The Mandalorian 1x08 Thoughts
Chapter 8: Redemption
+ I loved the Child's huge grin and palpable glee as he zoomed through the town on IG-11. That said how much of it was just the speed and how much was all the murder? It's a little worrying.
+ Greef's only idea being "do the hand thing baby" was amusing but I can't really blame him because Baby Yoda saved him multiple times doing just that. I loved that Baby Yoda's response was to lift his hand - and wave to him. Aww.
+ I really appreciate that Cara is intensely loyal to Din but there isn't a hint of a romantic or familial relationship.
+ I really enjoyed the opening bit with the scout troopers. It was fun. Their chill attitude about how troopers are basically red shirts, their obvious boredom, the failure at shooting (lol) made them kind of endearing but then they kept hitting poor Baby Yoda which was too far. Not on, dudes!
+ I loved the Child walking over to Din, embracing his legs and smiling up at him.
+ The Armourer's fight with the stormtroopers was great.
+ I found the Armourer's stubborn refusal to leave super risky and a little dumb. Sure, she can take on a group of them but there are a lot more on the planet.
+ I love the reveal that Cara is Alderaanian and hope we get more on that.
