Reveal hidden contents I'm glad Bo-Katan didn't have to fight Din Djarin over the dark saber and that she also got her crew and ships back. The scene with them in the Droid bar was pretty good and they too didn't want to be replaced with humans and they enjoyed working for them. Spoiler I like Bo as a character but not as a leader. I know I'm in the minority in that thinking. It was a cheap easy way to give the darksaber to her. I would have rather have Din be the new leader with Bo as a strong ally.

monkeylove Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 The recent episode's a joke. Maybe it'll show some improvement, but it looks like this show's going down.

Dick Montage Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 So I want to revisit my stance on the first episode of this season. I maintain that episode 1 was weak but now see that it’s lead somewhere. And I REALLY like where this season is going. +primortal 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1386284-the-mandalorian/page/10/#findComment-598811346 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+primortal Subscriber² Posted April 13, 2023 Subscriber² Share Posted April 13, 2023 Spoiler Grogu walking around in IG-12 was awesome, especially the 'Yes' and 'No' buttons. The Armorer for most of the season has been bothering me as she's up to something not good.

HoochieMamma Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Can someone explain to me why Grogu was knighted by Lizzo? That was the one part that really got to me, as he literally did nothing other than get fed and petted that episode.

I think Lizzo was just exerting her power to be able to do it for a cute thing that enjoyed her company, that's the way I saw it. It was clear that the society seemed to exist out of personal fulfillment and enjoyment (hence the robots being so important to do the trivial and boring work they would otherwise have to do). tl;dr she did it because she can.

Innervisions33 Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Solid final episode with a ton of action.. an enjoyable viewing experience to round out the season. I have general mixed feelings on the season as a whole, but not enough to have me down on the overall series. Still very good overall.

Jim K Global Moderator Posted April 23, 2023 Global Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2023 The season was ok. Getting sick of Grogu ... to the point I wish he had stayed with Luke to ultimately get murdered by Kylo. I understand Disney needs to sell Grogu merch. The series dialogue was predictable and poorly written, action sequences were clumsy and pacing was glacial. Sure, the arc of the Mandalorians taking back their home planet was fine...but everything else in the season....meh. Elia Kane and Dr. Pershing storyline? Anyway, hopefully season 4 gets back to the bounty hunter adventure of the week...

Disagree, I felt it absolutely contextualised so much. The New Republic is not the utopian success that they want people to believe, the remnants have been able to access levels within and that Gideon still had loyal followers. It also pushed the idea that within the remnant, there are competing factions, with vastly different agendas for the use of clone tech (Gideons dark troopers, the forthcoming Joruus plot alongside Thrawn).

hagjohn Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 S3 was the weakest season so far. With that said, I still enjoyed it. Pershing and Kane arcs were the weakest parts of S3 and took up way too much time. I enjoyed Picard too. I need to catch up on other Trek shows.
