"I have no memory of having my memory wiped"
Mobius is still hilarious.
Great episode! At first, I kept on watching it from the straight-up angle of what is being shown and told: Meets a demon, gets a quest, tries to stop the apocalypse. But as the story goes on, I increasingly got a feeling like "Yeah, she seems a bit like a maniac talking to herself like that". And the deeper she went down that alley and became even confident in her "mission", the more unsure I got about the meaning of "apocalypse". Her final victim was just as good as that. And she couldn't stop it.
I'm not totally sure about the ending and why it makes her feel at peace, really. I like to imagine she's rather gone mad and now lives on with her made-up Boney M. friend in eternal oblivion (aka. her head --> in a mental institution, maybe) instead of enduring any more of the racism... and even worse things that are about to come with the new parliament.
If anyone has a different or deeper take on that, I'd be happy to hear it! :heart:
PS. Yeah, it's been a more supernatural season. If you don't like it, that's fine, but stop hate-spamming. You can still like the show for what it offers, even if it's not what you expected.
If I find a TV adaption compelling, I sure as hell will enjoy the books! Added to my "Want to read" list :)
I enjoy the thought of giving this more depth. And for the TV series, I'd find it interesting to get a next generation of main characters + Mr. Wade, to see what humanity comes up with over the years.
This episode was creepy and intense. It was not wild and in the last minute, it got phenomenal. I always have troubles crying in movies and series. And it wasn't even Ellie's outrage on the preacher, but that panic you could see and feel when Joel finally found her and held her close, and she was so terrified for what comes next. It were those 5 seconds that just overwhelmed me.
I should have known that the exceptional slick and unlikable 'French' guy actually has some positive traits. Yet here I sit and love how they turned his character upside down (including Edgar). Also, it took 5 episodes until I realized it's Jack Whitehall :sweat_smile: I'm bad at recognizing people.
This is my favorite episode of the season so far.
Season 3 finally felt like everything is coming together. I really liked it (although I was unsure about the direction this is going during the first 3 episodes) but it turned into a great arc for all Mandalorian in the later episodes.
And even though I enjoyed the journey, the last episode looked like a good closure to this particular story.
I wouldn't mind labeling the seasons a bit more into "segments" of Din Djarin's adventures - especially as the 3rd season was more about Grogu's development (beside the Mandalor arc).
So, the next season will again head into a different direction, I guess, and this makes the story feel very fractured.
