He was the director behind <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ant-Man <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ant-Man and the Wasp <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and brings a really exciting energy to this episode, taking us from one locale to another with a smile on our faces.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_2 --><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s clear there\u2019s a lot of fascinating film influences here, but <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Predator <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alien <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">might seem to be the most obvious. The Mandalorian has a heat vision mode in his helmet that even has the same grainy VHS quality as that of the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Predator<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the field of alien spider-eggs and their green ichor look inspired by <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Xenomorph<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The spiders appear to be kryknas, the spiders crawling around the rebel base on Atollon, the planet they occupied before they were able to take residence on Yavin IV. Because of their striking resemblance to the kryknas, I was half expecting the child to intercede with the Force. It turns out, though, he was more interested in eating that poor frog woman\u2019s eggs instead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, that running joke through the whole episode, culminating in the final gag, was so well done and exactly indicative of the sort of visual comedy Peyton Reed is so good at. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It reminded me very much of the crashing <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thomas the Tank Engine <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ant-Man. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reed is really great at selling that small joke in the middle of something tense in a way that adds to the tapestry of the scene or sequence, rather than break the tension completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Guest_Stars\"><\/span><b>Guest Stars<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This episode had more than a few notable guest stars. The first to mention is Misty Rosas. Rosas provided the physical performance of the Ughnaught Kuill in the first season and comes back here to perform the frog lady. She has such an interesting physicality, especially when she\u2019s leaping away from spiders. Her voice, though, is provided by none other than Dee Bradley Baker, the voice behind all of the clones and many of the creatures on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Star Wars: The Clone Wars <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Star Wars Rebels.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Viewers might also recognize the voice of Richard Ayoade, who reprises his role as the voice of the droid Zero.<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_3 --><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The X-Wing pilots, Captain Carson Teva and Trapper Wolf, are played by Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> Executive Producer and sometimes director Dave Filoni, respectively. And the more I think about it, the more I think Trapper Wolf is a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">M*A*S*H<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> reference, trading out John for Wolf, which is an animal Dave Filoni is known for smuggling into <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Star Wars.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_look_out_for\"><\/span><b>What to look out for<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether the spiders are specifically the same krykna from rebels or not, they share their inspiration from a Ralph McQuarrie painting. Both the spiders and the eggs come <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/starwars.fandom.com\/wiki\/Krykna?file=RMQ-KnobbyWhiteSpider.jpg\">straight from this vision of a massive spider on Dagobah<\/a>.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0The art first appeared alongside the written work of Kevin J. Anderson, most notably <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Illustrated Star Wars Universe.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Mos Eisley cantina is always a place to look out for interesting creatures and easter eggs. While Peli Motto plays sabacc with a creature who goes by the named of Dr. Mandible, there are plenty of other denizens to be seen. An EV-9D9 like droid tends bar (just like in season one) and a dusty Gigoran can be seen in the background as well. Dr. Mandible himself seems to be in the same mold as the praying mantis-like creature found in the original scene in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A New Hope. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The table where they play sabacc looks very close to the same table where Han shot Greedo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Peli Motto\u2019s, the hunk of Krayt dragon meat is cooked by podracer engine and a droid, just like the ronto meat you can witness being cooked in Galaxy\u2019s Edge. The droid spinning the spit in this episode is a Treadwell, who was first seen on the Lars Homestead. With Treadwell <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">R5, it makes one wonder if Peli Motto just took <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of the droids that survived the destruction of Lars Homestead.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Coda\"><\/span><b>Coda<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While this episode lacked some of the epic scale of the fight with the Krayt dragon, it made up for it with a delicate balance of scares and laughs. The sequence with the kryknas (or whatever spider creature they may turn out to be) is genuinely thrilling and claustrophobic, and the way the sequence is edited really puts that terror into perspective. The comedy really comes in some understated moments and the timing is just great. This might have been the best use of Amy Sedaris so far, and the timed gags like the jetpack bit and the child\u2019s egg theft obsession make this a really fun episode. And the dry wit of lines like \u201cI don\u2019t know where he thinks he\u2019s goin\u2019 in that thing\u201d put it all over the top.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The downside is that this might be tiresome for some viewers who want to get to the overarching plot and don\u2019t have patience for these side-adventures. For me, anything that helps explore the outer edges of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Star Wars <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">universe is a good thing and this certainly did that. More than that, it really showed how much of a hero Din Djarin is becoming. He\u2019s not just the cold-blooded bounty hunter we met in the series premiere. He\u2019s grown into something with much more heart, even if he\u2019s done so begrudgingly. Episodes like this really bring that into focus.<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_4 --><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will we get back to the bigger story next episode?
