  1. Wow! That was an excitingly explosive start! I know Loki is not everyone’s fave on here, but I like the character a lot and the actor also.

    Really enjoyed the first series and got high hopes for this 2nd after a good opener. Lots of time travel stuff going on which always gets bonus points for me (the Dr Who fan in me I guess!), great cast and good to see Ke Huy Quan joining.

    Good stuff! :yes:

  2. Hmm. Once again the most interesting aspect (Baylan) is sidelined. What was his goal? 

    It was obvious Thrawn was coming back, so why not just have the SD dock with the ring thing in space. 
    Ezra could still have snuck aboard in a similar manner to get home and then we still have half an episode to do other stuff.  I guess it’s all set up for film / other series, but it’s damn annoying not to get a payoff for what Baylan was up to. Guaranteed to be recast now.

    Nice to see Dathomir, but overall - annoying resolution.

  3. Loved the film - I know if didn’t rake it in at the box office, but I was there and everyone was loving it!

    Very excited to have the cast back lending their voices for this 8 episode anime version that’s coming in November - here’s a link to a short clip:

    I like how it’s adjusted for the animation - in terms of slightly different dialogue and Michael Cera doing a more animated voice style than what he did in the film.

    Can’t wait!

  4. I don’t mind the series, but I think it’s a shame the most interesting thing about it is getting the least screen time. Baylan Skoll is a great character, performed superbly and I just want to know what his objective is. Full of mystery - really hope his final episode (unless the recast), delivers.

  5. That was a good episode! All the cast involved were on top form I thought and nice character dev throughout.

    And I am pleased we have a reason for the map (one of my early concerns), it makes sense that it was the nightsisters leaving the path back to this place.

    Really enjoyed that one - just 2 left now which is a shame! 

  6. Addicted… such a good game! Judging by the prompts about leaving certain areas, think I am probs not too far from moving to act 2. Big piece left is the goblin area to uncover, but all surrounding goals pretty much cleaned up! 
    Looks amazing, sounds amazing, great characters that you want in your party - you tend to bench some for the whole game in some RPG’s but not this one! 
    Massive replay value for sure!

    There are some things that are obviously callbacks that I know I’m missing. But I just think about those as if they are obi wan throwing out clone wars references in ANH. I don’t have to know everything. 

    I like this comment - so true, a whole back story hinted at in a very short scene. 
    Glad you are enjoying it. I do think that like in the lead up to the MCU tv shows that they could have done a little 5 min thing on Disney+ to give a little background to some characters less familiar. But hey - it is what it is! 

  8. Yes, superb stuff from Hayden. Great to see him get his acting chops into some very well written scenes. Lovely flashbacks to the Clone Wars era.

    Annoyed with myself for (as usual) missing the obvious. Sure, it would be much easier if they did a timey-wimey thing which results in Ahsoka getting on the ring ship (and hidden so it doesn’t impact what we saw in ep 4), before it left, than say, using the frickin’ space whales that are right there!!! Jeez….

  9. It’s done! Trophies look a nightmare (several play-throughs for sure), but enjoying it a lot! Looks amazing - such detail! Slow start last night while I get used to it and try it all out, but proper geeking out with it!

    Even if you had a disk youd still need to download a massive chunk of the content. It's 120GB minimum storage 

    Yeah, I’ve read a bit more online and it does seem that the game is too big for disk. 
    More I read, more I think it’s right up my street!  I’m slowly swaying towards ordering it…

    It hasnt been released on console yet, it's coming 

    It was released on PS5 yesterday, but they are only doing download only sadly. If people got the deluxe version, they could start playing from last Saturday.

  12. The only thing to make me disagree with that is that the hyper-ring-ship has gone, and there is no way I can think of to follow it. Sure she got burnt on the hand, but that was only the outer shell of the map device and that is still there, albeit in 2 pieces. So I don’t think it will be like Raiders of the Lost Ark personally.

    I think this zone will be used in a way to get her on board this ring ship. Very much like the film Tenet where what has happened, has happened, but through clever means, she could sneak on the ship somehow without interfering with what we saw. Very much in keeping with the episode of Rebels we saw previously - we never saw Ahsoka die, so nothing was changed…

    So that maybe the ending position of ep 5, but a ton of Anakin / Snips stuff to enjoy before that! Can’t wait!

    The Clone Wars did an excellent job filling in holes in the prequel story. None as big IMO as Anakin's distrust of the Jedi order. Since he wasn't born into the order he always had a hard time with buy in. The order not standing behind Ahsoka was the beginning of the end for Anakin. It gave much more reason than anything that was ever shown in AOTC and ROTS.

    Absolutely. Fantastic show and on a second viewing, the arguably slower episodes with Padme or the Droids had a lot to offer where you think our heroes have won, but it usually ends up witg Palps using gaining more power - example being gaining control of the banks.

    Be interesting what they show in this special on Friday - might be some clues as to where we are heading!

  14. That was good! Baylan is owning this show - any scene with him in takes it up a few notches - great actor and character!
    Also like Shin a lot - initial annoyance of too many force users so close to ROTJ has passed! So fickle! :lol:

    Now, the reveal at the end! So are we saying that as she was weakened by the Nightsister magic on the map, then effectively died to get to the “World between Worlds” and that place is maybe how the force ghosts visit the living? But she has a chance to come back / influence the past (her and Sabine stick together this time as Huyang warned), so that by the end of episode 5, she is alive and on board the hyperspace ring ship with Sabine?
    Seems a stretch to say she fell into a doorway like in Rebels, unless someone grabbed her again at the last minute.

    Either way, bring on Episode 5 with Anakin (wearing Vaders saber it looked like) & Ahsoka! I heard Disney are dropping something on Friday to serve as a bit of backstory to their history on The Clone Wars series which makes sense for those not familiar with it, or a little hazy.

    Loved that the inquisitor was nobody! They must have loved all the speculation!
