NOTW Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 On 12/8/2020 at 11:46 AM, Alpha_TATEr said: this is my thought on it as well. not to knock the two animated series, but this material would've translated to live action and the big screen. tell me those last four episodes of clone wars wouldnt have made an awesome movie. Right. The prequel trilogy wasted time on things no one cared about for 2 and a half movies and then rushed the events of ep 3. More of the actual Clone Wars and Anakin turning to the dark side earlier would have been better earlier on, and more of hunting down the Jedi from order 66 should have been shown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though they reboot Batman every 5-10 years. And yeah we already know how the sky walker story goes. But I sometimes wish we could get a reboot on the franchise, I definitely feel like Filoni could make it a masterpiece. I mean it’s probably best to leave the originals alone, but If they redid the prequels that’d be cool. None of that matters too much though if they continue what they’re doing & keep branching off and exploring more of the SW universe as far as rebels goes, it is decent. But not that great. I got really into season 1 but have been on and off with trying finish the show since. To me it felt like The Clone Wars was like that in a way, a chance to "right the wrongs" of the prequels. It's not all great, and I didn't care to get to know stormtroopers to that degree. But seeing other planets, the Mandalorians, Ashoka was great, and some other things. They brought back Maul because they should not have killed him in ep 1. We got to see the Anakin that was much better than Hayden Christensen's. It seems like some of this extra content was trying to give fans more of what they wanted. Darth Vader's ending scene in Rogue One is the bad arse we wanted to see in Revenge of the Sith, instead we got Anakin just killing defenseless politicians and "younglings." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish he still had it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTW Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 "The Rangers of the New Republic” and "Ahsoka,” direct spin-offs of "The Mandalorian” from Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. The latter will star Rosario Dawson in the title role she originated on "The Mandalorian,” and all three shows will intersect in "a climactic story event.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/variety.com/2020/tv/news/disney-plus-star-wars-marvel-pixar-series-1234850947/amp/ • "The Acolyte,” a female-centric series, billed as a "mystery-thriller” set in the final days of the High Republic era, from Leslye Headland (“Russian Doll”).

Nice homage to one of my favorite movies(More than one really). Spoiler Bill Burr was really good and carried the theme from the Frog/Egg/Spider episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weaponx01 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Just watched. Some really, really good performances. I knew it wouldn’t move the plot much, but that next week, right? Right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Omega Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 On 9/23/2020 at 4:41 PM, opengeo said: Mandalorian drama! Pedro Pascal out as man behind the mask. Wonder how they make this work since we’ve seen him already. https://cosmicbook.news/pedro-pascal-out-mandalorian-voice-acting-only?amp After this last episode, it’s worth revisiting this crack reporting. Quote Recapping the earlier rumor that came from YouTuber Grace Randolph, it's said that Pedro Pascal wanted to be seen in the series without his helmet, which led to him clashing with The Mandalorian creators, Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. It's claimed that Pascal went to LucasFilm in an attempt to get LucasFilm to intervene on his behalf, but that didn't work out, which caused The Mandalorian creators to tell Pedro Pascal that he should "just go," from the set while filming Season 2, which Pascal did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that pretty much his shtick? I know he does stand up but never saw or heard him. If so, they did a solid job fitting it into the series and episode.
