I just watched through these and found them an overall enjoyable experience. There were a few moments I missed but they were few and far between in it has been a well done reshaping of the first part of the New Republic stories.

In terms of feedback I agree with a lot of what Eddie has said, so I won’t repeat it, just 2nd it. Just a few thoughts from my watch through:

I loved losing Grogu eating the frog babies. That was always a bit distressing to watch and I think you placed the ice planet sequence well and very nicely cut around Frog woman’s presence.

One thing I did notice in the reshuffling was that Mayfeld talks about Grogu like he’s met him, and Grogu was not aboard the Razor Crest at the same time as Mayfeld in this edit.

I’m also wondering if the music when our crew has successfully traveled with the rhidonium could be less upbeat? Something that gives a sense of doom because our heroes are being saved by Imperials. It should feel phyrric, and the music undercuts that imo.

Also the first cut to Mayfeld interrupting the scan to save Djarin was disjointedly abrupt. I know you don’t want him taking his helmet off, but it only almost worked here.

Finally, just a question really, Does Bo-Katan dismissing Boba as a Mandalorian because he’s a Clone cause problems with the Legends idea that the Mandalorians sheltered defected Clones during & after Order 66? Or is it simply that she is taking umbridge at what she perceives as a clone wearing ancestral armor?
