Yeah, but wasn't that Almec? He was pretty solidly in the New Mandalorian corner, so we don't know how the warrior clans felt about Jango.

Well if all of them cling to family and Mandalore as tightly as House Viszla and Jango was a lone merc, I don't think they had a high opinion of him.

It's been a long time since we've seen Zare. Do you think they've forgotten about him?

Someone in this thread said his story was continued in a children's book series. Why they'd do something like that I don't know. He seems like the kind of character they'd bring back.

Jango isn't Mandalorian. This was confirmed in a bonus feature in The Clone Wars season 2 box set.

Would that be legends or canon?

Why does he look and act like one of he isn't mandalorian?

In Legends, at least, I believe he was raised by them after his parents were killed by Death Watch.

His story wasn't continued in a book series, it originated in one. Servants of the Empire: Edge of the Galaxy came out two weeks before Breaking Ranks aired. He was never going to come back because he was the Hero of Another Story, and the goal was always cross-promotion and universe building.

In fact, the scene where he appears in Vision of Hope is also shown from his perspective in Servants of the Empire: Imperial Justice, the third book in the series.

Whowho: Neither, I think. Arguably, it can be treated as canon, because it was part of the production of TCW. But since it's never been properly addressed in an actual story, it's still possible for it to change.

For what it's worth, Pablo Hidalgo did tweet out that the Fetts are not Mandalorian.

Still not technically canon unless an actual published source confirms it.

Like, I'm not opposed to the idea, but Lucasfilm personnel simply saying "they're not Mandalorian" without explaining what they actually are is far too vague for me to completely accept.

A Mandalorian Jedi sounds pretty badass.

[up][up] That's the title. And I was at work, so I didn't have time to say anything else. :P

Tying into the thread, I guess Ezra and Kanan are for sure no longer around 30 years after Yavin.

OR they're not Jedi 30 years after the battle of Yavin.

I bet they'll cease to be Jedi after Yavin but before Endor. Eaten by teddy bears?

We don't even know if the title is supposed to be literal. Maybe everyone is calling Luke/Rey the "Last of the Jedi" and the premise of the movie is to either change that or prove it untrue.

Not to mention "Jedi" is both the singular and plural. "The Last Jedi" could mean the single one left, but it can mean the last five left just as well. tongue

Or it could be an honor thing, rather than a literal thing. Even if there are other ex-Jedi or light siders wandering around the universe trying to do good, Luke is still thematically the Last Jedi, the person left who really embodies the Jedi's potential and legacy.

The same could be said, for example, for Yoda at the time Luke met him in ESB - The Last Jedi would've been an apt title for that movie as well.

It could also be "Last" as in "previous"

It appears there are some Death Star or Krennic-related interests on Lothal. Which makes sense, if the big secret thing they're doing on Lothal turns out to be mining Khyber Crystals.
