So, is there any word on why they totally ripped off a clone wars episode? Like beat for beat?

Dont remember Scout Walkers ever having those glowing red front windows, guess it was added for a more menacing look at night. |

looked rather orkish. Plot annoyed me though... why not sneak through the camp and just blow it up in their sleep. It would make more sense, but be a less exciting script. But then there wouldn’t have been a climactic ending. |

So basically, it's a show about a grown man, who never changes his clothes/awkward around women, stealing a baby and transporting it to a remote planet and killing people who try to rescue the baby.

Considering how much she knows about Mandalorian culture and her ability to handle a rifle and fight, I’m going to bet she’s either a Mandalorian or at least has had contact with the Mandalorians at some point in the past. |

Agreed. Felt a lot like a Disney show instead of a Star award show. No doubt due to the director ( Dallas Howard) playing nice. Shows what difference a director makes. Still I enjoyed it overall.

I liked E4, though why not go all A-10 on the AT-ST with his ship?
Still, it was enjoyable. |

Episode 4 was the weakest so far but not terrible.
As soon as it ended, I said "yeah, that seemed like an episode directed by Bryce Dallas Howard." It was written to give the viewer more emotional attachment to the characters and it succeeded. It showed that Mando isn't just a total stoic badass that lives for violence and baby Yoda isn't some mystical being that is content doing nothing but eating frogs and doing force stuff. He is a kid and he enjoys kid stuff. Most viewers came away from episode 4 with more empathy for Mando and more love for the tiny adaorable green puppet. |

I dunno man, Gena looks like she's discovered the secret Imperial donut stash. Also as we all know, male muscle is far stronger than female muscle. I could buy her out wrestling Mando though. She just needs to get him on the ground and sit on him. I'm sure even though she's put on the kilos, there are plenty of members here who would let her sit on them Quote HistoryQuoted:

ETA I googled it. The dude that plays the mandalorian, Pedro Pascal, is 5'11 and 160 lbs. Dude is small. So for folks talking about women beating up men and it not being realistic... The protagonist weighs 160lbs... Lol... Irl Gena would whip that dude's ass ETA 2. Yes, I hate seeing the 98 lb chick in movies beating up dudes twice their weight. It's crap. But here we have two folks not all that different in size, and one of them is very likely augmented due to occupation... Easy to suspend disbelief. I could buy her out wrestling Mando though. She just needs to get him on the ground and sit on him. I'm sure even though she's put on the kilos, there are plenty of members here who would let her sit on them |

Maybe I missed it, but did we ever find out why that AT-ST was on that insignificant backwater planet in the first place? Not that it's a big deal, not everything needs to be explained, but it interests me.

Well written episode and the female shock trooper definitely wasn't out of character. In the original EU, a lot of shock troopers for the rebels came from high gravity worlds and were stronger, hence they'd be selected to be shock troopers. It shows the Mando as someone human and also showed that just because the Empire fell and the Rebels became the New Republic. Nothing is peachy. The former Rebel even said it herself. She felt lost once the Revolution was over and the New Republic was established and became exactly doing what the Empire did. Enforcing the law and cracking down on uprisings.

I liked ep4.
It was my daughter's favorite episode. There were issues with the plot and the acting but it wasn't that bad, and I enjoyed the parenthood gags. Filoni will bring it back around to action again next week I'm sure. |

Question:. Why didn't Mando take out the AT-ST with his ships cannons via a staffing run?
Answer: Far too risky to gamble your starship asset Very likely he'd be shot down instead and crash. Ship was also recently taken apart by Jawas and maybe not too reliable in an atmosphere. EDIT: Need more A-10 warthogs in the SW universe |
