Another think I forgot I really liked was them establishing Boba and Jango as Mandalorians again. Never liked that change, and explaining it as elitism by differing clans was a good fix.
great season though. Where does the show go from here? I really know nothing of this backstory.
This is just a guess, but I think next season will focus on the Darksaber now that Mando has it.
Without spoiling too much, the Darksaber was the lightsaber of the first and only Mandalorian to become a Jedi thousands of years ago. Things ended badly and at one point the Jedi and Mandalorians go to war. Eventually the Darksaber became this symbol for the people of Mandalore and whoever wields it can rule as king or queen. In The Mandalorian they say the planet of Mandalore was fucked on hard so i think next season will show Mando and Bo Katan fighting over the darksaber as well as fighting to take back control of their planet from the Empire.
Mandalore was a desert planet that saw so much combat that the explosions from constant warfare turned all the sand to glass and made the planet uninhabitable.
Speaking of Mandalorians... Im fuckin addicted to Republic Commando. Still on the first book but it's so fuckin good. Ghez Hokan is such an interesting villian. Got me playing the game again too.
Kinda makes me wish they did a similar spin off about ARC Troopers starring Captain Fordo. Fordo is already an absolute badass, but Republic Commando gives these guys so much depth.
The darksaber is featured in a couple arcs of the Clone Wars cartoon and Rebels if you're interested
Ive honestly been meaning to watch them. Ive know this for a while.
Idk what it is, but with technology these days i have a real issue with shows keeping my attention. Since breaking bad the only shows that really have are this one, the boys, and a strong maybe to mind hunter.
Not to say that those wouldn’t. I just worry about watching something thats good and not giving it enough credit because im too fucked up to pay attention lol
Also, this isn't to do with this show really, but me and my GF were talking about her grandpa needs to see galaxy’s edge beforehand he passes because he loves the classic star wars.
But her grandma wont go because she has pretty bad copd and doesn’t want to be regulated to a wheelchair. They are 71.
So we were thinking she would go if we got married at Disney. So were now considering, in a very hopeful way considering a pandemic, that we can pull that off.
Obviously this would be with the vaccine and ever possible circumstance going right, but we might as well be positive.
moral of the story,l.. when you can, go see galaxies edge and ride ROTR because its as good a representation of star wars as this show.

Just finished the Republic Commando game. Havent played it since I was a kid, so I barely remembered any of it. It's so fuckin good. This is the Star Wars shit I needed. Need the rest of the audio books to finish. I'll probably buy the books to read too, because I don't think I can wait lol.
On to the Jedi Knight games. Starting with a replay of Dark Forces.
Recommendations for custom lightsabers? I don't really want a replica from an established character, I was something more unique and personal - but also affordable.

i think my favorite part of the season was Bill burr lmao. No one on the show acts like him at all, and then hes just on there being himself )

In the mean time, I think I'll try out Audible and get on Heir To The Empire.
I'm about 100 pages deep into Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising (new cannon) and its soooo good. Highly recommend.
If you do, I can send you book 2 as a free gift if you want.
