I don't disagree.
I was aware of the original title. I still think there's room for interpretation. And I suspect that it was left a bit vague on purpose.
Yeah, can't imagine waiting 3 years after ESB for some resolution. That must have been torture for fans back then. lol
Eps 1-3 are undoubtedly Anakin's story, 4-6 are Luke's story but are also Anakin's redemption story, and 7-9 are... what's left of Luke and Leia's story with some fresh faces tossed in?
That doesn't make a lot of sense... someone who is not a Jedi, cannot be the returning Jedi. Unless, the confrontation spoken of is the one at the end of ESB... but he technically loses that fight and is only left alive because Vader didn't keep hacking parts off of him (and ultimately, that the fall didn't kill him).
Anyway... it's semantics. And I don't remember the films word for word, so I'm definitely not an authority on the matter. It was just a curiosity.
I agree. It dilutes the importance of Luke in the Star Wars feature saga. Especially because if baby Yoda is 50 years old, and by then, Luke is in his 40s (isn't he?), then baby Yoda was around the galaxy before Luke was born. Hell, he could have been sitting off camera on Dagobah while Luke is training... or maybe a few miles off and Yoda didn't introduce the two of them simply for security reasons (and his concerns that he might flip like Anakin did).
Overall, I'm hella disappointed that there's any force or Yoda stuff in Mando.... but I think they're using the series as a bridge to help explain where Rey came from. I think our Mando is the one who stashed her on Jakku as a baby, because he knows she'll have a chance to survive there on her own.
Agreed on the force-ghost. Swapping him out for Hayden was a bad idea... and in fact, to me, it suggests that older Anakin never circled back around to the light, and that using Hayden as the force-ghost suggests that it was at that age where he ceased being a Jedi and became a Sith... as if that's the last point in Anakin's life where he had any good left in him and the force took a snap shot of him, considering that the latest point in his life where he has any good left in him, which is in direct conflict with what he says to Luke when his mask is off.
And it's hella insulting to the older actor who played Vader in that massively pivotal scene.
And he doesn't return to finish his training. His training is completed when he faces his father in ROtJ... so, Luke cannot 'Return' as a Jedi, because at that point in time, he is not a Jedi.
Therefore is must be referring to Anakin. ;)
(Unless the title is referring to Jedi in the plural form.)
I think it is necessary in the overall lore because I think it's part of a huge reveal for the latest trilogy...
What do you see at the 0:26 mark? And what do you think that could that mean for the series?

Imagine that Mando is the one who dropped Rey off on Jakku to keep her safe - like he just tried to drop off Yoda baby somewhere safe. Say, Mando actually loses baby Yoda to someone with loyalties to Palpatine (who in Mando's timeline we believe is dead). What if behind the scenes, Palpatine is just in hiding, and looking to create a hyper force-sensitive child... enlisting Herzog to hire Mando to find baby Yoda to extract some genetic material, and combining it with Palpatine's own force-sensitive genetic material, then making that individual a female at some factory on Kamino could end up being Rey's origin story. And maybe he's done so, in order to create a body that he can re-inhabit once it is ready... killing off the consciousness that we currently know as Rey.
And yet he’s told by Vader ‘you are not a Jedi yet’ near the end of the film.
Holy crap you guys are dumb. OBVIOUSLY there is no Google (I didn’t think I would have to spell it out), I’m referring to the in-universe, Star Wars version of an Internet.
You don’t think they have an Internet-type set-up in Star Wars? At the very least, Mando would have a database of known species on his ship. Hell, there are probably even species that have the intellectual power OF databases.
They don’t have tablets? Really? Come on dudes. They have personal, intergalactic space ships. They have databases, wifi, and tablets.
Is it? Or is it about Anakin returning to the light side right before his death? Hmmmmm??
That could have been dealt with in a single line of dialogue. Or even a Google search by Mando would tell hims baby Yodas are rare and valuable. It didn't need an entire episode.
