Title: The Pirate
Director: Peter Ramsey
Runtime: 42 minutes
We are on the other side of the midway point. What secrets and schemes are lurking in Din’s future? I really enjoyed this episode, probably the best one of the season. This is another episode that feels like it takes more cues from Andor as it does, indeed, progress a sinister plot for Din and his covert.
A reminder that there will be no more spoiler warnings since we are now counting down to the season finale.
Title: The Foundling
Director: Carl Weathers
Runtime: 32 minutes
It’s the 20th episode of the series and the halfway point of season 3! One of the most surprising things about this episode is the runtime. (There is the other thing, which I will get to later.) However, this is another case where you can’t trust the Internet. While I can’t seem to find them anymore, I could have sworn I saw posts alleging this would be “the longest episode yet“. Obviously, they were just trying to garner clicks (perhaps that’s why I can no longer find them. Amateurs.)
This is an interesting episode that I quite enjoyed. Perhaps some minor nitpicks but nothing that decreased the quality of my enjoyment. Let’s get into it.
Title: The Convert
Director: Lee Isaac Chung
Runtime: 58 minutes
This is somewhat of a unique episode. I don’t want to give anything away before the spoiler marker but I believe this episode sets up a major story arc; if not the major story arc. The kind that may have implications that link to the sequel trilogy.
Speaking of implications, I think the title suggests there are two “converts”. The story in this episode takes a different turn. While there is great action at the beginning, the rest focuses on plot building. I did enjoy this episode, and even more so the second time I watched it. I have theories!
Title: The Mines of Mandalore
Director: Rachel Morrison
Runtime: 44 min
Din and Grogu find themselves on a ruined and inhospitable planet to recover myths and legends. Some “friendly” faces and some not-so-friendly faces return in this episode. More on that later.
I did enjoy this episode. There are fewer Easter Eggs and less foreshadowing than in the previous chapter. Perhaps the purpose of Chapter 17 is to foreshadow some events that may occur in this season. In fact I have a few theories of my own that I will discuss next.
Spoilers Ahead!!!
Title: The Apostate
Director: Rick Famuyiwa
Runtime: 37 min
We’re back! It’s been over two years since we’ve gotten to talk about a new episode of The Mandalorian; to say I’m excited is a gross understatement. Without further ado, let’s get into The Mandalorian Chapter 17!
Din Djarin is an apostate for having removed his helmet. He wishes to atone so that he can be reinstated as a Mandalorian. In order to do that he must pool his resources and gather the necessary intel.
Spoilers Ahead!!!
Well, here it is folks, during the game where Tom Brady is getting his ass kicked, again (LOL!). The Mandalorian Season 3 trailer – the final trailer.
My two favorite parts are the Anzellans and Grogu Force pushing the Morlock-looking thing! I have to go and watch this a dozen more times so I can fully absorb all of the details.
Season 3 of the Mandalorian premieres March 1st on Disney+
