Star Wars

I don't know if I forgot, but while watching the New Rockstars breakdown of the trailer, Erik Voss explained how Ahsoka got those white lightsabers. Yes, I realize she's not in the trailer, but it's relevant because she took the kyber crystals from the lightsabers of an Inquisitor and purged them of their dark side corruption. If you don't know who the Inquisitors are, go watch Rebels and play Jedi Fallen Order before you watch this show. My favorite one is in that game.

Also (this is just a funny thought), if The Book of Boba Fett was any indication, two episodes of this show will be about Boba (going back one show previous) and Obi-Wan won't hardly be seen. LOL

I keep telling Mando fans that they must watch Book of Boba Fett before season 3. I feel sorry for the people who are going to miss out on that connection, I think it's important.

Aw, so I just heard this takes place 5 years AFTER Jedi Fallen Order. So, we won't see my favorite Inquisitor (she's the last one we see). I probably only love her so much, because I think she's so hot. LOL

So, I had a thought that I think would be amazing. What if we saw Mace Windu? I believe I heard that Samuel L. Jackson would love to return. "Oh, but he died," you say? A rule of cinema I learned last year is that if you don't see a body, they're not definitely dead. However, Star Wars takes that a step further and says, "no one ever really dies." LOL Maybe Windu landed safely on a car. He was a very unique Jedi and I'd love to see him in live action again. I'd love for Star Wars to come out and show us he's not dead. There's a reason his lightsaber is purple and he studies a unique form, which I don't know of any other character that does. This form actually uses the dark side against their opponents. I think I heard most Jedi don't practice this form as it can lead one down the path of the dark side.

Let me know your thoughts! I'm always excited for a new Star Wars or Marvel Disney+ show, because they're always awesome (IMHO)!

I just read that Samuel L. Jackson's still talking about how he wants to return to Star Wars. This was days after I made that last comment. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/samuel-l-jackson-wants-to-return-to-star-wars/1100-6501603/

YES!!!!!!! I'm very satisfied with how this turned out! How about you?

I agree that it wasn't perfect, but it was really great. "Best" is a hard one. Better than Bad Batch? Yes. As for Boba and Mandalorian, it's a bit tougher to say. I really loved all three. This show has Obi-Wan, Leia, Vader, Anakin, and others, so that kind of makes it more epic.

Do you think they'll do a season two? I'm not sure. I know the main actors want to. I'm aware of things that happened with Obi-Wan while he looked over Luke from a distance in other source material (maybe not all cannon). Seeing that in live action would be really cool. ("OBI-WAAAANNNN!!!!!")

Getting more Vader would be cool, too. I'm not as aware of what he's been doing during this time, so that could be cool to see more. I don't know that I need to see them crossing paths again, though.

Looks cool. I've seen other trailers for this, I'm surprised I didn't share them.

Friendly reminder: The Book of Boba Fett premiers on Disney+ in about 2 1/2 hours (3AM EST/12AM PST 12/29/21).

(No spoilers!) If the show didn't open as it did it would have been a very strong disservice to fans. I think it's interesting how while I'm watching these Disney+ shows, they come to an unexpected end. They don't satisfy my episodic hunger for more, they give me a good chunk of a morsel, but still have me coming back for more. These Disney+ shows are among the best of 2021 and they make me look forward to what's coming up in 2022 and beyond. I'm very grateful!

There are at least a couple of elements that could be brought over from The Bad Batch and I wonder if they will be. Maybe we'll see Muchi. There's a main character who could possibly appear, but I don't know if I want to see a live-action version of her, I didn't really like her much.

This is so good! That second episode started off with a tease. I was hoping to see Muchi! I'm really glad they made this great show fleshing out the character of Boba Fett. I never cared much about him before, but now I know he's freaking awesome! This episode was a bit more cultural, which is great, because it's giving another group of people some more attention. I think this show is showing us sides of Star Wars we've never seen before and that's just great! It was also a great "space western." I love it!

I agree regarding the Tuskens! I found out about the other details you mentioned via New Rockstars and those cameos are cool. What I really liked was Black Krrsantan. He looks so angry! I want to see more of him.

Maybe even in Obi-Wan.

>Ooooh good call

Not really my idea. I had no idea who he was when he showed up, but watching New Rockstars on YouTube fills in the vast voids of my knowledge. It's awesome learning more about the characters and lore of Star Wars, especially when it comes from non-movie sources.

"Disney+ doesn't disappoint" is perhaps the best way to sum up how I feel about every episode of these shows I watch. I wasn't too into Bad Batch, but it was still good.

(Possibly mild spoilers)
My first reaction this episode was "damn." They gave us something awesome and took it away. I like seeing BK! My second thought is "don't look a gift rancor in the mouth." Something's suspicious and perhaps why an expected name wasn't dropped. Also, the "Witches of Dathomir" name drop was interesting. I'd like to see them in live-action.

There were a few significant cameos. I know Stephen Root from the movie Office Space. Danny Trejo is probably very well recognized. He's in so many movies and more! The first time I saw him was in the movie Desperado.

(No spoilers). I think we're going to get a cameo from a recent Star Wars character. You'll hear a very familiar tune at one point and then you'll hear it again at the end. I hope what I heard means what I think it does! Let me know what you think.

What was the last live-action Disney+ Star Wars show you saw? (A question that really doesn't need to be answered, because what other live-action Disney+ Star Wars shows are there? LOL).

Boba sees a big light in the night sky while the flute plays. It plays again after Fennec Shand says she knows where to find some people at the end. I'm still confused about the timeline between that show and this one. I thought I understood. It seemed easy and sequential, but I rewatched that other show and now it's more confusing. I think that confusion will get resolved next episode. I'm sure *he* is going to be there. If I was forced to bet, then I would bet on it.

I decided to rewatch the source of the tune. It was worth it.

So, I wonder how that's going to help fight a war. They need an army. Maybe there are others connected. Except, now I just thought maybe they don't need an army. Take out the top and the rest will scatter.

There's a lot to unpack from this one. There are very many Easter eggs and at least one of them has me wondering about something. I'm hoping New Rockstars on YouTube can answer my question(s). I'm not sure how the next two episodes are going to play out. I have an idea, but it's still kind of confusing.

Yeah! I really love how these Disney+ shows tie to other things (in their separate MCU/SW universes of course).

I got the answer to my Easter egg question, thanks to New Rockstars. I thought it was something else and that thought was perhaps pretty absurd.

I wonder what's going to happen next.

What's the title of this show again? "The Book of ???" I can't remember his name, haven't seen him. Maybe next time. LOL

Whoa! I was NOT expecting that cameo! You'll see what I mean closer to the end. I don't know why, but it has me really excited!

I wasn't expecting the other two cameos either. I love one of them and can't wait to see her more. As for the other one, they did a damn good job this time! I heard they hired someone who posted a YouTube video where the person fixed the issue w/ this character before. It's awesome!

LOL I tried to be vague to avoid spoilers. It's such an awesome episode! It's a must-see!

I'm hoping that cameo will make that deleted scene in Clone Wars cannon. It'll explain a certain feature on Boba's helmet. I hope you know the scene I'm referring to.

I'm not sure what's going to happen next episode, but I imagine a shoot out between a large number of Pykes and a smaller opposition.

I wonder which choice will be made. I think I can see it going both ways, but I'm still afraid of the path ahead due to the warning A.T. gave previously.

Too late, already forgot. That rancor was a bit suspicious, I thought something was going to happen there. The way this show has been going, I don't want it to end, even though Boba's been MIA. I'm probably looking forward to the other Star Wars shows even more now. I'm sure they're going to be awesome!

Yup! I think it's supposed to be The Mandalorian season 2.5. LOL

I enjoyed this show! There's a post credits scene. I have further thoughts and questions, but I'll keep it spoiler-free for now.

(Slightly vague spoilers!)
I have no complaints other than I wish CB didn't get killed, I would love to see him in live-action more. He was missing his toothpick. Otherwise, I loved it! I'm pretty much easy to please, so there isn't really anything of Star Wars I can think of that I didn't like. The major exclusion to this is the holiday special, I thought it was terrible. There are still some Star Wars things I have not seen, though.

As for the post-credits scene, I think they must have plans for CV if they made that scene. He got shot in the shoulder, so I don't even know why he needs a mod.

I'm wondering if G is going to go to the dark side. My guess is that D is going to the living waters cave to get his cult cred back.

I can't wait to see Grand Admiral Thrawn in live-action! I'm sure that's what Ahsoka is doing, looking for him and Ezra. I believe Sabine has already been cast and I'm looking forward to seeing her, too.

Yeah, good points, Jon. A Snoke backstory could be interesting, too. Star Wars is huge and there's lots of potential for more show or movie content.

Just a quick FYI, Obi-Wan's release date is May 25.

I hadn't realized there was a watch order. I watched the episodes of seasons one through six one by one, starting with episode one of season one and ending with the last episode of season six.

I'll probably wait until season seven is done, but I'll keep it in mind and come back to this post when I'm ready. Thanks!

Now that season 7 is done, I'm rewatching the series. I started out ignoring the chronological watch order, but then decided to try it out. I think this watch order is pretty good. I didn't feel like things were out of place or off when I originally watched it, but this order adds to the experience, I think. This show is good and I only recently realized they not only made this Clone Wars show, but also a movie of the same title, which is slightly confusing. Because of this, I was able to actually see how Anakin and Ahsoka met and how or why he calls her "Snips."

So, basically at the start, one thing about this chronological watch order that's cool is that there are clones in an early episode called "Rookies," but you don't actually see them train until season 3. So, if you watch that episode, before "Rookies" (a season 1 episode), then you know who's who. It's cool, I think.

Wow! I just finished my re-watch of The Clone Wars, which included the newly released season seven. I must say that viewing episodes in order of the canonical timeline is really helpful, it puts some things closer together. I sorted the webpage to just show me stuff like TV and movies, so I also watched the prequels during this re-watch. I must also say, wow (again), Star Wars is amazing! Even if you know that characters survive, since they appear in later media, it still has an affect on you. I definitely recommend this!
