Is Baby Yoda a MacGuffin? [No. Let’s Discuss!]

I’ve got a bad feeling about this. People are going to have opinions. And I have an aversion to conflict. But here we go anyway.

It seems to be a commonly accepted idea that Baby Yoda is a MacGuffin. However, this is... not actually the case. Baby Yoda is not a MacGuffin.

And don't worry, if you don't know what a MacGuffin is, I explain the meaning of the term and where it came from.

There are two qualifiers for a MacGuffin, and I go into why neither of those is applicable to Grogu. I also vaguely explain what COULD have been a MacGuffin in The Mandalorian.

I do like The Mandalorian. And since it got so popular, it clearly works. And there's a really fine balance that MAKES it work, which I find really interesting.

ALSO. I originally had a clip from the Oops, I Did It Again music video, about the Titanic necklace. But YouTube made me trim it. BUT I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW. Because that was my favorite joke in the whole video. And I only made, like, three real jokes.

Here's the full "Dear Baby Yoda" song from The Ringer: https://youtu.be/c7EyOy0-Of0

(Here's a shocking fact about me: I'm not super into musicals, so I never really hopped on the Hamilton train. But I legitimately enjoy this Dear Baby Yoda parody of Dear Theodosia.)

-Some background into a super specific stereotype/stigma and how it is applicable to my life.

In the category of Things That Aren't Filmed Yet: I'm also working on a video of a random film from 2004 that nobody remembers but I think is unique and weird. I also started working on something about what I feel is the best sexy monster show (not Swamp Thing) for actual, non-sarcastic reasons. Right now, I have a lot of longer ideas that will take a while to put together... so I need to, like, get on that. I also want to do just some shorter quick videos about different episodes of Stargate SG-1 that I like. No real "hot takes." Just more of "this is nice and we all deserve nice things."
