The Book of Boba Fett Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger REACTION!!

full watch-a-long REACTION: bit.ly/32Ttw57

[@vegasus4503]

Please don't keep talking about what happens in the new trilogy. Favreau and Filoni could make the new trilogy not canon, let's keep watching it further and see where Luke's academy is heading. I know many people who doesn't want the new trilogy not being canon. Who knows the show might not even advance that far ahead to what happens with the new trilogy. We could also see Luke's potential love interest with Mara Jade if Filoni and Favreau decides to include her in future shows. Remember Filoni included Grand Admiral Thrawn as Canon, he originated from books written by Timothy Zahn.

only way I can think Grogu got out of the temple alive is he hid from troops and Vader and was found by Yoda and Kenobi when they returned into the temple.

Even if Grogu chooses to stay with Luke, he is making so much progress and he's doing it sooo fast that I doubt he would have to remain at Luke's academy for 20 years. Grogu, as Luke pointed out, is basically remembering stuff he already knew

@@wldcrd26 Cad Bane is a cartoon character. They have now moved on to this “plane of reality”. Thrawn? It used to be a legend. It was a mistake not to make part 7 with him. Now? It was transferred to the current canon (Mandalorian-Ahsoka scene). There is nothing to prevent them from rewriting the later part that many hate. If they want. Let's look at the changes. Star Wars 7. :Wonder woman Rey, Mind tricks without training. Now: What does Luke say (Mandalorian S02 last episode)? Without training, talent is worth nothing. The series hits the sequels hard.

After watching the episode this morning, I was definitely worried Nikki might die from cuteness overload.

[@QuayNemSorr]

My mind blew up every 5 minutes of this episode. It just wouldn't let go. And Luke was perfectly made. The quality was insane

[@LordSplittawig]

Given the relativity involved in Grogu's age, he could actually spend his time with Din, until Din dies, then return to Jedi training, because he would still be a "youngling". Just saying. Din's what, in his 30's or 40's? That means that he only has, at most, a few decades before he dies. A few decades for Grogu is like a few years for humans.

[@joshuayepez3635]

I'd say 10 years for humans is about 1 for Grogu. When we are introduced to him, they said he's 50, but he seems to be about 5. That would have made Yoda between 80 and 90 when he passed, which seems about right, in my opinion.

[@tallerwarrior1256]

Yeah I’d say Din has half a century left in him, if he doesn’t die early of course. That would mean Grogu would be Ten years old. Grogu would be around 80 in the sequel era (in human years that’s eight) so he’s probably a pretty active kid traversing the galaxy doing Mandalorian stuff.

[@dawnkladerman598]

Din is approx 40. I said the same thing on another channel.... He can spend his dayz with Din and still have time to refresh his skills. The skills are there...just suppressed by his trauma

[@LordSplittawig]

@@dawnkladerman598 "The skills are there... just suppressed by his trauma." Story of my life...

[@LordSplittawig]

@@joshuayepez3635 yeah, I figured around the same. If Grogu's species could live to around 900-1000 years, and humans to around 90-100, it would be somewhere around a 10:1 ratio.

[@NialasDubh]

I feel stupid that it never occurred to me until that ending that little Grogu will live far, FAR beyond the deaths of Din, Boba, Luke, Asoka, everyone. Suddenly their lives, their relationships with Grogu, seem so very brief. They need to hurry!

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Yeah. Yoda was 900 I believe when he passed so Grogu has many, many lifetimes to live.

[@popcorn_bunny]

When I saw Grogu, Luke, and R2 I told my friend, "They might as well show Ahsoka." And then they did. After that Cad Bane showed up lol. I was speechless after this episode.

[@RJALEXANDER777]

For me it was Can Bane strolling into town like Lee Van Cleef. I mean, it's amazing to see main characters we've known for decades, and even a fan favourite like Ashoka on screen together. But seeing someone more obscure like Cad in live action was a genuine shock.

It was cute to have Luke tell Grogu about Yoda. Since it's been confirmed by the later scene that Grogu was a Youngling in the Jedi Temple just before the Purge, the chances that he doesn't already know Yoda are slim and none and slim is far in the rear.

[@AaronStarkLinux]

Cad Bane was the dopest moment ever. I didn't expect that. I like this character a lot.

[@lordmorklen5166]

Luke: "Do you wanna remember?" Grogu: "Bro you look a lot like the fool that merc'd my buddies!"

[@matthewscott3689]

Grogu is definitely going to choose the Mandolorian. It gives Luke an excuse to go back to Tattoonine to deliver Grogu. Grogu would rather be with his friend/dad than be a Jedi. He’s already been semi trained anyways. Luke said it himself, he’s remembering more than actually receiving training. Plus, a lifetime for the Mandolorian is only a few years for Grogu, so might as well spend that time with Mando and figure out the whole Jedi thing as you go. It also leaves it open an arc for Mando to take Grogu to Mandolore, and also the potential that Grogu will inherit the Dark Saber from Mando eventually.

[@madelinegarber7860]

Well… maybe he’ll reforge the dark saber down the line.

[@Absher_501st]

Grogu is definitely going to choose Mando. They wouldn’t have kept a spot for him in the new ship.

[@jmhaces]

I loved the episode but I honestly had to laugh at the ridiculous choice Luke gives Grogu at the end because he was almost like, "Yeah, you can only choose Mando's sick-ass beskar chain mail OR my old master's awesome lightsaber. You can't have both because to be a Jedi is to forego ALL attachments to the people you love and if you don't choose the lightsaber I'm kicking you out of my school. Welp, I'll gonna go hang out with my sister and my bro-in-law and tell them all about how we just spent some time with my dad's old Padawan/BFF. You can let me know which one you'd prefer to have when I get back. No pressure, though!" I honestly hope he's just being a troll like Yoda was to him when they first met and he's trying to check how Grogu really feels about becoming a Jedi at this point, and he's gonna let him keep both regardless of what he chooses.

[@rominamartinez5544]

My thoughs exactly. I really hope that Luke is being a little shit trolling Grogu to judge his reaction instead of making him do something like that when he's constantly attached to people and situations.

[@PrinceJediMaster]

I believe Luke to be 100% serious. And I am ok with that.

Cad freaking Bane wow he looks so awesome in live action, of course Corey Burton brings the character to life with his iconic voice but honestly the physical actor (who I assume is most likely a stunt double) was surprisingly very accurate and faithful to how he was animated in both Clone Wars and Bad Batch, the actor both had to wear a bunch of layered clothing AND extensive prosthetics but was able to bring across just how ruthless and imposing Bane can be, the combination of that with Burton’s voice fully brings Cad to life and imo it worked practically perfectly

I’m logging my prediction for the finale: Grogu chose the lightsaber. But during his training he has a vision that Mando is going to die. Same as Luke went through in ESB. Luke will take him to save Mando. Grogu will get shot but they’ll reveal he has the beskar on like Frodo. Luke let him have both.

[@castortroy22]

The choose option is a test for grogu, Luke left before his training was complete to go help his friends. I think Grogu will go back to the Mandalorian, then go back into training since he lives so long. Grogu is what made Mandalorian they can’t have it without him IMO.

[@Billyregin]

I think he has to pick the mandalorian armor, because in The Last Jedi Luke said that Ben Solo was his first student, so if now Grogu becomes his first student it'll break some continuity. And yeah, it might be a small detail but Dave Filoni is too meticulous with continuity in Star Wars to miss something like that.

WoW! Just WoW! Congrats for the much deserved recognition by Ms Howard, she has fast become one of my top ten Directors. I'd love for her to direct and appear in an episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds being a family member was on TOS besides the Willow series and of course films

This is what SW is supposed to be ! This episode feels 100% like a true SW thing !! Loved your reaction on this one !

I like how everybody is surprised by this choice that Luke is presenting him as if it's something new this is something that the Jedi have been doing for centuries

Been looking forward to this and you didnt disappoint , amazing how animals can sense emotions and will react to comfort . I am from the camp that Grogu picks the chain mail or the show is over , Mando didnt coverup the astromech port with a clear dome to let the sunshine in . Grogu will be sitting there at some point wearing the vest . If Tarre Vizsla can be both so can Grogu . Or i could be completely wrong , although i dont think i am , and that is what makes this show or shows so exciting

Grogu riding Luke " Like a Bantha". Also eating all the frogs from so many worlds. The lowest desert frogs to the most sentient got Grogu all Hoppy.

[@halamander1112]

Can't believe Luke is making Grogu choose between Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang.

[@samreyes8913]

If this ends up going like Cobra Kai, Grogu might end up finding a way to balance both.

Having seen the episode already, I HAD to watch your reactions, especially Nikki! So glad you guys are finding success in what you're doing. :)

Just wanted to say I'm not surprised you got highlighted by Bryce Dallas Howard. You guys are the perfect mix of nerdyness, casual fan, family and excitement without getting TOO nerdy and niche... I think you are the reactor couple most audiences that are not super young can best identify with. You have passionate and emotional reactions without over the top overacting stuff, Nikki brings in the casual enjoyment and Steven the more hardcore fan without being a walking encyclopedia, you bring the parent vibes into it... if I were to recommend a reaction channel to any general audience member... you guys would be it.

Ahsoka knowing both of Luke's parents really made it really hit when she says "Friend of the family"

Cad's duel with Boba was in a non published scene that was supposed to be in either season 7 or 8 of Clone Wars. In the Duel Boba kills Cad (it looked like) and Cad gave him the dent in his helmet. But of course never completed and not Canon

[@TheManOnTheStreetOMG]

I just realised how awesome it is to see Ahsoka and R2 together after all this time..
