I suspect S3 will be more about Mandalorian politics/power struggle as a result. I mean don’t forget he barely did any bounty work in S2, beyond jobs that came up while moving Grogu around.

Chekov says if you write a roided-up starfighter into a script, you're gonna have some dogfighting that needs it down the line.
They made it impossible to miss that it can outrun xwings too.

It honestly would not surprise me to find out it can out run the Millennium Falcon.

This is what I thought seeing it.
Installation 04
Installation 04, also known as Alpha Halo, or simply Halo, was one of seven ring-shaped superweapons that comprised the Forerunners' Halo Array. It was located in the Soell system in the Orion Arm and was the closest Halo ring to the human...www.halopedia.org
Yeah a couple xbox redditors were tweaking "lawl they're copying halo!!!" over on 4chan. They're being doxxed and swatted as we speak.

In the Boba Episode of Mandlorian he had his lineage prove that he was in fact Mandalorian, retconning anything Lucas has said. Also Djin Darin isn't blood Mandalorian so it's either the Mandalorian who know nothing of his heritage (Boba) or the outsider who was raised as one of them (Din).

To be fair.....letterkenney.gif
I remember seeing BoBF being referred to as "Mandalorian season 2.5" at least once by the higher ups involved with this show. Its just surprising that it all happened in one episode haha. Agree tho, I expect next episode and the finale to go right back to the BoBF feel and focus and it to play out exactly as you said.

i havent seen it marketed that way as Mando 2.5, if they had then thats an extremely unfair thing to do to a much beloved character as Boba Fett, its also sets it up for failure becuase only one episode so far has any thing to do with Mando and its entirely Mando. he isnt a recurring character so far like Cara Dune has been. i really dont want to be right that they hijacked this show with a Mando s3 episode, i just have no other explanation as to how this show has a mild budget while that one Mando episode looks like they spent a blockbuster movie budget to produce. all that being said, it was an incredibly made and well thought out episode. they get Gina back and Mando becomes my favorite TV show in the last ten years after Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

Yeah I am not sure where that episode came from to be honest. They have only been filming season 3 of Mando for a month or two at this point so while I get the idea that they used the season 3 premiere as this BoBF episode, I don't understand how it would have worked. Something isn't adding up in this, they could not have cranked something that good looking out so quickly. Maybe it was filmed as part of season 2 and held in reserve? I've got no clue.

weird thing is none of the "rumor" youtubers i watch has even touched on this anomaly either. maybe they had a decent budget for Boba but they spent it all on this one Mando episode, but if thats the case, then shouldnt Boba have been in it? its just weird.

that's right, totally forgot they did that. lucas made such a big deal about the fett's not being mandalorians, i don't know why favreau going against the grain didn't stick with me

these episodes are written 6-8 months before filming and not just "dropped" in, it was all planned over a year ago. It'll probably become super obvious next week when Boba and Mando team up.
I think the theory that eventually Boba Fett will acquire the darksaber (beat mando in single combat I presume) and become the leader of Mandalore makes a lot of sense, since Boba's pauldron symbol is the Mythosaur, which the Armorer straight up said will be a sign of Mandalore returning to greatness. Din Djarin's symbol is the Mudhorn.
Wouldn't be surprised if Boba Fett shows up in season 3 of Mandalorian, probably the Pykes have taken over Mandalore too so its all connected.
