#Mandalorian #Episode7 #EasterEggs
We’re going to break down this episode, and talk a little bit about what’s next for Din Djarin and Din Grogu. So let's dive in, shall we?
So, the episode begins with Bo Katan leading the mandalorians on an escape through the tunnels, with axe wolves flying above the clouds to hunt the fleet. Now the last episode was called “Spies,” leading to some rampant online speculation about who these spies actually were. We were part of that speculation. All episode long we were waiting for someone to turn on the group-the armorer, Axe Wolves, the refugees-and it turns out the real spies were the friends we made along the way.
Doug: Seriously, who were the spies?
I guess the imperials who were living on mandalore? It’s a little wonky.
Doug: Should have picked a different title.
Should have picked a different title [high five].
There is a lot of fighting in corridors in this episode, and this is for a couple of reasons. One, it’s awesome and a lot of fun. Hallways compress the action into one narrow space and place the heroes in a do or die situation. It’s why his fights have become all the rage in TV shows.
But also, hallways are cheap to film in. In this show, and in Obi Wan, they filmed a lot on the volume, a 360 AR environment, which means it's easier to keep the environment in a tighter space [part in obi wan with caverns ep 5-6). Of course later in the episode the action explores outwards, which I’ll talk about in just a bit. Bo Katan uses the narrow hallway to set traps for the beskar-wearing troops, and you know what-these troops may be wearing beskar, but they still fight like the good old incompetent, cannon-fodder stormtroopers.
Over the years, Star wars has introduced troops that are better fighters. The death troopers that escorted moff gideon in season 1, and the sith purge troopers we see in Fallen order and obi-wan. Those troopers were trained to fight Jedi, so they are incredibly badass.
Doug: Maybe these troopers are really good fighters, but the mandalorians are just better.
That’s a good point. Later , Din barely takes them down, where he made mincemeat out of regular troopers in episode 3,
So back to the troopers, it is kind of lame that they only place two guards on Din. or at least, it’s very arrogant of them to think 2 would be enough. When he tries to break free, the dark troopers unload mandalorian weapons on him, like the grappling cables and flame throwers. Now their weapons were originally created to fight Jedi. a jedi could predict and dodge a blaster bolt, but a flame thrower creates a wide attack they have a harder time escaping from, while the grappling cable ties up their hands and neutralizes their lightsabers.
But these weapons also work well against mandalorians. The armor doesn't cover their necks, so the cable can choke them.
Doug: Why doesn’t the armor cover their necks?
Because if it did they couldn’t turn their heads and they would move like michael keaton’s batman.
Doug: Ah I see.
And the flame throwers will super heat the beskar until they can;t stay inside of it. Like what Killian did to Rhodey in Iron man 3. We also saw in Star Wars Rebels that Beskar is vulnerable to certain types of heat and energy wavelengths that can completely fry the metal and anyone inside it.
My favorite part of this fight is when Din neutralizes this guy, but uses his flamethrower to attack the other trooper. But then, grogu is the one who saves din [no no no]. This season has brought these two full circle in season 1, din saved grogu from the imperials in season 2, din saved grogu form the imperials. In the book of boba fett, din saved grogu from a life of celibacy.
And in this season, grgu has saved din;s life twice. Kind of reminds me of the life debt that chewbacca owed Han…
Doug: or that Jar-Jar owed to qui-gon. - Фільми й анімація

Overpriced af jeez...
Yea, doesn't work. Error 404
It's two of the lil mouse droids that fall off but big whoop, you got hella easter eggs today we'll let it slide lol
Was I'm an independent contractor a movie quote? It sounded so familiar.
Maybe I'm imagining it, but after Din says that he will adopt Grogu as his own, the way the Armorer said "This... is the way" had a sound like "Finally you're getting it", as if she had been waiting the whole time for him to say it. Really liked that.
I thought the same thing. It was like "about damn time"
Yes! I thought this too!! It made me tear up! The way she said that whole thing was totally a hint to Din!
I think the Armorer is his adoptive mother.
exactly
Yes! I had that thought too.
I spent my whole day being asked if Din dies in this episode... and spent the whole day replying "No he just went to a Small farm where he can be happy"... and to be honest it made my day
To be fair, "He went to a farm upstate where he can run all day and be happy" usually means something else...
@@CantankerousDave You could also say "He bought the farm" and be technically correct as well.
Although I like how your take implies you want to soften the blow without really saying what happened.
Just like thanos after he snap the dam finger
@@CantankerousDavethat's the joke
Pretty sure he’s got a future in golf.
Ryan has the best takes on UA-cam. He doesn’t hate on things he just points out what worked and what didn’t work. I also appreciate he doesn’t swear, my kids can watch his content! Great stuff guys, keep it up!
Agreed! I don’t mind hearing what does and doesn’t work, but the channels with the vile hatred towards this stuff is a turnoff.
Love screencrush, Ryan and of course Doug. 😊
...because Star Wars
He’s got a pretty poor opinion about Gina Carano that he likes to often share.
@@twentyoneplusvideo0472 agreed, this is the way!
He also points the finger at the shoemakers because he overlooked the clear indication that Elia Kane was the spy
The real spies actually were the friends we made along the way - it's likely "The Spies" is actually a reference to the 12 spies Moses sends into the promised land to determine if it is safe, and so the Mandalorians were the spies all along. So, it's actually a really clever double meaning (regarding to both Elia/the Imperials, and the Mando scouts).
And similarly, since so many had given up hope of ever retaking their home, they were "condemned to wander" before they were worthy. I saw this mentioned in a watch video and loved the idea of it. And it totally works with the themes of the season.
Bingo, Lisamarie!!
That’s a great pull. The spies, as described in the book Numbers, were volunteers from each tribe of Israel tasked with scouting the land for settlement. Just like each Mandalorian tribe provided volunteers to secure the land of Mandalore for its people.
That’s so ultra deep
Wow, thank you for sharing. That’s fantastic.
I really enjoyed the image of Mando sitting on his front porch with grogu playing in the yard it felt like that he finally got what he had been searching for.
BE CAREFUL OF THAT BREAR BEAR NAWW
mando can finally rest in a grateful universe
Or masturbate in peace
with that frog flipping around mid air by Grogu...
It was cute
The Mythosaur's eye opening was in response to grogu reaching out through the force. We see grogu reach his hand out ,and concentrate before it transition to the Mythosaur shot I'm pretty sure they are suggesting that grogu is going to be the next Tarre vizsla.
Such a disappointing Mythosaur so far
What exactly were you expecting it to do? lol
Grogu forging a new darksaber icon would be interesting, but we shall see.
God I hope not
The Dark Saber was conveniently destroyed so a new tiny version can be constructed of its parts.
I totally missed that but it sure makes sense and I love it!
Din's fight through the hallway with the red blast shields on his way to Gideon felt very video game-like in the best way, with him starting without weapons, then upgrading from each pair of enemies, culminating in the boss fight. I loved it!
I’ve noticed that he was proficient with the weapon right away, showing how as a skilled Mandalorian, the weapons are truly part of your religious practice.
kinda like...joel miller
@@elmo8328 nice one!
just played a part of fallen order where it was something super similar, not shields but like 4 differant platforms one after another with 2 troopers each
I still find it funny how Din adopted someone older than him.
Yeah he’s been alive longer but the difference is he’s still a child for his species while djarin is an adult but you alr knew that
With all the trouble in our real world, it was just nice to have a happy ending for a change.
Agreed ✓
Exactly my thoughts!
Yes! Exactly. It came as such a relief, as I’d been expecting the worst.
Thankfully! We indeed needed that happy sweet ending.
Agreed!!
One thing I noticed was that when Paz Visla's kid was taking the creed by the living Waters the armourer didn't mention never removing his helmet, could show how they want to minimise their differences in future seasons
Could just be lazy writing lol
@@ManiSingh-yd9dh nah I don't think so
Or maybe now that they have access to the Living Water freely again, even if they do lift their helmets, they can just come and be “reborn” again. But no, that’s not how a real baptism work.
@@ManiSingh-yd9dh Most likely. I've completely lost interest in The Mandalorian. As far as I am concerned it ended and I don't care if Season 4 gets cancelled. Andor is where it is at for me now, and hopefully Ahsoka won't be done dirty by KK as The Mandalorian was.
That’s because he took the creed already when he received his helmet a few episodes ago. What we saw at the end was more of a “dedication” ceremony.
I had goosebumps when Bo'Katan drew the dark saber while flying with all those Mandalorians. Truly epic!
I also loved the ending. I'm happy that Din Djarin can have a moment of peace with Grogu
I had heard so many rumors about Pedro Pascal leaving that I was honestly dreading this episode. But it couldn’t have been better. I love the idea of a reset, where we we back to the heart of the show - Din and Grogu working together and taking on the galaxy in new adventures.
Michelle, I have to respectfully disagree. Din never took his helmet off this season and that had to have irked Pedro Pascal.
Coming off the red hot Last of Us series, PP is the star of the moment and straght voice work probably doesn't appeal to him at this high point in his career. I doubt we'll see/hear him in anything other than the Filoni movie.
Also, the Dins going off on side quests was, for me, the weakest aspect of this and all Mando seasons - I personally do not need an entire season of random missions.
The Dins are chilling at Hacienda Navarro - let's leave them be...until the galaxy is in peril again!
The ending scene is pretty obviously a western based ending with the homestead, trusty stead by the house, enjoying the land, chilling on the porch.
I think what makes it even better is if you look closely at Din while hes chatting with Greef, he's still rocking the dual pistols from the imperials, no side holster, and at least from what I could see it doesnt look like he has his vambrace weapons, at least the whistling bird launcher is missing. So he's just a basic gunslinger now, no fancy gadgets, no darksabre.
I loved the sound effects they put on Din's blasters, especially during his fight with Gideon, they added a certain gunshot quality that made them sound extra powerful
The rails in front of his house looked like horse hitching rails, only shorter
I can't believe after all his contributions to retaking the planet, that he left the next day without the armorer happily replenishing his weapons.
I instantly thought nice mando gets a traditional fast and the furious ending with the badass cars parked out front and of course FAMILY
@@cpl.serpent494 THIS IS THE WAY DAMMIT
I actually really liked the twist that gidon was cloning himself not everything has to be connected to the sequel trilogy sometimes a imperial warlord can just be in it for himself
But the cloning WAS for Palpatine. Hux Sr called it Project Necromancer. Gideon just used Pershings work on himself.
@@deadpatronus yeah to build his own empire
Oh wow yeah it was so original (sarcasm)
@@MC-BOT never said anything about it being original just that it's nice not to have connected to the sequels
@@jacobpickens2283 but it is connected to the sequal lol did u miss those scientists who were actually setting up for the cloning of the emperor?
If you look very closely, its actually TWO mouse droids plummeting towards their demise :O That might just be the saddest, scariest deaths in the entire season.... SO cruel, rest in pieces, little ones 😢
LoL i noticed them too
I saw that 2
I cannot believe they turned them into police droids. With little sirens. Exactly like a cop car on planet Earth. But we're not ON planet Earth, are we?!? This is a different freaking universe. I hate it when they try to link directly to what we're familiar with instead of reimagining and creating. It's lazy.
@@therealking6202 Bet you're fun at parties 🤣
@Dana White's Cocaine Dealer Agreed.
But this time Grogu was still awake after stopping the fire, it exhausted him but not as much as before, showing that it he is getting stronger and more use to using stronger Force abilities.
During the ceremony at the end, the armorer did not say you must never remove your helmet like she did the first time
That's a good catch.
Just because there are two paths does not mean they don't end up in the same place at the end. This is the way.
I believe the spies episode title from the last episode refers to spies in a different sense. I believe it is a reference to the Twelve Spies recorded in the Biblical book of Numbers who were tasked with scouting the Promised Land, much in the same way Bo-Katan and a subset of the Mandalorians were doing in that episode on Mandalore.
I thought the exact same thing!
nailed it
Nice!!
OMG! Former bible student. THIS makes sense!!
Good theory. I'm impressed
Did anyone else notice that the Mandalorian's jet packs had a limited range in the earlier episode, but they seemed to last forever in this one?
When they're chasing after the dragon-saur, there is a scene cut, transition wipe. It's hard to discern exactly how far they've traveled before running out of fuel.
I love how the darksaber has been built to be this larger than life weapon and they break it easily showing how legends tend to over-inflate reality
A symbol should never become more important than what it is supposed to represent.
@@dreamlandnightmare Excellent observation!
I felt that the circle closed on Grogu, showing him not eating the Frog...he actually dropped it back into the water. That's what I took from that scene.
Didn't think of it that way, he's starting to respect life I guess haha
It's called fishing rules. You throw it back until it's bigger. THEN you eat it.
@@crewchief5144 😆
In an early episode, the Mandalorians' jetpacks didn't have enough fuel to chase the giant creature that snatched away the boy, but in this one it was possible to fly up into orbit and then back down and engage in a pretty long dogfight with flying dark troopers. Hmmm...
I did wonder about that too. It could be that the Axe's troopers had more fuel or that the edge of space is closer than their chase was long...
Whatever, bugged me too.
I think in the other episode they traveled for many hours. Axe wolves flew in less time
Those Mandalorians were living on a barren world, barely scraping by. They probably didn't have a lot of jet pack fuel to go around. They probably all refueled when they all met up with the other Mandalorians.
Agreed
@@cocopuffs1013 Yeah this was my impression too
The leveling up Din fight scene was awesome. I really liked the added touch of him trying to reach for the knife from the first guy before he fell off the side
I loved that bit, too. So perfect the way he tries to grab it and is clearly like “crap!” when the trooper falls away before he can.
I thought it was a blaster 💥 🔫
The reason the Armourer uses her tools in the fight is because they are made of Beskar and only Beskar can damage Beskar hence why she uses it to create armour but also to fight the Beskar armour wielding troopers.
She used them to fight earlier in this season iirc
Theory time! In A New Hope, when R2D2 was captured by the Jawas, they removed his jet packs that we saw him have in the prequels.
And when R5D4's motivator blew up they fixed that and also decided to give him an upgrade with those jet boosters. 😊
lol i like it!
😮
new head canon
Totally works!
I was thinking about that as I watched this scene. These are astromech droids, they spend a lot of time directly exposed to space so OF COURSE they all have rockets to move themselves if they get separated from their ship. And as I typed this I recalled the D Squad episodes of the Clone Wars and the scene in Phantom Menace where these droids are shown crawling along the outside of various ships making repairs and fighting bad guys.
Grogu also showed growth in his powers. He didn’t get as tired after using significant power to fight and hold back the flame.
yeah we heard the music during that scene .. same one when Luke trained him. he has more power for sure still learning
@Scott Chenworth I had the same reference in mind as I saw that scene.
I liked that as well.
Also, at the end when he was levitating the frog, it wasn't to eat it, like when he was with Luke, but basically just practicing his powers (or playing around cause he's a kid still).
@@anthonyfry567 You’re in my head lol
I just want to say thank you to everyone who helps with the great video production . I really enjoy this channel and find that you cover new things and not repeating things for click bait
“The real spies were the friends we made along the way.” This has to be my favorite reoccurring joke of all time. 🤣 I laugh EVERY time. Well done sir.
The scenes of the armorer fighting mid-air with her hammer and tongs were some of my favorites in this episode! I'm a curator and author with expertise in armor and medieval martial history, and seeing her strike troopers with her hammer as she flew past immediately recalled the use of war hammers of similar shape and scale by mounted knights in the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. Hammers were quite effective against armored opponents since they relied on percussive impact, rather than cutting blades. They were so favored by riders for use while galloping through battle that they became widely known as "horseman's hammers." The Mandalorian armorer translates medieval fighting strategies from horseback to jet pack!
Thank you for your input. This is exactly the kind of info we like to see ☺
Keep your Weapons Child. ⚒️ This is all I need.
I thought the hammers were a great choice! Especially if the hammers were made of Beskar 💀
She was like Thor right there
I had the same thought. If the armor had evolved, as medieval armor had, a blunt force instrument was far deadlier than a sharp.
I loved how the dark saber is finally gone. They never needed that to unite mandalore but they needed each other.
Unite my ass, just another Woman in charge. Kathleen Kennedy in Space, nothing more.
Exactly! Love it!
The real dark saber was the friends they made along the way
Agreed!
This is the way.
I am impressed in the amount of world building this season did. Can't wait for the future. In Dave and Jon We trust!
I don't know if you noticed but moff gideons armor was also supported by some sort of mechanical movement support. If you listen closely, in a fight between moff gideon and din djarin, you can hear this robotic sound while he is moving, what explains why he was so dominating in this fight.
That wasn't Bo-Katan who used the knee rockets, it was Koska Reeves.
Edit: Also, I'm surprised you didn't pick up on Axe Woves telling Bo-Katan he's "Comin' in hot," which is a reference to her character from Battlestar Galactica, Capt. Starbuck, whose catchphrase was "Comin' in hot!"
I literally came here to say this!
She’ll always be Starbuck to me :)
@@laurenellis5333 Same.
Would've been nice to see Gideon barely surviving ,and then getting a hologram from thrawn where he abandons him ,and that being the hint for Ashoka....maybe if they made so in the shadow council meeting he kicked up more of a fuss about thrawn so he decided to shut up personally.
I was thinking that too.
But no body no death
I actually hope he's dead. Star Wars needs to learn to move on from characters, and to renovate villains from time to time. In some cases it's OK, but when every character comes back it gets old.
It was so nice to see Bo's story come full circle after all these years
The scene where Grogu holds back the flames shows how much stronger he has become, the flames were a much larger scale and he got tired but didn’t knock out he just kinda sat down
2 years with Luke and an M count in the thousands will do that to a Mf
@@breakingboundaries3950 true I’m glad they are showing us a gradual progression of his strength instead of a he’s all powerful now
I believe he is very powerful, but he is very reluctant to use his force abilities until they are absolutely necessary.
Been waiting all day for this breakdown! Love when Din Jarin stabs one guy, tries to grab the knife, but the guy falls over the ledge before he could get it out.
yeah that was such a great detail!
He fought so hard for every weapon in that scene, and seemed so desperate to save that knife! Almost heartbreaking.
I want to think that was actually accidental but they left it in the scene 🎬
“The Spies” in the previous episode refers to Bo-Katan and her scouting team who found out about Gideon’s base like the Twelve Spies who scouted the Land of Canaan, the Jewish promise land. In this case Mandalore is the Mandalorian promise land. There were also 12 (10 Mandos, Din, and Grogu) in the scouting party.
Nailed it, yet another Old Testament reference
The other obvious one is that Moses was turned away from the Promised Land. The Armorer immediately told Din to skedaddle.
mega based, thank you.
Love how Pedro's character in TLOU wanted to settle down on a farm and he does so in this series.
This is the way!
No goats tho, only frogs
Mud farming? That's Firefly universe.
Perhaps it’s Din Grogu instead of Grogu Djarin because like mando, he is a foundling instead of being born as a mandolorian. So foundlings have the name in the beginning while the other clans names are at the end when they are birthed into the culture instead of adopted.
or Din is more of an adopted title once they take the creed. We never actually know what djarins full name is before he became din djarin
The mandalorians were the spies in episode 23, spying out the promised land like Joshua and Caleb led (and united) the 12 tribes to spy out the promised land before they took it.
This finale felt like the calm before the storm
The shit storm?
The storm of bad reviews coming in
@@Rockoblocko ???? Didn't ask you lol
Yes.. Just like the end of Season 6 (and series ending) of The Expanse (all hell breaks loose in Book 7). If/when Thrawn shows up... well, there you go.
Keep drinking the copeium fan boi Star Wars is heading to the shitter why grogu leave and come back
I love the fact they kept it with mandalorians! No wild cameos, no spies, they teaching you guys to slow down a little with all the wild theories
The crystal is still intact in the dark saber. I would be surprised if Grogu doesn't use it to build his lightsaber
The air battle was some of the best action have seen in star wars period.
I thought it was interesting how Gideon told Bo Katan how mandalorians are useless without their trinkets while he is using a mech beskar suit so he can fight and was making force using clones of himself
I know! He's just a wannabe. Wannabe Mandalorian and wannabe Jedi.
Says the guy who tried to off himself when his trinkets (dark troopers) were getting WRECKED 😂
Indeed, and that suit had a few nice trinkets built in, as well as the suits of his troops.
One of my favorite things is that you always plug obscure creators or comic book writers into your videos to give them a spotlight. Sharing your platform with others has led me down a lot of rabbit holes which is my favorite part of your videos! You’re an awesome dude, and awesome channel!
I also find it poetic in a way that the explosion that killed Gideon was from his light cruiser.
Giddeons, "no I will take care of him myself" was pretty awesome. It reminded me of vader from the Kenobi series and his powerful one-liners.
I got chills when Bo-katan pulled out the dark saber. I’m a HUGE Star Wars animation fan!
Me too! Too bad my friends can’t relate to the show because most of them weren’t a clone wars/rebels animated series fan.
same. I grew up watching every episode of the clone wars!
Strong independent woman that nobody wanted to see lol everyone wanted din to have the dark saber obviously because when he gave it to her even more people stopped watching the show
@@MC-BOT shut up
Grogu holding the explosion fire scene made me imagined the "WE ARE GROOT" scene too 🥰🙌🏽
Thank you so much for these reviews, Ryan! These help to break up the craziness of everyday life and I look forward to them so much!
There was something interesting at the end of the episode that you didn't mention. When the Armorer and Ragnar were reciting the Creed, they very noticibly left out the part about never removing his helmet. Maybe indicating that the covert are going to be willing to soften on that once strict rule in order to better coexist with the other Mandalorian sects.
Nice catch!
I noticed that too
Well Bo Katan took the creed as a child and they were never forced to keep their helmets on. Maybe now the creed is back to the old ways, and those who swore before can chose to continue to keep their helmets on
@@Collect2Disconnect The Helmet on WAS the old creed, now they're using the modified creed.
I think the darksaber being destroyed is the perfect reason for Din Grogu to build a new one out of the crystal,one that's the right size for him
Cue the disney store lineup
He’s too young to talk but he’s going to build a lightsaber? I don’t think so.
@@KevyNova Ahsoka or Ezra might build it for him
@@KevyNova in the trailer for ashoka at the end is a robot from the jedi temple that used to teach the younglings how to make lightsabers
Nobody cares tho the story is horrible more then half of the audience stopped watching
I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but the music that plays while Grogu is protecting himself, Din Djarin, and Bo-Katan is very similar to the music that plays during the burning bush scene in The Prince of Egypt.
Din using a jiu jitsu move called the Imanari roll to neutralise the trooper is one of my favourites!!
Kinda felt like this wrapped up a little too Easy ,and neat this episode would have liked a surprise or two in there but overall still a great season! Can't wait for Ahosoka!
Hats off to the hard working team at screencrush. I was happy, yet surprised, that it didn’t end with a big Ashoka tease at the end.
Thank you Ryan and the rest of the team for your entertaining and informative videos about the Mandalorian!!
Sometimes i forget Doug can't talk, I just imagine him as a dog who talks and has a whole ass personality😭
Maybe different from surnames like Kryze and Vizla, Din is a title given to those that were found and adopted when they are adopted and join The Way. Grogu was found and adopted as a Mandalorian like Djarin was rescued and adopted when he was a child.
Yes, I was thinking something like that, or his family were settlers and from somewhere else. He did tell Grogu that he was from the moon of Concordia, in Mandalorean space, but he could still be an outsider and not a natural born Mandalorean in more ways than one.
@@darthpaul99 True! Even Axe Wolfe says Din Djarin has no Mandalorian blood in his vein.
Yeah him having his surname before his name could be from his original culture.
Going along the parallels of Orthodox Judaism children and adults in religious ceremony and prayer are called incorporating their parents first names. Din Grogu would mean Grogu son of Din. Furthermore a convert with no Jewish lineage takes the name of patriarchs and matriarchs such as Abraham and Sarah.
I was also thinking it was something more like that -- Din is the first name, added as an "extra" first name label for apprentices. The show's been treating Din like a first name all along, why change now?
The mouse droid death reminded me exactly of the pre-show during Star Tours where a mouse droid falls off a ledge while the ship is getting ready for boarding.
Great catch!
I want you to know that I am deeply thankful and appreciate the work that you do. It’s gotta be a bear of task making these videos with the turnarounds you have. I’m honestly astounded at how much content you’re able to pump out.
I love the shoutouts to the whole screencrush team! These videos are definitely part of the viewing experience when watching new episodes 🎉
Din taking 3 Praetorian guards with the help of Grogu is so bad-ass.
Thank you all for your Mando S3 analysis! :) loved the shoutout to the whole team at the end! always asked that myself how many work on this channel, to make it that special
This has become my favorite UA-cam series, thank you for all you do Ryan and Doug!
IMO SC always provide the best Easter Eggs for the Mandalorian shows. Kudos to Ryan, Dawg and the crews, you guys are awesome! But not immediate//emergency awesome :D :D😂😂
Best part of the day, new Screen Crush video.
Maybe “the spies” was in reference to the 12 spies sent out by the Israelites to spy out the promised land. Still a stretch but would be in line with the other season titles 🤷🏻♂️
Din Grogu is such a nice name! Salute :D
This channel is the best. It's the first channel I go to, to find out little missed details on shows, movies and trailers. Thank you all
A little correction, I'm not reading through 1000 comments to see if anybody else has mentioned this, but there are actually two mouse droids that are blasted off of the ledge, you can actually see both of them going off, starts with five and there's only three left as he's blasting off.
Facts!
I loved the whole season and this finale was amazing
Glad you did the shout outs! I had no idea how many people worked on the show!! Thank you all for your hard work on the shows they are great!!
Screen crush is hands down THE BEST show/movie review/follow up content out there! Keep doin what y’all do!
Could grogu remake the dark saber via the kyber? He would then be Jedi, Mandilorian, and wield the dark saber that is no longer cursed. This would also make it mini like yoda’s
He’s too young to talk. I don’t think he’s building a saber anytime soon.
@@KevyNova why does him talking have anything to do with building or wielding a light saber ? Was Luke going to wait for the moment he started speaking in reverse to let him use yodas lightsaber or build his own. For all we know yodas species doesn’t begin to talk until they are 100’s of years old Luke woulda been dead by then
I really hope the next time we see Din Grogu he’s older, able to actually talk, has learned some mandalorian skills and is acting like a teenager (like back talking, thinking he knows better) with Din.
That would require Disney to give up their cash cow
if he is basically a 2 year old now, but is actually 50, he wont be a teenager for another... 300 years or so... I don't think Din is going to be around that long
While I can see that being cool, I personally don’t think I can work, the whole reason grogu works is because he’s mute, giving him a voice would kind of destroy the entire appeal of why everyone loves him to begin with
I hope they don't do that I like him being a baby, I think it's a good contrast for the show, a warrior in armor and a child.
@@jordan89124 species age differently. they explained that first episode of the series. we don’t really know how he ages exactly
I've been following your content for a couple of years now... That puppy makes it even more fun to watch! Keep it up!🎉
I think it’s interesting that it’s the armorer who always gives the path for din, she is the one that makes him go after grogu in the first season after he had delivered him, then in the second season she is the one who tells din that he needs to find the jedis, and now again is she who tells him that they need to go in adventures across the galaxy.
I enjoyed this season but that ending made it feel like the ending of a series rather than a finale to a season
Agreed. Especially without a stinger to set up what's up next for this era. I hope it's only because they just showed the Rebels season 5 (Ahsoka) trailer so recently.
No stinger and the iris shot confirms for me that the series is over
Ya I agree, It did feel more like a series finale, then a season finale. Hope I`m wrong and we get a Season 4. Guess will see
while i would be sad if they didn’t do another season, tbh this was a very good ending. it completed all the past story archs of the last 2 seasons and it didn’t kill off anybody i liked. i wouldn’t be mad if this is how it ended.
but i watched this with my mom, who pointed out that disney likes making $, and grogu did that and they won’t give it up.
Well obviously they are ending it, they messed up the whole show and more then 60% of their audience left, even the main actor wants to leave
Actually Bo Katan saw the Din/Grogu/Moff Gideon situation form above as she was fighting, and it's shown before she comes to help.
Watch it again!!
Great breakdown as always, but major props for giving some screen time and recognition to the folks we don’t always get to see who still contribute to these great breakdowns.
Thank you so much for all your hard work! It’s great to watch these videos after every episode. Keep up the good work!
There were 2 mouse droids that fell off the ledge when r5 took off not just one. Just thought I'd point that out

THANKS for your work this season, Doug, Ryan and the ScreenCrush staff and interns!!! Also, thanks for telling me about Peter David, one of my favorite comicbook writers. I donated when you mentioned his plight the first time.
Thank you ScreenCrush for your amazing commentary and Easter Egg videos. I would watch them after every episode! Now I refer to you guys when watching anything sci-fi that I want to look further into! Definitely a fan!
I actually found this channel trying to make sense of Rings of Power lol. But ever since then I have loved your insights. Pretty much immediately after every episode of Mando, Andor, RoP, and Bad Batch I've gone straight to ScreenCrush to get a closer look and see the discussion around the shows. Thanks so much for your balanced, thoughtful, and insightful videos!
What did you think of the episode? Of the season?
It was brilliant, loved every aspect of it. It made me feel like a kid again.
i stan the Imperials so i sads
Favorite season, solid episode. I love the Armorer and so glad that they didn't assassinate her character by making her a traitor.
Very happy with how it ended. I was afraid they would have ruined it. Needless to say I was on the edge of my seat, afraid they were going to kill Din off.
Terrible.
Thanks for a great season! You guys are awesome! Your videos are so informative, fun and positive! I hope you keep it up for Ahsoka and subsequent SW series!
You the best of the best Ryan. I like Screen Crush breakdowns especially of Star Wars, more than any other channel's because you talk like a genuine fan always. Keep up the good work.
This episode was really good. Not what I expected/wanted, but still really good.
I think maybe the spies was a reference to the scout patrol that went to check the surface. You talked before about the parallels between the Children of the Watch and ultra Orthodox Judaism. This small group could be like the spies that were sent into the promised land to report back to Moses (Numbers chapter 13)
Thank you for always digging deep into Star Wars!!!
Thank you for all your work Screen Crush!
Thank you ScreenCrush. Some of my kids like watching your channel more than the actual Mando episodes and it's neat seeing them get so excited to see all the Easter eggs. Your team is awesome! You bring joy to so many people. Mahalo nui loa!
I must say that Screen Crush goes into more detail than any other Star Wars review channel. Great work! Love how the stories interweave on multiple series.
And doesn't go in insanely far fetching theories.
Maybe Gideon was a mandelorian who followed Maul, which is where he got the idea for the security hallway that resembled the hallway from Naboo?
Big thanks to all the team, love your vids 👏🏻
