Disney will never kill off Ahsoka. She'll get her own spinoff series so they can keep monetizing her. She's a girl jedi with 2 lightsabers and recognizable tailhead things. The costumes alone are worth keeping her.

Well canonically she has to be killed at some point prior to the original trilogy because Yoda and Ben are the last surviving Jedi in the galaxy.

I'm just wondering how they resolve Ahsoka's definitely canon death with the fact that as a character in a children's cartoon she can never be killed.

Rebels has already hinted that that simply isn't going to be the case, just the rest are either in hiding or turned. Obi Wan and Yoda are just the last two surviving Jedi MASTERS

Ok, uh "she went into hiding".

Optionally, in fact probably, add "also she saved the galaxy 10 more times or whatever but it was all behind the scenes and because of [plot device] word never got out that it was actually a jedi who saved the day" even in midst of the GCW.

It makes sense, kinda. Considering Masters were the only ones hat really taught people to be Jedi Knights, and any surviving knights would have been the easiest to track since the Republic kept tabs on them, all that would be left would be padawans who just lucked out and weren't near their masters when poo poo went down

They wouldn't have to just kill Ahsoka, they'd have to kill Ezra and Kanan too. So either there's more than two Jedi, or Rebels ends with everybody dying.

Death Star plans? Ashoka handed them to whoever but they never knew their mysterious contact was actually a jedi!!!!

Bothan spies? They got that poo poo from Ashoka, but she had them claim public credit to protect her true identity!!!!

Battle of Hoth? Ashoka was taking poo poo nasty shots with the planetary ion cannon until the final moments of the battle, then stowed away on a Star Destroyer pretending to be a cantina dancer. They never knew she was a jedi!!!!

Regarding Ashoka and Vader, they'll probably do a Force Unleashed and have her win a "symbolic victory" that means nothing to the larger story.

You're thinking of someone different, Wedge was technically played by two people in ANH.

Briefing room Wedge was dubbed over, Cockpit Wedge was Denis Lawson and was not dubbed over and went on to play the character in the rest of the movies, and a video game, and I think a couple audiobooks.

Well to be fair his role in TFA would have been "standing around a briefing table in a glorified cameo" like Ackbar. At least with audiobooks and voice acting, he actually has something to do, likely has more than 2 lines, and he can show up in pajamas and still get the job done just as well.

Oh hey, you're right. Counting the voice actor, he was played by three different actors in the same movie

Looking at the state of him after he fell into lava in Episode III I'm gonna go ahead and say his dick was almost certainly burned off.

This is my from the hip take on the Vader dick discussion: I think he has no balls but has a mighty dick. He has the power, but lacks the will and drive needed to do anything with it and gets no enjoyment. i am sure that in a specific irony his dick is totally unmarked except for maybe a single scar. (I have scoured wookieepedia for proof, but an artist on the Clone Wars cartoon series' DA page backs me up on this.) He likely installed a prostate massager into his meditation suite. Which is symbolic of the Emperor's control over him. Luke and Leia are his symbolic balls that he needs to have the power to conquer the galaxy and bring balance to the force. Once he has his children acting as his symbolic balls, only then will balance be brought.

The twin death stars belonging to the Emperor were built at the same time and either suggest the Emperor is not swinging a full bag or that he just really likes dudes balls. But now is neither the time nor the place for such speculation. An interesting sidebar is the fleet's collection of gigantic Star Destroyers with tiny balls on their bridge. Again signifying the power but lack of conviction.

As for the rebels.... well, I don't need to state the obvious do I?

Yoda is the closest we get. He tells Luke "when gone am I, the last of the Jedi will you be." But he wasn't counting Leia, whom he definitely knew about, so he leaves open the possibility of other potential Jedi. Was Ahsoka an official Jedi or just a trainee?

Actually, one thing that always bugged me is that for all Obi-Wan and Yoda talked about how important Luke was, what did he actually do? He blew up the first Death Star, but from then on, did he do anything to help the Rebels win the war? His big climax is the showdown with Vader and the Emperor, but if he'd lost, so what? It would be personally bad, and it would mean it would be a lot longer for the Jedi to get rebuilt (then again, no Kylo Ren), but the Rebels still would blow up Death Star II and kill Sheev. That's why I liked Timothy Zahn's idea that Sheev was mentally supporting his entire fleet through the Dark Side. I know, it's a silly addition that has no backing in the movies, but at least that way it matters that Luke won. It actually is consistent, as the Empire doesn't start really losing the space battle (most notably losing the Executor) until after Sheev's death.

I don't think Ahsoka ever finished her trials to become a knight, but I might be wrong. Yoda may be referring to just those he has designated as knights, because there's also the Kanan guy in Rebels that was out there somewhere. We still don't know what happens to that guy, either.
