I like him and his character btw, even if I don’t think he’s the greatest actor. Edited November 24, 2020 by Oregon Ducks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll gladly agree he's not the greatest actor, but he fits this roll and this show well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acgott Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 Looks like they pretty much announced the Rebels live action spinoff with Ahsoka and Thrawn. I’m sure Ezra and Sabine will join as well. In terms of the Mandalorian, no shock that Ahsoka won’t train the child. Disappointed that it looks like she is a one off. I was hoping Gideon would attack the planet there. Hopefully Bo Katan rejoins the fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Saint Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Ezra is going to train Grogu right? Also Moff Gideon and Mando duel with the dark saber and the staff is going to be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezra has struggled with the dark side already, and who knows his condition after all that time in the Unknown Region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I watched it, realized easily that a spinoff is exactly what they are angling towards, and that my roommate was overreacting. At best, Bo Katan shows up again in the fight with Gideon. Other than that, I don't expect to see any other Rebels characters. 5 hours ago, Canadian Saint said: Ezra is going to train Grogu right? I am thinking they create an entirely new character for this. Maybe someone who fled to Tython after order 66 or something. They will go their own way to give a wide berth to Ashoka/Thrawn series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem with the show is Mando needs more of a personality. He’s a little boring outside when he is being fatherly with the child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His silence in scenes speaks volumes, which is super impressive given there is no emoting to go off of. For instance, in episode one when Olyphant took off Boba's helmet and he just took a step back you could tell his expression just in the context. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pascal does a great job at displaying emotion without actually needing to show it. I loved the episode. Ahsoka's battle scenes were far better than anything we got in the new trilogy. God I wish they'd gotten Filoni and Favreau to have more of a say in those. I hate to see Ahsoka be just a one-off, but if we're getting a live-action Rebels series...that makes me giddy. It does make sense for her not to want to train Grogu though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitanSlim Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 As someone who loves Clone Wars/Rebels, this was probably my favorite episode so far. That scene with the Western Showdown/Samurai Fight taking place simultaneously is without a doubt my favorite scene of the series thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
