Star Wars is FULL of coincidences.
That's not sloppy writing....or rather if you want to call it "sloppy writing" then you have to accept that this so-called sloppiness is built into the DNA of Star Wars from day 1.

Leia's ship randomly gets taken over in orbit next to the (middle of nowhere) planet where the the last Jedi Master is hiding out?
The "chosen one" happens to be on the same planet?
This "chosen one" just happens to be her BROTHER?
The military commander of the ship that captures her just happens to be her FATHER?


For me, its MUCH easier to accept that two different groups of people tracking the same ship will locate it on the same day.

Sloppy writing is just making things happen to move from one point to another.

Joker and Batman just so happening to creating each other isn’t sloppy writing.

The empire is against the rebel so yeah Vader might come across a rebel vessel he’s investigating.

You show me Mando able to remote control his jet pack then the one time he removes his pack all season and needs it he doesn’t pull it out?

thats sloppy

Empire can track you as long add you're out of hyperspace.

As long add he's not in hyperspace or right under/on him, they can track him. A force sensitive can anticipate his destination. An imperial has trackers and spies all over the place. If this sagas had taught you nothing else,you should at least understand that the empire knows where you are and who you are. Thus is part of their big brother personification. You think they can't track 3 nobodies?

I'm sorry guys,they serving piff, and we talking about tropes.

Yeah as cool as Boba was, and the Dark troopers, this wasn't the greatest episode. Clunky writing (except for the Mando/Boba dialogues) dragged it down.

I felt like there were three shots of Mando saying "Alright kid, time to get you out" only to get zapped backwards in the exact same manner.

Another dope episode.

I'm in for a Melinda May and Boba show :leon:

Mando has to spring BILLY FUKKIN SHARPSHOOTAH. He's gonna be pissed as fukk :russ:

I wonder which Jedi is gonna come looking for Grogu now though :lupe:

They laid out his choice between 'The Ball (the gearstick knob) And The Sword (The Darksaber) for real this week too, on some

Stopped reading the second time they named a source called Doomcock. What kind of tomfoolery is that? :dame:

Backing away from shyt rumors and talking about the show again, old ass Boba Fett put in that work. :wow:

Mando did have to act hella stupid though to make it work which was unfortunate. But it also played into the joke that this is really like a live action video game. After all the average gamer would also run into an energy barrier at least three times before accepting it's not the way forward right now.

The setting was really weird, watching the stormtroopers, Mando and Fennec struggling to get up and down the hills to move and shoot their guns felt like 90's TV at times but I thought they did a good job throwing cool shyt in between so the cheap setting wouldn't be that noticeable.

:russ: at forcing the story to have 2 waves of troopers show up just so we can see Fennec and Bobba beast AND Bobba get his armor back and wreck havoc. That's was fanservice 101:pachaha:

Cool episode overall. No one can complain the story is not moving forward anymore :ufdup:

Episode 2 is more important than people think.

It truly shows and establishes the love and passion Anakin has for Padme which is the ultimate deciding factor in EVERYTHING!

Episode 2 is mad underrated

Episode 2 is the prequels in a nutshell. The story and build up is there for an awesome movie, but the dialogue and excecution is so fukking bad it tarnishes the experience.

Is always better to read and talk about the prequels instead of actually watching them :manny:

Anyone notice how the control knob that Grogu likes looks like a mini Death Star?

Was anyone else waiting these last 2 eps for Mando's helmet to fly off during the force pull training?

Grogu and his force-itis

Boba was cracking stormtrooper armor with Kratos strength. I did laugh at him looking :flabbynsick: wearing his armor



This ep DEFINITELY needed to be an hour :angry:

It establishes the true power of the empire and the clone army which is significant for political and military reasons.

It showed Anakin reunite with his mother and kill the Tusken Raiders which also led to him becoming Vader

It showed Yoda in full action for the first time and he also did some badass shyt!

Episode 2 is mad underrated
I understand that, just isnt for me...i did enjoy the book tho back in the day. (Mostly cause anakin IIRC goes full darkside killing the sand people, tossing boulders and shyt at em :russ:)

Storm troopers fell to an even lower level of ineptitude this episode:mjlol:
How you 2 ships deep and get washed by 3 people?
These dudes ran and fled in into the sky on two ships that were equipped with with GIANT GUNS:heh:

shyt was wild, that one trooper with the big gun just steady shooting as the rock just keeps coming and rolls right over his ass....like dude get out of there!! :damn::mjlol:

And that one trooper had the drop on Boba with his blaster only to come in on him so he could get smashed by the stick. It was ridiculous :russ:
