Yeah yeah lots of great cool stuff super awesome

But did they have to do in my boy Timothy Olyphant like that?

I'm like 95% sure he's fine. Him getting shot and his deputy getting shredded is whats going to push the town to join in. It will suck though if he's out of commission because of a shoulder shot and we don't get more of him that's not him sitting in a chair healing.

What did I just watch? This is Star Wars television at its finest. I was laughing and screaming and hollering and hooting. It's like Inception all of a sudden. A show within a show within a show. Call it fan service, call it what you want, I don't care. It honestly felt like I was watching a Star Wars movie at times.

The ultimatum took me by surprise, but it does make total sense. They really want to try to cut out that attachment. But what a perfect and logical way to get them back together. Ironically, if Grogu chooses Mando, they both will have been kicked out of their clans. What a perfect pair that'd be.Can that armor fit him though? Seemed like it might be a tight fit to me!

I think Luke wants Grogu to go back to Mando? During Luke's training in ESB he abandoned his training to go save his friends against Yoda's advice and still found his way to being a Jedi.

I hope so. The benefit to Luke starting a new Jedi Order is that he can have a different Jedi Order. At the moment, the only Jedi around who experienced those teachings was Ahsoka, and she knew the Order had issues. Luke was strong because of his attachments to others, and from his point of view, his father returned to the light in the end because of those attachments as well.

I'm not a fan of the New Jedi Order just being a rehash of the old.

Yeah I did not like the implication that he is just going to follow the old teachings even though he wasnt really trained with them.

Not that it really matters given there will be no graduates from his new school anyway lol.

Dont we already know Luke followed the old teachings because in TLJ we learned he only started to reject them after the Ben Solo Incident? I do agree that I would love for Like not to fall into the same failings as the prequel Jedi, and have him either already know or quickly realize connections are good. But Im not sure if were gonna get that

the 30 years distance between RotJ & TFA has at least given me hope we still have a few years to do cool things... although practically the Jedi Temple is destroyed 6 years before TFA and Mando's already 5 years after RotJ... so that gives us 19 years to play with.... ehhhhhhh :(

Kylo joins the academy in 6 years though :|

haven't watched boba fett yet but i thought luke looked pretty bad in the mando season 2 finale and didn't get why everyone was so hyped about him being in it tbqh. sure, it's cool that he's back (if rather fanservicey) but the execution wasn't great.

just cast sebastian stan in the part imo.

OK thanks, I'm not crazy. I watched it with headphones and the audio mixing sounded off. When he was talking to Asoka was particularly bad - it was obvious one was on a mic and the other was a robot

That's not how television works. They didn't see ratings and reviews for the first four episodes and think "oh shit everyone hates it, quick throw some mando in there!" Every episode was written, recorded, and edited months ago. They could not possibly have panic reacted and thrown these past two episodes together on the fly, particularly this last one with CG Luke - that level of special effects takes a long time to get right.

While all that is (obviously) true.it only makes the direction taken by these last two episodes that much more bizarre.

Yeah we've had 6 episodes so far. The first 4 said, this is what the show is about. Everyone complained. The last 2 said hey, remember the mandalorian? You really liked that show right? This is that show now. Obviously they couldn't have done it as a reaction, but it's just a genuinely confusing decision.

For small cameos in tv shows it probably makes sense, because it would definitely be disorienting for viewers. If it becomes a larger role though I feel like it's them essentially handcuffing themselves to a mediocre recreation of a character.

honestly he'll be in the next episode a little probably and he may not be in Mando season 3 at all or perhaps for just a very short scene. CGI Luke is perfect for a role like that.

Also, and everyone is entitled to their opinion so I'm not trying to start anything, but I feel like all this CGI Luke hate is a bit nitpicky.

Speaking of Luke, I have a question to ask regarding The Last Jedi. Is the idea supposed to be that Yoda's force spirit acts like a troll because that's genuinely how Luke knew him?

TBH it's mostly how vindictive and spiteful a lot of people who hate TLJ act that really stands out. The movie has genuine problems, yeah, but you can't declare it terrible just because it isn't what you wanted.

I was asking if the idea with force spirits is that they act the way a living person knows them, so Yoda's force spirit in TLJ acted like a troll because that's how Luke knew him and Anakin's force spirit could never set the truth about Vader straight to Kylo Ren because Kylo never knew Anakin.

Also Rian Johnson apparently considered having Luke consult Anakin's force spirit instead of Yoda's.

Yes, the point was that Yoda was trying to teach Luke how looks can be deceiving. After that Yoda stops acting like a goof.
