 I'm back again to talk about another episode of The Mandalorian. This time, the sixth episode of season three. Spoiler's aplenty. The biggest one being, this show still sucks. If you're liking The Mandalorian season three, there's no accounting for good taste or bad. You should walk away from this video. It's going to be negative. I have a chip on my shoulder. I hate watching this show, so it's kind of just a way for me to burn off some of the rage and anger I experience on a week-to-week basis. Could I walk away? Absolutely. But I watched every season of Lost because I hate myself, so I'm going to force watch Mandalorian sit there upset because a once great show has been completely burned to the ground at this point. Season three, episode six, is a trash heap. There's really nothing good in it, and we're going to break down the episode as a whole. I took notes because I honestly watched this show now and don't retain a single thing about it afterwards because it's so nonsensical. Nothing really makes sense at all is what I'm saying. There's story beats, of course. They don't function the way a normal show does. There will be plot points resolved in completely different shows, like Mandalorian cliffhangers from season two are done in Boba Fett. There will be episodes of both series with different characters in the lead. For instance, the book of Boba Fett started out as a show about the titular character Boba Fett, but by the time it was done, it was about Mandalorian and about the cool female side character of Boba Fett. Now here we are with the Mandalorian and the same things happening. He's a shell of his former self, which really was kind of a shell to begin with because he never takes his helmet off so he's really not much of a character. Grogu, or Gragu, terrible name, now completely played for merchandise, has zero purpose on the show, somehow has become more like a baby than ever before. Complete with little like meh meh meh noises, constantly flipping around like dumbass. I can't stand it. I hate this thing now and I used to love it. I used to want to collect the little little dolls and stuff. This set was about two minutes away from becoming a complete collection of baby Grogu shit. I'm joking. No, it wasn't that bad. Regardless, the show is. Oh, and the point I was eventually going to get to is it's Boboka Tan. It's very much her show now and she's about the only good character on it. They've made sure of it. Let's start things out though with a nice Romeo and Juliet-esque space intro, I guess is what you would say. We opened this episode with a space fish called Wanda hanging out on a ship on a cruiser and she's just kind of lounging in one of those fish bacta tanks. She even eats a fish at one point, kind of a celebratory snack. The thing releases itself. She's on a throne and uh-oh, someone comes on the comm. It's a bunch of rogue Mandalorians. It's Boboka Tan's old crew. They're now rogue. They're now freelancing. It doesn't matter if it's a good guy or a bad guy paying, they just want that cash money. Ain't nothing funny about what they're doing here though. They're here to recover a stowaway. At first the captain pushes back this uh Davey Jones daughter sort of character. She's like uh I don't have him. I don't have him. And then he comes running in. Very bizarre scene because she seems very motherly and he seems like a teenager. So you have this bizarre fish romance, a fishman, and it ends before it begins thankfully and then the title comes up and we don't have to go back to that ever again because it kind of disturbed me. After the intro love affair or I guess fish affair would be more appropriate, we're back with Boca Tan, little Grogu or Grogu. I never say his name right. I don't care to look it up. And Dinjarin himself. This is great how it's framed up. We really do a good job now of showcasing what a pathetic idiot the Mandalorian is. We got Boca, front and center, flying the craft. The spaceship by the way is much more plausible than the stupid thing that we have Dinjarin flying in. The one-seater with the baby booster in the back even though he sits on his lap the whole time now. Dinjarin in this scene how it's framed up. He's just in the corner like one of the Star Trek red shirts just kind of fiddling with things. At one point he puts his finger up on what is clearly a sticker. Like he's gonna do something but nothing happens at all. It's not touch screen. It's just it's just like a sticker. He's like in all honesty Boca Tan probably put him there for Mandalorian to just kind of play with like a kid in the corner. This is just these are the framing devices I look at and I just think why? Who is this cool? It's a freaking TV series. When you're making a series or a movie in a fantasy world make your characters cool. They have the technology. They have the cameras. They have the directors. You can say okay we're gonna open the shot. Boca Tan's cool. She's got her leg up. She's flying the craft. Maybe Manda's just chilling in the back. Sharpening his blade. Working on his guns. Something manly. Something baller. Instead no. He's like off in the corner like a receptionist. I was expecting him to start taking orders or filling prescriptions. This is Boca Tan's office. Dane Jarin speaking. How can I help you? Uh-huh. Okay sweetie I'll get right on that. He's got the long fingernails. Okay goodbye. I'll patch you through now. It's pathetic. We're heading down to Fantasy Planet to go see the other Mandalorians. The the follow-outs that we saw at the beginning, the intro of this episode. Because Boca Tan now helmet-less because she's a daywalker like blade. She's both Mandalorian and rogue Mandalorian. She can walk between both worlds. She's like Edward from Twilight. She sparkles. She shines. She's beautiful. And I love I love Kate Sackoff. She she is absolutely stunning on the eyes. Every time she saunters in I'm just I'm just all in with that. Dane Jarin's an idiot. He's he's just a shell of a man. Now they're in this little shuttle that they're forced into by this mysterious new ownership going on on the planet. They're taken down and the door is open to what looks like something out of a bad Willy Wonka knockoff. This this little room with the tables and the aliens doing drugs. It's very surreal. And often the corner of what appears to now be a Saturday Night Live skit is Jack Black and Lizzo. Jack Black and Lizzo are in this because of course they are. We had Tim Meadows in the last episode. People are just all over just coming and going. There is no structure or tone to this. The first season was like a Wild West Star Wars thing. Dane Jarin was this cool badass bounty hunter. He made he made Boba Fett look like an idiot. It was awesome. Now we fast forward two seasons. It's just this awkward middle child stuck between the shitty prequels and the god-awful sequels. And it's trying to like play off of both of them. Like we're building stuff up to disappointment but we're not forgetting the past disappointment. Instead of focusing where they did initially which was right in that middle where everything was nice and cherry. Episodes four five and six the OGs. They played off it beautifully and now they're just they're going like this and I hate it. And there's no structure and there's no semblance of narrative. So this episode it's a fucking fetch quest again. They're treated to Lizzo and King Jack Black. I really don't care enough to look up the names or what their roles are on this planet. It means little to me. He was at one point was working for the empire or something. An imperial imperial officer. Now he's he's a goody-two-shoes guy. The planet's thriving. They're doing great. And they have hired their mercenary bounty hunter Mandalorians as an army at their disposal to make sure that no one crosses them since they can't apparently have their own army on the planet because of some dumb reason. They have their own mercenary set in the distance. I'm going to point this out because the plot of this episode is so fucking dumb. I'll get to it. Anyway they're going to let Bo-Katan talk to her crew after they've solved the mystery of the island. Which is why are some of the old droids doing bad stuff? They're doing some evil stuff I think. So they have to go talk to the officer who's freaking Christopher Lloyd. Doc Brown who looks to be 92 is playing this character with evil intentions. We don't know it at first but it's pretty obvious. He tells these guys to go figure out what's going on with the droids. They take their different approaches. Mandalorian starts kicking one. He's like that one's bad because I just kicked him a bunch and now he's chasing after me so clearly he wouldn't do that if he was under my control. There's an awful chase sequence. Looks like it was filmed on the back of a Nickelodeon studio lot. Awful. Just awful all around. There's weird neon colors going on. Nothing fits. The color grading is all over the place. They take that thing out. Prophet? Like I don't know. What was the point of it? They then go to a Mos Eisley tavern, talk to some of the bots there. The droids are all pissed that they showed up and this this thing just never ends. This story goes on for an eternity and all I'm thinking is what is the point? The whole reason we're on the planet is to talk to the old crew. Instead we're doing loony tunes adventures. We're doing tiny tunes adventures over here without the fun and shenanigans. It's just misery. Eventually all roads lead back to Christopher Lloyd's character and yeah he reveals uh I hate you people. I liked the army. I like the good old Clone Wars day. General Grievous. Yada yada yada. I have a giant comical size red button right here. All I have to do is push it and all the droids turn evil. What was stopping him from doing it initially? What's his slow role plan here? And why is there a giant red button and no one's questioning it? It's just so ridiculous. Here's the point I wanted to really get to. This mercenary crew, these bounty hunters for hire, that are just hanging out eating sandwiches in the back lot of JC Penney's waiting for something to do. Why couldn't they be on the search for this great mystery that is the angry bots, the Decepticons causing a muck? Why did Lizzo and Jack Black have to conveniently a hope for two more Mandalorians to show up so they could say you two figure this out? We have like 60 dudes over there but they're you know they're on lunch for the foreseeable future. It's so stupid. Speaking of stupid, the episode wraps with them finally going to the crew who's again doing nothing because that's what the Mandalorians do and Bo Katan is like listen we all need to work as a team. We need to fasten the furious this thing, become a family again. Leader, the new leader is like you left us. You went on a hunt for a stupid Black Saber. That guy's got it. You don't got it. You didn't challenge him for it and now you want to challenge me? She challenges him. What does that mean? Well that means they just start open firing in front of everyone almost killing other members of the Mandalorians during this. It just happens. She's like I challenge you except. It's like yeah I accept. It's so ludicrous and this fight's okay. It's not the worst. It's at least something's happening. Mando's just sitting back watching. Dinjar is like yep this used to be my show. I used to have a point. Here take my Saber. I don't need it. You're the real owner anyways. It's yours. So because of some Harry Potter bullshit loophole, Dinjar is like oh no she's actually the real owner of the Saber because you see listen chill chill listen here's what happened. I was down in the Mandalorian Caves ready to go into the pool and become a real Mandalorian again. I know. I know. Don't ask any questions about that planet that no one thought to just check out because they heard from a friend of a friend that it was toxic and you shouldn't go there but no one thought to just at least touch down and scan the area. I did. It's not toxic. Don't even ask a question about that though. I'm a full Mandalorian again because I went in the pool. Anyway while I was down there I got bombarded by a bunch of bad guys. Incomes Boca and she gets the Saber. She takes out a guy with it or four because he beat me up and put me in a cage. Stole the Saber. Now she has the Saber. She gave it back to me but really it's hers because she defeated the foe who defeated me even though I'm still alive but because he took the sword at one point that's the same as defeat because the loopholes are everywhere in this dumb thing and our whole cult is so ridiculous. God this show pisses me off. It just pisses me off. She gets to walk around helmetless. She looks cool. She looks like the only somewhat intelligent person here outside of the fact that she wants to be part of this dumb tribe. He though is just so sad and lame. Like yay I'm a Mandalorian again. I get to keep doing exactly what I was doing the whole time. Wearing this helmet while I take a shit, while I go get the newspaper, while I go to bed at night, while I do everything. How fun. What is the point? What is the point of any of it? What is the point of this season? So it ends with her in a heroic pose holding the blade, looking at the camera, winking and saying to a strong female lead and then it zooms in slowly on Grogu. It's about time. Well there's my rant on the Mandalorian season three episode six. We're almost done with this thing. I think there's eight episodes I hope to the gods there is eight episodes because this nightmare needs to just be over. And then we can get the book of Book of Tan. We can get the book of the fish lady from the beginning of the episode who has more character development than Din Djarin already. Maybe we get the book of Lizzo. Get the book of Lizzo in the mix. And then on episode four or five we'll resolve stuff from the book of Boba Fett and then episode seven or eight will resolve whatever is going to happen at the end of this. Mandalorian season three.
