    The Mandalorian Chapter 22: Guns for Hire

    The Mandalorian Chapter 22: Guns for Hire. Does Chapter 22 of The Mandalorian, GUNS FOR HIRE, deserve its rep as a bad episode? Matt and John explore the mysteries of this episode to uncover: - The heights of outer rim fashion in the Galaxy Far, Far Away - Whether stunt casting works well - If tying the Clone Wars into the Mandoverse works for casual fans - Whether the lost Rangers of the New Republic series sent a script here again - Why Christopher Lloyd was cast - If it’s an uneven episode that could have worked better if there were more than 8 episodes in a season. Did this episode of Season 3 deliver something special, or was it another misfire? As we all anticipate the release of The Mandalorian & Grogu, John & Matt are celebrating with a rewatch and detailed discussions of The Mandalorian, Season 3.

  3. The Mandalorian Chapter 21: The Pirate

    May 19

    The Mandalorian Chapter 21: The Pirate

    The Mandalorian Chapter 21: The Pirate. Episode 21 of The Mandalorian, THE PIRATE, is a great episode hampered by its placement in the season, and a resolution that’s less than satisfying. Ride along in this combat-ready episode for: - Thrilling air battles above Navarro - The fate of Captain “Easter Basket” Shard - A new home for the Mandalorians - Bo Katan being shown to lead a new way forward for the Mandalorians Did this episode of Season 3 deliver more worthwhile development, or was it another misfire?

    May 15

    Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord

    Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord. The character of Darth Maul showed up first in The Phantom Menace, a villain of few worlds but one that was forever etched in fans minds as one of the coolest they’d ever seen, which meant he just couldn’t stay dead forever.  In this episode of Aggressive Negotiations we crossover with The 602 Club so Matthew Rushing and John Mills can talk about Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord. We discuss, Maul’s arc, Devon’s Arc, Lawson’s arc, Inquisitors, the Dark Lord of the Sith, connecting to Solo, the animation, the music and our ratings.  Host John Mills and Matthew Rushing You’ve found the best Star Wars podcast with one-of-a-kind discussions in the spirit of fun!

    The Mandalorian Chapter 20: The Foundling

    The Mandalorian Chapter 20: The Foundling. Episode 20 of The Mandalorian, THE FOUNDLING, features a lot of firsts, and explores more of Bo Katan’s religious experience with Din Djarin. It delivers: - Djarin introducing Grogu & the viewers to Mandalorian combat training.  - Bo-Katan leading a hunting party, which includes Djarin and Ragnar's father Paz Vizsla.  - A rhyming flashback for Grogu as the Armorer forges a new piece of Mandalorian armor for him, just like Din in Season 1. - Ahmed Best’s cameo Jedi Master Kelleran Beq during Grogu’s visions of his rescue from the Jedi Temple.  - Bo-Katan reveals her encounter with the Mythosaur while the Armorer replaces Bo-Katan's pauldron Did this third episode of Season 3 deliver more worthwhile development, or was it another detour?

  6. The Mandalorian Chapter 19: The Convert

    Apr 28

    The Mandalorian Chapter 19: The Convert

    The Mandalorian Chapter 19: The Convert. Episode 19 of The Mandalorian, THE CONVERT, promised time to explore Bo Katan’s religious experience with Din Djarin during his dive in “The Mines of Mandalore.” But it takes a sharp left after a thrilling TIE Interceptor battle in space and atmosphere. It goes on to deliver: - The fate of Doctor Pershing, the mad scientist who cared for Grogu even though he did mad scientist experiments on him; - Details about the Republic’s attempts to assimilate Ex-Imperials back into regular life; - Travel biscuits that, in the 1980s, would have been turned into Pepperidge Farm goodies sold at Safeway; - Details about Republic bureaucracy that seem fit for a different show that got cancelled before it was made; - Maybe an indication of bribery? Deep conspiracy? Something? Did this third episode of Season 3 continue the excellent momentum from the second episode, or was it as much a descent into madness for the audience as it was for Pershing? As we all anticipate the release of The Mandalorian & Grogu,  John & Matt are celebrating with a rewatch and detailed discussions of The Mandalorian, Season 3.

    The Mandalorian Chapter 18: The Mines of Mandalore.

Was this second episode of Season 3 a quick course correction for Season 3, or more rough television?

We also learn: - Navarro has changed a lot - Tatooine is the place for everything Outer Rim - Bo Katan has lost her team - Mandalore may be habitable after all - The difficulties of establishing story continuity across shows Was this first episode of Season 3 a strong start, or a stumble out of the gate?
