The Mandalorian The Mandalorian 3.04 - Chapter 20 - Discussion Thread (Spoilers Allowed)

Some of the complaints remind me of the scene in the Simpsons where one of the nerd characters complains about one of Itchy’s ribs making two distinctly different sounds when Scratchy plays it like a xylophone.

Sometimes we just gotta accept this is space fantasy. I don’t need to know how dragons can breathe fire, and I don’t need to know how a space reptile’s gastric juice’s didn’t eat through a foundling’s armor.

 

Exactly.

It really all depends on the genre. If it's a more realistic form as we see in Andor, more realism is required. But clearly the Mandalorian is not going for hard realism.

 

He just does. This is the way.

 

It's impressive for a credited actor (starting to rival Silas Carson and Alan Roscoe). Though in the OT, bit actors were cycled very frequently. Many actors would be reused for army scenes as Rebels or Stormtroopers. Just look at Alan Harris, Dickey Beer and Trevor Butterfield, for instance.

Also, I'm glad to see everyone behind Ahmed Best this time around. This isn't just an apology for the actions of some deranged critics in the past, but a second chance in Star Wars to a very genuine human being.

 

When the rescue team was scaling the cliff, I really wanted some random cameo by a character sticking their head out of a cave, like the people looking out at Batman and Robin when they were climbing an apartment building in the old TV show.

 

Huge missed opportunity.

 

Not long enough.

 

As is the nearly nonexistent public healthcare system that makes these commercials normal.

 

Be water my friend.

 

Goes to show just how brainwashed the Clones now are after the Order 66 chip activation... They're not just willing to raid the Temple, but endanger innocent citizens by trying to shoot down Kelleran as he flies through Coruscant.

I can only imagine what Bo Katan is thinking about the Children of the Watch... can't even eat together? While out in the middle of the dangerous wild? Have to separate to eat... How dangerous and risky is that?

7/10 on this one for me.

 

"Boy, these people are weird and dumb with their weird and dumb rules. Good thing I have plot armor."

 

Their helmets are within arm's reach, they're wearing the rest of their armor and have all their weapons to hand, and everyone else is within easy earshot. I don't think it's all that dangerous to eat separately. No more than stepping away to answer nature's call. Less, in fact, because they can keep their beskar pants on.
