(I hate that I'm even arguing about this/defending myself on the internet, over something so meaningless and stupid.)

Just goes to show there are other fellow immensely clever geniuses out there.

That said, how would I have even seen/searched for those tweets beforehand, from some random people I don't follow? Not to mention, I always go out of my way to credit sources, post links, say I heard [whatever] on Twitter, etc. So why would I suddenly want credit for some random throw-away term on a message board about a Star Wars show? If I cribbed it from someone, I would have said as much.

Also, for the record, you post stuff all the time from Reddit, be it memes and sometimes copied and pasted text, without saying where it came from, or even implying you got it from somewhere else, as if you don't mind people thinking any of it's yours. So, you know, you're one to talk.
This fight is already shaping up to be worse than Boba and Fennec vs. the Parkour Pals in Episode 1

Exactly my thought.

Has nobody used the name Black Krrsantan in this thread? Because that's who the BMF Wookie is.

Also for those who asked, Aphra rules and will definitely show up on D+ sometime. An Aphra series would be great fun. I'd have to double check the timeline but she could show up in a Solo or Landon series, depending on when they set it.

This series is informed a TON by the comics. Krrsantan is a staple there. Even little details like the black melons originate there.

Also, no love for Camie and Fixer and Tosche Station?

I just came back to own that. I didn't read back far enough, getting lost in the fight about whatever the hell that was.

I had no idea who they were until I was reading about the episode on Wookieepedia. That's pretty awesome.

I love when they tie stuff back to the original designs. Very, very cool.

My biggest disappointment this week is that I realized 22 years after I moved out of Moore Hall and Bonfire how much of a missed opportunity it was to not nickname some big, hairy guy Wookie. Of all the dumb/genius/nonsensical nicknames my friends and acquaintances had, that would have been one of the best.

Love this guys take on these. Some of these have been discussed but like always there's a few things he points out that are really awesome….biggest one I remember was more of the backstory on that big wookie and little hints they threw in to his costume.

Turns out the TR warrior that trains Fett is the gorgeous Joanna Bennett :

I had guessed it was a female character. Which I guess is still ambiguous in the show, but I bet that's where we're headed.

Between Erik Voss and the Ringerverse (Van Lathan, Charles, Mallory Rubin) I get so much more enjoyment out of these shows

Question is, which character from the sequels will be revealed to be their kid?

My money's on Captain Phasma.

Folks have mentioned how much this feels like a western (bar fight, stealing swoop bikes, train heist, etc.), but I also get strong Lawrence of Arabia vibes as well. The sand people are basically space bedouins, and the desert landscapes, the tribalness of the sand people, the dancing in the robes, receiving a ceremonial weapon, and, yes, the attack on a train are very reminiscent of that movie.

Feels like a real Lawrence / western mashup in many ways.
Thanks and gig'em

Yea I saw this on IG and this series is definitely more Lawrence of Arabia than I realized.

Random question I'm sure a SW nerd here will know:

What exactly are the Sandpeople supposed to be underneath their tribal garb? Human, alien, etc.

Alien, but I don't think it's ever been officially revealed

That depends.

Are we limited to talking only in hand gestures?

If you actually learn Tusken, I'm sure at a certain point it'll sound more like an real language and less like a walrus choking.

Also, I'll teach her to speak Americano

Is there a translation guide anywhere in the Star Wars universe?
