Rocky is watching Grogu sleep
To be honest, the weirdest part about Children of the Watch is that they don't primarily speak Mando'a to each other.
I'm pretty sure the creed is just the Resol'nare but taken to extreme.
Speak the Language, wear the armor, serve the clan, rally when called by the Mand'alor, Defend yourself and your family, and raise you children as Mandalorians.
They are just extreme Orthodox Mandos. They do all of this except speak the language. Which they only do in TBOBF when The Armorer (incorrectly) counts while sparring and Din reads Mando'a in season 2 when looking through Boba Fett's chain code. The only other person that speaks it and reads it in The Mandalorian is Bo-Katan and she's a Nite Owl.
I know Andor did it later, but they should have just had subtitles for the language, it would have made it more interesting.
the covert foundlings seeing how all the beskar goes to the green toddler who showed up three days ago and doesn’t even wear a helmet
i'm not seeing enough appreciation for the absolute master class that is the moment grace chooses to removes his helmet for the first time in the xenonite tunnel.
he's terrified, yet his instinct to trust is stronger than his instinct to survive. he's afraid, and he knows he could possibly suffocate to death in that moment, but something in that early meeting calls him on a deeper level to connect with rocky. to trust him with his literal life.
as grace contemplates removing the helmet, the camera cuts back to rocky - who intentionally leans forwardly slowly and clicking cautiously, anxious to see if this kind human is going to trust him the way he does.
cut back to grace and he removes the helmet on blind faith. he exhales overwhelming sighs of relief; the music swells and resolves; rocky chirps and jumps for joy; grace softly smiles, and so does damn near anyone in the audience. the moment is potent and raw. it assures the characters and the audience alike: you can count on me. you are not alone. we can figure this out if we stay curious about each other.
the scene then ends on a wide shot of their two ships bound together, spinning in synchronized centrifugal gravity, over beautiful resolving chords of melody and harmony. it shows us a powerful visual of the birth of their unbreakable physical and emotional bond. dependability and loyalty is built and earned, but these two could actually trust each other with their lives from the very start.
their fates are now literally entwined.
Young Din Djarin of Concordia
Can we talk about how it's time for Grogu to have a set of new outfits? some cute toddler jumpers with a little patch of the mudhorn on each Fit to represent their clan? I manifest a season 4. I manifest new outfits.
It's time to retire the robe.
The Armorer, holding Din and Paz up by their collars as kids: Alright. That’s it. You two are in time out.
Din: I understand how she can lift me. I’m 67 pounds soaking wet and the only armor I’m wearing is my helmet.
Din: But how is she lifting you?
Paz: I don’t know and I’m terrified.
Someone please write me a Mandalorian fic where Din assumes the duties of the manda'lor, but having absolutely no idea how to lead a nation, the best he can do is default to his standard operating procedure: be begrudgingly helpful to everyone he meets and apply all 12 of his B+ parenting skills at once. (Will Bo-Katan learn anything from a long timeout? Stay tuned!)
Din, with misplaced optimism, fully believes that his incompetent leadership will inspire someone to challenge him for the Darksaber quickly, freeing him up to go chase after Grogu to the ends of the galaxy…
Except that (to Din’s utter dismay), it turns out “grumpy dad who can and will fight god because there was nothing better to do on Tuesday” is the exact definition of the ideal manda'lor, and every Mandalorian who meets him ends up swearing fealty in about ten minutes flat.
Mandalore is thriving, the clans are flocking back to their home world, trade is booming, the New Republic is begging for an alliance, beskar is being repatriated left and right, hell, someone swears they just saw a living mythosaur…
And Din Djarin cannot stop space-googling “Ways to ghost an entire planet.”
(If he fakes his own death enough times, maybe they’ll stop sending Boba Fett after him??)
Mandalorians viewing Din’s transmission to Moff Gideon: A+
Watching the darksaber single combat: A++
Wait this is about the foundling!!!: A+++
Din Djarin wielding the darksaber in one hand and Grogu coooing in the other hand: A+++++++++++++
And somewhere in there is Din trying to work out how to legally give the darksaber to Bo Katan because he doesn’t want it but she’s trying to work out how to legally steal it and they keep getting in each other’s way. But by the time Bo Katan figures out she could just ask for it Din has realized she is not who he would want in charge and he finally grudgingly leans into the job and of course “I’m doing this just to spite someone I disagree with” is yet another hallmark of a great Manda’lor and his approval rating goes through the roof
the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.
just thought about how Grogu probably wore his armour like that over his potato sack when he was going to Nal Hutta because Din wasn't around to help him put it on like he was earlier in the film??? ouch?????
How many plates can you eat, Grogu?
I was thinking that despide what happened on season 3 (derogatory), there’s a high chance Din Djarin would’ve ended up becoming Mand’alor anyways after a couple of years.
I give Bo-Katan 3 years before she sets fire to Mandalore and looses the Darksaber…again.
The Darksaber would inevitably end up in Din’s hand despite his absolute refusal to be the main character in his own story.
The universe will gladly drag Din Djarin kicking and screaming to fix Mandalore because the Force thinks it’s hilarious to torture this man specifically.
Grogu will cheer along the way because he doesn’t care as long as he gets to spend time with his dad.
Somewhere in a Tatooine, Boba is having the best day of his life
"father. I have a bomb."
remember that time din thought he was never going to see grogu again and not two days later he was fully on board with dying in a firefight helping boba fett. this man is not interested in living his life if grogu is not in it.
Some critical thoughts about The Mandalorian and Grogu:
Dave (yes, Dave, as in co-written by him and also now since he’s the boss he gets the criticism) continues to operate out of “Wouldn’t it be cool if…?”
By which I mean there are a great many fun ideas in this movie, but they stand out as isolated ideas not truly relevant to the plot. Basically, the movie hops from one action sequence to the next or one Creature Feature to the next.
Does Dave have some kind of spectacular night vision that enables him to see these dark productions?
Surprised to learn that this movie is actually about Rotta the Hutt and neither Din nor Grogu, the titular characters, for the most part.
A buff Hutt with an American accent and speaking style is just so…weird. It’s a weird choice for an MC. It looks weird. It’s ooc for the Hutts. Idk. Weird, ok.
That being said, why is there this obvious attitude at LF towards TCW characters that they can just show up in any piece of media without any explanation whatsoever, especially if they’re related to Ahsoka somehow?
Without a spiritual component, Grogu’s Force abilities feel reduced to tools and tricks.
Sigourney Weaver’s character was so. boring. Clearly, she was only brought in as a Big Name to try to lure in an audience. I had the slightest hope for a double cross, but ALAS. Like the Armorer of S3, she turned out to be a Big Fat Nothing. Let Women Be Messy!
Did this movie add anything meaningful to the plot or intrigue of the wider Mandoverse and the coming storm of the imperial remnant? No, it did not. This movie didn’t mean anything.
In conclusion, the big cameo of all the Mando directors at the end was the perfect way to show that this movie was made only for the sake of making a movie. “Wouldn’t it be cool if…?”
The faces of two fathers who would do anything for their sons.
