Who needed 30 minutes of a Mandalorian episode on two nothing characters walking around coruscant.

:wave:

And they aren't "nothing characters."

Pershing has been a valuable player in this since S1. Expanding the ideas/themes isn't a bad thing. This show is better with less Mando & Grogu, frankly.



Considering Book of BOba Fett got slammed for giving Mando his own episode.

Pershing gets 30 minutes ?? Did anyone really think he was going to get betrayed in the end.



The start and the end of the episode were the highlights. I think Im falling in love with Bo Katan. Mando didnt see the mythosaur which is interesting.,

IS BO going to find it herself.


Mandalore will be United when a new leader arises riding a mythosaur.

Some shit like that.


Of course she’s keeping that to herself. Good spot too.
They’re allies for the moment. As she said they were with the Jedi. And then weren’t. Anything could happen.

I can’t wait to see it.





I’ve whiplash from this episode. It starts out brilliant Star Wars. Then hard shifts to the other star wars.


It’s beating you ibex the head w messaging about indoctrination and blindness and dogma and a hundred other things. But overall it’s s beauty.

This ep took a steep nosedive after the opening dogfight. Did George Lucas come back to direct the interminable Coruscant scenes?

Also, I love Pascal, but his voice acting stinks.

Nice try with the Andor-style story, but when you don’t have Tony Gilroy writing that can be stale AF. Which this was. Season has been pretty boring so far despite Bo who I like.

I feel like your default position is to defend the stuff that everyone else hates.

I watched the new ep twice. The doctor storyline just isn't interesting. And if he is basically dead now, what was the point? Did they do all that just to sneak in the line about Moff Gideon and no one knows where he is? Clearly those tie interceptors and bombers at Bo's castle were his. Just seemed to waste 30 minutes of not moving the story forward.

Also, in past appearances of mandalorians in large groups, whether it be Rebels or Clone Wars, I seem to remember them (other than Sabine) all having more matching helmets/armor. The willy-nilly attitude of all of those different outfits is driving me nuts.

I assume they are trying to turn the Doctor evil or something so he helps create Emperor clones to tie into the sequel trilogy cause doubling down on bad ideas is Disney's current philosophy.

Right. But this is the firs time I'm not the one hating on Mandalorian. Usually y'all rave about it and I'm the one picking at it. :lol:

Or, since Bo mentions that there a lot of ships for a warlord, could they possible belong to, oh I don't know, a Grand Admiral?

I think this episode did a lot more to advance what this show is about than almost any other episode of the series so far. But we'll have to wait and see how it all plays out. I could be way off in what I expect this show to be.

Her work in this episode was phenomenal. He physical work was outstanding. I loved being able to know exactly what she was thinking (especially in that scene) without seeing her face. Katee really, really slayed it. She's awesome.

Filoni co-wrote it, so it's not out the question. But I don't think her post was any kind of spoiler. She's literally just saying she's excited for the next episode.

But I hope we see her again this season. An Ahsoka sighting is always welcome.

Also, do we think the title of this episode (The Convert) is a Bo-Katan or Pershing? Both?

Is the former imperial chick actually a double agent and really working for Gideon undercover ?
Theory going around that she wiped pershings mind under orders as Gideon doesn’t want the republic getting their hands on or his mind back into his work


I can’t think why else she would turn that mind flayer machine all the way up
