The Mandalorian S1E4

I am not convinced. Mandalorian is by culture not by blood. This is why they wear those masks, with the masks they are all the same as culture unites them not race. How can you leave your culture behind and go hiding on a forest backwater world? Also, there is no need to be mandalorian to be good warrior, star wars is full of good warriors from different races/cultures fighting on both sides.

 

Jawas...disgusting creatures!

 

Soo-ga!

 

Ahahaha ...

(repost from another forum!)

 

I was looking for a pic of that soo-ga and stumbled upon this:

 

Love the drawings, Krali Marko Vizla . Mando needs to keep all foods exotic, different and nothing earth like. Not that Baby will eat it. We already know frogs are yummy, but The Kid was quick, he let the frog slide back out of his mouth when the children showed disgust.

Kato Sai, Cara and Mando I think are pretty evenly matched. They were wrestling and we've not seen Mando do any wrestling.. He's very quick on the draw and using his built in armor tools. Mando was dragged in and looks pretty ragged being flipped over and over on the floor. Definately not his forte. Training in the future?

 

She would be a Mando in hiding, perhaps to survive like the Jedi (Cal Kestis) during Order 66, she had to hide her Mando identity. If the Empire is purging you, you might refrain from helmets that identify you as a Mandalorian.

Amen. Jawas are traitors.

 

I think part of the problem was that the fight seemed unnecessary. If the fight wasn’t necessary, what was the point? I can understand why people think the only point was to show that the female character could take down the male lead.

Now was that put in the episode to make some sort of “woke” statement or because a large part of the audience would never just assume a female warrior was the equal to the male lead so she had to prove it?

I don’t know which it was. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was both.

 

I was fine with Cara and Mando ending their rough rumble in a draw; it was that Mando seemed so uncharacteristically weak and stupid. He saw with his infared tracker that footsteps stopped and the only logical explanation is above you, but he acts disoriented. Then in the fight he uses his falmethrower (which is getting overused in the show, we get it, he has a flamethrower already).

My issue is not with Cara in the tumble, but that Mando after all surviving, suspecting, and taking down Trandoshians:



Then auddenly is indept at realizing someone is gonna drop on him? Poor writing.

 

Maybe he was underestimating her abilities? Seems like that sort of thing happens all the time...

 

Mm.. maybe, but when she disappears off his scops he sould have been ready.

 

Not sure why I got a clouded... I was just pondering both sides of the issue. I guess this day and age if you try to see both sides and don’t assume the other side is either an out of date Neanderthal or a tree hugging hippie you’re bound to piss someone off.

 

We all have our “certain points of view.” As I have said, Cara Dune’s part of the fight I find issue with, just Mando’s lack of vigilance when he had Trandoshians attack in Ep2 and fought strong:



As for sexism, I have been labeled a liar in this thread and now sexist? In my family I am surrounded by working strong women. I have no issue with women being powerful, I am a big Rey fan, and Mara Jade Skywalker is one of my all time favs characters: and I love Padme, and Rose Tico. All strong female characters. My issue is Mando, not Cara Dune, I am disappointed with his prowess.

I’m done..

DONe with Star Wars, done with this forum.

Givin my tickets away.

Its obvious the dark side of labels, predjudiced, and rash judgements win. Goodbye everyone.

 

Those Jawas totally stripped his ride. Good thing he found out their soo-ga weakness, but only thanks to Kuiil. Of course baby Yoda had to save him from the mudhorn when he went to get the soo-ga. Then he fought a bunch of other bounty hunters and had to get saved by the other Mandalorians at the expense of exposing themselves and forcing them to then relocate. I’d say fighting to a draw with a former Shock Trooper (elite combat stormtrooper) is not a bad showing, all things considered.

I still think he’s a great character. I enjoy seeing him in his element, going into dangerous places without fear and being able to take down multiple opponents. But he’s not perfect and makes mistakes, especially when out of his comfort zone, like taking on an armored mobile fortress, fighting a giant mindless beast, or going toe to toe with an elite combat veteran.

 

You should have spoken.
