I felt the choice was odd too at first. But Luke’s been forced to make such choices since we’ve known him. So it’s true to character for him but also just makes sense. There’s no point in teaching the child who already seems completely distracted, if he doesn’t want to be taught and his mind is still off with mando.
I’m thinking we’re gonna see him speak sooner than we thought.


Fuck me there was so much to love in that episode.
The temple flashback was amazing.
Sleuths are already trying to figure out who the Jedi are and whose saber it is we see in shot

But so much in there. Just brilliant.
I loved the episode, but not sure the choice was logical. Feel like Luke and Grogu has only known each other for a short time, and Grogu is very early in his training. It felt like me asking my daughter if she would rather see my mother, or my wife's mother, and whoever she didn't choose, she probably would never meet again.

But perhaps this is why Luke ultimately failed with his project.

This was a choice never given to any Jedi / padewan.
They were all taken and no going back. So he’s already changing it up a little by offering the
Choice. I think it makes sense.

I’m going with the theory Ashoka Is dropping Grogu off.

I can’t see why Luke would help Boba and He doesn’t have a spin off show coming up.

I could be wrong.

It feels like we need two more episodes

One for Boba to assemble an army. I’m assuming Tuscon Raider clans will unite plus some old work mates/Rancor.

The finale Episode for the war with the pykes/bane. Plus the reveal of who is really running the pikes and Grogus destiny.

A big 45 minutes coming up Next week.

Holy cow. Great despite George Lucas quality dialogue.

The Luke effects are so much better than last season. Improve it by another 10-15% and you can safely make a Jedi Academy series. The voice needs a little work. It felt detached and sounded like a shaky impression of Hamill at times. Overall, though, it was great. All of the feelings I wished I’d had during his reveal last season bubbled up through a well of nostalgia and hit me right in the feels when he and Grogu were first shown. Total immersion.

Cad. Motherfuckin’. Bane.

I don’t wanna get my hopes up

But I’d wager this is heads up for a Luke academy series.

I dunno; this sure felt like a backdoor pilot test run for Jedi Academy and/or Tales of the Jedi.

And, if they do it, I would bet a significant sum of money that Mara Jade will become canon

I cannot wait to see how they go about it.
This should’ve been spoiler tagged. (But I forgive you.)

Also, Cad needs to go back to his bigger hat.

They are currently making a series called tales of the Jedi.
Something is being filmed in London too nobody knows what it is.
Could be that.

I was told it was Jar Jar, read my post again for the sarcasm reveal.
If no idea we were getting all the ones we got at all.

We definitely need to see an Ashoka/Luke powwow about his Dad. I need more than a single line. Have Ghost Ewan sit around the campfire with them.

I wonder if the conceit of the Kenobi show will be Ashoka and Luke having conversations about the past as bookends for the episodes.

The door is also open for Luke to meet Ghost Hayden.

Shoutout to those meth-smoking Jawas for mounting the krayt dragon skull on their crawler. Love those furry, little bastards. (Calling it now: Jawas are drugged out Ewok exiles. Give me THAT series.)

I’ve long wished for exactly that scenario in whatever form.
The fact she says just like your father suggests they’ve already had that chat though.
Sadly.

The bomb in the bar is a taste of what’s coming I think
Will boba even make it out? Give him a noble end doing heroic shit maybe that’s why they’ve kept him low key the last few episodes

Show jabbas palace getting destroyed.

Spoiler: show
Maybe the choice backfires and Luke reconsiders friend/family attachments to make his academy work?

I hope Cobb Vanth is still alive. That showdown was great


When Mando lands on the forest planet and you see that antenna I was so happy to see R2.
