The Mandalorian 3x6 Reaction: Guns for Hire

[@christomlinson3074]

I find it interesting that everyone is writing off this episode, but Din and Bo now have official relations with a planet that uses domed cities that are similar to what was on Mandalor. I can easily see this as laying the groundwork for the eventual rebuilding of their planet.

[@cassieo]

The Ugnauhts are going to help with IG-11, too.

[@niehoe3048]

Yeah it's like a lot of people are ignoring this. They're saying everything but the end was filler, which is just completely false

[@shandorunia]

@@niehoe3048 hard to know if it is false until the season ends. I think it will be interesting to see where it goes over the final two episodes.. I have spoken ;-)

[@ErynRenee]

Thanks for saying it! I'm so tired of the complaints. For the first two seasons, people whined about not having enough exploration of Mandalorians, now that we are meeting and exploring Mandalorians and their factions, people are whining about not enough Din or Grogu. I'm sorry, they said this season would be about uniting the Mandalorians and reclaiming Mandalore... didn't they? Din NEVER WANTED THE DARKSABER...he isn't power hungry. BO SAW THE MYTHOSAUR FOR A REASON...and Bo earned respect from the CotW through those "filler" episodes. Geez. Can't make anyone happy, I guess.

[@katers256]

Exactly, thank you!

[@TheSirUno]

+1 This. 👆🏼

[@kptmaci4979]

I love Grogu and Mando, but honestly - we already got enough and they still have the same relationship. Now we are finally focusing on Mandalorians as a whole story of the title culture. Its finally what I wanted from the start for it to be - exploring titular mandalorian and his 'tribe'. Series 3 ending with their mission of retaking the home planet and uniting the clans couldnt be more fitting for a show with such title! Also SPOILER FOR EP 7 --- ... ---> empire general fascinated with Mandalorian culture and making his own imperial-mandalorian squad to fight them? P-E-R-F-E-C-T! I would also be fine with them making time jump during next season. Perhaps if they retake Mandalore, Grogu could grow up there a bit to the next level of speech at least? Take his relationship with his 'father' master to next level. We know he wont grow up much, as he is from the species that ages super slow, but we could take it at least this far with him as a youngling.

[@pyrofan80]

Jack Black and Lizzo actually looked perfectly normal for the surroundings of this episode. Christopher Lloyd killing it in his monologue

[@Tommy57G]

I agree. My gut check for 'Does this feel like Star Wars?' with all these series is: Would this thing (character/ship/planet) fit in an episode of The Clone Wars series? Personally I can see 100% of Plazier 15 coming right out of that setting. For me, it worked.

[@adriangaliver]

Count Dooku was a visionary! Imagine being a loyal separatist for 30 years at least. I was glad to see those battle droids and prequels-era references.

[@ericlopez5218]

Im gonna give the rest of the season a chance but tbh to say say that Lizzo and Jack Black felt "normal" to me indicates a lack of imagination. I don't have a problem with either of them IRL but to me it broke immersion to have them in this. They could've easily brought in some unknowns wearing the exact same costumes and reading exact same lines and it would've worked better imo

[@yannym4605]

@@ericlopez5218 The Star Wars Universe has no limits in the types of people and cultures it can possess. Just look at Earth with 8 billion people, and now imagine a galaxy with 500 trillion people. It would wholly unrealistic if there weren’t people like Jack Black, and Lizzo in that universe.

[@SwitchBladeEVO]

I love that you guys always seem to have the most fun with these cooky episodes that flesh out the world. Almost everyone else I've watched has complained about this episode vehemently. I'm in the same boat that I just wanna experience as much of this world as possible. Why wouldn't there be a post-Imperial Wall-E world that is totally utopian with a Separatist sympathizer. There's all kinds of crazy shit still going on in the universe at large. This is also huge development for Bo and Din. They have so much respect for one another now and Bo can finally bring everyone together. I expect 7 and 8 to be big potentially crossover episodes. This season has been so incredible. Have loved every second of it.

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

This is my favorite episode yet! I love cameos like this and I actually like stuff being more "goofy" than overly serious like Andor was. It keeps my attention way more personally.

[@keithredacted8154]

I love cozy episodes like these. Do you know any other reactors who reacted to this episode like them?

[@SwitchBladeEVO]

@@keithredacted8154 I thought Preview'd had pretty similar reactions. They had a good time with this episode as well. I watch like 10 different channels, but I always watch Preview'd first, then Heroes Reforged if I can help it, then Reel Rejects and whoever else after that. The Rejects were a lot more critical of this episode in the grand scheme of things, but Jay and Adam over at Preview'd always have a good time with this cameo stuff and the more fun exploring the universe at large bits. :)

[@SwitchBladeEVO]

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 I can do either/or, but like, Star Wars has always been campy and over the top. It's why I loved Book of Boba Fett so much. It told, imo, a good and fresh story about a beloved character, expanded the current universe a bit more, and didn't take itself too seriously. Danny Trejo training a Rancor for Boba Fett to ride wasn't on my bingo card, but I fuckin' loved it. 😂 I think episode 5 is still my favorite so far this season because seeing Din, Paz, and Bo all on the same page made me really emotional for some reason, like Din has finally earned the respect of his Covert.

[@grayclaw1391]

If Din just had said "This is the Way" after her gave Bo back the Dark Saber would have given me more goosebumps along with the music would have been so cool!!!

[@passionsquietrage]

I feel like I'm the only one who got "I, Robot" vibes from this episode. The droid bar tender not saying, " We don't serve your kind here" was a missed opportunity though. And the music during the fight between Bo and Ax Wolves (badass name number two this season, the other being Ragnar Vizla) is sick.

[@CaptainJ62]

“Hey, nice to meet you, I’m Steve.” “A pleasure to meet you as well, I’m AX.” “Like the weapon?” “Like the weapon.”

[@W0NK042]

They made it up with "Guess they don't get many of our kind in here".

[@hugomendoza5665]

Well they referenced it by having Din's line about how they don't get our kind here. I also think it would've been out of character for the bartender to have said that because it's fairly antagonistic, but the droids are really subservient and gentle and would probably not say something like that.

[@coldchillin8382]

@@hugomendoza5665 exactly. It wouldn’t have fit the situation nor the characterization they were going for.

[@katiebentley5921]

Ditto to pretty much everyone else. Love your takes on the validity of this episode. A couple favorite things for me were: 1. The call back to the Ugnaughts. That was so awesome. I loved that they tied that back in. 2. The droid perspective. Before this episode, I hadn’t considered that the imperial tech they were decommissioning included droids, because they’re so much more than just tech / machinery. It’s another way the New Republic is misstepping.

[@catherinesanchez1185]

People have no patience these days. When I was a little kid , I watched 22 episode tv shows and if there was a cliffhanger, god forbid...I had to wait ALL SUMMER to find out what happened in the Fall premiere. I for one, LOVE the environments, character builds and seeing how all the other people in this galaxy are doing cuz when the hardcore shit eventually comes down and our protagonists have to put the pedal to the metal, we will know what is at stake.

[@susanwitkowski5802]

Adam and Hector...I love Star Wars! I fell in love with it in 1977 at the age of 10. I am so appreciative that we continue having stories told to us to enjoy. As for this season of Mandalorian, I have loved it so far and expect an awesome 2 final episodes. 💕

[@ProfArmitage218]

Some less noticeable guest stars - the alien couple at the start were the actress who played Jefferson's wife Lynn on "Black Lightning" and Tom Holland's brother.

[@charrado]

I left this episode with a warmth and joy that was hard to figure out. It really reminded me of the 80's and 90's Scifi zaniness that made me fall in love with the genre. It sucks that not everyone is enjoying the season but I like how this father and son we grew to love are having such a deep impact on the mandalorians as a whole.

First the Beskar Spear and now the Darksaber; Mando Now Really needs a new weapon. {Here's to hoping when he joined back up with the covert, the Armorer restocked him with new whistling birds}. Or at least a New Melee Weapon along with/besides his Vibro-knife.

[@najtrows]

I feel like many don't really do expectations well. They seem to want to have the show go exactly the way they want and any other way is bad. I just want to enjoy what I get and some things might be more enjoyable but I don't try to have any expectations beforehand at all really. And I feel like often you understand the vision or the space the story or medium overall tries to go for and that makes more things enjoyable in life. I don't have to want to create the same art as others but I can still appreciate their vision and what they ended up with.

Such a joyous episode and such a fun analysis of an episode that has been criminally slammed. How the Cameo players inhabited their characters made me smile. It's been a minute since we've seen the foppish courtier let alone the "Fairy Princess" ie The Duchess rolling by like a 30's swashbuckler movie. Mr. Lloyd as the heavy (he would've gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling Mandos) was a slice of Scooby Doo. The 'Droid bar brought up not only some good philosophical points but the reality that for them, The New Republic Sucks! Seems that Placia 15 is a great place for second chances all around. The Heroes Reforged are correct in thier assessment of letting the story run its course. Such a fun ride in fact and deed!

[@andareon]

I'm happy to watch ANY Star Wars content, like you guys said: seeing new places, species, backgrounds, lore, EVERYTHING in any form, even if the "main quest" takes a bit of time, It's Star Wars, It's supposed to be fun and silly alongside all the darkness. BoBF included, Obi Wan Kenobi too. In TV you can immerse yourself more in the world. More Star Wars will always be entertaining to me, and I feel bad for people that It doesn't satisfy (even if It's their right of course).

[@Chaffee738]

One of the criticisms about The Force Awakens that stuck with me as an enjoyer of media on a spiritual level was "The movie delivered everything we expected, and absolutely nothing we didn't even know we wanted". The review itself is beside the point, my biggest takeaway is the expression "what I didn't even know I wanted": always be open to things that I didn't know I wanted to see. Definitely have expectations, but don't be watching with a judgmental stance about how the media matches with the expectation you had. No matter how good the version of the story in your head was going to be, that's not the only good outcome there could have been, not even necessarily the best. First point, that's going to ruin your own experience. Something goes off track from your expectations and already all you do as you watch is complain and think about what should have been and not looking into where the show actually is going. Which brings to the second point, your judgment is going to be horrible. You stopped paying attention to what's actually happening and why and how, how would you make a proper deep dive and analysis? That's how you end up with ridiculous takes. (Like for example this episode, I've seen comments that Disney is disrespecting Din as evident from the Duchess knighting Grogu after Din did the hard work and, like, are you serious?) It's really great to watch level-headed reactions like yours, enjoying the ride and able to understand and analyze. Forces of positivity are really what all of us could benefit from.

[@Jon_FM]

Part of my take with this episode, which I actually liked better than last week which had to contend with a massively great end of the Bad Batch. Is that Jack Black's character was to show the Amnesty program is not all rotten to the core. That there are good people who want to do right by their new circumstance. He easily could have been the baddie and was meant to question whether he was due to the A on his chest. I think it shows us that not everything about the program is failing just as the New Republic is not working as hoped but not completely a disaster as well. At the end of the day I thought it was a CSI galaxy episode with a critical end. I think head canon is messing everyone up... Grogu must be a Mando-jedi, Din will be the Mand'alor, what if neither of those are correct. What if Grogu just wants to be a good him and his dad just wants that too. Also wanting to skip to the point, to me that ignores the fact that side stories can definitely contribute to amazing stories.

[@Jon_FM]

I also agree that I wont watch everything if it doesn't work to me. I am not a fan of Andor so I have not watched it. I am sure there are ideas that people love about it but for me I am very different in what I want from Star Wars.

Naw I had fun with this episode. I was so stoked when I saw Jack Black and Christopher Lloyd. I didn’t know she was Lizzo until the credits though.

Hector hit the nail on the head. This episode is a fun sidequest in the best way. I didn't play a lot of Mass Effect, but this episode felt like a mission you could play in that game. People can complain all they want about the cameos, but the Star Wars universe is a weird place. Jack Black and Lizzo don't stand out in a universe with Samuel L. Jackson and Harrison Ford. Considering how the next episode went down, people were crapping all over a great episode before another one rolled around. Bryce Dallas Howard did an excellent job with this episode. She definitely should direct a movie soon based on this episode and her previous ones. Edit: I really hope that Heroes Reforged can do those cosplay ideas. That would be awesome.

Grogu: Knight in the New Republic.

I don’t get the dislike for this episode. I enjoyed it very much. I’m currently watching clone wars for the first time and this legit felt like a live action episode of later season clone wars. I can’t wait to see how Plazir and its inhabitants fit in later down the line

Hey it's that guy from New Rockstars

Did you notice the pad with a triangle on Din's right arm that looks kinda the same with the KZbin's award for the 100k followers ?

Great reaction. Even better explanation on how you judge episodes, and the season as a whole (one that I share). For myself, this was a fun excursion, tied in with THREE all-star cameos, giving the feel of a live-action version of Clone Wars. Even with this side adventure, like with other episodes, you never know what might be important down the line...be it for the current season, future seasons, and/or even for another production(s). The episode didn't need to pivot back to the larger story arc. Yet, considering how it was done (and the time factored in), I'm happy with the execution. Now, we have two remaining episodes in a season that gives me a feel that it's building up to something much grander than itself (and emphasized in SWCE 2023).

Jack Black playing Jack Black playing a role that’s basically Jack Black. Love it. Jack Black is like John Wayne or Arnie - Seems they play themselves and people just write to the celebrities caricature….if it works- why change it. Loved seeing Christopher Lloyd as well!

This episode reminds me of the early Marvel and LA Times comics. The ones published between ANH and TESB. The Jaxxon years, if you will. Love it!

I didn't recognize Christopher Lloyd at all until the credits since I haven't seen him in much and he has less hair but the voice seemed familiar.

I said it before when Bo-Katan saved Din and I’ll say it again, ALL HAIL QUEEN BO-KATAN KRYZE!!!! She needed to fall out of favor with her fleet because she needed to go back to her roots on Mandalore as well as spend time with the Children Of The Watch to completely rethink what it means to truly be Mandalorian. The Armorer was very wise when she said that Bo-Katan can walk both worlds, she can TRULY unite her people and finally take back their homeworld. And Lizzo was okay, but freaking JACK BLACK and CHRISTOPHER LLOYD! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯These men were such a massive part of my childhood. Also I’m 100% for droid rights!

This was a fun episode. I thought all of the guest stars did well. I am glad you guys liked it. It has received a bit of hate online, even from Reactors that I usual appreciate. Like others said, what might seem inconsequential now, could end up playing an important role here.
