Another really oddly structured episode, though at the same time I can’t say I didn’t enjoy the segments. Did Fett even say a word in this episode? I always assumed that this was a miniseries, but now it seems more likely that the intent was to have another season. Or maybe Favreau simply felt that Fett’s story was sufficiently told in the first few episodes and now it’s more about an ensemble cast of characters.

Judging by you-know-who’s appearance at the end it does at least seem like we’ll get more with Fett in the next episode which I’m pretty will have to be at least a 50 min. episode to wrap things up. Unless of course we get some kind of season 2 tease. Or who knows, maybe Fett’s story will be continued in The Mandalorian season 3 seeing as Din basically took over almost two episodes of his show.

A few random thoughts and observations:

Really like the Sergio Leone vibe from the scenes with Cobb Vanth. And the speeder in the 1st scene still wobble like a car with wheels just like Luke’s in ANH, which I think adds a certain clunky charm to them despite the obvious reason why it looks like that.

The stone-mason ant-droids is definitely one of the cooler droids I’ve seen in SW for a while.

Luke looks so much better than before. His expressions feels more natural, though there’s still a bit of softness to the face, however I’d consider that a decent trade off for performance. His voice, however, does sound a little bit off, or is that just me?

Slight canon break, so small in fact that I don’t really care, but figured I’d mention it either way. Yoda’s lightsaber was technically smelted down by Mas Amedda in a ritual show in the first issue of the Darth Vader comic by Charles Soule, but I suppose Yoda could have made a replacement during his years in exile. Or I suppose there could have been other small lightsabers found at the Jedi temple.
