Griffin

So the idea is that... Yeah, but they train him and he kind of is like, but I don't want to be a Jedi.

So the idea is that he's the first kind of hybrid.

That he's like the first Jedi Mandalorian.

But they don't do it... He's a force using Mandalorian.

They don't do it in this movie.

Yeah.

But season three, they're like...

He is canonically Din Grogu and when they start calling him Din Grogu, they don't stop calling him Din Grogu, which speaks to kind of what you're saying, which is this movie is in this insane damned if you do, damned if you don't place where the movies have just been on ice.

The TV shows have become this unwieldy thing.

Grogu as a character is the one thing that undeniably has been working for them.

Selling toys for seven years.

And you can just tell that this was a corporate mandate.

Favreau has said this himself, that they had season four at least like broken down into outlines, if not like basic like scriptments.

They had the season figured out.

And Disney was like...

Can you make a movie instead?

And they scrapped all of that and they wrote a new thing from scratch.

And it was because he said, A, it felt like what we had was designed for TV and it wouldn't work in film because you need to tell one cohesive story and not be episodic.

I would say this movie fails on that front.

It is crazy to me that it's not just several episodes mushed together, that he claims all of that was thrown out and that would potentially maybe be a season four episode.
