Yes Fallen Order is definitely canon.

LATE GAME SPOILER
One of the planets you visit is heavily implied to be the future Starkiller Base.

There's no "heavily implied" any longer

It's been speculation since TFA's galaxy map came out and the planet's positions overlapped, and they've finally hammered that nail in, in the best way possible



It's about as good a reveal as the final boss

Someone's overcompensating with that ship. That weapon too, I guess. The ship stands out in that screenshot though.

The world premiere for TRoS was tonight and there’s decent quality phone pics of major plot moments floating around out there, so those of you who avoid spoilers may want to stay far far away from social media until you’re able to see the movie.

I love The Mandalorian, but drat, it really needs a plot.

I disagree.

As somebody that grew up on the nineties EU books, and as somebody that loving loved the Tales of... books, I think it's perfect in every way.

Yep. I also read a little while back that there's going to be a new clip or something related to TROS after the credits. Unsure if it's something from the actual movie, or something in The Mandalorian that ties into TROS.

Watching Clone Wars it strikes me that when I was younger with more time on my hands I would have probably been a little irritated that Ahsoka starting to use a second lightsaber was never really touched on aside from her just doing it one episode. Now that I'm happy not to stress over that sort of thing I just imagine something like:

Obi-Wan: "Ahsoka, one saber, one soul, one Force."
Ahsoka: "Nah, two hands."

There was an episode I just finished where she's chaperoning a bunch of Jedi kids who got their lightsaber crystals and I honestly kept waiting for her to go all Alien: Isolation on Hondo's crew once she was alone (so not unlike the last Mando episode) but alas.

hondo is a real weird character if you stop to think about him for longer than 5 seconds because hes introduced as a guy who will happily murder an entire village for 5 bucks but then they just rehab him as the crazy uncle kinda guy and i wonder why filoni decided to do that

They should have just put Benicio Del Toro in makeup, made him an old rear end Hondo instead of DJ in Last Jedi, and I would have loved the whole sideplot a lot more...

Mando episode is up. Part 1 of a 2-part finale. Pretty decent even though it’s mostly setup for part 2. There’s also a short Rise of Skywalker clip afterward but it doesn’t autoplay as soon as the episode ends if you’re trying to go into the movie completely blind.
