I'm glad FoD branched out a hair from JUST focusing on the female characters. Not that I don't think a female-character-spotlight is cool and rad...but we got a Luke and Yoda on dagobah episode and it was great

Madurai posted:Wait, when did Jango get defrocked from being Mandalorian? The Mando government (the one trying to remake Mandalore into a peaceful, pacifictic society) disowned him because he was a mercenary.

DancinBrud posted:The animation did make Luke look pretty young, and I think it tripped a lot of other people up, too. But he and Leia are just a day or two younger than Ezra! Fun fact, the model for Luke was just the season 1 model for Ezra

Wheat Loaf posted:Hahaha. Oh, dear. There won't be any Star Wars movies in a few years time. There's a bunch of movies in the pipeline; Rian Johnson's trilogy, the unspecified series from the Game of Thrones guys, etc. I doubt they're gonna dump all those into theaters in the next year given the whole "hey we're slowing down the release schedule" thing.

thrawn527 posted:Was that ever actually on TV? I thought they were just straight to DVD release movies. Yep, the first 20 micro-episodes aired as little things in between other shows, and the last 5 full length episodes had a regular time slot (well, as regular as you can be with only 5 episodes)

Ah yeah if this thread is just for canonical TV, then the microseries is out.

seeing some rumblings on twitter that Leia appears in the first episode of Resistance but conspicuously has no lines. Maybe they've completely excised that actress' performance.

It's possible they still will and just didn't get it done (or get the lines re-recorded) in time for the series premiere

Speaking of cameos; its super obvious, but the race announcer is Greg Proops! Not voicing Fode again...but still!

I'm impressed that a show aimed pretty solidly at kids is willing to mention "Death" out loud. No euphemisms like "destroy" or whatever, just "if you do this, you'll die", "this could kill you", etc.

The replies to that tweet indicate that it's a 50/50 shot. Some people have gotten full seasons of other shows at a similar discount. Someone else pointed out that the opening two parter may be its own "season" internally

Colonial Air Force posted:Oscar Isaacs is a great actor in person, but a poor voice actor. I wouldn't go all the way down to "poor", but yeah, I get the impression that he's used to emoting with his face and body more, so trying to do it all in voice was stifling him a little.

twistedmentat posted:I read that this will take place during the period of The Force Awakens so anyone who's seen the show will know what that means. About 6 months prior to TFA, yeah In one of the later episodes you get to see an under-construction Starkiller, too

The episode summary for 5 says that the First Order is coming to the refueling station, so even if a big Resistance vs First Order plot is a long time coming, they seem to be planning on keeping the First Order physically present at least

Azhais posted:It was actually after they blew up the fourth one There've only been 2 Death Stars so far. Vinylshadow posted:That'd certainly be a nice way to introduce them to people who don't play video games - because what kind of idiot puts important lore and world-building into a platform not everyone has access to or is interested in? You realize Star Wars has been a cross-media franchise for decades, right?

Wheat Loaf posted:The movies have always been most important, though. My dad finally got seeing Solo recently on dvd and he said he was enjoying it until Darth Maul showed up because it completely took him out of the movie; said he had no idea where that came from. I told him he came back in the cartoons and he said it would've been nice if that had been explained in the movie, because as far as he's concerned Darth Maul has been dead since he was chopped in half and fell down a bottomless pit in 1999. I mean...is he completely incapable of accepting the idea of stuff happening "off screen"? Even if you don't know the circumstances of Darth Maul's return...the fact that he's back can still be a cool Wow moment EDIT: Also, I'm glad he enjoyed around 90% of the movie.

Catching up on a few episodes of Resistance I missed, and I gotta say, I really love the design of all the pirates in Synara's Score. The one with the bandolier made out of old imperial rank placards is particularly great. Oh and Yeager quoting Air Force One.

IRQ posted:Is that now 3, 4 if you count Clones Wars' lost episodes or whatever, tv series in production? The only TV shows in production that we actually have confirmation of are Resistance (currently airing), Clone Wars Season 7, some manner of Cassian Andor show, and The Mandalorian. Nothing else has any manner of official confirmation. jivjov fucked around with this message at 00:02 on Feb 26, 2019 |

Random question: Does anyone have a bluray set of Clone Wars season 4 they might be willing to part with? That one in particular seems really hard to find at a reasonable price online.

Yeah, the idea of someone enamored by the idea of peace and security; who is tired of the constant back and forth wars; is a good place to explore...but having the black character say "just follow the law and you won't get hurt" in an era where black people are routinely murdered at traffic stops is just kinda tone deaf.
