Spoiler Review –

The title about says it all, doesn’t it?!

The Mandalorian Season Two Review: “Chapter 13 – The Jedi”

The Mandalorian Season Two Chapter 13 The Jedi

Spoiler Review –

The Mandalorian’s “Chapter 13 – The Jedi,” directed by Dave Filoni of Star Wars animation fame, is a lot to take in, from the first live-action appearance of Ahsoka Tano, the reveal of Baby Yoda’s name and some of his history, and another big name from book/animation/Legends lore mentioned, and while I overall enjoyed it and all its implications, part of its biggest draw is its biggest weakness.

The Mandalorian Season Two Review: “Chapter 12 – The Siege”

The Mandalorian Season 2 Chapter 12 The Siege

Spoiler Review –

The Mandalorian’s “Chapter 12 – The Siege” reminds me a bit of an 80’s action movie, it was directed by Carl Weathers after all, from its comradery between old friends and allies, infiltration of a villain’s lair, and plenty of humor, but it feels smarter than one too, as it reveals some new and intriguing details on Moff Gideon’s plans. As much as I enjoyed this episode, I’d be committing a dereliction of duty if I didn’t talk about how it also means the involvement of Gina Carano and how that brings things down.

Spoiler Review –

The Mandalorian returns with an epic sized season two premiere, “Chapter 9 – The Marshal,” which benefits the show and its ability to pull from all across canon by giving events and characters more time to marinate, while the action, reveals, and scale of events offer plenty of promise for this next season of the Baby Yoda show.
