THE MANDALORIAN FINALE BREAKDOWN S3 - WHAT NOW...

We end the episode with Din kicking his feet up at his new cabin, and Grogu lifting a frog with the force, like he did when training with Luke Skywalker.
Ok, look, this episode felt more like a they lived happily ever after than a major cliff hanger or a larger threat entering to galaxy. I would have liked if Thrawn’s fleet showed up to kill Gideon perhaps, or show up outside Mandalore. I think they’re keeping Thrawn for the Ahsoka show, as we don’t know where he is at this point. This season of the mandlalorian had no direction like the first 2 seasons. It focused a lot on Bo Katan, which I liked, but I feel like we didn’t get as much Mando as we thought we would, like previous seasons. I hope the next season will return us to Mando and Grogu going on adventures with hopefully a much bigger threat like Thrawn or someone else, Snoke perhaps.
I’m still processing the season, but overall, it just wasn’t nearly as good as the others. Pacing was wild, some episodes moved super fast, while others dragged on, while some just wasted important episode time, like the lizzo episode.
I think the destruction of the dark saber could set this up for Grogu to make his own, considering they save the crystal. Maybe we could learn how they made the dark saber.
Grogu definitely connected with the Mythosaur, I think this is foreshadowing for him to ride the beast and lead Mandalore in the future. Maybe decades from now.
I don't know where Din and Grogu go from here...it kind of seems like they're back to season 1 with his Bouny Hunter days, which were the best parts of the series. Maybe we could have some interesting adventures into the depths of the Galaxy, discovering more force sensitives, bounty hunters or night sisters with magic. Maybe Snoke? Thrawn?

What did you honestly think about this finale and the Mandalorian Season 3 as a whole? What would you have done if you were writing this season? The ending just feels like a conclusion, which is nice for the characters, but comparing this to season 2's finale, not nearly as exciting, and that goes for the entire season. What are your thoughts? Thank you for joining the watch parties and for hanging out with me and the community for the last 8 weeks. I had a blast!

I cried when Skinny Pete told Bo Katan “Yo, this is the way and shit.” before sacrificing himself. Another great scene was when he showed the mandalorians the underground gardens and said “This is church yo.” But by far the best scene was when Gus said “Last chance to look at me Grogu.” before getting engulfed by the flames, truly one of the moments in Star Wars.

[@ricofed439]

@@eugeniawong249 Well a ship is probably faster and the pilot/passengers are protected inside. With the jetpack Axe is much lighter and was able to overcome the planet’s escape velocity, plus it’s much less weight than a ship so less propulsion force is needed. The cruiser looked to be in low orbit so he didn’t have to leave the planet completely which also helped. What’s a bit unrealistic is I’m not sure if his body should be able to withstand all that, he’s not got an Iron Man suit but still got Beskar armor.

@@tonydoinstuff Sure, some people find it fun to be overly critical. I think fear is a _somewhat_ valid excuse for what happened there. I don't know if it's enough, though. What about Grogu messing with stormtroopers when kept alone with them (and Moff Gideon?) in that cell near the end of season two? Keep in mind, this is _two years ago_ and before he received any training from Luke Skywalker. Apart from that point of comparison, what about the fear he must've felt as the explosion was about to consume him along with Din and Bo-Katan?

SR 71 flew close to 80k ft btw. Convert that to miles, about 7 and a half miles. The raptor thing definitely could've flown the youngling farther away than 7 or 8 miles. Say flying horizontally takes less fuel... but still, the raptors could fly hundreds of miles away theoretically. It's a whole freaking planet we are talking about. Nothing unreasonable here.

@@adamH.1 There is a lot of strangeness surrounding the whole thing like, how did Gideon know they were force sensitive if they were still in their tubes?

I do think during the time Grogu was prisoner on Gideon's ship more blood was extracted. On a side note, I am hearing some theories about Grogu's blood being used to help clone Palpatine. I doubt that. Palpatine would have probably saved some of his own blood for this purpose (he knew he was getting old and the dark side was making him look a little rough--at some point he would need a new body).

I know what you mean about leaving well enough alone. This whole entire week I was worried about either Din or Bo-Katan getting killed off. This ending was a very happy one, and I appreciate that. The only thing it was missing was Bo and Din sharing final words. The last thing Bo says to Din was the whole, "Go save your kid" line after she smashed into Gideon. After that it was mostly eye contact or general statements. (Basically no words directly to Din) I agree with your review of the season, there was many times I was sad by how short the episodes were, and on top of that they did waste a lot of time with seemingly meaningless side quests. Lizzo... I don't mind side quests but the reason these were bad imo was the short run times. It was like we didn't have much time to enjoy The Mandalorian and instead of getting answers to our questions, we'd have to watch Lizzo play croquette or something. All of that being said, I literally enjoyed every minute of seeing Din and Bo Katan on screen together. I'm not a shipper but the chemistry between the two was undeniable. (The only downside is the age difference. Din was a kid during the Clone Wars and Bo-Katan was already kicking ass. IDGAF tho, Bo-Katan is an honorable and beautiful woman.)

As Theory mentioned, even with the Force, his clones wouldn't have been that powerful without the proper training and experience. Moreover, my very first thought was that they wouldn't obey him, and would likely kill him and then possibly kill one another. All of this just adds to Gideon's misguided view of the Force and of himself, likely believing himself to be greater than he is, and capable of doing things that he can't do.
