every single one of the pirate's lines felt like lines I've heard a thousand times before Most of the treasure puzzles, other than the first one with the ultraviolet glyphs, seemed original, at least

Why would you make pirates and not use Hondo

When was the last time we saw Hondo for that matter (I think either Rebels or The Freemaker Adventures)? In any case they should bring him back again

I was disappointed Hondo wasn’t in the Obi-Wan show because I wanted to hear him say “Kenobi!” yet again.

I bet we get a live action Hondo appearance soon, probably in Mando. I mean we got B-Katan, Cad Bane, and Ahsoka appearing in Mandalorian from the Clone Wars series - probably only a matter of time before we get more. Who knows, maybe even Maul re-appears!

I liked that episode enough, but I'm a sucker for tombs that contain things best left forgotten. Though it did also seem like a preview for Fallen Order 2.

mllaneza posted:I'm just amazed that you could do that kind of story in a Star Wars property without leaning hard into Indiana Jones territory. The music when they first entered the mountain and had to align the blocks practically screamed "Ark of the Covenant Theme" to me. Graphically, the episode was absolutely stunning, especially the final third. Story-wise, not so much. I wish something would actually move the plot along.

I can never get too mad at the show despite the wheel spinning because it's just too gorgeous to look at. Every wide shot is breathtaking.

Man, what the hell Bad Batch. That 2nd episode was almost too good. I fell asleep during this weeks and I don't think I really missed much. So loving boring.

Solaris 2.0 posted:He also shows up in the Millenium Falcon ride. That animatronic is part of the queue for that ride, and it's insanely good-looking in person. It's better than the Kylo Ren, Hux, and Finn ones on the Rise of the Resistance ride. It's kind of crazy that Hondo, of all possible characters, is the best Disney animatronic out there today.

Seems like they could have salvaged something from that ancient wreck. Got to be lots of collectors looking for Pre-High Republic tech even if it's a little beaten.

This episode was kinda cool I thought it was fun, but everyone seems to have overly high expectations due to Andor. It’s just an episodic light adventure series. Sure it has its moments of gravitas, but that isn’t going to be the norm. Is it “good”? I dunno, but it’s fun and I’m enjoying it. That’s all I ever really ask from my Star Wars.

Most of the grumbly people want Bad Batch to be about the formation of the Empire directly following Order 66, so anything that cuts away from that tends to be met with derision The Zeffo-bot was cool, but felt like it should've been in an Aphra series, given she's all about the ancient history of the galaxy

I think Bad Batch is a step below Rebels and Clone Wars (except in animation because goddamn) and that it's still trying to work out what it wants to be.

It got me that none of the team used their specific abilities in this episode. Wrecker moved a rock I guess, but everyone else was just kind of there while Phee and Omega joyfully went through deathtraps. Could have had the entire episode without them, or with just some other mooks.Jerkface posted:Aphra 100% needs her own show and she needs to betray Phee immediately This!

So my mom has been watching Andor and really enjoying it and I've been biting my tongue to not spoil anything. She just finished episode 10 and is coming into the finale.

Think I've succeeded on selling my mom on the show as well. She liked the Mandalorian ("Baby Yoda is cute!"), but tired out somewhat on the action scenes, which makes Andor seem like a much more natural fit.

My dad casually dropped that he and my mum have been watching Andor, which was nice to hear. I assume they just decided to on a whim. He liked the dog robot, and asked whether the prison set was CGI.
