That was so good. Probably my favourite so far. Proper Clone Wars bounty hunter episode.

I liked how they managed to show how intimidating droids can be when they're not entirely CG - against normal humans they have a strength and weight you don't get from the animated versions.

Lots of cameos and familiar faces in there

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Shit you just binged the whole thing?!

I quite like the wait, at least you have to now with the final one!

Excellent first season, so many possibilities about where to go from here. Hopefully Filoni and Favreau already have an idea or can manage it without the Disney suits or rabid fanboys distracting them.

Nice to see
Spoiler


I think a Mandalorian walk-on cameo or voiceover/ST role is going to be the new hotness. Seeing as so many have been done already in the TV show and the big ones in the Sequel Trilogy.

Dude! That was a solid final 2 episodes. Are we still spoilering everything?


Spoiler



Jumping back into rebels now. Which, about halfway through season 2 is getting really good.


Not trying to start a debate in this thread also, but i'm enjoying Star Wars so damn much ignoring the new movies and just watching Clone Wars/Rebels/Mando and my prequel/original re watch.

You know, I had heard a little while back that Rosario Dawson was an Ahsoka fan and was lobbying to play her if she was ever in anything live action. At first I couldn't really see it but then I saw a side by side closeup of Rosario's and Ahsoka's faces and I got on board. This is excellent news! I felt very strongly that at least SOMEONE from Rebels was going to appear or be referenced in S2 of the Mandalorian. They will have to be VERY careful with applying her head pieces/montralls, etc. Ahsoka does not look much like Shaak Ti, in my opinion. The same would be true if Hera ever gets live action casting. Hera does not look like either of the Twileks that appeared in S1 of Mandalorion. Frankly, she's quite a bit prettier.


Thanks to Covid 19, we're going to need the patience of Yoda while waiting to see this. Hopefully the rumored Rebels sequel will still arrive later this year to tide us over!

That is such good news... I just hope she's got the voice as well as the looks!

As if the Mandalorian couldn't get any better... they just added my favourite SW character.

I don't know if I've ever been this existed about a casting before. Honestly, Ahsoka is my second fave Star Wars character of all time after Obi-Wan...so getting to see her in live action is going to be a treat. I DO hope we see her dual white lightsabers in action...I expect the darksaber showing up (an item she's seen more than once before) is a part of that.

So Disney+ finally arrived here today! And there's only two episodes of the Mandalorian?

First episode pretty darn cool though...

It kinda takes the piss. Wait 4 months... then they stagger the release. Probably so the free trial doesn't cover it.

That said, I liked the staggered episodes, and having to wait for each Thursday for another fix. The first two released a day apart, then the rest once a week. It gave me time to rewatch each one while I was waiting - and believe me it's worth waiting for.

I'm still glad I watched them all when it hit the US though.

So take this with a grain of salt, but some bit player on MANDO S2 let slip a nugget of casting on a livestream that he was not supposed to....

Wanna know who is going to be in S2 alongside Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka?

take a wild stab....

I mean, it makes sense and I'd have already asked for it...but man that is some EXCELLENT news.
