Online Series: Star Wars: The Mandalorian (Part 2)

[S E P H]

It seems that both of these were to introduce more Star Wars "beasts" to the canon universe that we haven't seen before. Not sure if they meant it that way, but it seems next episode is when the hype starts when "supposedly" an Mandalorian is on Frog Planet. Personally, I quite like seeing these ultra dangerous beast, only part I dislike was how the X-Wing fighters randomly found them and then saved them.

Well, we have seen a Krayt Dragon skeleton and heard its roar before

And thankfully they went more for the original roar than the stupid edited one.

Also, toddlers love attention even if it's negative attention. We see Baby Yoda test Mando's patience a lot. The joys of being a parent.

In that case, you're not disagreeing with me. If the child kept eating the eggs because he loves negative attention and testing Mando's patience, then he knew what he was doing.

 

[RandV]

Have to disagree here. Not that it really matters, but...

I don't think there's a deeper element here. The eggs were something he's never seen before that could fit into his mouth, so he eats them (and seemingly likes the taste). Taking the ball off of the controller was something new he had figured out, so it intrigued him. I can't tell you how many times my son tools around with things like the controller. Once they figure out something new- they want to do it over and over again.

I took it as more of a natural diet thing. Based on ESB if you consider swampland to be a Yoda's natural environment then creepy crawlies like frogs, frog eggs, spiders, could be a Baby Yoda's natural diet. I saw him lighting up at the eggs out of recognition, not childish curiosity.

Apparently, that's an actual product from Funko. The only thing better would've been if his hand were reaching inside... or, wait, if you could fill it with M&Ms or something and snack on them, yourself.

Yes see, as far as I'm concerned to baby Yoda that's a cookie jar.

I had to laugh at this take: The Mandalorian Season 2, Episode 2 Will Make You Hate Baby Yoda

Clearly someone who has never been around kids and grew up an only child. Them motherf***ers will test limits and it's nice to see baby yodas behave the same (though I think him swallowing the eggs might end up saving the last of her spawn).

I hate what we've become

"Baby Yoda ate eggs, why must my life be so terrible!"

 

[MadDevil]

He literally ate actual live frogs last season and nobody had a problem with it. But eating unfertilized frog eggs? Offended!

If it makes you feel better, I did the same. I was genuinely perplexed that so many people here believed that he was alive, seemingly because Timothy Olyphant was wearing his armor (badly). It's a good thing that I decided to check the cast list at IMDb before posting.

Watch the end credits from Chapter 9. They always list the cast in order of appearance. Morrison's name was the last.

 

[MadDevil]

The Sarlacc definitely did a number on him. He'd only actually be like 37-38 years old at this point, but he looks way older.

Well Temuera Morrison is almost 60 years old.

That would be too easy.

Also, if you wore a metal helmet all of the time, especially on a desert planet, you probably wouldn't look too youthful, either. There's a reason why the insides of Hot Pocket sleeves are metallic.

Same thing happened to Obi-Wan between 3 and 4. Got way older.

They say Tatooine takes its toll on you

Everybody has to find something that offends them or gaslights them these days.

The eggs where from a highly intelligent alien life form that was wanting to save her family line that's a big difference from eating a live frog that is similar to what we have in the real world.

He doesn't look that bad all things considered

She repeatedly left the only things important to her alone with a toddler and didn't notice that their number kept decreasing. How highly intelligent can she be?

Not like the show really thought this far, but if you really want to get into the little details then from a naturalists perspective while a primate mother will give birth to a single child which it loves and nurtures an amphibian can lay hundreds of eggs of which only a couple, if any, may live long enough to reach adulthood and breed themselves.

Who knows what an intelligent species of frog people would be like, but considering they're not overrunning the galaxy you probably don't need to anthropomorphize them here.

Bad parenting seems to be a theme in this show.
