Wow. I thought Anovos got bad with excuses and blaming the factory, but they never washed their hands of it like these morons just did! So unprofessional!

With how the Thrawn character evolved after the original series from someone who wanted to restore the Empire to one who needed a strong military force to help the Chiss Ascendancy to face a larger threat (the Yu'zahn Vong in legacy the Grysk in the new canon), I think Ahsoka's line is what she thinks Thrawn is doing and we will later find out the larger story when they meet up with Ezra.

Sales must have cratered for them to backtrack so fast.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Mandalorian - Season 3 (SPOILERS possible)
« on: April 6, 2023, 01:47 PM »
I really enjoyed this episode. Lots of show-don't-tell moments.
The opening with Axe Woves and the mandalorians bringing the Mon Cal home shows how much they've fallen. They are pure mercenaries, no higher purpose. The don't care that the two are in a bit of a Romeo and Juliet type situation. They have a commission and they are going to carry it out.
Another look at the opulence of some worlds. Although it played out like a video game plot, (you want to see this person, you need to handle our problem with the droids first). I liked the Christopher Lloyd character being a separatist. He was loyal to his home world and resented a former Imperial being allowed to hang around. Going back to the video game parallel for a bit, that droid running the bar sounded like some of the droids in KOTOR II...I loved it!
I absolutely loved the interaction with Bo Katan, Din Djarin and the Axe Woves mercenary crew. How Bo Katan said that Din Djarin was more mandalorian than any of them was awesome! Bo Katan has had an arc similar to Baze Malbus. Someone who has lost their faith only to regain it. I am loving it! I kind of thought her defeating the creature that bested Din Djarin gave her the right to wield the Darksaber again, and I'm glad that they went that route. Although, now I feel she's going to die at some point in this story.
They've set a lot up this season and now we have a couple of episodes left to see some payoff. I'm enjoying the ride!

The Vintage Collection / Re: RUMOR 2024 TVC HasLab The Ghost
« on: April 2, 2023, 03:52 PM »My question is: If the HasLab is the Ghost, and the Ghost is featured on Ahsoka, why run a HasLab campaign well before Ahsoka airs?
Because Rebels is still a thing...and it showed up in Rogue One.

I'm not joking Rob, I think this was the plan from the beginning.

« on: March 31, 2023, 03:22 PM »So I guess "The Mandalorian" hasn't been Din, but rather it's been Grogu this whole time?
I've been catching a lot of crap online for floating that theory.
