Star Wars discussion (SPOILERS INCLUDED)

It's called 'foe', and so far it seems to be working for me as advertised.

I guess that when your argument is groundless, you wouldn't want to see people pointing out the holes.

Why don’t we just be democratic about it and have a vote?

When does mine have to be postmarked by? Can I vote for myself and all my dead relatives?

Postby **nocera** » Mon Nov 30, 2020 4:46 pm

No but when you lose you can refuse to accept the results.

So my question would be how would Elsbeth know where thrawn is if he hadn't already come back. Last we knew he and Ezra were with the space whales, Elsbeth wouldn't know where that was, right?

Got caught up on Mando last night.

I got serious Kill Bill vibes from the showdown with

Any thoughts to this? Wife said I'm thinking way too much about Mando, so here I am asking again, haha

I mean, saying a thing is referencing Kill Bill is sort of by default referencing Kurosawa. His work has resonated throughout the Star Wars universe for the entirety of the IP's existence. And I think that's great. Before going down that rabbit hole, you'd never expect a closeup of someone's feet shifting in the dirt to carry emotional weight.

Also, here's a fun clip of Lauren Mary Kim - the stuntwoman who mo-capped Ahsoka for the Tano-Maul fight in the last season of Clone Wars fight - talking about the thing in a bit more detail.

Correct. I spoke badly.

There was one video - of the 100 or so I've watched lol - that supposed it's possible that final scene of Rebels is actually post-Mandalorian. But that doesn't really ring true to me. It really disconnects the storytelling of Rebels imo. Plus, I don't know when development work on Mando started, but I think Rebels would've been wrapped up before they got that deep into plotting the full arc of Mando. Could be wrong, of course. I just don't really buy that theory.

I tend to agree with you, though.

Like 2 seconds after the "previously, on The Mandalorian" recap, when the alarm gong thing started, I was like "I'll take all of the Kurosawa, please".

The lady who played Elsbeth is a famous stunt lady herself.

We're in a universe with lightsabers, spaceships, droids, etc, but we still bang a freaking gong when we see somebody on the horizon.

See that's always been my favorite part of Star Wars and why it's better than Star Trek

Filoni being involved in both projects and him leaving it open as a possibility in that interview I posted, definitely makes me believe it is possible. Ahsoka looks older in Rebels than she did in the last episode too. Perhaps it took her some time to find Ezra, before going to Sabine.

Random pedantic Star Wars peeve: A sabre(er), by definition, is a sword with a curved blade. Lightsabers have straight blades. They are all misnamed.

Well the dude who created all this calls them laser swords.

It may please you to learn that in the German dubbed version a light sabre(er) is called Lichtschwert (lightsword) instead of Lichtsäbel (lightsabre(er)). Although sometimes it is called Laserschwert (lasersword) for some reason.
