"Im Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue the franchise"
John Favreau. And Darth Kennedy stands in his way.
If they dont fire her now, Disney is truly lost.
So thats the real reason why the finale's title is "The Rescue".
You can tell which one are the real fans and which ones are the women.
@Romanogers4ever Other than Mandalorian, Star Wars isnt much hope. As to Marvel, they will face a big drop in interest in Phase 4. The big story is over, and they have killed off the A List Characters, other than Spider-Man. They will now, produce C List characters, thinking people will love them, and the old guard will be supplanted. Rather like they did with Star Wars, now that I say it out loud.
Until they remember how to write adventures, how to write heroes, and continue to push an abnormal agenda at people, their profits will continue to crumble.
@A Az Heard she is leaving soon, she's forming her own production co.
Im am 42 years old, married with kids, owner of two businesses and responsible for 40 people in this more than shitty year for all of us... but here I sit, like many men in my age now and CRY LIKE A BABY! Dave! Jon! You can't do this to an old man! THANK YOU! I just waited all my life for this.
AWESOME!! 😁
No one's old in this fandom...Star Wars is a cinema classic which will be handed on to generations, as long as Feloni and Favreau like kids continue the legacy of Lucas...may the Force be with us, always!
What really hit me is that these reacts are all 20 and 30 somethings... K Kennedy's target audience. The people she tried to kill Star Wars in, and replace it with her new Star Wars. She failed miserably. No one will ever cry for Rey this way. And that is damn sad! She could have had a passing of the torch. Instead she tried to extinguish the old torch and light a new one. If they dont fire her after this, Disney is truly lost.
LOL well I am 50 years old and you are a young pup compared to me --- but we can all cry when we see Master Luke in all his glory --- our faith in Star Wars is restored
@@fredwerza3478 My faith isnt restored. I love Eps 4, 5 and 6. I like Rogue 1 ok. I like Mandalorian.
I have no faith in Hollywood, or Disney. I'm not holding my breath that anything else will be as good as Mando. I'll wait and see.
“The Rescue”
Rescued the whole God-Damned Star Wars franchise.
what gets to me is that Luke was there as the supporting cast. It is still Din Djarin's Story.
@@angelrivera2339 Just like Luke: drop in, save the day and not hijack anybody else's life.
Not yet. One thing remains. Kennedy. You must fire Kennedy.
@@jkdbuck7670 She's gone once her contract expires as Disney opted not to renew it. Contracts are typically set for 1-3 years and feel like Disney is more inclined to do 1 year contracts
This is what we wanted Disney. Not Luke drinking blue milk from whatever that was on that island.
You´re damn right
It was a magical moment. A tragedy Lucasfilm nuked what could have been a *massive* bonding dream for Star Wars fans. #CancelDisneyPlus #WeLoveCaraDune ... I cant pay for DisneyPlus or HULU (owned by Disney).
@@ToySoldierman cara dunes lame man. Idc about whatever dbags agenda she was pushing she's just a terrible actor never should have became an actor instead of just staying a fighter.
@@ToySoldierman good ridence
Please just retcon all of the sequels and let Favreau and Filoni do it. Because right now in established canon, there's a 50/50 chance Grogu gets killed by Kylo Ren.
As yet, THIS scene is what makes grown ass men cry like babies. And for good reason. NO masculinity is lost here!
Quite the contrary, showing emotion is masculine and manly. This is what heroes do. This Is the way!
for soo long wanted to feel a kid again through star wars and this finale has fulfilled that, firm handshakes to favreau, filoni and their team.
Im 51 and i was 7 when star wars was first in the theaters I have never felt such joy as I have like a child when I watched the final episode of the Mandalorian Thank you Lucas for bringing back hope to the fans
Why I cried...because my hero is back
I concur
I waited 37 years to see that green light-saber.
I was thirteen when ROTJ came out.... its been a while.
This is the Luke Skywalker I read about in the novels starting with the Thrawn Trilogy. This is how I will always imagine him.
And when I did I instantly became a 6 year old boy again!
We all did brother. Finally justice was made for Luke
amen
"Are you a Jedi?" Most people's reaction..."He's THE Jedi!"
I said "I am, like my father before me"
kathleen kennedy would like to have a word with you
Well you know it to be the truth
After the end of 'The Rise Of Skywalker " there is ONE..and only ONE Jedi
Jedi Rey Skywalker
@@RobertSmith-rg1hx nope. I refuse to accept those movies as cannon ideas what anyone says
@@masonsuarez7096 Whether or not you care to admit it, the new sequels millions of people STILL love.and equally still love Jedi Master Rey Skywalker, who is STILL, the only Star Wars character that had Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa as her Masters, plus the reason for her every breath, is the fully redeemed Jedi Ben Solo's force power and Skywalker midichlorians surging though her very being. Rey Skywalker is even referred to this way in Wookieepedia. She is Canon whether or not your mind can wrap around the facts.
This one scene alone is better than all 3 sequels combined
Amen.
Not even close. That’s just sentimentality talking. In a few years, the kids that become adults will be pouring all over 7-9 and we’ll be outdated on our obnoxious Episode I-VI fandom.
@@DontrelleRoosevelt 7 to 9 will never leave a lasting imprint. Of course, I can't provide a window into the future to prove that, but I would bet my house on it.
@@DontrelleRoosevelt BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Star Wars AND Empire are in the top 100 movies of all time. The sequel trash will be remembered for what is. Dated, political shit.
@@DontrelleRoosevelt Great stories and great characters last in a culture's heart forever. Trash stories and trash characters remain in the dumpster forever.
You look at this from Luke's perspective , he got a call for help through the force from a child who was petrified and felt alone , then as you see him flying into the ship you see Grogu calling out to him and now in mortal fear , I think Luke was rather calm and elegant , just one fluid motion with one objective, reach and protect that child. This is what a Jedi is and this scene embodied that perfectly !! Finally Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker as we should see him.
This was at a different point in his life. A point at which he was still scratching the surface with his academy.
Whereas 25 years after the Mandalorian he would be more depressed, cynical and bitter because of what his one split-second action of Failure cost him. But once he redeemed himself we saw just how wise and selfless he really was. Even telling us first hand that exiling himself wasn’t the right decision and that Rey shouldn’t follow what he had done.
I understand other fans hate towards Rians direction, but in my opinion I felt that Johnson captured an older Luke Skywalker perfectly, taking what was so great about him in the originals and improving it, making him more relatable as a person and not just a perfect grandmaster of a Jedi order who had everything figured out.
I had no problem with how badass Luke was here, considering he was in his prime and had a commitment to saving the child.
@@Fi_Sci_ I'm sorry but there's no way Rian Johnson understand thinking about Star Wars because the only cares about the body the audience that's what you meant.. there's no way he would have nearly killed his own nephew out of instinct.. and even if he did made a mistake he would not stay with the island for so long wanting to die knowing his friends and family needs him that's what a hero is. Even if a hero makes mistakes and falls down they get back up.. honestly look at Marvel MCU Thor.. at least his hero's journey was handled better than Luke Skywalker because even at his lowest still made an effort to make a Difference even if he was reluctant.
Ted-71tellica...my dude, you nailed it. Nothing further to say. Master Luke. Our Luke.
@@CrayCruz any Luke is our Luke whether it be EU, OT or ST. Forever and always.
I am honored to meet you again master. It's been a long time...
I feel a disturbance in the force. As if a million starwars fans cried out in unison.
But not of hate and fear but of joy and hope.
@@zachisenbletter1133 Why you don’t have more likes I’ll never know.
@@brilicusgaming6922 crappy luck i guess 😄
More than a million bro
If you felt gosebumps then that means you are sensible to the Force dude.
This was the Star Wars fan equivalent of the videos of when military parents surprise their kids coming home, except Luke is everyone's space daddy.
The most apt comparison.
So it’s when military parents come home
Nah man. Sand planet? Chosen One? Resistance against Imperial Power? Miracle births?
Luke is the son of Space Jesus.
"He is strong in the Force, but talent without training is nothing."
"That is why you fail", Sequel Trilogy.
Disney trilogy. It is not canon so it isn't the sequel trilogy. That has yet to be made.
@@audience2 My bad. You're so right :)
@@audience2 They own the rights, they made they movies, they are canon regardless of how bad they were, prequels are canon too and they were the black sheep until the sequel trilogy came out.
@@Flantomas Time has been very forgiving of the Prequels. They had their flaws to be sure, but they were a lot more embraced by most SW fans even before the Kennedy/Sequel Trilogy. And just like Disney said the EU was non canon, they can always change there minds and make the Kennedy/Disney non canon as well.
"And in the Force it was felt: one billion nerds cried out in hope."
Alderan ret-conned or opposed...
Never been prouder of being a SW nerd
We are all nerds
Cried proudly :)
"Where Rian Johnson?"
"He's in the corner, holding Favreau and Filoni's beers."
Favreau and company accomplished in just a few minutes what Kathleen Kennedy failed to do in three sequels.
Is Abrams the foot stool then? 😆
@Zissou Moonshot You want art? Go buy the Criterion Collection so you can impress people.
Question: I haven't seen the sequels (I despise the prequels, only love the originals and now The Mandalorian) so I don't know about the issues the fandom has with RJ. Why people focus their anger towards the director and not the producers and writers? Or did he produced and wrote the movie he directed too? I always wondered this because the fans only mention his name to blame him.
@@m1sh474 Same reason people go apeshit over Kathleen Kennedy, but refuse to acknowledge the fact she's as involved in The Mandalorian, Rogue one and Clone wars s7 because they somehow think she's only bad, all people do is credit the bad that happend under her watch (sequel trilogy) but refuse to admit that good stuff also happend under her watch.
It's just blind hatred, needing something or someone to blame.
I've waited over 40 years for this moment. Favreau and Filoni you just made this 64 yr old feel like a kid again... I've been a SW fan since I saw the original in 1977. Thanks
Me too.
When I saw Jedi in 1983, I thought I wanted more. When what came later was released, I changed my mind. Seeing Luke finally respected has me wanting more like this. The sequels could have been like this.
Agreed. I saw Star Wars in 1977 at the age of 7. I was blown away and hooked forever. This episode had me in tears. Finally seeing the Luke we always wanted.
Wow
That has to be magical for you guys
The realisation on everyone’s face always goes like this:
Sees X-wing: 20% (hmmm luke? Nah)
Sees hooded robe: 40% (Oh! It could be!!!)
Sees green lightsaber: 80-90% (It must be luke! AEE THEY REALLY DOING THIS!)
Sees robot hand: 100% (LUKKKKKKEEEE!!!!)
Yup, that was me.
And they ran to hug him
"Ok it's an X-Wing, only one X-Wing what does that..." *Thinks about it for a second* "no fucking way!"
@@williamcronshaw5262 EXACTLY!!!!!!
why does no one recognize the saber hilt...?
"I'm a hallway badass, like my father before me."
made me laugh so hard
Hey, there is no high ground in a hallway. It's all level.
Pay no attention to those people who are negative about this overwhelmingly positive event in the Star Wars universe. The best thing Luke is doing for us now is helping us identify the real "toxic fans".
I’d say the Mandalorian has been doing an excellent job at presenting its fan service, unlike the sequels. There’s a right way to do it, and then there’s a wrong way to do it. The Mandalorian succeeds in this category by a mile.
*hands you the house mic that is hooked up to the stadium PA system* "Can you repeat that again? There's the mic. I just wanna make sure the true "Toxic Fans" in the back can hear you." Seriously...preach it my friend. :)
and all of this works thanks to the build up from the entire season with Mando flying around the galaxy looking for a jedi that could help Grogu. and at the very end, when all hope seems lost... Luke Skywalker shows up
not a single person disliked this. so whatever part of the internet you sit and scourge for info on you should probably just not go there anymore.
the best thing Luke is doing now is saving this fucking franchise despite being maltreated and disrespected in the sequels.
I think the sad part about all these reactions is the people crying. Not because they're overemotional but that the Sequels shit on him so hard that they finally get their hero back if only for a couple minutes
A few mins of hope and relief are all we need sometimes.
You put it perfectly. It's so sad that we all are so happy. Happy to have Luke back.
Very well said.
We got a tiny bit of our childhood back.
It also made us a little sad about what 7, 8 and 9 could have been. It could have been the Thrawn Trilogy. Sure the de aging visual and the voice isnt perfect. We would have been ok with that. Especially since everything is digital now, each update in the technology the quality would have improved, until the point it would be seemless in a remastered edition.
@@takingbacktoxic7898 It should have been they fucked it up royally there was never need for a Rey.
I'm a Trekkie and seeing Star Wars fans getting the Luke they always wanted put a smile on my face. Live Long and Prosper and May the Force Be With You.
But are you loyal to the great Klingon Empire or do you support the inferior and weak Federation.
Hope they can save star trek one day too.
@@MrTyst For me as a Star Trek Fan since TNG...the Franchise is dead since 2009. I can´t imagine a comeback like The Mandalorian made it.
@@Cpl._Dwayne_Hicks Regrettable but true.
This is the way
Quite possibly the greatest moment in the history of Star wars
Yeah but after the Vader scene it's still first
@@Sahil-wx9wxclose second
It is the greatest because Star Wars was at the rock bottom so to speak before this, and fing finally they brought our saviour back to save the whole fing franchise.
2020 was such a shit year these final scenes made me so happy again
It’s up there, that’s for sure.
Everyone who shed tears seeing Luke: This is the Way
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way.
Ibic cuyir te ara
This is the way!
Dave Filoni and John Favreau went from genius status, to God status!
Episodes 7 8 9 destroyed by only 2 mins of mandalorian. The true star wars
It took 37 years to see Master Luke in his prime. I fully understand and share the tears.
I wouldn’t say it was his prime. Jedi potentially become stronger with age. In the books he was a beast later in life.
@@Minotaur-ey2lg and if this is him now... imagine him later if they recon and redo the sequels
It's Nov. 2021 and I STILL get emotional watching these. The joy and love these people express is so pure and raw... Thank you, everyone.
@@Minotaur-ey2lg True. He was strong in the last Jedi but they made him a bitch,
The lone X-Wing flying in, the dark cloak, the focused shot on a gloved hand holding that iconic radio dish style lightsaber hilt with the green blade....yeah they were making sure it hit home way before the hood came off. Amazing way to give Luke the return he's deserved for so long.
Yes, those details were perfectly revealed, and yet I held my breath, hoping that it was him. So many disappointments have come before...I and so many others wanted Luke, but not just any Luke, Mark Hamill Luke...Master Luke. Those mannerisms, the sounds of his light saber as he lay waste to the Dark Troopers, and finally, the sound of him switching off his fabled green light saber. But just before he lifted his cloak to reveal his face, I said, please don't eff this up...no, I said, this is Jon and Dave's hero as well. And then pure Joy!
This is cinematic story telling master class! No other art nouveau improv can top this...pure class execution. Hurray and Thank the Makers!!! Clap.
True dat!! As soon as the x wing landed in the bay and the blue canopy was shown!! I instantly knew!!!
Watching people's reactions you could tell who the OG fans are haha. They put the pieces together right away. No hate to the new fans either*
The real fans picked all that up in minutes.
This episode could actually have been named " A New Hope "
SEbastion stan is NOT luke skywalker, MArk Hamil IS luke skywalker!!!!!!! Im so glad they CGI'd it!!!!!!!!
Exactly. He’s obviously older now than he was in 1977 so I think CGI was the only option
My gf was so hyped when we saw the security camera scene. When we saw the one blade, that was it. I was still denying, this cant be happening. When we saw the color and later his glove and hilt, it was like a punch in the face. She was just so hyped, I was literally holding myself in one piece and trying to hold my tears back. It was just phenomenal, I hope I could just relive the moment again. It was pure magic, that's what Star Wars is all about, uniting people of all age and sex. Now this is fan service (done right).
Abso-effing-lutely!
100%
This is what really nailed what a good filmmaker Favreau is. Watching the Fan Reacts to each clue. X-wing... Green Saber... Gloved hand... All still maintaining the doubt, the suspense. Then the reveal, in a relatively quiet moment after the action has ended. Just masterfully done!
I was in denial too. I was thinking it was Ah'soka. Then my wife said "The glove!". And I was like "no it can't be. Disney has screwed up so much with Kathleen. They couldn't be cruel and tease me like this.". And then after it was all over I just sat in awe and watched it another 5 times to let him t sink in. I haven't been this happy with a movie/tv in decades.
Sorry, I didn't notice the choppy CGI, the tears streaming down my 45 year old face made it hard to see the detail.
It's never about CGI. It's about emotions, which are created by story and characters.
Totally with you on that one.
It wasn't even bad
Looked better Than leia
43 year old man was transported to being a 6 year old kid again.
Thank you John and Dave.
This is just more proof that after everything thats been done, people still care about Luke. And that gives me hope.
a new hope XD
@@SuperFm101
lol niiice one!
"Are you a Jedi?" "No, I'm THE Jedi."
My favourite is the green lightsabre reveal. It’s done almost casually but such a badass shot. I can just imagine Favreau and Pascal rubbing their hands together going “oh man this part is gonna make them lose their shit!”
An architectural principle was the inspiration for that. 'If you can't hide it, emphasise it'.
Its amazing to see how much of Luke's character is linked with Hamill's small mannerisms. The way he walks into the room one foot in front of the other and the way he rotates his wrist out of his cloak to put away the lightsaber is straight out of RotJ. Major props to the double and the director for replicating his two-handed fighting style and his calm demeanor in battle.
This. They didn't beef him up or speed him up beyond recognition, he still has that slower almost clunky movements of the 70s and 80s, that just managed to completely smooth him out
I read that there was no double, which of true, makes all the more awesome!
@@SoulMusician360 The fighting was done by a double, but Luke walking into the room and everything after that was Mark Hamill himself.
Thank you for educating me
@@SoulMusician360 - The double they used was British actor Max Lloyd-Jones. In "War For The Planet of The Apes", he played Blue Eyes, Caesar and Cornelia's oldest son. He was also in "The Sandlot 2" and "Switched at Birth". Randy19 is right, though...as they did use Mark Hamill's face and CGI'ed him to look age appropriate. I thought they captured Hamill's mannerisms as Luke perfectly!
The Darth Vader scene in Rogue One empire was a warning of the dark times that lie ahead. The dreaded Disney sequels. The Luke scene in the mandalorian is a new Hope.
this one episode alone is way better than the whole rey/kylo trilogy
I love how many people avoided using the word Luke just because they didn't want to jinx it.
Well even I was thinking they wouldn't bring someone like Luke into this, I was thinking Ezra or Cal, even possibly someone else from legends like Kyle Katarn. (I would have loved that too btw) it wasn't until the green lightsaber reveal that I DARED hope it to be Luke. (I know the X-wing should have been a giveaway by itself, but who knows what a writer may add if they feel it serves the story?)
That one dumbass reactor that thought it was Cal the who time even when there were hints that it was 100% Luke:
1. The one X Wing (most obvious clue of them all)
2. Grougu senses a strong force connection
2. The Black robe and Lukes return of the Jedi costume as he walks down the hallway
3. The Black glove on the right hand
4. The green Lightsaber
5. Luke’s unique lightsaber form V and form III he uses as he chops down the dark troops in the hallway scene
6. His Lightsaber revealed when he put it back in his holster
@@thanos5149 Dont gatekeep.
@@erikjohnson3859 How am I exactly *gatekeeping?* I didn’t devalue anyone’s opinion here, I was only stating the obvious facts
Calling them a dumbass for being more knowledgeable on a game that came out recently vs some movies that came out nearly 40 years ago. Dunno ‘bout gatekeeping, but definitely being an ass.
How good does it feel to be a grown adult an have that joy of being a kid again seeing luke skywalker kick ass. Tears ran down my face while smiling 🔥💯
and then disney let him drink out of a alien titt and let him disapear on a rock, boy they have and had no clue
Could you imagine if this was played in a packed theater? Insane
Bruh, I can't even...
Mass tinnitus cases to be sure
In case anyone tries to say only men like this stuff, I am a 64 year old woman, a fan since A New Hope was in theaters, and I LOVED this scene!
I swear it is like watching the Rogue One: Vader hallway scene for the first time all over again. This is a fully fledge Jedi Master Luke Skywalker as he should have been. The smooth movement, the calm feel throughout the whole thing, and making it seem so easy. We needed this in the sequels and so glad the Mandolorian manage to stay faithful to what Star Wars is about.
For me this is more like watching Vader hallway sequence again in eps IV
@Chairman Jao Bai Dun In legends , Luke is the most powerful ever by far.
You do realize this show takes place immediately after Ep. 6 and the sequel trilogy is over 30 years later, right? Of course he would look so much better at this time rather than when he is pushing 60! That’s like griping Vader in the original trilogy isn’t as fast and mobile as Anakin in the prequels 🤦🏼♂️
At least in the sequels we ACTUALLY get Luke...this is nothing more than a random dude with a CGI face 😒
@@collegebro85 nope nope. throw the sequel on dustbin bruh. Garbage
@@collegebro85 said literally no Star Wars fan ever
I hope faverau, feloni and lucas are watching this.
When you see people showing this much love and appreciation for a character you have to wonder what kind of hate lives in the hearts of the KK crew to want to deliberately deny it.
“WE MUST SUBVERT EXPECTATIONS THATS WHAT PEOPLE WANT”
🙄🤦♂️
It felt like the entire purpose of the Mandalorian was to systematically restore the integrity of the Star Wars Saga. Favreau and Filoni were trying to save the franchise...but they had to start it off innocently enough, as "just a random post Jedi show about a Mandalorian"
A well executed show that displayed quality as still being possible for the Star Wars Saga. They were in. More freedom allowed for Season 2, where they played their hand masterfully.
What, Boba Fett confirmed alive? Bringing back a Clone Wars Mandalorian in live action? Bringing back AHSOKA in live action? Having Boba Fett suit up and make an epic return? Having LUKE FRIGGIN SKYWALKER make an epic return?
Every chapter of the 2nd season further restored a piece of the legacy of the Star Wars mythos.
Yeah, Season 2 was outstanding. It seemingly got better and better as the episodes progressed. And the finale was priceless.
I’m curious about your opinion on season 3
@@bhecker715 I was VERY disappointed with Season 3 and Book of Boba Fett.
@@ChrisPeteG Book of Boba was a waste of time I agree. But was Mandalorian Season 3 as bad as Boba?
@bhecker715 I would have to analyze Book of Boba and Mando S3 in detail to truly determine the pros and cons of both and how they measure against one another.
Book of Boba Fett to me was overall decent-to-good with some AWFUL elements and moments weighing it down. But it was fewer eps, wasted less time, and had a wholesome appearance from Luke.
Mando S3 was overall quite bad, with just a few moments and elements serving as highlights. I didn't prefer all of the added emphasis that Bo Katan received. It felt like the focus of the season went off on too many tangents as well.
I wish JJ Abrams, Rian Johnson, and Disney producers could watch this and see the fans mixture of positive emotions being shown. Creating new fans while satisfying old & current fans is possible.
We wish...but money and pride don't mix well with pure selflessness and gift-giving to kids of all ages. "God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing ye dismay"...
Disney is undoubtedly watching. The Mandalorian is simultaneously saving the franchise and carrying Disney+. Jon Favreau and Dave Feloni are saving the franchise, the streaming service, a beloved character, and the hopes of old school fans like me that Rian Johnson referred to as "manbabies." Beautiful.
Rian, JJ. And Kathleen are watching while pouring from their gin bottles swearing hate to us because it's a stunning rebuke of whom they are and what they did.
They are seeing it, they just dont care
To be fair, The Force Awakens was a good opener.
It kind of died in the second round though.
If there was any, ANY year for the legend himself to return, it was this year.
Rejoice, Star Wars fans. Our hero has come back.
This is the year.
This is the way.
This is the Jedi.
This is the will of the Force.
The best part of watching compilations like this is seeing the exact moment that it clicks in the minds of the audience that Luke Skywalker has arrived. Truly, it will be a day long remembered.
Imagine if the Mandalorian was a movie series and this moment happened in the theater
This is what STAR WARS is meant to be -- pure joy.
Sees hallway: LIKE MY FATHER BEFORE ME.
It's incredible how there was no leaks or spoilers of this ending anywhere in the internet. This is real suspension.
I actually did see a leak about Ahsoka, Bo-Katan, Boba Fett, AND Luke all being in Mando Season 2. I promptly ignored it and forgot about it.
Turns out....
As soon as saw that X-wing I was in tears. My BF was like you ok? I was like it's Luke he said I didn't want to say because you started crying just seeing the ship.. I was in bits he said wait till we see the saber.. Green I was balling my eyes out lol! He was like can you stop being an emotional wreak I want to watch this hahahaha *
hey Disney....imagine these happy faces seeing Luke Skywalker at galaxys edge.......we would buy ALL the merch.......and be happy......and come back...
Or these happy faces having seen a trilogy that respected their obvious hero, instead of spitting on him and kicking him in the balls.
How the culture war destroys actual pop culture ... and profits.
I had this spoiled for me and still had tears in my eyes when I finally saw it. It was done to such perfection that it brought me back 35+ years. This is Luke at his height, so disciplined.
You know this is one of the greatest moments is Star Wars history when you can sit and watch an entire compilation of reactions...and realize everyone felt the same way you did!
I had it spoiled and it totally killed it for me. I enjoyed it but I knew it was coming. I had avoided spoilers for so long too.
Every time I see these reaction videos, I can't stop grinning. To see so many fans - the ones who stuck with the franchise even after they were ignored and knocked aside by horrible creative management - to see them so happy now. That is what makes me cry. I really hope Jon and Dave understand how much we appreciate their fight to bring back the spirit of Star Wars and the wonderful work they've started here.
They could have done dozens of similar moments in start wars franchise alone over the years. They could have done the same in other franchises as well yet they insist to produce depressing boring crap.
I like how the Mandolorian is an absolute boss the entire series and you love his badassery. Then Luke comes in and absolutely destroys an army of the enemys that you thought was terrifying. You really acknowledge the crazy power of the jedi.
yeah it really builds the dark troopers to be unbeatable, nice contrast and display of power dynamics, unlike some other star wars content recently.... xD
Yup. The whole reason for Order 66 was because Sidious knew that unless he could surprise attack the Jedi Order with overwhelming force using the clones and Vader, he had no chance - they would regroup and annihilate him in due time. That's why he went for such a cloaks and daggers approach.
This compilation is giving me life. So much joy and raw nerd emotion. The best thing about 2020, hands down.
Same for me
I agree fully! This gives me hope in something I've loved half my life! Go John Favreau!
Agreed 100%!
Pure Scientific Fact
I think that The Mandalorian bringing Luke back to the Star Wars universe like this has really saved Star Wars
Dyn: Are you a Jedi?
Luke: *Looks around at the robots he massacred with ease* Bro are you serious? 😒
Luke: weren't you watching the screens??
It's not just the Return of Luke Skywalker , It's that Luke Skywalker has been returned to us .
I want to give comment accolades to all the grown men who had no problem showing that they cried in these reaction videos. It makes me feel infinitely better to know I wasn’t the only one. Thank you gents.
"Millions of voices crying out in joy, that will never be silent again."
"Who is playing him?"
Mark Hamill in Obi Wan voice: Hello there....
there were two separate stunt doubles and they brought in mark hamill and used de-aging technology
Look at how many fans adore your franchise when a character they love is treated WITH RESPECT. This is how you handle a legendary icon like Luke Skywalker
My eyes teared up at the X-Wing and just kept building from there. 42 years old and I'm bawling at the sight of Master Luke Skywalker and R2-D2. This has been wonderful to watch.
The Rise of the Real Skywalker. The Real Last Jedi. Let’s hope to god they retcon the sequel trilogy
There still ahsokha out there
I think everyone would be cool if it was retconned into Jar Jar telling a drunken story at a bar.
@@GenSphinx That would AWESOME and fitting
In my mind, the sequel trilogy is non existent. However The Mandalorian ends is how Star Wars, at least the Skywalker Star Wars, ends. That's just my view. Take it or leave it.
@@SRP3572 We are all thrilled with your mind..but the FACTS are that there is ONE PERSON who had as their Masters Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa. Whom is right now.the ONLY living Jedi Master..Rey Skywalker. This is CANON whether or not yout mind believes it. Jedi Master Rey Skywalker is even referred to this way, in Wookieepedia.
Seeing people cry and scream the same way i did, i just want to give everybody a hug 😭 Star Wars is so much fun holy s**t
Imagine a moment like this in a packed opening weekend movie theater pre-COVID. Disney decided to throw all of that away
Possibly the best moment in TV history.
finaly disney did something right , the best episode so far, i had a feeling it was luke , the force was with me, i knew it was him, by the way i am 60 yeras old and it was very emotional for me took me back, time machines do really exist , it made me feel like when i went to the theater for the first time in 1977, then we didn't have good sound systems theaters but it sounded and looked amazing something ahead its time, can't even imagine with today's technology totally restored and dolby atmos or dts x , it was shot on panavision nikon lenses 35mm kodak film 4 track dolby mono, transfers of this type of films doesn't bring pretty good results it's something like restoring an old work of art , never imagined i would look this with my daughter and my grand kids very emotional
Beautiful. This is the way.
Disney? Its called "Favroni" and its our new hope.
The Mandalorian accomplishes more in 10 mins during the final episode of the season than anything made after Episode VI...
Hey! Prequels weren't bad! They weren't perfect, of course, but are far from being bad. And they're still million times better than sequels... They are in many aspects absolutely masterpieces - like the Anakin vs Obi Wan duel, the whole Palpatine's scheming, Mace Windu, Yoda, Christopher Lee, Opening battle in Revenge of the Sith, Qui Gon Jin, Darth Maul, even pod racers had its charm. Also, there's no other movie(s) so abused in memes, it means something.
I'll say you this - I had hopes after Force Awakens - it wasn't that bad - let's say it was a somewhat good opening to new trilogy, but after TLJ i just droped it. TLJ left me so dissapointed i didn't even watched The Rise of Skywalkers or whatever the name is. The only new character i could somehow make a faint connection to was Flynn and that's it. I couldn't connect with Rey at all, Kylo... well... in TFA it wasn't a bad villian but later... uhh... TLJ Luke was a joke. Poe was promising, but dissapointing in the end and so on... Someone in this comment section said that Carrie Fisher approved creative decisions made by Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams and my question is... Why? How? If that's true, I can't respect her decisions in this regard.
Godfather voice:
"Look. Look how they honored my boy."
Why they didn't use different actor to play Luke? It's because there's only one Luke Skywalker and it's Mark Hamill.
Is Mark Hamill but the face is cgi. Look the credits ;D
Amen! Hamill is THEE Jedi.
@@albertt69navarro57 Mark hammil : I felt young again YAY
And it is Mark Hamill. Favreau confirmed Mark was on set for the last scene (the action scenes were by Max Lloyd). You can tell the mannerisms and quirks. Regardless, we can all forget "Palpatine Wins Trilogy". Favs, Filoni, and co. are ignoring the sequels (i.e. no projects involving that, Kennedy reduced to a seat warmer by Iger and upper management, none of Rian's supposed next trilogy is even in preproduction while the post-RoTJ projects are all in the pike).
I'm not even a Star Wars fan and this shit made me tear up and cry a bit with them.
Empathy is an insane human emotion. It's as if I felt like a life-long Stars Wars fan and felt the euphoria, the sadness, and bittersweet melancholy.
God damn it. That was beautiful. That was phenomenal.
You felt the echoes of those people through the force, now you'll become a jedi in the future lol. No seriously, it's nice to see that even not diehard fans understand what fans feel with this, empathy is truly a skill of recieving those emotions and feeling them as if they were your own, if people really developed this skill and were conscious about it well I would say that we would be unlocking more of this human potential we all have, maybe we are truly capable of becoming like a "jedi", we just need to pay attention to this, as you are doing now.
Watching a whole family lose it when Luke comes out is what we needed
When, based on the reaction vids, probably Millions of people lost their collective marbles in the most beautifull way possible and tears of joy and elation were flowing like crazy... it's like the darkness has lifted and the grey turned to color and you can see the sun for the first time in years!
If the force existed and someone on this planet could actually feel it, they would have felt the power to shift the universe in these moments.
I find everyone’s reaction interesting since most (if not all) were born after 1977 and the introduction of Star Wars. I was 15 and saw it at the Edens theater in Northbrook Illinois. I was with my high school friends and saw the New Hope in glorious 88 mm film on a huge screen. The reintroduction of Luke Skywalker is important and tugs at the heart strings of my generation. The initial trilogy was magical and provided symbolic heroism that seems absent from many of today’s films or characterizations. Regretfully, the mass production of subsequent movies (and middle finger given to the original fan base) had turned many of us to the “dark side” of indifference. Jon Favreau and The Mandalorian may have just saved this franchise and rekindled the magic for an old and newer generation. Disney should get down and kiss Jon’s feet. (Being polite). This show is simply awesome. DFIU
Oh yea, one more thing, if by chance Jon Favreau ever reads this, one small (or major) request please. If you could write in a brief cameo appearance by Jar Jar Binks where is crushed by an Empire AT-AT or disintegrated into pile of babbling ruble would be greatly appreciated. There is a whole fan base that can’t wait for Jar Jars proper burial. It would be comedy gold. I’m just saying.
@@rockerdowns6051 I think Dave Feloni would see that as disrespectful to George Lucas. George loved Jar Jar. I do, however, see your point. Given the effects playing Jar Jar created for Ahmed Best, I think it would be awesome if Ahmed could join the cast of one of the new shows as a new, cool character. He might even play a Sith character who somehow vanquishes Jar Jar or a Jedi who saves him. I would just like to see some good come to him via Star Wars after all the hate he suffered.
@@mschmitt661 Or use the old Reddit theory about Jar Jar as Palpatine's accomplice and an accomplished dark side Force user himself. Since Jar Jar just disappeared in Episode 2, a story or even arc could be about what happened to him since that time.
Thank you George Lucas, thank you Favreau and Filioni, thank you everyone at the Mandalorian, thank you for coming back MARK HAMMEL.
*Hamill...
Hamil. If you're going to pretend to be a fan, at least get the man's name right...
@@fRo0tLo0p I've always had trouble with spelling, thank you for pointing out my fallibility. I guess you found me out, I really don't like anything to do with Star Wars and I should never enjoy anything to do with Star Wars again.
P.S. How's life in mom's basement?
Episode title: "The rescue". DAMN RIGHT IT IS, the rescue of the franchise
I did not realize how much I needed this moment. And watching this compilation and seeing how so many people -- all ages and backgrounds -- reacted to a beloved character treated properly, it gave me hope and a few extra tears.
This whole season had fans losing their shit moments and Luke was no exception
Remembering Luke as he was is like remembering yourself as you were.
Everyone is surprised about how he looks.... people need to remember that the show takes place right after ROTJ so of course they were gonna CGI Luke.
If Mace Windu turned up instead of Luke
Din Djarin: Are you a Jedi ?
Mace: Yes I muthafkn am ! And may the muthafkn force be with you..........muthafker !
Honestly, if it had been Mace instead of Luke, that would have been just as awesome. 🙂
Lmfao
Mace: not only a Jedi, but a Jedi MASTER, now take a seat and let me take care of that baby yoda
This was the best of 2020. The last 5 minutes of The Mandalorian season 2.
Imagine what a cinematic event this could have been if the sequels were done right.
He wouldn't call himself that, but Luke Skywalker is a badass. Full. Stop.
how many years we have been waiting for this moment !!!!! i hope its not the only time we see him
37 years !!!!
Nothing in movies or tv has ever gotten me so emotional... Seeing my childhood hero return in this manner is everything I needed it to be and more. An incredibly positive experience in an extremely negative year.
This video is so satisfying. As a 49 year old man who saw the original movie in the theatres, I totally geeked out and teared up over this. It's amazing to see young people freak out as much as I did.
It's crazy that at 45 I've waited this long to see this. Imma say this, I lost MY WHOLE SH*@ when I realized who it was. I was in my livingroom going absolutely crazy like "NO, NO THEY ARE NOT DOING THIS TO ME!!! I can't believe that this episode is better than the last 3 movies!!! 😂 😂 Jon saved my 2020!! I didn't cry until I watched the reactions. It was the connection to other fans and that shared feeling of joyful release at FINALLY seeing full fledged Luke and the flood of emotions at the same time that took me out!!!
Bo Katan: _”Incoming craft.. identify yourself.”_
Luke: _”Sorry I cannot. I need to have my big reveal moment so that everyone will lose their SHIT!”_
Meanwhile... Rian Johnson hiding out in his basement: _”Shit... so that’s how you bring back Luke Skywalker properly...”_
Just leave him there LOL
Man how easy it would have been to do this in the actual movies lol
In that moment, I imagined Moff Gideon as representing Rian Johnson with that look on his face like he was about to shit himself scared.
Damn Skywalker's and their dramatic entries... lol
Actually, Rian would be squeeing in pure joy like everyone else.
Seems like Disney is finally turning back to the light after a very dark dark mess of a trilogy.
It's incredible how Luke Skywalker isn't the only chosen one to be able to save the galaxy from the empire's tyranny but is also the beacon of hope and saving grace for Disney's star wars freedom from the clutches of the evil tyranny of KK and her cahoots.
Umm... he wasn't the chosen one, Anakin was. Or did you miss that Luke was about to die and Vader had to kill the Emperor and end the Sith reign? lol
@@Linerunner99 and without Luke, Vader would never ever turn back. So in retrospect it was actually Luke who was the main catalyst to Vader’s fulfilment of the prophecy.
@@perckmalice70 But Vader who actually fulfilled it. The prophecy did not say he would single handedly, without any aid whatsoever, bring balance to the force. It just said he'd get it done and he did.
@@Linerunner99 if you are solely talking about the prophecy, yes you are right. But again like I said, Luke was instrumental in the fulfilment of it and also the catalyst for it to even happen for without him, the prophecy wouldn’t have been realised. So my original statement about Luke being the “chosen” one is also kind of right from a certain point of view.
@@perckmalice70 No more right than Obi-Wan was about Anakin being dead (Luke proved that wrong), but we can agree to disagree.
Shout out to the ppl who cried during these scenes, you the real fans!
23:50 Nerd Reactor needs to be fired from these clip-ons. For not knowing who carried a green lightsaber - he needs chucking down a reactor.
Merry Christmas star wars fans
#MTFBWYA!!!
The best moments are the ones when the realisation hits.. "Ahh an x-wing...Wait... an x-wing?" That face... ahh the best XD
31:16 he was so proud of his son for recognizing Luke from the jump
From the second that single x-wing showed up any true fan would have known Luke Skywalker was at the controls. Lovely to see the true fans reactions
I knew it but I couldn't believe my eyes until I saw the lightsaber and the glove
nah, a true fan is anyone who enjoys star wars.
The true fans are the ones who had tears of joy and were happy when they saw Luke himself.
