      @@awildmoose6541, ​I don't think it's all that bad. The editing or some things about it might be pushed - not to spend time on things they should be. I think it's more that they are trying to be secretive about everything. They're filming out of sequence, and that's half of the reason people complain about Hayden's acting. I don't think he knew what was coming and was asked to make it a little sus. It's foreshadowing his fall.
      They're trying to paint a particular picture - Sir Din Grogu chokes Cara Dune but can't do anything but defend himself after his training montage... It ends up with poor execution, but if you keep the writers' intent in mind, it will make sense, eventually. They have to rebuild Grogu's badness with purpose and Jedi-like goodness.

    "Mandalorians are weak once they lose their trinkets."
    Gideon clearly hasn't heard this quote by Mandalore the Destroyer:
    "Here's why you can't exterminate us, Aruetii. We're ont huddled in one place - we span the galaxy. We need no lords or leaders - so you can't destroy our command. We can live without technology - so we can fight with our bare hands. We have no species or bloodline - so we can rebuild our ranks with others who want to join us. We're more than just a people or an army, Aruetii. We're a culture. We're an idea. And you can't kill ideas - but we can certainly kill you."

So hopefully Grogu and the new Rey movie carry the canon stronger into that era. They have to double down on the stupid because they made it and released those ridiculous episode 8 and 9.

      A lot of people are thinking that. I think a better take would be that his teacher that raised him was very close to the armorer, perhaps even her love interest. And that trainer is Dead. So basically she was there side by side and knows a lot about Din and who trained him kind of like Din's Mother but not his father or trainer. That makes more sense to me in the way she acts around him.

    Star wars truly is a full circle story, First episode we see how much Din cares for the future of foundlings always giving a share of his bounties to forge their armor, now we see him adopting a foundling, teaching and raising him as a student and son, if the series ends here, I wouldn't be dissapointed.

    I have a theory that Professor Huyang might be able to repair the darksaber and reforge it to become Grogu size, because he is over a thousand years old, he would have been around when Tarre Vizla first built the thing and has records of nearly every lightsaber built since.

    • @AlbertoMartinez765
      @AlbertoMartinez765 Před rokem +19

      to be fair its Old tech and probably easy to repair even if they just have to use the original as reference the Special Dark Crystal is the ONLY part that can't be replace or repaired. Lightsabers are Not actually hard to make they are just dangerous for anyone who doesn't have the force to keep them selves from cutting themselves with it. Din has hurt himself at least twice with it so far.

    • @Hannah_The_Heretic
      @Hannah_The_Heretic Před rokem +3

      The darksaber represented and even encouraged infighting between Mandalorians for over 1000 years.
      The whole point of it being destroyed was to further reinforce the line " we are stronger together " and new change of the Mandalorian culture.
      They're done fighting each other, it is time to rebuild.
      To then go back and rebuild the darksaber would be a *HUGE MISTAKE!*
      Din Grogu is now canonically on track to become the new Tarre Vizsla.
      Maybe in another 1000 years people will be fighting over the saber he will eventually build.

    A few people have told Din That Grogu sees him as a father, but whenever he's asked what grogu is to him, hes never said "my son" he says "its a pet" or "I keep it around for luck" this is the first time Din Dijarin has accepted the role of Grogus father, almost losing him and being helpless made him realize just what Grogu means to him and he finally accepted the role of Father to this orphan, think of it like what Qui-gon was supposed to be for Anakin.

    I am 100% onboard the theory that the title "The Spies" was a biblical reference to Moses and the Twelve Spies he sent to explore Canaan, each being from a different tribe. In this, the word "spies" basically just means "scouts". Also, if I remember correctly, last episode they sent 13 Mandalorians down to scout out Mandalore. Bo and her Twelve Spies (Scouts). Bo specifically also asked for people from each tribe to join her in her quest to do so. Loooots of similarities.

    (if anyone wants to compare the music tracks themselves, the music starts at about 1:30 into this video: "The Prince of Egypt (1998) - Parting the Red Sea Scene (9/10) | Movieclips". I swear, they had to take inspiration. I'm glad they did, both tracks are very emotionally powerful and awesome (as in, awe-inspiring.)

    Great reaction! What Eric said at 26:13 was precisely what I was thinking - if Mandalore decided to appoint a council to rule, they could each have their own Darksaber or similar; they could have taken the destroyed Darksaber (don't think it's out of the question, given it was on the platform with them when they survived the blast) and used it as a template or even restored it, much like how they repaired Anakin's lightsaber prior to The Rise of Skywalker. I don't know, I just feel like the weapon is such an interesting part of the story and has such a storied history; while it seems to be in line with a new leaf for Mandalore (and is one less thing for them to fight over), I think it could still be possible that it isn't gone forever and can have a use in the future. I certainly hope so!

      Maybe when ever the new version is made, now or in years, it’s has to be given freely to be properly passed on. Wouldn’t that be an excellent cherry on top!

    Don’t know if this was said or discussed, but you noticed how the Mythosaur opened up its eyes once Grogu officially became a Mandolorian. Yes, I know the Mythosaur had its eyes open when Bo flew by, but I take that it was being disturbed from its rest.

    The naming of Grogu is different from other Mandalorians because Din Djarin wasn't always a Mandalorian, so his original culture probably had different naming conventions. It's like if a Japanese person became a Mandalorian, they wouldn't switch their name and how it works.

    There will be a season 4. Favreau finished writing it in February; they are in Pre-production as of this month, so building sets, creating costumes, etc. Filming is hopefully to start at end of year. I believe a Spring 2025 release date at the earliest but likely later, and I believe there will be a 10-15 year time jump with Mando older, Mandalore being rebuilt, and Grogu as a toddler (warwick Davis-esqe actor walking around instead of puppets).

    Omnimedia figured out what the title of the last episode meant with the help of a commenter
    "The Spies" title is referring to the Mandalorians who were "spying ahead" to make sure Mandalore is safe to inhabit .
    It's a reference to "the 12 spies" dispatched by Moses, to scout ahead the land of canaan for Israelite people .
    This explains the title pretty well . Even though I wasn't one of those people who was trying to figure out who the spies were . ( I forgot about the title while watching the episode 😅) So it made me enjoy the episode more cause I wasn't waiting for someone to betray us

    One other thing I noticed near the end, as Ragnar Vizla was being Baptized again, the creed did NOT include the promise that he would never remove his helmet!
    Perhaps the Children of the Watch are evolving?
