This is where ranking is just dumb. It’s all one story in one galaxy.

Wait! People are calling Mando smart?

:haha:

That's literally the first thing I thought of watching the episode. I was screaming at the screen.

But I think they can still make it work. So much of Mando has been about the power of storytelling, the stories we tell ourselves that the can make it work.

Didn’t catch that.

When Grogu is on the seeing stone, there’s a little blue butterfly fluttering around him.
We’ve seen these before in the comics with Vader meditating and hes surrounded by little blue butterflies which represent the good still in him.
Here’s the crazy part. When they’re fighting the dark troopers there’s a shot of the ‘temple’ over mandos shoulder, up the hill. You can see the silhouette of Grogu on the stone but there’s another figure standing there. Theory is it’s Luke and he goes on to follow them. I’m not sure I buy that. Why not just take the troops out there.

But there is another figure standing there.


Unless he’s force projecting. Grogu is in mid flow with the force at this point.
Weird.

Favs is on GMA tomorrow morning. Hopefully we get explanations.

Luke’s timing was kinda dumb and obviously just played for maximum dramatic effect.

He was probably late because he was searching for a conveniently placed holocron on Dagobah or something.

I do love how when Star Wars needs space travel to take a long time, it takes a long time. But when they need it to be immediate, it's immediate.

Hyperspace is the speed of plot.

Rule #1 on this board is that you don't tell dime that Star Wars isn't real.

Moff Gideon went from brilliantly menacing and sinister to a completely idiotic cliché in a matter of minutes. Everything about The Darksaber was stupid. Surely he knows about Beskar armor?

Anyway, young Luke looked fine. I don't know what the haters were expecting.

Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
