Tony Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I’m making this somewhat political so I apologize but I just can’t stand this argument I’m seeing by one side of “Why does Disney get to be the moral arbiter or what is right and what is wrong?” Because they write the checks and she takes their money. You represent the company and they have every right to say “We don’t agree with these views and have decided to part ways in our relationship.” It just bothers me to no end this idea of having zero consequences for our actions. It’s fantasy land to believe otherwise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The whole idea behind "cancel culture" is dumb.

Expand Reveal hidden contents I have to say, it’s 2022 and you have what looks like a 30 year old Mark Hamill running around as Luke Skywalker.

And as Kyle mentioned, the 2nd most interesting thing in this episode was: Reveal hidden contents Cobb and Cad ...which are more in the Mando universe than Boba. I guess we should just be happy they've nailed the Mando character, which has been great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 On one hand, the last two episodes have been some of the best Star Wars I've ever seen. Reveal hidden contents GROGU TRAINING. CAD BANE. AHOSKA AND LUKE TALKING ABOUT ANAKIN. COBB VANTH BEING COOL. BLINGED OUT JAWA CRAWLER. EVERYTHING MANDO. On the other hand... Reveal hidden contents Put Boba in his fucking show. God damn. Also, while the Luke Fake is better, I hope if they keep using him, they'll just cast someone (Sebastian Stan being the fan cast). It's working right now, but if he has to heavily emote in the future I'm worried. Important backstory for the high noon shootout Reveal hidden contents This was deleted from Clone Wars, but Cad Bane had a metal plate in his skull in Bad Batch, indicating this could possibly be canon. This show needed an extra episode with where it's going due to the detours from the past two weeks, unless next week is two hours of non-stop action.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Did anyone else in this thread watch Justified? Because I think they are intentionally making Cobb Vanth an exact copy of Raylan Givens. Literally down to the dialogue and speech. I swear I can even think of a scene where Raylan tells someone to "think it through" while in a similar high stakes situation. I feel like that Leo DiCaprio meme of him pointing at the TV every time I see Cobb Vanth in a scene as I scream to my wife, "That's Raylan! He's playing the same dude! I love this!" ?

Kyyle23 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 It wasn't the best episode but there was some fun shit that happened. Reveal hidden contents the rancor rampaging across the city and fucking up the machines of destruction was straight out of every 80s kid imagination. I don't think Cobb is dead. If that's the end of Cad Bane, well that fucking sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
