Do you think Din was replaying every memory of himself and Grogu as he collapsed to the soil of Nal Hutta and was regretting the fact that he didn’t take his helmet off for his son just one last time, just to see him with his own eyes again, to see how much he’s grown since that first time

Sorry to ask, it’s ok if you don’t wanna answer but since I see so much vitriol for Brendan on Twitter I’d like to understand more to be well informed. What do you mean he was almost fired? And that LF asked to not address the rumors about Pedro being a diva? Because the narrative I’ve seen is that they were made up by “the stunt people”, and that Pedro was gracious and happy to be there on set unlike season 1, the only time I’ve heard Pedro asked to have his face seen is to say goodbye to Grogu if I recall correctly.

And learning that about Barry is very disappointing, he was my fave Din double. Nothing against Brendan (tho I have my reservations on how he behaves online), but I liked Din’s physicality more in S2, it felt more natural? While S3 felt very wooden and stiff (could be a directing problem too of course but it was very noticeable to me)

Around the time of season 2’s release, there were lots of rumors swirling about Pedro being a diva on set, walking off set because he wanted his face to be seen more, and even some that he’d quit the show altogether. They were ridiculous, of course, but people who were here will remember how rampant they were. I talked about it a lot at the time to reassure fans that it wasn’t the truth.

Which, of course, it wasn’t. I forget where, but there’s an interview somewhere of Brendan explaining how he had made that post supporting Pedro, and how Lucasfilm had warned him to take it down because they didn’t want anyone addressing the rumors (they didn’t want the situation to escalate).

He had to adjust the caption since then, but most of the original post is still available:

I wasn't a fan of Brendan Wayne for a while because of some statements and what came across to me as cocky attitude. However, the more I hear and see, I think he's mostly just clumsy. He doesn't always use the best words to share his thoughts and some of them come across wrong. But despite those few hiccups, this looks like a man truly passionate about the Mandalorian, who genuinely loves what he does and wants the best for the show and the characters. He makes a formidable team with Lateef and always supported Pedro. He deserved that time in the spotlight during season 3's promo. He worked for it, pushed his body just to deliver the performance. He might not have a personality that clicks with everyone, and yeah I do find that he gave a bit too much of a 'baseball dad attitude' to Din in season 3, but at the end of the day, while Pedro is Din, Brendan makes a dang good Mando.

This right here!!! I cannot emphasize how much this man loves what he does, the character he plays, and the entire team that brings him and his story to life, including Pedro. He's been so so kind and gracious every time I've met him; he and Lateef gave me a free picture, and he gave me a free hat that he signed. And he gave me two hugs at the world premiere!!! He's just not media trained, that's really the issue here. But he really does love Din and his story and cares a lot about it and all the people involved <3 and the FANS!!!!

They're gonna go back for the Starfighter, get Grogu a booster seat, and he will fly it :)

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

The fourth is Barry Lowin!

Aw, I thought he was cool?:( At least that’s what people used to say about him.

Yeah, I thought the same :( but then someone told me a story of how they were at a con and he saw their Pedro merch and just bashed him unprompted :/ it was disappointing to say the least

#pain. suffering even #the mandalorian #you have spoken

I loved the movie! It was so great to have our fave duo back 😭. I’m a bit worried about the box office though, it seems like the second week drop is significant and I’m not sure it’ll pass 300 million at this point, do you think this will affect Din and Grogu’s story for the future?

I wonder if going for such a safe story at the end hurt the movie, maybe people heard it’s just a small story and will simply wait until it hits D+ to not spend money on it. I’m sad it isn’t doing well and scared about what this could mean for the future of these two…

Box office is a tricky thing to dwell upon in this day and age, especially comparing it to SW movies of old, because the entire movie theater culture just isn't what it was prior to COVID, and this is the first SW movie post-COVID. Not to mention it's based on a streaming show, and people know it'll go to Disney+ eventually, so a lot of people I know are waiting for it to hit Disney+. We just have to dwell on what other victories we can find!

I don't think it'll affect Din and Grogu's story at all. What may not be earned at the box office is definitely being earned in merchandise sales. Grogu sells, and so does Din! Trust me, as someone who frequents Galaxy's Edge, the love for Din and Grogu is real and it's here to stay. Right now, it's a matter of either getting season 4 and continuing their story on streaming or continuing with more movies.

i saw the movie and i was dying in the inside but in a good way. i kept going like 'ohmygoshh rotta is lwk grogus bestie' (is that his name? idk) but i screameddd i loved ittt afkshfhhjs

i was panicking cause i thought djarin died and the only part i didnt like is when djarin woke up from his coma and all he said was like 'hi' i wanted grogu to run into his arms and hug him and a heartwarming moment anyway id rate it 5/5 stars. im gonna see it again

That's literally one of my only criticisms too like... Din Djarin my beloved I know you're emotionally stunted from your childhood trauma but PLEASE EMOTE FOR YOUR SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#PRETTY PLEASE #din djarin #grogu #the mandalorian and grogu #the mandalorian #the mandalorian and grogu spoilers #tmag spoilers #the mandalorian spoilers #you have spoken

Wait? There’s a 4th person?

At least a fourth! I think there's been a fifth, too, though the name eludes me. The fourth is Barry Lowin!

#din djarin #the mandalorian #you have spoken

we are ready for that conversation

It doesn't sit right with me that people go after Brendan constantly when he's been genuinely nothing but supportive towards Pedro every time I've spoken to him directly about it. He had every opportunity to tear him down to me, yet he didn't.

I was literally there on the SWCJ press line when I heard Pedro bring up Brendan and Lateef, completely unprompted, and praise them. And we all saw that picture of Pedro and Brendan hugging at the movie's world premiere (which I was also at). That's not fake. None of it is fake.

Can I understand why fans get frustrated because Brendan tries to acknowledge the support from his fans while they're saying he deserves more credit than Pedro in the same breath? Yes, I can. (And the whole "acting is more than talking" wasn't a great moment; I don't think it was shade, but it came across poorly and could've used more reflection prior to posting.) At the same time, however, people often forget that Brendan nearly lost his job because they were told by Lucasfilm not to acknowledge the rumors during season 2 about Pedro being a "diva" on set and wanting to have the helmet off more, yet he posted on Instagram insisting that Pedro hadn't quit, he was coming back for season 3, and that he did incredible work in season 2 being more physically present.

But people going after him and particularly diminishing the fact he looks smaller in the suit in season 2 doesn't sit right with me when the reason behind that is that Brendan had a life-threatening health condition that put him in the ICU and literally killed him (he flatlined). He lost tons of weight and did everything he could to be back on set, which allowed him to shoot all of Chapter 13 and some scenes in Chapter 11 and Chapter 16.

Barry Lowin was brought in to assist. He might've done some stuff for season 1 as well, I can't remember, but he became the stand-in for whatever Pedro couldn't do in season 2 because of this. People often call for more recognition for him, which is indeed fair, but I've heard a story of him speaking bitterly about Pedro at a con, completely unprompted. That's something Brendan has never done.

I'm not telling anyone they have to like Brendan if they don't, necessarily, but I just thought it was important to inform people of what I know from having worked close to the industry for a time and having several first-hand accounts with those involved.

#just some food for thought #pedro pascal #brendan wayne #the mandalorian #din djarin #you have spoken

All I’m saying is that there’s a reason why Pedro uplifts and praises Brendan and Lateef and not that fourth person who’s helped out a few times

#because he’s the one who actually trashes pedro out of the blue at cons but #are we ready for that convo?#din djarin #the mandalorian #pedro pascal #lateef crowder #barry lowin

planned the first Security movie chapter today… life is worth liviiiiiiing

#and when zeb becomes the newest uncle what then.#security #molly talks

Do we have an idea when the movie is supposed to air on Disney+? Before I accidently lose 200$ in cinema tickets in a month?

I don’t honestly! The most recent example I can use is Zootopia 2 I suppose for Disney; it took about 3.5 months to hit D+, giving people time to buy it on digital beforehand. So it’ll be a hot minute, I fear

THE BLURGS GOT TO EXPERIENCE RAIN I’M CRYING

#OUGHHHHHHHHHHHHH #the mandalorian and grogu #the mandalorian #the mandalorian and grogu spoilers #the mandalorian spoilers #tmag spoilers #you have spoken

everyone online i feel is talking about how it’s a mid star wars movie but i went in kinda looking at it as one huge fanservice (minus a single one of din’s situationships) so i am well fed and satiated😋

The internet is so full of negativity, meanwhile everyone I've talked to about it irl has had nothing but nice things to say and loves it more than they expected to so ! BAM

#the mandalorian #the mandalorian and grogu #you have spoken

In my feels so I was rewatching some s1. The way Grogu was so small and quiet and Din’s voice had less warmth in the early days. They’ve come so far 🥹.
