Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1

Character mistake: Cobb Vanth says that he's never seen anything but the dragon's head and had no idea about the size of the dragon...but at the beginning of the episode we could see the beast pass through town (conveniently right in the main road without damaging anything else) and its enormous lengthy body was perfectly noticeable.

Continuity mistake: During the flashback of Cobb's revenge, it's obvious that the reaction shot of him taking a hit that is absorbed by the armor is edited in introducing an artificial pause into the pace of the action; the person that is slumping after being hit is still falling after his long dramatic pause in close-up.

Other mistake: The acid the dragon spits is purported as highly corrosive, literally melting people, however Mando is unaffected by it despite being bathed in it. His armor might be Beskar, but there are plenty of spots (those that his enemies constantly seem to miss) that are not. He should be at least in some discomfort and in need to change, and not carry around his neck a cape soaked in venomous dragon vomit.

Continuity mistake: The villagers and the raiders united just got near the cave. One of the Tusken raiders is by the cave checking for vibrations. He has his rifle in the right hand, then after a cut to the Child he's got the rifle in the left. (00:37:35)

Plot hole: The Tusken raiders offer a Bantha to the dragon to make it sleep longer. To do, so they wake it up, which seems to defeat the point, but let's assume they know what they are doing and the dragon catches up on sleep later. Regardless, the dragon already ate one the day before. If it does not stay put even after just eating a Bantha a day before, it's hard to imagine how feeding it can be productive, considering that they all live in a desert and have just a literal handful of large mammals. The dragon should have eaten them all in a week, at that rate.

Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: The Tusken raider that was herding the sacrificial Bantha is eaten by the tapeworm dragon and the others look at the scene through Toro Calican's binoculars. The straps on the binoculars are dropping straight in one shot, tangled above it in the next. (00:30:30)

Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: The Marshall and Mando have a casual conversation between speeder bikes, even when the sound the engines make at that speed is deafening (there's a sample of it during the establishing shots!) and the sound of their words wouldn't propagate properly. He also must be wearing an invisible Mandalorian helmet or use beskar-based gel, because his hair barely moves. (00:20:25)

Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: At the end of the fight with the two Gamorreans (just after the reaction shot on the Child), one of them swings the axe to the torso of the other, who takes a direct hit under the raised, weaponless arm. Which is the left, then the right. (00:05:10)

Chapter 9: The Marshal - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: Mando ties the hook cable at the base of the post but when he talks to the monocular scumbag the rope is just coming down straight with no trace of the diagonal part that ties it to the base - you can notice it distinctly well when he blasts the lights away and the whole top part of the post is perfectly lit. (00:07:35 - 00:08:20)

Chapter 8: Redemption - S1-E8

Greef Karga: He missed!
The Mandalorian: He won't next time.
Cara Dune: Our blasters are useless against him.
Greef Karga: Hey, let's make the baby to the magic hand thing. Come on, baby! [Waving his fingers] Do the magic hand thing. [The Child coos.] I'm out of ideas.

More trivia for The Mandalorian

Answer: In (non-canon) Legends, Thrawn was the central character of a trilogy of novels by Timothy Zahn. He was a Chiss officer in the Imperial Navy, who rose to the rank of grand admiral despite being non-human. Thrawn was brought into canon in the Star Wars Rebels series, where he commanded the Empire's Seventh Fleet and led the occupation of Lothal, which was opposed by the series' protagonists including Ahsoka Tano. In the final episode of Rebels, the Jedi and Rebel Ezra Bridger commands Purrgil space whales to drag Thrawn's Star Destroyer into hyperspace, jumping to an unknown location with himself and Thrawn on board. The final scene of the series shows Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren leaving Lothal to search for Bridger, and presumably Thrawn.
