The Mandalorian Spoilers

[shy olive]

Imdb rating of each episode this season

[buoyant marten]

The fact that it still got a 6.9 (I assume out of 10)

[shy olive]

Bots and shills. You should see twitter

[stiff flicker]

kinda like the detective stuff

reminded me a bit of detroit become human

[stiff flicker]

an enjoyable filler episode

[celest plover]

yeah

[pine harbor]

Society is doomed

[floral bolt]

6.9

Best episode

[shy olive]

69 Lizzo

[frank quarry]

Ashoka's overuse within these past years is a very major concern for me. Ashoka has a very good overall arc and story that afaik (haven't watched Rebels yet) ended neatly in Rebels S2 but then they didn't have the guts to kill her off

Like WHAT is she doing there in the New Republic era, where was she during the Galactic Civil war????

[shy olive]

Hanging out with Palutena owl bitch

[frank quarry]

Honestly the whole Ashoka show is just like
What's the point?
Why does it matter what Thrawn's doing when we've already seen what the imperial remnants become and they've already been busting their asses off trying to justify Palpaclone (Bad Batch, Mando).

Is he gonna threaten the (already disarming for some god forsaken reason) New Republic for like 3 days and then Ashoka and Ezra stop him?

[gentle ether]

she’s trying to find ezra

wherever thrawn is, ezra probably is too

[round vector]

different remnant

bozo's need to realise thrawn and the actual imperial remnant are two different factions

ahsoka will continue rebels, mando will continue mando his story and meanwhile continue showing the forming of the first order and the new republics failure, and bad bitches will continue showing the cloning

[shy olive]

Because there's still spectrum shills to still try and milk money from. It doesn't have to make sense or be good in order to impress these people

[buoyant marten]

And peakdor will continue being better than all of them

[pine harbor]

They better advertise the shit out of season 2 for Andor

Andor should be getting mando hype

[stiff flicker]

too bad bad batch is shit and im not gonna watch another show with ahsoka

[round vector]

ok cope

i do not care what you do or do not watch

[plush wind]

Based Jim

[floral bolt]

*ashoka

[stiff flicker]

assnotokay

[stiff flicker]

yes you do

otherwise you wouldnt have said cope

[round vector]

i say cope to all you bozo's stupid shit so

[floral bolt]

Average bf2 server user

[stiff flicker]

why so mad

[pine harbor]

Hahaha

What is a veteran orange

[rich ocean]

Fuck this shit

I hate bokatan

I have hated this character

For years

It’s the mandolorian

Not the bo katan

[round vector]

fun fact they are all mandalorian

[gentle ether]

no

more advertising means less money into the show itself

[pine harbor]

🤔

[buoyant marten]

“Um akchually the show’s titled the Mandalorian and not Din Djarin 🤓”

Din’s been marketed and conveyed as the main character of the show since before S1 episode 1

Mfers everywhere acting like we don’t know there’s more than 1 Mandalorian

[shy olive]

He has openly praised everything Disney Star Wars with the exception of Andor and maybe R1. Long term troll. Best not to entertain him.

[round vector]

Doesnt mean it onlyfocusses on him

[floral bolt]

when Din is The Mandalorian tho

at least that was his name until his real name was revealed

[lofty fractal]

gUyS iTs kAthaLeeN KenNedYs FauLt!!!!

[floral bolt]

Real

[teal tinsel]

weird I got this article

[shy olive]

"The Mandalorian S3 is complete garbage, but it's ok because actors from other stuff were in this week's episode"

[teal tinsel]

The Cameolorian

[rich ocean]

💀

I love star wars

And I will support and like anything Star Wars

But this ain’t it

Bo katan season 1

https://tenor.com/view/yippee-happy-celebration-joy-confetti-gif-25557730

[thin elbow]

That pirate Vane or whatever his face is called is in Skeleton Crew

But no one here is gonna watch that cause its just about some group of kids

[shy olive]

Tf is Skeleton Crew

[remote vortex]

@gentle etherton crew

[remote vortex]

anyway next eps first 7 mins gonna be wild

not sure if anyone read the description

[round vector]

[round vector]

well ye it has to since only 2 eps left

[round vector]

thrawn being with the imperial remnant is a L

[remote vortex]

why

wait no hold up

yeah

[round vector]

cus the chiss ascendancy

[remote vortex]

i read gideon isntead of thrawn

[round vector]

and like he only joined them to gain power but now the empire is gone to dust so like whats the point

would rather have him be his own thing and then gideon be with the FO

also this better tells us what happens to sloan and the eclipse

[remote vortex]

idk well see

[gentle ether]

yes, but maybe they have a falling out in ahsoker show

[round vector]

maybe but them being together in general is meh

[gentle ether]

yea

[round vector]

would have liked it way more if thrawn rebuilt himself and then went back to the chiss with his remnant instead of going back to the reg imps

wonder if we will even get anything about the ascendency

[gentle ether]

are those books canon?

[round vector]

the new ones yes

[thin elbow]

You mean they are canon until they aren't canon anymore

Like the rest of the comics

Even tho they put some work into his canon books I could see them not giving a shit and making their own shit up

[buoyant marten]

Bro they don’t even care about sticking to the continuity of books that are canon. They are already doing whatever they want

[lofty fractal]

This show will continue to be horrible but in the last minute of the final episode, Thrawn will show up and people will claim its the best show ever regardless of how bad the episode is

[buoyant marten]

But those will be the same people who have been claiming all the previous episodes were good as well

[hollow pendant]

the taliban didnt like the new episode

[still bramble]

Why is the taliban watching the Mandalorian

Also if you don’t like this show you agree with the Taliban it seems

[plush wind]

Lmao

[gentle ether]

damn it, they found a way to cancel us

[thin elbow]

that's literally what i said

or tried to say if it came out wrong or you interpreted it wrong

[floral bolt]

True

[shy olive]

If only they went against ST continuity

[still bramble]

I’d rather they do it live action anyway tbh

[floral bolt]

Taliban+

[pine harbor]

😭

[hollow pendant]

Christopher Lloyd in back to the future was a Man in a Delorian

and now hes appeared in the mandalorian

[raven sedge]

I'm late but good episode

[raven sedge]

I made this because that meme reminded me of it

[plush wind]

Pipes falling in different languages?

[raven sedge]

What

[raven sedge]

Oh

[snow perch]

Finally the episode we’ve all been waiting for

Only took two decent episodes, one disastrous episode and three ok episodes

[edgy verge]

In other words this season is shit

[snow perch]

yeah only ep7 knows exactly the shit we should be actually seeing

ep2 and ep5 are average episodes in the previous two seasons

4 and 1 are what we would call fillers in the previous two seasons, but somehow they are not the worst, 6 is

3 i don't know this is probably andor's weird grandson

Here's a bit of hope that Gideon will win over the Mandalorians in this season. This is the only thing that will redeem the mostly shitshow we've been seeing so far

Assume that is the case, then this season's structure is so Obi wan like. The last two episodes are good/great, everything before is either a little trashy or down to the bottom garbage

[pine harbor]

Episode 5 and this one are entertaining but clunky still. I think there good though. Every other episode was dick

[rich ocean]

not happening

[edgy vortex]

Going to be honest that was pretty mid

The first 2/3rds were great but the last 1/3rd felt super rushed and lazy

[thin elbow]

dude its thrawns second in command guy from the books, he looks pretty good in live action

and is that fat one Zing?

[rich ocean]

fuck it, calling it that phasma was one of the mandalorians, they'd deffinetly do that

[thin elbow]

if War Lord Zing is in this I will start ballin

[snow perch]

yeah I’m not gonna get mad if that doesn’t happen

What can you expect from the dream castle company?

[rich ocean]

if that happens ill be pissed, itll be sequel writing all over again

[snow perch]

Wanna think a bs plot armor that will help the main bois and girls best Gideon again?

Or I don’t know some Ex Machina

Oh wait…

[rich ocean]

lol if anything the new republic will come in

[snow perch]

YEAH

[edgy vortex]

I can already predict the next episode: The fleet will be almost destroyed but saved by a few NR fighters at the last second, Gideon will escape with Din, the praetorians will die like bitches (at least they killed someone)

[snow perch]

That’s what I am thinking

[rich ocean]

or that one republic dude and zeb

forget that guys name

[thin elbow]

Him and Zeb single handily save the day

[rich ocean]

fucking TRoS all over again

[thin elbow]

Welp now little Vizla got no dad

rip

[pine harbor]

Republicans and boba legion comb to the rescue

[rich ocean]

fuck that kid, couldnt dodge a big ass bird

[pine harbor]

Fr

[thin elbow]

what a way for the Vizla's to be remembered

[pine harbor]

He ugly too

[snow perch]

Man if New Republic will come in and save the day what is the point of that piece of Beskar on the Lamda shuttle?

Wait

[edgy vortex]

Tbf at least Paz went down fighting

[rich ocean]

looooooooooool

[snow perch]

Maybe they’ll save the day, but fuck them in the ass later

Oh fuck me this will be how season 4 is going

[rich ocean]

you really think they would make the new republic look bad

they will teddy bear the fuck outa them

[snow perch]

Who teddy bear who I’m confused a bit

[rich ocean]

the new republic

[edgy vortex]

Tbf they wrote themselves into a hole with the NR

[snow perch]

Oh I think I wasn’t clear on what I meant in the OG message. I’m saying NR will kick Gideon’s ass but because of that Beskar shit Mandalorians will get fucked as well

And that will kick us off into season 4 lol

[rich ocean]

what would be neat would be thrawn showing up ang making a deal of some kind or decimating giddeons forces. could also see ashoka and that rebels girl (i forgor name 💀)

[snow perch]

Sabine?

[rich ocean]

yes

could see the whole crew

[snow perch]

I’m 100% not gonna expect Thrawn show up

[rich ocean]

lol its happening

this season was half marketing for Ashoka

[snow perch]

What’s the point of him showing up though

He’s being mentioned

Isn’t that enough?

[edgy vortex]

Generate media buzz

[rich ocean]

nothing just marketing and PlOt

its textbook disney

[edgy vortex]

That’s all SW is now, name drop shit and underdeliver

[rich ocean]

^

[snow perch]

Welp if that really is the case, I guess I will see Giancarlo again in the Boys S4

[rich ocean]

yeah giddeon is dead af next episode

[snow perch]

😢

[rich ocean]

outlived his marketing purposes time for a new baddie

time for thrawn

[snow perch]

😭

Fuck you dream castle corp

[rich ocean]

yes but i do like how they are trolling the fuck outta desantis (wont say anything else)

[thin elbow]

Those 3 fuckin murked Vizla tho i was like damn

[trail lion]

Bokatan forgor she had the darksaber or what

[vague solar]

Micheal jackson in mIB?

[trail lion]

hee hee

[celest plover]

Damn

That episode was awesome

Easily better than the shit we've been given for the past few weeks.

[remote vortex]

god fucking damn

after blue balling me so hard

they did it

[frank quarry]

Finally

Some good fucking food

[celest plover]

ikr

[frank quarry]

I did not expect to see Pellaeon on screen so soon

[celest plover]

which one was he?

[frank quarry]

The old guy with the stache

[celest plover]

screenshot??

[frank quarry]

I can't

The app won't let me do it

[celest plover]

bruh

don't bother

I see who it is now

[buoyant marten]

Why did grogu stop the fight between paz and that other guy

[remote vortex]

cause heart of gold

🥺

[buoyant marten]

Worse still why did bo-katan agree with him

They should've let the two fight it out smh

[round vector]

cus grogu and bo want mandalorians to be better

[buoyant marten]

Nah look I enjoyed the episode and it was the best of the season but mandalorians are supposed to duke it out honourably 💀 stopping the fight just leaves the issues unresolved

But it was just a minor gripe in an otherwise sick ep

[plush wind]

I enjoyed this ep

[round vector]

there's no issues, thats why grogu stopped them and why bo said he was right, mando's will throw a fucking fit just cus someone isnt part of their clan

or follows their way

[plush wind]

I pull knives on people who cheat at chess too tbf

[round vector]

well yea ur bri'ish

[plush wind]

True

[remote vortex]

I feel like the mando guys are clones

They got too many

[light karma]

I find it very symbolic that they dug up IG-11 and now they're having Grogu pilot his corpse

[remote vortex]

Very

[plush wind]

Why couldn't they have given him more speech options than y/n

Grogu's reaction is my reaction whenever we pilot big robots in video games tbf

[remote vortex]

ok

What other options of dialogue would you give him

Probably a keyboard actually

https://tenor.com/view/cat-crazy-cat-keyboard-cat-fast-gif-5753018

[plush wind]

Yeah

Give him a protocol droid chip or whatever

Text to speech

[teal tinsel]

Greef Cargo Gulp shitto the 3rd

What if it’s just a bunch of snokes

[round vector]

Snokes are on exegol

[remote vortex]

Jim do you really think they’re considering comics

[round vector]

Its akso in the movie so

[teal tinsel]

They are literally on Navarro in the first season or whatever

[round vector]

Just clones

Not snokes

Gideon is trying to clone himself most likely

They wouldnt have palp clones in such a place

[teal tinsel]

How do you know

You his PA?

[remote vortex]

He wrote the star war

[teal tinsel]

He is George lukass

[remote vortex]

George lackass

[teal tinsel]

George sellout

[buoyant marten]

J@ckass

[remote vortex]

Ok

[remote vortex]

Why isnt this imperial remnant connected to palpatine though

[teal tinsel]

They probs aren’t trusted enough

Or maybe enough members are

Like Hux

To keep the rest in line

[remote vortex]

I’d trust thrawn

[teal tinsel]

I note that only two imperials seemed to have all the resources

Hux and Padmella

Or whatever the fuck his name is

[remote vortex]

Werent the rest imperials

[teal tinsel]

Yes

[remote vortex]

Ok

[teal tinsel]

But clearly they aren’t as powerful

[remote vortex]

No shit

[teal tinsel]

They are just imperial remnants

So they get to sit in on holo meetings

[remote vortex]

Shadow council

[teal tinsel]

I do hope thrawn is in control

[remote vortex]

They say they want to replace him

[teal tinsel]

Especially if he like kills Gideon

[remote vortex]

So yeah

[teal tinsel]

Or puts Gideon in his place

[remote vortex]

I hope he comes back with the chimeara and bombs everyone on mandalore

[round vector]

Cus palpatine cloning himsekf would alert the entire republic and luke would go on the hunt

[round vector]

Cus snoke will take it over later

[remote vortex]

Expand

[teal tinsel]

I honestly can’t tell if you are living in the canon

The same Luke skywalker who just fucked off one day

The new republic is ineffective

[round vector]

Palpatine didnt contact anyone outdide exegol for ages and once the remnant turned into the first order he sent snoke to take control

[teal tinsel]

And the cloning facility was destroyed

[round vector]

Cus palpatine was gone and he lost his cousin

[remote vortex]

how do you know he didnt have contacts

why would they just take snoke as their leader

[round vector]

It was literally in bumfuck nowhere with like 20 troops

[round vector]

He took control from them smh

[teal tinsel]

Disney canon

[round vector]

Ep9

[teal tinsel]

Thoroughly written as always

[remote vortex]

star wars is dumb

.

[round vector]

He only contacted a few people like pryde

[teal tinsel]

The most ineffective general

[round vector]

No thats hux

[teal tinsel]

Again amazing writing

Hux was actually good in the force awakens

[remote vortex]

yea

[round vector]

Not as a general

[teal tinsel]

It’s episode 8 that killed him off

[remote vortex]

why

[remote vortex]

true

[round vector]

Acting sure but as a general he did jack shit

[stiff flicker]

yes

yes

yes

yes

[round vector]

Kylo did most of the work

[remote vortex]

kylo didnt do shit

[teal tinsel]

Bro literally made fascist speeches before destroying a democracy

[remote vortex]

lol

[round vector]

Ye on snokes orders wow

[stiff flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-first-order-speech-shouting-gif-14254558

[round vector]

And not like he built starkiller

[teal tinsel]

That’s exactly what generals do thought

Exactly what the big boss tells them to

[round vector]

Not really

[teal tinsel]

?????

[buoyant marten]

Breh

[teal tinsel]

Generals are commanded

[round vector]

They just get the do this and have to make a plan

[teal tinsel]

They don’t just do what they want

[round vector]

Hux didnt do that once

[teal tinsel]

What if I told you

Hux built star killer base alone

It’s true

[round vector]

He just conveys exactly what kylo tells him

[teal tinsel]

Episode 8 was so shit to his character though

Hux should have been what prude was

Pryde *

Consistently on the side of the empire / first order

Not some random old man who appeared from nowhere

Again Disney canon

[light karma]

ST moment

[round vector]

Well they had to since both snoke and phasma got killed so otherwise hux had literally no one besides kylo to act against

[buoyant marten]

Disney SW woke garbage confirmed ❗ ❗ ❗

[teal tinsel]

https://tenor.com/view/puff-puff-yfm-yfmts-yfm-your-favorite-martian-puff-puff-your-favorite-martian-gif-26148112

Where is Mike Zeroh when you need him

He would know what to do

[light karma]

Fucking Cowards role

Want to post my Knights of Melvin gifs

[tepid tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/knights-of-melvin-gif-24927489

[shy olive]

That was an incredibly good episode until for whatever reason they had to remind the audience that TLJ exists.

Skinny Pete as a Mandalorian fighting against Gus Fring is pretty amusing

[round vector]

star wars fans when they finally figure out the mandalorian will tie into the sequels after john favreau literally said it before the show even began

[shy olive]

"Set up" like they did with that small ass Hux Senior role in this episode. There's no need to bring in those red monstrosities and remind people of a horribly choreographed scene from a garbage movie.

[frank quarry]

I want the copium doses people took when they thought Mando would retcon the sequels.

[round vector]

cope harder

it has to happen and its going to

[shy olive]

Does it have to happen? No. Is it going to? Yes.

[round vector]

those people probably overdosed when they announced the new rey movie

[round vector]

it does cus the imperial remnant turns into the first order so

[shy olive]

There's 0 need to cover that in a show that takes place in 9 ABY

[round vector]

there is need to

[frank quarry]

Why...not?

[shy olive]

You have 2 decades of gap to fill that shit with some show that's shitty from the beginning

[round vector]

this requires it 100 times more then the clones wars lol

cope harder bozo

if you dont like it stop watching it

literally had a 5 year heads up it was gonna happen

[shy olive]

Nah, I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing and watch it while not giving Disney any money from a + subscription

[round vector]

so you gonna keep being a baby

ight

[frank quarry]

There's gotta be a time to let go.

It's not really healthy to obsessively hatewatch

[light karma]

Fire Jon Favreau

[shy olive]

You simp for everything Disney Star Wars with the exception of Andor. It's about time you got some help.

[round vector]

i dont

i dislike 2/3 sequel movies

but i still want the universe to build on it

and have a chance to improve on it

like clone wars improved the prequels

[frank quarry]

I mean
Even without TCW the prequels had a better universe to build off than the cluster f*ck the sequels did.

[round vector]

ye but the OT also barely had any to build off

cope bozo

[frank quarry]

...What?

[light karma]

Retcon the Sequels Bring Balance to the Fandom

[frank quarry]

That's not the same

[round vector]

as in just cus the sequels suck doesnt mean the universe building is horrible

OT had as much as sequels did if not less

[frank quarry]

So let me get this straight.
The First Order blows up a few populated planets, conquers the entire galaxy within weeks with only a few ships as "resistance"
Still had the need to use Palps' star destroyers to...conquer a galaxy that's already under their control mostly? And then a billion warships show up during exegol?

Unsalvagable

The build up and what follows can be expanded apon
But you really cannot fix the during.

[round vector]

its not to conquer, its to opress the galaxy

[thin elbow]

Can't wait for Heisenberg to show up next episode and save the day

[frank quarry]

Still incredibly redundant when even a few clone wars era bombers can blow up the exposed BFG on the less well armed underside of the ship.

[round vector]

thats why you have them above planets so if they even try anything you just blow it up

[thin elbow]

I hope they guy on Gideons left was Warlord Zsinj

He's a funny guy

[grand blaze]

Bro I thought I recognized him!

[grand blaze]

Yeah that shit’s weak af

[round vector]

Cope

[buoyant marten]

No negative opinions on the show allowed!

[round vector]

More like stop acting like the sequels arent canon and isnt connected to the rest

[shy olive]

However it seems likely that ||he is the Imperial spy, and now the Armorer brought a bunch of his buddies up to the cruiser||

[remote vortex]

Doubt

[plush wind]

I definitely felt like there was going to be some kind of infiltration on the Armourer's ship

Too much screentime of her flying up to the fleet, felt suspicious

[grand blaze]

I’d spank the Armorer

Such a foxy lady

[grand blaze]

Lmao that’s literally what that guy sounds like 💀

[grand blaze]

Correct. Maybe we’ll get to see the Armorer fuck them up cqc style

[teal tinsel]

Thought she was gonna breach the clouds and it would look like a fucking clone wars battle with thousands of ships everywhere 😂

[remote vortex]

Yeaaah lmao

[rich ocean]

Heard a few tinfoil hat theories that the Armourer is some sort of spy for Gideon

[grand blaze]

I mean, I do think she could be kind of sus

Hope not

[rich ocean]

I think there's more to her than is let on but that could really just be her character, this mysterious yet powerful mandalorian but it would be a crazy twist if yeah she was a spy and there's some decent evidence suggesting she is

[grand blaze]

I just feel like she could have ulterior motives

Perhaps a spy

I’d sooner wager she’s vying for power alongside Bo

And doesn’t truly care about uniting all the Mandalorians, moreso retaking Mandalore for her specific covert

[keen spindle]

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYtf3Bkg/

Everything is explained here

• the fact that both Armorer and Gideon have those little Maul horns on their helmets, perhaps she forged that one for him?

[rich ocean]

I think the helmets looking similar is probably just a coincidence but who knows

[trail lion]

Solid theory

[plush wind]

Oo yeah fair that could have been good

I more expected the "too weak to do shit" people to be like "ha sike"

[grand blaze]

I was so worried those red fancy pants mfs were gonna strip Paz of his helm before killing him - glad our boy got to go out like a true Mando

This is the Way

[rich ocean]

I don't think the Praetorians cared enough about him to remove his helmet or anything, just another enemy to kill

That's how the Empire is

[round vector]

probs gonna be her or them since they will probably need to disable the arquintens

also not all ships went to mandalore from nevaro which is odd

missing 1 gozanty, 4 gauntlets and most fang fighters

[remote vortex]

yeah just saw a vid about it

prob calling reinforcments

[still bramble]

Watching episode before most recent

Fish people romance

Wholesome

What the fuck is Jack Black doing here

[frank quarry]

Bro needed to appear twice that Wednesday

[still bramble]

I’m not even mad I love Jack Black

He’s great

Cool to see Mando talking to Ugnaughts again

They brought back nano droids

That’s awesome

I wondered why we never saw them ever again

Wait WTF next week is the last episode???

I feel like this season has barely even started

I never realized how huge prove droids were

Where’s Gideon’s mustache

Snoke clones?

PAELLEON???

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

Hux?

Project Necromancer

Bruh they saved all the reveals for one episode

Praetorians 😳

They forgot to put plot in the whole show and decided to shove it all into the last two episodes huh

Also supercommandos

Damn you Filoni saving all the cool shit

Bruh they literally spent an episode humanizing droids and now they have Grogu piloting a corpse

BRUH THEY ATE THE FUCKIN BABY BIRD THINGS

NAHHHH

[still bramble]

GIDEON HAS DRIP GOT DAMN

[frank quarry]

Indeed that man has been dripped out

[still bramble]

Holy shit Praetorians killed Jon Favreau

THATS THE FUCKING ENDING

[shy olive]

Cute puppet pressing funny yes/no button supercedes droid rights

[still bramble]

The sentience of droids in SW is the source of a lot of horrific implications

Do they get rights or what

[frank quarry]

Lmao no

They said the New republic would scrap those old droids regarding of programming

[grand blaze]

Now we’re asking the real questions

[celest plover]

Classic Disney

[buoyant marten]

Based

[floral bolt]

I have spoken

Did they just make that shit up or was it always there tho

[lofty fractal]

People will sit through an entire season of some of the worst television ever and call it the best show ever because glup shitto showed up for .03 nanoseconds in the last episode

[thin elbow]

postivie theres a few other warlords from legends there too

[frank quarry]

True

The ep was cool

A lot of the filler leading up to it? Nooot so much.

[supple dock]

Glup Shitto is a great character tho

[long glacier]

is it just me or does the show feel like a cutscene from a video game

at least the mandalore parts

[gentle ether]

hahaha trueee

[grand blaze]

Glup Shitto >>>> 😮‍💨

[frank quarry]

Glup Shitto solos

[grand blaze]

Ong.

[gentle ether]

im finally watching the ep

hux looks washed

nvm thats hux's dad

bro fell off after fucking a kitchen woman

[gentle ether]

they fr added godzilla to star wars

[still bramble]

Brendol Hux yep

He came up with the idea of kidnapping kids at birth for the Stormtrooper Corps

[gentle ether]

rip paz

[shy olive]

Goodbye Pazuzu

[grand blaze]

The is the Way

[celest plover]

https://tenor.com/view/the-book-of-boba-fett-this-is-the-way-the-armorer-mandalorian-gif-25545276

[still bramble]

2 days bros

[gentle ether]

2 days till grogu uses IG-11 to say “its forcing time” and then saves the day by force pushing gideon off a cliff!!!

[buoyant marten]

Shitalorian

[still bramble]

Bringing IG-11 like that was incredibly stupid

[gentle ether]

i think its pretty cool

giving grogu a little mech is neat

[still bramble]

Sure but it’s weird that he’s puppeteering a corpse

Especially after we have a whole episode talking about how droids are people

[gentle ether]

was it episode 6

cause i didnt watch it

skipped the filler and got the important info in ep7’s recap

also groug stepping in was based

annoying that bo didnt but groug the goat

[buoyant marten]

At least he’s fucking talking now

Some progress has been made with the character, even if it was for a shitty joke

[gentle ether]

yea i like that

mando was less surprised than i thought

[shy olive]

It was a good move. They found a way for Grogu to finally be able to do shit + he can actually communicate now

Almost worth the nonsensical droid shit in the first 2 episodes

[remote vortex]

thats just simping

[buoyant marten]

Simpalorian

[frank quarry]

The hormones took over

[grand blaze]

Exactly what time does the Finale go live tonite?

[shy olive]

3 AM east coast

[plush wind]

8am UK

So like, 10 hours from now ish. 9 and a half

[grand blaze]

Thanks man

[shy olive]

The best for my Canadian friend

[still bramble]

Just realized something

Why don’t the stormtroopers just use the stun setting on beskar

Sabine gets stunned in rebels so it doesn’t protect from that

Seems like an easy way to deal with mandalorians

[shy olive]

The simple solution is that Rebels is a nonsensical show that shouldn't be canon

[vague solar]

actually thats facts, never really thought about that

[shy olive]

But it's not out of the realm of possibility that her armor is durasteel

[round vector]

Cus it would ruin the entire point of beskar and armor in general

[snow perch]

Hmmm ok this one doesn’t seem like it’ll disappoint

[snow perch]

Yeah this is good shit

No end credit scene.

I think the actual biggest problem with this season is that it gave 1.5 episodes to the Book of Boba Fett

[edgy vortex]

That was uh, an ending I guess?

[pine harbor]

That’s it??

[edgy vortex]

I’m kinda happy we didn’t get a shoehorned Thrawn reveal but that just felt rushed

[pine harbor]

The finale is missing something

[snow perch]

Oh yeah the length

[edgy vortex]

“Look at me Mando, I made cloned force sensi- and they’re dead”

[pine harbor]

I needed a spy or boba fett show up

I needed that starwars twist

[snow perch]

Yeah it’s not the shortest episode of the whole season like the last of us

But uh, finales should be longer really

Still, this is actually not bad. Also just like you guys said they didn’t even put the any teaser BS

[edgy vortex]

The last two episodes felt like they were 6 episodes in and remembered “oh shit we gotta make a plot for the season”

[snow perch]

They are actually true to their words when they said the story can end at any moment

EP2 and EP5 are decent

The other episodes uhhhh

[pine harbor]

No

Everything sucked ass except 5 7 & 8

[edgy vortex]

I liked the New Republic episode the best lmao

[pine harbor]

Die

Jokes

[edgy vortex]

7 was good up until the imperial base reveal

[snow perch]

EP2 is really not that bad to me.

EP3 feels like they are too desperate to make room about the New Republic

[edgy vortex]

No but seriously did I miss something because there’s like 50 or so tie fighters still in orbit

[snow perch]

Like bro do that in another series.

It’s ok to let Pershing have a bit more time but damn Jesus not that long. Also the ass acting from those bureaus and politicians ew

Lol maybe Thrawn trolled Gideon

[pine harbor]

Ur fucking right 💀

[snow perch]

He called them off off scene

🤪

[pine harbor]

The writers literally forgot

[snow perch]

So there IS a teaser

Hahahahahaha oh God

[edgy vortex]

Thrawn sneakily arrived and took them before fucking off

[snow perch]

“Yo come back don’t save the chicken man let he die there”

[edgy vortex]

Tbf Thrawn arriving to collect his assets and not caring to save Gideon would’ve been neat

[snow perch]

I saw the comments in those discussion posts say Thrawn won’t kill Gideon himself cause it’d be so out of character

He’ll just let the Mandalorians do the dirty job for him

On the mark I guess

[snow perch]

If they are gonna use that as the explanation for their weird negligence I’m totally down for it

[edgy vortex]

Also I wonder how Gideon will come back

[snow perch]

He

Uh

[edgy vortex]

No way he’s dead

[snow perch]

I don’t think they can pay more money for Giancarlo

🤣

[edgy vortex]

Nonsense

[snow perch]

🤣🤣🤣

Just let my man die because it’s such a poetic way he dies. It rhymes with his death in Breaking Bad.

Dies in an 💥

[pine harbor]

He’ll be back lol

Wearing full armor in an explosion

Bad batch was better

[snow perch]

Yeah S2 Bad Batch actually has more good baked shit

S3 Bad Batch is very likely to be a lot better than Mando S3

[buoyant marten]

Mid episode in an overall dogshit season

[thin elbow]

It was nice having that Light Cruiser for 5 seconds I guess

[pine harbor]

Lmao

[hollow pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-gus-gus-death-giancarlo-esposito-explosion-gif-19671905

cant believe they just did it again

[frank quarry]

Now I need an edit of Gus with his half blown face in Gideon's scorched armor

[long ocean]

Well that was

Something

[vague solar]

It had a start and an ending, just like the season did

[long ocean]

So true

[hollow pendant]

another shit season
people STILL think Filoni is good

[long ocean]

Yup

Another snoozefest

[hollow pendant]

reply to it with a soyjak

[buoyant marten]

Nah the server's already pt mad at me 💀 I voiced my dislike abt the ep you see

[hollow pendant]

do it anyway

[mortal granite]

idk what i was expecting from the finale but this... wasn't it

[edgy verge]

there aint no way

[long ocean]

So what do you all think of this season overall?

I think it was pretty damn shit

[supple dock]

lIzZo cArRiEd sLaYyY qUeEn!!!

-some worthless Disney stan

[plush wind]

Pretty meh

But not unwatchable

[shy olive]

Two good episodes at the end don't justify a garbage season

Also wtf is with naming episode 7 "Spy" when there isn't a spy

[frank quarry]

It's some kind of biblical reference I think

Not that there was actually a spy

Of course, you'd have to look it up to understand that

[remote vortex]

its refered to the imp lady

[mortal granite]

Bad Batch was somehow better

this finale kinda sucked compared to the pre-finale episode

[remote vortex]

guy said season was shit and fella said this

brother you have the agency to simply not watch/consume media that you don't want to. I call it head canon; I don't watch the sequels and I read more Legends books than anything. if you actually acted on what you have been saying since the beginning of the season, you wouldn't be in this chat rn, you would have stopped watching the show like a normal person. normal people don't watch something they actively dislike (watching campy movies for fun is different). Sam is absolutely correct in this. you take this too seriously and I don't ask you bow down to the Disney overlords or anything, but acting as if this is your entire life is pretty sad to watch. you have, in effect, submitted yourself to the tyrannical rule of Disney's admittedly awful stories but you don't seem to understand this is self imposed. you can walk away at anytime and get into something that takes its writing standards much more seriously (40K or smth idk). now I am not going to parade around here like I never gave my critical two cents on SW but I maintain enjoyment in the franchise. I have not read a single comment from you that even errs on the side of having a fun time. it's just kind of miserable to watch you complain abt this. peace out, no more elaboration bc I am taking the same advice I am giving you, and just walking away. also touch grass

[mortal granite]

for some reason i expected it to run for a little while longer, maybe 4 more episodes

from the pacing

I enjoyed the show overall

which is why I watch it

and think critically about it after

but the finale didn't have the energy i expected from it that the previous episode seemed to set up

[teal tinsel]

Apparently the Gideon killed was a clone

As to why he didn’t have a moustache

[remote vortex]

Yall ever heard of shaving

[shy olive]

I don't think they'd just bring up some Gideon force clones only to have all of them die in an instant and then the real Gideon only moments after

[teal tinsel]

All the clone gideons didn’t have moustache

Nor did the one who went up in flames

https://tenor.com/view/coincidence-i-think-not-coincidence-i-think-not-the-incredibles-gif-5096707

[still bramble]

Well got done watching it and all I can say is

https://tenor.com/view/the-simpsons-krusty-the-clown-wth-what-the-hell-was-that-confused-gif-4720874

[remote vortex]

Wonder why they destroyed the implerial bade though

And not exploit the resources

[still bramble]

That was disappointing

[still bramble]

Clones

Overall this season was pretty mid

I liked Kenobi better

No end credits scene either so I guess this is the end of the Mandalorian?

[remote vortex]

Is this sarcastic

Cause they already finished the script for s4

[buoyant marten]

Where end credit in my mcudalorian

[hollow pendant]

"thats it? thats the last episode?, that was just a bunch of cheap fight scenes!"
"yeah what a rip"
"grrrrrr FAVEARU BETRAYED US!"

[still bramble]

No hint for it anyway

[remote vortex]

Bruh what

[still bramble]

I don’t feel betrayed as much as disappointed that they couldn’t finish it on a high note

[still bramble]

I mean is it too much to expect a hint at what’s next?

Considering every other season had one

[remote vortex]

Litteraly him going up to captain teva asking for work

[still bramble]

Whole thing seemed rushed tbh

Only 35 minutes

Also are we all in agreement that Gideon isn’t dead

Or he has a few clones out there

[hollow pendant]

somehow...gideon has returned

[still bramble]

They spent 3 seasons building up the clone thing only to get rid of it in like 5 seconds

Oh well now we wait till Ahsoka I guess

Not too enthusiastic for it

I kinda expected a twist in the finale but they played it straight

[round vector]

ye but like the bigger picture

[shy olive]

It is a good way to set up the next season

[round vector]

also mfw they couldnt do 2 minutes showing the tie fighters get destroyed instead of just ignoring where they went

[shy olive]

they unfortunately spent the last of the cgi budget on giant creature fight #5

[still bramble]

The TIE fighters and the Mandalorian ships just passed eachother

Which is utterly goofy

[shy olive]

No shooting, nothing

mfs should've crashed into each other

[teal tinsel]

I just imagine that meme format

Passing each other

[round vector]

and then just dissapeared after shooting down the cruiser

[edgy verge]

i hate this season so much

[hollow pendant]

I know some people are excusing it becoming the bo-katan show by going "it was always about all the mandalorians"

...but wouldnt the show be called "the mandalorians" if that was the case?

[frank quarry]

Did they not see each other on radar

Like

What

[frank quarry]

Why is the season finalie not the longest episode? It really could've used 50+ mins instead of 42

[mortal granite]

yeah like why would they introduce a chekhov's gun an just... not use it

[frank quarry]

Uh uh guys it's to prove that clones can be force sensitive so that palpy palps return makes a little more sense 🤓☝️

[round vector]

i mean we didnt even see if they were

[frank quarry]

(Why didn't they just play it straight after foreshadowing the Palpaclones in the last episode sigh)

[round vector]

should have just had din kill gideon just for the real one to appear

[frank quarry]

People ARE saying that Gideon is a clone because of the lack of a mustache...like shaving doesn't exist

[round vector]

yea

[shy olive]

It's a clone simply for the fact that Disney is not going to let a popular character go until they've milked him completely dry

[still bramble]

Overall this season was crap from the moment Grogu went back to Mando

Invalidated the struggle of S2 entirely

If you told me in December that Bad Batch would be better than Mando I would have laughed

[frank quarry]

Unbelievable

Honestly

[grand blaze]

Yeah garbage overall

[stiff flicker]

why did they do my boy paz like that

[grand blaze]

Yeah fr

Did he forget he’s a father

[still bramble]

They framed the ending like it’s the actual end of the story when we know season 4 is coming anyway

[grand blaze]

It’s a new chapter for Mando and Din Grogu 🤓

[still bramble]

No end credits scene to hint at what comes next in the story beyond “hunt imperial remnants for the Republic”

It all ended a bit too perfectly for my tastes

[grand blaze]

It’s just garbage

It doesn’t deliver on so many fronts

[grand blaze]

So, in ep. 7 mando gets cut off by Gideon and grogu and the rest escape… next ep Grogu somehow offscreen locates mando and rescues him? Grogu somehow performs consecutive push/pull force moves because? Grogu only has stamina or focus when protecting mando because? Grogu miracously vanguards soul-eating flames because? Because? Because plot?

How do the writers expect us to care about these characters when we know they’re just going to deus-ex machina eachother every time.

So now, the stakes regarding grogu and mando’s wellbeing are even lower. The Armorer bids mando farewell on his and apprentice Din Grogu’s upcoming “journeys”. He has a safe house on Nevarro and some cash work with a New Republic flyboy. Bo lights the Great Forge as queen of Mandapoor. Why would I give a fuck. There’s no reason to be invested.

I’m going to continue watching for cool grogu force moves and Emily Swallow’s voice expression. That’s it

[shy olive]

Yes, the character that would faint from exhaustion from a minor use of the force a few months before can now do several minutes of force manipulative moves without breaking a sweat because plot

[grand blaze]

[round vector]

you mean 3 years

[hollow pendant]

reminder that the pacifists were right and none of this wouldve happened

[pine harbor]

.

[tepid tiger]

Ohhhh the cope

[grand blaze]

PLOT

End of season 2 episode 7, Grogu’s stamina was obliterated after tossing about a couple troopers. Now he’s fully capable of soloing several Praetorian guards and conjuring an impenetrable force shield at whim, because… plot

[round vector]

he spent 2 years with luke so

[buoyant marten]

Yeah well I spent 2 years with ur mum

[trail lion]

I thought Axe was going to do a

https://tenor.com/view/im-back-hello-boys-laugh-gif-17637494

[grand blaze]

I understand Grogu spent some time chilling with Skywalker. What is depicted from eo season 2 ep. 7 to eo season 3 ep. 8 to suggest such a massive growth spurt?

[round vector]

well he spent 2 years training with luke so, even tho it was portrayed horribly

[grand blaze]

Also, isn’t Luke’s training of Grogu only seen in a seperate show?

[round vector]

yea

[grand blaze]

Okay, at least we can agree on that

That’s fair

[round vector]

din gets a new ship and grogu back in book of boba fett

so people who didnt watch that will be confused

[frank quarry]

Indeed they were.

[floral bolt]

^this

[grand blaze]

Lmao

Fr tho

[grand blaze]

@hollow pendant can you please resend that meme which got deleted in #star-wars last night?

[hollow pendant]

DM'd

[grand blaze]

Thanks my friend

[gentle ether]

what

the

fuck

that was really good!!!

im so confused cause all the spoilers ive seen before watching were calling the finale bad and unsatisfying

like what???????? that was such a good ending!

i seriously do not understand the hate

the season itself was mid but the finale was great

[remote vortex]

I can’t tell if you joking or being serious

[buoyant marten]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-it-stop-get-some-help-michael-jordan-gif-7964841

[round vector]

Cus they hyped it up as tragic and calling gideon worse then pong krell but in the end no one died, there was only 1 spy and like the plotline of the clones is just wasted

Also dissapearing tie fighters

[frank quarry]

Also the show felt like it should've ended here but it's getting at least another season and a movie

[gentle ether]

im not

[gentle ether]

i didnt see anyone hype it up as tragic

[round vector]

the actors did

[round vector]

its just the end of the chapter

[gentle ether]

the clones plotline wasnt wasted, gideon said that the other guy is the one who’s obsessed with cloning

[round vector]

2 different cloning projects

[gentle ether]

still the same goal

force sensitive clones

[round vector]

w/e hux has going and the gideon clones

the hux one might be palps but idk if they gonna retcon that in

did hux even mention force sensative clones

cus gideon just wanted a army of the best version of himself

[gentle ether]

no

[round vector]

ye so probs not then

since gideon had him on bumfuck planet hidden away

instead of being with hux in the outer regions

also we never learnt why gideon didnt kill din

[gentle ether]

plot armor

[remote vortex]

if it was plot armor he wouldnt have been separated in the first place

[floral bolt]

The praetorian guards

[round vector]

what bout thrm

[grand blaze]

They look fucking dope, I will say that

[gentle ether]

groug quite literally running circles around them

i think they were underestimating him at that point tho

[round vector]

they were

[buoyant marten]

Mandalorian fans when the stupid fucking yoda puppet does another stupid fucking force flip

[grand blaze]

literally tho

[teal tinsel]

so we all agree

Andor was better

Midalorian

PEAKDOR

[round vector]

no shit

[teal tinsel]

I dont like your attitude

[grand blaze]

Absolutely peakdor

[pine harbor]

Lizzalorian

I hope they clone Lizzo next

[grand blaze]

[shy olive]

Clone Lizzo vs force clone Gus Fring

[still bramble]

Also is Din his family name or his first name I’m confused

[shy olive]

Well you see, it doesn't matter that Mandalorians' clan name comes last.

Disney is now China's bitch, so the name that comes first is now the clan name for some reason.

[frank quarry]

What does China have to do with any of this?

[still bramble]

What

Why would they change the name in the English version

[mortal granite]

din djarin isnt even a mandalorian name

it's from his original homeworld

i'm not even defending it but like, at least get the facts straight

[still bramble]

That’s probably the smallest nitpick I have with the finale

[buoyant marten]

Pt sure he's joking dawg

[round vector]

blazer moment

[still bramble]

You’d think that but I’ve seen more delusional takes by SW fans without the slightest hint of irony

[gentle ether]

absolutely true

[raven sedge]

yeah it was not THAT bad, not perfect but pretty enjoyable especially compared to some of the other shit episodes

[long ocean]

Ending was good and the mandos vs troopers was really dope, but otherwise the ep was just boring

Imo

[still bramble]

Was just underwhelming as a culmination of the last 3 seasons

Felt way too short

[round vector]

ye

no explenation on why he didnt kill mando, clones show up just to die

no one died either when everyone hyped it up as tragic and saying gideon would be worse then krell

[shy olive]

Exactly. So many Techs and Wreckers in here.

[still bramble]

You say that but I’ve seen people say weirder shit unironically

[round vector]

blazer is a bozo so

[pine harbor]

Yo those stormtroopers who were escorting mando to his cell put up more of a fight than the red guards lmao

[floral bolt]

Fr

[pine harbor]

Hey everyone the mandalorian sucks

[trail lion]

just kill grogu already

[grand blaze]

[placid hill]

Why is the First Order donating resources to basically fruitless causes

because Commandant Hux is presumably Brendal Hux, the First Order leader before yknow Snoke and everyone

they donate three praetorian guards (that got shit on by one mando) and an air wing for what

I thought the whole point of the First Order is to make themselves invisible to everyone, and Operation Cinder was to kill everyone that didn’t follow them, including Imperials, why are they donating to Gideon’s Mando LARP cause

[frank quarry]

Like Gideon won't try to take over if he ever got his force sensitive clones

[placid hill]

also whar

force sensitive Gideon clones??

when did this become a thing

[frank quarry]

...did you not watch the episode???

[placid hill]

I did I’m asking how is this the first time we hear of it

[frank quarry]

Wdym

Now I'm lost

[placid hill]

Gideon just randomly has a bunch of force sensitive clones in his pocket that he never uses

like what was the purpose

[frank quarry]

1: To raise the stakes
2: To give Gideon an excuse to come back even stronger later (assuming at least 1 clone survived)

[placid hill]

giey

like alright man cool

why was Din kept alive and how did Grogu get to him

[frank quarry]

Plot armor

[placid hill]

“Oh no guys the heckin’ Darksaber was destroyed”
nevermind that we’re a people of blacksmiths that constantly repair broken equipment

it wasn’t even that bad, like, Anakin’s saber got ripped in half and Rey fixed it

the beskar stormtroopers still getting one tapped by Paz Viszla

also Din can hit multiple accurate shots on the exposed necks of these guys, but when Gideon pulls up with his entire head exposed he misses

why even have him have his helmet off his invincible power armor if he’s just gonna take it off immediately

where is all this beskar coming from

Vibroblades are cool tbh glad to see them properly represented in live action

the finale was cool at first glance but if you just put five seconds into thought about anything that’s going on it’s just like why is this happening

and season two had like no consequences

“Gideon escaped lol”

[grand blaze]

iirc the Praetorian guards got shit on by one Grogu imo - Mando would have gotten killed if not for that lil guy

He quite literally solo’d those three Praetorian guards imo

Every time one of the guards went for a killing blow against Grogu, he just said “no u” and pushed them away. Whenever one of the guards went to pick up their weapon, he went “no not today”

One of the guards went to land a blow against Mando and Grogu said “we’re not doing that today”

Granted, I’m pretty Mando had absolutely zero weapons but still

I don’t see how they got shit on by Mando

[placid hill]

yeah fair enough

My soy rage got to me

[grand blaze]

With weapons though, it’d be interesting to see how it’d play out. Like, I’d be curious to see how those guards would handle Vizsla’s minigun. They would not be able to just slowmo approach all badass like and start poking at him

Unless they have some next level armour

[frank quarry]

They'd probably get cooked. Unless they can deflect like lightsabres.

[grand blaze]

Yeah, which I feel like they can’t

And they are not all Force-sensitive. Safe to say not one of those three guards was Force-sensitive so they wouldn’t be able to deflect that hailstorm of blaster fire

[long glacier]

What in the loony toons ending cut was that

[grand blaze]

It really be like that

As Zeph said that man got the Disney princess ending

[placid hill]

They don’t, Din’s handgun was able to stagger them

Paz’s gun would shred them, that’s probably why it overheated before they showed up

also I appreciate them actually showing a blaster overheat

Paz’s sacrifice was cool but he really doesn’t know how to last stand, he should’ve camped the hole Bo-Katan made

Clearly he hasn’t played Crait on Battlefront 2

[long ocean]

"thats all folks"

[grand blaze]

Lmao, sounds like Gideon cheaped out and chose not to fit his new bodyguards with beskar. Or maybe the Praetorians are too elitist to consider using that armour

[grand blaze]

Me too, I thot that was dope

tem on book of boba fett and mando s3

[grand blaze]

Yeah, agreed. It really devalued how badass it was. He didn’t exactly need to go down like that. He could have lasted longer and “covered the rear” while retreating or hell, even getting away. Like, he was just trying to buy them time. Instead he just kind of chooses to die. What bugs me more is that he had a son. I don’t know why as a father he would throw down his life like that. To me, that devalued all of his emotional dialogue regarding his son during episode 4

[buoyant marten]

Bruh

This just makes me sad

[round vector]

yea

[placid hill]

that’s true I didn’t think of that

that’s actually so cringe

bro thinks he’s Thorn

he could’ve broken the blast door and prevented the stormtroopers from tailing

[frank quarry]

Huuuuuh

That fucking sucks.

[still bramble]

Yeah this season was a real letdown

They were cooking for the last 2

[placid hill]

the more I think about Paz the more cringe it gets

they just REALLY wanted a dramatic sacrifice for no good reason

the worst possible method of raising stakes

[still bramble]

The firefights in this show generally suck

[frank quarry]

NOOOO

[remote vortex]

Cant wait to shit on new ep tomorrow

[frank quarry]

[buoyant marten]

Fr like what was he thinking

He also got zero repercussions for pulling a move that would've essentially killed din and bo-katan

[grand blaze]

Would it really have 100% killed them, though? I don’t see what was stopping them from just flying away… granted Mando didn’t have his jetpack but I feel like Bo’s jetpack would have enabled her to grab Mando (who would be clutching Grogu) and simply fly to safety just like the rest of their squad

[buoyant marten]

Why didn't they fly away then when it crashed

Grogu had to save them

[grand blaze]

That’s what I’m sayin, feel like the only reason they didn’t fly away was so the writers could show us Grogu using his crazy force abilities

[placid hill]

Axe’s maneuver made perfect sense

rare S3 dub

All the Mandalorians were warned well ahead of time what would happen

and without the base they pretty much have nowhere to go

I also appreciate Axe not going down with the ship

[floral bolt]

Only time where not killing of a character is actually good

[placid hill]

also it was just badass

like most of the fights were badass that episode but made no sense

that was probably the only decision in the whole battle by the Mandalorians that made sense

only offensive decision

wait a minute what happened to all those fighters the Mandalorian fleet had

[frank quarry]

Probably disengaged so they don't get shredded by the fighters that mysteriously vanishes

[placid hill]

where are they

they could’ve defended the cruiser

Interceptors are pretty good but they’re still TIEs

[gentle ether]

pretty sure they landed after dropping off the mandos

[placid hill]

I imagine a Mandalorian fighter would be superior since they seem to be a quality over quantity kinda people

[placid hill]

Star Wars theory have good opinions challenge

[still bramble]

I kinda thought that he was going to clone Mando since that weird cyborg dude stole his blood

[edgy verge]

It is?

The final was dumb af

[placid hill]

So the solution is to clone Maul

Yeah it’s bad, Star Wars Theory just has the ability to make it worse

[edgy verge]

No but the final is still dumb af that's his opinion

Idk if yiu got like trouble reading when you read anything this man says cuz the reach is crazy.

[placid hill]

By right of combat Rey Skywalker is the leader of Mandalore

[lament crag]

That’s a sick mod

[buoyant marten]

I have never despised a canon rule more than the darksaber rule

The "never take off your helmet" thing was bad, but at least only the crazies did it (children of the watch)

The darksaber was a thing since death watch....which means that somewhat sane mandos actually decided it was a good idea to worship a Jedi weapon

[placid hill]

The Darksaber makes sense

To say it’s just a Jedi weapon is to not understand what it represents to Mandalorians

Sneaking into the Jedi Temple during the Old Republic is some crazy shit to pull off

That’s peak

The way I interpret it is as a symbol of their ability to achieve justice and power

They don’t see it as a mere piece war loot

They look at it and know even their greatest enemies can be defeated

the elder wand stuff is like whatever

but they’re a warrior culture

they’re not perfect

[shy olive]

What gets me is that none of Tarre Viszla's descendants are force sensitive, at least in canon afaik.

[shy olive]

Rent free

[placid hill]

well I don’t actually think Tarre Viszla is real

I mean that’s speculation at best but his actual history amounts to a bedtime story to make Mando kids hate the Jedi

[shy olive]

Interesting theory

[placid hill]

Like think about it, after years and years of presumed conflict there’s a Mandalorian that joined the Jedi Order

for some reason

Even though Jedi and Mandalorians could not have a more opposed ideology

[shy olive]

There could be many reasons. It could've been part of a peace deal between the two, or he could've been a Mandalorian plant. The Jedi always preached about peace and unity so it's not like they would outright refuse the notion of having a Mandalorian join.

[shy olive]

Given the Mandalorians weren't Sith, they sure could've lol

[buoyant marten]

Yeah but they don't have to fucking use it lol

Also that's a valid interpretation but since when did canon mando's conquer anything

[placid hill]

Well yeah they don’t

but it’s fucking cool

[buoyant marten]

That's not justification

In my mind a mandalorian would never use a jedi weapon

Inb4 someone brings up boba training jaina solo

[shy olive]

Imo a Mandalorian would incorporate any weapon they could into their arsenal as long as it's practical

[placid hill]

They don’t see it as Jedi weapon though they see it as a Mandalorian one

Tarre Viszla made it

maybe

[buoyant marten]

Darksaber is not practical --> see BOBF

[buoyant marten]

I don't care how they see it, they're lunatics. A darksaber is a lightsaber which is fundamentally a jedi/sith weapon

[shy olive]

After the fucking spin I purged BoBF from my memory

[placid hill]

well like you said, they’re lunatics

[shy olive]

On a semi related note: Massive missed opportunity in S2 to make the darksaber be able to cut through beskar

Then it would actually be unique other than the color of the blade

And be practical

[buoyant marten]

Thank the emperor it's destroyed

Maybe now they can elect a mand'alor based off pure skill and leadership ability instead of whoever holds a lightsaber

And actually go and conquer some worlds

[shy olive]

I mean

The darksaber, at least in theory, represents the strongest

Anyone can challenge for it

[placid hill]

well yeah but throw some Maul sized wrenches in there and you see why it’s a dumb idea

[shy olive]

You need to be able to defeat any challenger in order to keep it

[buoyant marten]

Yea bo-katan really demonstrated how strong she is when she "earned" it

[shy olive]

Back in the day of its conception you needed to be good enough to beat even a Jedi in order to be its weilder

[buoyant marten]

That's not the point, if the current wielder got eaten by a fucking space whale does that make the space whale the rightful ruler of all mandos?

[shy olive]

It was a matter of Mandalorians becoming weak that allowed Maul to beat Pre

[buoyant marten]

According to canon lore and Mando finale, it does

[shy olive]

You're really going to put me in a position to defend this season lol

A sentient being defeated Din. It may not have been formal combat, but it still happened

[placid hill]

that’s a flaw of the mandalorian society
