Well - it’s here! The first two episodes are on Disney+
Keen to hear what everyone’s thoughts are. Needless to say, there will be lots of spoilers in this discussion.
I really liked it. Felt like a solid continuation of Rebels, a bit slow at times, but overall a solid setup for what could be a very interesting and exciting series.
I feel like we should be able to guess the identity of the masked third Sith-esque villain. Don’t think it’s a fallen Ezra (too boring a plot line) but the stance and mannerisms seemed very familiar…
Also - great to see Kevin Kiner doing the music! Nice callback to some Rebels motifs here and there.
I would’ve liked to see Vanessa Marshall as Hera, I felt her voice was so uniquely matched. This Hera seems way too girly for a maternal older Hera. And where is her son?
Hoping for a Freddie Prinze Jr cameo.
Dave Filoni must be so happy to finally tell this story. Can’t wait to see what comes next!
Yea, the inquisitor is kinda sus, no? Although, I really hope that he is just some random surviving inquisitor. I didn’t find him THAT cool for him to turn out to be some character that we know about already.
Honestly, THAT is what I’m hoping for! Is Thrawn the anti-hero working to stop an impending Yuuzhan Vong invasion? Was Palpy preparing for this too by building the death stars? Aside from galactic domination, was defending from a Yuuzhan Vong invasion one of the goals of the Final Order?
