Owlbear Camus posted:I'm not sure it's going to be relevant to the thrust of the story, but I'm also curious about the guys they had to blast through to get to Babby Yoda. The Guide implied they'd been dug in for a while, probably years at least, and repelled every hunter to make a run at them. Kidnappers? Religious Zealots? Hired guards and caretakers? The Reveal certainly re-contextualizes how you look at them in retrospect from probable ne'er do wells to possible righteous baby defenders. Don't know why they would be protecting the baby, though. Maybe they didn't want to kill a child and were keeping it isolated so it couldn't escape into the galaxy to cause trouble later on?

Noirex posted:You're right, think it's a tracking fob. They were the same Trandoshans who were eavesdropping on him and Carl Weathers in the first episode, so they probably just followed him until they could ambush him after he did all the hard work.

Also, the big Mandalorian with the minigun in this episode was named Vizsla and voiced by Jon Favreau, which probably makes him a relative of the leader of the Death Watch from the Clone Wars, implying that the group of Mandalorians we see in the show were not the good guys in the Mandalorian civil wars depicted so far.

happyhippy posted:Why didn't they just sneak up on the ATST and blow it up instead of blowing something up to get its attention to lure to a trap to then blow it up?. Mando and Cara weren't planning on sticking around, which is why they trained the village to fight in the first place. They maybe could have taken the AT-ST down on their own, but that wouldn't have helped the village if the raiders retaliated after they were gone. Showing both the raiders and the villagers that they weren't defenseless was more important for their long-term safety than just blowing up a walker. That being said, it would have been nice if one of the featured villagers was the one to finish it off (like maybe the crack-shot widow could shoot the bomb after it fails to arm properly), rather than Mando and Cara doing all the work anyway.

The live action series Lucas was working on prior to selling to Disney was also experimenting with digital sets. Some test footage and BTS leaked earlier this year showing how they would have done it.

DurosKlav posted:Nothing new can ever be introduced into star wars. Since he was in the first season he has to show up again. It's hopefully just a way to show Mando's character growth. In the first season captures Blue Guy without concern for who he is or why someone's after him, and then in the second season seems to be helping him escape because he's grown beyond just doing things for money.

I'm not too concerned about Ahsoka or other Filoni characters taking over the show (if they appear at all). The plot of the season is about Mando taking Baby Yoda back to "his people", which the show has thus far stated to be the Jedi as a whole rather than just other creatures like him. We know what happens to any Jedi that end up with Luke, so whoever they intend to leave him with has to be someone that the audience trusts to keep him safe. An existing character with Ahsoka's history is going to automatically be more trustworthy than an unknown new character. And if an individual viewer doesn't know who Ahsoka is, then it makes no difference if she existed before or not. That being said, I'm expecting Mando to take Baby Yoda back from the Jedi by the end of whatever episode they're in anyway (realizing that he's grown to become the child's people), and retire on Sorgan with him by the end of the series.
