That was easy
Mandalorian Suggestion
I just watched the latest release of The Mandalorian, and found it enjoyable as usual. It was entitled The Jedi, so I knew it had provoking potential.
I did have one scene or two I would do differently. I believe Disney missed a good opportunity to show The Mandalorians finesse while literally doing nothing.
He met The Jedi. She told him she would tell him where to take, The Kid, if he helped her rescue three prisoners from a fortress. He stated,
“A Jedi and a Mandalorian, they won’t see us coming.”
A good line but wasted by Disney.
They are standing before the fortress.
Next they are inside fighting it out with bad guys, finally returning outside with the prisoners.
Good action scenes, but lacking one REALLY COOL REVELATION.
Here’s how I would do it…
They are standing outside the fortress when Mando, as he’s sometimes called, makes his statement, “They won’t see us coming.”
Next scene they are standing outside the fortress WITH the prisoners.
Mando says, “That was easy.”
Kind of like, “Wanna see my fast draw?…Wanna see it again?”
The prisoners are insignificant. They mean nothing, with no speaking parts between them.
Mando says, “You are free. Fly home and live your lives. But don’t get caught again.”
The Jedi says, “We are going back inside to take care of some unfinished business.”
Then they go inside and do the action scenes. Nothing is lost.
I think My Way makes them look Very intimidating.
