In most cases if you survive a first meeting with Vader as an enemy/opponant you'll be shaken up for awhile and probably thankful you survived, not thinking about tracking devices. Edit: Season 1 dvd/bluray coming out Sept 1. No new eps until soon after that? drunkill fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Jun 26, 2015 |

So while I don't play the X-Wings miniature game, Fantasy Flight Games just announced their next expansion wave for the game, this wave is mostly to do with SW: Rebels and they have added the Ghost (and Phantom), the Imperial light cruiser (and escort TIE fighters) and the Inquisitor, along with his TIE advance prototype to the game. https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2015/7/31/xwing-out-of-hiding/ https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2015/7/31/lying-in-wait/ Plus one of the art cards has a realistic looking Agent Kallus, pretty grizzly.

ijii posted:I haven't watched or read up about Rebels: Season 1. I was really disgusted for TCW for being cancelled and remade into Rebels, a Disney version of TCW with a smaller budget aimed at possibly even younger kids than on Cartoon Network. I do know that a couple key people behind TCW got moved to Rebels which gives me hope that the show can appeal to a young adult Star Wars fan. Just watch it, you won't hate it, you just might not like it as much. Speaking of S1, bluray/dvd announced, looks to have those Rebel Recon youtube videos as extras plus celebration Q&A panels, plus a season 2 preview thingy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXcRoeAfJ2A quote:Coming to Blu-ray and DVD on September 1, Star Wars Rebels: Complete Season One brings another chapter in the epic Star Wars story to your own personal Jedi Archives.

New trailer is good. I can't wait for next week but the Battlefront beta is sating my Star Wars thirst, for now. I killed Luke Skywalker by crashing a TIE Interceptor into him :3

It wasn't the strongest episode in terms of writing, but it worked well as a bit of a history lesson for the story. It was weirdly paced but I suppose being a two parter it could be fine in that context. I hope it goes into a bit more depth next week.

They are but some of the animation poses are pretty bad. That end sequence was quite wooden, Kanan with his head not quite in his hands, looked like he was thinking about another move of space-chess rather then being sad that he missed this encounter and doesn't know anything about the enemy. The show is good but they still have room for improvement as it goes on. New enemies are cool, sith recruits. Decent with the force but not great.

Kallus probably knows about the Death Star or at least some 'big secret project' because isn't Lothal being mined for the construction of it? plus used as a TIE factory for that sector which would make it important, hence the strong Imperial presence. bunnyofdoom posted:So, the Imperial frigates we see, like mini star destroyers, are they supposed to be like the Imperial Raider from FFG? I mean, wasted opportunity for both of them. I hope we see the Imperial Raider in the tv/movie formats sometime. It'd be perfect for Rebels to use as it is only a few times bigger than the Ghost.

io9 (i know, I know) had an interesting comparison:quote:A Rebel ship is sucked into a mysterious new vessel. Two heroes pose as Stormtroopers to make a daring rescue but, first, they must disengage the vessel’s defense system before a daring, blaster filled escape. Sound familiar?

Just start with rebels. It is basically a fresh slate and designed for new viewers. You won't miss much and if you do go back and watch clone wars you'll figure out the references.

That was a good and fun episode. TIE Bombers own, great to see them in the show up close. Did anyone else notice the shuttle fin slotted into the front of the Light Cruiser as it departed? Now we know what the slit in the cruiser is for. http://i.imgur.com/nagePVy.webm drunkill fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Feb 18, 2016 |

A decent episode with a bit of exposition given it was just an 'enemy mine' episode. I wonder if Kallus will look into why Geonosis is barren (because they designed the death star) down the line. After this episode I wouldn't be surprised if Kallus helps the rebellion at some point in the future if he decides to change sides, although it'd be a final stand sort of deal if anything. Those last thirty seconds had him questioning how the Empire operates I reckon, all alone, almost ignored by the admiral.

So, who is the Imperial Spy? Someone had to give the Imperials the location of where the Rebels were heading, a decision made not long before the fuel supply run. Ketsu was there and is/was a bounty hunter...

A decent Starship Troopers episode, 'The only good bug is a dead big' pity they didn't nuke the nest. Rex's Roughnecks? I noticed the facial and smaller non-looping character animations have gotten a lot better, this episode had some decent closeups of peoples faces, hopefully by season 3 they get a second set of clothes to wear sometimes. The underpants Hera wears on her head could use some variation from time to time, a clean pair. Galaga Galaxian posted:Or Non-Ghost Rebels beyond Jun Sato.

They had a premiere of the finale todaywith a press event. Apparently Filoni is convinced (headcanon or whatever you want to call it) that Rex is the old rebel commando on Endor. e: https://twitter.com/swankmotron/status/714653928038596609 https://twitter.com/swankmotron/status/714658360902225921 drunkill fucked around with this message at 08:44 on Mar 29, 2016 |

I wouldn't put it past Filoni to say all this (and please the fans who thought of this fannon at the start of the season) just to have an 'unexpected' fate for Rex this week, after we all think he's safe.

Interesting episode, although I think they had a few too many saber fighters, should have just had Maul + gang fighting inqusitors and then the vader fight at the end. The first inquisitor should have been captured using the TIE prototype and being outnumbered 2 to 1 by Kanan and Ashoka. Would have made the two bigger fights a bit more dramatic and not just another fight and it'd have given a little more time (a minute at most) to other stuff. The helicopter sabers got out of hand, being used so much. Kinda goofy and cool to see it a little bit. Also, needed more Vader respirator before he had his helmet sliced open, we needed more iconic Vader breathing before the wheezing. Pops Mgee posted:Anakin shouldn't have eyebrows. Edit: Another thing, in Rouge One, Donnie Yen will be playing a blind monk-like character, Kanan? If Donnie had a goatee he'd look similar. Big reach, but who knows. drunkill fucked around with this message at 09:00 on Mar 31, 2016 |

So, the first lines of the trailer, presumably by some Imperial person who is detaining/interviewing Jyn Erso (lead actress) sounds an awful lot like Agent Kallus... Cameo anyone? It'd be really cool if that were the case, although the voice actor for Kallus is black so it'd have to be lipsynching, or someone else impersonating, hence it being the not quite the same voice.
