 Introduce the video drinker It's the season finale of of the Mandalorian I don't know how you guys feel for this one can't wait It's great. I'm not this much fun since my last colonic irrigation Those are always pretty good. I see the thing about it is We have been through the entire adventure as for drinking here. How far did you get why don't you tell the audience? I got to episode three and Yeah, just ragequitted when we skipped over to dr. Prushing and whoever his friend was I was just like now This is it. I'm done. I can't deal with this show anymore Which is I was pretty iffy since the giant alligator thing and started to take the Mandalorians And then there was like a 15 minute battle scene of them just shooting pointlessly at it So the funny thing is that's probably our favorite episode Mainly because that storyline with dr. Prushing despite the fact that it has absolutely like almost zero to do with Mando both in terms of story and like style and Content it's a very bizarre little piece of Star Wars that he doesn't fit the rest of the season It doesn't really matter though because the rest of the season is as you'd expect slash worse because if we were to quickly summarize it That storyline is just about how dr. Prushing gets screwed over and captured by someone manipulating him to try and my assumption at The time would be to prevent him from continuing his research or something. We haven't really gotten I was about to summarize it But I was like I realized like we didn't really get a conclusion on that We don't really know why that actually happened in episode three yet. Yeah, we're not sure yet. They're setting it up Yeah Episode four a big filler episode if there ever was one Mando Is chilling out with his Mando friends and then a big old kid napping space dragon thing Just steals a child and it's it's hilarious. The whole episode is just them try to get it the kid back Most incompetent way pop if it's if it's a big like monster thing shouldn't just eat the kid immediately I Follow the kid immediately but Several days later Yeah, I think that is that is a perfect metaphor for the storytelling of this show It's like you've got a really simple thing monster eats kid But then you we have to spin it we have to spin it out So monster eats kid takes it away barfs it up and then there's a really protracted rescue sequence To get them before the monster really eats him this time They follow it halfway and then it go back to rally the troops and then go back at night Time yeah, it's lucky nothing happened in that interim I thought the drinker was gonna go a different direction with that The idea that it's sort of a microcosm for the Disney projects They're just looking for things to regurgitate later and you show you that you remember Yeah, now it's all slimy and nasty and disgusting. That's it. That's pretty good metaphor for it What's great about that really shit rescue mission is that they cut in a flashback of another shitty rescue mission in between it Yeah, which is also gone nowhere so far Flashback of Ahmed best playing a Jedi that rescues baby Yoda from Carson. Oh, that's right Basically zero dialogue the actual seats super awkward he has like all the plot armor in the world and he gets a bunch of people killed without like Really weird set of scenes because you gain nothing from it in terms of substance It's just like look Carson Star Wars Order 66. You like all of these things This is honestly the voice actor. Isn't that cool? It's like I guess I thought it was a little bit tasteless how at the end He says it's jarbon time and then he jar jars all over the troopers. So that was a little taste That's the one part I actually like so Like I thought he's gonna get him clear of the tempo and then go wheezer free Takes out his lightsaber and as it goes Yeah, so that was the wonderful episode for episode five Remind me Grief cargo one was Seen man is like I feel like that was like a good 15 minutes Summary of episode five is Navarro good ol grief cargas plays is attacked by pirates and then Mando comes in and kills them all That's the best act by pirates off goes to visit group cargo was like, you know what no that they're not Respectable, but they're just shot with one ship and that's enough to destroy The annihilate tomorrow all the people are dead and then it takes maybe a few days for the Mando's to get there And it's just presumed that they can help There's no better way to illustrate this trigger that a capital ship above your city Just bombarding it with all kinds of artillery and then he sends a message to some guy across the other side of the galaxy Who then goes to Carson to ask if he can get some reinforcements Who then goes to the secret planet where the Mando's are and ask them maybe if they can help? We were just like laughing the whole time Yeah, this happens all the time in this season It's like in the minds of the writers like when you leave a scene everything just kind of gets paused You know you take as long as you need it's fine There's no sense of you know a galaxy that's working and you know it kind of with itself Everything's very disjointed. You don't feel like there's any sense of of it being a living world And it hasn't done for ages Do you know what kind of captured it though? What kind of did handle? The other thing that's with no in that episode is that there's a group of like fucking six pirates all being evil doing their naughty pirate things and The most embarrassing character I think in the show Yeah, out of the problem as well as that she's so integrated in All of these weird bullshit rules that they make up about like the Mandalorians all the time because they changed the rules in this episode Because Boca-Tan said that she saw a mythos or she gets to walk both worlds. Whatever that means Yeah, right, right, of course. Yeah, so that's why Boca-Tan Boca-Tan can't get it off now. Yeah, so this is like the part that starts to be like oh Is the goal of season three of Mando to like shift focus away from this this was my assumption And I I assumed and I could be proven totally wrong that they were gonna get rid of Pedro Pesco So Mando season three in the last of us, I think we're shooting at the same time. So he probably wasn't even there Totally pictures filming fucking blast of us and then he gets a call They're like, can you say this is the way he's like this is the way and then they recorded that through the phone They're like, yep, that's okay. That's most of season three done. Thank you You mentioned the whole Boca-Tan and the mythos or thing in the blacksmith lady Which got me thinking that the blacksmith lady thinks that the mythos or is a legend and doesn't actually exist And what this is is this is implying that the Mandalorian code has a just in case rule just in case The mythos or is actually real and exists and you see it Then we have a provision that will allow you to change your Mandalorian code status If you see one just on the off chance it does exist or she just made it up on the spot There's Boca-Tan bring with her any proof that she saw this with the sort of just takes her at her word Like what's interesting is that they claim it to I was gonna say if you're going by this logic, right Mando could just go away for like 10 minutes and be like yep So I went to Mandalore bathed in the waters of life. And yeah, I'm good to go now You just have to take my word for a no proof Mando needed to bring proof back that he had been in the water He had to bring the water specifically back and it was a it was a big deal people were very Skeptical that he'd been there. So he had to prove that he had the water However Boca-Tan said that she saw a mythos or and no proof was required. What a fucking mythical It's like seeing a unicorn and we're like, oh, I believe you I've been to Nebraska and then everyone's like no, that's not possible. I'll just go to Nebraska. No, that's not it You can't go there. It's cursed and and then they require a lot of extensive proof that he'd been in Nebraska And then Jim over here says yeah, so um, yeah, well a lot while I was in Nebraska I saw a unicorn and it was like wow, I can't believe you saw a unicorn. That's crazy. That's amazing. Wow I had no idea wow now you can take your home it off It would make the show infinitely better to have just one jealous character being like I Saw two. Yeah, we need to Frank Grimes in this What is Mandalorian's ever done for me? Seriously, what have y'all ever done for me? I can't go outside I have to wear this helmet on none of my armor matches. I don't have any friends. I can never get my dick out This is what a shit shit community and so with that Boca-Tan's new mission is to combine the clans of the Mandalorian Which is so funny because if you remember in Book of Boba Fert She said there were three of them left and then suddenly there was this huge faction of the stupid This is the way Mandalorians. Yeah, and the older faction the one she was hanging out with in season two. They're pretty big, too There's a whole bunch of them now the big old ship as well. She said she collected leave her Yes, like they were like you don't have the darksaber. Fuck you lady. We're right here She apparently stole a whole bunch of ships off the Empire and they stole them off here then as well So anyway, that's the Jack Black episode. I don't even know how to summarize that one Don't try it's fine. That one seems like a waste of time for everyone But at the end of it Boca-Tan defeats guy in combat And so she's like I should lead you and he's like no you don't have the darksaber simple as that and then Mando Just goes no no she does and yeah, and then she has it and it's like there we go the way it happens We memed about it. We did because Mando gets you know, there'll be some bullshit just okay like well, you know this happened and then yeah You did it because Mando gets like ambushed by some weird blood-sucking alien on Mandalore one of the best characters in the season honestly Interesting it has to be saved by Boca-Tan and we said at that point It's like oh doesn't she technically have the saber now because he would get beat by the guy and Yeah Absolute joke and that's exactly how they did it in that episode And then you get that final frame of the episode where like she's got the darksaber and she's posing all cool And then Mando's just off to the left. Yeah It feels deliberately awkwardly framed. It's just like at that point you're like are okay He's officially a supporting player in his own show So what I gathered from Star Wars fans They were very fucking unhappy because they've been getting nothing in terms of like substantive story telling and Mando Looks like he's getting sideline which leads you to episode 7 where they all go to Mando law And I mean the short version of that as well is just that they plumsily get themselves almost killed by like walking into Godzilla Yeah, it's just there. He's gone now though. I guess also there's people living on Mando Lord if you're living there Yeah, there's just Mando's that have been on Mando law this whole time as well that poison planet that apparently they never escaped and told People that it wasn't poisoned. How long has it even been po- was it ever poisoned? I just don't I don't think it was poison. There was a covered in this weird crystal There's kind of went with it wherever they I guess and it's already Unlucky that there was like not a single ship like underground they could have used. Yeah, I just can't buy that No communication device. No, there's a whole civilization here. You can't just bomb all the technology away And so I was talking to Gary about this like there was some I think it was a super chat that said like oh I thought those manders they met up with were gonna be like evil or whatever And I was like, yeah, I thought I thought like I almost blanked them I was like, oh, yeah, so Mando's meet up with our our good Mando's and they're they're a little suspicious But they're like, oh, you know, we we we serve Bo Katan It's like uh-huh and then they lead them right to Godzilla and then they lead them right to the Empire settlement It gets them all like captured slash kill. We'll get into that in a sec But I was like so they're evil then it's like well, I don't know they never had a scene for that They never know really I guess we'll find out I think it might just be incompetence And then yes, they ran into Godzilla. Yes. Yeah, they saw it appear far in the horizon and they went to it They didn't try to doge and when they started dodging they dodged into the Hempted to turn their ship away from Godzilla by the time they were right next to his fucking leg They were like, oh, we should probably avoid Whoopsy time and this entire show that we've had a giant monster Bowen Wasteland planet He eats honor I told you that's how we eat honor. That's right Yeah, and so and then there's just a huge Empire settlement on on Mandalore. It's an enormous base This one has massive world-building implications because the big base is housing a bunch of guys possibly Moff Gideon clones Mandalorian armor Say that again Moff Gideon clones No, well, so I think it's like I don't know if they're actually Moff Gideon clones. I think they are That's what we'll find out. What I take away from the most relevant part is they have beskar armor And then you know, there's there's none of these jetpack Mando stormtroopers with beskar armor in the sequel trilogy Yeah, you do get jetpack troopers. I think in the sequel trilogy, but none of them are best No, they do fly now, but They just die you can't do they fly now if they flew flew before it's Wasn't on Mandalore, right? Yeah, I guess he probably is but they so you got yeah He would have been raised in the arm the army that has the jetpack troopers and they price They probably didn't invent that as a they didn't invent an air core yesterday So he would have been aware of it a whole time. It's really just it it's really just a mess Through and through no matter how you really actually think it's cataclysmic fucking damage to show Empire forces being like wow That best cars kind of neat. We should use it. It's like oh Never ever ever have them acknowledge that at this point We've already seen like decades of The idea that your your random troopers now actually have bullet immunity or blaster immunity is just like oh my And there's this scene drinker with an army of mandos all with like several with like guns a Kimbo We're just shooting at storm troopers that all have their armor as well It's just everyone's shooting at each other and no one's hitting anything. It's just like But I've heard people like that episode so yeah, there's all the cool action stuff It's so bad. I hate it. What can we say? There's a lot of stupid people in the world I guess and I'm one of them because I continue to watch this. Yeah, so the ending is Boff Gideon traps them in a room a room that you can get out of with the fucking lightsaber and bokeh town has the dark sabers She just doesn't use it for the entire like 10 minutes of watching Mando who is secluded get beaten up by a whole bunch of stormtroopers at once. It's kind of remarkable. He's lost his plot armor Yeah, it's amazing. Well, he used to be invincible But now he's like actually can be captured the baffling car crazy still has his in-universe armor like they don't take it away They leave it on would have been a really good payoff to rip it off him and then kill him So the big question everyone's on their minds now is will they kill Mando in this episode? Oh, well, no, you forgot about pads. Visler. He died heroically remember No, the big Gatling guy man, that's right, and he didn't even need to he just kind of saved there and died Well, yeah, so the left drinker cover for fucking said this to you before but like he's chunky Mando And he's like all of you go I'll stay behind and stop them. There's too many and then he kills all of them Yeah, he's basically just him But then we have those other special I forgot their name the red armory and God Torian guards if they just annihilate him in they're gonna be a mini boss this episode. They'll be they'll be like a mini boss battle Oh, yeah Now that brings us to the to the predictions the more interesting questions about about Mandalorian season 3 Will Mando Jaren die because I feel like that's really possible at this point Well, last I spoke of it with I think Gary as I gave it a 50-50. I really have no fucking clue I'm at 50-50. I Think they will kill him. I think that they want to keep them around. He might not be the Central character of the story, but they're gonna keep him around so they can bring him back later You want to make some some buckaroos here? Can you say it's like Dollars to record like, you know exactly lines or so What's the what's the potential for Boca Town to get killed? Hell they kill here nor baby Yoda. They both say She has a possibility, but I think it's a much I think it's quite slim I don't see the grief cargo on happening I feel like I thought they would have him here by now if he was gonna be yeah in the running They've kind of put him in a position narratively where it seems like he can just sort of be Vendor I say in the in the pro column of him dying or rather that I guess the likelihood like of it happening They've moved him aside and the Pedro Pascal doesn't have as much interest clearly in the show Then on the con side it's like well, like you know, it doesn't take them much to keep Pedro Pascal He can still gain money from it They can move him to the side as Boca Town's personal bodyguard or whatever the fuck they've said of it And they've said what their Mando plan is seven years or whatever Mando movie it's there is that working in favor of keeping him around because you can't really have your big Mando verse movie with Mando's dad, I guess and so if instead of weaslin out with a 50-50 if I had to choose Think I'm gonna go with they wouldn't kill him a lot of people really like him for whatever fucking reason so they want to keep them around so they can bring them back later and They can have him pop up here and there because they love their cameos They love their look at who it is look at who's meeting it Maybe he's gonna be a part of another Boa Fett thing. Who knows but yeah But look at look at it this way as well we were talking about his commitment to doing last of us Let's be real here. He's not gonna be around after the next season of last of us Maybe he's gonna have more time. They've talked about, you know changes They have They've even said specifically his fate, so I don't know what I mean. Nothing, but we'll see Fate is to be a part of the Star Wars Universe Disney machine forever On the subject of the finale something that I've noticed as a potential overarching theme for this season of Mandalorian if you can believe it is like the notion of second chances That's something that I've noticed is like a persistent recurring story element throughout the season of people getting Second chances to do something. That's all I've got for it. I don't have anything To believe that may be there anyway. Yeah, the references would be like Mando Oh, I got a cuz you remember how it's like what are we doing in terms of Mando bathing in the living waters and getting redeemed? It's like I think that's legitimately just it like RC Yeah, now he's got a second chance to hang out with this Mando group And then there seems to be a whole big thing with Boca time basically getting a second chance to like rule Mandalore They had like Paz Vizsler kind of like going on a little redemption arc the redemption simply being that he likes Mando now But he didn't like it. Oh, yeah, and then there was there was like explicit references in the Jack Black episode when they're talking about Like the Lizzo character is talking about second chances with with doc. Yeah, you know if everybody's made mistakes Like what about second chances and then there's like the storyline with the with like Pershing and the officer lady That's kind of like the I guess the negative sides of sometimes people can be given a second chance And then they still decide to do shitty things or somebody gets a second chance and then through circumstances kind of ripped away from them That's about it. Um, that's just something I noticed It's like judging from all of that is they're gonna be some kind of payoff that relates to second chances like I Would imagine they're like no see we've laid it all up. So now it's like Boca time gets to rule Mandalore So like that's it. That's the end. Yeah Well, so I think that's what will be season one they did their finale of holy fuck We've been chilling out doing normal things throughout the season quote-unquote normal things and here come the Empire huge army always stormtroopers And this new guy Moff Gideon who's dressed all in black. This is terrifying. What are we gonna do by the time you hit the end of it? They're all dead and he's assumed dead season two. Holy fuck. He's back has a new huge army. Oh my god What are we gonna do? Oh Jesus? Oh, he's gone. Yeah, by the end of the day I can't believe we're actually headed to maybe do that again this season like you can't be serious souls fans I must have noticed by now, right? I think Moff Gideon is around until the Mando movie I don't see why they would ever kill him. It's a pattern at this point. He's back He has an even bigger or newer army. He fucking kidding me and they're gonna just by the end of this obviously Because you're not gonna end the season on like a sour note. They're gonna win But then he'll be back. He'll be back until the movie and then maybe they'll get If they've introduced clothes that of course, you'll be back Exactly there's another theory go around that the arbor will be evil Who are like familiar with what the horns on the helmet mean and all this stuff And I'm just like they've never ever thought deeper than is a pretty cool voice We should keep her at it. Yeah, I think it is. She's just apparently the cool blacksmith lady Relate law basically. She is the Lord dump character. No way. They suddenly make her evil That's just I don't think no shot. No shot. She's meant to be cool. And then there's That's it There's nothing else to speculate. So I really this is the fun of watching It's broke. We're gonna kill someone with his new baby Mac. Well, you'll do something with the force in this episode He's gonna betray Mando. Oh Drinker Baby Yoda has an IG mech that he sits in now and controls. Oh, yeah, I've seen the pictures of this Yeah, you can press a button that says yes, and it's really funny because he pressed it And those goal was he wanted to restore his friend now. They're just scuffling his corpse around He's really cool with that. Yeah, that was weird He just suddenly hated droids again and yeah, cuz an episode six It's like they're doing Blade Runner, but they don't even know it Well, like you're actually raising questions Which they don't want to explore in the Star Wars world about the nature of sentience and droids just Mando is all of a sudden Just pissed off with trigger this is part where he goes to like a droid bar and the bartender is super normal and chill and Ask him a question and like I think Normal enough for the bed is like I'm gonna fucking kill you if you don't give me a proper answers that sort of attitude Yeah And it's like remember Mando doesn't like droids. It's like no he does now Remember you I just love that there's a droid bar It's like yeah, it's really neat and so now that you caught up You're already to see this climactic finish that I imagine the internet is just absolutely lit up about We could even get a CGI skinwalker. Who knows what we'll get Oh fuck sake. I feel like a Sark of Mines. Whoo. It's okay. Yes. Oh Imagine the after credit scenes. I'm my money's on throne being like I shall Dr. Pershing was captured by the new Republic. Did you hear he saw the mountain? Pershing saw the mythos They're like like snokes, I don't I guess cuz we saw Shouldn't his arm be up in his hologram if he's holding that thing no, yeah, so many Mandalorians Look at that big-ass ship. Oh god. It's hard to believe. They're only three last week When there's just like a couple of them and they were like this nomadic race. Oh, they've made them so lame in the show Packs Here they come look Empire of Mando's Horrible idea. It's JJ shit all over again by the way, but what if we had lots of Mando's and what if we had evil Mando's? Yeah, we followed them into the base into these hallways and they ambushed us shockingly we're Mandalorians We're smart. I can't get over Muff Gideon. Just being like a discount Darth Vader. Yeah And to be fair, he's got his Mandalorian armor jet pack now, so yeah, I think Gary's calling him Boba Fring Characters into this little intro thing that's God, I hate Star Wars No, I ride back into bullshit I'm so excited though. Who knows what'll happen Wait, wait, you're not flying all the way back flying. Yeah, actually flying into a little bit. He's not actually doing that, right? To be fair if you go straight up it's shorter Oh, there you go, it's cut out there we go Why is that surprising you that was gonna happen eventually Why wouldn't you use like some of your shit? I don't know like hopefully he's actually go to space Shoot what is your point in shooting these guys? You're not gonna stop them with blaster fire Well, they got a little better. That looks pretty bad Oh, that looked bad. I'll also because there wasn't anything that happened to just cover the screen is that Mando? Oh, look at that. Well, you always see that's how you're gonna justify really killing it build the vision Oh Is he actually just gonna escape you serious Legitimately block that with the blade Flames made out of best Oh god, no, I don't use grappling hook again We'll save you What how did it none of this make sense logistically how I hear stop what do you do? You just spray it at people in their armor and it's like a video game you're a you're a medic I'm just gonna spray your resident evil spray. I can't believe we've done so that's it He's free now. I love it. That's it. All right. Let's resolved Still can't talk yet and he's able to like manipulate a complex biomechanical droid thing. It's great It's great. It's like worth practice as well I just don't get it. The door was locked baby order was with all of the mandos and then suddenly baby orders here now Yes, you want to keep two random guys to deal with dinjar and I just like why it would have been You just killed them right on the fucking spot. Oh, I would have had a modicum of respect for the show I really would have why is everything? Moff Gideon went to the dr. Evil school of Pulling apart. Yeah, why is I escaped. It's like how I He's got a jetpack now, too. Yeah, they wouldn't take off his helmet They even took his whistling birds, but they didn't take anything else We Everybody the thing is they've got a capital ship in about like 14 fucking Mando so I don't see how these ships are gonna stop them Remember when a bunch of Imperial fighters heading towards you was like a dangerous thing and you die and now it's like Oh fuck it. What are they gonna do Mando and bokeh time destroyed? What was it like six of them in a dog fight the fighters and bombers have launched their capital ship will soon be destroyed That doesn't sound like him. No, they don't love kidding clothes, baby Oh, so you're gonna love this the UI guys were working on it Mando Little green dot that's gonna be his little grogu, baby. No You could have done that already but you didn't for no reason I like how he's got horns on his helmet It's cuz he's really cool. Call me crazy, right? But if you want to keep baby Yoda safe, shouldn't he like be inside the chest lately with Anything it puts them at around chest level where people will be shooting To get shot. How's that atmosphere looking droid get me the location of Moff Gideon's command center Sorry, I don't speak binary. Well, that's the thing about binary. How are you there? You speak it or you don't It's us the droid to do something but he doesn't know what the droids saying so he just assumes the droids go to log with it I guess why don't you just have the droid give the droid a voice box? Yeah, that's fancy the fuck is happening How could you do this? How would the Imperials not have seen you and shot in the any security the busy Especially now that you know Mandalorians are running around What are you doing droid what why did you program? We just wanted to know how deep it was I guess Okay, it has curiosity of potential death that it is in program to investigate We have time to be doing this fine Only a 40-minute episode that is supposed to tie up everything. Hopefully there's no stairs in this complex. Oh, we can fly That's right. That's right. They thought of everything, right? They thought of everything they thought of everything You can't speak binary literally only sharing his beeps and he doesn't know what they mean It's lucky that the clone troopers jetpacks can just integrate with his armor like they're compatible with each other great You don't have to you don't have to worry about weaver versus Picatinny or anything like that It's just all it's all compatible. Just shove them together and they just work. This is works. Oh great It just works he could have said our five one beep for it's done two beeps for it's not done No, that would be intelligent. We don't do that. He's still flying into the app. He's there. We go I don't believe it. Am I actually to believe that his suit is really sealed against the vacuum? Yes. Yes, you are. Oh That looks pretty rough. It's okay Oh, I don't believe you are you what that he sounds like fucking saboteur Take care of the cruiser everyone go everyone get out at least be in charge. That sounds so suspicious Everyone evacuate the hurry because I said so he's gonna die. He's gonna have a he's he's his arc is over Yeah, he's a lot. That's a trick. Yeah, his arc of Boca-Tan's cool. He's gonna die for sure. Yeah, Boca-Tan. It's cool I don't know. It's over. What are you doing? You could have used the capital? Come on It has like guns That's not the absolutely horrible Look at all these ships they could have fought the Empire. Yeah, oh look, it's gonna be a big epic battle guys. Isn't it exciting? Yeah, but they're all on the ground so they outnumber and outclass them on individual unit levels. I don't understand Is I why didn't you fight them? Through the clouds, yeah, you never bumped into each other or your radar Amazing Sacrificing the capital ship for no reason and that's really bad idea. It's so stupid. Where are your show good capital ships are You really don't have shields for your ship. No, look at it. It's kept fucking midst. Why did you do this getting destroyed so much? You have like anti air lasers there everywhere ways. How are all those turrets operating? Why is he still in there? Just leave When bogaton finds out that they sacrifice the cattle ship for no fucking reason One with all the fuck off cannons on it when I took ages to capture cool. Thanks. What are we doing like metal gear solve? What is this? Yes, this is metal gear. So this is why we did that Room then because we have an action scene for it It's gonna be like in the Phantom Menace, but he doesn't even know if the droid can do this is doing it Oh Why can't you just deactivate them all at once? So it's a fight them one by one you can't fight them all at once even though they'll just deactivate the shields themselves and then attack you Oh, did I just like stand there all day? Yeah, I guess so you just punched it in the fucking helmet. Why do they keep doing that? Actually standing there they're just standing there all day Oh The droids disabled them from accessing it and it's controlling them Wow This is a video game Look he's using the zappy thing. Oh look don't you love Mando didn't these guys be calling for backup? Yeah, I get people to Many good well wouldn't do the many good, but you know Logistics of that go on shoot punch me in the helmet again Why would you get rid of the melee weapon when it's been working so well inexplicably? Oh? It's that the true epic confrontation of the show No, wait until yeah, you haven't killed that guy. Yeah, I am I Think you needed to do that Standing there. Yeah, it was standing He's brave now cuz the nerve droid and now he's he's doing a little Why did that work or is that the play that tune? That's it that concussive force you're not allowed to do that show you're not allowed to actually have the Well, that but no more of the things that don't do anything. No What the fuck empire, what are you doing? Oh, no How did you ever take over the galaxy? But I think they didn't at all. It was all of fucking ruse Boss fight boss fight boss fight Yes, why wouldn't you have it be like a healthy 30 year old one of them should open a chicken chain It's Moff Gideon not concerned that there might be like if these clones would fight him right because if they're just like him They'd have ambition for power. No Fucking do that Fringy Don't even go there is one of them gonna dramatically open He's gonna open dramatically Why are you making those moments are you controlling the robot to like put its arms out and look Oh No, he just dead dated them, I guess Like the why is that the way of killing them couldn't you just like shut there in their life support or something? I think most people when they make in their own clones install a little self-destruct Wow You can even grow plants and stuff. Why are we doing this now Jaren's okay? This is like this is this is previous episode stuff guys Not finale stuff. Do you live here? We have hideouts and food caches throughout the surface of the planet. Why don't you bathe? Man, I don't know what it is. Farms is a tear It's so clear to me that you aren't where you are and like you're in a very small space too So that's you baffling. This is our farming set. We cultivated farms Life persists. I get it. You can't stop men. Lawrence. They're just too cool I never knew this surface could still sustain plant life. Well, it does why wouldn't it? Like actually what was preventing plants are growing? You just telling us stuff that we can already see it's like Completely pointless. How else they're gonna fill time? So much Reinforcements for all of our fighters and our capital ships. Yeah. Now. Where were they go? Are they gonna go attack off Gideon? You can make a little ceiling sound, but there's just nothing for the helmet to connect to on the neck So like don't even yeah, you're right. Is it not enough for it to go? Maybe it's just a sound. It's literally just a sound effect whenever you put it on They can actually fly as fast as ships. Yeah With just a little boost so you can get to like higher spaces. Oh, do you have If armor ladies come with she's gonna need a gun, right? Is she finally gonna use our hammer you can't now look She's got a messy look. They're on our death. You are joking that she would use a hammer in flight though, right? Oh They actually just gonna fucking shoot it what what's happening? My brain I was the show real They ever go further than that here in a fucking jetpack killing stormtroopers with a hammer Why did you do that in Jaren you've caused me so many issues It's time that I Escape did those two troopers not take care of you my Oh He's mad because you killed But improve the best by adding the one I gave my cock three more inches well the force I was isolating the potential To wield the force. Did you just say he gave his the force? Literally what he just said I mean I guess that would be something that Empire evil Empire science would do What are you injected them with the force What is that even yeah, like the force right from oh you missed his head you fool I gave them the force isn't he supposed to be ego driven when he wants it though. I Guess I don't fucking know what's going on anymore Your your your your souls on your feet there don't have a lot of traction Noises well remember they have the dark troopers in the last season, right so ladies incorporated that into his armor So slow and clunky as well Don't know So would you like to do anything about that baby finished in Jaren I like how they turn around Wow, they're all ready off to kill the baby. What the fuck? What is happening? I love that the missile just goes pork it doesn't fuck They actually trying to bait the baby, I will die no fucking way of course he won't do some crazy force stuff. Oh, yeah You're actively killing Star Wars The point of our knee rockets Infants in here what is happening? Arms are straight down. He's not actually moving Like a little puppet. Why doesn't the bias set his fabric on fire most of his Fabric Baskoff fabric, it's just like John Wick Please kill him. I beg you Was this fight still going oh Dan I can join you with the boss white. We're gonna help. Yeah, why didn't you hit him with the fucking darksaber? I've got this what's it gonna be this time surrender or fight. I can beat you with this time because I have My side. Oh, yeah, well, I have this thing. Oh my god I have the purple stick. I have the black sword. I'm gonna We're gonna Stop showing this I beg you stop showing this please Oh They don't have best car It's either cool red armor or Baskar you can't have it be cool red and best Nobody cares. Oh, no Okay, okay Why did you show me that just action here action there? I gotta kill that baby To just shove people around couldn't you just crush them with power of the force No, no, well, he he's strangled jita karate the first season. He's not doing that to these guys. He just hates women. He's not angry enough Bored this sucks balls. He did good kid shut up. This is the way you miraculously weren't killed 18 times Is he still in there jump out of it leave leave. What are you? You're not driving it Is he actually just gonna I had to go down with the ship. This is my He's gonna crush it into everyone else the underground bro. You don't even know if they can get out You've committed my dude Remember that plan we didn't have everyone having heard near the ledge doesn't mean anything though. She's got a jetpack Yeah, she doesn't matter. Is he is like legit trying to just fly this into his little crack and destroy the whole base like that Is that the idea? I don't know Hey, why does he want the dark sabers so much? Oh, it's it's it's cool. It gives you like five plus Cool, let's make another one. Oh, that was easy. You oh, did he break the dock? Thank god You've lost everything You can just do that apparently, okay, it's here. Are bones not destroyed in your hand then Mandalorians are stronger together. Shut up about Mandalorians. Fuck sake This is what this is all they never know how to do their big surprise reveals just guy you forgot about He's still in there fucking leave. You cannot do anything else. Oh my god. It's close. Oh, wow. It's like secondary Oh, oh, wow, so he's not gonna die. Okay, cool. Oh look it's time What he's an imperial trader. He's actually trying to fly in there. Oh, oh, I was dead What was that plan, dude? That's a horrible plan. He may as well just kill mando baby yoda and bogey Yeah What's the mode of fighters that are still in space? I think we're back to be fair. We've been waiting for a big force moment from a certain baby Can you just shoot her in the fucking head you dumb ass She didn't even keep the shield above her head like you know in front of her head Do they work together everyone? Yeah, I wasn't big enough to fit in there I'm not gonna do anything. I know what no god. He's still alive, but they're not he'll be fine. See him next season He'll be horrible. It's god because of the force rags baby. Oh Wow, that is an insanely powerful move Mandalorians are stronger together and baby yoda Like the platform that they're sitting on be vaporized as well Yeah, I don't know. I was going custom. I would expect the whole cave to collapse in on them, but yeah, it's a massive Ship that's just Exploding how long interior of a cave Imagine this this isn't a good hour Like baby yoda stuff like Jesus. I gotta do it for that log. Okay. Wow. You are absurdly strong That's fine Totally fine. I've chosen one probably well that place held up pretty well to that kind of thing. Yeah, no bad It was only a capital ship. Oh, we're done. Okay. Nobody died. That's we did it everybody. Oh, yeah, shit. Is that it? Really? We're gonna get like maybe a surprise someone gets stabbed in the back or something Everyone goes to have a little bath everyone gets a little slip I really couldn't care less about this bullshit It's a bit of a way bigger visor to make him look more like a child Remember he is the son of the great paz visler ragnar visler I'm sure he will be a great character in the sequel sequel sequel trilogy. I'm sure in 30 years when children are going It does not even touch in him It's his roll-off his helmet. It looks so fucking stupid. They have the arbor Getting people with a habit The baby yoda didn't see didn't see the mythosaur, what's his fucking excuse are they gonna have a little baby yoda Mandalorian helmet Grogu is my apprentice He's no longer a foundling. Okay, but then he does have to have a helmet, right? He is too young to speak So he is too young to take the creed. He must remain a foundling If his parent gave permission, couldn't he then become a Mandalorian apprentice? No, because then every fucking Mandalorian parent would do that you dumbass Then I will adopt him As my own when you already adopted him that's like yeah, we already that's like what you have done Yeah, I've been doing I mean if you want to sign some paperwork. Sure. It doesn't change it. How is this is Nothing. Well, it's not the way. There's absolutely not the way let it be written in song The din jaron is accepting this foundling as his son. How is this new? We know we know he's been like that forever We assume. Yeah, we assume that was you know, it was So he wasn't you are now Like Well, maybe The names and styles work, they'll be like yeah, her name is Cree's right her last name is Cree's yeah house Cree's So he would be bokeh ton Uh grogu He'd be grogu Wait, I forgot his last name din jaron grogu jaron. Yeah, it should be grogu jaron not din grogu. What the fuck is that something? Obi-Wan calling his son Obi-Wan John Something We're gonna do it Yeah, you think one of the other guys they would be like I wouldn't have a look by the way. I'm just curious Yeah, I'm gonna have a look. She said she saw one. I just want to check so I can take my fucking helmet off. There he is Yay This means something. I was about to say they show that like it means some things. I don't know It's just a fucking weird All right, so we've done the boring scene don't make something happen make another crocodile attack Oh, they waste more fire and it's the great forge Wow, they like actually think they've accomplished anything meanwhile. I know right? What do you mean they defeated abby of evil baddo? Oh, this is the way. Oh look, there's loads of flame fans now many little flames. We can waste them all Is that like a is that a mandor gesture? Oh, shut the fuck up You prick Y'all suck. They really do We haven't had a cameo probably yet, right? Like a proper super duper big cameo. Who's it gonna be better? Be careful if they don't have cameos people are gonna think this is a bad episode. Oh god, that walking looks terrible He's not even touching the floor. He's just floating Let me play last day floaty. Oh boy hat man. He really is here. I am over here fucking ruining star wars saving star wars Yeah, right Your kid sure likes the trophies. Well, he looked at them for two seconds one of them reminds him of somebody new I have a business proposition. Give me 10 bucks. I'm gonna call this season four This youngling is my apprentice. What does that have to do with me? I'm a bounty hunter by trade Well, I'll I'll be lying now that he's with me. I'll be more selective in my assignments Oh, you have a bid though. You know, what's a lot of bouncing bringing him into danger You don't have the resources to protect the outer rim let alone hunt down imperial remnants and I need work You're gonna be more selective and therefore go after imperial remnants You want to work for the new republic on a case-by-case basis? Yeah, but he's a bounty hunter Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, this is against regulation. It'll never get approved Why would you why would it be against regulation to have independent contractors when that's exactly what you need? Well, you know what? It's regulation then you can't pay him. I was gonna pay him Own money all I require is a small advance. What I want in return is that wait, is this even his bar? Can you just take that? Yeah, the guy in the bar is like, no, it's mine Just get a fucking unit somewhere else No, we're doing the payoff. We've completed. We defeated the empire. So you couldn't come in here and take my ID You're not I fixed him. It's gonna be so incredible. I can't wait I want to give you this deed to a cabin where you can lay low with your new family if you choose Between adventures you've been saying adventures now. It's like Rick and Morty You cleaned up this place really nice. You almost forget. Yeah, you almost It was like a fucking wasteland the last time we saw it Yesterday and I have a gift for you as well. It's IG 11 Ryan, he'll be like them off. Yeah Yeah, exactly. I am genuinely blown away by how invested the writers seem to be in this fucking character It's insane. Nobody cares about uh, look at how retarded everyone is a robot shows up. I am you new marshal and they're all like Hey, rags, rags, they just went they basically just quadrupled their defense budget like it's Oh, that's his little home What are we doing? What I don't what's happening. He's chilling down. Okay, man. Does that want to sit down? What is it gonna be some scene of like leave them alone leave the frog alone Oh, so this is their little happy ending then but Damn, so like that probably is the end commander, right? They've shuffled him off to just be in his own little They did exactly what I thought they would do with him. Yeah in a sense. They really did I I don't know. I even expected more consequences then. Oh my god That was the point of that season Well, Mandalore the Mandalorian Mandalore is just fixed and the Mandalorians have it. Okay. Great. I'm I'm happy That doesn't make it. This doesn't do any problems. Damn. Do you think what happened with this? I'm curious I don't think this is a no. I mean like you reckon. I don't think this is enough Star Wars fans They get they were you needed more like arbitrary Substantialist events to happen. Like they needed for example, Boba Fett just turn up and shoot things for uh Like like throwing saying hello like the fact that they haven't I don't like Star Wars fans are going to be confused Yeah, well because the problem is like how was anybody meaningfully getting invested in the story of going back to reclaim Mandalore Because that's really all that's all you got here Yeah, it shoots hammers Always so much better than the reality Because the concept artist probably give a shit they're like, oh, I could make this idea look cool And then the episode happens and it's the Like damn, well at least my aunt gets to show up in the end because I like it. I don't believe Gideon's dead No, no Our shot and I can't actually they did it three times the exact same finale three times Like this is actually I don't know why we thought mando was going to die actually now that I yeah This is like he was never going to die. No, I actually We have fairy tale ending. I'm now starting to think that even if Pedro Pascal Refused to come back. They wouldn't kill him. No, I think he uh, I think that what they've done there might actually be They're gonna skinwalker luke him. I think that's just the that that could be him like shuffled out of the show He lives yeah, they'll bring him back if they need to right Yeah, exactly. They'll bring him back. Are the ratings down bring back din jar and they otherwise Brings it down with him Yeah Mando will be other characters or they'll just do different shows that might be the arrangement This is so funny in a meta sense though, right because they committed at the end of season two We're finally changing the format. We're breaking him up. He's gonna go bounty hunting They did that for a couple like what not even a anything. They did it They did it for one episode and then they were like which by the way Was probably the one episode we gave like an okay score to out of all Yeah, that was one of it was one of the better episodes of this selection because it's just we get to see mando in Less familiar situation, but um, they couldn't commit and so they've actually undone it and made it a permanent state That he's just chilling out with baby Yoda and they're just having fun on their little ranch or something I don't think people will be happy with this finale. I don't think so. No, this is I don't think I had enough this fails for us because none of it made any fucking sense But it fails like the vast majority of people because nothing interesting happened Gideon's just gideon cubs and dies cubs dies cubs dies like they yeah There's no there's no emotional investment any of it because it's like mandos fighting gideon again Like I don't care really who wins. I don't get any sense of like why they particularly want to beat each other It's just well we're enemies What are their opposing values other than mando thinks it's like good to be good and I'm getting it's like it's good to be evil. It is good to be evil They don't really have any directly opposing like central values that they can have clashing in this confrontation So that they mean more than just who wins the fight of punching or shooting or swinging the sword Because that's always what it comes down to us. Who's like the best at doing that Like you pointed out muller like what these fight scenes are all the same It's like the main character's taking a beat and oh looks like he could be in trouble here And then how's he gonna get out of it? It's always the other character that everyone knows The past few minutes. Yeah, exactly. We know they're there We know they're gonna show up at the crucial moment and that's it It's just the same thing happens over and over again It has become very clear with this season in particular how much they Extend like everything that happens in this show. It's little things like scenes that are three four minutes long That may be convey 30 seconds worth of information because of these protracted pauses between each Not even each sentence like within each portion of the sentence But then you have like this where it was that was like 40 minutes. What really happened in that 40 minutes They fought. They fought. The Empire got defeated The big army fought the big army and lost and the main bosses fought the main bosses and the bad guys lost And they fought the army in ways that on its face seem Substantibly different, but like, you know, oh, they're sneaking through the base Oh now they're flying around and they're having a they didn't even have a dogfight with the uh, the interceptors just left Yeah, they just disappeared. They just were done. They we did our job We're gonna go and collect our pensions now. Do you think when you saw return of the Jedi There's Praetorian guards for the emperor leaving the room or whatever. You're like one day. You're gonna see three of them fight a baby That was the funniest I didn't like fixture above them and they can't get them. They're just like jabber I don't want to say about that. Like did you not realize when you were filming it that this needs to not happen We can't do this Well, do you ever think like they looked at because in the the prequels with Yoda being like a CG character And they clearly wanted to go for the puppet direction here That they were like, well, we've got to make him look like a puppet even when he's clearly cg instead of just making him animate Like a person. Well in the in the distant shots where he's moving around That's the time where you have him be cg and then in a lot of the close-ups and holding him or when he's just sitting around That's where he's a puppet rags. That's the thing. They want him to look like a puppet Yeah, it's to avoid the style of the puppets in the original and it's like, you know Sometimes it's okay to like use visual effects I'm sorry Like just before we go on guys, I'm gonna have to drop out. Unfortunately. I've I've run out of time. Um That's right. I have a bit more rambling I want to do but thanks. Yeah. Yeah But yeah, it was it was well, it was an experience watching this with you guys I'm so glad to have shared it with you. There's nobody else that we'd rather have suffered through that with the new guys G. Thanks Bye. See you later. I'm looking at it now as much more rambling today And the way that he moves the puppet is like tipping back and over You know what I mean? Like it like it they can't fully control it. They're having trouble with it. He's he's like he's Disbalanced it's it's it's not quite right. It looks fucking hilarious and as much shit as cg yoda gets They probably nailed most of the animation from memory to cg yoda get like Meaningfully get shit though because like I've never understood that like I've actually never really understood The argument fundamentally was we don't want to see yoda doing that shit. Uh, I don't think that's a great argument No, I don't think so either. I just uh, I feel like maddo's is beating it out Well, yeah, but that's a puppet. It's like okay It is really interesting to think that like somebody could look at something like the rise of skywalker and go This is bullshit and then watch this and go like this is okay when it's so similar in principle A big fight between a million mandos. Yes is a million warm trooper It's the same thing man does and then look there's the praetorian guards and look there's the darksaber Which man I'm so thrilled that that's like gone and it doesn't exist anymore. He crushed it with his hand Does that mean if you were drifting too hard in the middle of a fight you destroy it? I think it's because of his little robot parts, but then it's like but why didn't it crush like bokeh time's hand? Yeah, why did he made robot sounds it makes robot sounds right? It goes I know but like how what does is he a cyborg? No, I think it's meant to be like he's mechanically like sort of yeah, but then he should win these fistfights because he's gonna be Oh, yeah, but he still loses because he's on his own. It's like well, he wouldn't have been but you killed all of his I just was too strong as hands have each other that they can use Together as a team The difference between the visual of a hundred thousand star destroyers and a hundred thousand mandaloreans Same thing. It's just that the star destroyers is like just incredibly This is really really really stupid. She was hitting them with her hammer. She was flying around hitting them with her hammer Yeah, like I don't know. You're right. That's the peak. That's the end That's critical mass of cringe for the for the blacksmith lady. Yeah, they did it Congratulations. I can't think of anything stupid of that. I never thought that they would do that I don't think for as stupid as this show is that I ever expected there to be a big epic battle at the end of Like thousands of mandaloreans flying around hitting each other with hammers. Yeah flying directly Also, we can't forget she's using her tongs as well. The hammer is one thing but the tongs I just like it's such a fucking parody It really does feel like a kid just throwing all of his toys at each other like and then they do this Yeah Well, yeah, the child doesn't understand what tactics are what military strategy is So a kid doesn't understand when he imagines really cool amazing warriors what they would actually be doing That's that's whatever right like if it's just a kid playing around with some toys and just imagining like a story But this is like a like like a hundred million dollar production I mean it would be worthwhile to put a little bit more thought into these set pieces It's not going to cost you anything to like make them more coherent What I really didn't expect us to get this uh and simultaneously fully expected us to get this such a weird feeling I'm really surprised There wasn't a serious effort to bait the fucking audience with with all kinds of cameos and expectations of what's going to come next But it almost feels like they were like we've wrapped up dinjar and there's this story cool thumbs up now next season We're going to be making this all about like some other crazy thing and he's going to come I think that is what's going to happen. That's the end of of uh, Mando as like main character in the story Which I don't really care about Ahsoka will almost be pushing forward the continuity of the Mando verse She's next uh, yes She is next up and I imagine that she'll be more central going forward Of Ray Stevenson, David Tennant and several other like people in it makes me think like surely there'll be a character, right? There's gonna be one. Yeah, but it's the same. It's Dave Filoni like executive and John Favreau I've seen people say you should have hope because it's like Dave Filoni looks like he has full control And it's just so funny to hear that one. He didn't have full control like here I don't think they know that Dave Filoni and John Favreau have nothing but like positive things to say about this No, yeah, if you if you see interviews with them with each other, they're very much on the same page It would seem they like this show they think it's really good. Yeah The general receptions of this season has not been good. Um, like by by standards Mando My guess would be that Star Wars fans are not gonna be happy with this finale either I don't think so. What is in here that's that's like actually the problem is I can imagine either way so easily I've kind of been looking on Twitter just now to see if I find any like trends or anything at all I found one bokeh tan one But just people just kind of fanning out about bokeh tan and how cool everything is but it's not a lot Like normally like episode season one and two when the episode dropped that day Like it was just trending all day and people were like, whoa, awesome But I have a hard time actually finding something more of a thing. There is the less valuable like the individual The specialness of it is and that's a lot of what Mando relies on. Yeah, there's no substance here It's just cool. It was individuals unique. Look at him go. Look at that armor. It's so fucking cool Everything's so cool. It's like there's three seasons of this shit now. That might actually be it It's not even even a cameo in here like no thron or nothing No, whatever the fuck and for the record. We don't actually want that. We just say no No, it's just surprising because that's what the fanbase wants from Mando I'm not thinking about the points that you guys brought up about like the dilution of uh, like Mando Mando I think maybe it coasted by it because it was the only star wars show But now there's been a lot more of like this type of star wars show with the exception of andor Mando doesn't have anything unique going for it in terms of being a star wars like a big budget star wars show anymore That's gone. So now it's like, whoa You kind of almost have to compete against the expectations that people have that in some sense have been built up by the other stuff And then also like, you know, relatively to the quality of those other shows as well Both the better one and the worst ones Yeah, I don't need to wait for Mando to get your sludge. You can just get the sludge Every month of the year. There's like some things going on Mando has always been bad But this definitely feels like it's more in the same type of bad as boba fat and obi one Or maybe maybe we're just seeing what's happening star wars is going through the same thing again That like marvel is going through right now of people who are kind of like damn man Like this really is pretty vacuous and like it's assembly line production This one felt more assembly line production than the other ones like the seams are a lot more obvious to me Yeah, maybe a little budget maybe weird that in the beginning of the season We didn't even really acknowledge that grog was just back. I don't think we got like basically anything Oh my god, we're back now They expect you to watch the episode from boba fat, I guess. Yeah, they just assumed they watched that I guess I'm actually surprised boba fat didn't show up in this show like at all It seems like such an easy way to to get a cameo in there and would make quote unquote sense and Yeah, just having fun stuff. That's what they usually do. I don't understand Yeah, especially when he said, oh, I need someone that I trust or whatever it was When he got the IG you and it's like, why don't you call boba was what's happening? I thought you were homies now I think as well He's and comes across as rushed as fuck more so than the other ones are the chapter star was legacy season four of the Mandalorian, when do you think it's coming out and what do we think it's gonna be? I'm really not sure at this point. I don't know. Well, I guess the the question is is Petropos Cal even gonna be back. Are they easy gonna bother and I don't think he will I don't think he has any interest right now I'm not sure this ending is like he's on pause. We don't know what's right now Yeah, we can put him here and we'll figure it out later I don't think we're gonna see another season of mando for a while while they're trying to figure out what they're doing Especially, you know with these plans for their mando movie. I don't think they figured it out yet Well, the thing is if they care for any continuity They kind of have to make something that takes into account that the Mandalorians have like a whole plan of a beskar again Yeah, where were they in the sequels? Very exactly. That's very very valuable. They kind of need something to destroy them Yeah, I agree. We need to get rid of these cringe lords. Yeah, wipe the galaxy clean and now the Imperials know about it as well Yeah, but don't forget about it now because the base got blown up But we will be seeing no way Moff Gideon's dead. He'll be back, but he'll be scarred The few tweets I saw by the way, we're like, ah Moff Gideon dead for goods like why would you say that? Ugh Ugh, indeed. Jeez. You don't have to watch mando for a little bit now Woohoo I'm sure that'll be better. Oh When is that coming out too soon? Yeah, maybe and or season two is not gonna be shit. That would be nice That would be nice. It would be really nice. It's our only hope. It is our only hope I have the after mando feeling right now. It's just like, uh, just Stinky, uh, yeah anything else. I don't think there's anything to add Stinky stinky show Yeah Would you bring me
