I hate that she buried the lightsabers. That really bothered me for some reason.

don't worry, at the end of episode XI Rey digs them up and says "It's time to get the band band together....for one last score"

i feel like with sand moving around as it does, and the fact that the lars homestead is along some sort of road that would justify that old lady just randomly wandering up at that time, that it would take like 5 minutes for those sabers to be looted

i prefer to believe Rise of Skywalker ended about a minute early, and it turns out that lady was a Space Cop working that case for 60 years. "Skywalker? Last person spotted here alive was a boy named Skywalker, fled around the time his aunt and uncle were found incinerated. Couple years before that, a Skywalker killed a bunch of sand people with a lightsaber. You know anything about that? Whats that you've got there?" Last shot is Rey getting shoved into a Tatooine cop car, cut to John Williams music

If I’m a betting man I’d go with what Mando and Boba do. Anywhere from 40-55 minutes.

Episode one is just seven minutes of Obi-Wan sweeping the sand out of his new house

Filoni’s doing a slow burn on this and I like it. No need to rush and explain every single detail about Yoda, Yaddle, and Grogu, let it happen over the course of several tv show seasons like he’s currently doing.

Lol Yaddle in Mando season 3

That’s what I figured. I just remember for the last few shows (Book of Boba Fett and Bad Batch), the length of the episodes came out the day before. I’m trying to figure out how early I need to wake up so I can watch both episodes before work :v:

One of the only good things about living in the UK is that Disney+ updates at 8am.

I have a 9am start tomorrow and I'm working from home. I'm going to watch one episode straight away and the next one on lunch or after work.

The show started in that grey area where they were still trying to honor the Expanded Universe (or at least not contradict it outright), so they probably didn't include her because she died in a young reader novel set before Episode II.

Her fate's wide open in the Disney canon though, and I actually wouldn't be surprised if she shows up in the Fallen Order sequel. The first game's grubby pilot/mechanic character mentioned hearing stories about her during his childhood, so there could be a fun Gimli/Galadriel moment if he actually gets to meet her in hiding at some point.

Ah, I wasn’t aware they killed her off in a novel. Come to think of it, wasn’t there another member of Yoda’s species who showed up in one of the comics or something?

She was off the council for whatever reason by Attack of the Clones, and none of the other former council members from Phantom Menace showed up in Clone Wars, although apparently Jocasta Nu and the turtle Jedi are supposedly council members that stepped down?

Robot Chicken is the only authority on what happened to Yarael Poof.

That was it, though it might be nice to meet a member of Yoda’s race that ISN’T Force sensitive for a change (unless they’re all just naturally gifted like how some races in the galaxy are apparently completely immune to Jedi mind tricks)

Clone Troopers in there too.

Would be pretty sweet to start at the same time of the Bad Batch and show the Separatists side of events.

Andor is apparently set five years before the Battle of Yavin (concurrent with Star Wars Rebels), so outside of flashbacks, I doubt we're getting much Separatist focus, which is a drat shame

Outside the robot armies and the dark lords the separatist society seemed pretty chill and had the right idea. And they had a UK parliament with the idiotic pantomime and everything.
