The Choc Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Oh that was the same lady? I really didn't know. I guess Ill mostly withdraw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathras Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Her fighting Ahsoka and loosing didn't really add much to the story, so you are mostly correct on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Baylan and Shin are two of the more interesting characters added to SW since Mando. I was really interested in getting more about them and NOPE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathras Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Agreed. I mean it is possible that if this series got picked up for season 2, I think the plan was for them to return, but with Ray Stevenson passed away, we probably won't get more about him. I don't think they will recast, but will just kill him off screen. Now we may get more Shin backstory, if there is a season 2, or on some other show/movie. At least I hope so. Also, how weird is it that Hayden Christiansen is now about the same age as when Vader died in ROTJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerina Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Meh, her part in the scheme was over. Thrawn obviously considers people disposable as soon as they've served their purpose. She served her purpose - basically as just an intergalactic receiver. Baylan's obviously being reserved for the next series and/or movie that I haven't confirmed is on the horizon. His story is going to be bigger as he looks for the World Between Worlds or whatever the blinky light was indicating. I hope they recast. They should also think about recasting Luke and Leia (possibly Han again) as well, but the fanbros might explode. Also, I wonder if Anakin's force ghost is spending this much time with Luke/Leia or if he's only haunting Ahsoka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathras Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 You know, with the deep fake stuff, they could get look-alike actors and touch them up with CGI. It would have to be easer than a full on deep fake like they did in Mando. I remember some people wanting Sebastian Stan to play Luke. He's be about the right age to do it now. Anthony Ingruber should have been Han in Solo. Billie Lourd would make a good Leia. As for Anakin, I would think Luke communes with his spirit. I doubt Leia would want to, though.

If they had Billie play Leia and they gave her the sidebuns, I'd keep thinking of her as Chanel #3 from Scream Queens LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As weird as Ewan McGregor almost being the exact age Alec Guinness would've been had the Obi Wan series been filmed 10 years before ANH (since the series takes place 10 years before ANH).

Well do some light CGI touching up, and she could sell Leia. She is practically a dead ringer for Carrie Fisher as it is, with the right make up and hairdo. She did play Leia in a scene for TROS.

Lord Darth Hunter Posted November 21 Share Posted November 21 Filoni has been promoted to Chief Creative Officer of Lucasfilm. I guess this now makes him the Triple H of Lucasfilm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted November 21 Share Posted November 21 It's funny-- a few years ago everyone was saying Filoni should run creative and let Kennedy stick to what she knows- running production. Now that it has finally happen, I'm very MEH about it. Turns out Filoni in live action ends up leaving me feeling like EU fan films are now canon.

I was one of those who thought that too, and so far, I am not that impressed with Filoni Live action, aside from Mando seasons 1&2. I mean I don't hate what Filoni has done, but I also feel like it could be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Choc Posted November 21 Share Posted November 21 I hate this news. Out of the different sort of ways you can group Star Wars together the Mandoverse is by far my least favorite. Its just so blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Darth Hunter Posted Wednesday at 06:10 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:10 PM For me it’s more like too little too late. The franchise has suffered tremendously from not having one clear vision to follow, especially the ST. Had someone like Filoni been in this spot from the start, maybe it would’ve benefited having someone creating the path for everyone else as opposed to everyone just write what you want and we’ll make it fit somehow. Or worse, if we don’t like what you’re creating we’ll fire you midway through the production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted Wednesday at 09:36 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:36 PM Really HATED the toxic bro side of Star Wars fandom that instantly called for Kennedy's head and never stopped. It's the same ones complaint about how she "forced" female leads and woks and all that other crap. That said... To have had to fire and replace this many directors, to reshoot more than half of multiple features, to announce shows and not put them into production for years, to prioritize things like BOBF instead of giving more money to Obi-Wan... all of these things fall on her.
