I really hated the first 2 Mandolorian episodes. They were overly silly, the jetpack antics made me want to bash my head against a wall, and the fight scenes were laughable. Maybe I was just in a bad mood when I watched, though. I really liked the Saw Gerrera episodes; they definitely seemed like a step in the right direction, and I enjoyed seeing Saw again. These last 2 Lothal episodes were nearly perfect, IMO. They struck the perfect tone, and I was glad to see stormtroopers being actually injured and not just cartoonishly knocked out (I think Ezra even slashed one!). The dark and gloomy atmosphere of the first episode was made up for with the more light-hearted second episode. I liked the joke with the stormtroopers chasing the Lothcats. The choreography of the fight scenes seemed greatly improved, especially the sequence where Ezra’s trying to hold off the stormtroopers at the hangar, but I noticed it even during the fighter chase. The sound design seems to be improved as well. I also liked the force mysticism going on, and I’m interested to see where that story goes.
