Something to keep in mind with Clone Wars is that the creative team heard the complaints about the kiddy nicknames and Ashoka acting like a brat and immediately course corrected that; the problem was that they had a season and a half of episodes completely done before any of it aired, so you don't see Ashoka stop being annoying and Anakin stop calling her "Snips" until midway through season 2. And yeah, as just mentioned, the time jump and costume change happens and then the show is absolutely firing on all cylinders

Very happy with The Mandalorian trailer. The teaser and BTS they showed at Celebration looked... off, to put it politely. Very tv-ish. I don't know if it was the frames per second, or what, but it wasn't good. This however looked fantastic. Whatever that weirdness was, has been fixed in post apparently, which is a relief.

I felt the same way, I think it’s because the leaked BTS reel was full of unfinished and nearly-finished-but-not-quite VFX and some rougher editing. This new trailer looks bonkers good though, that cast is going to loving crush this.

So would it be a cop out if Obi-Wan fought Maul again in his series, ending with a semi-ambiguous "death" for Maul? That way you preserve his later re-appearance and for real death in Rebels, but you now get a live action resolution for him. Or is that getting a little bit too cute with continuity? Because ultimately I'm not sure it was ever established that they last saw each other during the Clone Wars. You could fit another meeting in there if need be. Technically you could have it so it's not even Obi-Wan who "kills" him, they could have Vader involved, whose appearance in the show might serve to also tie up some of the ANH Obi-Wan/Vader lines.

Placing bets at what episode Bill Burr dies. I've got him lasting 6 and dying in some epic moment where he gets a thermal detonator off first. Is Ming-Na the Twi'lek chick? Rocksicles fucked around with this message at 09:25 on Aug 24, 2019 |

the mandalorian looks alright, but it does the thing that every extended star wars thing has to do where it does the thing from the movies - e.g. han solo being encased in carbonite, which was implied to be an extreme and personal punishment from jabba where he used an industrial process on a human for sheer cruelty and also to display him in public, but in the mandalorian he does it to EVERY TARGET APPARENTLY

Can't happen, since Rebels!Maul is explicitly unaware of where Obi-Wan is until shortly before Rogue One/ANH and needs a vision brought on by merging holocrons to get a hint of his location, then spends a fair while combing the planet looking for him before eventually calling in Ezra to be his pointer A live-action version of the episode from Obi-Wan's perspective with Taylor Gray being a live-action Ezra would be interesting I like watching TCW in chronological order, because seeing the quality hop around is hilarious

I mean, heck, they're doing a show about the guy...it can't all be him hanging out in a hut, scaring Tuskans, and stalking young Luke.  Indeed, Obi-Wan leaving Tatooine for some important covert mission and running into Maul makes sense vis a vis Rebels because Maul's out to get the guy but really has no reason to believe Kenobi survived Order 66. But if Kenobi showed up, hosed up Maul's operation, then vanished into the dark again, that could lead to an increasingly obsessed Maul leaving the crime lord life behind in order to track Kenobi down, leading to his appearances and death in Rebels. jng2058 fucked around with this message at 19:51 on Aug 24, 2019 |

Yeah, there’s been talk that Obi-wan may not have stayed on Tatooine the whole time. Lucas himself was asked that and said it was possible. Meaning he could have ran into Maul during whatever task took him off planet.

I'm pretty sure anything you can find that states that Obi-wan never left Tattooine after Revenge of the Sith is all Legends now. There hasn't been anything post-Disney that talks about how Ben spent the years between RotS and ANH, so for all we know he booked it off Tattooine right after he handed off baby Luke, had years of hidden space adventures, and got back on world a week before Maul showed up in Rebels.

I said it in the agents of shield thread, but Ming-Na as adult live action Sabine is a dream cast. Though it depends on the time frame.

Seems like it's around the same time as Alphabet Squadron, right after Endor and Jakku, but before the New Republic really gets going. So, maybe five to ten years after Yavin on the outside, which would make Sabine somewhere from 26 to 31? Maaaaaybe, but seems a bit of a stretch, frankly. But who knows?

BB8 goes with poe to jakku at the end of resistance s1. we see the star killer base sequence and then the Colossus flies off into hyper space at the same time TLJ is occurring. the resistance at dqar is what gets destroyed in TLJ. the resistance tv characters and poes black wing squadron are not present. resistance s2 will be concurrent with and go past TLJ. guarantee at least 1 episode will have them hear the transmission from crait.

DancinBrud posted:I wonder how much of the change to Ahsoka was based on fan feedback, and how much was just her planned character arc. Probably some mix of the two, I suppose. Yeah, definitely a blend. I have no doubt Ashoka growing up over the course of the war was a planned arc, but I get the distinct impression that the Filoni and co were pitching to a younger age bracket at first, either intending for the show to grow up with the viewers or just not correctly calling who would be tuning in week to week.

Then we get the Hosian ganking which gives us exact time frame. So like not exactly the same time a TFA, but its close enough. And we don't know if they killed the Entire Resistance, though I will agree that they are nearly destroyed at the end of TLJ, the majority of their command is gone and what we can assume is the bulk of their fleet is gone too.

I could see an episode where they go to Crait, find the remains of the battle. I was thinking maybe the McGuffin for this season will be that fleet of ISDs we see. Kaz hears about a rumor of a giant cache of GCW ships and races to find the info before the FO does, and then in RotSW we have a line "a Resistance cell found the coordinates to these".

It really sounds like the galaxy was "eh, whatever, we don't want to fight again" to the FO taking over, so the Resistance was really small and underfunded. Like in the books I've read that there's literally people going "you know the Empire was pretty good. Oh yea they may have committed a little genocide, but things were pretty good and peaceful! It was the Rebels that stirred things up". We see that in Resistance with Tam only remember her grandfather having a good job in a factory.

It's seems the new canon is the New Republic was heavily disarming, remember the original Republic had to send out for an army. So with the Empire gone the Republic was returning to norm. Leia and her group were the only ones saying these FO guys aren't just taking over some small lovely outpost way far out but they are a huge organized threat gathering strength. The Resistance wasn't government supported. But had some support from within the government.

Yeah that fleet of about a dozen ships that got blown up with Hosnian Prime was literally the entire New Republic fleet. To avoid the appearance of become the Empire 2.0, the New Republic only had that token space force and instead remember systems relied on their own local forces for defense
