These reactors are having that Star Wars fandom issue where they want rumors and proposed stories to be true and when they are not they get disappointed. Fans of big enterprises usually set themselves up to be disappointed if they don't get what they have hyped themselves up for. The story telling is ongoing. You don't need all answers right now.

[@aegon1targaryen208]

Youre all just defending shit storytelling

[@Ian-Omega]

No this season has been lacklustre compared to the previous two.

[@thefirstbourne149]

@@FearThanos420. I don’t think Lindo necessarily made the story better. The story does take s as lot of weird detours. As much as I want to say that certain reviewers are bring too harsh and throw it in their face, I think it takes remembering also that Episode 6 is almost like Episode 5 of season 1. Really hokey acting and somewhat boring even for a filler Episode. I like those kinds of episodes in a show like this, but you still have to make it well. It’s not the worst Star Wars thing out there, but fans have been burned bad by something like The Rise of Skywalker and the prequels for having only one particular story planned out, but forgetting to map out the other details.

[@pal54321]

So many reaction videos today HAVE NO IDEA who they are looking at. Definitely a COP OUT. There was so much potential Favreau and co. missed out on, the redemption of JarJar (and not the actor) and some moving scenes with Grougu as he would be shepharded to safety by him. Disappointed.

[@tonyv.945]

Yeah it was awesome!! Loved it. These two KZbinrs are the only reactions I saw that were so negative And they didn't pick up on who the Jedi was either. All opinions are valid cuz there no right or wrong but I couldn't relate to these two n this one....

[@FranciscoHOS]

@@pal54321 I think one of the issues that Grogu brings along with viewers is the expectation that we'll see more content related to the Jedi, and with that brings bigger expectations of seeing more fallout from Order 66 etc. More casual viewers got hooked to the thrill of Jedi being in the Mandalorian, and strayed away from the mystique and culture of the Mandalorians, which is what made this series so popular. Based on reports, it seems like Favreau/Filoni were forced into bringing Grogu back for season 3 by Kathleen Kennedy which they disagreed on. Which is why Filoni and Favreau seem to have more control now, because they didn't want to be forced into that situation again.

[@TA3DArtist]

Let the story happen. I feel like you’re knocking it for not doing what you want it to do instead of trying to see what it is doing. This was a half hour episode, I expect the later half of the season to feature longer episodes as the pay off for the beginning of the season unfolds. Right now we’ve learned a small bit more about Grogu’s escape, we’ve seen Bo Katan gain the respect of the orthodox Mandalorians, we’ve seen her growing a stronger bond with Grogu and begin questioning the things she believed in. That’s actually quite a bit. We’ve also seen Elia complete her mission of disposing of the doctor, we’ve found out Mandalore is inhabitable if not restored, we’ve found out Mythosaurs still exist (in spite of their names) and we learned a large emperial force is after Bo. All that and it’s only episode four. So let the story unfold and maybe knock it a bit less for not being the story you want to tell.

[@fjack7013]

yeah this is deffo the worst reaction i've seen. just 20 minutes of 'this isnt what I want' rather than seeing the bigger picture of the story-building going on. If it was just constant action with Mando and Grogu it would be seriously boring.

[@agentsculder2451]

Amen!

[@ihaveafettfetish9348]

No, they’re right. The Mandalorian peaked at Season 2. Season 3 has felt more like The Book of Boba Fett and Kenobi. The writing and quality have taken a huge dive. Jango, Jaster, and the True Mandalorians would’ve destroyed these cosplaying Mandos in seconds. Most of them don’t even know how to use their gear and are wearing spray painted Boba helmets. C’mon Disney. A 2 year wait for this? HBO quality Andor to this?

[@Chaosm03]

I loved this episode seeing Kelleren have a big moment. It's been a real redemption arc for Ahmed Best. After years of getting sh*t on for Jar Jar, he bounces back with Jedi Temple challenge and now this. And the mission it was fun to see the Mando's work together as a community to do something other than a blunt force mission. I think Casey and Anthony are working themselves up for their own disappointment. To focused on their head canon than what the story actually is.This episode was great we had Grogu taking his first steps to actually being a Mandalorian. Bo's internal struggle and growing closer to the other Mandos. And, once again seeing Kelleren get to be a bad ass. I thought this was a banger.

[@TraXlem]

absolutely agree with your "head canon" analysis this is happening alot with within many many fandoms where fans build up false expectations and when their head canon isnt followed they are disappointed

[@thefreerocketman5777]

Damn right

[@FranciscoHOS]

@@TraXlem I'd say it partly happened with the MCU too. Phase 4 was definitely underwhelming in terms of quality of story telling compared to phases 1-3, but even in the early projects of phase 4 with Wandavision, people were setting such high expectations with what they were hoping to see.

[@TraXlem]

@@FranciscoHOS absolutely agree, I think in case of the MCU their first mistake was calling it phase four, they should have established the fact that it was “the multiverse saga” and then called it phase one, I think phase four was meant to establish something new with loose connectivity and not feel as a continuation of phase 3, which many felt that way.

[@Haunter_Who88]

The actor playing the Jedi was Ahmed Best- best known for playing Jar Jar Binks in the prequels and I believe he had had a minor role for playing a Jedi elsewhere but I just don't know where. honestly while I WAS expecting someone of a bigger name I was happy to see him integrated back into the SWU and actually got the justice he deserves after all he went through with fan toxicity.

He was from a show called Jedi Temple Challenge. It was about training young Jedi. So it actually makes alot of sense.

[@Haunter_Who88]

@@x1928 I can *almost* forgive his lack of knowledge in knowing who Ahmed Best is because if I'm to be honest, if it WASN'T for seeing Ahmed in a horror movie a couple years back and looking him up I'd have NO idea who he was and would maybe have had to have done a Google search as to who he was and WHY him coming back was significantly bigger than having someone say (speculated) Mace Windu or any other member of the council which would have made little to no sense seeing they were all busy and scattered elsewhere.

[@alexanderwiles2003]

the mando's weren't nerfed weve seen them do great fighting the main issue here is other kids have been killed by this thing and that meant they were to worried to use alot of there normal weapons which could cause the beast to harm the child or drop him or could end up hitting him with there weapons also. and you need to remember the creed talks about raising and protecting children as a very important part

[@Kyle-gu3ge]

Exactly. Armorer literally says one of the most honorable parts of the creed is saving and protecting a foundling.

[@Thaedriel]

I really liked the episode, I get that people lose focus when we're off the main story beats, but I appreciate side quests in a series like this. Taming and riding beasts is very mandalorian. These Mando's feel alot like old republic mandalorians, so loving that.

I'm seriously starting to wonder about the object permanence of the people who keep freaking out when Mando isn't onscreen every single second.

[@josceola8979]

I don't understand how so many miss that and just start complaining.

[@Kyle-gu3ge]

I'd like to think the Armorer knows the Mythosaur is there which adds to their beliefs when it comes to the Living Waters. By bathing there as Din did you are basically reestablishing your faith to the creed in the presence of what they almost consider a diety-like being in the Mythosaur. By doing that they earn the right to be Mandalorian again.

[@zeroethics3082]

@@Kyle-gu3ge Yea, for sure! The Armorer is all about Faith, so even if she never saw it herself, she still "knows" its there because her faith tells her so. I loved that about the Living Water scene. For Din, it was like seeing the Vatican. It was this deeply religious and meaningful moment. For Bo, it was like giving a tour at a theme park. The best part of this season has been watching her find her faith in the culture that she, admittedly, never really believed in before.

It was a fantastic episode! Remember that advancing the “Mandalorian adventures” plot of the show is not the primary reason for the season. We all just assumed. Gideon, Grogu’s decision for future… so many directions to go.

[@Kyoril]

What I found most impressive about the opening scene. We assume, incorrectly it turns out that Grogu is practicing his use of the force to push little rocks around. Except it's then revealed those are not rocks but something close to hermit crabs and he is actually connecting with and compelling them to move in the directions he desires. In the forge the Armorer speaks truth that the forge reveals weakness. Grogus weakness is him being held back by his past trauma, which the forge revealed.

[@secretagenttau2233]

They aren't nerfed at all. Their blasters could do nothing and it would kill the child

[@suinegagpf]

On the bright side, your reaction is likely to spur increased engagement this week. Highly recommend you look up who Ahmed Best is before your next reaction. The guy was bullied and tormented for his portrayal of Jar Jar Binks in the prequels. So to see him get a chance to play the character, a Jedi no less, who saves Grogu was aw inspiring.

[@psychokitty71]

I think that it would have been much less disappointing to you guys if you had recognized the actor playing Kelleran. The character of Kelleran might not be part of the main story before this, but the actor playing him was. That feeling of recognition and nostalgia was missing for you guys without recognizing him, so the episode was disappointing to you. he wasn't a "no-name" Jedi, you just weren't able to recognize him.

Someone like Kelleran Beq is a great deep modern fanservice cut for who saved Grogu since it gives Ahmed Best more cool action time on the Star Wars screen...and because the Jedi's role previously was tied closely to children. Because all the BIG name Jedi Masters....we know where they were at this point....or how they died. They could've pulled a character from an old pre-Disney era novel or something but that wouldn't be recognizable to most people. There are a couple people on the Jedi Council that we don't have accounted for....and I do think having it be Oppo Rancisis that saved him would've been awesome.... but a giant snake man Jedi would also be way more expensive.

[@Omegafire17]

Not just that, but their leaps of logic and/or assumptions. Ie, that "I don't trust her" response after the Armorer's response... when it could simply be that she didn't understand Bo's true meaning and there's no deeper plot at work? The idea that the Mandos on display here - explicitly not going in hard, because they don't want to hurt the child; duh - are 'nerfed' because they're not guns blazing level of strong at every moment? The disappointment at Grogu's rescuer not being some big-name, or even bothering to figure out who he was? Normally their style would work and such bits were simply comedic, so it could be brushed off. But now it's showing that beneath that, it's a rather narrow-minded approach to the content that they have (whether they realize it or not), and I have to say that rubs me the wrong way

[@melodicchronic5181]

It was mostly to show some of Grogu's Order 66 moment, and then to strengthen the bonds between Bo and the rest of this clan. Also, I'm guessing it was a setup to show how this group of Mandalorians end up with these huge flying creatures that will be their companions that they ride and use to be a higher order of Mandalorians once they all get back to Mandalore. Kind of like in Avatar. They'll be the only Mandalorians that have these huge flying creatures as part of their clan so they will likely be the highest order. On a side note, I don't presonally read about fan theories or rumored storylines, and I feel like I'm more pleased with what I see in the episodes as a result. It's all unknown, so what actually happens is totally fine. Constantly looking at those rumors may actually be negatively effecting your opinion of the end results, where you may have been okay with them without the rumors. Not asking you to change what you're doing, just a thought.

The last 8-10 minutes of the last episode of Season 2 with Luke coming to find Grogu was epic, but it took the whole season of story telling to get to that point and to set the scene properly. Idk if it is a case of these reactors wanting instant gratification all the time, or they just cannot control their expectations on each episode.

[@decky4892]

Average star wars fans expecting absolutely everything in the world again again, smh.

[@aegon1targaryen208]

Y’all really said that was disappointing 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

[@antharg.g8360]

this episode is really good for the more hard core fans beacuse it has more hard to discover references

[@beskarkid]

The only thing disappointing is the fact that you both don't know who that Jedi was and who is playing him. Worst reaction. 👎👎

[@santiagomonteromendez1371]

Star Wars fans need to learn to stop wanting to have same old characters interconnected in moments they don't belong🥴🥴 we know were everyone was during Order 66, wanting anybody with Grogu while the events of Clone Wars S7 and ROTS ara happening was just setting yourself up for disappointment

[@beastlydevil777]

Sorry guys but its called the "Mandolorian" for a reason, if you want something other than what they are giving you. Then just rewatch Rogue One and Andor.

[@NymeriaDT]

My dear Padawans! Ahmed Best played Jar-Jar Binks in the prequels as well. That's the point of this actor's returns aside from the fact he trained Jedi in the loosely based canon "Jedi Challenge. What that scene was really trying to say, with a wink, is that Jar Jar Binks saved Grogu. Do better research!

[@hellaflush787]

The episode was Good bro but yes it was too short

[@jacktheflash8478]

It wasn’t that short

[@2KILLAVILLE]

​@@jacktheflash8478 I enjoyed but this was the shortest ep so far this season..only like 30 mins

[@PsychoSpiral]

Well, those "dragons" did flew a great long distance. So, I think it was a good set up that those dragon/wyvern/whatever is gonna help the Mandalorians retake Mandalor. Maybe, a call back to what their ancestors probably used to do, riding wildlife.

[@perrycampbell6499]

This the best episode so far. Jar Jar Binks is back!!!!!!!!😊😊😊

[@lindab1686]

Feel like you guys are way off! Grogu saved by Keilleran Beq aka Jar Jar was epic! Saved by Naboo. It was awesome! Grogu training! The Mandalorians following Bo Katan. Sorry guys you missed the mark this time

[@MJSushi]

Its definitely sad and disappointing that they didn't actually look to see who played Kell. They had it right in their hands. I was hoping to get a good reaction. Def disappointed and sadly lost the motivation and positively. My expectations of this channel have def dropped below the "Friday" song. Especially after watching others who rarely watch Star Wars. Or know little about it. They were able to know or look into Kell. And were very excited and realized.

[@Laochri]

You are way too critical. Kelleran Beq is the Jedi is played by Ahmed Best. Ahmed Best is the actor that played Jar Jar Binks.

[@BabyMayCry]

The theories about Jar Jar saving Grogu turned out to be true, in a way.. Happy to see Ahmed as a Jedi.

[@RZR1973]

Disappointed, yes, but not in the episode. More in the fact that you guys didn’t know who Kelleren Beq is. He is canon and the fact that you didn’t recognize Ahmad Best aka Jar Jar Binks.

[@Wryyyyyyyyyyyyu]

The Mandalorian’s middle episodes have always been filled with random side quests lmao. It’s just thar S2 was cameo galore so it was covered by the hype factor.

[@sarcasmxkate]

They did give us a fan service moment with who saved Grogu, it just wasn't in a Luke Skywalker type of way. The Jedi saving Grogu was played by Ahmed Best, who played Jar Jar Binks and was on the receiving end of some really horrible and toxic behavior on behalf of Star Wars "fans" for years. I found the choice of using him far more satisfying than a known character. Not everything should be a massive moment because there are other Jedi that matter and should have their time in the sun if we want the world to actually feel lived in. I also love how much people found last week's episode too much of a detour when that episode is probably one of the more important ones. Not only continuing the plot thread from season 1, but also setting up the future of this show and possibly others shows like Ahsoka. I'll also just be honest and say after Andor I'm having trouble turning off that part of my Star Wars brain. I obviously love Mando, but wish it had the quality care Andor did, not that it was the same tone or feel.

[@Aristocles22]

Grogu still needs to finish his Jedi training, but this is good for now.

[@davidm7847]

It’s already been established that Padmé was out the loop during Order 66 but it would’ve been delicious if she had saved Younglings from Palpatine and Anakin / Vader. It’s definitely the Naboo security forces though. That’s a Nubian (?) starship, just like the ones she used throughout the PT.

[@Chaosm03]

It could been under the orders of some of her hand maidens. From the comics we know they formed their own little group to carry on Padme's legacy. They even took on Vader a couple of years later.

[@davidm7847]

@@Chaosm03 I’ve looked in to that comic arc. I’d be down with that.

[@Chaosm03]

It would be crazy to see Kira Knightley come back for this. But, I'll interested to see which ever way they go on this.

[@michaelellis1819]

This reaction was nothing but complaining 😂

[@harley2704]

You guys didn’t recognize Ahmed Best while watching this episode? Really? I thought you were fans! 😅

[@harley2704]

Felt like you guys were doing a lot of nitpicking with this episode, but completely ignoring certain story details, while focusing on nonsense. Mid? (Hate that word) Really?

[@markphillips4643]

Have watched your reaction videos for some time. A bit of constructive encouragement: your commentary on this show would get even better if you could each do a basic study of philosophy of religion. The significance of individual, specific actions in these episodes would make more sense to you in the scheme of the overall plot. Love you guys. Peace.

[@crymeariver221]

Y'all need friends in reality like stfu

[@DToomer]

You’re asking waaay to much of them, & I’m saying that as somebody who watches/likes the channel. Lol.

[@mayacurran6412]

That was Ahmed best who played the Jedi! He played jar jar!

[@RatedRY]

I mean, this may have been my favorite episode of the show. Lol. To each his own I guess.

[@zazoreal5536]

That is Kelleren Beq. He is the master that Ahmed Best who also plays Jar Jar played as in some sort of Star Wars game show. Ye you don't want the foundling to fall in the water.

[@josephsanchez2481]

It’s all setting up for something big and these mandos are in training since other professional mandos died in season one

[@lillykawaiifox]

In past seasons, Din Djarin himself had flashbacks from when he was a kid when he was staring at the forge. It's not surprising at all Grogu did the same.

[@Transhumanist_Adam]

This was the best episode. Peak Star Wars. The new Jedi is still alive too right? They didn’t kill him? Edit: this episode was sooooo coool. New caracters are awesome, world would be too small if we just saw the same Jedi over and over

[@tonyv.945]

U guys are losing ur audience and seem a bit out of touch and step with the fandom. Not sure what u guys are looking for as that was peak Mando and an exciting episode-- at least to me it was

[@AL-fl4jk]

This reaction channel feels like it’s slowly degraded into trolling 😂

[@TheReDeeMeR1988]

By spitting facts? Bruh....please...

[@philip07304]

Hey, your expectations seems to way to high and than your complaining that you didn’t get what you wanted but you should just let the show tell you the story first and there are 4 more episodes left to cover more of the story.

[@alauri83]

I liked this episode!!! Just enjoy the episode seems like y'all over thinking everything and judgy seems like all your reactions are like that

[@Ryu62Alpha]

Key points to keep in mind is that the actor playing the Jedi that saves Grogu is played by Ahmed Best, who played Jar Jar And the ship they get into is Senator Jar Jar's I can understand if significance is lost on casual fans that aren't aware of the prequals, or bts The other fun fact is the character that Best plays is Kelleran Beq, who was a character designed for a Star Wars kid's game show. There is a LOT of meta stuff going on here, this was 100% fan service It's unfortunate that it seems to let rumours dictate your expectations, instead of letting the story unfold and enjoying the ride. Grogu's saviour isn't who you wanted them to be, but maybe let the writers introduce someone new to you?

[@alxiian]

Yeah this was the best episode so far

[@braddollahite]

another good story telling episode, its great to see Ahmed Best back in SW after all the crap he got from "so called true" star wars fans who should be ashamed of themselves but was great to see him again. Plus SW jedi temple challenge was fun to watch. There is a rumor that one of the jedi defending Grogu was Cin Drallig but i thought he got killed by Anakin during the raid, not sure though. But again another good episode.
