okay but like you have to admit that it was cool though

2:24 "This is America, baby" says the Australian.

Nough Timestamps 0:08 1:20 6:28 Good video, Fringy! It’s really nice to get quick and helpful advice about writing condensed into an entertaining and sarcastic video.

I RHYTHMICALLY AND REPEATEDLY HIT MY HANDS AGAINST EACH OTHER ONCE MY BRAIN INTERPRETED THE AUDIOVISUAL CUES THAT IT RECOGNIZED

Luke’s appearance is so lackluster. There’s SO much opportunity, but all he does is just walk in and go “hey I need to borrow this baby ok thanks bye”

Example of fan service done well: Captain America finally lifting Thors hammer. Example of fan service done badly: Muh Melenium Falcon goes brrrrrr, muh shooty shooty smuggler, muh "Hey look it's Lando" scene

Fringy, I sympathize with you so hard in the first half of your video. Words cannot describe how much I want to tell my own story, only to be plagued by the self-doubt that my work will never be as good as I dreamed of it being, and it sucks.

Disney’s Lucasfilm - Star Wars: The Mandalorian Season 2 featuring Luke Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Baby Yoda, Boba Fett, Bo-Katan, Carl Weathers, Fennec Shand, Moff Gideon, Gina Carano, Bill Burr, Timothy Olyphant, Frog Lady, more Mandalorians, more guest appearances, Dave Filoni pilot, spiders, Kryat Dragon, fish people, useless stormtroopers, dubstep dark trooper droids, that guy from Transformers: Age of Extinction.............oh and also Mando, I guess

A new Fringy video! Nough way!

But the dangling keys are so dangly so pretty i like

I've seen enough efap that this is barely a blip on my radar. Sticking around for 12 hour livestreams builds endurance

Alternative title: Why Mandalorian’s season 2 finale sucks

He did it! That mad man realy did it!

The fact such writing is being rewarded to such a degree is quite disheartening to see, however it is reassuring to see that there are those that still pursue a higher calibre of writing :)

Haileys comet returns more than often than I see a fringoloid video in my sub box

No One: Modern Film and Tv: "I got those keys that jingle jangle! As I go riding merrily along."

In regards to Mando second season, I'll admit; I loved the Luke scene from an emotional, cathartic perspective. But I do agree it doesn't make a lick of sense from what I've heard. It's why while I'm not against fan service in general, as mentioned in my past comment I recognize it can be very hollow given how the lack of effort/ work was put into having earned the said payoff. Heck, to use a food analogy; it's like being served a Big Mac. Yeah, that Big Mac might fill your appetite, especially if you have been given crap/ not eaten. But it isn't the same as a home-cooked meal or something made by a professional chef who made something whose taste/flavor gets better with each bite and will forever stay with you. And that's what I argue is what separates good from great fan service and writing in general.

2:24 You’re not from Australia? You lied to me, Fringy!! YOU LIED TO MEEE!!

One nit pick: The milk way is estimated to be larger than the average galaxy, I think, so the astronomical size of the Star Wars galaxy may be slightly less astronomical. Doesn't discredit any of your points though.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it funny that the Australian fire place is just a chimney with a light? Might be used to keep the Emus away.

Even writing just a good story is a lot harder than people think. I get it, but that’s why there’s a high bar to objectivity to begin with; it’s to push people and get them motivated and let their creative side run wild, but keep it tempered, sensible, and believable. That’s why the late 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s had so many movies we all love to this day; projects that had genuine creativity and ambition. And here we are today, where ‘key jangling’ is such a staple because they know their movies will never meet the quality of the originals, so they have to ride the wave to keep themselves relevant

Exactly what I needed after watching The Mandalorian season 2, better known as "Star Wars if cameos were the only appeal" the show.

One could call Mando "Jangle Fett"

Wait, wait... Fringy, did you just say that proofreading is a necessity when writing a story? Bollocks; I'll have you know that statement is highly offensive and downright incorrect. I have this opinion on good faith, thanks to the brilliant mind HiTop Film's Anyway, my least favorite kind of fanservice is when a movie or tv show plays an iconic character theme to try and remind you of when said IP used to be good... Like Superman's theme in Justice League, or any of the music from the sequel trilogy.

Key jangling is really a good way to describe it. The entire plot of the Battlestar Galactica (2003-2009) is more likely to have happened than Luke showing up at the moment he did. Luke would have had to have been in the exact direction that the star destroyer was heading for that to happen the way it did because the signal he got was on the planet. The odds of that happening in a single small town are low, let alone a fucking galaxy.

Knee rockets: kewl in theory, ridiculous in practice.

Thank you for making some more videos Fringy! We all love your stuff, and your opinions.

We need the whole series on "Bad Writing Advice" :o I'd watch and share all of them !

the deep faked Luke gives me that sick feeling in my stomach, its beyond creepy to me that they can do that sort’ve thing

Cobra Kai Fan Service is so great and fundamental it is hard to tell where it begins/ends

Fringy's return was one of the best things that happened in 2020. Glad to see that you're making videos again

Kratos getting his blades back was good and done well

How relevant this is to Ashoka

Without a journey, the destination is just the start with a lot of wasted time in-between.

The Mandalorian is EXTREMELY overrated.

I'm glad you made this Fringy because I was just thinking about this as an aspiring writer. For me, the best kind of fan service should come in service to details/ elements that are already in place and in turn serve as payoff via a chekoff's gun. What do I mean by this? Well, let me use an example: My Hero Academia. There will be MANGA SPOILERS for the series so if you are anime onlys, you might want to avoid this. There was a moment during the current arc of My Hero where Bakugou Katsuki pushes Midoriya out of the way to save him from All From One and we get a homage where Bakugou says quote "My body moved on its own". This calling back to the first arc of My Hero Academia where Midoriya did the same to save Bakugou. Why this moment was so good was due to a few reasons. One is that it represents the capstone of Bakugou's character arc. While starting off as a bully, Bakugou clearly throughout the series has moved away and taken on the traits of Midoriya. You saw this directly with how he was assessing Shoto's abilities during the Sports Festival arc of the second season but also very subtly as shown in the fourth season when he convinced the arrogant kid to not look down upon others. This in reference to Midoriya's own ability to connect with kids as shown with Kota and Eri, respectively. And in turn Horikoshi does a phenomenal job tying this all together with Bakugou expressing finding something that he lacks and his conversation with All Might and how he admits he picked on Midoriya due to his own weakness. Something that was showcased throughout the first two seasons with him being so frustrated at Midoriya/ angry and even the third season with Bakugou admitting he feels lost due to seeing Midoriya grow so quickly. Combine that with the monologue earlier in the arc where Bakugou reaffirms he'll keep pushing himself in spite of Midoriya's growing power and that he'll be number one, the moment of Bakugou's self-sacrifice wasn't something that came out of nowhere. It took the details I mentioned above and gave a worthwhile pay off that was logical in terms of utilizing the past details strung throughout the past arcs/ seasons BUT also emotionally resonates given it is the capstone of Horikoshi's efforts to recontexualize Bakugou's past actions and thus adding necessary context. (SPOILERS END) In short, that bit of fan service showcased in My Hero for me really is such a great example because the details are such layered and in turn it is logically established given how Horikoshi reminds the readers and isn't out of left field.

Great content Fringy. Helpful and well executed.

Hey how are You Doughing

Great Review of Mando season 2 Fringey!

Frogald made an upload? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

So happy you're making videos again

Good shit bro

This is a really well done video man. Good job!

We love you fringy

I didn't think this channel was habitable but now there's a new video I know it is!

Slight correction on the 400 billion planets figure. The Milky Way is estimated to have anywhere from 100-400 billion stars within it. Planets as a number are next to impossible to get a number for as with our current technology, stars emit much easier figures for us to detect.

Boba Fett said he was tracking Mando after he discovered he had his armor in the first episode of season 2

FRINGY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love you man, keep on keepin on! 100% agree with you. the tie in clips throughout the MCU showed how big and interconnected the world was, but I bet a lot of people, including some people at Disney was like, hey people like seeing other people from other stories. lets just use their names and likeness for miniclips! p.s. Disney wonders if they should apply any effort towards making money in Star WAS. their answer? - NOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A replacement for wolf we will not find nor should we dare. But this rage is the right seed, feed the rightious anger good sir. We need this man, even if he be a greenmen. Australia is a lie.

This was my first fringy video after 3.5 years

Currently working in a Halo machinima and I am getting nervous on shit on how I’m gonna properly write it down and make it happen in footage. It will be my first endeavor for such a thing. After seeing EFAP, Arby n the Chief, and any decent show and movie. I hope I can make some engaging amusing content. Thank you Fringy and co for all the insight of media spectrum.

Oo jingly (◇▪︎◇ )

Couldn’t have said it better myself Froggled. Keep it up man

Fringled made a video yay

Fyngul the fuck?! Your videos are really good. Give us more!!!

Hellough.

Nough way, a fringy video! Jingle Jangle those keys!

All hail the frogold

Holy fk my fellow aussie has graced us with a video! Praise the don!

Nough. I agree. That is all. Cheers, Fringald.

Great video

“Do you remember Boba Fett”: A Fringy Perspective

Fringy take a look at Manitoba 🇨🇦 It's Cheap there lots of Rural Areas and Nature where don't have to be near a Big City In Northern Part they have Wild Polar Bears Tours

You should go on EFAP, I think you'd fit right in...

There is a novel series, "The monogatari series," that completely explains within the story how fan service can be amazing and have a a crucial importance to the plot

Fing-Daddy-G... the Jingler of Keys

I have DOZENS of ideas. Without writing them into stories, they're worthless.

Fringy-“Cause this is America Baby!” Says the Black Aussie.

welcome back >:D< you have been missed

It's the green man!

I started to realize that he was talking about mandolorian

Not a bad video Froggald! Can't wait to see more! But, uh...7 minutes. C'mon. Those are rookie numbers. Become one with the long!

Becoming a great writer is similar to going to the gym. In that, it’s a journey that requires a high level of discipline with no clear end. You can achieve goals, but there is always another goal around the corner. Something greater. Key jangling is a popular practice among many hacks in high budget media today. It’s lazy and sad.

Fringy. Who is the sock puppet with the green laser sword? He reminds me of happy things. You made me happy with that image of some thing i like. You are a amazing writer and director. Please run all of the media i like with your deep writing. Are you reading this disney? Did you learn anything DISNEY!?

Gotta give it up for boba fett!

This needs more views. Srsly, i really enjoy his presents on efap and his videos should be viewed goddammit.

Please make more videos!

Preach!

I don't think Luke being there is an issue. My issue was the encounter with Mando. He had no questions and everyone was okay with him taking baby Yoda even though Mando didn't really know much about Luke (somehow). And the edge robot were dumb. With some actual dialogue "How did you find us" I'm sure it would have made more sense. But alas now I'm writing the story. So close yet so far, c'mon Disney just get one.

DISNEY: “I’m in me moms car. Vroom, vroom!” ME: STOP! Gimme the keys!

Frogald has spoken

THE LORD RETURNETH

Good job, Fringle.

You're a fucking great youtuber!

Yeah, but... Shiny Keys!!

Fring-Daddy’s angry

I have been saying this for months: The Mandalorian dangles pretty nostalgia (and an Ewok/porg hybrid for cuteness) in front of y’all’s faces and you gave up the cause to give Disney money for a subpar effort. It’s like World of Warcraft players idolizing the Mists of Pandaria expansion because “it wasn’t as bad as everything else that came after it”. And before you say “b-but I’m pirating the show, I’m stealing from the rich to give to the lazy. That makes my slavish devotion to memberberries totes okay”, let me just say that 1) Disney pays Gina Carano and therefore you’re robbing (and not truly supporting) her, and 2) all the praise you keep giving it is helping Disney in the long run.

“Nough-ts”

Wouldn't it be cool if The Mandalorian was actually about bounty hunting?

Have we reached the point where even Fringy videos come out more often than E;R ones?

REMEMBER BOBA FETT?!?!?!?

Who gave fringy a thesaurus

Ah, what a pleasant surprise. I’ve been ripping my fucking hair out going for the Perfect Relics in Crash 4. Hopefully this video can keep me from going bald for a few minutes.

But Fringy.... do you redraft your scripts? Love you aussie frog man. Keep heading for that goal.

2:24 Says the Australian.

Chasmy

How I felt about S2 E3.

Quadrillions of beings in a galaxy Fringles. Realistically Coruscant should have at least a few quadrillions living on it alone
