How does this look SO GOOD - like, movie-level scope and quality - and Obi-Wan looked so incredibly bad? To the point where I can't believe this is even from the same company…

New reports from the Interwebs today say that not only is Anakin returning for the Ahsoka series, but Darth Vader as well, leading to speculation that there might be a flashback to the Rebels legendary scene featuring the duel between Vader, Ahsoka, and Ezra to set up the potential plot of the Ahsoka series, which also has people thinking that they might cast Freddie Prinze Jr. in a live-action cameo as Kanan Jarrus which I would fine immensely satisfying.

Also super-cool small details but I'll black them out anyway from Mando Season 3 about

New armor for Bo Katan forged from the Mythosaur and Moff Gideon gets some Mando-esque armor for himself, a black helmet that looks like what the Armorer wears.

My son has been binging through Rebels while he's recuperating from covid. We just finished up the two part Twilight of the Apprentice episode. I'd forgotten how great it was. You get the usual Rebels cast and the Inquisitors plus Ashoka, Maul, and Vader. Great thematic and musical cues.

Looks pretty dang good!

Have you watched Clone Wars or Rebels yet?

I watched the pilot for Rebels the day it came out, immediately knew it wasn't for me, and never revisited.

Then I watched the last four episodes of Clone Wars that basically made for a two-hour movie or whatever, and thought they were fine.

I'm just not a cartoon guy, and have so much other live-action stuff I need to watch.

That's cool, I dig that animation isn't for everyone, but there are some long, powerful arcs in those two shows that most adult SW fans I know think are incredible, and provide huge connective tissue to what continues to come from the mind of Favreau and Filoni in Mando, BOBF, and even the The Captain Marvel of the Star Wars Universe, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Even though Rebels has those grotesque, watermelon-thick lightsabers, it is a wholly remarkable show that includes Thrawn, everything Mandalorian, and the genesis of the Rebel Alliance, along with Ahsoka's return to action. For a SW fan, I would call it a can't miss series.

Cool stuff from the pages of new SW comics. The only bad thing about moving to a new house is I can't "happen by" the local comic book store any more while taking a walk in the evening.

From the new Obi-Wan series where Old Ben is reflecting on pivotal moments in his life.



One basically done to promote the SW Hotel, featuring Lando wearing the same GD shirt he's had for 8 decades apparently.

I hear you, and it's not that I'm not into animation. I love a lot of what Pixar puts out, and other stuff as well. I guess it's just that Pixar-type animation feels like it's on a whole other level than weekly cartoon series, which feel cheaper and more disposable to me. And this is admittedly a weird tick, but I'm also just not a huge fan of animated versions of things that were originally live action. It just adds to that cheap facsimile feeling for me.

But I totally get that there are some great, and maybe even essentially SW stories sprinkled throughout, and maybe one of these days, when I have the time, I'll go back and knock it all out.

Maybe Leia will get kidnapped and Bail Organa will have to approach Andor to rescue her.

That way we we'll have all Star Wars content from Obi Wan all the way ROTJ be about rescuing Leia in some form or fashion (OK, ESB might be stretching it but a major plot line started with Han saying "I'll get her out on the Falcon").

I don't know how you can feel that way.

Alrighty…..we started planning for Disney next year…..I've only been once and that was in 2017 so Batu didn't exist.

We want to spend 2 days at Hollywood Studios and I'm super paranoid about making sure we get multiple runs on the Falcon and also the Rise of the Resistance ride (experience? From what I've read even people who've done this don't know how to describe it).

So what's the best strategy to make sure we get reservations for those rides? And the wife and I are definitely making sabers and the boys are making droids

Not to mention Kanan Jarrus may have the best Jedi arcs in the franchise.

The Rise of the Resistance ride is the most awesome amusement park experience I have ever had. The scale of it is just mind blowing. We paid whatever it was to reserve a spot. I think it was $15 a person and totally worth it.

---

This. It's so hard to describe the ride, but it's guaranteed that you'll never experience anything like it anywhere.

---

I heard that Avatar flight of the whatever ride is incredible. Better than that one?

They're totally different and both top notch, cutting edge rides. But Rise does a lot of cool things that have never been combined in one ride. Part of the fun was just trying to keep track of it all.

I have every belief this will be great.

With every reveal, this just looks better and better. Finally, a Disney+ Star Wars series for non-tweens.
