Yeah I think besides the voice, this (the mouth placement) threw me a bit too. But like you said, since it's a real physical person and not CGI, there's no way to accommodate a lowered mouth like that while still letting him talk. I guess they could do full head prosthetics like the ANH Duros you posted but we wouldn't get nearly as good of a mouth performance.

Honestly, I think they could have lowered his mouth without too much trouble. I did a quick and dirty test to see how it would look, and it actually does quite a bit to sell his alien-ness.

This is dope, the one we got is great but even that little touch of moving the mouth slightly has him look more accurate to his clone wars version.

as a big Olyphant head I appreciated the detail that Cobb was distracted by chekov's dumbass deputy and Bane pulled in that exact moment. Keeps Bane appropriately scary but lets people like me be like "Cobb totally could have outdrawn him though if he wasn't such a good guy concerned about his friend"

Timmy O played that scene beautifully too- he really sold the fear & tension, as the kind of guy that knows killers and knows killers who could conceivably kill him and recognizing Bane fits that. He was clearly non-plussed by the Pyke mooks, but Bane had him extremely worried.

Luke looked into Bens mind and saw that he was the kind of person to put tomato sauce on a 50 steak. The kind of animal that says Princess Bride is "kind of okay". The kind of monster that has wire hangers in their closet. Who can blame Luke for losing his marbles? We should all be applauding the fact that Luke was able to control himself in the face of such outrageous misdeeds

I mean, it makes as much sense as anything.

Ben Solo's favorite Spider-Man is Andrew Garfield. His root beer of choice is Mug. When he chooses the restaurant its always Bennigans. His favorite Weezer album is The Red Album. His favorite Adult Swim show is Family Guy. Joe Rogan is his go to podcast. He only slows down, not stop, when making a turn on a stop sign. When playing a board game, he doesn't play to win, but just to stop others from winning. And he will fart when he's on a crowded elevator.

ScreenCrush is EXTREMELY thorough. Well worth watching and he usually gets a video out same day by the evening. Love going through it and learning. Dude loves this poo poo.

He always throws in a "your mom" joke but it's random and it'll sound like a real piece of trivia before. :lol:

Yea, his Easter Egg videos are really, really good. He does speculate but the videos are really in depth and he does not assume everyone watching knows what everything is. The "This is your mom" running joke is so seamless it just fits into the flow. And yea, the speculation videos are not worth the time. At least unlike some other channels that heavily speculate, he doesn't get mad at the show for not validating the speculation. I've seen that way to many times so its nice to have someone who just lets it slide. Basically any show he does Easter Egg videos for, like if you're watching Peacemaker, those videos are really good because drat that show is full of very tiny stuff about weird old golden and silver age comics. Plus there's a dog. Also he used to work at Troma so that's pretty cool.

If you want someone who just focuses on Star Wars with much less speculation, i'd recommend Star Wars Explained for their review/easter egg videos. They're super fans of star wars BUT not afraid to straight up say it when they don't like something or something doesn't meet their expectations.

Cobb owns, and Timothy Olyphant is probably in my top five favorite actors ever. But I'm sick of Tatooine and don't ever really need to see it again unless Disney gives us his Justified In Space spinoff series

Has Walton Goggins or Ian McShane been in a Star War yet? They'd be absolutely natural fits as space gangsters or spice cartel kingpins

Artists do get in the special thanks section of credits at least. Erik Larsen in Venom 2's credits for example, and he's not a co-creator, he's the second main artist to draw Venom, added the tongue etc. I like the idea of everybody key getting some credit. I know you can't include everyone in a decades long evolving thing, but the first few people involved in an on-screen character seems reasonable.

If we do get some sort of Cobb series or extended arc of some kind I figure at least McShane would show up. They tried to work him into Justified for years but apparently could never make the schedules line up.

gently caress I want show. I don't even know what it would be about since Cobb leaving Mos Pelgo for any length of time, much less Tatooine, seems unlikely but who cares. give me Justified: Mos Pelgo even. he seems to indicate its a decent sized territory based on the scene with the Pykes and the comment for Space Dan to bring the people into town, implying there's more settlements outside of just the main drag. But we also know it wasn't on the maps from when Mando first goes there. Just have the Mos Pelgo Territory basically be Space Harlan County.

Cobb dug spice there as a kid before he went off to join the Imperial Academy as a young man, where he trained to be a dead shot. He'll kill four of you before you even clear your weapons and he'll take his chances with the other two. And you see this Imperial Crest? That's gonna make it legal.

He probably knew exactly who that gunslinger was too. Cad Bane is one of the most infamous killers/mercenaries in the galaxy. (Plus who else wears a hat like that?)

or at least he was thirty years ago.


I wonder if the unfinished Clone Wars scene where Boba Fett shoots him (and gets the iconic dent in his helmet in return) still happened (and Bane simply survived) or if it has now truly been left on the cutting room floor.

When Bane showed up in Bad Batch, he had a metal plate on his head so it probably still happened. If it gets mentioned at all, it'll probably be in an oblique way, like Boba just mentioning how hard he is to kill or something.

Bane was still alive and well enough to fight Fennec Shand come Bad Batch time frame, so he'd already been shown to survive the Clone Wars timeline.
