As someone who never bothered with the other Star Wars animated series will this be accessible for me? Or is it more of a sequel to those?

Weird that the mod scene showed the guy putting metal pipes into Fennec's body but didn't show him ripping out all the intestines first.

Hazo posted:She apparently spends 100% of her free time kneeling on the precipice of space and holding her forging tools across her chest for some reason, so maybe she's constantly waiting for some troops to try sneaking up on her again because it was so much goddamn fun for her. It must get pretty drat boring just the two of them.

feedmyleg posted:Can't wait to see Boba riding the rancor in the big finale, a thing he learned how to do off-screen while we were watching other stuff. What are the odds that the rancor doesn't show up or get mentioned in the finale. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if Boba didn't show up at this point.

Luke was absolutely right to do what he did. It'd take a real psychopath (or some sort of weirdo warrior cultist with no attachments or feelings) to know that your friends are in mortal danger and do nothing. "Actually he would've been better off doing nothing at all " doesn't change that.

I don't know who Amy Sedaris is but judging her solely on this and Mando she's just the worst.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Twitter is so mad about this one dude’s little spin and it isn’t even among the top 50 issues this loving show had. Seriously, characters do dumb little moves like that all the time. What offends me more is that the mods (the premier rebel biker gang in Mos Espa) are so clean, polite and posh. They're clearly in Tatooine on a gap year funded by mummy and daddy.

Cheesus posted:This gave Grogu agency of his own. Up until then, it was not his choice to be "returned" to the Jedi. Luke powerfully gave him that opportunity to decide on his own. I'm half expecting Luke to turn up in S3 and say 'that was a test and you passed by choosing to help your friend, just like I did all those years ago (because you totally knew Mando was in danger, right)?'. That or they'll try to find someone to continue teaching him the force without imposing the whole weird cult thing on him. Oh hey maybe that BD unit Mando met on Tatooine knows someone?

Isometric Bacon posted:It got so bad I remember the phrase 'Star Wars Fatigue' being a pretty regular occurrence. Given that the MCU managed to put out four films and five seasons of TV this year it must have really taken Disney aback when they couldn't get away with stepping up the Star Wars movie output. I think one live action show and one animated show per year, with movies every three or so years would probably strike a decent balance as long as they have a good re-think of the creative direction of the films.

feedmyleg posted:It also bears noting that the MCU is constantly moving the universe forward. It makes things feel new and exciting and leaves people itching to find out what happens next. Star Wars does not currently have this advantage. I really wish Star Wars would stop dwelling on the past and re-telling the same events from different perspectives and just move forward. It's doomed to have endless content churned out until the end of time, so that content may as well progress the overarching story. The one exception I'll allow is Old Republic poo poo. Either bring the KO/TOR games into canon or adapt them Disney.

Rey would've been a loving great character if RoS didn't happen and her teaming up with Kylo wasn't a fakeout.

I know it's not canon anymore but I just can't get over the fact that even going back millennia, most of society is identical to modern day 'Wars. You still have the Jedi controlled Republic and the Sith controlled Empire. There's still a master and an apprentice. The Jedi are making the same mistakes. The droids are basically the same. The Hutts have a crime empire. Tatooine has the exact same issues with poverty, slavery and sand people. It's bonkers.

Karloff posted:Boba Fett wasn't a very good show. It's very easy to think how they could have structured it better to be more dramatically satisfying while accomplishing all the same things in the the terms of where they wanted characters placed etc. I didn't mind the Mods because it amused me that they looked like they stepped straight out of Camden Market, at least before it got lovely and they built a bunch of flats at the lock. Now I'm imagining them all working at Cyberdog in Camden (while living with their parents in Chelsea of course). Pic for reference:

I'm struggling to remember the last film score (not just Star Wars) that actually had that John Williams magic. Probably Revenge of the Sith? Nothing he's done since then has hit the same way.

feedmyleg posted:This insult to Across the Stars will not stand Totally. It's a shame it wasn't written for a less gross love story. Battle of the Heroes slaps so hard for me. It sells the Mustafar fight as an exciting, climactic battle all on its own. It edges Fates for me.

Dave Syndrome posted:Rey's theme is quite lovely, but off my head I can't remember any other themes from the sequel trilogy. Very curious to see how the Obi theme will come out. Yeah Rey's theme's nice. I suppose I associate good John Williams themes with sweeping scores that dominate a scene - whereas Rey's theme adds some nice background texture.

My favourite storm trooper chumping is Jedi Fallen Order. By hammering the block button when they're firing at you, you one shot most of them without even looking in their direction. Casually mow the fuckers down, then get killed by a spider.

feedmyleg posted:I am going to get really annoyed when he inevitably says "Hello there" in the series. I'm near the end of season 3 of Clone Wars and someone says 'I have a bad feeling about this' in about 70% of episodes. There's going to be constant 'hello there's. Definitely a few 'certain point of views' for good measure too.

He'll turn up as a force ghost. Turns out Vader died shortly after his horrific burns and they replaced him with Rex.

Ballz posted:Did JEJ die or something? Why not just have him voice Vader like he always has. He’s not going to sound “old” like Hamill does because his voice will already be filtered. Tbf the dude is 91 and might be reaching the point where he doesn't want to strain his voice every time Disney calls. And Hamill doesn't even sound that old except when he's doing his Joker/weird UK accent voice.

Butterfly Valley posted:It's kinda funny that now we have the implication that Obi Wan spent the best part of 20 years living on Tatooine with gently caress all to do yet couldn't ingratiate themselves with the Tusken Raiders such that they were still a direct threat to him and his charge, yet two bounty hunters in much less time managed to learn how to communicate, empathise and eventually ingratiate themselves I feel like it wouldn't even occur to Obi Wan to build relationships with what he sees as a savage race.
