Alien: Earth Ep 8 Finale Breakdown + Weyland-Yutani vs Empire + Mando and Grogu Trailer Deep Dive
Description
This week’s episode opened with Matt fielding Ask Me Anything questions solo, including a wild one: Would he become a hybrid like Wendy from Alien: Earth? Matt’s answer was a clear yes. Who wouldn’t want to be a walking supercomputer with enhanced strength?
He then moved into a review of the HIM movie. While the premise had promise, Matt didn’t think it fully lived up to its potential—or its title.
The main feature was a deep dive into the first teaser trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu. Matt explored possible plot threads, predicting that the Hutt Cartel—possibly even the Twins—could be the film’s main antagonists. Nick joined midway through to finish out the trailer breakdown and add his own speculation.
From there, they jumped into a full review of the Alien: Earth finale. Nick enjoyed it overall, but Matt felt it left too many storylines hanging without a clear path to resolution unless a second season is confirmed.
