It is no longer a myth. Now, it's a Factosaur.
I can't believe they got a real Mythosaur to film for this episode
Somehow got him to fit in the budget
George Lucas: “I didn’t script any of it. A wild Rancor wandered onto the set and I just kept the cameras rolling as Mark Hamill killed it with a rock…”
I can't believe Steven Spielberg killed a real Triceratops.
And it was busy filming another movie, so it was nearly impossible to schedule!
Right ? I thought they were extinct !
this episode was amazing as soon as they got to the living waters I literally thought "wouldn't it be amazing if theres just an actualy Mythosaur here" and holy moly I'm so excited about what comes next
haha i had the exact same thing but mine was as soon as din got dragged down i was like i bet thats a mythosaur
If Din Djarin’s does ride the Mythasour how is he going to unite Mandalore on the different planets. Can the Mythasour travel in space just like the Purrgol?
I was right there with you I thought it would jump out the water though
@@multicreativeartist6579 does he have to? I mean Din has the Dark Saber which should be enough to unite the Mandalorians (if he could wield it correctly) but if word gets around that he is riding THE creature that every mandalorian knows that (should) be the nail in the coffin. I'm very excited to see what they will do. I still want a little mando family with Din, Bo and Grogu.
Deez nuts
My favorite part was Grogu taking the initiative and saving Din!
He didn’t take initiative and saved Din. He tried. He failed. Plus, it’s hardly special. I’d try to protect my dad if I had the Force, too.
@@RealJustINRVA Din wouldn’t have survived if Grogu hadn’t of flown back on his own to retrieve Bo Katan
@@RealJustINRVA He escaped alive thanks to his abilities and returned with help. I would call that saving Din.
Didn't Din say, go get Bo?
@@calebbrown9091 he did
This episode was very much Star Wars for me. The action, the fights, the space travel, even the creatures felt stopmotion-ish. I’m sure they’re not, but they felt like that and I enjoyed it very much cuz they reminded me of the creatures in the original trilogy.
Yup. For me, Andor isn't really StarWars. This is.
@@RK-ck6pl ummm... I enjoyed Andor, it felt like a more gritty and dark version of Star Wars. The mandalorian is a more "clone wars" style Star Wars. I like both.
@@braedynhoward3644 I kind of like it. But it isn't really Star Wars. It's a drama. Star Wars is an adventure with space magic droids and aliens.
One of the things that occurred to me, and I'm curious to see if they continue to play with it is this: Din Djarin literally took a leap of faith in the mines and nearly died as a result. Bo-Katan had to save him. The Watch's strict adherence to their religion is symbolically killing them, and Bo-Katan's more practical approach is what may save them.
Could be. Could also be that there’s something to their dogma, hinted at by the mythosuar.
When Bo-Katan read the plaque right before Mando went into the water I literally thought to myself “We’re going to see the Mythosaur aren’t we?”
definitely
Sure u did.
Really? I thought they was going to bath together and fall in love and then I was like oh of course not that’s silly 👀
Took you that long?
I have a feeling they are going to go after the helmet of Mandalore. How cool would a vision to Grogu from the mythosaur be.
This is the way
That is very deep lore if they go down that method. However I feel the darksaber now takes the place of the Mnadálor Mask.
@@rossanderson5815 But imagine the cultural significance to surviving Mangalorian's if the Mandalore had the saber AND the helmet. It would give them hope and help rally them together to begin rebuilding their civilization.
that would be amazing
I don't think grogu could rule Mandalore, nor would it really make any sense despite vouching for grogu
As soon as the Mythosaur appeared I was like "That looks like a Mythosaur" somehow didn't make the connection until a second later where it was facing directly at the camera
I have the Lego Naboo starfighter and it has a storage area in the front of the cockpit where you can put Mando's saber and jet pack. That's probably where Grogu puts his floating pod.
Same and probably
I was curious about where it went
But where would IG have gone?
@Joe Joe I reckon there may be enough space in there if you folded up IG.
That's just a Lego playability feature so you can store pieces. 😭
2 Things to note:
1. Bo Katan seemed much more masterful of the darksaber with almost no struggle wielding it. Hopefully Din Learns to Use it or at the very least finds his place to allow it to be used in proper hands
2. Din got his ass beat this episode 😂 First the Robo Alien, then immediately falling hundreds of feet into the living waters
I noticed that too - Din has a rough episode 😂
Did Bo Katan give the dark saber back to Din?
Din lost the sabre to the grievous type creature, Bo beat the creature. So shouldn’t the saner be hers now.
Saber
@@josephbrown9900 that’s what I thought too! I was so relieved that it would be over now, but they didn’t address it!
Grogus pod is stored under the N1, you can see it come out in the premier
Crazy prediction: Din will learn to use the saber with the help of a jedi. Could it be Ezra? Or the one that saved Grogu?
I really want it to be windu but it won’t be windu
@@water4826 windu is dead
@@senderoverland who knows he could be alive
Ezra has no business in being in this series. If he was going to return, it would be in the Ahsoka series where it make sense. Also I don't think it's the jedi way of training someone, in the jedi arts of lightsaber forms, for the sole purpose of gaining power. Like what must have happen for it to make sense that Ezra would train a cold-blooded bounty hunter like Din to use a saber that literally represents raw power over people? Din will hence most likely learn to use the saber by Bo-Katan or the armorer.
Quinlan Vos? We know he’s still alive and we haven’t seen him in live action yet 🤔
I didn't think that the Mythosaur is what pulled Mando down into the water. I think he just sunk straight down after he stepped off that last step (beskar is clearly heavy). He took his jetpack off before he went in and Bo used hers to find him. I think it just shows his blind dogma isn't as helpful as Bo's actual experience
False. it was the mythosaur that pulled Din down into the water. And he wasnt fully recovered after he lost a lot of his blood to the captor's pump.
@@chadwildclayfancwc5753 you have any supporting evidence it was the Mythosaur that pulled him down?
He would not have sunk that fast if that was the case.
Same as the other mandalorians in the 1st episode of the season. When fighting the alligator monster, whenever they went under water, another mandalorian would have to pick them up. Everytime.
@@chadwildclayfancwc5753 it wasn't tho, bo katan says it in the next episode, the steps broke of due to the bombing
Loved this episode. Love the visuals and Bo. Can't wait for the rest and hope to get Moff next episode and Christopher Lloyd As Hondo.
Always imagined Antonio banderras as hondo myself.
@@danieloleary5214 Solid pick but Lloyd I think will nail the weirdness and personality better.
Christopher Lloyd as Hondo would be amazing!
@@gratebritton Hope to also get Migs back.
Jim Cummings, who voiced Hondo in animation, actually did the singing for Christopher Lloyd as Rasputin in the movie Anastasia.
This series is perfection. Pure perfection.
I love that Mando narrates everything to Grogu. He's teaching him the Mandalorian ways and teaching him general knowledge about space and galaxies.
Anyone think Din could be force sensitive?
I think that would be a waste, honestly. The Force is overrated. :p
I think if he was force sensitive, it would be on the level of someone like Han Solo, who can’t use the force, but still has a stronger connection to it than the average being.
No
He's may have an above average connection to it which will probably be why he will become proficient with the dark saber and, big leap here, will have some sort of connection with the mythosaur
Hopefully he's not. The force theme is overplayed by now.
This episode was brilliant. Very curious to see how Bo Katan's arc unfolds...
I think Din has to accept his destiny of the one to unite mandalorians and the n he’ll connect with the sabre instantly
I agree with you ❤ he will be the next king
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
@@rossanderson5815
Is this LOTR ?
@@MuhammadAli90 Yes, but it fits perfectly.
My take, I think the Mythosaur was actually watching over Din. I DO NOT think it was the Mythosaur that actually pulled Din under. But something else. And actually, the Mythosaur had vanquished whatever it was that took Din, and was guarding over him waiting for Bo to rescue him. Notice, that once Bo and Din were headed back to the surface, the Mythosaur turned away, as if acknowledging it's job of guarding was done.
I dont understand why people struggle with this. Gravity and his metal armor pulled him under.
@@collegeboykeith Not out of the realm of possibility. There was no turbulence in the water before Din went down, so it's entirely possible the steps simply ended and he stepped off into the depths. But, Star Wars has always had a proclivity for having monsters in the deep.. so.. I doubt they'll settle for the simple explanation.
@@collegeboykeith he sunk that fast that deep? unlikely imo.
@@glrider100 if so, that’s a little sad and funny haha 😂 Din just steps off the edge an- whoops!
@@braedynhoward3644 bo katan litteraly says it in the next episode, the steps broke of
Too many Goosebumps in the episode. I felt so thrilled during my first watch.
Also it would be great if you could make a separate video about that creature in water.
I think it’s cool Gorgu gets taught by all the greats Mando, Bokatan, Luke, and maybe Fett this kid is going to be bad ass
I also caught the parallels to General. Grievous and "The Thing" with that eyeball cyborg creature! I'm so proud of myself 😢 😅
Absolutely, a Kaleesh
It reminds me heavily of SAR from lost in space
Seeing Mandalore post purge was amazing, then Bo-Katan weilding the dark saber with ease, then the mythosaur!! Holy crap!
The production value this season has been on another level!
Getting some crazy Mines of Moria vibes with this episode. It's even called The Mines of Mandalore. Follows a similar pattern, and then the Balrog at the very end. But hey, I'm all for it. Retelling LOTR stories in Star Wars? Hell yeah.
There's no reason to think they're deliberately copying LOTR. The whole cave thing has been in mythology which clearly predates LOTR. If anything, they were drawing inspiration from Joseph Campbell and this is the "innermost cave" which makes total sense considering the themes being touched on with reclaiming their civilization, re-establishing his status as a Mandalorian etc. They enter the cave and find the heart of the journey, then return to society with the ultimate boon having been reborn as a superior being. Plot structure wise, this should actually be toward the end of the arc, but still it seems obvious that is what they are referencing.
Gee... where else would you find mines?
Durins Bane the Balrog was frickin awesome. The standoff with Gandalf and the Balrog was probably the most epic shit I have ever seen.
Mr. Voss we need you now more than ever to solve these Mandalorian mysteries. I have faith that you will succeed. This is the way.
This episode had just blown the doors off of the Mandalorian myths. I can’t wait to see who ends up riding that Mythosaur.
I feel like what they've spent 2 seasons setting up is Grogu helping Din tame the Mythosaur. Looking all the way back to how he helped him with the Mudhorn and the list goes on
My thoughts exactly. The rancor was an opening act. Grogu gonna go touch his tusk and then curl up under his claws and tap.
Grogu is Mandalore
Glad to see you post on the day of the episode
Yah when the Mythasuar appeared i literally screamed out HOLY SHIT!!!!
The monster that kidnapped Din could maybe be a Geonosion? The species that originally came up with the blueprints to the Death Star. Love y’all ❤
I really want more lore on that insectoid like was it a mandalorian who kept himself alive? Its a human like eye chunk in that jar too. So interesting
I was thinking the same thing! There has to be some more info out there on it. Really interesting creature and it must have been more biological at some point, humanoid or not cyborgs are not just born
I'm wondering if it's a Kaleesh like General Grievous, had a lot of similarities, definitely a cool addition
What was it going to use Din's blood for. Nourishment?
I was thinking general greavous race aswell
@spartan- -64 i think so. It looked like its tubes needed some refreshment so he probably siphons blood to live
Your analysis of these episodes are always amazing! It’s a constant reminder of how vast and richly detailed the Star Wars universe is. Thanks for the videos!
i mean, in rebels Canan stated that the force can manifest in lots of ways throughout the galaxy (talking about the religion of Zeb’s people).
I think it’s possible that the mandalorian creed has actual “magic” in it
It's a creed, not a power.
I think the armorer could be force sensitive.
This series is getting better and better. Love it. When those bombs landed in Bo’s living room, I bet Rhodey would say “Boooom looking for this?!” 😂
Best visuals of any episode I've seen thus far.
This season is off to an amazing start and I can't wait to see what happens next!
“And they call it a mine!!! A MINE!!!”
"This is not a mine, it's a tomb"
I can’t believe how good this episode was! It was a masterpiece! The Armorer definitely knew of the mythosaur and wanted to see if Din could unite the Mandalorians
Best mandalorian episode since the beginning of season 2!
Watching this to find out if Din sunk because his armor was too heavy (not realizing the living waters was a lake and not a pool)
or if the Mythosaur actually pulled him down
I wonder if they'll make it where Grogu does in fact speak like Master Yoda hinting at a possibility that Yoda and Grogu had met before order 66
I’m sure they met, 2 creatures of a very rare species in the same massive jedi temple building surely crossed paths
& when one is the Jedi grandmaster who taught lots of younglings, yea they probably know each other
Remember that Yaddle, the third member of the species we've seen, spoke using normal grammar.
It's at the very least my headcanon that speak like this, Yoda does, to mess with uptight Jedi, mm?
@@00andJoe I remember someone said Yoda talked like that to pay tribute to his former master, but funny explanation is just being a troll lol
I would not forgive them
This episode was amazing I loved it, and I can’t wait to see the next episode when it airs!
IG units were not Imperial era exactly. They were used well before the Clone Wars and were even the basis of the Magnaguard units that General Grievous and Count Dooku had with them as Escorts
It’s funny to know that mando literally fell to the bottom of the mines. He was week and didn’t have his jet pack so when he went into the water he didn’t realize how heavy his suit actually is and just plummeted to the bottom
week?
@@goodputin4324 I think they mean “weak”
I was expecting the "living waters in the mine" episode to be this seasons finale.
Me too, I was totally expecting the entire season to be Din's journey to redemption when the Armorer told him the only way back from removing your helmet was to bathe in the living waters, back in Mandalorian season 2.5.
Same! And I was hoping we *might* see a mythosaur, but probably just the bones of one, at the end of this season or the next, but maybe never.
Glad to be the first person to comment. This is the Way.
nope
Who cares lmao geez
This is the way
This is the way
@@godreap3820 I was just having fun. No need to be so serious.
Bo katan was baptized in the living waters too...wonder if that's significant?
I love how Grogu utilizes his Jedi agility to do those flips. So adorable
I think it’s worth noting that in a similar episode of the clone wars when a Republic Venator crashes with Anakin, Ashoka, and a few others on board, anakin says the same, “be… behind you” to ashoka when he’s injured much like Din does to Grogu
Also the planet they crashed on was the Lehrmans’ planet
Katie Sackhoff is excellent!
The CGI in this is better than quantummania 😂
This episode was CRAZY! Watching The Mythosaurus was the best part!! Bo Katan was OP!!! Can't wait for the next episode!!!!
This was my favorite episode so far!
It’s a great episode but I kinda want Din to get a handle on the dark saber soon.
One of the many channels out there to actually posit great questions about the Armorers motive.
Can't help but think of Frieza whenever Grogu is flying around in that pod.
Mando just couldn’t catch a break this episode
Seeing the mythosaur reminded me of the Zillow beast!
Love the music bed used in this. Super nice touch. Plus I wanna hear that track!
The whole Luke deal was only too progress Grogu to flip status, & I'm good with it 🎉. ... GREAT two episode start 💯
mythosaur is now Cannon. we love to see it.
This episode was amazing but I want to know more about Din's capture. Like is it a Grevious Organic and Cybernetic or is it what I like to think in my head cannon as a Nerfed Transformer. I mean the head detaching, that is just Frenzy from Micheal Bay's TF1. I just love the design of this thing and how it keeps changing and coming back. I want to see more or learn more about it/them if there are more out their.
Ofc I was hyped as hell from the Mythosaur and can't wait for next episode to see how we go from here!
The living waters thing was intense. Was just wondering what would go wrong and getting nervous then let my damn guard down because of the feels!!
I love that the Grevious looking creature reminds me of the robot AMEE from Red Planet 😂
I was shitting bricks with how cool that Grievous style alien was but a fricken Mythosaur? This is only episode 2 and its epic
My boy Din had Bo-Katan hella moist😩
I have a feeling Bo Katan is going to turn into one of Star Wars’ most interesting characters. Which says a lot, cause Star Wars has some cool folks!
Grogu will be the one to tame the mythosaur. Creating a situation where Grogu will be the heir apparent to the title of Mandalore and Din will be his Regent
More like Din & Bo tame it with the help of Grogu.
armorer: so have you redeemed yourself in the living waters?
din: there was a f*ckin mythosaur there, i could've gotten myself killed.
armorer: this is the way.
As with most I'm the galaxy, the force connects all, the Mythosaur being present in this moment reminds me how the Lothwolves were a re constant presence with Esra and Kanan
I can see that Bo-Katan is looking at Din in a certain way 👀
I see it as a sign of respect. But who knows what Favreau and Filoni store for us.
@@deedee2455 Nah. from the get go Bo-katan always had a some what of a interest in Mando. Theirs a strong possibility that Mando and Bo-katan will rule Mandalore
I ship them
In The contraband book “tales of the bounty hunters” ig 88 connected to the second Death Star to gain control of it just seconds before it exploded. At least that what I remember of that story.. thanks for the recap!!
Superb analysis. Well-met!
Great video as ever, did anyone else think the Captor with that creepy eye was The Durge? I know Anakin force threw him into a sun, but the resemblance was uncanny! 10:20
I thought Savage Opress. He was killed by Palpatine on Mandalore and it mirrors how Maul survived in Clone Wars.
Uncanny? what kinda crack u smoking brotha
@@murrayl1042 But there's no human element at all. Just some weird robot thing and it's uncertain if there is even a biological component to it. No reason to think it's Savage.
@@VogtTD Well the eye looked pretty biological, and it was all fleshy around it. Also, if it was just a droid, why would it need the blood it was draining from Din?
@@VogtTD It definitely has biological components… it has a biological eye and weird fleshy tendrils, and it was collecting blood and plasma for a reason.
There was nasty fleshy stuff all over its lair too… it’s gross.
The graveyard analogy works if Din is the one who knows all these stories but Bo-Katan is the one who actually knew the people buried there.
I think that robot creature could have been the remains of general grevious. As it gets out of its mech at 19:00 in the episode it sounds like it said “general kenobi” also the way it coughs
Not just that to be honest, the shoulder pads are one of the parts untouched and its EXACTLY the same as the grievous pads I think it’s well confirmes it’s him just off that the body if you look into deep enough it’s the exact same in the areas seen past the enhancements
@Camlot.Patets if not the same race that grevious was, thats what I thought when I first saw him.
Pretty sure it's the remains of Admiral Trench from the Clone Wars. The spider shape of the large machine and the way it talks make me think it's him.
I'm not sure if it's been suggested but the "one eyed" droid in episode 2 is possibly an assassin droid used by death watch that has been modified into some kind of life support or body modification, possibly as a means to survive life on Mandalore after the purge.
If you watch Clone Wars S2:E13 the assassin droids not only have similar mechanical parts, specifically when considering how much the spider like machine 's legs resembles the assassin droids, but most important, both speak the same language. Another thing to consider is how the assassin droids in the Clone Wars use dead clone bodies as a trap, similar to how the spider like machine uses the Mandalorian helmet.
Thoughts?
Those are some great questions. Mr. Voss, you never cease to amaze.
I have a feeling that Din and Bo will become a power couple
Callin it now: Grogu force links with the Mythosaur and they become besties
13:51 that kinda reminds me from transformers when frenzy, also lost a body while using his head four legs.
This episode was so fire
This Is The Way!
This truly is the year of Pedro Pascal, *this is the way!*
The pod probably has a spot underneath where the droid pit is for storage
Grogu's pod may be an escape pod type of deal for the ship like if Mando knows grogu needs to leave the ship in space he can shoot him off somewhere safe and load it back in as well
Any food for a giant beast to sustain itself on would have been extinct so I conclude the Mythosaur needs nothing but that special water
I swear on my name and the names of the ancestors, that I shall walk the way of the mand’alor, and the words of the creed shall be forever forged in my heart. This is the way
Loving this season!
I was surprised Grogu didn't summon the Dark Saber when attempting to free Den from the cage.
When I watched the scene where that cyborg's head crawled away, I literally said, "You gotta be f***ing kidding." A quote from The Thing.
would be pretty cool if bo katan went back with mando to see the armourer
Awesome episode, could you see Bo-Katan and Mando hooking up? They could make for a great power couple. BTW Grogu is going to be Super OP by the time he grows up.
Great episode
was it that giant monster that's supposed to have pulled Din all the way down to the bottom? because I don't get how that's supposed to have happened to him so quickly. like otherwise I can see him being initially spooked that he ran out of solid ground to walk on underneath the water, but he should've been able to simply adjust to that
I thought this myself. The only logical explanation I can think of for how quickly he sank and the fact he was passed out when bo katan got to him, is the mythosaur dragged him down and he's hit his head at the bottom of the pool. I can't think of any other explanation
He's wearing a full set of armor and trustingly stepped into a cavern opened up by the bombing. In reality he probably wouldn't have sank That fast, but he would have sank fast enough to lose consciousness without a pressurised helmet.
It had to be the creature that dragged him down. Perhaps the creature didn’t “want” Din after all. Maybe it knows he’s a Mandalorian or isn’t a threat, hence why the creature didn’t fight Bo Katan.
He likely also lost a fair amount of blood to the captor's pump
Lol he walk into deep water without his jetpack and a full set of armor of course he sank to the bottom
Pedro saying it's good but it can be better, that a good twist 😅🤣🤣🤣
Another extra i thought was cool is that Din has been teaching Grogu navigation, and Grogu actually uses that knowledge to tell R5 where Bo Katan is
so general grievous is dead right? but liked that eye nd the four-arm droid body gives me serious Grievous vibes. I am the only one that thought that?
I actually thought it was him 💀
@@moreece1713 same I was convinced, then they just killed him with no explanation as to what it was. Very confused.
really good questions at the end
