The perfect combination of chivalry, cowboy style and mechanical technology

Petro Pascal's unsmiling, no-nonsense shooting role was a big departure from his previous style.

The Jedi Knight who appeared at the end really stood on the ceiling in the whole play, chopping melons and vegetables in front of a bunch of elite soldiers, as if they were in a no-man's land.

The Mandalorian really looks like a knight. It's really rare that this kind of non-full-body armor can be designed so well.

The black iron armor with strong metal texture is full of technological beauty. The helmet is not much different from that of Western knights. The long cloak of dark color is also a typical style of knight clothing. The cloak can be seen in a large number of rear-view shots, but because of the color Dark, its presence is not very strong, and it blends seamlessly with the characters and the scene.

The more interesting point is the ubiquitous western elements on the protagonist, such as the pistol pinned to the waist, the way to occasionally rotate the pistol, the camera where one hand is close to the gun belt and ready to shoot when the two sides face off, and the clothing in the gap between the armor combines the sense of modern technology and Western leather style, the entire protagonist has knight elements, western elements, and modern elements, and finally they can be integrated so uniformly. I have to say that the crew is really strong at the level of costume design.

The scene full of wasteland is really right.

Chapter 9: The Marshal quotes

  • The Mandalorian: They're laying out a bantha to protect the settlement. They've studied its digestion cycle for generations. They feed the dragon to make it sleep longer. Watch, the dragon will appear.

    [a Tusken Raider howls; with a rumble, the krayt dragon appears and devours it, ignoring the bantha]

    The Mandalorian: They might be open to some fresh ideas.

  • Cobb Vanth: What are the bones?

    The Mandalorian: That's the krayt dragon.

    Cobb Vanth: And those little rocks?

    The Mandalorian: That's us.

    Cobb Vanth: It's not to scale.

    The Mandalorian: I think it is.

    Cobb Vanth: Can't be. That's too big.

    The Mandalorian: [signing with a Raider] It's to scale.

    Cobb Vanth: I've only seen its head and neck. It's a whole lot bigger than I guessed. Might be time to re-think our arrangement.

    [after signing with Mando, a Raider adds more little rocks]

    Cobb Vanth: That's more like it. Where are they getting the reinforcements?

    The Mandalorian: I volunteered your village.
