and Obi-Wan and Prequels AND canon comics with hundreds of little OT Easter Eggs. And my movies.
I loved how at the end of episode 4 when they said they can hire help if you know where to look, it played mando’s theme
He's just a humble bounty hunter making his way across the galaxy too his adopted son!
this episode was pretty incredible. i rewatched several scenes multiple times, but that long take towards the beginning of the episode was insane!
Also, it's pretty sad imo that the best episode (by a long shot) is one that has nothing to do with Fett or the story Rodriguez was trying to weave. They just need to give it to BDH going forward, she's done a fantastic job with these series and the Star Wars universe
Absolutely. It is frankly beyond me why they'd give it Rodriguez. He has a terrible track record, only succeeding when he's doing hyper-stylized, hammy auteurish works.
It’s the best episode of BoB and mando and the episode is still below average. Just shows how terrible both shows really are
@@Rounderyathecruel do better then
@@Rounderyathecruel your opinions are hilarious, you should comment more so we can all have a good laugh every week.
The combination of Boba’s theme with Din’s theme gave me chills.
the darksaber might be given to grogu, as he will be like tarr visla "both mandalorian and jedi", idk seemed very much like foreshadowing to me.
Unlike Maul, Grogu probably wouldn't be interested in ruling clans of warriors whose ancestors fought his own kind in the past. Remember: Jedi aren't allowed attachments and ruling a world is a mighty BIG attachment!!!!
I kept on getting goosebumps throughout the episode
Mando's entrance to the theme fusion and even Pedro Pascal's name in the credits
Simply Amazing.
We technically don’t know the exact lineage of Paz Vizla, or if he is related to Pre directly or indirectly
I think the fact that Jon Favreau plays both is enough to confirm it for me
It would be interesting to know the exact origin of Paz Viszla
@@captaindc3889 simple vizla fucked someone made another vizla they fucked another person made another one and so on
Most likey paz is pre’s cousin
Watching the naboo starfighter brought me back to my childhood, what an awesome job bringing back starwars to what it deserve!
I just realized that liquid the the Armorer poured on the quench tank could be the said "living waters beneath the mines of Mandalore". Quenching is indeed a very important part of the forging process. And since beskar is no ordinary metal and originated from Mandalore, it only make sense that the quenching liquid should be of Mandalore as well.
Then he could jump in the tank to purify himself. I think that highly unlikely.
@@Sascha5 the journey is part of the redemption process. Otherwise, it would be just as easily as you said and every children of the watch could just commit the sin of removing their helmet everything time they so desire if the redemption was that easy.
Bet you he makes a ball from the armor for Grogu. He loved that silver ball in episode 1-2 season 2 I think.
0:07 NOT TRUE
Din is showing the complete opposite of Boba's story. Din is now MORE violent and even more reckless now than ever. He's hurting more now than ever after giving his son away. He's lost his ship which was his home for the most part. Then his old clan just kicked him out on the streets because he let his son see his face.
Throughout the story of Boba we've seen him go through a BIG change going from a loner to a leader while Din is even MORE ALONE now then ever.
"You can only get so far without a tribe..."
Yep. Mando needs a trustworthy tribe.
The whole thing about the force being interpreted differently by other cultures was referenced in visions. The one about the small tribe who worshipped the spirit of their planet, Magina.
Magina hurts
The back up gun Mando put in the lock box is the same shape as the liberator gun from ww2, dropped behind enemy lines. 45 caliber single shot!
Exactly like a liberator. Single shot came with 5? rounds and a wooden dowel to remove spent cartridge. Cost less than $2
Cool. You're the second person to point that out and none of the RUclips reviewers of the Star Wars episodes (including Rock Stars and Star Wars Meg) made even a hint of that observation. Great job.
this episode has got to be some of the best star wars ever made
Can’t help but think there is a connection between the prophecy of the return of the mythosaur and Boba Fett’s signet being a mythosaur...
Boba to lead them all!
Can't wait to see how Din and Grogu's father/son relationship make young Ben Solo jealous and send him ona path to the dark side when Din shows up at the Jedi Academy to give Grogu some presents and forehead kisses.
S1: Boba rides the Rancor as leader of Tatooine underworld. S2: Boba rides the Mythasaur as leader of Mandalorians.
I'm think the Mythasaur will rise again is a symbol that Boba may rise up and lead Mandalore. He does have it as his crest.
Plus the crest boba has is that of the first king of mandalore
Tons of Prequel Easter Eggs! Loved it!, I could almost hear Anakin while Din was flying around the planet. "I'll try spinning, that's a good trick"
I've been waiting for this. Best episode of "The Mandalorian" Season 2.5
That was a great metaphor about how they're taking elements from the prequels and sequels and showing us underneath the surface there are pretty cool stuff.
It was sad to see but love how Mando is no longer part of the creed...and i think because of the connection he had with Grogu and how the saber was heavy for him, i can see how he could potentially be a force user as well, just doesn't understand how to tap into it since he had followed the creed for so long
If the saber does have a sort of sentience Din won it now twice. Once from one who was a foe of Mandalore and once from one of royal mandalorian bloodlines who has legit family claims to the saber. And it seemed the saber was equally heavy and difficult for Visla if not more. Like it doesn't want anyone to wield it right now.
@@nunyabizniss4087 Sounds like it's around time to get some animal communion pointers from Ezra Bridger.
The creed has cast hom aside for now but he has yet to leave it. I'm guessing in season 3 we will see him complete his quest to be able to return but ultimately chose not too.

That seems very likely. And that decision will probably give him the clarity of mind and purpose to properly wield the Darksaber.
I honestly got up my chair and started dancing when the mandalorian song started playing in the credits
I loved seeing the Night of Thousand Tears through Mandalor eyes!!!
That one-and-done shot in the elevator doesn't need sets to be swapped in and out, it was all achieved with angles and the Stagecraft Volume. At most they hid the screens flickering with camera moves or flags to black out reflections. At best they scrolled the background to reflect the motion of the elevator.
Each set on the volume is still considered a set, with different props tables etc.
@@YodatheHobbit okay, but if you look at the start of the shot, the camera is facing away from where the bar and tables are. So no need to move anything.
Off topic: I want to see them do a Disney+ series with Donny Yen’s character from Rouge One.
Right, Chirrut and Baze were probably the best charters in the movie....besides Alan Tudyk as K-2SO that is lol
Bd's little happy dance is all I needed, honestly.
Also Jon fav, played pre visla which is a reference to Jon's influence on star wars by his creation of "the volume" through his expertise of pre-visualization techniques used in movie making. Which is why Jon first played pre visla in clone wars. And played pas visla in book of boba Fett, as in past(post) visualization.
I love how i expected the first little bit with him doing a bounty and his usual stuff as a catch up on what hes been doing since S2 ended and i expected to see him go to Tattoine and after like 15 minutes he would be with Boba and we carry on as we do with Boba's story, NOPE its a full Mandalorian Episode
Who else got a mini heart attack when mando fell of the bridge
OMG! I lost it at the hairy Jawa! 😂 Even Voss is trying not to laugh! 🤣 18:48
This was the best episode out of both tv shows. Pure amazement
Thrawn couldn't have ordered Mandalore's destruction. Sabine would have heard about that and left in Star Wars Rebels, and at the end, Thrawn disappeared with Ezra Bridger (and after Endor, Sabine and Ahsoka were still searching for them, Filoni confirmed they went into the unknown regions).
Also, it doesn't fit Thrawn's character to bomb innocent civilians (Palpatine ordered him to shell Lothal, so that doesn't count).
Maybe it was ezra, Maybe while out in the unknown regions he turned to the dark side and took over thrawns place and has been just useing his name.
It would make some sense no body nows whats in the unknown regions he could have found something dark that twisted him
But who knows this is just a crazy idea
The ring place is also similar to the city of sigil, a staple of starjammer dnd campaigns.
I think this episode while not having Boba directly I believe he was a huge part of it as it is he who will be the lone mythasaur to rise up from nothing and reforge Mandalore.
The only problem is that he isn't alone. Though that does make sense.
That fits Din way more tho?
@@woohoo1849 Might be. I guess we’ll see.
This episode was chronologically parallel to where we currently stand in Boba Fett's narrative, and Fennec Shand dropped by to link Mando and Boba together going into the next episode.
I just watched this episode today. It’s basically The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 1 and I’m all for it.
At this point BOBF is like the extended chapter in the story of the Mandalorian
I think Favreau and Filoni (or Favloni as ive chosen to refer to them) are just telling a bigger story than can fit in one series. I think we should not be looking at these as separate stories but rather as a whole story being told piece by piece...Favloni just has to use different “series”
Great Point 👍!
@@johnosullivan1480 I've had that opinion since it was announced after the credits of "The Mandalorian" Season 2. The "Book of Boba Fett" is a book in the story of "The Mandalorian". A stopgap and fleshing out of an OG character before the continuation of the grander story on a bigger stage. That being, Season 3 of Mando and...(a movie)
@@alittlecreepywhenyou I think it’s even bigger than the Mando...I think that “series” was the jumping off point for shifting the focus onto the bigger picture and multiple different “series” are all going to be telling the broader story.
That BD droid tippy-tapping after Mando's thank you was adorable!
best episode yet!! the canyon brought back so much nostalgia 😃
