jivjov posted:Eh it's not just TLJ, after he got raked over the coals for that one, he clarified that nobody knows Star Wars like Lucas and he doesn't see any of it as being as "valid" as when he was making it. He seems like a decent enough guy other than taking potshots at directors for "not doing their homework"...but he keeps. Doing. That. One. Thing. But how does he feel about the Filoni verse? Because honestly outside of that I totally agree with him.

exmarx posted:great ep, great series. were the doctor's arms a practical effect??? it looked like it. Yep! The Doctor was performed on set by three people. One was the head, under heavy prosthetics, one was the main hands and the body and the third was the second pair of hands. They used a harness system to suspend them in place, and move them as if they were one character with a singular centre of mass, then they used CGI to remove the harness and augument the eyes, etc.

Butterfly Valley posted:Vel has a distinctive face and is played by a more well known actress. Luthen's assistant has basically blended into the background in all of their scenes so coupled with her totally different look that's why I was confused. Also being drunk and high probably didn't help. I also feel like the show obscured who she was like it was a reveal. Having her arrive at the port, her face obscured, her hood up, immediately made me think Leia would be Mothma's contact and that was her. I recognised pretty quickly that it was Luthen's assistant but the show did obscure that at first.

The ginger ISB officer is a rebel plant right? He's the only one with facial hair, he spoke a lot today during the meeting about the captured pilot and he's a reasonably well known actor for a nothing role. My guess would be that the rebel pilot is also a plant, a distraction so the Imps are looking the wrong way when something big goes down.

Just being on a different floor isn't going to change the "they just moved me over from next door when I got 'released'" talk. I meant that they probably have an entite facility or two of the people who got 'released' and know there's no end in sight.

Terror Sweat posted:They actually don't, palpatine would have leaked it another way I would love to see the ISB meeting where leaking the second Death Star as a trap for the rebellion was floated as an idea. It's classic spycraft. Of course it backfired horribly but I vet everyone in the ISB upper command landed comfy jobs advising the New Republic. Dedra probably came up with the idea.

StashAugustine posted:It is really funny that the people with a legitimate desire for local independence and better government being misled by their leadership consisting entirely of evil capitalists are pretty much all cartoon villains, while the outright lunatic fascists keep getting nuanced and sympathetic takes I found it kind of silly how the Bad Batch premiere made Dooku just as bad as the Senator's he was angry with in Tales of the Jedi. They dropped a three part backstory for him and then contradicted it. Unless we are meant to assume he himself had been corrupted by power in the end, which makes sense for a Sith, but isn't very interesting.

feedmyleg posted:I would definitely say fun, but not good. It has some really fun scenes like the droid bar, but there's the shoehorning of the terrible serialized plot you mentioned, and also that the tone is all over the place and it's written in a really cartoony way. It felt more akin to the goofy droid episodes of CW to me than any other Mando episode. My main problem was I wasn't really sure what Christopher Lloyd's motives were. He said that Count Dooku was a visionary but the planet had seemingly achieved Dooku's vision of being an independent paradise? It was outside of Republic rule and flourishing?

Jerkface posted:the original plan was for 5 seasons, with each being 1 year towards rogue 1. However the undertaking was huge and it would take so long given season 1 was taking a while that luna and gilroy chopped it down to 2 seasons with season 1 being 1 full year and each 3 ep arc in season 2 being 1 year with the final arc leading directly into r1s opening andor scene I wonder if they will get Daniel Mays back.

Seeing as it's not confirmed who was responsible in the new canon it might make more narrative sense to make Deidra responsible. Would be interesting to pull those two threads together and leave CGI Tarkin out of it.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Tbf, I assumed that was all for the dead Rangers show, and what we got was the backdoor pilot showing their sets/cast/etc. Maybe. I don't think Rangers ever got far enough along to build sets, let alone rig a CGI character but I might be wrong. Wasn't there rumors that Rangers was being retooled with Olyphant as the main character? What an upgrade that would of been! Either way I assume that after the current batch of already made Disney + Star Wars is dead/severely cut back.

Should of had Barris fill this role. Reveal she's been a bounty hunter/mercenary since Order 66 and has a younger apprentice.

Marsupial Ape posted:And Daniel Logan deserves at least like a walk on roll, at this point. He's a good lookin' guy. Say he's the son of a clone or something. It should be a thing that the children of clones want to hug Boba Fett for nostalgia reasons. Honestly Daniel Logan should of been Boba Fett in the Mando verse. The ages would match up better. Save Tem for the clones and old man Rex. Also, live action Omega will probably be played by Keisha Castle-Hughes. I'd much prefer Frankie Adams, but I don't think it'll happen at this point.

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:This is a really good point. Why don't the Sith gently caress? You really would think there would be way more emphasis on bloodlines and dynasties in the evil bad guy group, but it's like only Anakin ever got laid. Rey being a Palpatine was more interesting when it implied Palpatine hosed. You only need to look at the real world to know that powerful men attract partners not matter their moral/physical reality.
