Don't forget about TRON: Legacy 10 years ago. Makes me wish they'd go back and re-do those effects.

Okay, now that I can breathe again between sobbing, screaming and cheering - here were my reactions in the moment:
In the face! I yield. I yield. ICara Dune.
OMG the Tie fighter launch! So cool!
Girl squad. Take a memo, rest of the current Star Wars universe - THAT is GRRL power. (Even if it's totally the GRRL power Endgame bit redux. lol Steal from the best, baby.)
What the hell. It's a squadron of Terminators. Jon Favreau, I love you, man.
Mando, the Terminators are coming - at least pull out your Darksaber rather than a blaster! Cuts through anything not beskar, remember???
Mando throwing himself bodily in front of the child. #fatherhood #beautiful
In tears now, flowing down my face, literally begging my TV to let this be Luke.
Single saber, not double.
Green.
The hand!
OMG, welcome home, my hero!!!
R2!!!!
Blubbering sobbing ugly crying stupid mess
OMG tag scene!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Literally standing up cheering, applauding and bowing to my television set!
THAT IS HOW YOU STAR WARS.
A pure master class and gift of love from fans to fans.
That was everything. Everything.
Bless Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni for giving this show to us.
And a few afterthoughts:
I love you, Pedro. What you have done with this role is truly skilled, powerful and inspiring...
The framing of *those* shots were so perfect. I don't care that it was all no doubt laid out exactly like this in the concept art. Props to Peyton Reed for pulling it all off!
I really like Cara Dune as well its just a shame about some of the controversy around some of the actresses political views and social media posts.

Fantastic episode for sure! Luke was absolutely the right choice. When I finally saw the green blade and the black glove, I just about lost it.
It makes me so mad when I think about the sequels and how they handled the legacy characters. This episode was how the fans wanted to be reintroduced to Luke Skywalker. It just goes to show, you can give the fans what they want, bring something new to the table, all while staying friendly to new viewers.

My 5 year old did not want me to watch this before her. So I told her I would get her up early and watch before school. So I hauled her out of bed at 5 AM, and we watched (image below from 5:01 AM with her Batuu-purchased Grogu and a hat my Secret Santa at work gave me yesterday). I cried. She cheered. My wife (who thinks we are crazy people) slept.
We just rewatched. She was so happy to see Luke. And R2. And I'm crying again. I love this show so much.

I woke up this morning and was beyond angry. First thing I saw on Twitter was #Frogwoman in reference to the Mandalorian. Spent the day convinced that the Frog Woman from earlier this season was secretly a Jedi and would be showing up to save the day....
HOLY CRAP was I wrong!!!!! I'm totally at a loss for words. Jon and Dave and the people running this show just get it! It's been SOOO LONG since someone running a Star Wars anything got it. And these guys finally get this universe and I am ECSTATIC!!!
Just a thought, since Disney took ownership of Star Wars they have released 700minutes of Movie content. Most fans would argue that a majority of that is just meh to down right hot garbage. Sure theirs a few golden minutes (looking at you Rouge One) but overall at minimum meh. In contrast they have released 648 minutes of TV (Disney+) content, even less if you account for the credits each week. They have put out LESS content on TV in the two years the show has ran and it is arguably some of the BEST Star Wars since Empire. I had stopped believing Star Wars could produce a hit in theaters, let alone one each week on TV. Yet they put out a solid episode every week. Its insane.

You sir are a lucky man! My daughter just turned 4 and is now just starting to get in to it. Very much looking forward to when her and I can share moments like this!

DH is shocked we made it this late in the day without seeing the spoiler. I avoided the “What’s Trending” on Twitter all day. DH said he did too but still thought someone in his world would have hinted or spoiled or something. I think it shows how protectful of SW people are. People should see this episode unspoiled.
I will miss Grogu though. I doubt we’ll see much of him to start season 3 as they tell other parts of the Mandalorian’s story. And I was surprised none of the “heroes” died.

The lone x-wing was a dead give away for me.
As far as the mistakes of the DT...Disney pooched it. They have all but admitted it. When the new head of LFL is installed next year...Vader’s fall will be complete.

Me too. I shouted it out. Then the green confirmed it. Then the glove and the framing. Wasn’t sure which method they would use to pull it off though. But glad Mark gets a happy and satisfying Star Wars ending after all. Will be interesting to see what he says on Twitter once most people have caught up.

So far he seems pretty unaware. Currently looking for some guidance on what he should watch next

You're lucky. I woke up this morning to someone complaining on my newsfeed about a stupid X-wing showing up and how too damn small the universe is. So yeah, that told me what to expect and I was NOT HAPPY.
And yet, until I saw that (CGI) face... I still held my breath in anticipation. And then I cried happy tears.

Did I call that Luke thing or what? Loved the epsiode. this version of Luke in his prime is what we should have gotten in the sequel trilogy.

Thank you. I stopped watching the episode as soon as the credits started. I read your post and immediately went back to continue watching. I would've missed that scene.What a beautiful episode. Also if you didn't watch the post-credit scene, you might want to get on that
