Hey everyone and welcome to a new episode of Naughty Uptown Podcast. Naughty podcast first of all is just hosted by Two of the Dirts. I'm one of your hosts Sam. And I'm the host Paul.
And this week we are born into the event. I thought we were going to do the event. I was not doing model again. We are going into the Mandalorian this week.
The series has single-handedly saved the Star Wars universe. In my eyes. It just came out. I don't know what we expected to be that good.
So it was more special. I was the first game that I had before, even a little bit afterwards as well. But it was one of the more special. I would say one of the most special.
I was quite specific. I described it as special TV shows that has hit in a while. So just before we go into it as well, we were really excited for this one. I just wanted to stay in fact, this is the first time in a while.
It's just me and Sam. We've no special guests this week. We are finished with Halloween episodes now, so we're going to bring it back to the get-you-roots So it's lovely having kids, but it's even lovely just doing like a horse with the Mandalorian as well. As we said before, we're expecting something good because all all into it was by John Favreau who single-handedly saved the Marvel Universe.
Well, not since he gave us the Marvel Universe, shall we say. And kicking that stuff off. So to be honest, there shouldn't have been any doubts leading to this, what we were going to get with the Mandalorian and the Star Wars, but for a TV show that felt so much like my childhood, watching Star Wars, episode 4, the New Hope at the time. This was that from Lux to Feline.
I know we're going to go through it a lot during this, but the sensible, I don't even want to say a clever idea, the sensible idea of using practical effects with minimal special effects as well was the big plus for this because I think a lot of the newer Star Wars, or even when George Lucas went back in and decided to tingle with the originals and added bonus features or bonus aspects to it, it didn't need to be. And this proved everything right or what was right with the Star Wars Universe with the how they approached George? Yeah, this was a fanboy because John Favreau was a huge fanboy and living out what he wanted to see in Star Wars without essentially touching the trilogy. All the trudges.
And do you feel like I'm going to do a neat as quick as William? Apologies if you can hear fireworks, it is November 5th in the UK, which is Bonfire Knight, so there's a lot of fireworks going off behind me and people not behind Paul as well. And apologies if you watch it on YouTube, I have just messed around with my computer and my camera keeps jumping. So I'm very sorry if I come across quite jumpy.
But also everything that we talked about today is just about opinion, now we're going to need a loan and if you don't like it, absolutely fine just come and find us on Facebook and on the comments of a modern happy other conversation with the other people, what we won't have is any toxicity out of the conversation that we've had because we generally just want to keep it out of nerdism. I don't even know if that's a word. Well, we've made it a word, we'll set it enough now so. Especially with the topic that we're going into because we know what this fan base I mean it was just a small percentage of them but if you want to talk to us, we can more than have you find us on Facebook.
Yes and what means some have always said what we've talked about, in no means professing to the experts on the subject. This is just things we love. This is just things we'd like to talk about. We've watched the podcast previously, we do get things wrong, who we do get names wrong quite often.
But I can say what we're doing is coming across, we have got a genuine passion for anything that is nerdy and anything pan-binity. There's nothing more nerdy than the walls. And again, leading into that, the responses we've had so far from legacy the talks and even just the community itself has been absolutely breathtaking. So we are humble and very, very appreciative of all the support we do receive.
But yes, so let's get down to the nerdy. I was like, let's see what the basics are. So when this came around, I think the trailers came out and I got a little bit excited and was like, right, it's on Disney plus it was going to be the big big show that launched Disney plus Adelaide, like in the UK. I think that's the case.
It was it was because we had to get it another way. Disney closed in come out in 2020. But it wasn't it. Mandalorian was not on Disney plus for a first season.
Oh, I thought it was the launch type one of launch titles. Mandalorian 2 might have been Hamilton, definitely was because that came on in July. And but yeah, Mandalorian see the one we had to get other means from our computer and have them downloaded. And but yeah, I don't think we're going to do this new plus the first season anyway.
I think the Mandalorian came up in America on Disney plus when it was launched. But then we got like, I don't see it a little bit later, I believe. I can't, I just do remember the day Disney plus came out because it was incredibly happy to be in my household because we were in lockdown. And the minute it came out, like midnight, the minute I could download that app, it was straight on every device I have.
It's very happy to hear. I think what Disney plus has done well with shows like the Mandalorian and I've got one division and made it so because a lot of problems with not my problems are exactly I can't complain. I know my wife doesn't like to like to watch show after sort of episode. She likes a little bit of Braden space and it could take total sweepation again because as a child, when we had TV shows, we didn't have things like Sky or on demand or anything like that, we had a wreathe each week and on that certain time.
From this, they were fought basically because they didn't repeat it either as well. So they didn't repeat the episode until like six months or in the year down the month. They didn't have Dave back in the day where everything gets repeated by 15 times. But I kind of brought that little element back that I enjoyed, like the family time as well, like me and like God, like we got already in sats and wreaths for like, say the Fridays when it used to be on there and then watch it together and make it talk about it brought that little bit of like say family time with it, which again sounds unusual with the talk about Star Wars, but I love that aspect of Rob.
I would definitely, we would have seen like on a Friday night, we would get out of get tea ready or you know, we'd settle down to watch the Mandalorian. I've just seen that do with most cubers head curl while you were talking and I was like, but yeah, it was, but it's the same with like, I know about my mother's orchard, but not really received, but it's still each week we all, we all settle down and we sat and watched each episode. It does bring that quality time back to watching television shows and then being able to digest it, talk about it and get excited for the next week because if you did, you got really, like I couldn't make, especially season two because season one, we watched straight up about conventionally in one night because we just watched it in one night. So then season two, let's take our time.
We literally were going to do the same thing, we were going to say, oh, just wait, well wait until the end of the series and then we'll just binge it like we did the first one put as the first episode ended on the second series and the reveal. You're doing a little bit ahead there, so I'm not going to have any stuff. Yeah, but those things started to become revealed, we had us in March of each week. And but yeah, we'll go back to the first series.
And so yes, so this felt like what, as I said, the original star was, was to me, it was like quite basic, quite bleak and and save role as well, but one of the reasons I like this as well, and I'm doing different sort of matters, it had very much a feel like firefly, like a space weapon. Like, jump yardy, you get any Western inspheres, or you get where you're coming from on that one. Yeah, and the characters in this, actually, would not have interesting characters in the Star Wars universe for a while, especially in the new foot ones, there were some orchia ones and some things that were fleshed out, but again, not to the point where you thought this was brilliant. Well, these, I guess, would have been a TV show, it'd give you time for these characters to grow on you and care about them a bit more, especially the main character, actually, Mando, as he was later called by Carl Withers, but it's, it's, it's just fun, that's what I love about Star Wars, you can shut down and say it doesn't have to be over complicated.
Also, I think I want to get that with the Bob of Head, again, that's just jumping a bit far ahead, but like I said, just the opening of the first episode is it's in a cantina and these ruffians are like, say, like SPSR's, shall we say, acting themselves, and then in walks, like, say the Mandalorian, and from the get-go, you know, he's a bit of a bad, like, gonna be a bit of a bad ass, and just the way he's simply no nonsense takes, takes any shit, and for a Star Wars film, well, Star Wars, sure, that was originally for kids, and it was quite greatly violent as well, initially, open a bit where he takes them out, and then he gets the weird blue fish guy, and then when he gets back to the ship, it's the Ravenclaw, is that right? The Ravenclaw, I'm commencing right, or Ravenclaw. So, yeah, I don't, I don't want to have names up to, I'm going to say, yeah, why not? When he gets back to the ship and makes it do the whole, like, the sale of him, get all I need to use the bathroom, and then he turns around and we'll find out that he gets access to an old friend, carbonate, and we'll see that they're putting the carbonate, which then takes you back to Empire Strikes Back with Han.
It's like little nods as well, I think you said it well, actually, a fanboy has me at this show, and it, the fan service has done so well, there's so many little hints and so perfectly done, and I love how it's set, I think, again, I might be getting any timelines wrong, but I think it's around six years after Return of the Jedi, but it's definitely before, like, I can say the prequels, but I think- Yes, definitely, given the characters who come in the second season, and yes, I think you are right on the timeline, I mean, obviously, correct is for wrong, but it is definitely late for a few years afterwards, and, but yeah, John Favreau just is, is so good at storytelling without all the complicated things, I think, look how basic Iron Man's story is, and he's doing exactly the same with the Mandalorian, he's just, he's giving her a good story that's not too overcomplicated, and I really appreciate that, because my brain sometimes just cannot take this, I learned that last time you watched him doing, and I'm so glad I knew stuff about him beforehand, because if not, I would never have been able to keep up with the mass amount of history that you mentioned, and that's not what we did, you could go into this without being a few Star Wars fans. Right, exactly, yeah, and still get something from it, and not being hummed, because I think, I don't know if it was a chord, but a lot of the fans did say, like, the problem with the new Star Wars films, because it didn't branch too far away from the skywalkers to really give us anything new, and I think someone come out like, say, in the executives, I don't think it was Kathleen Turner, or one of the big, big weeks, who said, you can't branch away from the skywalkers, fans won't accept that, and fans will not, like, say, be happy about that, and the Mandalorian has proved you don't, you can have stories in the Star Wars universe that doesn't involve the skywalkers, and doesn't even look like, to a degree, and all later on we do get them, but without Jedi's as well, it's different aspects to the Star Wars lore that are quite interesting, like, the whole backstory of the Mandalorian, and the Mandalorians, like, say, how they're like, say, they're on the ground and keep themselves in, like, the secret society and stuff like that. I love that episode where he gets his new armour, but you get to see all of stuff with Mandalore, and it was always going to interest me, because I was a huge forward-batch fan, it's not with. I can't tell you why, I really couldn't tell you what my fascination is with them, because, if you just look at it from a villain point of view, he's really not in that long, but that's suit, he's so memorable, I think that's what I draw, I draw, because I'm very much drawn with drawings, and I think that I'll love the aspect of his suit, and that's potentially what I'm doing, so I was always going to love this chore, and the cast in it is one reel, and some people, some of them, have to them shock at the main, especially in the technology.
I knew that, as soon as I heard his voice, though, I was cool. It's the main age, the free after- I have spoken, this is the way, I have spoken. I think that's how we get Antidressing each other for a long time, I have spoken. But, actually, I have the balls as well, to go with, not a big name, but a named, me and character is in Pedro Pascal, as the Mandalorian, and not shown his face until when he does, that having that aspect and balls to do, because you could have had anyone, I think his voice acting in it as well, so I know he didn't wear the suit all the time, it's pointless having him there when he, I think it was a suit double at times, but the tones and stuff he used, it really gives that character a lot of grounds, and even acting within a mask, like subtle notes or subtle mannerisms, give a lot of credence to, you do end up falling in love with the character of the Mandalorian, there's a romantic element to it, not like sexual, but it's kind of like, you want to be like that, you want to be his friend and you want to help him, if that makes sense?
No, it totally makes sense, because that's what I love about programs, when characters have such a development that you get on their level, and you kind of either want to replicate that, or you know, like find it in yourself, do it, and I always say that's a really, this is why I love character based programs, I hate one more stuff, I absolutely adore the Royal Family, TV program, the Royal Family, and I love that because of it, it's, it's, without a lot of work going on, the character development has happened within it, and I go rather to get towards that, and if I'm the same with the Mandalorian, you don't get, you get to get yourself involved with a person, without seeing that being, that's a testament to how brilliant he's written, because you are wanting to get involved, that you want, I just, I absolutely love how people write like that. Yeah, I am totally agreed, like I said, as I said, we're going back to the cast, I said, I don't think many people cast wise as hitting the nail on the head as well as this previously, or even going forward, like I said, Pedro Pascal, you said Nick Norely was absolutely unrecable, you see he was just twice acting, but it was definitely his personality in Crowe. He is in there, yeah, he is definitely in the official features, like he, for all they've probably used a lot of puppeteer in around him, and I, I mean, that is definitely him in there. Yeah, even Cole, well, as I mentioned before, as like I said, the guy that was giving out like the missions grief cargo, I think he was called, he, well apologize in advance if we get names wrong, because I pronounce the issues of walking into Ereville.
Like, say he was absolutely amazing, like I know, as I said, probably he's coming into the Mandalorian, he was the big name, if he could, originally in the first season, I know he's not done anything for years, but absolutely amazing in this role, and give great gravitas to it as well, but we're all big there. But, certainly, but I'm actually just, his old again, talk about mannerisms like the Mundo, I can hear his tone and stuff, and how he gives like the missions, and I can say, even when the given the missions, like a little track and bacon thing that's going off, and you find out they have given, that's like, in the first episode, he's going to meet what was known as that then, was Bieri Yoda. He was, that's like, nobody else knew what he's named was, and that's the reason why I think we had to watch him straight away, because that was getting ruined. True, and again, yeah, like I said, when I first watched that first episode, I hadn't had it spoiled, so when he went in, I didn't know what the cargo was going to be, and when you saw that open up, I was like, what the fuck?
I was getting, I needed to know what's going to happen, I needed to know that information, and I said that was probably the biggest surprise I've had in the style I was experienced since Rogue One, and again, Rogue One wasn't really that surprising, you knew what the end of him was going to be, just didn't know how beautiful the film was going to be. Lovely way to put it, that was absolutely fun, and you knew how Rogue One was going to end, you just didn't expect the beauty that came out of it, and all into the cast now, not going to go into the woman's personal, like, but doing it right on his car or doing, I generally love the car or car or doing everything we really do, and I thought, the second season, she was very much overshadowed by other actresses who were much better than her, but in the first season when it was her, I generally like, I vibe, I like what you brought at the show. You should have been the Disney princess, but people could have locked up too, but again, we'll not go into that. As well, like, moving on quite slightly away from her, one character, I wanted to think he hasn't got the biggest role, but I think he just has one of the biggest impacts in the first season, he's a droid, Tiger Whiting, he has IG 11, like, starting out as a serial, not to say, trying to think about any hunter, and turn by the end of the season, turning into a nanny droid, which, Yes, right.
Yes, droid, are you okay with that? I mean, if I went down the runway. Oh, dear, but yes, I think as one of the standards, like, I know the star wars, like, the droids are always, like, I'm all about the droids, but I always do, I have a bit of a standard, but he was one of the better ones, and you could tell by his accent, and even like, see the sense of humor and stuff, and it as well, like, when they get cornered, it's no escape, I've got to press the self-destruct, and you can see the mandos getting stressed out, and they're all, fuck off, we're not going to go. It's just, it's Tiger YT's dry sense of humor, but what is really special about the first season, and even the second season that they've continued on, every episode is directed by a different director.
Yeah, and he doesn't feel that way as well, he doesn't feel that way. It does not, it only felt like that in the second season, and I'll get to it later, when when one episode was very much bitten at the director, who did it, and but on this one, you could not tell the different, and I looked at the fact that had different styles, and they had different styles, how it was directed, and she was phenomenal. I obviously directed an episode and then stayed on to what was going on, then, I did 11. I did 11, yeah.
It was a good one. It was a good one. It was a good one. It was a good one.
It was a good one. It was a good one. I know you had something to do with the writing, because I know you had, like, he was like, yeah. Definitely had something to do with the writing, because you would not have the second season, as it is, if the learning wasn't involved in it.
Yeah, but yeah, I love the fact that it was a brilliant series on Disney Close of the Megan of Mandalorian and the author of each episode with every different director, the joint director of the second series, which I very much appreciated, and the literally just did, this is overall, and then the last episode, and that was so special. But to have, I think there was at least two female directors, so it wasn't just all male-centric, it was different. It was phenomenal to see them work that way, and John Favreau to trust in that, and imagine this would have meant a lot. I still think he was very hands-on.
I think he's going to be very hands-on with the Star Wars universe going forward. I think overall, yeah, the will have to lean on him. I think other people will have to lick all the reins into say, right, John Favreau, do what the fuck you want, that's the name I was trying to name off before, yes. Thanks, yeah.
But again, with any type of TV show, it kind of lives or died by the bad guys as well. So the villains in the Mandalorian, especially they can see the start-off with the guy, Werner Herzog, who played the client, the star-torn who gives like, say, like, say, Mando or the mission, he's the creepiest fucker in the state. I wanted to see the baby. I wanted to show me the baby.
Show me the baby. I said, you kept very natty. I'm not in the very natty, it vibes. That's the idea of the experiment.
It's very much that. But nothing beats, not getting him. Yes. He looks, I mean, the actor, Gio Carlo S.
As for you, too. He's from Gus from Breaking Bad. The minute that guy does that guy, immediately, with the minute you see him fall uniform, like, up on, he was, he was made to be a star wars villain. Like, that's his purpose.
Either that'll start track. Yeah, it's even start track, going to. I think not on the same level, but he's been the best villain in the star wars universe since I would say Vader. Like, he's not come close that level.
He was definitely back in Darth Maul and like, say, and everyone that followed, even Kramtugo, Christopher Lee, here wasn't, wasn't a mighty show, you see. But like, say, I'm off getting an exit, there was a bit of realism towards it as well. And just the fear, just the actual, like, say, when he starts blasting the town at the end of like, season one. And like, without like, with, like, sharing a band, a band of any type of like, like, worry about his own men or people that I know, again, I don't know if how many of these stormtrobes would be clones now.
I think there would be people that's, that's, like, by this time, the clone element would have probably not been as, well. Something that I generally don't know, because obviously I'm only halfway through the clone wars and then you've got the bad fashion, I don't know why that follows into it, but if you're just loving it from movies to TV and you're on the nation side of it, I generally don't know if the clones would be still in use. Yeah. But he commands such a presence without very much doing very little.
They just started, they didn't even know it on like, breaking bad. He was so soft, he's hoping, was so fucking sinister. At the same time, and he brought that foot, oh shit, further. I just, I can't get enough of that man.
I hug him in the middle figure, didn't I? Well, I like about it. Yeah. What I like about the first season as well, it did a lot of, so we see had normal TV tropes, a lot of the stories, not like, say, worse than the Lord, sorry, that kind of have like elements that led into the biggest picture books, actually some of the adventures and some of the things that they found themselves in or on were, like, they had the episode where they were going to get double cross went on and on and down the corner is trying to get his first name on the board and make sure that kind of like, double cross and element there.
They're on the whole prison heist with Bill Mo, Bill Mo, is it the comedian? Yeah, that's the second season. Not Bill Mo's in the second season, that's where he's, like, he's in the first season where the all, yeah. Nice.
I really want that one again. It's the episode six, I believe. It's where they're going to bring into the ship and to get the guy with the things out. Oh my god, yes, of course.
It's the worst. Honestly, there's only one great that I have. The woman who pleads the one with the on she is, she's named Tom in Harry Potter. She's also a fan of the bronze.
Honestly, just wanted that. I wanted to try the ball in any fashion whatsoever. Oh my god, after that episode, just compliment back to us. He also has one of the greatest comedians that we have, Moss from the Anticrowd.
He was a voice actor in that as well. Yeah, Richard. Richard, I have to worry. I have to worry.
Richard, I have to worry. Richard, I have to worry. Yes, that episode is just comforting back to us now because of how annoying she was. And at brother, it was just as, is not, was it a part of our brother?
Um, I think it was, to be fair, it's far across worlds, or could have been together. So, there's no judgment in the Star Wars universe. So, after we found Lucas, Lucas, he says this all. That's true.
And but he didn't know about it. He didn't know. That's all I've been talking about. I know, I don't know.
He says to you, sick fuck. It's the sick son of a bitch. Oh my god. And yes, that episode was phenomenal.
The prison brigade, when I told you for a lot of that. And because I only, it was a bad series, it was the last episode where I finally went. This is something, like, fucking special. See where I got me, I thought this was going to be something brilliant.
Is the escape from when he goes back for the child. After he gets, when he takes the child back and he decides he's not going to leave him there. And like I said, it's a little element that, playing here as well, that, like, we play as a little ball dial and stuff. And you can see them playing together.
And he goes back in, get the child and called the wellers. And all the people say, well, can't let you take, you break the, the court of the guilds. And then all the other Mandalorians come out and help them escape. But like, blow on their cover.
That, that was me when I had full on fucking goosebumps, because that was a battle scene that we haven't seen in, like I said, the Star Wars universe, like, to that degree. If you're not watching Clone Wars, then you're not seeing the full power of Mandalore. And like, there's, you know, what their suits can actually do. And they just see it was absolutely, honestly, they talk about it.
I'm quite glad I didn't go back and like, reboot it. I'm kind of liking the memories floating back into me head right now. Like, I'm thinking of that, I'm just thinking of that episode, where they're all calm out of nowhere. And it just showed, it showed up brotherhood.
And with this as well, sorry, I've got you off this thing. What my biggest great with American TV shows is, they give you 24 episodes and half of them episodes of Philip. And you get 19 seasons and it tells the same story over and over and just the same things happen with this. You just relive in Supernatural right there.
Potentially, I'm not Disney, I still love it. I'm still already watching it now, but I'll always say it sort of ended a lot soon, but sorry, Charlotte. But yes, for this, it was eight episodes of season. And it was just perfectly timed, like the time in the episodes as well.
It didn't feel like a chore. Everything felt like, say, natural and excellent at time. And it gave the space, there was quiet episodes, there was action packed episodes to give you time to build up. I think the only episode where, again, in the first season, I didn't give up, but it was like, this is getting bored and on too much of a trope was the one where, as I said, Karidom came in which, where the God, that planet, and the hiding, and the outside and the woods, and he teaches the village how to fight.
I was like, oh, God, this is getting too much, too much. I go, like I said, a TV show, it's just going to happen every week, where the God, where a different thing. I'm glad they didn't see it. Sorry.
No, I'm just going to say it, and the God, and the village and the solid all out and everything's, they can work on their own without his health and then he moves on. The next one I talked about, you got to be coming on with that. That was my worry, but again, I'm glad that didn't do that. I was kind of like a one-off thing.
As soon as they got back under the, like, say, him protecting, as a new then was the child, or what people used to all shit crazy when they called him Baby Yoda. I still think it's funny. He is like, say a baby, I just wish I'm, because did we ever find out what kind of what kind of type of animal Yoda was? Oh, I can't remember.
I know that there is, oh, gosh, that's obviously good. I don't think it was ever said, I think it was in some of the books or in the law, but again, it could be, yeah, because I think the Christmas special, that they not have other members of each family in it as well. Potentially, yes. Speaking of, like, it is coming up soon.
Certainly, but as a first season, you always want to see that climax. I think it ends well the first season as well. It doesn't give you too much information. You get the coming together episode where the car is in returns to help them, and you see it called whether this is a character kind of flip, obviously, it's going to be bad, but he turns out to be good and does a really good turn.
And then we'll get the pure badass of him, Gideon, Tony Gorn, crazy, and you get these new, like, say Stormtroopers with higher firepower and flamethrowers. And then we'll get the turn of the money box who has a brilliant ending. And then, like I say, when he goes in the law, I don't know why he's a fucking law, but again, I absolutely fucking love it. Why not?
Why not? Because he was an absolute people. He did. What are you going to do?
And I remember Paul leaves my eyes out. I mean, droids aren't a constant enough family theme. I cry every time that especially you go on up on the eyes out, absolutely go on the eyes out. He's a K2S or I also see a K2S 9, and I don't know why.
But the one from the solo as well, absolutely love that road. But not as much as I do alone. My type of just brought such an element to it that you could not help but fall in love with, especially as a nanny thought. Yes.
When we're in that sacrifice. It was wonderful. But he did it for the child. I can say that's what he was programmed to do and he did it well.
But then, like I said, he thought that was going to be again, not just the only Tia Jurga in that episode. When then Mando gets his wings and he gets the jet, jet partner comes worthy to fly and he goes after Muscovians, like I said, a little ship and they have the little fight on there as well, which again, goes all classic Star Wars, like bad afternoon, which is absolutely like, say, breathtaking to watch and don't like, say, well, it's not done cheesily at all. That's one thing I would say this TV show is done. It gives fun service, but there's a savious life of cheese, which could easily be done, especially with the tones and with the aspects of it as well.
Yeah. It reminds me a lot of how Rogue One was done. Because if you look, it's not so much the new ones, but obviously pre-goals, even though they're such a piece of tone to them, where as Rogue One and the Mandalorian have the same feel. You get set pieces that don't look cartoonish.
You have colors that look realistic and be youthful. And it was the same with Mandalorian. You feel like you could just walk into it and it would be real, whereas sometimes on the film, I'm kind of like, but that's the garbage. I said this element in the first season as well, that would happen even touching the RBC fan was amazing, bringing back the Jaws and then a little cons...
Sorry. Oh, we're going to see them! We're going to see them! We're going to see them on the podcast!
Yeah, where the act is in there. I'm watching now. That's how the made us feel, like, get you're so angry, just because the act is like little shits. And it's just well done.
And how he was getting the best of them and the abatement, the way they did and how they took his ship upon you, just like, the fuckers. And I'm like, waving like, say, bringing back like, like, the sand people. Yes. And here in the aspiration tones as well, but that was the second season when they brought in.
But I can say that's all the different aspects of like Star Wars lore that they kind of touched on, but came different as well. And it's like he was giving permission to, you know, you can touch some things with it. You don't, it didn't all have to be new, but allowed to give in to, you know, the original trilogy and look from there and find things in there. And that's massive in the last episode, which I'll get into when we talk about the last episode, so it goes through season two.
But it's like, you know, you can overdo it, make it a little bit in pieces here. And they did to make you remember where you are and what you're watching. Yeah. And it's like, say, brought in again, time of a great act as and stuff.
And the first season when he got like, as in one episode, we'll got more over in the second season was Fennec. Ming-Gang Wen, hope I pronounced that white. She absolutely breathtaking. I can say anything that she did in the Mandalorian.
And all in the first season, at the end of that, sort of you think she's being left to dead, but we'll find out what happens in the second season. That woman crosses nerd, nerdism, like nobody else. She's in Star Wars. She's a Disney princess.
She was in Marvel, like, and the woman is in her 50s and can move the way that she does. She is absolutely unreal. She is a beautiful woman. And Fennec is just such a, she was from the second she was on screen.
She was instantly interested. Yes. And I think that the realized that after the thing and thought we can't let this one go type thing. That's why I think she played a bigger role in the second season.
And again, the big reveal at the end of the first season was the Dark Sea Ever. And the fact that most of you have, yeah. And you see them on the top of the ship with the Black Sea Ever. And or like I didn't get it.
I didn't get the back. They obviously didn't make something, but it didn't make how far. But now I'm in Clone Wars, I forget why it's so important. And it does help to know when you go into the second series and why it's so important to go over time.
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So my expectations for the first season was blown away.
I didn't expect it to come as much as it did. Like I said, it had so many beats to the original Star Wars. Lain in the second season, I was a little bit apprehensive because I was thinking, how is it going to top what it's doing? Because if you talk about fan service, that's what the second season of the Mandalorian is pure and symbol each episode.
It's something different and something that you will win for at the same time. And again, I just want to see before we move on to the second season, I was absolutely heartbroken as well with cool dying and the way you did, trying to get back to the ship with the child. And you don't see him die, you just see him lying down the floor and I can see that was such a, to have the balls to kill off a character like that as well. Because he had legs, he could have and he had a story as well where he was in, he was a slave to the Federation and he bought himself out.
And that was his choice to make it to live the way he did, decided at the end and like so he didn't have to get involved. So that was even- He was quite used to walked away from them, but that was even why it was so heartbreaking to lose in the way we did. Yeah, he was a special character and I was do we are broken when he was, when he wasn't going to be in the second one and then was seen with the scenario as well as sort, got everyone going to see it. But with the second series, I didn't expect what we got.
Because again, I was very much, I could not see where this was going. And I was happy about that. It didn't feel predictable. Yeah.
I couldn't see it while this is where we're going to lead into because I generally didn't know. No. The relationship between- Now we know his name is Rogu and Mondo was one of the most beautifully written relationships in television for me. Yeah.
You don't see a lot of it in the first series until- Because he just, it's just a package to him to start with and then a connection starts to build, but it's not really there until in the second series. And he walks around with a bit of pouch on his side, like, and he's poorly happy with that. And it's just, I love that relationship so much. And just the father's son, Elis, as well.
Yeah. It definitely grew into that in the second season. But like I said, it was a surprise after surprise. I know there was always rumors and stuff that we were going to get certain things.
Bringing them characters like Rose and Edorsen as a shorter was absolutely perfect. As a shorter casting and even the makeup and everything done was absolutely amazing. No, no, no. Yeah.
I know a lot of people were being waiting for a long time to see a live action as a shorter as well. And that was the perfect episode for us to give us his name as well. Wasn't rushed. And again, next to the actors that was involved in that episode, we'll have to fucking Michael Bean as well.
Oh my god, I'm not ever so much. If we jump into that episode, my god. So, Sova Tana is like one of my favorite characters in Cone Wars. I absolutely love her.
I'm just trying to say one of that. That's not a lot of stuff somewhere. But I actually love her. I want to talk to her as well.
I can't think who, you know, she is a massive, massive nerd. She created the brand, her universe, which has a female, like nerds, not just a big, you know, you ship your teacher, and your jeans, nerds go into like dress elements. And she does a sort of a sort of Tuesday. Like she's totally, totally heavily involved with the character, has been from day one and still is today.
And a lot of people were very much dependent, but like kind of why wouldn't we use actually X- Or to be the actress, to do it in the live action, given, you know, my skittest with her, but at the same time, I do see where you're coming from and she congratulated Rosario. It was just beautiful. Yeah. But I guess I get it.
But a sort of older wouldn't work with Ashley, how she looks. Ashley is a very petite blonde hair. A sort of rose to be incredibly tall. And muscular, like very almost like as in a gal.
I can only describe it. I can't gal the dog kind of like that. Like that's how I would have pictured that. And that's just not Ashley at all.
And it's a shame because it would have been lovely as a tribute. You know, it's just something but Ashley, like she's been this horrific so long and she put a whole life in the way. And then not to be picked with a live action. But that's the thing.
Oh, because voice actors, I know in terms of, you might not always be, you might have the right voice, but you've got to look the way as well. So I'm always understanding. But Rosario and not going to get out of the park. 100%.
I have watched a million times. Because it's a very samurai fail as well. It's not a very Western fail. It's very Asian cinema that one.
This one was directed by, and this is the director who I was referring to earlier, is Robert Rodriguez. You can feel Robert Rodriguez right the way through that episode. Because it does have, there is a bit Western to it, the scene between Mabel Bean and Mando and the very ready to draw. But then to the other side, you've got Bill going on with the Lucy Luvite ready to take place.
And which was born, Borkin, real, the whole episode. From start to finish was Amira's. And I am so glad that it's all got decided, sent them on their way. She didn't take them.
Her journey is leading her to. Yeah, something. Ron. Yes.
Sorry, I'll have to use the answer right there. No, I think that's what the thing with the Mandalorian 2, season 2 give us a lot of ways and a lot of different, more stories shall we say that we're going to get from the Star Wars universe? And also as well, the starting point absolutely brilliant done the way they led into the first episode with actually Timothy Dalton as character. Is it Timothy?
Timothy, Timothy, that's one. Timothy, Timothy, Oliver. Timothy Dalton. That's going to be a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a.
Yeah, it's going to be interesting. I just call him Betty Cordray. But you can also call him Mickey everyone from Spring 2. But it's a hands character was done so well.
Like the teas that they gave us at the start with the, well as soon as you saw that suit, you were like fuck me. And Bob and I didn't turn out to be Bob and I was like, oh, it's Bob is really dead. And again, we find out later that he wasn't. But it's funny enough we were talking about before we started, you've seen the movie doon.
This episode was kind of like the movie doon in a little bit with the sandworm and the pearl of the dragon and stuff like that. And that again was done so well. Like the sand people and then Mando breach in peace. Again, going into town and saving them, but doing it away where it didn't feel like forced or cheesy.
And I love the element where it was like, you've got to give us that suit back. You do not belong to that suit. I have to take it. And I don't think we've seen the end of, like I said, Timothy, Timothy, Arthur and Scouta, because I think room is going to be in Google Boba.
I hope so. I really hope so. But I love the fact that you did hand it over. But I also love, is it obviously we do get all the best back.
The teas as well at the end of the episode. And you see the actor who played him in the prequels as well. So he's that. Also voiced the coins in the core mowers.
Like he's been in Star Wars for a very long time. And I am so happy in my little nerd art that he was cast as well. And then he's getting these cool and pop and sing with that. But I mean that is a payoff as a factor.
Like that's the payoff. You know, you put the work in like he's even bad. That he's done core whores and there's a lot of voices in there to do. Because he was all.
And he's also got a Moana. But I just absolutely love the fact that you've seen what really got me all with the suit. The Chinese suit. I was like, how has he managed to do that?
So quickly. Well come to that in a second. Because I can say there's so many other elements I would have thought before we get to like the really interesting parts. And the big surprises that I'd say.
But again, like I say with the season, like the fan service and the custom was done perfectly. The only thing I've made is very uncomfortable as well. Was the one where the travel from when we get introduced to more book kind of character. I think it's the second episode of the day.
Where they're taking the frog creatures across the universe. I've never felt pressure like it like intensity before. Yeah, and baby, you already decided that we wanted to eat the eggs. And I was like, no, that's not quite right.
That's the one's children. So please, please stop that. And then like I said, that ice spider things was generally fair inducing nightmare fuels that brought elements of like say what like the road squadens doing now. Like I said, the Rebel Alliance police in the universe, which was quite an interesting take.
Again, we're brought back into doing a caradunist character, how she's basically made herself legit and didn't care of the planet. Which was getting. I think that's what the badge of the offer towards. But again, interesting character development, bringing elements there that you needed.
But that was only episode that maybe felt uncomfortable when baby Yoda was keeping, I'm sorry, Grog was keeping like say the frog's eggs. I was like, oh, I'd stop that. Especially when you saw them hatching at the end, when they were together and baby Yoda's like, turn his head side was like, I still want to fucking eat it. But no, I'm not.
I thought what eat you when he's eating the bloom, my hero. He was just so adorable. I couldn't get there in episodes that I was just doing an hour and and like every time I walked past him in my bedroom, I always thought, you go, oh, you're so cute. Like I just couldn't get all of the level of cuteness.
Like if you've made us want to cry, everything was on the script. It was getting so optimistic of not the meat. It was getting very exhausting for him because it was every two minutes. I was like, oh, my God.
I want to put you outside. It came back very close. Again, fanservice, I think, Kyren, Katie, sack off as Boba can after she voiced her in the, was it the Rebels or the Clone Wars? It was, I think it was, I think it was the Clone Wars and Rebels.
And this is the argument that people had all the actually acting is because Katie sack off. But Katie is a physical action actress. Yeah, I wouldn't fucking mess with that. No.
But she was in battle style, but I think it was actually. Yeah. She's done a lot of sci-fi. Yeah, she's done a lot of TV shows and stuff.
This is our bread and butter. This is like what she does. So to have her being in Volketown completely makes sense. It was dodgy in the flash.
I wasn't sure about her accent in the flash. I couldn't, I stopped watching that for that. That was it. See, you know, you were talking earlier about the American series where they have like 20 odd million episodes.
And the majority of them are the flash got like that for us. Oh, it's still right. Yeah. But yes, and we've got like, say the wonderful Sasha Banks as one of them as well.
It was done perfect casting. Love that girl. I thought she, I love the fact when the ring rest was in. And we don't want all reviews the rest of the movies where you get one.
Yeah. And she did it to Bob, she did it to Boba Fett in the bar when they get into the little, you know, Sandoff type. Yeah. And she only in action like a D.D.T or something like that.
I think I've got a lot of like. It's just like a Herrick-A-Ronat I think. But yeah, it's like, it was so well put together and stuff. I had like a little bit of action and like the fight scenes.
But again, just because the know of Boba's back back history and stuff like that. The know, like, I said that everyone's not very trusted over them and stuff. But even the standalone episodes, there's aspects to like certain, certain ones that's absolutely brilliant. Like one of the ones that breaks me.
That was the first time I see I proper sniffles was the one with a bit of the return of Bill Ber. When the need, because when the need to find the information to get where, like Sandoff dropped ahead here. It was one of my favorite episodes where they're having to break into like, say this for like, like, bonger type thing where they're to basically find the information where there will be, Muscovian ship was going to be and that was where Grogu was going to be. And like I said, the share will and determination of Mondo to get in where he changes out of his outfits into like, said the general suit and the going into, like say, the quarters where the need to excanis face to basically to do identification.
And you see him for the first time, take the mask off in front of people and stuff and you see the pin that he did, but he's like, right, I've got to deal with the Grogon, Bill Mer's carrying me a field. He knows how much that meant to do that. And he was like, look, I'm not telling anyone. Nobody needs to know that this happened.
And his reaction as well, when he's sitting with that, makes it like the Admiral who's played by the creepy guy of Game of Thrones and he was in Piggy Blinders as well. I'm sure he played one of the ice, quick, the ice kings or something else. Oh my god, yeah, he did. It was not the final.
And it was the late king. He cleared him in like series three or five. It wasn't the last making that we got. No, yes, it was him.
Yeah. And like I said, just turn on new that he gives the order to kill make his friends, his family. And he knew he wasn't going to let it lie. And he knows it was pretty much causing them to kind of pretty much die as they did this.
And he just turns out he shoots them and you give yourself a little, you punch the egg, it's fucking well done. And the action scene to get out there, it's like a problem of the heist thing. It's done amazingly well to the point where I was like, this episode I was in tears. Yeah, yeah, totally.
I think I might get snippled because it was a lot of revelation in there and a lot of the road as well. And the fact that my daughter would be filming off. Yeah. That was, that was, they passed all that happened in that episode.
That would have been enough, but it wasn't. Yeah. It was so, it just again, develops in more than what you think you already know. Like there's so many like layers to them.
Like that's just really good writing. Like if I take him, Daryl Dixon from Walk and Dead is an example. You've got, you've got Daryl Dixon, you get to know him throughout the first few series and then you've got an idea of who he is. And it's not being until the new writer is coming under the last few seasons that you just get another level that added on top of them that makes them even more special.
And that's what they did in Mandalorian. They just add new levels to them to make them just that little bit more interesting, special, relatable, and someone you can root for. Yeah. Oh, 100%, 100% agree.
But it was done away that was, because you only got the eight episodes a series, it's exploding so badly. Yeah. And it's not like a forced tool. That was the word I was going to use.
Like say there's nothing in the Mandalorian that feels forced or like thrown down your throat, which we do get in different concepts and different aspects. Even the aspect when, like say Boba Fett gets his outfit back, fuck me, that was absolutely brilliant. And when you see Boba in full flight, and when he finally gets to the arm, when you see them, that machines are from the cold now are the robots, the other special name, but like I said, they were like death robots or something like that. The take off a grogo after he sent the message for a Jedi to come and help him.
But saying Boba, getting to the outfit and just go right, fuck you's all in your same tortly taking people down. Fuck me, Roberts. How do you expect to say me, Roberts, in a stop? You do not have all that episode was, that episode of So Intense when Grogo is on the rock, because the one that's going to happen there and then, yeah, like, oh, it's so much going to come now.
I love what we're waiting for. But then again, because we want to lead onto it now, that's when the guests and start. That's when we start, I think, because we're taught about timelines and saying, which Jedi are still out there? And then, yeah, so the final episode is the rescue.
I've watched it repeatedly. I've watched the episode and for the first time after it originally aired, and it still brought me hard. And I've seen people's reactions to it, because I'm watching people's reactions to programs, especially when you know there's a big climax going to happen to me, like, you want to relive what you felt when you watched it. Yeah.
The guests and who was it going to be? A lot of people, and I never got this, because not everyone played video game, they were almost saying I was going to be cut, that's just, and it was a big room I heard, I think, a lot of it is forward. And it would make sense, for Kyle's story, it totally makes sense, but you can't show the character in from a video game, that not everyone was played. That doesn't have an impact.
That doesn't have what they were looking for. But yeah, the episode was just, again, I guess I guess one was thinking about it, just from the start to the end, because you get here, like, slave one doing slave one, being fucking like a badass at the start. Then you get the whole, again, I'll repeat back to what I think I said during the Marvel podcast, you get the woman power, but not donning away where it's to run down your neck. Like the women, like, say, Boaktan, Sasha Bancis character, and Karadun, and Fenwick going fucking, taking all of the shit and just being right, doing it in a skillfully where it's not yet.
This is women doing it, but again, in sci-fi, yeah, in a generic way, which was breathtaking to watch, and again, you might be talking about it over here, because it is emotional where this episode plays out, and then you get Mandor who's fighting against, like, Darth, through, sorry, and you're thinking, oh, these are fucking terrifying, the Brit and the shut down, and Mandor's barely keeping it together. And he passed the button, Alok, you're at all. See if and now. If you will, if you were paying cause attention, you could see that they will come back.
Yeah, back on them, they will come back, he was just buying time, but to see the damage that they could do to him, even though the damage only collapsed, I hope you can't even notice what was happening, was he was just getting pushed into the wall. Yeah, that was, like the wall was caving in, that was actually proven. Yeah. But then, sorry.
Not like, I'm just going to help you to meet in the scene with Grogu, and this is where the team has started to meet. Not quite yet. Like, say, I got the X8 as well, is when the Van Delorean spear came out, and you get the, like, say, the sea of a fight, and you notice that he doesn't cut through, and like, like, say, and then he takes the, like, like, say, the Darth's sea of a by force. And, but it's the scene where he sees Tom and, he's got the black saber of old brogos.
Oh, yes. Yeah. Like, even when he turns the saber off, he can't trust this motherfucker, he's going to do something. And that's where the team has started.
It was his little face, when he was sitting down, and he's got his little hand cuffs on. That's it. It gets so happy when he stays mondo as well, and he thinks. I was just like, the law of, and then that, everybody, like, as much as a small bank, it's still a big one.
Yes. I don't, if nobody knows the history of the black saber, or if you have to disarm the person who had it, and I didn't realize that at the time, because I wasn't heavily hit the phone boys when I was watching it. So I'm glad he explained it later on. Yeah.
But, like, that's going to be leading into where I think season three, potentially is going to go to, but then, like, see, you get them all in that room, like, say, the techno of the ship, Moscovians defeated, and you see the doctorate was coming back, and you think, oh, shit, the barricade themselves in, and all you hear is, oh, got to go, girl. Yeah, I know that. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
So you see all the, like, that aspect coming up in, you think, right, what's going to happen? Who's coming to save the day? Someone's coming to save the day, and the fact that you see, you see Grobby reaction before, you see the X-Wing flying value. That was a sign that this is what we've been waiting for.
This is the moment. And that's the point as well, because you see, I just said, the X-Wing comes by and you go, Zara, because I read five. Fuck, that's not happening. Yeah.
And you start building the X-Sine, you think, because, because then, you don't have to allow yourself to believe that it's going to, until you see his saber go green, and you're like, pulling back and shit. Yeah. And then, like I said, you see the hood going on the ship, and then you see everything going on, and then you see the fear and mosquito as well. And he's like, it's a Jedi, you see him, he takes the gun, you think he's going to shoot, he tries to kill himself.
So, because, because at the time, like I said, Jedi's were feared, like they didn't know what the reaction was going to be. And do we get a fucking theatre moment or not? Because we get a theatre moment. That was absolutely one of the best choreographs ever, and the fact that he's got it, just got it so perfectly like, he's getting rolled on.
Like that was probably one of the most exciting parts of Roblorn, apart from how you'd do this. But that excitin' wise, that is, and then the chorechan, when he's talking just about the whole, oh my gosh. That was always the element, but Luke, because he does have the element of the dark side in him. And as he said, he has a balance, he has a balance of the force.
He can use both sides, but he's so balanced, he's not going to go either. Yeah, but that's when you see, you like, save the glove, and you think, because that was like the touching point there, because it was like, it's a Jedi, we're not a Jedi, it's in that. Then you see, it's got one black glove, it kind of be from me. Then all you see is a light, it's a black and white, and then you see it green, and you think, it's Luke's diva, and honestly, I lost my shit.
I cried, like ugly cries, because I was that happy to see it. And then, again, I know the special effects did get a lot of shit, but I still think it was doing well, and that element, oh no, I'm sorry. And that element, using Mark Hammel's actual voice as well. Um, that's talking about using Mark Hammel's voice, that is Mark Hammel.
And that is Mark Hammel, and the Jirna Young actor, everyone thought it was Sebastian Stan. Because of the pictures, everyone was like, oh my god, it's Sebastian Stan, it wasn't, it was genuinely Mark Hammel standing behind her. And it was another actor that was used, who looked, I mean, it's spooky when you see how much he looked, like young Mark Hammel when he's been in his early twenties, and they used the two of them, and especially the movement, because they needed someone hit in the exact height for his twenties, and when he's standing still in Torp and it's all Mark Hammel. But the way that they did it, is because they knew, they knew, they knew that the shit that came from Norv1, they understood that, but they really had to, had to try, and they trapped a guy in a room who does all of this, and it was a deep pick, and he brought around the deep pick to every single image that belongs to Mark Hammel.
He put it more computer to create the base that you get, and it is all real. When you see the work, but they put it into it, you can't see it, so that's a shit job, because it's a lot of work, and it's something that I think needs to be tried, and I was hyping with the way they did it at Norv1, because you've got to take risks. Yeah. You've got to.
And I know it sounds cheesy, I've got to excite when I saw Lexia Luke, and I've gone, it's really Luke. But a little bit inside who's got my excitement? Artio popped up. This is, so if you watch the last episode, John Favreau, this explains how much of a fanboy John Favreau is.
So when they do an episode, the, they were very conscious on leaks, like really conscious that this was going to leak out, and they did not want this leaking out. So what they did was they created a diversion, and they created, they did it with a new pluckoon, who was my favorite tonight, and to be the one who comes and gets rogu, the date, septhesis, masks, closed masks, did all that, did concept art, made sure that if anyone was going to get anything, that's what it was going to be. And then, Dave Poloni, you know, obviously, is part of it all, when they were talking about the fact that you're going to have Luke as the Jedi who comes, do you want to use artio? And John Favreau was like, I didn't realize that was an option.
I didn't, like, you're saying like, I didn't think that was an option, he went, you've got Luke, you can use artio. So when they're filming it, John Favreau has to go and stand, when Artio comes behind him, has to go and stand in a corner, because he's crying his eyes out, because his child's worth evil, is standing right in front of him, and it's not Mark Hanfalf, it's not Luke Coruaga, it's Artio too too. And he went, that was, he says, I don't cry, don't get emotional, but that talkers is a human thing, and it's such a lovely story, the making of it, it's just four fascinating, really fascinating. Oh yeah, and I say, and Groku's and Artio's interaction was sort like little and but, it was done so well, it was so artio as well.
The fact that it was hard, it was hard, it was hard, it was hard, it was hard, it was hard, it was hard, and said when it was finished, he'd never seen me cry so much before at a TV series, for this book, it was because he was the believe in that part of some connection was definitely like, it was cemented, and he was going to be relieving it, he takes his helmet off, he sees his face, and put the saving part of it all is when Artio comes round, he's in good hands, he's always got a friend, and he's going to be okay, and like, it made me feel better known that Groku's got Artio. Yeah, it's obviously, doesn't get annoyed by S3, it's a C3 view. He's talking about that, he's talking about Artio here, and is a human level absolutely Groku's, it's a good guy, it's a good guy, we didn't want, but it was a lean ball of the story, it would have been completely completely put to disservice to us as audiences, if he didn't complete his mission, yeah, and the way that, yeah, and the way that I said that goodbye was not perfect, and the fact that Groku wanted to see his face, just like, raise his hand up and touch it as well, you knew, and how much it commenced, when he took that mask off, and he couldn't hesitate, he couldn't hesitate, he just came straight off, and it was just, it's a beautiful scene that, I don't, I don't think I'll be able to watch, like, I've probably been able to watch the series, because I know where it's leading up to, and I can't, I did it the other day, and just to see if I was over it, and I'm not over it. No, I'm not okay.
I'm not okay. This is not true, but yeah, like, yeah, that's how you do, again, a surprise, but doing it in a way where it's, it's, it's, it's not just shoving something in, for the hell of it, it meant something, and it will mean something, like, anyone who revisits that or watches that for the first time, and being introduced to Star Wars, like, as we were as kids, like, as we were the right way and show him that first, it'll mean just as much. And I think this will hit a level of children, but I don't think we would, as fans expect, because of Grogo. Like, I'm not one, I always got to know your company to bring out little big, like, little characters, my company, to bring out little characters, and everyone says, ah, he, he, he, he, and everyone mentioned that, that I'll come now, Grogo, was exactly the same.
And I absolutely, well, we jumped on board, like, seriously jumped on board. I, I got it, like, I totally got it, and like, I wanted everything and anything to do with this little tiny, too creature, even though, not every channel will have some but the use of my bedroom is any form to have a little bear of him but I just I totally get it like my friends little girl is socially obsessed yeah you know that it's got obsessed with Star Wars. I'd say it's gonna be like to the end of it's for a lot of your nerds which is again is what we want to be and I do believe like say if we're gonna like say lead none to where we think the franchises and the goal with the Mandalorian like saying not just talking about because I say the book of all this is supposed to be the next thing we're gonna get the OSORGIS series I don't know if rebels are still gonna get me I don't know like say what's happening with that but where my love story goes now I think it's gonna be I do think Kim and Groggo will cross paths in the future but I think we'll want to say that to maybe season four season five. I think I think it'd be end-to-point because it's not gonna be an end point John Fabro is not that he knows he knows when he knows it's a good series length without getting people you know like the obvious went on the next amount of series and it did you know you need a point of where you have to stop and I think John Fabro will know that point and I think that's when you'll see them come together again and for the next season I think it's just gonna be as basic as the new mission but I think it's still gonna lead into like the conflict's gonna be there between Bobatine and Mandor and I think that's gonna be the one that leads into maybe the end of season three or as you said there'll be missions to go about like say there's a lot of galaxy to go about and to be honest it'll probably be him coming to terms with the loss of Groggo.
There's gonna be a lot of grief in there like regardless I know he's still like but he's not with him maybe he had something and so yeah he's gonna be dealing with the grief that Groggo's gone and like what do you do now? Like does he go back to his old life or like what? And I will say that yeah I will say this as well the one thing that again didn't bother us as much and it should have is the fact that the need mention of mini-chorans in this that is called an M count in this in in the same is where I feel better kinder but it still pisses off that the brought like the force into some kind of like generic blood disorder but again but it shouldn't be it's just it should have been as it was I always thought like the idea of the force being very spiritual. Yeah I totally get what I do get like you come in from I just kind of acknowledge.
Well I like to say the continuity of it as well having the aspect and like hints towards like say the pre-goals and stuff. I do think potentially we might get like say because we've got the the sequels after like say before the Mandalorian came out so again they've got places that go to lead into them as well so it could see characters being developed that we've already seen so far so again well my name is Hyung Han and live having a child and like say Mandalorian in that chat. Maybe there's a baby like with so many possibilities and what they could do it's just it's jumped by everyone. You just don't know.
I'm excited again there's not many TV shows that still like bring this type of wonder that you when the coming to season three or season four you know where it's going to go and you don't know where this one's going to go and again I love the aspect that they've got rid of GrowGrew at this moment. Yeah I think and I think there's going to be crossover relevance as well like see I think we'll probably see a sorghum or I know she's going to want to see these but I think she'll be coming back in and I think Mando will probably be crossing paths in other shows as well. I think we'll see in the book of Bulba as an epimance maybe not as a recurring character but like as a one-off type of sort. Yeah the future is bright and the future is star wars at the minute is especially in TV.
Yes isn't it amazing just how a TV show can realign it. Because I am not going to shit all over the last three films because there's elements in there that I absolutely fucking love but when you've got something so consistently good that Mandalorian you realize like how hard to write along. How fucking lazy were you? And you've got to come from a writing.
Everything comes from the writing. I think it was just I think it was out of fear as well of not trying to see it too far with. Like I said just said we can't move too far we have been saying this has proven you can and I hope and I hope to do realize this and again all the new things that the announced from from the back of this again I can't really say anything bad about it. I know Disney and like I said all different avenues are are seeing a lot of gambles now especially in the Marvel universe with what's coming shall we say.
I don't know if you've seen the new Venom film yet. No it sounds pretty good. Oh you don't have to be in touch for that one for us so yeah I know what's coming with that. I just wanted the pace to pick up like I used to love this time year because we were getting hyped up for a star wars film like you know the countdown started when we're going to see like either all the way again and I don't have that anymore so I need I need them to pick the pace up.
Well the next one out I think but if they're going to keep me in the quality of that we've had from the Mandalorian I'm quite happy from the seeing the TV show I don't have to see them on the big screen. I'm totally fine with the TV quality because it allows for great story telling and I think that's what they're finally starting to see in television. Like it's a maze and how television is starting to form a rule. That's what it's about the time to do it.
Yeah I think the streaming sources and like subscription payments are making a lot more decisions that way but yeah I'm excited with it and I never thought I would say it because we had a lot of dark years when I came to star wars and stuff I had so I'm generally really excited about what we got all going to get and again even if you have the one bad episode I can forgive them just because they keep doing what they do. Yeah I can't I just can't agree with you more I really can't there's nothing not to love about this and well from my perspective and obviously yours and so there's I would say I would fall into you and love the Mandalorian. It might feel a bit it might feel a while since the last Mandalorian came out again I think it's a perfect time because this is about the time of year when we did get the Mandalorian so so it kind of leads in quite well but then I'm glad we're able to talk about something about sci-fi that's not horror as well so it's getting us back in the groove. Absolutely we just needed something to get away because I am very fatigued with horror at the moment and needed something that was a little bit more like with fluffy shall we see it and that was Star Wars was perfect so this was my choice.
Once we've heard next week there's going to be a bit more fluffy but not as much late because we've got two guests joining us next week Martin and Jake and we're going to talk everything about wrestling. Yes! So next week we're going back to Top 5 as well so we're doing Top 5 wrestlers so you have to think that I'll send the messages out as well to make sure that they do get there for 5G. Yes, I'm going to use it to be listening to Jake and Martin to get you this ready and put yet and we just quickly promote the live stream and also the boot club because the primary show that last week that I would always promote the boot club.
Yes so we do have a boot club alongside the Nodio Knop community it's called the Nodio Knop club and thanks again I know it's hands-on with the boot club as as of the aspects which is quite surprising knowing how of a control freak I am. It's at the Rain School but it is run by I believe a Charlotte and Peter. Peter, Peter? Peter was on last week I love the guests from last week and she joined us with the trailer reaction and joined us again.
No doubt because she is absolutely phenomenal and I said I would always promote every club but please support and join the this one which I cannot remember what it is. Yes but again like so you will be probably speaking even a lot about this, like I'm going to be putting much every week on the podcast and on the Facebook group whenever chance. We are going to do a live charity stream on the 20th November on a Sunday at 10am to 10pm. We are going to have a guest every hour.
Me and Sam is going to be surprised and we don't know what the topic is going to be so you will see some expressions, you will probably say make one right Sam you talk about this, I'm going to hide. I'm going to go to the toilet. Yeah it's going to be interesting. The more support we get for it, the better we are.
Me and Charlie for the willows sanctuary. We raised half of our goal already. The goal was to raise £200. We are at £107.
I believe £100 which has been absolutely amazing so I haven't really promoted too much as of yet. Yes, Katie solves on the Facebook community. There is a good laugh going on there. We have weekly competitions, or not weekly competitions where you can win an early t-shirt.
We will do a quiz soon. If you do have a monthly vote, you can be voting king of the nerds for that month. We are all playing our reigning king. King of the first male king.
We had Queen Donna and Queen Charlotte. So from me and Sam can't be nominated because we run the place and we can actually see if we get named. We would just become the Michael Scott. If you are an office man you want to wear me by that.
And with all the heel I will king care at the moment. His crown by Kelly was fantastic. Awesome work Kelly. The crotch worth Queen shall we say.
Yes, and this livestream is going to be very... Regardless of what happens on the day, it really is for a good cause. It generally is. Me and Paul are both half-parents.
It means a lot to us. In our area. Sorry, I just heard my cat want nuts. Oh, the old cat.
Sorry. Can I hear cats while I'm trying to talk about cats? Oh, hey, sign up baby girl. She's so cute.
