He is a baby, yeah.

Embo is a character from the TV show, The Twins, Adam Arkin in Clone Wars.

And I think watching this, I'm like, oh, the reason I call this a children's movie is because a lot of the writing and the dialogue

does remind me of an episode of Clone Wars.

This is a lot of Dave Filoni's original characters.

It's told in the middle of a story, so you don't actually have to push the Star Wars narrative forward that much.

So what I was left with watching this is I'm like, well, I think it pushed Grogu as a character forward.

I don't know if it did the same thing for Mando.

I almost think like Mando as a character was a little bit in stasis.

And it speaks to me volumes that the best part of this movie does not have Mando in it at all.

It is basically a silent film with Grogu.

And that to me was just like, this could have just been a 20 minute short film.

And I would have been even more, like I wanted more of that section when Grogu's trying to save Mando.

I think they might have been, like, this... The Mandalorian lore...

honestly scared people.

Where I'm like, as much as I did want them to push the narrative forward in Star Wars, I was happy that we weren't in Darksaber territory.

Absolutely.

Star Wars is in its Drake era.

Now that you're saying it, Star Wars is right where Drake is now, where it is like, all right,

You you get throttled so bad and the public is so tired of you that this movie feels like, oh, do you guys want a little nostalgia?
