I've never seen the clone wars show, but is the blue guy supposed to be a Lee van cleef ripoff?

Allegedly.

He is an excellent character in Clone Wars.

I still really think we're gonna get a Q'ira reveal in this….she won't have much of a scene in the season finale but it'll setup a season 2 for sure.

And as much as I dogged on this show before Mando showed up, a season two without the weird flashback structure, and even potentially without Mando, really does have a ton of potential. Now that we know Boba Fett's motivation, and the wheels are fully in motion plot-wise, they could really do some cool things here, with a more expansive cast of characters. Especially if Cad Bane is involved (and Robert Rodriguez isn't).

Lot of speculation that Cad and Fett will have a showdown of sorts as a second round from a battle they had before where it basically ended in a stale mate

Honestly I hope they save that for next season cause they can only work in so much in one episode

She'd have to be like what, 40 according to the timeline?

Knowing that Filoni is the writer and showrunner on Ahsoka, I can't wait for the scenes where Ahsoka and Luke first meet, and talk about Anakin. Maybe even Padme, too.

My most wanted conversation right now in any SW show.

same.

I just can't believe we had Mando, Grogu, R2, Asokha, Luke, and Cad Bane all in the same episode. I hope Cad Vanth is ok. I hope he gets modded ala Shand. Can't wait for the big showdown with the Pykes.

Robert Rodriguez directs episode 7……he also directed episodes 1 and 3 from this season….how do we feel about that?

I did look it up and 'ole Machete himself will appear in this episode so it's assumed we're gonna get the Rancor throwing down (hopefully)

Season 2 of "What if?" gets weird.

I'm hoping he saw the trend happening in 5 and 6 and keeps it going.

I expect it to be underwhelming, because if anything the last 2 episodes just reinforces what I was thinking after the first 3 episodes. I would love to be pleasantly surprised

He also directed the episode of mando that introduces fett, on tython, with epic fight scenes, which was universally praised on this board.

Yeah I'm sure the whole world is clamoring for a remake of On Golden Pond in the Star Wars universe. Can't wait to see some old people talk about their feelings by a lake on some cool alien world.

(Or you know we could move past the OT story lines. Can you imagine if every MCU movie/show had to have numerous references and a couple characters from the 1st Iron man? )

You mean the universe where Tony Stark's final line before his death was lifted verbatim from the first Iron Man?

Both of these things can be true

Pretty much sums up his career as a director

On a different note, there are so many ways they could go with this last episode and lots of different characters that could appear.

Imagine Spilner's face when the premiere of Ahsoka is her sitting with Luke and saying, ".. and that's the entire story? Wow that's incredible, thanks for sharing."

Does RR really deserve all of the blame for his two episodes? I thought the story sucked.

Maybe one episode will be Ahsoka providing Luke a Republic polisci lesson.

Only insofar as the directors not named Dave Filoni deserve credit for the episodes people loved. (Bryce Dallas Howard)

Personally, I've enjoyed the entire series so far, with the exception of that low speed "chase" and the look of the Mos Espa Vespas.

Had they made a competent chase scene that didn't look so slow, and made the team look not so cheesy and Power Rangers, I'd have almost no major complaints other than just a slow start.

I haven't minded the flashbacta structure too much.

Honestly, the vespa chase episode was the only one I thought was "bad." I have other complaints, mostly about Boba's apparent lack of knowledge about the crime world, but have generally enjoyed the show.

It's by no means perfect, of course.
