- 1:22it says on the shirt, baby, well, let's let's get let's get
- 1:26a good look at that shirt before you continue with the aka's I let you
- 1:30go hard. I love it. Yeah, that's it from my akas.
- 1:32I'm done after that. Okay, yes, we are here. We told
- 1:37y'all we would do it. We are going to talk about Star Wars Team.
- 1:42We'll come up with an interesting title later, but we are here to
- 1:46talk all things that Mandalorian. You know, your favorite podcasts. Ever,
- 1:51we got the first two epps of the season three of The Mandalorian. But
- 1:56I mean, were you excited about season three coming back? Yeah, definitely
- 2:00I was, even though um I had some reservations. Let's say, because
- 2:06after Book of Boba Fet turned into Mandalorian Part two, Part I guess that's
- 2:12two point five, yeah, two point five. And then it was also
- 2:16because not only did it turn into two point five, it kind of just
- 2:20erased everything that happened in one and two because it's like he drops off Grogrew
- 2:25with Luke. That's the last you see you if I'm on the Mandalorian.
- 2:30And so unless you're watching Book of Boba Fet, you don't even know that
- 2:34Grogrew is now back with the jin Jar the Mando because in Book of Boba
- 2:38Fet, you know, he goes and gets them back, and you know,
- 2:43Grogu didn't want to be a Jedi anymore. They called him up and
- 2:46I was like, yo, come get this kid. And I had to
- 2:47read about it because I refused to watch because I watched the first two episodes.
- 2:53It was like, nah, I mean, it was just it.
- 2:58It like the first two weren't best, but it had some good stuff in
- 3:00there, and then maybe and then the stuff No, I mean overall,
- 3:04it had some cool stuff. And then it turned into Mandalorian two point five,
- 3:08which was really cool but also really weird because it felt like they didn't
- 3:13know what to do a book of Bubble Fat and at the same time kind
- 3:16of maybe they don't know what to do with Mandalorian. They didn't know what
- 3:20to do with the book. Sure of red like at the first two episodes,
- 3:22if I fell asleep, and after that, I was like, I'm
- 3:24good. It just it didn't feel like something that was intrinsic to my understanding
- 3:30of the Star Wars universe. It just felt like some sideshow stuff and that
- 3:35and just and it was born again. I only watched the first two,
- 3:38so I couldn't get into it, so I didn't know about anything actually went
- 3:40on. I read about it later, I mean understandable, and you know,
- 3:46if you then it was really weird because it's like it's really weird,
- 3:51especially once you've seen the first episode of three, because it felt like that
- 3:57was a lot of table setting four three. You know that was like,
- 4:00okay, we're gonna set everything episode when we go to three, we can
- 4:03get right to it. But then episode one of three is like a whole
- 4:06lot of tables setting as well, where it's like, let's introduce all these
- 4:10new things, and let's jet Man go on this new side mission and this
- 4:13other side mission, and then you know, we'll give him a main mission
- 4:16as well for this season. But it's like you already kind of did that
- 4:23with book A Boba Fet because you already said, okay, here, this
- 4:26is what he's doing. He's back with grow Google boom boom boom. The
- 4:29other thing is his ship got blown up. I know that might have been
- 4:31surprising to you because now he's trying a new ship. He went and got
- 4:34a new ship and book A Boba Fet. This is here, here's the
- 4:39here's the thing, Ben, and this is what I'm trying to know or
- 4:43understand about the show. What is the purpose? Okay? And when I
- 4:47say what is the purpose, I mean what was the purpose past episode?
- 4:50To me? Season one at this point, it's suggests you see as a
- 4:55cash cow. Everyone loves Grogul, all right, everyone loves man though,
- 5:00okay, which I do. But are you existing to tell me a story
- 5:04or you're existing to make money? And I guess the answers in the question
- 5:10both, are you though, like it's final it's feeling it's okay. I
- 5:15gave you when we first started watching Mando, I think it was really season
- 5:19two. I gave you the the analogy that, hey, this felt very
- 5:25much like a game, like very much about you go, this is an
- 5:28RPG, and these are this is just a serious of side quest. Sure,
- 5:31but then to just keep doing it because that's just the thing to do.
- 5:35It feels very like Final Fantasy to me, like after a while,
- 5:39for example, usually Final Fancy example, it was just coming out because it
- 5:42was had to come out, like it was just part of the cycle of
- 5:46seasons, right their springfall, summer, you know, and it's just like
- 5:48all right, New Years, do you know it's time for Final Fancy it's
- 5:53time for final fans, like is there any true? And granted there are
- 5:58final fancy but like after wild, just felt like, Yo, you're just
- 6:00doing this because this is just part of the machine versus are you trying to
- 6:03give me more creativity something that I really truly needed in my life from an
- 6:12art form. And again, I understand this is entertainment, but I'm just
- 6:15like, yo, like it. It's I don't know, it's giving big,
- 6:21big side quest vibes and so far this is, this is given.
- 6:27This is it's one big side quest and I don't know if there's a main
- 6:30story here. I don't know. I've been thinking about this since I watched
- 6:35the first two episodes because I feel you a thousand percent right, and having
- 6:41watched the first two episodes, I even felt like the first episode is a
- 6:45lot of side quests that is immediately nullified by the second episode and pointlessly is
- 6:53like no one even checks my man on it. Then you saying that I
- 6:57gotta stop you, Okay, saying that you telling me they repeated what happened
- 7:01for two seasons in two episodes. You said you did one thing in two
- 7:05season and then completely nullify it. Now you're telling me they did it again
- 7:08one episode. I mean pretty much at least the only wayted one episode instead
- 7:14of you know, two whole seasons. And that's still the question because even
- 7:17people even check Mando in the in the first episode about it, right,
- 7:21They're like, yo, I thought you got rid of this kid, and
- 7:25now you're back with this kid. Yeah, And he's like, it's complicated,
- 7:29you know, And it's a cute little Facebook joke, you know whatever,
- 7:31But it's I mean, that's what I got from it all. They
- 7:35you know, the relationship status. Oh god, a Facebook joke in twenty
- 7:41twenty three. I mean, look, there was a lot of jokes in
- 7:43this that were like, in twenty twenty three, you know, that's using
- 7:46your head was another one that was like, I mean, you know,
- 7:49fam I mean, dog Arnold Trinny has said that one better, baby,
- 7:55that's using your head. Yeah, I would have said it better. That's
- 7:59using your head again. I this is this is more of an observation than
- 8:03a complaint. It's just because I like the next person. I love seeing
- 8:07Grog, I love man though, I love the relationship. It's just what's
- 8:13the reason, Like I really felt, I really felt season one or season
- 8:18two, it was done. I felt like Luke fucking skip Walker took the
- 8:24baby Luke and I was like, oh yeah, that's like to me it
- 8:30felt and again there was there was clear allusions to it. It felt like
- 8:35in Rogue one, the fucking Big Bad or Big Good, whatever the fuck
- 8:39you want to call them. The thing appears to end the story and it's
- 8:43like, God, bam, I don't need the ship and ship no more.
- 8:48You don't gotta tell me how somebody grew up on a salt flats of
- 8:52you know, Raider two, Like I don't need to know that side ship
- 8:56right, like you got me to where I needed to be cool, Let's
- 8:58go to an story with the wealth and the breath and the death of any
- 9:03story you can fucking tell. In Star Wars, I was just like,
- 9:07why are we coming back here? Like okay? Because the show started off
- 9:11obviously as a homage to Lone Wolf and Cub. So when you get rid
- 9:18of the Cub, do you just do the Lone Wolf story and the story's
- 9:22over? Why? I guess why? Or you just called a rap after
- 9:26two seasons of what you were saying, they they did it. To me,
- 9:31it's like you do literally you brought yourself to the end of the matrix,
- 9:37you reinsert itself to the end of the matrix. It was not supposed
- 9:39to reset. They fucking reset the matrix. Like I was just like,
- 9:43we're doing this again. It's just I just I'm like, what is this
- 9:48man's game right now? What I'm saying, when does it end? And
- 9:52that's why I'm like, it doesn't. It doesn't feel like a natural continuance
- 9:56of what would potentially happen with these characters. It feels like the machine said,
- 10:01give me money, right, the machine said, this punts money.
- 10:07We gotta keep this going. Put another NEO in there, we gotta keep
- 10:11this shit going. That's what I just that, and that's what I'm saying,
- 10:15Like, yo, and that's what I mean. Am I happy to
- 10:16see them? Yeah? Sure, But it's also just like this feels disingenuous,
- 10:20like y'all eraced several and it's not like y'all at least so far,
- 10:26y'all eracing and and took away with what happened to say, Oh, not
- 10:31a story is going to continue, but you're not giving me nothing like that's
- 10:33worth continuing. Not only are you not giving me nothing, that's Worth,
- 10:37continuing, Well, Okay, that's debate far, so far, because I
- 10:43have a theory about what this season could be about that would redeem even these
- 10:48first two episodes. You gotta redeem, like you got a lot of work
- 10:50to redeem. But it wouldn't take too much, all right, But I'll
- 10:54get to that in a second, right But right now, it feels,
- 11:01yeah, it feels completely pointless. Right now. It's like they didn't ignore
- 11:05little School like looks like they ignored the old Pluky like the fucking Granddaddy version.
- 11:11I mean, I figured that was the end of little Grogrew right there.
- 11:15I figured Grogu had survived one Jedi temple slaughtering, only to die when
- 11:18the next Jedi temple gets burned. Yeah no, no, no, excuse
- 11:24me, Yeah he survived that slaughter the young correct grog slat vibe that.
- 11:28But I figured Grogu died when um Kylo Gren went Buck and Grogrew was over
- 11:35there, you know, like what yeah, remember, you know, Kylo
- 11:39Ring goes Buck at Lutes New School and at some point I forgot about and
- 11:43Grogrew was supposed to be there, but Grogrew dipped out of that. Wouldn't
- 11:46be a baby at that point. No, but he would still be there
- 11:50and he'd be like, Yo, what the fuck Kylo, and you know
- 11:56what the man y, Yeah the fuck? What the fuck? Uh?
- 12:03Yeah, I just I just I you know, I'd like to interrogate,
- 12:09but I I still have a question, like what is Mando's playing? Okay,
- 12:16like, no, Mando's playing right now. It's like, Yo,
- 12:18I'm gonna get my Mando on. You know, I'm gonna be a Mandalorian
- 12:20again. But what is your playing with this kid? That's just that he's
- 12:24just his father. So they just drove all together for the rest of the
- 12:28time. Yeah, yeah, like and that's what I'm saying, Like,
- 12:31it's just the mission was done. The mission protect the kid, delivered to
- 12:37the to this Guywalker. Okay, the mission is over? What mission?
- 12:41There is no main mission anymore. These are all the side you are.
- 12:45You have. The game is at seventy five percent, and you're going back
- 12:48to the areas you completed already to get all the little side shit you missed
- 12:52the first time. So you could do a hunting but that's not the main
- 12:56thing. But on that note, would Joel like, you know, let's
- 13:00say he gets Ellie. You know, speaking of everyone who watches and listens
- 13:03to our Last of Us the Lack of Us podcast, make sure you check
- 13:07it out on all four four all Nerds feeds. But with Joel, Let's
- 13:11say he gets Ellie to wherever they're supposed to get to for the fiftieth time,
- 13:15you know, Princess and another castle. He gets into the final castle,
- 13:18would he be like I, you know, and then dip or would
- 13:20he sit around and wait for Ellie to be experimented on, you know,
- 13:24to the end of time. I think he would sit around and wait.
- 13:30I think he was sitting around a way. So the fact that you know,
- 13:33my man couldn't sit around and wait at the Jedi Temple, he had
- 13:35to be like, yo, fuck that then all right? And the kid
- 13:37don't want to say that we out kids, come with me. This is
- 13:41my kid again. I just felt a level of disingenuineness of this is a
- 13:46powerful kid who I don't know what this is disrengenuiness in terms of this isn't
- 13:50something that happened to the characters because it was naturally happening. It's a machine.
- 13:58Uh, executive have said, no, let's keep it. Let's run
- 14:01this ship back. Let's spend the block on this ship several times over,
- 14:05like that's how I feel. It feels like an executives said, no,
- 14:09we've seen the block on this it just because again like the levels of emotion
- 14:15that went into it. Again, Fuck Lou Scott Walker, how about that
- 14:18off his helmet, Nitta declared all everlasting love for this thing, and then
- 14:24just to be like, all right, be back to it. What No,
- 14:28Let's go back to Lou Strautwalker for a second. Remember, Louse straut
- 14:31Walker just witnessed the death of Darth Vader, his father, right, who
- 14:35had turned to the dark side because he was a kid who was not trained
- 14:39well in the usage of the force and did not have the high ground.
- 14:43And so now you have had and so now you have Brogu, who is
- 14:48a kid very powerful on the use of the force, and you're just trying
- 14:52to be like, ah, you go about your way and figure out.
- 15:00Let's talk about the actual episodes, all right, Yeah, we saw episode
- 15:09we saw episode one and two. Pay Dough plus guys return as then Jarwin
- 15:13Carl Weathers is back as Grief Cargo. You got a whole bunch of other
- 15:18niggas in here, um uh shot out boat. Let me just say this
- 15:26first. The only reason I'm still watching this ship. I love Bokatan as
- 15:33a character. I personally love Katie Stackhol, the actor playing Bokatan, because
- 15:41go ahead, no, I just I keep telling you Clone Wars and Rebels.
- 15:45Oh, I know, I know, I gotta. I got your
- 15:46love for this woman would be like every time exponential because I know it.
- 15:52Like the reason why she looked so distraught and why she is so sick,
- 15:58you know at this nigga walking around all the fucking sword is it because of
- 16:03and and I will say that the revelation in episode two of Mandalorian of Mandor
- 16:10Mandalore fuck yeah, yeah, yeah, when you've seen it in Rebels,
- 16:17yeah. And like Clone Wars when you saw it before the bombings. Yeah.
- 16:21And I will say that this is also, as Benaman's pointing out,
- 16:22like if you have that additional content of Clone, this hits even more differently,
- 16:29which is kind of a problem at the same time. But listen,
- 16:33let me finish about Katie real quick. Katie sack Off, as asked the
- 16:37actor for four four Bowl, kat Katie always had a soft spot in my
- 16:41heart because she plays Starbuck on the two thousands Ballots Bastard Lactor. The two
- 16:45thousands has always been in my top like one of the top shows, like
- 16:49fi shows, like of all time for me. So and I always loved
- 16:53her, so I've never forgotten her face or anything she popped up since then
- 16:56I would be like in her face. So for her to do this,
- 16:59I was like, yo, oh, that's my nigga. So I'm really
- 17:02happy she's here. Yeah. Well as Bogaton, that's because I never watched
- 17:04Battlestar I should. I know it's a classic, but Bogatan is up there
- 17:11with a Soka Tano like it. It's Rebels and Clone Wars are just some
- 17:18of the best Star Wars ever. And they created these characters and even the
- 17:22way they're reconciling the whole idea, because when you watch Clone Wars and Rebels,
- 17:27the Mandalorians take their helmets off all the goddamn time, there no problem.
- 17:32So how they reconciled it with these children or the Watch being this whole
- 17:36separate little cult that Jin Jarn is part of is so ill. And even
- 17:41the Dark Saber, all of this stuff all comes from this. So yeah,
- 17:45there's this additional context, and Dave Feloni has been telling this larger story
- 17:49for a long time. He's the man behind all of this. And actually
- 17:53saw a really hilarious meme about this, right because and that's one of the
- 17:57kind of issues and it's like it works to a point and then it detracts
- 18:02from it to a point. So it's like the good, the bad,
- 18:03and the ugly. There's a meme, you know, it's like and Or
- 18:07and it's uh, you know, Cassie and walking alone, you know that
- 18:10shot of him walking alone, and then it was like and Or, I
- 18:11feel was done by Dave Feloni, and it was Cassie and and then just
- 18:15a bunch of other things from every other show, just all around, because
- 18:22like that's all this is about. Like we see the space whales and episode
- 18:26two that were in Rebels and just yeah, there these dirty space whales,
- 18:32these interstellar way Yeah, yeah, there's all this, you know, that's
- 18:36all stuff from Rebels, and so it's like, wow, you're like me
- 18:38watching I'm like, oh shit, it's space whales. That's cool. But
- 18:41at the same time, I'm just like, yeah, but Easter, I
- 18:45gotter Easter. I ain't gonna give me a story, you know, like
- 18:48that's all I'm saying. Then it just feels very psyche questy and and perhaps
- 18:52that's what people are looking for, but it's like, what's why are people?
- 18:57What are we doing? Where are we going? What's the point I
- 19:00saw someone saying this is true the first season, I mean, the second
- 19:04season started off the same way. It was a lot of side question nonsense,
- 19:08and then it turned into a really dope second season that we all loved.
- 19:11Correct, So there's hope and all right, before we go back to
- 19:15the episodes we are still off them, let me say that is my one
- 19:19hope for this season, right because I feel like this season is about the
- 19:23Mando Jen learning that this holt he's grown up in is not the way.
- 19:30You know that it is kind of a hot mess, and that would hopefully
- 19:37explain a lot of the foolishness, because honestly, this man comes off like
- 19:42this a pure silly idiot in these first two episodes. Like I don't want
- 19:48to spoil too much, especially about the second one because I know y'all haven't
- 19:52seen that win, but there's just the second one. There is so many
- 19:55poor choices. Yeah, and he has to be saved like we're not gonna
- 20:00spoil like specific story arcs or anything like that, but we're just gonna speak
- 20:04two terms about poor poor Jos, like like like the way shit feels in
- 20:11the characters of things that we'll talk about that. But and it made me
- 20:14think because right, normally, in a you know, dramatic series, you
- 20:17know, comedy, whatever, your lead protagonists supposed to be someone you can
- 20:21rally behind, someone who mates choices that you know, move the story along,
- 20:26etc. But I'm also wondering, is this like kind of a meta
- 20:32flip on it or commentary on that, because we're following a man who's kind
- 20:37of like ridiculously foolish, Like I mean, it's not even felt like he
- 20:41was fo I mean, I think, oh my god, in the second
- 20:45episode, this man mates like he almost gets himself killed twice. I know.
- 20:49But listen, I wonder if it's so much jest foolishness or just foolishness
- 20:53for forsake of religion, right, because there's not a way of the mando
- 20:59is it's religious in and he's he's just following it under faith alone. And
- 21:03it's just like, so are we going to explore that's the question. Maybe
- 21:08I mean, we're witness. I will let you guys know now, like
- 21:11the first two episodes does not answer that question whatsoever. And now I understand
- 21:15why they gave us the first two episodes, because it's just like, first
- 21:17two episodes probably don't mean shit in the grand scheme. I'm really hoping that's
- 21:21what it is, because all of the season is like this, and I'm
- 21:23just like, what's the point. Let's talk all right, let's talk about
- 21:26all right? This is something going back to something I liked about the first
- 21:30episode, right, all right. The first episode opens up with this really
- 21:33dope scene of the armor or you know, making a new helmet, and
- 21:37you are led to think that this is a flashback and they are making the
- 21:41helmet for young Mando because there's this whole ceremony they put the helmet on this
- 21:48kid for the first time, who needs a haircut before he's gonna put this
- 21:51helmet on. If he's never gonna take this off. Second, I'm freaking
- 21:57the first I don't listen, this was so blurry at this point. All
- 22:03right, Well, anyway, in this scene, you're like to believe that
- 22:07you know this is that, but then there's just like all this foolishness that
- 22:11happens in this same scene. It was just like, it makes these the
- 22:19Mandalorians just like idiots. And beyond that, like I said, not only
- 22:23does it make them look like idiots once again, it goes back to I
- 22:26guess maybe that's for this setting up, because you know, our league character
- 22:30acts like a complete idiot all right now. This is something that I know
- 22:34happens in the day the first episode. Right in the first episode, my
- 22:37man goes to grieve Cargo, and it's like, yo, fam, I
- 22:41need I g eleven back. The only droid I can trust. Even though
- 22:45I hated this nigga up until the moment he blew his hands up for me.
- 22:49But you know now he's the only one I can trust. Everybody in
- 22:52their Ma'm gona tell him. You know what the fuck, dog girl,
- 22:55what the fuck? You can get any droid dog, any droid, any
- 22:59dry, any droid, Cary, I'm gonna get eleven back. I'm gonna
- 23:07get this murder and ass assassin Droidggy coming back coming the backup in this hope
- 23:15is it? No? Yeah? And they get this whole back. It
- 23:22turns into the terminator in like the cheapest Oh my God, yes, we've
- 23:26all seen we've all seen Terminator John five, Like we've all seen it.
- 23:30We get it. So it's a murderous robot. So it's now it's like
- 23:36the Terminator grown all right, So you know, then he makes the dumb
- 23:38eighties joke about the you know that's usual your head like, but but not
- 23:42only that been just now that I'm thinking of it, this ship that you
- 23:47said earlier where one episode two Erasist episode one and half said before, remember
- 23:53we said before this season, you know, the one season we race the
- 23:56other two seasons literally the last thirty minutes the racists. What happened in the
- 24:00first thirty minutes because all that fucking searching going on for Iggy doesn't matter because
- 24:08he just gets a different joys And that's the end of that. Like I
- 24:11was like, so what were we doing? What were we doing? What
- 24:18were we doing? What? What? What? What was the reason?
- 24:25But and then back to grief Cargo, who was like, yo, fam,
- 24:26why don't you just retire? Why don't you just set up with your
- 24:30you know, your kid. I'll give you the nice land, he says,
- 24:33set up like your boy Thanos did. He's some plantings. Look at
- 24:38the Purple Hills and live life look off the fat of the land, and
- 24:44I get it. He's like no, I, but it's like he doesn't.
- 24:48Does he want to leave Demandalians because he has the dart Saber, right,
- 24:52which is why both Katan looks at this man like he is utterly crazy,
- 24:56because she knows that you can't just deal the Dark Saber to someone,
- 25:00right, That's the thing. It cannot just be taken. It has been
- 25:03fought for, and it shows that, Yeah, still don't use it.
- 25:08He's still learning to use it. She damn sure knows how to use it.
- 25:11Both Katan gets busy with the Dark Saber facts, so it's like,
- 25:17does what does what does he want? He wants he wants to be back
- 25:22in his little colt, who is all damn near dead at this point,
- 25:26remember that, Like there's you know, it's a few of them, you
- 25:30know, still standing. They're trying to get a new kid in. They
- 25:32getting served and ate it up left and right. So I don't like that,
- 25:36lady that's like the head of the colt. I don't like that,
- 25:37lady. Armor, the armor them, what's you call the armor? That's
- 25:42her name? Okay, don't like it. Questionable, very questionable, and
- 25:48Favor and them have talked about that, like is the armor, what does
- 25:51she know? What do they know? What are they? You know?
- 25:53Are they leading them right? But do they or are they trapped on the
- 25:57same thing? Are they just part of this cult? And so they're like,
- 26:02Yo, this is the way it was, This is the way it
- 26:03was. Your fame, you gotta go bathe in the water has been atoka
- 26:06fam you know that's the only way that's Yeah, I just I don't know.
- 26:11I always feel like, especially when it's like it seems very uh,
- 26:15what's the word, it's very predictable that the person in charge knows really knows
- 26:22what's up, and it's just trying to keep the wheels turning. Like I
- 26:27feel like she knows what up and she's just playing the game. That'd be
- 26:30white. Yeah, that'd be too predictable. I would like it if she
- 26:33just is blinded by it just like everyone else. It's all she knows.
- 26:37So she's like, yo, we gotta keep this girl is Then how did
- 26:41you become the leader? Like there's the leader always knows something someone else doesn't
- 26:45know. Well most of them is dead. Yeah, that's how she became
- 26:48the leader. All the others did facts, so let's said, let's the
- 26:56things I like. And again I'm just trying to keep it not spoilery,
- 27:00but just generally, like you know, we talked about Bokatan the God,
- 27:03like y'all gonna see her get busy as Ben I mean said it's gonna be.
- 27:08It's just I just like her. I just like that character so much.
- 27:12I like, I like the presence of every time Bokatans comes on screen,
- 27:17there's presence and there's reality and there's all this other stuff. Fine,
- 27:19whatever, Carl weathers fucking hilarious the way he's carrying on. The man,
- 27:26what do you call him a high? He's my high council whatever his name
- 27:29whatever his title is, like brand High, brand high, whatever name like
- 27:33he the niggas a pimp. Okay. The man is when you see him
- 27:40again and he walking around like you know, he got the world right,
- 27:44So that's cool. Grogue. He has droids carrying his cape, you know,
- 27:51shout out to that. And I loved it because when he comes down
- 27:53the stairs, you hear him plump down the stairs behind him in the house.
- 27:57I hold up, those are little too droids carrying the edges of his
- 28:02tape balling, and it's very ball it's very It reminds me of when I
- 28:07went to the Bad Boys concert a few years back, and and Diddy and
- 28:11one other person had on this black mink and it had like a twenty foot
- 28:15train and they had two women holding the end. And I just thought it
- 28:19was the funniest thing. That's what it reminds me of. I'm amazing,
- 28:23it was actually kind of cool. Um continuing, Grogu, cutest fucking thing,
- 28:29this cutest fucking thing. There's some weird shit, chilly shit happens,
- 28:33like, there's some weird practical effect that happens a few times where I'm just
- 28:34like, this doesn't look right. But I word to that later. Yeah,
- 28:37I get into later. But Grogu just I love grog Fine. Getting
- 28:41tired that little man. Okay, it's like it's you know, it's running.
- 28:48It's okay, Okay, yeah, it's fair. Um but no wait,
- 28:52no, I can't lie though, because in everisode two, Rogu pulled
- 28:56some moves that made me love him all over you like, even I feel
- 29:00like it's not it's not I feel like even when you think like I'm over
- 29:04this little thing. He does something that's cute, and it's like, all
- 29:07right, I understand, he's the baby. He's the baby. Uh.
- 29:14I like you anytime they in space and some space shit is happening, I
- 29:18liked it. Like, you know, we're talking about dog fighting in space,
- 29:22space fights, all that shit is great to me. I love seeing
- 29:25instant deaths, you know in the galaxy. That's shit. That's just mando
- 29:29bodies, like seven or eight people in the first episode, like and and
- 29:34and it's quick ba he blaming on it. So that was fine. I
- 29:41mean, he has dropped them pirates with no problem with left four bodies in
- 29:45the street right there. And Grief is like, yo, send the droid
- 29:48to pick this trash up. I'm trying. He literally said that this tras
- 30:00this was as I'm thinking of it, I'm kind of leaning towards it this
- 30:04like, but this is more of a like in it. It's like,
- 30:07and this is my question to you've been I mean, is this supposed to
- 30:08feel more like the original Star Wars trilogies, just in terms of the level
- 30:14of effects and the way it looks like it's supposed to it's new old look,
- 30:18because like, for example, this these two episodes particularly, they pull
- 30:22on a lot of the the beach I don't even want to call the beach
- 30:26tree, but the the the different races of aliens that you've seen, and
- 30:29like the original trilogy, like almost I feel like, damn, they're all
- 30:33of them popped up all of a sudden two episodes. Yeah, but also
- 30:37we see aliens from the last dry Walker. Okay, that too, but
- 30:44yeah and and yeah, babble fricks right right, and you see these these
- 30:47beings all like pop up like literally, it's just you just turn around,
- 30:49They're there and everywhere. And my point to order is you see, like
- 30:55there's clearly lots of puppet tree, right, Like Grobu himself is a puppet,
- 30:57and I mean and when I say a puppet, I mean literal is
- 31:00a puppet. Right, It's a puppet machine. And and you know it's
- 31:04practical effects being used more so than I mean, there's digital effects too,
- 31:07but you know, practical effects being used. But it has this like fake
- 31:11look to it. But I could tell like it's purposeful fake. And I'm
- 31:15just like, are they're trying to make it seem new old because of the
- 31:19time period it takes place in the in the Star Wars timeline. There was
- 31:26like a mix of practical and CGI in this and I think one thing is,
- 31:32um we really I have not really talked about and Or that much during
- 31:36this review, thankfully, um. But one thing that and Or is doing
- 31:41that the rest of Mando and Bobo Fat have not been doing is they're shooting
- 31:45on sets and not in I can't remember the actual name for it. They
- 31:49have a name for the dome garage thing that they're shooting all these shows,
- 31:55and basically they're they're shooting Mando and Bobo Fat in these domes. Done the
- 31:59dome, it's basically a thunder the theme that's covered in screens so you can
- 32:02create any background or anything you want. That Yeah, super cool. But
- 32:07at the same time, when you watch and Or and see something that actually
- 32:12uses sets and other CGI tricks to make these larger than life things, it
- 32:17really blows it away. Man. It makes it where like Boba Fat and
- 32:22Mando look I and then I will say though, I really love the practical
- 32:28effects on like the Pirates, like the makeup on the Pirates, incredible,
- 32:32incredible makeup on the Pirates especially, I want to see that swamping Grand Pirates.
- 32:37They had show up for like, but you know what that was.
- 32:39That was the nigga from Pirates of the Caribbean. It's a space version,
- 32:45same thing. It was the same nigga, yeah, covered in vines instead
- 32:47of you know, the tentacles. Yeah, yep. So I want to
- 32:52see him again because I love the effects on him and all that. But
- 32:55then like you had the little monkey lizard things, which one of from his
- 33:00name Selatious Crumb, and Selatious prom was Jab of the Huts. Yeah,
- 33:05I know, Selatious Crumb. I mean, look, Star Wars has the
- 33:07best names of all time. There's no contest, you know. As Chico
- 33:13Leo asked anyone about some of the more ridiculous ones, Mellow was telling me
- 33:16some one time. I can't even believe. But Selatious Crumb is the little
- 33:21monster lizard monkey thing that we see a group of them sitting in the trees.
- 33:27But one of those is Job of the Hut's little dude. And so
- 33:30it really like that's when Star Wars gets weird, right, because it's like
- 33:35that dude is seems to be intelligent in Return of the Jedi, but there's
- 33:38a bunch of them just hanging out and the monkeys. So yeah, that's
- 33:45why when Star Wars sometimes it's like they just want to insert things and it's
- 33:47like, but did you really think that through? And that's why I said,
- 33:51kind of like Jabbath Hud just have a monkey sitting we think who we
- 33:54thought was intelligent because there was a monkey. But that's why I said liking
- 33:58this like because it's like it's like, on the one hand, I write,
- 34:00y'all, you're trying to insert all the stuff and east your eggs and
- 34:01whatever whatever, But then I'm just like, does that make sense? You
- 34:05just you just threw that, And it feels like the episode stuff like did
- 34:07you just throw that in there just for fu for chits and giggles, Like
- 34:10I don't like the babble people who I didn't bother the Google to learn what
- 34:15the alien races like, seriously, dot work going to see them again?
- 34:17But I forgot the name until you said it. Yeah, I don't know
- 34:22what the race of the aliens is, but babble. And it was like
- 34:25that was the one thing that most people liked about Rise in the Star.
- 34:28I loved Bob. It was like, whatever, you know, I guess,
- 34:31so I didn't need to see a whole group of them fixing Nigia.
- 34:35You speaking and speaking? What was they just gutter talk? I mean that?
- 34:39Yeah, Like I like that. See hilarious just seeing you know,
- 34:44Mando all cramped up in there with the Yeah, I gotta talk. I
- 34:47don't know, you know, jungle music. That's say, next a pigeon
- 34:53English? Like, what are you saying? But I understand the perfe But
- 35:00I guess that was a jet right. That was a joke, yeah,
- 35:02because everyone understood him perfectly. But yeah, that's I don't know. Wait
- 35:07did you just say he was speaking? Yeah, the whole Caribbeans coming after
- 35:16you better seaway episode with your boy with Chet Hanks. Oh yeah, yes,
- 35:25like a dead ass right now. But uh, I'm a Chet Hank
- 35:30stand over here, so you know, keep going, brother, Um the
- 35:37man's living is life on an unapologetically How do we get from Babu Frick to
- 35:45Chess? Okay, we got to get back into I mean, is this
- 35:54is our reaction right now indicative of how we felt about these two episodes?
- 35:59Man, it was just there like all that time trying to get kept movie.
- 36:07You know what that's I think that's what it was. Something. It
- 36:10was time wasting it didn't feel like I just wanted it to make it worth
- 36:15while. Y'all niggas ignored any race shit that happened to to very forcefully bring
- 36:22these two back together. Okay, give me a reason. Nah. And
- 36:27it's like, nah, at least the first two episodes were just fucking around.
- 36:30Right now, I'm like, why are you wasting my time? And
- 36:31I really to your point, Bent, I really hope because the other season
- 36:36started like this, that next time we see them, it's like, Okay,
- 36:38there's a reason it wasn't mentioned on moth getting and I'm like, okay,
- 36:44that he's gonna come back. Oh no, no, no, no,
- 36:45that's no. That he locked up. That's the end of that.
- 36:49Okay, then what then okay, well then fuck it, Like okay,
- 36:52both of time, the whole show can be well could I don't be if
- 36:58don't be about bowing his beat? That eventually gonna turn to be because Bow
- 37:00wants that saber, you know, and she gonna get tired of this dude
- 37:05fucking around doing nothing with it, so she gonna had to take it back
- 37:07at some point. So that's gonna be the problem. So Bows, the
- 37:09audience just I'm tired of doing nothing. I'm tired of this Grandpa. There
- 37:15is a straight up look. I can't remember which episode Bow gives him the
- 37:19vicious side eye, and I was fully green because yeah, it's episode two
- 37:23right when she gives him this look. Right, I'm just like, oh
- 37:25my god, you are reading my mind right now, shorty, because this
- 37:29man is a pure idiot and both has to save him twice in episode two,
- 37:35twice in one episode, like he'd be dead, the show would be
- 37:40over and it would be the Bokaton show if she didn't not to save this
- 37:45man. We're trying to much prefer to watch at this point the Book of
- 37:52Bokaton featuring Grogu, because I just can't get over, Like, Okay,
- 37:59I get what his plan is, and I get what the show's playing for
- 38:01him first season is his plan is to redeem himself, redeem his sins.
- 38:07He's an apostate. He's got to fix it. But and you just don't
- 38:10bring this kid along with you. Is the kid about to be a Mandolorian?
- 38:14Is that what it is? You're like, okay, I could be
- 38:15a Mandlorian and then the kid could be one too. Well. Well,
- 38:19from what we see the kid is like, again, that's just that's just
- 38:22bring your child to work day. I feel because it's grogol Grogo's a little
- 38:25self sufficient now, Like yeah, but all kids, you gotta come into
- 38:29this, you know you don't. He's a Mando, right, he's his
- 38:31son. They got to come up in it. Gotta get the helmet,
- 38:35bro. Yes, But I thought the way Mando treats him like, he
- 38:39treats him like he's his own, I guess r He's not going to force
- 38:45him into the Mando way. He's just his dead. But the Mandos are
- 38:49not a race. They are just he you know what I mean. It's
- 38:51yeah, I don't you know, I don't know all races get forced into
- 38:53this trope. Baby, get down or lay down when your whole world's destroyed?
- 39:04What world? Or no, no man, but it's been destroyed.
- 39:08That's what I'm saying. Like you ain't got no home base, nigga,
- 39:10Like y'all, y'all got no flagship store? How are you doing this?
- 39:15They got they got a cave in a beach. Okay, that castle or
- 39:21the castle that bo katana is in that hallway. For anyone who's seen rebels
- 39:24and clone wars shit goes down in that hallway. Boy, so you already
- 39:30know when they showed you this hallway is gonna go down again, making me
- 39:34feel like this is commercial to go watch Clone Wars like I would get more
- 39:37out of it if I just I mean, you would, but you wouldn't
- 39:43because you would get like, damn, I've seen this before and better,
- 39:46you know, like, oh yeah, that'd be the problem because it's like
- 39:50you get all these references. Sure, but so far at least, and
- 39:54like I said, it's so far, you know, we guy will have
- 39:58to see how this season turns out, because look, there's the first season
- 40:02of Rebels, you know, to a lot of people was trying to shaky.
- 40:05I loved it first season. The Clone Wars is super shaky, you
- 40:08know, so these things take time. Sometimes I didn't, I mean,
- 40:10I felt all bad Batch and Pop saying that's pretty fire. Now. So
- 40:15maybe the first two episodes of Mandalorian season three is a lot of rehash or
- 40:20retreat. As I'm thinking through it, a ridiculous amount. It's throwing in
- 40:25easter eggs and references, and I'm not sure there's a true point. Besides,
- 40:30hey, we're back, look at us and remember me remember, Okay,
- 40:35But I also feel like, why waste? Like, there's not that
- 40:37many episodes, right, it's always nine episodes a season or something like that.
- 40:40Why are we wasting two of them? Like, and I'm gonna look
- 40:44at something real quick, but like what And that's the problem too, because
- 40:47not only are you like, remember me, remember me, remember me?
- 40:51A lot of this remember me, you'll never see again. We are never
- 40:53gonna see I g eleven again. I honestly thought that crush his head.
- 40:57You'd be like, all right, we gotta fix them and get them right.
- 41:00No, that's the end of that question, is there? That was
- 41:00it? Okay? You know we're never gonna see Grief card again. I
- 41:05doubt well probably see these pirates again. They seem to be the big you
- 41:08know, in eight episodes. My apologies, wow Eeason, so you've already
- 41:14burned two che there's only six modis che but not and for abab we know
- 41:21the next six are fucking phenomenal. But I'm like, but we wasted,
- 41:25we wasted two precious episode. It felt I'm not gonna hold you. It
- 41:30felt like a waste, and a lot of the shit that occurred across the
- 41:34episode could have just occurred in one. It was it was shit that could
- 41:37have been caught out. We didn't need to see. This was the quantum
- 41:42Mania of the disappoint Oh yeah, big hype, but disappointing. And it's
- 41:49a time waste, like a lot of time waste, because the things that
- 41:52happened in quantum Mania pretty much happened in Loki already. We've already seen this
- 41:58happen once out out focus on was good and you were right Ben when they
- 42:09were making the when you said earlier in this in our review, when they
- 42:14were making the scene where they were making a helmet that was episode one,
- 42:16Oh good, talking talk about it. Why the hell were these idiots on
- 42:20the beach with this like they didn't know that big ass dragon, that big
- 42:23ass dragon, the alligator dragon ship had to have been there for a long
- 42:29time, ain't the way you didn't know this big ass dragon was out there,
- 42:34So you just don't have your ceremony right there with your fun the greatest
- 42:38warriors in the universe. How many of them got killed in that scene?
- 42:44I didn't. It just felt like you said, it made them looking competent,
- 42:46and made them looking competent, competent, but Okay, so what you
- 42:50know what, I even give it to them. That happened sometimes, right,
- 42:52No, listen, you know a star Wars and fucking alligator pops up.
- 42:58Okay, whatever the fuck, let's let's let it n I let it
- 43:00rock. But the way it was handled just seemed abominable, like it was
- 43:07just abysmal. I'm just like I thought, b y'all niggas is the greatest
- 43:10in the y'all have a hundred job this shop that day. And granted,
- 43:15yes, this was a big motherfucker, but I thought, y'all handles yah,
- 43:17y'all, y'all, I felt like he's seen them handle with and we
- 43:22seemed Mando himself handle shit worse by himself, by himself and maybe with one
- 43:27other person helpened. There was fifty of these niggas. It was like ste
- 43:32day. I was like, what is going on? Left and right?
- 43:37People getting served? Like the right niggas getting eight all right, I was
- 43:39just like, how is this hat? And that's another thing, y'all all
- 43:43got jet packs? Y'all got jet packs? After twenty niggas got they said,
- 43:51take to disguise? What that like? I understand because the thing the
- 43:58alligator was coming close real fast, all right, and y'all trying to get
- 44:00the young ones back understood, the young the little niggas ain't got the jet
- 44:05packs. Maybe okay, but what about what is going on? Have you
- 44:08ever been somewhere right there? But like, yo, there's sharts in that
- 44:10water right and you're like, all right, I'm you know, I'm not
- 44:15going in that bitch, like like these niggas of obviously no Doddie, Like
- 44:22the levels of incompetence to take a little kid out there who is not ready
- 44:28for nothing where you gotta know, this thing is huge. It would make
- 44:31so much noise even if it never surfaced, you would be like, yo,
- 44:35there's something in that fucking we cannot fuck with fam. Nope, these
- 44:38niggas is just like whatever. I've seen a pattern on the shoulder watching where
- 44:45like characters are uncharacteristically doing really stupid shit and it's just like what and it's
- 44:52and it's manufactured drama, but it doesn't even feel like drama. Just feels
- 44:57silly. It feels silly. But this is even more silly because I at
- 45:00least in that case and case and the last of us, it's the villains,
- 45:02even though it's been twice in one season. We've had these idiotic villains,
- 45:06so it's really starting to make no sense. But this is really weird
- 45:09because it's just so unusual to see your protagonist be a complete moron. So
- 45:15why y'all get served like that? The people he wants to be a part
- 45:19of our complete morons and everyone looks at them like they're complete morons. Both
- 45:24Katon I love that. That was one of my favorite moments in this series
- 45:28when both Katan first met him and she was like, Oh, you're one
- 45:30of them. Oh my god, you're one of those morons who walks around
- 45:36with their helmet on all day and talks about this is the way, you
- 45:39know what I mean? So that was like when she first met him in
- 45:42season two. That was one of my favorite moments. That had also resolved
- 45:45that big question that all of us have been watching, was like, wait
- 45:47a minute, what's this? This is the way? Where's all this bullshit
- 45:51come from? They ain't never said none of that in Clone Wars or Rebels,
- 45:53and then suddenly this dude talked about this is the way and he never
- 45:55takes his helmet off. I've seen everybody take the helmet off, so that
- 45:59was such a great moment because she's like, look at this idiot, And
- 46:01so it's so weird to watch a show where the hero is like constantly people
- 46:06are like looking at this idiot grief cargo, like God, damn fam retire
- 46:09you idiot. No, you're gonna go back and be with those idiots over
- 46:13there they're getting their kids eating up by dragons, Like I like, that's
- 46:19what. But the sad thing is this is the same scene we saw before
- 46:22with the tusting raiders and the crate dragon. We've already seen him come through
- 46:29and save some people from a big ass dragon. Retread and rehash. Did
- 46:34I not say that this is geting to be thor thunder levels of no,
- 46:39don't say that. No, no, No, that's the bottom of the
- 46:42barrel. Can't it can't getting there. I'm not saying it's there yet,
- 46:45but it's episodes. We can't say that, I know. But the level
- 46:50of insulting your intelligence, like like the whole I gam My man wasted all
- 46:55that, Like okay, let's go back to that, right. This man
- 46:59hates Droy like, cannot trust them, hates them all. Sure, this
- 47:02one self destructed in a lava pit. Remember that right, was self destructed
- 47:10on behalf of yeah, yeah, to save to save you, but no,
- 47:15let's we forget self destructed in a lava pit. And so you go
- 47:21back to that like that's the one. I'm gonna put that together. Hey
- 47:24man. He saw the statue, was like, oh, we could rebuild
- 47:28this in a lava pit. Self destructed, and somehow you think you're gonna
- 47:32put that one together, and then you don't trust no droids for shit.
- 47:36But as soon as this one don't work out for you, you're like,
- 47:38all right, fucking I'll just say the netroid. You know, the next
- 47:40droid. Somebody tries to sell me. It was bizarre, and it was
- 47:44like clearly like not a good choice, and it's like, well, this
- 47:46is the one I'm gonna take. And I'm like, are you poor?
- 47:50Like I don't understand you have no other choice? I guess I just I
- 47:53thought you have. I thought you? Are you? Like how you he
- 48:00was acting like a poor and it's just I thought you whatever, And also
- 48:06like to be friends with someone like Grief Cargo, who is high magistrate who
- 48:10literally is telling you he's rolling though, and he says to him, as
- 48:15you mentioned earlier, whatever the fuck you want, I'm just give it to
- 48:17you. You couldn't go back to Man and said, even wait a minute,
- 48:22Grief said I would give you any motherfucking one. I would give you
- 48:25a brand new, shiny whatever the fuck you need. He says no.
- 48:30And then after I'm a poor and then after Iggy don't work out, you
- 48:37don't turn around back to Grief and be like, well you know about that.
- 48:39Uh you know about the loaner you said he's gonna give me earlier?
- 48:43Can I can I make good on that? Like no, it's just like,
- 48:45all right, well, I guess that's not happening. Let me go
- 48:47take this broke asteroid like I didn't. I okay, because he saw that
- 48:57broke asteroid in the first season or a second whenever, now we gotta.
- 49:02I still don't understand the decision to blow up his ship and give him this
- 49:06other ship. I forgot why he blow up his ship? No, they
- 49:09got blown up. I got blown But man, I'm talking about the writer.
- 49:14It's like, why did they ship to give him this one? Like?
- 49:16I get it, because this is once again you get another call back
- 49:20to the you know, the prequels. This is a Prequels era ship.
- 49:22So it's like, remember me, do you like it is? Do you
- 49:25like his new old chip? Yes? Fire, Yeah, it's just fire
- 49:30to fight. Ship moves real good too. Yeah yeah and yeah, well
- 49:37no, this old ship was pretty fire. So the Razor Crest was fine.
- 49:38Well it was fired, but I mean just in terms of the maneuverability
- 49:42and the things that ship can do. Like, but niggas a bounty hunter.
- 49:45This niggas needs space for his bounty. Like he got the one man
- 49:49ship. Now he's moving like a floor. Come on, man, youth,
- 49:55nothing, he's fucking flying. Inefficiency, Bro, you had a pet
- 50:01house and you are now in an efficiency. Ain't no way, fam The
- 50:09oven is in the bathroom, like, there's no fucking way. Not the
- 50:14efficiency that brings me back to the towers. Don't say that's howard, that's
- 50:20rescue. I've never heard that word until I got the Howard me neither thought.
- 50:25I was like, what what's an efficiency? What it's efficient? I
- 50:31guess, yeah, I guess that's what they mean. That's all this Nando's
- 50:38journey to bathe and the waters late, oh my god, and all the
- 50:43dumb shit he doesn't prepare himself to get there is one of the things I
- 50:45did not like. And as I mentioned, the series is just starting to
- 50:49feel like it's just there complicate people who want more grogu. It's actually telling
- 50:52a new story, and it's like, all right, Like I said,
- 50:55I have not talked about and Or much during this review, and we did
- 51:00do. I mean, yeah, but I rememberally brought up like the fact
- 51:05how good that show is. And so while Mandalorian is a completely different type
- 51:12of show. Mandalorian is a spaghetti western inspired by Lone Wolf and Cub But
- 51:16Lone Wolf and cub To manga is a very long running manga that is,
- 51:21you know, pretty dope and it's not some simple shit, even the movies
- 51:25that come out of it, the assassins um I can't remember the one day
- 51:30Jesus, I cannot believe I came for the name of this ship right now,
- 51:34but they directly referenced it with loud Starwalker with the ball and the sword,
- 51:38like that was you know, the that's direct reference to this film.
- 51:42And these are a series of film and even though they're March Charge movies,
- 51:45they're pretty dope and pretty deep. So this is like and Or being this
- 51:52incredible take on this on Star Wars where it's really making a really adult take
- 51:59on Star Wars. It's really showing you that there is no black and white,
- 52:01that the Rebellion and the Empire both have shades of grades and they both
- 52:07Yeah, in some ways it's so ill and like, while I'm not expecting
- 52:10that from Mandalorian even as a spaghetti western, when you have things like Unforgiven,
- 52:15Clint Eastwood's brilliant movie, which really deconstructs spaghetti westerns after he started,
- 52:22you know, so many of them throughout his career, when you've had movies
- 52:25like that, when you've had movies like The the The Coward, the Assassination
- 52:30of the Boy the Coward just I can't remember the law name of that movie.
- 52:36But when you've had all these three fifteens to Humor, Like there's all
- 52:38these different films three ten like where it's like you could do more with what
- 52:45Mando is doing that we've seen and not only that we've seen it. Yeah,
- 52:50and then when we've seen really doing so much more. But like you
- 52:55said, it feels like the natural conclusion of this series him handing off the
- 53:00child. But I get it because people are learning, oh, well,
- 53:05what happens to grog after that he died. Okay, then what happens to
- 53:07Grogu? Not not all this or maybe they go on, you know,
- 53:14evenly they come back together, not like they're just back together. And he's
- 53:16like the Grogu meant your girl that we have yet to see the show Soca.
- 53:22Yeah, why we're not going through that, the Soca like we could
- 53:30if you wanted to recon recont like, I just I just I just I
- 53:37just I think you're right. Then this was the quantum Mania so far.
- 53:40So far, We're just two episodes it so far. Cautiously saying this because
- 53:45it could be it could turn into the most fire shitever and we'll be back.
- 53:49You're eating our words in a couple. Yeah, absolutely, and and
- 53:52I'm prepared for that. But the momcared, Yeah, scaring me, wrapped
- 53:59us up, wrap it up. He was left, Um, what are
- 54:07you looking forward to? What are you looking forward to? Um? And
- 54:21there it is like, I that's that's all I got. That's all I
- 54:24got. Um, I'm done. I'm looking forward to a plot for real.
- 54:31I'm looking forward to this man not being a complete idiot. Like I
- 54:35said, there are things about the second episode I do not want to foil.
- 54:37But oh my god, it is like Jesus Christ, like, why
- 54:43are we supposed to believe that this dude is someone we should be following?
- 54:46This man, it's more so it's this the same nigga il season one and
- 54:54two. Or you turn into a pure idiot and it's like everyone one is
- 55:00telling you you're an idiot, and instead of me like, hey, you're
- 55:01right, maybe I should learn something. No, I'm a double down on
- 55:05my idiot. So the story could happen. Shout out the pitch meeting,
- 55:14because you know that's you know, why did he do all this stupid stuff?
- 55:16So the story could happen? You know That's all I got. Um,
- 55:20Yeah, I'm looking forward to a plot. I'm looking forward to,
- 55:22you know, some more rogue action. I'm really looking forward to Bokaton's serving
- 55:28Mando and taking that saber back from him. I'm praying that's where this grows.
- 55:34Please don't let this fool carry the saber around for too much longer.
- 55:37Man, that shit is too dope to be in the hands of this clown.
- 55:39I just no shot. There's there's there's infinite. As I said when
- 55:46I first when I finished watching Rogue one a few years back. There is
- 55:52infinite ways these stories can now go. Please stop retreading, stop it.
- 56:00I want this to stop. I want y'all to do some new shit.
- 56:05You can do fucking anything. And and with that, I'm going to say,
- 56:10I mean, you know you should watch Rebels, you should watch Clone
- 56:13Wars, but tie Down you've got to watch and Door you've got got to
- 56:16watch, and I've got to watch it to watch And because of this,
- 56:22I'm going to force it to make sure it gets done or started halfway this
- 56:28weekend, because there's there's there ain't no way, bro. No, you
- 56:30got to watch it. And for everyone out there who hasn't seen Andor,
- 56:34please watch it because it is nowhere near the hit that Mandalorian is, and
- 56:38it's already guaranteed a second and only season, so they're not to worry about
- 56:44being canceled or anything. But I just think it is so phenomenal. And
- 56:47if you're watching Mandalorian, you should be watching the Andor. And if you
- 56:52have time, you should all should go back and check Tolone Wars and Rebels
- 56:55because when they are on fire, they are some of the best star wars
- 57:00ever done. And if you love Bokatan, she shines like That's why I
- 57:04fell in love with her was throughout those series, Like and just the whole
- 57:07history of Mandalori and the Mandalorians is so explored so well and told so well.
- 57:14You get to see Mandalorian all this glory before all this happens. You
- 57:17get to see all these different sides to them, the Pacifist side to them,
- 57:22which you know seems unlikely seeing this, and then the death Watch,
- 57:25which we've seen. You know that's part of what Mando is from, is
- 57:30the Watch. And so you see all these different sides. You just see
- 57:34all like you said, infinite ways to tell a story in Star Wars has
- 57:38been done in Rebels, in Clone Wars. So I have hope for this
- 57:43because I trust and Dave Feloni. You know, my man has never really
- 57:46steered me wrong over a whole season of any show. I just it's just
- 57:52scared shit, Like this scares me because it's like what if he came up
- 57:54to us and which is like, so what did you guys thinking? I'm
- 57:57like that was something. Yeah, but I've be honest, you know,
- 58:00I could be honest with you, no, I know, but like,
- 58:01how do you be Also, I'm not gonna say that's for trash because it
- 58:06wasn't. It's just like, no, I was like, what was your
- 58:08point? Yeah, the first two episodes and then and he would probably explain
- 58:14it in a way where I think it's like, well, we haven't been
- 58:16on the air for a while, so we need to catch people up who
- 58:19haven't seen it or who one episode I get it, but maybe they felt
- 58:22like you need a little bit more. And then also the second episode is
- 58:25starting to get into what is the plot? Like, I feel like I
- 58:29feel like his ignorance and stupidity in the second episode especially is joining the comeback
- 58:34and be a major part of the plot for the season. If it's not,
- 58:37this is the sixty fifth time you call him idiots. Man, my
- 58:39man made so many the second episode, it's like like he'd be dead,
- 58:44like we said, it'd be a different show right now. But like I
- 58:46said, if that is addressed through the rest of the season, this should
- 58:50be a really brilliant season. If it's not addressed, wow, yeah,
- 58:53yeah, all right, I'm I'm done. I'm Done'll tell the people what
