While I understand the whole story about why he was how he was then... it doesn't change the fact that fans had certain expectations.

So the whole Dark Saber dilemma between Bo and Din makes a little more sense if you've seen Star Wars: Rebels, which takes place like a decade or more before The Mandalorian. In Rebels one of the main characters, Sabine Wren, defeats the Dark Saber's wielder in combat to obtain it. Believing Bo Katan to be the better choice to lead Mandalore, Sabine gifts her the ancient weapon, and Bo accepts it. Bo Katan forgoes tradition. What happens after that? Well, Mandalore falls and it's people are scattered. All under Bo Katan's leadership. With that context in mind, I feel like Bo Katan believes she failed her people, that she wasn't a strong leader. A few clans were present when she accepted the Dark Saber but they were by no means all of them. Maybe other clans didn't respect her claim, leading to an infighting and thus an ununified Mandalore, making them ripe for defeat by Gideon and his forces. That's how I see it anyway. The show definitely could've explained it better for people who only watch it and not any of the others.

@@major505 It's politics. Bo Katan lost the support of the traditionalist warrior clans and she needs that if she is to take back Mandalore and rule it. She needs a big, loud appeal-to-tradition. She has to get the Dark Saber in a big, loud, symbolic way. Defeating Moff Gideon in single combat could have done it since all the Mandalorian survivors hate him for what he did on Mandalore. If word got out that she took the Saber from Din without a fight or after a dishonorable fight, it would undermine her position farther. Din is a Mandalorian hero for defeating Moff Gideon and recovering the Dark Saber. If Bo acts against him, it would be very bad PR for her. Her only political option is to have Din lose the Saber to some enemy and then Bo can come in and recover it legitimately.

The thought that goes through your head when you realise that R2 and Grogu remember each other from before Order 66.

Watching your reaction to this ep is like sharing the moment with a good friend, as always on this channel. For myself I can't stop gushing about how they spool out the hints as to who the jedi is. You know, anyone could be flying an xwing, wearing a dark cloak, then you see that it's a green blade, he's wearing one glove, and you have all the pieces you need to make the reveal feel like a reward for paying close attention. They could easily have made it so obvious that hyping up the reveal would end up silly but they nailed it.

Can we just appreciate just how well the music in this show is

Catching up on your videos, James, and I'm watching your excited reaction... and it occurs to me that A LOT of work went into getting YOU that juiced. The creative lore that started decades ago, the innovative special effects used to bring that lore to life, the writing that gave the characters depth, the acting that gave weight to the writing, the direction that produced a vision, the editing that stitched a cohesive story together, the executive producers who financed the films, the caterers who fed the cast and crew, the set designers who brought fantasy realms to life... and so much more! For the masses, yes. But also individually for you and me. The reveal when that hood is pulled back gave everyone that jolt of happiness is the culmination of an absurd amount of talent and work.

I've seen that reacue seen a thousand times and I *STILL* get goosebumps! ❤❤❤😊😎

The Reveal and Luke’s theme music playing as stands there being recognized….then Artoo’s appearance to compound the feel!!!

Watching this was like re-living this amazing scene all over again - huge applause! I think some people figured it was Luke as soon as they saw his ship, but not being totally Star Wars-savvy, the reveal blew me away. Sooo looking forward to you watching Book of Boba if that's on your list!

The Luke in this seems like an unlocked character shown during the movie sequences in video games-how he interacts and speaks or how little

This is the 2nd reaction video of yours that I've watched, I had to see for myself your reaction, you didn't disappoint... I definitely cried this episode, because for me this was more than 35 years in the making, as my childhood returned in a level of elation that is immeasurable.

Hey man, if you're caught up with the MCU past Avengers: Endgame, I highly recommend WandaVision. It's an insane combination of classic sitcoms, superhero stuff and almost borderline horror, yet it all works. Plus the filmmaking is stellar. Right up your alley bro.

When I saw Mando holding the dark saber, I was like just do a thumb war. The biggest of trials!

Now this is what we’ve been waiting for

Man, your reactions are the best. I can’t stop watching them. Big love from Russia!❤️❤️❤️

There you go bro what a season

Brilliant job mate. Keep going. For me, this was the biggest surprise since the Sixth Sense. To think that in 2020-21 they could keep this a secret is remarkable. No one saw it coming. Filmed a year beforehand on a closed set. I love that it becomes so obvious when it happens, leaving us all feeling stupid for not expecting it. The whole timeline was a big reveal as much as Luke, and it's like... oh, of course. I loved your reaction and if you check out more, you'll see grown men crying over this unexpected and extremely welcome reveal. Thank you.

I'm just impressed that you managed not to swear like a sailor watching that. I certainly did. :-D

Yes, it will sound like Billy Butcher. Both actors are New Zealanders and (although i do love him to death) Karl Urban's 'East end of London' accent is extremely New Zealandish.

I see that a lot of people were expecting Ahsoka to be the one to answer Grogu's call, but never understood why they would think that since she already had Grogu in front of her and turned him away to go to that temple to call someone else - she's going to answer the call she initiated herself?

It just never gets old watching a reaction to Luke coming back. At this point in responding, I’m sure someone reminded you Jaba died. It’s all good. Loved the reaction!

I’ve been looking forward to this...

bo katan took the dark saber last time from sabine wren and even though we don't know how she lost it, it is presumed she couldn't unite mandalore because she didn't win the saber in combat. she more than likely doesn't want to repeat that.

I'm amazed you haven't been spoiled on this yet. Great job as usual good sir.

This episode was so good.

Excellent reaction, man! Think about how many emotions you experienced during the episode.....and then think about how QUICKLY you went through each one. One right after the other. Anxiety, terror, confusion, sheer joy and then gut-wrenching grief. THAT'S filmmaking. Oh yeah....then they drop R2 in there as well. Now go watch some other reactors and how they all collectively lost their minds. It was the greatest moment in Star Wars, in MY opinion. Once again, EXCELLENT reaction!

17:40 I’m glad you understand my sentiments. I swear I thought FF the moment I heard the music.

Shocker of all shockers, the Jedi that shows up, is literally the only living Jedi confirmed in the cannon, at this point in the timeline.

WandaVision definitely! From a Marvel lore and film/TV making standpoint it's top notch and ridiculously creative.

My favorite part has to be the when the green lightsaber showed up. I had my suspicion that the Jedi would be Luke when the X-Wing flew by, I hope it would be Luke, but it was like "oh man would they really do this?", but when the green lightsaber entered I knew for sure. I grew up watching the OT (300+ views), so the green lightsaber is quite engraved in my mind..

Return of THE Jedi. Note to self: Never get caught by a Skywalker in a hallway. XD

The actor that plays Boba Fett and all the clones is from New Zealand and so is Billy Kutcher from the Boys which makes sense why they sound the same

the mandalorian is roughly set five years after returning the Jedi so yes this would have been when Luke was absolutely in his prime a Jedi master and at this point in time he's actually getting ready to start his school ( the new Jedi Order) the one that Kylo destroys in the sequels if they still keep it that. if you would have watched any of the reactions from other people at least 90% of them guys girls and all were in tears during the final moments when Luke showed up when Grogu got taken away with Luke just absolutely balling like babies and that does include myself and I'm a 53-year-old Star wars fan. ✌️🙏

Just a thought. R2-D2 never got a memory wipe. It is possible, even likely that he and Grogu (Baby Yoda) know each other. Which does explain their reaction to each other.

Great series reaction! 🔥

If you haven't seen it yet, I would LOVE to see you react to Dr. Who! Such an amazing show. Loved the video as always. Keep it up!

I like that you enjoy this after the hype ... x

Luke being the one called almost makes up for Last Jedi onwards lol. Also mad love for the Final Fantasy soundtrack shout out, that game always has an epic soundtrack.

Finally I was waiting for this one!! Lol what that thing called Luke 🤣 😅

Pretty sure the Dark Troopers were in communication with eachother. The "punchers" stopped because they knew there was a bigger threat coming behind them.

Hope you liked this episode I sure did man I was one of the folks who cried during this episode

The voices sound similar because both Karl Urban (Billy Butcher) and Temuera Morrison (Jango & Boba Fett) are from New Zealand.

I love seeing peoples 5eacrion to Luke showing up. I geeked out when I saw the x wing, then lost it when I saw the green light saber

I just realized that the guy who plays the mad doctor was the same actor who had the love scene with the Gin (Jin?) in American Gods. The only time I cried in a sex scene.

Hey I've seen you comment on Nici's channel too. You got good taste my guy ✌

If you haven't already seen them, watch some of the other reactions to this season. The finale has grown men weeping.

"Are you a Jedi?" Luke is *THE* Jedi. This took place about 5 years after Star Wars Episode 6 Return of the Jedi so he already killed that creature.

Bo Katan is conflicted. There are Mandalorians who don't accept the way Bo got the Darksaber in the first place (someone found it and handed it to her) and we also have to remember Moff Gideon was, up until this point, in possession of the the Darksaber. Did he get it by defeating Bo in combat? So she got it in a way that was illegitimate and lost it in the traditional way. She technically HAS to get it back by combat. Mando has in essence "pulled the sword form the stone" and become the rightful ruler of Mandalore.

Dont worry about seeing Ahsoka again, she's getting her own D+ show.

I really like the theory that R2 may have known Grogu and maybe even helped him escape the Jedi Temple during Order 66

As far as testing Boba, my guess is she thought he was just a clone trooper, not one raised as a Mandalorian.

2:56 What We Do in The Shadows series man its great

this has got to be such a tough one to keep spoiler free these days. i was seeing it everywhere the morning after it aired.

Some times I wish he'd look at the names of the directors of these episodes. Peyton Reed and Robert Rodriguez are big names from a film making perspective, and explain some of the cool shot choices and a set pieces in some of the episodes! But otherwise, love the reactions ;D

My favorite moment was Luke's reveal. I know, I know, cheap, obvious, and corny, but as a lifelong SW fan from the days of the OT (the 80s), nothing compares to seeing Young Luke and the soft reprise of "Binary Sunset" after 37 years. It's just too goddamn powerful for someone my age who's been on this journey this long. It was the only bright spot in all of 2020 b/c the election was too horrible for even a happy ending to make it worthwhile. Seeing Luke reminded me what hope feels like.

Watched all the marvel stuff you have and this love this content and book of boba fett is really good you should watch

What you don't realize is skywalker said Ben was his first student but here grogu is ,what does that mean for the new films

I already knew that Luke was gonna be in this and I wish I didn't know but it's okay because the meat of the scene was the goodbye between Din and Grogu.

Great video bro was waiting too see this. you should watch house on haunted hill after the mandalorian a truly unique show that i know you'd love.
