My issue with the 2-movie option is that the overall plot for season 2 is very basic… find the Jedi. If you split the season, the movie for the first half doesn’t actually achieve anything. He starts of looking for the Jedi and ends with him looking for the Jedi. The other issue is that the footage from episodes 6, 7 and 8 barely covers 90mins, so it would be a very short movie. I could incorporate Episode 5 but that makes an even less satisfying ending to the first movie.
I guess the other option is to stick with the single movie but end it with the Child’s capture and push Luke’s rescue to the next movie.
The next movie would thus be:
Act 1:
Luke’s rescue.
Act 2:
Mando’s rejection by his covert and a trimmed down Boba on Tatooine plot.
Act 3:
Mando and Boba reunite.
