so the Ahoska upcoming series/movies?

1. Star Wars Rebels needs to be in many ways a foundation on this is built on. I'll elaborate further below.

2. We need closure with Rex. Even if it is a memorial at the beginning of the series. Bonus points if they manage to have him stick around for an episode or two. All of the points if they figure out a way to stick around for the entire franchise and not be useless due to extreme age.

3. Sabine has to be the sidekick of Ahsoka even if it takes some time before she runs into them. We keep running into the star wars equivalent of peanut butter/chocolate: Mandalorians and Jedi work great together. :D

4. Thrawn might be the difficult one. In my mind, he should be the big bad that creates the Mandalorian crossover of heroes, but the way he ended (Ezra pulling him somewhere random due to space whales), makes it difficult to use them as such. However, if Asoka doesn't confront him on her own and has success, it undermines her character.

not really sure how to do this one.

5. Also not sure if there really is another good choice for a big bad. The sequel killed most interest to bring back a successor empire and the Vong being used as the crossover event might get people to grumble as much as the other times' Star Wars flopped.

6. Ezra needs to be in the series in the 2nd series/movie once they find them. I want to see how space Aladdin appears once he's an adult, a Jedi but still a street rat at heart. :D

7. open to any and all cameos and/or additions in the Rebel's crew. Zeb became one of my favorite characters just because he really is a well-meaning, but grumpy purple kitty at heart. Chomper is also a likely addition if they need a droid companion.

8. I want to see Canan and Hera's kid take the kid role and act as Asoka's padawan (or failing that Ezra's) as time progresses.

9. and I definitely want a Jedi hoedown where you have Luke, Ahsoka, Ezra, and baby Yoda in the same room arguing in that ooh so polite attitude that Jedi do. :D

Bonus points if they manage to not base it on any planets that have been done in the movies/the clone wars so far. My main exception is Genosis.

one last thing:

10. Ventriss never died in the Clone Wars or Rebels (off-screen discussions don't count, otherwise Han wouldn't have survived ROTJ), so I want her to mature to be the crazy lightsaber-wielding nightsister/mother figure that plays the Hondo role in this series.

Ideally new characters, since this is already a lot of the old cast.

I'm not disagreeing, but if they do make new characters, I want serious diversity (which was one of my biggest complaints about the sequels):

The original series had Chewbacca, r2d2 and c3p0 as main characters.

Rebels have Hera, Zeb and Chomper

Heck even Mando has some amazing alien and robot work.

Less humans and more aliens and droids.

One of the few really good lessons from the arrowsverse is shared assets.

They did the same thing with the clone wars/ rebels.

*********************

I can now do my meandering talk about Rebels that I just finished.

1. Tom Baker as a giant Force elk...sold!
2. Mal had a full story arc. Since Filoni is in charge now, I guess that's all folks.
3. Thrawn sounds like Ricardo Montalbán.
4. Mandelorians greatest enemy...other Mandeloriums. Seriously they probably would have beaten the empire to the punch if they didn't bicker like children.
5. Man they present bo katan as a big thing as opposed to an also ran in clone wars.
6. Mandolearns greatest fear, essentially a tesla coil.
7. A3's purpose is to have a more militaristic version of c-3p0. and he has a way better perception score (I was right...again).
8. really like how the b-wing is the predessessor to the death star.
9. They used Clancy Brown

We all think he's either the bad guy or the source of betrayal.

Then they use him for betrayal and it's all according to the rebel's plan.

Well played Star Wars Rebels for using our media-savvy against us.

I'm going to start watching Star Wars Droids and annoy you with horrible commentary.

*******************************

Season 1, Episode 1: "The White Witch"

Okay the theme song still kicks rear end, even if it is essentially C3p0s lament of wanting to help his friends in situations of adversity.

and yesh, I was supposed to start heckling the animation but cripes the backdrop is amazing.

C3p0 is stuck in a junkpile,

oh nose r2d2 is dead...yeah right :p

and now we find out how much George Lucas wasn't cool when Jord Dusat and Thall Joben show up. They are such an 80's cliche.

okay, very much a fan of the Fromm Tower Droid. It's about as feasible as any vehicle and I love it's mobile bomb drones.

Fromm Tower Droid
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Fromm_Tower_Droid

yay, random female potential love interest.

C-3p0 has a rock and is not afraid to use it. :p

Okay the Fromm gangsters are lame. Tiggy in particular while not on par with Jar Jar, is definitely the scrappy doo so far.
and they want to take over the gangs of course.

Woah Mama

The White Witch: What Pod Racing should have been.
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/White_Witch

Oh no they kidnapped a protagonist at the half way point in an 80's cartoon, will he ever be back. :p

and remember when Jedi were actually rare and a lightsaber cameo was the only appearance in the entire series. Pepperidge farm remembers. :p

and oh no c3p0 and female love interest have to push buttons so their buddy doesn't get smucked in the star wars equivelent of a thwomp.

and he's rescued thanks to r2d2 plucky can do attitude...never saw that coming.

I stand corrected. Belly bounce works on droids. :D

C3p0 went nyah to turn on the other droids, and it worked.

droid factory went boom.

Now tiggy is doing a kylo renn. :p

so to conclude, clueless morons discovered mob r and d location and got away.

K generally a likable episode, but that bow was seriously dumb.

I understand the meta reasons for it (merchandising and not wanting to arm children), but from a story standpoint, it made no sense.

When has the bad batch used a bow of that sort?

The reason Ezra used a sling, to begin with, is that what he had to work with before he met the crew and he was pretty good with it, plus he upgraded to a lightsaber within the season.

Same with Zeb. He gets the signature weapon because he was trained as an honor guard and for all his comic relief, he's really good with it.

but why wouldn't you give them a blaster instead of a weapon that she can barely draw?

Echo give her a blaster like the rest of them.

It was good enough for Luke to begin with, so its good enough for her.

Here's the thing after rewatching ewoks the cartoon.

The moon of Endor is a deathworld and one that puts Tatooine to shame.

You got:


The great witch Morag to put most nightsisters to shame.

Dandelion Warriors: plant dudes that spray killer thorns.

Duloks: Whom are what if Grinches were a species.

Frosch: carnivorous, reptilian creatures that look like what Paris and Janeway turned into in that one voyager episode. :p

Flying Snakes

Fungus: that is both sharp and poisonous.

Gupins: Tricksters shapeshifters that can fly when they mature.

Hanadak: Bigfoot

Humming Peeper: Alien humming birds.

Jindas: travelers

korrina: essentially hyenas that don't laugh.

Kete: alien large bees

Lantern bird:

Maramu: horned kangeroos

Mantigrues: Also known as Condor Dragons that are essentialy that.

Munyip: ewok lemeurs.

Phlogs: Giants that push trees over like grass.

Reap: Skinny spider creatures

A Rock Wizard that shows George watched the Neverending Story.

Skandits: an entire species of Sly Coopers.

Stranglethorn: killer venus fly trap like creatures

Trome: wrestling Gnomes

Tree Goats: which are goats that climb trees. :D

Wistie: essentially fey fireflies that are serious firestarters

Yuzzums which look suspiciously like those blue yakman from 60'a spiderman, who ride Steeders...er...Rakazzak beast


and the fact is:


You got at least one person who can talk to animals and is probably a force wielder (Teebo).

Ganga Sap - aka tanglewood bags

Levitation potions that were used by comic relief.

Love potions

Sleep spells in action

Soul Trees

The Tree of light

Valley of Floating Trees (screw you Avatar, Ewoks did it first)

Shadowstone/Sunstar cribbed probably from Blackstar


******************************

and that's where I'm stopping. no movies and no 2nd season because darn it that took a while.

******************************

With that being said, what you do is the following:

Queen Kneesa rules this new era with her consort Wicket.

The current shaman is Teebo and his wife Latara (who also has a few tricks) has replaced the former arch shaman Logray (who was pants wetting terrifying).

After the blowing up of the second death star, they are dealing with the after-effects. Not only the ecological damage but also the fact they learned the new skills and techniques.

Yes, I want them to Legend of Korra the heck out of the next generation. :p

C3p0 is that one guy at your game that's playing fate, earning a @#$#@ ton of fate points by making things worse before he pulls a total success out of his rear end by spending them all at the same time.
