*** SPOILERS ***<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OMG OMG OMG, The Mandalorian is such an amazing series. It’s hard to belive that it’s been almost a year since we’ve received a new episode…but here it was…and BOOM right out of the gate we get another 10\/10 episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*** SPOILERS ***<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we were gifted the Star Wards trifecta..in ONE episode of The Mandalorian. As I just told my wife…I’m screaming with happiness inside. There are literally fireworks in my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Growing up and moving around so much, I really attached myself to reading. The Star Wars books were my thing, the comics were my tomes. I am literally SCREAMING inside wanting to tell everyone about this episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can’t…because…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So episode review…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. We return to Tattooine and get the classic “starship flying by a bantha” <\/li>
  2. Peli Motto has R5 aka “RED” (R5D4). The droid that had it’s motivator malfunction (or if you read the books…you know it did this on purpose). It still bears the scars from it’s experience (ref.book<\/strong>->From a Certain Point of View).<\/li>
  3. We meet “The Marshall” (Cobb Vanth), and get a backstory that “kind of” matches what has already been written (ref. book<\/strong> -> Aftermath). We also learn how he came across the armor of Boba Fett.<\/li>
  4. We finally see a Krayt Dragon (no relation to the planet Crait), what I can only imagine is (thus far at least) the biggest and scariest monster in Star Wars (at least to date). How scary? We learn that they eat Sarlacc’s.<\/li>
  5. The “Sand People” are back. I love that they have a relationship with Din Djarin that they seem to have with no one else.<\/li>
  6. Anytime we see a Mandalorian I get giddy, but to see them in action…it always an awesome episode…to watch the Sand People, the Mandalorian, The Marshall and the village work together was pretty awesome.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    BUT THEN…there was the ending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Stick around for the final 2 minutes…and you’ll see that they are being watched by a very scarred Temuera Morrison…the actor that played Jango Fett in the prequels. We know that Jango is dead…and the only other clone that could be on Tattoine would be BOBA FETT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    That’s right. We just learned that after 30 years of hoping…Boba Fett is alive and well. That we saw him at the end, and we haven’t see Jin Djarin leave the planet yet…makes me wonder if Boba Fett will make an attempt to recover his armor in the next episode?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Time will indeed tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
