oh, this traveling across the galaxy back and forth like it's a run to the corner store is getting out of hand.

Yeah, that was another thing that put me off The Last Jedi btw - we're already engaged in a highly kinetic scenario (chasing the Raddus / bombarding Navaro) - and in the middle of both, there's some multi-part side quest to run and get help - just really odd pacing...
 
That’s likely what the “Ahsoka” show is gonna be, which somewhat tempers my excitement for the bigger “Heir to the Empire Redux” story we seem to be headed toward.
 
I mean, Filoni was actually IN this week's episode, so I think that's a positive for "Full-Filoni", for which YMMV.

As for myself, it's pretty cool to see the characters I enjoy from the animated media, come over to live-action.
 
Man I hate to say it, cos I always had no time for these salty types that moan about what's intrinsically 'kids stuff' but ******* hell....this season is like watching a collection of shonky cutscenes from a video game.

Or more realistically like they've had some absolutely killer concept art done for some great set pieces and just tried to string it all together with some absolutely furniture chewing dialogue and loads of fan service easter eggs for the youtubers to point out...looks like they fired the script editor after the first five minutes too.

I absolutely ADORED season 1, was all in for Season 2 even tho it went where I hoped it wouldn't and dragged in the legacy characters...but I think this season has lost the vibe totally...the big selling point for me of Mando was that he was a small part of a gigantic universe but now it's just slipping back into these huge epic ideas with galactic wide famous heroes and huge historical cultural events of legendary proportion.

Don't get me wrong...I'm not declaring "Star Wars is dead to me now" like the salty ones. I'm gonna wait to see what's coming for the rest of the season and then probably go watch the first season again and consider myself incredibly lucky with that :D

No chance imo, I think this episode heavily set up more pirate shenanigans for next episode. I was quite surprised we didn’t see Hondo at the end, but that’s still my guess on who Vane left to after abandoning the seaweed salad king. That also my guess on who was hired to extract Gideon, since Captain Teva wants to make such a connection as imperial remnant being connected to pirates.

The beskar aspect I’d suspect is either planted by Gideon to frame Mandalorians which doesn’t make sense since they are responsible for his arrest, or left by the pirates, who I would imagine have an affinity to Beskar being more of rare treasure seekers, though leaving it behind doesn’t seem very pirate like so I’m leaning more towards Gideon planting it.

In the ahsoka episode of S2, didn't the place she was staking out, that had imperial ties, had someone guarding it with a Beskar staff who wasn't a mandalorian? Been a couple years....but i don't think Beskar is a mandalorian exclusive..

Exactly, the whole first season had a story arc about Imps having confiscated beskar.

You're both right about it not being exclusive, especially after the rise of the Empire, but I'm wondering if it couldn't be some Mandalorian faction that was loyal to Gar Saxon.

He was Maul's commander when he ruled Mandalore, then was named Governor of the planet under the Imperial rule. His reign was ended when Bo got the Darksaber, then she was overthrown by Gideon. Plenty of reasons to think those two entities could have common ground.

Am I the only one who felt some sexual tension there in the cave...

Also loved when Bo came out and Vizla turned to Mando like "...you seein this s**t?"

With the Armorer and Bo? I thought when she said to take your helmet off she was hitting on her. I guess I've seen too many recreational films... :lol:

I definitely think there's something odd with telling Bo to take her helmet off because they've been ramming their ideology into everyone's heads for multiple seasons.

I also thought it odd that the pilots were in a bar with their life support gear attached. It's entirely possible they could be alert pilots who are hanging out, but I would assume they wouldn't be allowed in a bar if that was the case. I could totally see Disney saying "Well X-Wing pilots look like that so they have to have all the gear on."

I almost forgot, my nephew is guessing the Beskar in the shuttle is from Dark Troopers. The new canon version apparently has Beskar armor instead of Phrik like the Dark Forces version.

I'm confused.
In the previous seasons the population of Navarro seemed like it was a couple hundred people.
This season has showed in a couple of years Navarro has grown quite a bit. By looking at the city shots I would guess over a thousand people.

After the Corsair attacks and everyone flees and groups up outside of town, I'm guessing there is 75-100 people. Did the pirates kill THAT many people when attacking the city?
 
Favreau: Dave, you know that I’m part of the MCU, right?

Filoni: You have mentioned once or, 3487 times.

Favreau: You know how all of the movies we‘re intertwined into one big story and they all came together for the Big Boss fight?

Filoni: (Can’t speak because he’s just so dang excite)

Favreau: You thinking what I’m thinking?

Filoni: We’re going to have to wear Depends in the writers room!

Favreau: Let’s get going…

There were several hundred more survivors. They were just stuck in the bathroom, making emergency poo poo’s after the first attack wave hit.

I was wondering the same thing. Almost like they blew the budget on CGI that week and didn't have enough left for an accurate number of extras for all the townfolk.
