The Mandalorian S2E6 - Chapter 14: The Tragedy

I like this theory....so basically keeping Yoda’s “there is another” line referring to Leia intact as Ahsoka did not consider herself a “Jedi” at that time? And now she has made some sort of “epiphany” and has changed her mind, maybe for the sake of Grogu?

 

Has Boba Fett moved higher on people's list as a favorite character now? He's still in my top 10 or or so but I sure like him even more now!

 

I never really cared about Boba Fett one way or the other besides just thinking he was overrated. Keep in mind I never read any of the Legends stuff but only saw what the movies gave us. I thought Boba was extremely annoying in the Clone Wars, but he was just a kid and of course he’d be different as an adult.

I did not expect him to have “grown” so much, or at least he wasn’t the angry jerk I was expecting him to be if he came back. Yes, obviously there was some rage there in his gaffe stick fight (!!), but he was reasonable and I really dug his code of honor (however it turns out to be structured).

So while he’s not in my top ten or anything, I like Boba now and if he wants to make me like him more, I’m open to the idea.

 

Omg, I'm still putting together my art studio section for modeling. I just bought an airbrush booth and mask to paint my Star Wars Bandai model kits and dioramas. I'm also trying to learn digital art since I'm more of a traditional artist, so now everyone is getting 3d printers!!! I know some modelers are getting 3d printers to make their own modeling kits and sculptures. I'll catch up someday but by that time a new tool will emerge. Sounds really cool though!

I started watching Lonewolf and Cub again because the Mandalorian is partially inspired by the aforementioned show. I don't believe Grogu and Din will ever part at least not for a few seasons. In Lonewolf and Cub, the father is a master samurai and his son has seen so much death and bloodshed as he travels with his father, something Din has stated at the beginning of season 2 episode 1.

In the later seasons of Lonewolf and Cub, which I haven't watched yet, the son grows up significantly, so I believe we'll see Grogu grow up to Yoda's height before they part ways (we're getting at least 4 seasons, and some concept art images in the art of the Mandalorian show a bigger/older Grogu).

Just as Ahsoka did not want to train Grogu for his attachment to his father I believe other Jedi will do the same, if not we might have an Anakin situation on our hands going forward.

Luke wore Black when he force choked those Gamorrean Guards in Jabba's Palace. Luke was treading the Darkside just like Kylo but Luke chose the light. We also see Grogu force choking Stormtroopers so whoever decides to train Grogu will have to be very careful.

I just want to know if the Moff is defeated will we see Grand Admiral Thrawn teased for next season, or will Thrawn be reserved for the much-rumored Ahsoka show?

 

I really hope Cobb Vanth returns to join Din's team but not sure why he would. I mean they're even and why would he leave his town that he cares for so much to take on the empire and help rescue Grogu, who he didn't really interacted much with.

Boba Fett and Fennec promised to be in Din's debt to help Grogu after getting the armor back, Cara Dune pulled some strings with prison records and may join Din because they're friends and she's now New Republic anyway, Mayfield will have the option to either help Din on a crazy mission and possibly be freed or get time shaved off afterwards or stay in prison to rott, Bo-Katan may return and she's already after Gideon for the dark sabre.

Cobb would basically just be there to interact with Boba and maybe get some answers on why Boba didn't go after Vanth.

 

I am interested in the Jedi call.
If it's Luke answering, it will be curious. I remember one of the last Hamill's interviews (i think 4-6 weeks ago, I can't find the videochat sorry). In there he said his Star Wars days are over.

Maybe they have not asked him yet for, basically, appear in season 3 or 4 and he doesn't know.
Or basically he is not who will answer the call.
But if finally Luke appears, it will be a big surprise and a very well kept secret (at this point it's a fanbase theory, like other Jedi), unless they use a double or the every day more effective deepfake.

 

Is Boba Fett a true Mandalorian or not? I did not fully understand this. And of course also his father Jango.

But I thought Luke closed himself to the Force. Am I right? Sorry but I may have forgotten something about The Last Jedi.

 

Boba is a clone of his 'dad' Jango, Jango was a foundling like Din Djarin so had the right to armour. Boba has never committed himself to the way of the mandalorian but has a right to the armor as it was his 'father" or adopted father what ever you want to call him.

The Mandalorian takes place way before Luke closed himself off from the force, at this point Ben would only be 5 or 6, so its along time before that flash back we see in the Last Jedi were Luke pulls his lightsaber on Ben, at least 24 years, as we know from the book 'Bloodlines' Luke and Ben where still together Jedi training 6 years before force awakens.

We don't really know where Luke is at this time or what he is doing, but there is nothing in cannon that says he wasn't an active Jedi

 

Start at the 10:01 point of this video, gives a good explanation of Jango's lineage

 

So far I have been very pleased with Season 2. There has definitely not been a let down From Season 1 which could have happened. Overall I thought this episode was good and confused to move the story to wards the finale in 2 weeks

As far as the jet pack, Boba telling Mando to put it down is just a plot device so that Mando would not have it on when the Dark troopers appear.

Mando not having it at the end does not mean he left it. They just did not need to show him picking it back up. This is similar to Luke and his light saber at the end of Return of the Jedi. Also he would not need to be wearing it at the end if he was just going to talk with Cara

 

If Din dies at the end of the series, Grogu already has the right to his armor!?

I guess he needs to learn how to talk by the end so can be like "mine, it is!" as he tries to pick up the helmet

 

Because his old trainer(s) died before he completed his training? Seems pretty obvious. Also I think him having been trained by many masters implies he was still a youngling with only basic training, too, which further proofs the incompleteness of his training.

Boba Fett is STILL not a Mandalorian. However he is the "son" of a Mandalorian now as they now for the first time ever made Jango Fett a true Mandalorian. Although not a Mandalorian like Bo-Katan and her companions, but one like our titular Mandalorian Din Djarin who became Mandalorian by taing the creed of a splinter group of Mandalorians who follow the old ways of the Mandalore.

Basically: Jango => True Mandalorian, Boba => Not Mandalorian. Din Djarin lets the Non-Mandalorian Boba Fett keep the Mandalorian armour, because he didn't steal the armour from a Mandalorian but inherited it from a Mandalorian (his father Jango).

 

No. Boba never took the creed. He very clearly is not considered Mandalorian and doesn't consider himself a Mandalorian, too. He probably could join if he wanted to as it is like you said: Mandalorians are no longer simply "Persons born on Mandalore" but it goes beyond that and is more like a "religion" in a way.

Well, it didn't seem he doesn't want to be a Jedi, did it? After all he uses the force, he was fine with communicating with anouther light side force user in Ahsoka and he utilized a Jedi temple relic. It very much seems like he at least chose the light side. But of course they could change that up. I don't think they will, but it would be possible.

 

Thank you for putting that in perspective. I really don't expect to see Luke. Just guessing but I kind of expect if a Jedi should appear at all it will be one we never heard about. On the other hand I never expected to see Boba F here or CGI Leia in Rogue One. For a longgg time I thought ROTJ was the end of on screen Star Wars. We will have to wait and see. I'd be pleased to even hear Mark's voice as Luke but have doubts that they would want to fork out the kind of money he might get for it. Given how stealthy Jedi can be Luke could be in and out unseen and unheard. Stuff done by an unseen hand. Perhaps we see the Jedi hand and the Jedi cloak.
