The Mandalorian: Speculation/Discussion (please tag spoilers)

[Gatefan1976]

Magi, go to the episode threads brother. You will find them far more nuanced and useful than this one. Not saying this thread is bad at all however.

The child has a name... and I'm still gonna call it "Hey kid!"...

Anywho... glued to my screen when I'm watching The Mandalorian.

OK, two seasons down,

Spoiler:

Mando has completed his mission/task he was given & the Jedi have the child.

Does Mando now go back to where we found him in Season 1 Episode 1 & get a new task/mission?

I don't think Mando can go back to that kind of life. Grogu has changed him on a fundamental level (ask any parent what the first kid does to them)

[Falcon Horus]

Wow... that ending though...

...including the very end.

its been pretty heavily suggested,at least twice, by Bo Katan that he join their cause.

i am guessing his having the dark saber is just a cliff hanger type of thing that will be quickly resolved in s3 e1. especially given the way it is in canon and seen on screen, how Katan accepted the DS from SABINE with no qualms in REBELS

but i am guessing that he may join them- kind of- but still be on his own working towards the cause

he has had what he has been taught he should be as a Mandalorian, taken from him (he's in a cult) and now he now longer has the purpose of protecting grogu.. HE NEEDS A MISSION, psychologically

in future, his chief mission assigned to him by show TPTBs,above all others, should be avoiding Deus Ex MAchina events at all costs

Luke was not. Deus ex machina. That was Ahsoka's plan. These were her instructions.

LOL'd at the comment "One X-Wing. We're saved." but then took far too long to realize who the Jedi was, taking down to Drone Troopers. And then the green saber made me go... oh... ooooh... and then the reveal... "OMG!! "

seriously,, what other JEDI do you know off flying around the galaxy in an xwing? i knew it was him i soon as i saw the ship

oh wait-- "other jedi" my bad.. tptb's would make us think there are no other jedi

[magi877]

Luke was not. Deus ex machina. That was Ahsoka's plan. These were her instructions.

actually the use of Luke showing up is the precise definition of it

Deus ex Machina is when a hopeless situation is suddenly solved by an unexpected occurrence. It is a contrived plot device often used in film or novels

hopeless situation = yup, it was. all those dark troopers and only two weapons in the crowd that couldd eal with them-maybe. the dark sabre and the beskar spear

suddenly solved = oh yeah.. Luke did just like Daddy and sliced and diced his way through

unexpected occurrence= absolutely unexpected. after the disaster on Tython, Din had no expectations for any Jedi to show up

---------
but hey, dont get me wrong, the MANDALORIAN IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SHOW on tv now!! The last episode was great with a disappointing final scene-- i wait impatiently for more streaming SW's content... like having a boba fett show AND maybe the mandalorian season 3 on at the same time as well as any other SW's show between now and then

Dude, Mando is set for S3 and 4 already. As I said, we are probably going to get "seasonal" series, even just for SW, let alone marvel as well.
Your wish will be granted by the mouse, just hope they keep the same calibre of directors that they do for Mando brother.

i know that.. i think i a mthe one who posted the news about all the new shows announced on investors day


i just dont want to see the trope digitally enhanced characters like Luke or Han, Leia or Chewbacca parachuted in to 'save the day' in every show!

heres to hope!

I couldn't remember where the series was situated in the timeline of the films, so Luke wasn't on my mind... It was a pleasant surprise.

grown man cries when he see luke skywalker PATHETIC!!

unless or until TPTB's erase the new trilogy, none of your tears will change the fact of Luke tossing his father's lightsaber into the ocean, or burning the Jedi texts (he thought he did) or any of his other exploits in EP 8

A) I'm quite happy with how episode VII to IX turned out
B) considering Luke walked around the Millenium Falcon behind Chewie's back, I'm fairly certain he knew he wasn't burning the ancient texts since we saw them in the drawer Finn pulled a blanket from for Rose.

C) Anakin himself broke many a lightsaber -- I wonder how many colors he cycled through before he got to red.

...and a completely unrelated D but relevant to the thread topic...

My LEGO BRICK HEADZ of The Mandalorian and the Child arrived in the mail today.
Still waiting on a replacement piece for my Lego D-0 but now I can start on another set.
