I think... if Favrou, is pitching the idea that Din Dinjarron, becomes the next Mandalore... I think I would like that... Perhaps his character has begun to earn it, if they do a good job of showing the actual part of him being the next Mandalore
I thought maybe mando was bound to become the next... Mandalore. But it just occured to me.... maybe Grogu is going to be The Mandalore. Raised by a Mandalorian, with the gifts of the greatest of jedi. Perhaps he will even complete his own version of jedi training. just some maybes etc perhaps he might even come across The Holocron created by the original Mandalore who wielded the dark saber. There isnt one in the star wars lore yet, but it could suddenly appear. if you feel like throwing these ideas out in a video maybe it will happen?
The music, editing, analysis and writing are all amazing. Hell, he added sound effects on top of the music so we could hear the guns, explosions, ships and whatnot. Truly excellent
All the characters here are at different stages on their journey and it’s brilliant. Mando is struggling to continue his journey while being reluctant to change, being bound to a code he’s unsure of. Greef Carga is at the turning point of his journey, finding a way out of what Mando cannot. Boba has had his journey and is bound to the code of a bounty hunter, but is willing to break it for the benefit of others. Fennec has chosen her path in the bad batch but is now realising that bounty hunter is not all she has to be, and changes her ideals to align more with Boba. Bo-Katan has lost her way and is now trying to find it in the darksaber. The Armourer has bound herself to a code that she believes in but isn’t willing to shake it, ever Quill has found his peace and knows his code is the one he wants. Moff Gideon is unwilling to shake his world view and has no code, only the want to further his power. Ahsoka is however the selfless version of Gideon, who will do what she must to empower the powerless If you don’t agree with me on any of this, have something to add or think I’ve missed something, let me know :)
Except all of this is barely shown. We don't know what even is his code besides the helmet rule (which he takes off in front of opened window and imperial scanner for no reason at all, because it shouldn't even work on him) and what is his journey besides bounty hunting and protecting Grogu. "Finding a way out of what Mando cannot" - what does this even mean? Boba is willing to break his code - why? Because Mando left his ship opened so Bona could walk in and take his armour back? Fennec changes her ideals - what were her ideals and why does she need to change them to align with Boba if they both are bounty hunters? Bo-Katan always tries to find the darksaber and doesn't care about any code, only her own benefit. She worked with Pre Vizla who was going to kill her sister and take the throne, but rebelled against Maul when he took his place... Again, we don't know this code and what we do is contradictive. "Beskar is for armour, not weapons" - holding a darksaber made of Beskar and forging whistling birds out of it..."The existence of the spear puts us in danger" - oh sure, in the world of blasters, lasres, rockets and bombs the spear is the real danger (which a human can't push hard enough to stab through armour..although you can just stab unarmoured half of the body)...If you ever removed your helmet, you're not Mandalorian, so now there are only two of us, but you can keep all Mandalorian stuff... What is Quill's code? Constantly repeat "I have spoken"? Yeah, and Gideon likes to kill stormtroopers, the only army he has left who aren't recruited anymore... Ahsoka empowers the powerless...except Grogu who she doesn't want to train because it's dangerous but also doesn't care if somebody else trains him...
Gonna be honest in a time where I often feel like I’m constantly told I’m wrong for enjoying the things I love, I really needed a video like this. A video that celebrates everything I love about this show, and puts it into better words that I ever could. Thanks a lot for this. It was a real blast to watch.
I like how everyone who gets force healed in Star Wars immediately becomes much nicer haha. Greef Karga, the snake in Rise of Skywalker, and Kylo Ren. A great metaphor for selflessness and how it can help you make connections, and help other people become selfless as well.
Its even more interesting with that revelation is that the jedi Council outlawed it because there was a risk of forming attachments and turning to the dark side. But what we're seeing is an act of compassion can even tear down the walls of selfishness
“Where the night owls showed Mando precision, Boba shows him might.” That literally gave me chills. It’s such a true statement. I absolutely love your channel and every time you upload it’s a great. Thank you so much for the effort you put into these video essays.
Also I love how you mentioned Gideon using the dark saber to manipulate the mandalorians in a sense. It makes sense as THRAWN would be like Gideons superior and he knows all about his enemies.
Gideon and Thrawn are great evil characters. More Thrawn would be cool, it would give a chance for more space ships and space battles to be shown. Gideon is so manipulatively empire evil its deliciously devilistic. The dark saber HAS to have more story line shown at this point. To interesting and compelling. I agree completely that these two are perfect new bad guys to have on screen instead of the emperor (again).
I’ve seen the first half of this three times (with different guests over), finally got to finish the whole thing. I’m not even sure how to articulate how grateful I am for this video. All of your video essays elevate projects I already hold near and dear (clone wars, bad batch etc), but I couldn’t have imagined how great this mando breakdown would be. I seriously cant even put it into words. If i could only “keep” one video in all of youtube it would have to be this lol. If i tried to list all the amazing details this comment would be as long as the video, but there’s one I want to bring attention to. In the S2 finale when Bo Katan whispers “a jedi” is one of my favorite small moments of the season, her almost mystical sounding delivery and recognition is amazing. The way you edited the segment at 1:41:23 elevates it to another level and adds this incredible extra context to the scene even if you’re familiar with all of the other source material. Thank you thank you thank you.
This was one of the best dissections of the themes and messages of the Mandalorian I have ever seen. You put so much work into this video and it shows. Great work!!
I love Kurosawa. And love western. Didn't know their relationship. Thank you for the insight. It all explains why I enjoyed Mando so much, could definitely see the western in it, but not the rest. Great video.
True ! Yet he is paid (I hope) on his views which are at least 10 times more than subscribers. Which is outstanding ! While many YT-ers have 10 times less views than their subscribers which is sad...
“I didn’t want to be inspired by Star Wars, I wanted to be inspired by the things that inspired George” - the difference between the greatness of Favreau and the failure of JJ Abrams. One wanted to make their own Star Wars content, and one wanted to make a fan film
This is the thing I think is missed most by the majority of Disney Star Wars. Star Wars is just the setting, not the film itself. The more people who embrace that - like Favreau and Feloni (and many "fan film" makers as well) have, the more will find success in making new Star Wars material worthy of the Lucas material.
@@TJDK Is it wrong that I think Deborah Chow is also worthy with Obi Wan Kenobi and Rodriguez with Book of Boba Fett? I'll take flawed buy heartfelt and passion filled over technically good and souless (the sequel trilogy and Solo)
Your use of Kreia’s speech leading into Part 6, that was amazingly well done and set up the mood perfectly. Would love to see you Knights of the Old Republic 2 someday, for even if it’s not canon, the perspective it offered on Star Wars and mythology as a whole is one that has been rarely seen before or since.
A suggestion for those who dont have time to watch the entire video at once: Watch Parts 1-3 (Season 1) one day and Parts 4-6 (Season 2) the next. Both are approximately an hour long each.
This was the most in-depth POSITIVE look at a series I've ever seen, as so many reviews these days focus on the how negatively people reacted to a show or film, and not what that show or film was trying to say. They gloss over the production and critique the final product and what people say about it. Your series of on Star Wars shows is refreshing and well researched, you have created an end product to be proud of. Edit: I respect the ad placement too and how it was masterfully woven in.
ArTorr really is like what CinemaWins was to CinemaSins; A more positive outlook, in a time when negativity, cynicism, and even bad faith is in vogue. I just binged all his Star Wars content over the past day, and I'm looking forward to hearing what he has to say on other series', as well as future Star Wars products going forward.
For the last few years I, like a lot of people, have been feeling some real Star Wars fatigue, but your videos always provide a new perspective on the universe that I have grown up with and love. They teach me new ways to think about the content I watch and the world around me and for that I am endlessly thankful. Keep doing what you’re doing man!
I love how there are moments in the narration, usually when you're saying something really cool or dramatic, where I can tell just by listening to it that you're actively bursting at the seams with barely contained excitement as you say it. Little stuff like that is a great hint at the level of passion poured into these videos.
As many others have said before, Artorr's videos feel like full documentaries that I should be paying to watch on my TV with the family. You always get me to think about Star Wars in new ways, even looking past my personal criticisms and gripes, showing us the kind of history and detail that goes into the creation of these movies and shows, connecting them so fluidly with the history of cinema. You make these series feel so much more grand and you have really gotten to the heart of these characters and the storytellers who have created them or continued their stories. You always provide a new perspective and appreciation to Star Wars! I'm sure I'll be re-watching this soon in anticipation for your next project!
So I never leave comments, but around chapter 4 I said to myself "I'm gonna leave a comment saying how much I love this video, and how clearly the passion they have for westerns, samurai films, and star wars comes through." And then the conclusion came, and this video hit a whole other level of personal for me. I'm also a film nerd from PA, who went on a road trip to Florida with their mom, where their feeling of a new home, one away from their trauma back in PA, was really solidified. For me, the home wasn't Florida, but being on the road itself. I have fantasized Din's life in the Razor Crest as being my own (minus the killings) . And by next summer I will be living my own version of that life, in an RV full-time. And I might just have to name the RV "The Lamer Crest". Thank you for this video my dude. I love your videos normally, but this one hit me emotionally on a whole other level
It really is a small world. Wild. So glad the video hit home for you. The more I think about it, the road might be home for me too. Have fun in that RV!
Mando is trash. Writing level: Mando takes jetpack off despite Grogu is safe in force field, then just forgets his jetpack on the ground for the whole episode and runs to hill by legs, leaves his ship unlocked and opened, goes to fight stormtroopers instead of staying on the hill and protecting Grogu, stormtroopers are so useless they don't shoot to Boba while he beats them with a club, can't step away from a rolling boulder, don't use cannons on their ships, don't shoot at Fennec when they surround her, they can hit only armoured parts of Mandalorian...Why did Moff Gideon send them at all instead of just blasting both ships and sending Dark Troopers?
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p If everybody were perfect there would be no drama and life would be pretty boring. If you were to rate shows by all the mistakes the lead characters made to create the drama and the story. I this basis alone almost every movie, t.v. show and novel would be crap! So it's nice that you have shown everybody all the mistakes Mando made that you would not have because you are so much smarter and never make stupid mistakes in life. But for us lowly average humans who live in the real world and watch ourselves and others make stupid mistakes everyday it's entertaining for are small little imperfect minds in our small little imperfect world.
@@codysteel8245 So there's no middle ground between perfect and brainless? You can't write a compentent hunter actually using his skills to fight enemies who are actually a threat? How can you take seriously him jumping towards a minigun, being hit a thousand times, and none of them in the uncovered half of his body? And yeah, with this approach you can defend everything, like Alien Covenant or Rise of Skywalker.
Parkes, you continue to describe in plain language the vast impact of "what Lucas did" with Star Wars, not just the film, but the lore, the principle, and the legacy of Star Wars. Thank you once again for putting a finger on the feeling that every Star Wars fan who loved Mando couldn't quite place. Overjoyed too that you've launched a patreon, you deserve to be compensated for the sheer hours of passion you devote to these masterpieces of modern media. While Mass Effect isn't my "scene", you continue to draw life lessons from art, and you can bet I'll be waiting patiently for our next dose of Artorr.
I opened this video to bookmark it for later. I "accidently" watched the first 5 minutes. 2 hours later I'm just in awe with the quality and riveting nature of what you have produced here. Thank you. I look forward to following you more in the future. I'm looking forward to re-watching this video again once it hits a million views which will surely be soon! Thanks again :)
This is S tier writing, arrangement, content origination and development, structuring, etc... This is just phenomenal. Please keep up the fantastic work
This level of quality I did not expect but the surprise was a welcome one. Editing scenes from the show, movies and background production was top notch. This documentary / essay was very worth watching from start to finish.
THIS IS AMAZING Only a few hours left to the mandalorian season 3 And thanks to this video I m more Hyped than ever The edition The symbolism the music the investigation behind the inspiration… This is GOD tier Star Wars video
The writing, the editing, it's all just *chef's kiss* perfection. Another amazing video, and well worth the wait. (Also, I would seriously watch that little music video on its own, it's so good).
Also, just wanted to add that I'm incredibly grateful that your channel is one of the few places on the Internet that consistently discuses Star Wars in a way that doesn't give me terrible anxiety. I greatly appreciate it.
As someone who also feels anxiety from some of those toxic spaces, it is VERY important to me that I facilitate a environment with my videos that is positive and inclusive, but still intellectual and still engaged with the material. So I'm happy to know you find some of that here. Thanks for checking out the video 🤍
I already loved the Mandalorian series, but this video brought out aspects I hadn't recognised before, which made me appreciate the series even more. I love the way you draw meaning from this series in such an insightful and relevant way.
The parallel between IG-11 and Mando was something I never considered, and you definitely tugged my heart by saying over the music from the scene where Grogu flicked the fireball...and I'm gonna go cry for a minute.
The Mandalorian was the breath of fresh air star wars needed, it was the family story set in spectacular fashion that made the original trilogy such a hit
This man is really out here making the absolute most top tier Star Wars video essay content out here. Just binged through all three clone Wars episodes, the rebels one, the bad batch one, and now this one. If there were Emmy's for UA-cam, this would be a shoo-in
Parkes, I don't know if you'll see this but I wanted to tell you that your videos were a huge part of the inspiration to start creating my own long-form essays. Your work is incredible and this video is your best yet. Truly some of the best video essay / documentary content on the entire internet. You seriously deserve all your success. I just pledged to the $1 tier on patreon :)
You should ALREADY have had 200k+ subs by now. It's an insult to your skill and ethic for people to not know or not appreciate your work. Big kudos, Arr. ✊👊💪♥️🖤
Your documentaries (far more than a youtube vid) are probably some of the best produced, written an edited on all of UA-cam. The time, effort an passion shows through and they are a joy to watch. 2 hours doesn't feel like a long watch at all tbh. I hope you keep doing them and you start to get the views and subscribers this work truly deserves.
As a huge, huge huge huge Star Wars Fan. I learned more in the first 2 minutes of this video (throwbacks of the old samurai/western films and similarities to Star Wars Ep 4) then I have ever.. Instant subbed, liked, favourited, and I still have another 2 hours to go.. Legend.
I wasn’t expecting this kind of analysis of my favorite TV show. What a wonderful surprise! It may have been “fourth months in the making,” but you succeeded in making My Day! Thank you!
This examination of Din's journey made me cry at more than 5 points. You went far into the western and samurai stories I had heard of, and brought out what he must've been feeling. You also made a connection to the cameos, that made sense to the story, not just with the connections I was familiar with. I liked the show already, but i was getting burned out on Star Wars. I never felt the depth of what he went through until you brought it up and the fact that fate was demanding more and more of him, despite him being tired, to make him _balanced_ as all in Star Wars must push toward. This is the kind of character examination I love hearing. Thank you.
This, THIS is just what i needed right before the next season of Mando. Your video is a beautiful summary of everything that makes The Mandalorian so great. You're underrated as hell, man.
I watched this whole thing in one sitting while marathoning an art piece. It's so so good. You really *get* Star Wars, and why people love it. I enjoyed learning more about the behind-the-scenes and the historical context of where Star Wars comes from with the Samurai and the Western. This was such a joy. Now to go back and watch everything else you've made!
This was the most excellent retrospective of the Mandolin made to date . It’s an amazing collection and a pure delight . I’m sure I speak for many when I say we look forward to your future endeavors
I have some friends and family that haven't seen The Mandalorian. They really want to get into it and they're always asking me a ton of questions about... well, all of it. As one might assume, if they haven't seen Mando, then they probably aren't huge fans of Star Wars in general. So I get asked all kinds of questions about the entire galaxy... all the time. NOW, I can send them this! This video essay is simply superb. The way "Artorr" is able to take subtext, subplot, overall themes, etc.. and juxtapose them with the inspiration for Star Wars and even mix in some of his own style and inspiration and love for this galaxy far, far away.. is inspirational itself. I rarely will watch the entirety of long form essays like this on YT but, I've become a real fan of this guy's work. 🙏
This is exceptional. Truly beautiful. I'm at a loss for words, and I'm very rarely left speechless. An absolute must watch. The scripting, the musical composition, the in-depth analysis and editing of this is nothing short of a masterclass. Magnificent.
This is possibly the best 2hrs of SW related content on UA-cam right now. Edit: I'm only 25 minutes in and I'm blown away. Your writing has improved so much (not that was ever bad mind you) that it's honestly as good or better than really good TV documentaries. Also we gotta acknowledge the editing. Holy smokes the opening sequence sets the viewer up to expect a high level of quality and attention to detail which amps up the dialog all the more. The music and video clips work great but then you added sound effects on top of all that for sword clashes and blasters etc.. Absolutely great
Thank you for this. Beautiful, beautiful video. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to hear someone speak positively about modern day Star Wars for a change. There may be a lot that the Disney era doesn’t get right, but man, there is so much more that I feel adds to the lore and world building of the Galaxy Far Far Away that we all love and people don’t give it nearly enough credit.
1:39:24 "Din Djarin fights a battle not of Mandalorian glory, but of protecting Grogu." In Mandalorian creed, "children are the future". Din is fighting to protect the future. And that makes his 'claim' on the Darksaber, on the leadership of a dying culture and people, feel so right. He's fighting for a worthy cause that can guide the scattered and lost remnants of his people on a better, united Way😢
This is legitimately one of the absolute best Star Wars video essays I've ever seen, from the building and revelation of themes, to the comparisons to other media I had seldom considered in relation Star Wars, to the outstanding editing of this (seriously, where did you learn to edit? lol), every part of it was well thought, well spoken, and well done. Thank you for your stellar work, and I will be sticking around to see what comes next. Thank you for making your own lasting impression on me, and for helping celebrate the good things of such a personally important and culturally enduring story.
These Star Wars videos are some of the best on the subject and provide a great insight into the inspiration for the show. The editing is also amazing and truly ties the whole thing together. Not sure if you do it yourself or pay someone but keep up the good work!
Thank you ArTorr. You encapsulate all my feelings and emotions when watching these shows. You put it in words where I could never. Your videos, editing, narration, time and effort are above any production I have ever seen. Looking forward to your future content, so glad I stumbled across your channel. Bring on the Mass Effect 3 video.
Talking about "the ectasy of gold", I just had "the ecstasy of beskar" while watching this. LOOOVE your disection of the "The Jedi", so amazing, especially when you said that the final battle was essentially "Yojimbo" happening in one room, while the western remake "a fistful of dollars" happened in the other, that was soooo good and I can say that's exactly how I have described that scene to my friends: a samurai duel meanwhile a cowboy stand off is having place just at the other side of a wall
This is so far my favorite video essay from you the editing, music, even the way you describe and analyze everything is like a narrator telling the tale of an epic quest thank you so much!
Wow, I am so impressed by someone so young grasping the realities of life. Also by how informed and professional this documentary was made. You sir I believe has a bright and incredible future ahead of you. You have made a great documentary about a show but also about what it is to be human. Congratulations
This is truly brilliant, well thought out and insightful, it is obvious you put a lot of love into this. Certain youtubers who have made a living from trying to destroy Star Wars, even though they know very little about it, should take note. Well done Sir.
Can you PLEASE expand on this with a second video covering The Book of Boba Fett and season 3 of The Mandalorian??? My entire clan and I would be forever bound to serve for such a blessing from The Maker.
This is truly two hours well spent. The weaving of the Hero’s Journey from the start of the Mandalorian saga and lore to the real life asphalt of the open road that we have all travelled the last few years is spectacularly done. I found myself emotional at times as I remembered my own past as a scrawny nine year old in a movie theater in ’77 and how my life has played out over the last 45 years. This is truly the heart of what it means to be a fan of this franchise and the subtle lessons that are passed to the viewer in its undertakings. Your love of it comes through over and over again as the two hours pass by quite quickly and I found myself wanting more as the credits and end message arrived. Thank you for this one! I look forward to further exploring the rest of your channel and wish you well in all your future endeavors. MTFBWY… always!
I swear, everytime I see one of your videos, I'm genuinely inspired by the end, I feel like I can take on the whole world and rewatch these shows with newfound knowledge and appreciation. Words cannot describe the good that you are doing just by making these videos and I hope that you garner a titanic audience someday because this is something that is truly needed in our seamingly bleak and hopeless world.
The love and effort you put into these essays is outstanding, and the video editing is entertaining and cleverly emphasises parts of what you're actually saying. I will always, happily, come back to your channel, regardless of the wait between videos.
Man this is the best mandalorian retrospective I have ever watched on UA-cam and I've seen pretty much all of them. Kudos and many thanks: this is the way
I had the place to myself and spent the last few days playing your entire back catalog on the TV in my office. All the stuff you made gives me many warm feelings in my heart ❤. I wish I could tell everybody I know about your channel, but I don't know a lot of people 😢. By any chance do you have content on nebula? Your material is a lot better than a lot of the stuff that's up there, they'd be lucky to have you on their platform
Being someone who’s about to move away to college this really resonates with me. This video is my favorite of yours so far and certainly hits an emotional chord with me
Each time you drop a new video, it becomes the best part of my week. Nailed it yet again and I love the distillation of all the things that made me love this show. Well worth the wait, and I can’t wait for your next one and all in the future!
Thank you for checking this out then. Stay tuned!! 😎
Рік тому+14
only reason my generation made Boba Fet so popular, was that tiny rocket launcher, the action figure had as a gadget. I guess that fact eluded Disney's marketing department.
Congrats on getting the video to the finish line! You've proven yet again that your videos are exceptionally well put together, and are essential companion pieces to Star Wars media. I hope you continue to receive all the recognition you rightly deserve.
It’s been a few months since I’ve watched or engaged with your content, stuff gets away from you, you know how life be sometimes, but I enjoyed every minute of this 2 hour long odyssey. You can tell how much time and care went into crafting this video and it’s just a joy to experience. Glad to see your still doing well and making great stuff. Keep up the great work Parkes!
This was absolutely a MAGNIFICENT labor of love, a tribute to a wonderful legacy, and a remarkable documentary exhibiting the history and the careful nurturing on a fabulous franchise that many of us acknowledge as the BEST sci-fi genre. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for your efforts and all the time that you put into this exceptional video.
Truly you're work is amazing, from editing to sound and writing every portion is so professional or could be taken as being bonus content from a DVD. Keep up the excellence
You're amazing man. One of the few people on this website who will make me wish the video would go on just another hour more. Your editing and storytelling talent is truly something to aspire to.

THE AD WAS GREAT
I think... if Favrou, is pitching the idea that Din Dinjarron, becomes the next Mandalore... I think I would like that... Perhaps his character has begun to earn it, if they do a good job of showing the actual part of him being the next Mandalore
So I didn't realize it until now but ive seen most of your Star Wars videos. Really good stuff man. You're doing a great job!
I thought maybe mando was bound to become the next... Mandalore. But it just occured to me.... maybe Grogu is going to be The Mandalore. Raised by a Mandalorian, with the gifts of the greatest of jedi. Perhaps he will even complete his own version of jedi training. just some maybes etc perhaps he might even come across The Holocron created by the original Mandalore who wielded the dark saber. There isnt one in the star wars lore yet, but it could suddenly appear. if you feel like throwing these ideas out in a video maybe it will happen?
Ah yes, another highly underrated channel making glorious content.
Agreed, I would love to know other channels like this, do you know of any?
This production quality feels like it should cost a hell of a lot to watch. Awesome job
The music, editing, analysis and writing are all amazing. Hell, he added sound effects on top of the music so we could hear the guns, explosions, ships and whatnot. Truly excellent
This feels as if it belonged on Disney Plus. Fantastic quality.
The fact that he designed all those ships and characters just to show us his video editing skills is amazing! 🤣😂🤣
honestly feels like a whole documentary from disney
All the characters here are at different stages on their journey and it’s brilliant.
Mando is struggling to continue his journey while being reluctant to change, being bound to a code he’s unsure of.
Greef Carga is at the turning point of his journey, finding a way out of what Mando cannot.
Boba has had his journey and is bound to the code of a bounty hunter, but is willing to break it for the benefit of others.
Fennec has chosen her path in the bad batch but is now realising that bounty hunter is not all she has to be, and changes her ideals to align more with Boba.
Bo-Katan has lost her way and is now trying to find it in the darksaber.
The Armourer has bound herself to a code that she believes in but isn’t willing to shake it, ever
Quill has found his peace and knows his code is the one he wants.
Moff Gideon is unwilling to shake his world view and has no code, only the want to further his power.
Ahsoka is however the selfless version of Gideon, who will do what she must to empower the powerless
If you don’t agree with me on any of this, have something to add or think I’ve missed something, let me know :)
Great perspective on all the characters!! Very interested to see where all those journeys lead next...
@@ArTorrPresents Well, we’ve got Mando S3 to come. Love your vids, have watched them all
I notice a lack of Cara Dune in this comment and it disturbs me
Except all of this is barely shown. We don't know what even is his code besides the helmet rule (which he takes off in front of opened window and imperial scanner for no reason at all, because it shouldn't even work on him) and what is his journey besides bounty hunting and protecting Grogu.
"Finding a way out of what Mando cannot" - what does this even mean?
Boba is willing to break his code - why? Because Mando left his ship opened so Bona could walk in and take his armour back?
Fennec changes her ideals - what were her ideals and why does she need to change them to align with Boba if they both are bounty hunters?
Bo-Katan always tries to find the darksaber and doesn't care about any code, only her own benefit. She worked with Pre Vizla who was going to kill her sister and take the throne, but rebelled against Maul when he took his place...
Again, we don't know this code and what we do is contradictive. "Beskar is for armour, not weapons" - holding a darksaber made of Beskar and forging whistling birds out of it..."The existence of the spear puts us in danger" - oh sure, in the world of blasters, lasres, rockets and bombs the spear is the real danger (which a human can't push hard enough to stab through armour..although you can just stab unarmoured half of the body)...If you ever removed your helmet, you're not Mandalorian, so now there are only two of us, but you can keep all Mandalorian stuff...
What is Quill's code? Constantly repeat "I have spoken"?
Yeah, and Gideon likes to kill stormtroopers, the only army he has left who aren't recruited anymore...
Ahsoka empowers the powerless...except Grogu who she doesn't want to train because it's dangerous but also doesn't care if somebody else trains him...
@@brokengamer2378 Oh yeah, another season of watching Mando fixing his ship, shooting useless stormtroopers and Grogu eating frogs...how exciting...
2 HOURS LONG? WE'RE IN FOR A TREAT LESGOOO!!!
Good, twice the length, double the watch
Ohhh yesss!
I felt treated! Didn't you? 👍💖
I hope he does Grogu next!
Gonna be honest in a time where I often feel like I’m constantly told I’m wrong for enjoying the things I love, I really needed a video like this. A video that celebrates everything I love about this show, and puts it into better words that I ever could. Thanks a lot for this. It was a real blast to watch.
I like how everyone who gets force healed in Star Wars immediately becomes much nicer haha. Greef Karga, the snake in Rise of Skywalker, and Kylo Ren. A great metaphor for selflessness and how it can help you make connections, and help other people become selfless as well.
Its even more interesting with that revelation is that the jedi Council outlawed it because there was a risk of forming attachments and turning to the dark side. But what we're seeing is an act of compassion can even tear down the walls of selfishness
@@michaelharvey7793 Oh they did? That’s interesting. Where’d you hear that?
“Where the night owls showed Mando precision, Boba shows him might.” That literally gave me chills. It’s such a true statement. I absolutely love your channel and every time you upload it’s a great. Thank you so much for the effort you put into these video essays.
Also I love how you mentioned Gideon using the dark saber to manipulate the mandalorians in a sense. It makes sense as THRAWN would be like Gideons superior and he knows all about his enemies.
that's a great point that I never thought of. I do hope some day for the return of Ezra Bridger and Thrawn
Gideon and Thrawn are great evil characters. More Thrawn would be cool, it would give a chance for more space ships and space battles to be shown. Gideon is so manipulatively empire evil its deliciously devilistic. The dark saber HAS to have more story line shown at this point. To interesting and compelling. I agree completely that these two are perfect new bad guys to have on screen instead of the emperor (again).
This guy deserves more subscribers for all the time and effort it puts in these videos
I know, life is so unfair sometimes
His style of videos are quite literally shat on by the UA-cam algorithm. You are right, but Google only cares about how much money you make them.
Sounds like its time for a revolution. Put the word out there! Get this man some publicity!
Agreed , his videos are fantastic
“If you build it, they will come.”
since the announcement i’ve seriously been counting down the days to this.. thank you for putting so much effort into these incredible videos
I’ve seen the first half of this three times (with different guests over), finally got to finish the whole thing.
I’m not even sure how to articulate how grateful I am for this video. All of your video essays elevate projects I already hold near and dear (clone wars, bad batch etc), but I couldn’t have imagined how great this mando breakdown would be.
I seriously cant even put it into words. If i could only “keep” one video in all of youtube it would have to be this lol.
If i tried to list all the amazing details this comment would be as long as the video, but there’s one I want to bring attention to. In the S2 finale when Bo Katan whispers “a jedi” is one of my favorite small moments of the season, her almost mystical sounding delivery and recognition is amazing. The way you edited the segment at 1:41:23 elevates it to another level and adds this incredible extra context to the scene even if you’re familiar with all of the other source material.
Thank you thank you thank you.
This was one of the best dissections of the themes and messages of the Mandalorian I have ever seen. You put so much work into this video and it shows. Great work!!
Thank you so much!!
I love Kurosawa. And love western. Didn't know their relationship. Thank you for the insight. It all explains why I enjoyed Mando so much, could definitely see the western in it, but not the rest. Great video.
True ! Yet he is paid (I hope) on his views which are at least 10 times more than subscribers.
Which is outstanding !
While many YT-ers have 10 times less views than their subscribers which is sad...
The opening alone was better than most UA-cam content... and there’s more than two hours to go. And I eagerly expect every second of it.
“I didn’t want to be inspired by Star Wars, I wanted to be inspired by the things that inspired George” - the difference between the greatness of Favreau and the failure of JJ Abrams. One wanted to make their own Star Wars content, and one wanted to make a fan film
Hey, that’s an insult to some of the better fan films!
@@officialmonarchmusic Hey I said one WANTED to make a fan film. Whether he even succeeded at that is up to you lol
This is the thing I think is missed most by the majority of Disney Star Wars. Star Wars is just the setting, not the film itself. The more people who embrace that - like Favreau and Feloni (and many "fan film" makers as well) have, the more will find success in making new Star Wars material worthy of the Lucas material.
@@TJDK Is it wrong that I think Deborah Chow is also worthy with Obi Wan Kenobi and Rodriguez with Book of Boba Fett? I'll take flawed buy heartfelt and passion filled over technically good and souless (the sequel trilogy and Solo)
If only any of them cared about good writing...
Your use of Kreia’s speech leading into Part 6, that was amazingly well done and set up the mood perfectly. Would love to see you Knights of the Old Republic 2 someday, for even if it’s not canon, the perspective it offered on Star Wars and mythology as a whole is one that has been rarely seen before or since.
I was wondering where that came from. Time to play Knights of the Old Republic! I sure hope ArTorr can make a video on these amazing Star Wars epics.
I love KOTOR 2, and would love to make a video about it at some point!
I love that game too. Thank you for spreading the word about it. Kreia is one of the single greatest characters in the mythology.
My favorite part was the transition from Part 5 into Part 6.
The moment I heard it I hoped there would be a comment calling it out. Happy to find yours! :)
A suggestion for those who dont have time to watch the entire video at once: Watch Parts 1-3 (Season 1) one day and Parts 4-6 (Season 2) the next. Both are approximately an hour long each.
This was the most in-depth POSITIVE look at a series I've ever seen, as so many reviews these days focus on the how negatively people reacted to a show or film, and not what that show or film was trying to say. They gloss over the production and critique the final product and what people say about it. Your series of on Star Wars shows is refreshing and well researched, you have created an end product to be proud of.
Edit: I respect the ad placement too and how it was masterfully woven in.
ArTorr really is like what CinemaWins was to CinemaSins; A more positive outlook, in a time when negativity, cynicism, and even bad faith is in vogue. I just binged all his Star Wars content over the past day, and I'm looking forward to hearing what he has to say on other series', as well as future Star Wars products going forward.
For the last few years I, like a lot of people, have been feeling some real Star Wars fatigue, but your videos always provide a new perspective on the universe that I have grown up with and love. They teach me new ways to think about the content I watch and the world around me and for that I am endlessly thankful. Keep doing what you’re doing man!
Jeez that production value. That video's editing and scripting must have taken ages. Well done.
Thank you-- and yes, it did take some time 😅
I love how there are moments in the narration, usually when you're saying something really cool or dramatic, where I can tell just by listening to it that you're actively bursting at the seams with barely contained excitement as you say it. Little stuff like that is a great hint at the level of passion poured into these videos.
Aw thanks man, grateful that others can recognize how much these mean to me ☺
Tysm Arken for introducing me to ArTorr and So Uncivilised some of the best content on this site
As many others have said before, Artorr's videos feel like full documentaries that I should be paying to watch on my TV with the family. You always get me to think about Star Wars in new ways, even looking past my personal criticisms and gripes, showing us the kind of history and detail that goes into the creation of these movies and shows, connecting them so fluidly with the history of cinema. You make these series feel so much more grand and you have really gotten to the heart of these characters and the storytellers who have created them or continued their stories. You always provide a new perspective and appreciation to Star Wars! I'm sure I'll be re-watching this soon in anticipation for your next project!
2 HOURS?!? MY BROTHER IN CHRIST-
Really excited to watch this after work
So I never leave comments, but around chapter 4 I said to myself "I'm gonna leave a comment saying how much I love this video, and how clearly the passion they have for westerns, samurai films, and star wars comes through."
And then the conclusion came, and this video hit a whole other level of personal for me. I'm also a film nerd from PA, who went on a road trip to Florida with their mom, where their feeling of a new home, one away from their trauma back in PA, was really solidified. For me, the home wasn't Florida, but being on the road itself. I have fantasized Din's life in the Razor Crest as being my own (minus the killings) . And by next summer I will be living my own version of that life, in an RV full-time. And I might just have to name the RV "The Lamer Crest". Thank you for this video my dude. I love your videos normally, but this one hit me emotionally on a whole other level
It really is a small world. Wild. So glad the video hit home for you. The more I think about it, the road might be home for me too. Have fun in that RV!
I always thought Mando was fantastic but I had know idea how deep everything’s meaning really were. Amazing video!
Also PA!
Thank you!!
Mando is trash. Writing level: Mando takes jetpack off despite Grogu is safe in force field, then just forgets his jetpack on the ground for the whole episode and runs to hill by legs, leaves his ship unlocked and opened, goes to fight stormtroopers instead of staying on the hill and protecting Grogu, stormtroopers are so useless they don't shoot to Boba while he beats them with a club, can't step away from a rolling boulder, don't use cannons on their ships, don't shoot at Fennec when they surround her, they can hit only armoured parts of Mandalorian...Why did Moff Gideon send them at all instead of just blasting both ships and sending Dark Troopers?
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p If everybody were perfect there would be no drama and life would be pretty boring. If you were to rate shows by all the mistakes the lead characters made to create the drama and the story. I this basis alone almost every movie, t.v. show and novel would be crap! So it's nice that you have shown everybody all the mistakes Mando made that you would not have because you are so much smarter and never make stupid mistakes in life. But for us lowly average humans who live in the real world and watch ourselves and others make stupid mistakes everyday it's entertaining for are small little imperfect minds in our small little imperfect world.
@@codysteel8245 So there's no middle ground between perfect and brainless? You can't write a compentent hunter actually using his skills to fight enemies who are actually a threat? How can you take seriously him jumping towards a minigun, being hit a thousand times, and none of them in the uncovered half of his body? And yeah, with this approach you can defend everything, like Alien Covenant or Rise of Skywalker.
Parkes, you continue to describe in plain language the vast impact of "what Lucas did" with Star Wars, not just the film, but the lore, the principle, and the legacy of Star Wars. Thank you once again for putting a finger on the feeling that every Star Wars fan who loved Mando couldn't quite place. Overjoyed too that you've launched a patreon, you deserve to be compensated for the sheer hours of passion you devote to these masterpieces of modern media. While Mass Effect isn't my "scene", you continue to draw life lessons from art, and you can bet I'll be waiting patiently for our next dose of Artorr.
I appreciate your support and your thoughts here. Thank you for checking this out and stay tuned! 🙂
I opened this video to bookmark it for later. I "accidently" watched the first 5 minutes. 2 hours later I'm just in awe with the quality and riveting nature of what you have produced here. Thank you. I look forward to following you more in the future. I'm looking forward to re-watching this video again once it hits a million views which will surely be soon! Thanks again :)
This is S tier writing, arrangement, content origination and development, structuring, etc... This is just phenomenal. Please keep up the fantastic work
THANK you 🙏
This level of quality I did not expect but the surprise was a welcome one. Editing scenes from the show, movies and background production was top notch. This documentary / essay was very worth watching from start to finish.
The amount of hours put into editing are very visible and all off the hard work shows.
Amazing video man
Thank you!
THIS IS AMAZING
Only a few hours left to the mandalorian season 3
And thanks to this video I m more Hyped than ever
The edition The symbolism the music the investigation behind the inspiration…
This is GOD tier Star Wars video
Thank you!!
How are you this underrated!? Every single one of your videos has been phenomenal , keep up the amazing work!
Will do, thank you for watching 😃
The writing, the editing, it's all just *chef's kiss* perfection. Another amazing video, and well worth the wait. (Also, I would seriously watch that little music video on its own, it's so good).
Also, just wanted to add that I'm incredibly grateful that your channel is one of the few places on the Internet that consistently discuses Star Wars in a way that doesn't give me terrible anxiety. I greatly appreciate it.
As someone who also feels anxiety from some of those toxic spaces, it is VERY important to me that I facilitate a environment with my videos that is positive and inclusive, but still intellectual and still engaged with the material. So I'm happy to know you find some of that here. Thanks for checking out the video 🤍
I already loved the Mandalorian series, but this video brought out aspects I hadn't recognised before, which made me appreciate the series even more. I love the way you draw meaning from this series in such an insightful and relevant way.
The parallel between IG-11 and Mando was something I never considered, and you definitely tugged my heart by saying over the music from the scene where Grogu flicked the fireball...and I'm gonna go cry for a minute.
This documentary is worthy to be on the landing page of Disney+. Excellent job dude!! This deserves way more attention!
The Mandalorian was the breath of fresh air star wars needed, it was the family story set in spectacular fashion that made the original trilogy such a hit
This man is really out here making the absolute most top tier Star Wars video essay content out here. Just binged through all three clone Wars episodes, the rebels one, the bad batch one, and now this one. If there were Emmy's for UA-cam, this would be a shoo-in
Din Djarin for me, is one of the best characters to have come out of star wars.
Great vid btw
I agree!! And thank you!
Parkes, I don't know if you'll see this but I wanted to tell you that your videos were a huge part of the inspiration to start creating my own long-form essays. Your work is incredible and this video is your best yet. Truly some of the best video essay / documentary content on the entire internet. You seriously deserve all your success.
I just pledged to the $1 tier on patreon :)
That's very kind of you. Thank you. And thank you for your thoughts here. Would love to see what you've done with some of your videos 😃
You should ALREADY have had 200k+ subs by now. It's an insult to your skill and ethic for people to not know or not appreciate your work. Big kudos, Arr. ✊👊💪♥️🖤
Your documentaries (far more than a youtube vid) are probably some of the best produced, written an edited on all of UA-cam. The time, effort an passion shows through and they are a joy to watch. 2 hours doesn't feel like a long watch at all tbh. I hope you keep doing them and you start to get the views and subscribers this work truly deserves.
As a huge, huge huge huge Star Wars Fan. I learned more in the first 2 minutes of this video (throwbacks of the old samurai/western films and similarities to Star Wars Ep 4) then I have ever.. Instant subbed, liked, favourited, and I still have another 2 hours to go.. Legend.
Been waiting months for this and wait was well worth it. Well done, man. Each one better than the last.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks man!!
Parkes you NEVER cease to amaze me. INCREDIBLELY spent two hours
😁😁😁
It's 11 pm and I am about to watch a 2 hour documentary about the Mandalorian. I see no problem with this.
18 mins in and this is beautiful. Almost brought me to tears.
This Is The Way
I wasn’t expecting this kind of analysis of my favorite TV show. What a wonderful surprise! It may have been “fourth months in the making,” but you succeeded in making My Day! Thank you!
This examination of Din's journey made me cry at more than 5 points.
You went far into the western and samurai stories I had heard of, and brought out what he must've been feeling.
You also made a connection to the cameos, that made sense to the story, not just with the connections I was familiar with.
I liked the show already, but i was getting burned out on Star Wars.
I never felt the depth of what he went through until you brought it up and the fact that fate was demanding more and more of him, despite him being tired, to make him _balanced_ as all in Star Wars must push toward.
This is the kind of character examination I love hearing.
Thank you.
This, THIS is just what i needed right before the next season of Mando. Your video is a beautiful summary of everything that makes The Mandalorian so great. You're underrated as hell, man.
Thank you 🤝Very excited for Mando Season 3!!
I'm only 24 minutes in and I've got chills and have teared up. Phenomenal work, this is your best yet, ArTorr.
I watched this whole thing in one sitting while marathoning an art piece. It's so so good. You really *get* Star Wars, and why people love it. I enjoyed learning more about the behind-the-scenes and the historical context of where Star Wars comes from with the Samurai and the Western. This was such a joy. Now to go back and watch everything else you've made!
some of the greatest pieces of media I've ever watched on this platform, always a pleasure to watch these videos!
Bro made a tv documentary by himself and doubled the time(and even better editing and analyzing)
This was the most excellent retrospective of the Mandolin made to date . It’s an amazing collection and a pure delight . I’m sure I speak for many when I say we look forward to your future endeavors
Many thanks!!
I have some friends and family that haven't seen The Mandalorian. They really want to get into it and they're always asking me a ton of questions about...
well, all of it. As one might assume, if they haven't seen Mando, then they probably aren't huge fans of Star Wars in general. So I get asked all kinds of questions about the entire galaxy... all the time.
NOW, I can send them this! This video essay is simply superb. The way "Artorr" is able to take subtext, subplot, overall themes, etc.. and juxtapose them with the inspiration for Star Wars and even mix in some of his own style and inspiration and love for this galaxy far, far away.. is inspirational itself.
I rarely will watch the entirety of long form essays like this on YT but, I've become a real fan of this guy's work. 🙏
Seriously one of the best essays I've watched in a gooood while!! WELL DONE. I can't imagine how long this must have taken to make
This is exceptional. Truly beautiful.
I'm at a loss for words, and I'm very rarely left speechless. An absolute must watch.
The scripting, the musical composition, the in-depth analysis and editing of this is nothing short of a masterclass. Magnificent.
Thank you!!
Wizard
This is possibly the best 2hrs of SW related content on UA-cam right now.
Edit: I'm only 25 minutes in and I'm blown away. Your writing has improved so much (not that was ever bad mind you) that it's honestly as good or better than really good TV documentaries. Also we gotta acknowledge the editing. Holy smokes the opening sequence sets the viewer up to expect a high level of quality and attention to detail which amps up the dialog all the more. The music and video clips work great but then you added sound effects on top of all that for sword clashes and blasters etc.. Absolutely great
I appreciate all your thoughts. I put a lot of time and consideration into every minute of the video, so to have that recognized means a lot! 🤍
Thank you for this. Beautiful, beautiful video. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to hear someone speak positively about modern day Star Wars for a change. There may be a lot that the Disney era doesn’t get right, but man, there is so much more that I feel adds to the lore and world building of the Galaxy Far Far Away that we all love and people don’t give it nearly enough credit.
Couldn't agree more. Thank you for your thoughts, and thanks for tuning in!
By far the best Star Wars related video I've ever seen. Absolutely engrossing. You, sir, have a gift.
1:39:24 "Din Djarin fights a battle not of Mandalorian glory, but of protecting Grogu."
In Mandalorian creed, "children are the future". Din is fighting to protect the future. And that makes his 'claim' on the Darksaber, on the leadership of a dying culture and people, feel so right. He's fighting for a worthy cause that can guide the scattered and lost remnants of his people on a better, united Way😢
GREAT connection 👏
This just goes to show how much Lucas and his people put a lot of heart and soul into the original Star Wars!
You always make amazing videos, this one is just as awesome, thank you, and keep up the great work!
This is legitimately one of the absolute best Star Wars video essays I've ever seen, from the building and revelation of themes, to the comparisons to other media I had seldom considered in relation Star Wars, to the outstanding editing of this (seriously, where did you learn to edit? lol), every part of it was well thought, well spoken, and well done. Thank you for your stellar work, and I will be sticking around to see what comes next. Thank you for making your own lasting impression on me, and for helping celebrate the good things of such a personally important and culturally enduring story.
These Star Wars videos are some of the best on the subject and provide a great insight into the inspiration for the show. The editing is also amazing and truly ties the whole thing together. Not sure if you do it yourself or pay someone but keep up the good work!
I do all the writing and all the editing 🙂 Thanks for checking this out!!
Loved how you used Kreia’s quote for the Part 6 intro. Its interesting how so many of her quotes apply so well to many different events.
ArTorr is an incredibly gifted filmmaker! Great documentary!
Thank you!!
Thank you ArTorr. You encapsulate all my feelings and emotions when watching these shows. You put it in words where I could never.
Your videos, editing, narration, time and effort are above any production I have ever seen. Looking forward to your future content, so glad I stumbled across your channel.
Bring on the Mass Effect 3 video.
I appreciate all these thoughts brother, thank you. And stay tuned 😎
Talking about "the ectasy of gold", I just had "the ecstasy of beskar" while watching this. LOOOVE your disection of the "The Jedi", so amazing, especially when you said that the final battle was essentially "Yojimbo" happening in one room, while the western remake "a fistful of dollars" happened in the other, that was soooo good and I can say that's exactly how I have described that scene to my friends: a samurai duel meanwhile a cowboy stand off is having place just at the other side of a wall
The Jedi is my favorite episode of the show, was very excited to get into the visuals of that episode :)
The amount of care and effort you put in each video is crazy
This is so far my favorite video essay from you the editing, music, even the way you describe and analyze everything is like a narrator telling the tale of an epic quest thank you so much!
This is your father- awesome job obi son !!!! very good content, and a insightful conclusion Well done Parkes I already passed the word around
This video was so sick!! Thanks for working so hard on the content you make, it’s truly top tier
Always! Thank you for checking this out! 🤟
@@ArTorrPresents my pleasure man. I’m now on my third watch through, and it’s just as fresh as my first time watching. Can’t wait for your next video!
Dude this is like the best video ever. You are one talented dude. Keep up the amazing stuff
Thank you!!
Wow, I am so impressed by someone so young grasping the realities of life. Also by how informed and professional this documentary was made. You sir I believe has a bright and incredible future ahead of you. You have made a great documentary about a show but also about what it is to be human. Congratulations
This is truly brilliant, well thought out and insightful, it is obvious you put a lot of love into this. Certain youtubers who have made a living from trying to destroy Star Wars, even though they know very little about it, should take note. Well done Sir.
Can you PLEASE expand on this with a second video covering The Book of Boba Fett and season 3 of The Mandalorian???
My entire clan and I would be forever bound to serve for such a blessing from The Maker.
This is truly two hours well spent. The weaving of the Hero’s Journey from the start of the Mandalorian saga and lore to the real life asphalt of the open road that we have all travelled the last few years is spectacularly done. I found myself emotional at times as I remembered my own past as a scrawny nine year old in a movie theater in ’77 and how my life has played out over the last 45 years. This is truly the heart of what it means to be a fan of this franchise and the subtle lessons that are passed to the viewer in its undertakings. Your love of it comes through over and over again as the two hours pass by quite quickly and I found myself wanting more as the credits and end message arrived. Thank you for this one! I look forward to further exploring the rest of your channel and wish you well in all your future endeavors. MTFBWY… always!
I swear, everytime I see one of your videos, I'm genuinely inspired by the end, I feel like I can take on the whole world and rewatch these shows with newfound knowledge and appreciation. Words cannot describe the good that you are doing just by making these videos and I hope that you garner a titanic audience someday because this is something that is truly needed in our seamingly bleak and hopeless world.
This is incredible work, thanks for putting in the time and effort to deliver such a great video!
You are an absolute legend and definitely deserve more subs!
The love and effort you put into these essays is outstanding, and the video editing is entertaining and cleverly emphasises parts of what you're actually saying. I will always, happily, come back to your channel, regardless of the wait between videos.
this has to be one of the best video essay videos on star wars I have ever seen. Please keep doing this.
Man this is the best mandalorian retrospective I have ever watched on UA-cam and I've seen pretty much all of them. Kudos and many thanks: this is the way
Thank you, I don't take this lightly. This IS the way!!!
I had the place to myself and spent the last few days playing your entire back catalog on the TV in my office. All the stuff you made gives me many warm feelings in my heart ❤. I wish I could tell everybody I know about your channel, but I don't know a lot of people 😢. By any chance do you have content on nebula? Your material is a lot better than a lot of the stuff that's up there, they'd be lucky to have you on their platform
Yesss another world class video from the big man. I love all the vids you do. I’d love to see you do something like this for KOTOR one day.
I would LOVE to do a KOTOR video!
Being someone who’s about to move away to college this really resonates with me. This video is my favorite of yours so far and certainly hits an emotional chord with me
This was incredible. The effort and obvious love for this franchise and show you put into this video was really spectacular.
Each time you drop a new video, it becomes the best part of my week. Nailed it yet again and I love the distillation of all the things that made me love this show. Well worth the wait, and I can’t wait for your next one and all in the future!
Thank you for checking this out then. Stay tuned!! 😎
only reason my generation made Boba Fet so popular, was that tiny rocket launcher, the action figure had as a gadget. I guess that fact eluded Disney's marketing department.
Congrats on getting the video to the finish line! You've proven yet again that your videos are exceptionally well put together, and are essential companion pieces to Star Wars media. I hope you continue to receive all the recognition you rightly deserve.
Thank you! And boy, was I glad to reach the finish line with this out 😅 I appreciate your thoughts!
This was really beautifully edited. Absoultly spectacular, and so well done. Thank you for making it and sharing it. Bravo!
No wonder this took so long. 2 hours of peak content
It’s been a few months since I’ve watched or engaged with your content, stuff gets away from you, you know how life be sometimes, but I enjoyed every minute of this 2 hour long odyssey. You can tell how much time and care went into crafting this video and it’s just a joy to experience. Glad to see your still doing well and making great stuff. Keep up the great work Parkes!
Thanks brother. And thank you for following the channel over all this time. More to come 🙌
This was absolutely a MAGNIFICENT labor of love, a tribute to a wonderful legacy, and a remarkable documentary exhibiting the history and the careful nurturing on a fabulous franchise that many of us acknowledge as the BEST sci-fi genre.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for your efforts and all the time that you put into this exceptional video.
You are most welcome. Glad it resonated with you!!
Expertly written. Artistically edited. Video had me riveted to my seat and completely engaged! Fantastic work! Thank you for this!
Your work is always incredible, you give an incredible perspective to the different products that really benefits them.
So well done! By far the best doc I've seen on Mando! I enjoyed every second of this!
Thank you!!
Truly you're work is amazing, from editing to sound and writing every portion is so professional or could be taken as being bonus content from a DVD. Keep up the excellence
You're amazing man. One of the few people on this website who will make me wish the video would go on just another hour more. Your editing and storytelling talent is truly something to aspire to.
Another masterpiece. Loved all the music selections.
Thank you!!
