Acgott Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Fun episode, but was a poor finale for a poor season. Everything was very straight forward, no surprises. The Armorer wasn’t some secret villain. Bo didn’t ride the mythosaur. No Thrawn. There wasn’t any real excitement. Very disappointed. Bringing back Grogu was a mistake. Din didn’t really do much.

Grogu is a really uninteresting character. He's cute, but he's just there in the background half the time. There was nothing amazing or spectacular about this season. I love Giancarlo Esposito but he's got nothing to work with with his character. Gideon is so uninspiring as a villain. So many things in this episode had me scratching my head too.

Hard to make a character interesting when they can’t talk. Grogu’s journey is what makes him intriguing and we saw one scene of his past and he didnt grow at all in the present.

They just couldn't pull it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Feels like the entire season was just to get Mandalorians back on Mandalore. Other than that, not much is different than where the season began. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was given back to Maul later on. If we follow the Palpatine ladder, Luke Skywalker is its current owner as of the Mandalorian show. It’s just a myth for the residents of mandalore. I havent read the rest of this thread as im only on episode 3 but doesnt the dark saber technically belong to Ahsoka? She defeated Maul on Mandalore but maybe that was after Palps? I dont really remember. Maybe it doesnt belong to her because Maul didnt use the Dark Saber during the fight? I dont remember the time line well enough to remember.

adamq Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I loved every minute of the finale. Felt like the 3rd act of a big SW movie. Taking out the clones was a boss move, and Gideon's reaction was great Season 4, Mando and Grogu bounty huntin' adventures.. Can't wait!

Think the movie will be the end of Mando’s story and this time period. And then we’ll see a jump for Grogu and Mandalore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 (edited) So they spent like 2 full episodes on Coruscant just for that entire story line to go literally nowhere and not even get 1 second of screen time in the finale....????? That's my biggest gripe about this entire season. They could've not shown that entire arc and nothing would've been lost in this season. Oh well, I was happy with the finale overall. The Mandalorians are back on Mandalore and rebuilding - Din and Grogu can rest and now we have the foundation for Ahsoka with Thrawn and the Rebels characters having been teased in this season.

Even just teasing Thrawn in that meeting Gideon had with the other Imperials, something as simple as him coming in last second and approving Gideon's plan, would have been a much better tease other than saying "Oh, word is Thrawn is back, been like 10 years, but here he is."

Putting a face to the name would have been great. Not everyone watches the animated stuff, myself included. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with Thrawn and the Rebels characters they briefly mentioned/showed, you can say "oh they're just prepping that for Ahsoka", but not really with the whole Coruscant folks. Those people had nothing to do with any part of the story in here or Ashoka, so I'm just THOROUGHLY confused why they even bothered with those episodes.
