I am down with this series. Episode two was fun, with some awesome visuals.

I like that he's just not sure how to handle the child. Like just picks it up and puts it back in the baby carrier. Not all cutesy or doting on it.

And I appreciate the gritty take on it. He gets banged up, his stuff gets wrecked, etc.

I'm enjoying it so far, it's fun. Definitely paced like a cartoon, kinda has that feel too. It's nice and simple so far, I'm looking forward to seeing how it opens up.

I loved him pulling out the little knife when he could barely stand.

Really liking the series so far. Favreau knows how to write scenes with minimalist/no dialogue, there also some nice tributes to westerns and old samurai movies.

Yeah, they explicitly drew inspiration from Leone and Kurosawa and you can see it.

“In talking with Jon [Favreau], I was asking him what I should be looking at? I know he loves movies, I love movies…He immediately brought-up Sergio Leone and Akira Kurosawa.”

The Dewdrop character creation was lazy as fuck, they just put legs on a tadpole.

The Dewdrop is from Rebels.

So I learned something new the other night from a friend... Blurrgs were first seen in the 1985 movie "Ewoks: The Battle for Endor"

So it's not a new creation, it's an old callback.

That said I really liked the first episode of Mando.

o it's not a new creation, it's an old callback.

They have used the name but Battle for Endor isn't considered canon although they are given credit in canon as being located across a number of worlds throughout the galaxy including Endor and Ryloth.

The Lone Wolf and Cub vibe is unmistakable in the second episode.

I'm a huge fan of Jawas and was loving this episode. I need to work on my Jawaese don't want to sound like a Wookie

I love Star Wars.

Filthy creatures, was hoping he'd torch some more of them

How dare you. I won't feel bad when I steel all your stuff now .

 

[rustledjimjams]

One stab to kill that monster? Whatever it was an awesome episode anyway.

Throw them all in the Sarlacc pit. Then drop thermal detonators down the hole, then death star the planet.

M'gasha

Spoiler

that's Jawaese for too much

Episode 2 had a better flow to it. I like how they don't fall into the trap of having dialogue just for the sake of having it. No dialogue the first 10 minutes or so and it felt natural. Also, the balance act of his character is working very well imo. Would of been easy to just make him this overpowered badass who handles everything easily, and I'm so glad they didn't go in that direction.

I do expect a more story-driven episode next week though.

Also it was badass to see him use the rifle using cartridges and seeing him take them from his armor.

Giving his shit practicality not just on him cause it looks cool. I've enjoyed seeing him use the tools he had, the grapple, flame thrower, etc.

Just finished watching both episodes, so far, so good.
Pleasantly surprised.
