Wish I hadn't been on meds so I could have cried. Damn fine show.

Goddamn google news spoiled it before I could watch. That said I loved it.

The best they have ever put out. I have been geeking on this stuff 41 years, I literally am stunned by the entire thing. I expected nothing

I screamed and my family had to come check on me. I was too excited. No spoilers, but I hope everyone enjoys it as much as this thread did.
TheEmperorofManlovesTacos
Me for the entirety of the last ten minutes:
OGBearbear
This is the best no spoilers way of saying you enjoyed something, and I adore you for it friend
90sLego
Can't believe Mando came out as transgender. So brave and emotional
skylynx
Actually, in current year it wouldn't surprise me one bit. Although we would already be facing outrage of twitter activists protesting /1
skylynx
that Pedro Pascal isn't a real trans person and shouldn't be cast for the role./2
tlamstrike
Spoilers follow...
tlamstrike
I felt they took the safe route with who it was. I really wish they brought back another Jedi like Corran Horn or Kyle Katarn. ...
tlamstrike
...Who took Baby Yoda to train is likely to just get him killed.
derktoon
Kyle has been fully written out of existance. He was the one whole stole the death star plans in the original EU, so i dont see him returnin
damnkids
It set up at least 3 other series. It's going to be non stop Star Wars from here.
softballguy
MBdub210
Love him!!! I just wanted to reach out and cuddle him after that moment!
illogical06
If one does not care for star wars, could they still like this series?
whencatsattack64
I'm more of a Trekkie. Mostly watch SW because my husband loves it and it's okay I guess. But I have absolutely loved this series.
MBdub210
Nope. The first season, maybe. Now it just wouldn’t make sense.
iamdanman
Almost shat my pants
maddmurph
Exactly my reaction
Malibloo
What is it with people and their loose sphincter control when they're excited?
iamdanman
Bad eating habits and constant diarrhea
MrPunisherMan
I almost shat this man’s pants

SometimesOthertimesAnytime
Just watched it. Absolutely awesome!
nuclearpotatoDK
If you watch closely you can tell, the "Luke" actor does a whoosh sound when he does the force push
UnitedPaper
On one hand I’m like, Yesss! but on the other I’m like, noooo—I mean I wanted it, but somewhere else, does that make sense?
Gleipner
It makes total sense, what do you mean?
gordy77
I was expecting anyone but you know who. And it was tastefully done.
SometimesOthertimesAnytime
Totally understand.
D1RTYPENGU1N
Not sure how I felt about it... wish they stayed away from that a bit. But I have to know where they are going from here
S117MC
Season 3 should be out late next year
flamingflamingo
Well, Mando is apparently a king now, but he's all but given up his creed. They also hinted that Moff Gideon was making Jedi clones.
ZeroLogain
See, I didn't think it was all that great. Pacing felt off, the cameo was cool but made the universe feel smaller again.
SnakuPlisskin
I agree. Plus I'm not a fan of when they ramp up the difficulty way past what the protagonists can handle then have some deus ex machina
MrsVond
Yeah that gets tiring. And they tend to overuse it along the series. After reading spoiler free reaction I really thought someone died
ZeroLogain
Right? Why build these guys up just to show us a character we know is a badass is a basass? Especially for them to just walk out the show.
ZeroLogain
I think I would have liked it more if they'd fought first, got through the batch outside the door, and he showed up finishing off the last.
flamingflamingo
It felt appropriate to me. He's the most active one since the Return of the Jedi, he basically won the galaxy again and his story continues.
ZeroLogain
I mean I get that, and I didn't hate it, and if any Jedi was going to get the call and track them down it would be him, it does make sense.
SnoozeBotz
Watching Return of the Jedi now because of how hype that ending got me.
imgurnaknockuout
Honestly, thought it was epic. Hoping the special picks up right where this ended
flamingflamingo
Special? You mean the holiday thing? I thought that was just the release of the Making Of documentary.
clid3r
Special?
Fravash
I just want more stories that aren't revolved around the freaking Skywalkers.
kalijinn
Preach! Exactly where I was at.
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
It's a good thing then that this was just a cameo. Much like Ahsoka's. Gotta hand it to Favreau and Filoni, they didn't write anyone ...
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
famous into the show until Mando and the other unique characters were well-established and had become fan favorites.The entire first season…
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
stood on its own without any famous Star Wars bigwigs.

terryr
I couldn't believe Moff Gideon and Ahsoka Tano were the same person.
stankginchfurbuger
When grogu put the sandworms all over his body and became the god emperor, I just about jizzed my pants
shug12
Stupid fish speakers
spookymormonhelldream
Dude. You gotta say "spoilers" first. Plus. I don't know how you didn't see that coming. They made it so obvious
Spanky93
Was that before Rey used the force to travel back in time and it was discovered that she was actually Anakin’s mom?
Fuzzysteve
umm, have you seen the lego starwars holiday special...
MrsVond
Do you mean after she changed gender from male Qui-Gon to female Rey?
TravellingLlama
I...I don’t know enough to fully understand the significance of the linear-ness of the timeline. I *feel* like it’s out of sequence
Zadwanaa
It was after the original trilogy
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
It's set in 9 ABY, 5 years after ROTJ. Around the time Luke started to try and rebuild the Jedi order. Ben would have still been an infant.
wakar1ma5en
The Mandalorian takes place 5 years after Return of the Jedi I think.
MrsVond
Yes
Orhoz
Will admit I yelled out "oh shit!!" When I realized what was happening
chrklCookieTraveler
Are you referring to the Jedi or the after credits scene?
Orhoz
Both lol
somethingdark
"Oh hey, it's.. waaaait a second... yooo! (Wait, when does this show take place?) Yoooooooooo!"
MrsVond
Hahaha had the same reaction
flamingflamingo
I thought I knew who that was. Thought maybe a cameo from one of the prequels. But then I saw the hands and I was like SHIT! SHIT!
yayaythrowawayyyc
I was expecting Ezra and then the wardrobe... and the blade colour...
flamingflamingo
I read an article that speculated it would be Mace Windu, but as soon as I saw the green lightsaber I was like, is it misdirection or no?
spookymormonhelldream
I was muttering, "there's no way" over and over
FractalChainsaw
I was expecting the New Republic officer at first, didn't realize they were gonna go all-in like they did. Very pleasant surprise.
forsureoneear
*SPOILERS IN MY REPLY*
forsureoneear
Why'd he leave Moff Gideon? He's been around since the GCW right? I just... ugh I don't like parts of this
DisneyCountdowns
It would have been awkward if Boba stayed & helped with the attack & then Luke showed up and was like “Boba, sorry about that Sarlac thing”.
Orhoz
Boba says nothing and just flips him off
somebodysomewheresomehow
I legit squealed and went full fan boy!
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
X-Wing? Green? No. Can't be. One glove? Fuuuuck...
DeNanz
Bruh.. Too soon, give people time to watch it
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
If I hadn't seen it yet, I'd hit "Next" on every Mando-related thread. Maybe avoid the internet altogether.It's bound to be full of spoilers
BallistixKitty
That's a pretty good play by play of my thought process.
DeltaLaw
Good thing it was in the title of an article in my Google News feed ON THE DAY THE EPISODE WAS RELEASED
Varenvel
:D i was like "ooooh , oooooooooohhhhhhh ,. ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" its such a good series , such good script and character development
WilliamWeird
Man, they really milked the reveal for the longest time. Enough for everyone in the room to speculate.
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
As soon as I saw that black glove, I knew it. Didn't even have to see the lightsaber hilt up close.
bluejolt
Lone x-wing was the giveaway. It eliminated Ezra, Cal, and Obi.
TerryCrews
Same. I saw the x-wing and thought no fucking way.
iamthekmac
Obi wan is dead at this point...
bluejolt
Sorry, I think I was meaning to say ahsoka and my wife was talking about the upcoming obi wan series. Lol
IlexLegion
As soon as I saw the lightsaber color, I suspected, but the glove confirmed it for me
WellBehavedZombie
As soon as I saw him come in, I realized it wasn't Asohka. Then I was like wait, Thrawn is cannon and I was like who's the jediiiiiii in it!
ThunderChief00
Yeah, because of the color of the thing I knew it wasn't her so it must have been someone else. Someone with certain transportation...
GrumpyOldMillennial
I must have been the only person to not really get excited for the (actually not great) cameo. Boba fett returning was more exciting IMHO
Vaiden02
His deep fake totally killed it for me.
GrumpyOldMillennial
It was just, kinda jarring. Like, I get that the budget wasnt huge, but the cgi wasn't good. I've seen better deepfakes on tiktok ffs.
sadsquatch
Me too! I even stood up. The only part of my seat I was using was the edge. I had a boner. Okay. I had a Star Wars boner.
HoleyNutSack
Is that a light saber or are you enjoying the show?
WilliamWeird
It's my Schwartz, thanks. I got it from my master.
Sendmen00ts
malvithus
Until you realize luke take him to the training ground with kylo and then in a few years kylo kills all of the younglings...
misterCT
“No no no, I killed AT Yung-Ling’s”
catlovesfood
That’s roughly 20 years from the episode. Grogu would still be a child by the rate of his species, he might’ve flown under the radar
ThePolarMole
Thats dependant, yoda was a full master by 100 I think, the next 50 years could be accelerated growth for the species, hence the eating 1/2
ThePolarMole
2/2 20years down the line could be a teenage Grogu
Vaiden02
And I hope he’s nothing like teenage groot
larrythelobster626
Shhhhhh I want to pretend those movies never happened
nouseforaheart
Shhh, shh, it's all right, Uncle Jon Favreau will make it all better
GrumpyOldMillennial
Hey, Disney decannonized the largest EU in any IP, and retconned everything. They could easily do it to the 3 garbage sequels too.
LettermanAirsoft
Oh shit oh fuck
NaughtyNinja74
Kylo following in his grandfather's steps even more
Duckjo
I legitimately started sobbing when the credits started to roll. For this particular, most likely theory..
mugsyotoole
I predict Mando goes full John Wick when he realizes what happened. Goes after Luke for letting it happen, which is why he goes into hiding.
Vaiden02
I’m down with that thesis
ifiwereapancakeiwouldbeachocolatechippancake
?? you just made me realize this
FuzzyX
Order 66.
pickleparty91
Spoilers next comment...
Cackfog
Bruce Willis is a ghost!
pickleparty91
I was expecting a Jedi to show up but not Luke which was still cool but I was expecting like mace windy or someone more obscure so the
swedeonamoose
Was soooo hoping for Kyle Katarn =(
BlancheTuttle
When I saw the XWing fly by I thought it was those new republic dudes. Then it landed and I yelled "IT'S RED FIVE! THATS RED FIVE!!"
pickleparty91
Storyline wouldn’t get as twisted with 7-9 I think it’s gonna confuse the plot a bit
iputthefiresout
I was almost certain it'd be him. I thought potentiality Ezra, but I figured they'd save him for Ahsoka's TV show
Alsenoth
I was hoping for Cal Kestus, personally. Did not even think Luke was a possibility. So happy with the results.
misterCT
That’s woulda been dope too
HiMyNameIsKevinIHaveChangnesia
I never finished Rebels but I’m hoping Ezra stops being a whiny petulant thing before it’s over? I cannot stand that kid.
KevynDietz
He grows up over the course of the show, yes.
iputthefiresout
Like Ahsoka in Clone Wars, he goes from insufferable to one of the best parts of the show over the course of the series
HiMyNameIsKevinIHaveChangnesia
Oh good. I’m about 1/3 into season 3 and ugh it’s dragging so I haven’t watched much lately.
CaveCanem
I really hoped for a no-handed Mace, just using the Force for /everything/, and Boba still having a strong grudge and conflict of interest
pickleparty91
Oooh forgot about this that woulda been dope mechanized arm and a fight with boba
lotsofpun
Darth Windu! (He did fall...)
jbcars4life
I was thinking StarKiller
StephenDaniels
Now the question is did the kid survive 2 jedi purges or do we have a whole new reason to hate Kylo Ren?
daddymeatbone
Before I remembered the timeline I was hoping it was gonna be Kenobi with a "hello there" tying into his spinoff
DoYouHaveYourTowel
NotaCPA
oh god, Kenobi, with a "Hello there!". I would have had an earth-shattering nerdgasm
CuntingtonFuckley
I thought the exact same thing
birencall
The CGI (unnamed to avoid spoilers) character was a little creepy, even my kids thought so.
TheMightyPIKE
It was so cool once I knew he was coming. The cgi wasn’t great. I can’t imagine he will be in a lot of future episodes
FiftyShadesOfMascarpone
It looked a bit cheap compared to R1's CGI Tarkin. But it did its job. Can't have everything in Hollywood blockbuster quality in a TV show.
UraniusCrack
why didn't they just choose an actor who kinda looks the part?
outtaleftfield
Some of the lines, the mouth didn’t move quite right but over all, I thought it was pretty good considering the source material
evilgriff
They could have just cast that one guy that looks like him.
outtaleftfield
There’s a guy that looks like that version!? Did not know that
arrowed2
Sebastian Stan
outtaleftfield
Holy shit. Did not put that together. Thanks
dzack
You could tell the production team even thought it was bad. They cut away from the face when he starts talking.
rbudrick
Astronaut with a gun.
DesignINcase
If it was ever decided to do more with the character, I'd suggest recasting in this situation.
daddymeatbone
Sebastian Stan!
nuclearpotatoDK
I don't get why they don't use deep fake technology, when they even have the original actor it should be easy enough.
WynonasBigBrownBeaver
The best description was that it was like a Snapchat filter lol
LW1981
The mouth moved, but the top half of the face didn't move, and it was noticeable.
spookymormonhelldream
Make sure you stay for the post credit scene
selfmemeicating
powering up disney again...
Bastargre
This is the way
Billiford1
Yes!!! This!!! Listen to this!!!
YayItsMillerTime
I almost missed that one
LucidAftermath
Ill to go back now. Do all eps have a post credit scene? Have I been missing out?
thorinc
No, the others all just show story boards and art
GumontheLeg
Where can I buy some of those, dang they would be cool
Omnislash9
Was about to fall asleep but this comment made me get up, put contacts back in and turn the ps4 on to watch it. Worth it!
paoloforprez
Fuckin a now you have me getting out of bed. Thank you
MadeAnAccountSoTheLogInPopUpStops
I don't know enough star wars to get it I think
SaltyEsq
Return of the Jedi first hour
Ixadias
Jabba's already dead. Fett killed his old right hand man, and is taking over the tattoine cartel it looks like
Ryanzie
Maybe the Book of Boba Fett is about Bobas shit list of people who fucked him over and now hes crossing them off
NCPBullet
So new starwars has taken a ton of stuff from the legacy books. I hope this about the bounty hunter wars
Ryanzie
That would be awesome. I'm guessing he would have a bone to pick with the person who left him for dead in a sarlac pit
CloakedFigure
Gotta make the money, credit's no good, when the Jawas run the shop in your neighborhood
