    For someone who holds such evil beliefs, and doesn't mind sharing videos about it, he sure is a sensitive little fella.

    Finally finished watching this last night.

    Good, not great. Very enjoyable to watch, but I think SW without a John Williams score is missing something.

    It is amazing that there's a live-action SW teevee/streaming series at all, which is pretty cool.

    Yeah, imagine if someone in 1978 told you about all the Star Wars and Star Trek content that you'd have available to you any time you wanted it in the 21st Century. It'd blow your mind.

    This is my very favorite TV show currently. I watch it when I spinbike. each episode is good for one good session on the bike, and Ive watched the series several times while on lockdown. Never repetitive.

    Hmm...
    Boba-Fett survived.
    Palpatine survived.
    Leia has/had Jedi powers and a lightsaber.
    Holocrons are canon.

    I'm just saying...Dark Empire "A Star Wars Story", movie?
    Eh? Eh?

    Maybe a scene with Boba Fett in carbonite that double’s as Lando’s desk?

    Which fits in with it being a flashback scene or another clone who has decided to adopt the mantle of Boba Fett. Given that Disney falsely listed on IMDb that Ford would be in the second prequel movie to hide the fact that he dies in the first one and the numerous other times the Star Wars folks have deliberately thrown curveballs as to who or what is going to be in a particular thing, I would only trust the mention that Temuera is going to be in the next season. The rest? Who knows? Heck, now that I think about it, he could also just be an old hologram recording that someone finds.

    with Ashoka and then Dark Saber next season, I'm pretty sure the search for Ezra featuring Sabine spinoff is gonna give us some Thrawn.

    wasn't that the speculation after the Tatooine episode, "the gunslinger"? that it was Fett in the end scene?

    Dunno. Haven't watched the series. But it wouldn't be the first time a series has pulled a mind-fuck by making you think that someone appearing in the show is playing a specific character only to do a reveal that makes you realize they were someone entirely different.

    My theory?
    It'll really, really, be him.
    But he won't be the badass everyone wants him to be.
    It'll turn out the Sarlacc fucked him all up, and he has to pass the torch to Mando.

    Not buying it - Rex might've made it to Endor (according to Rebels) but the accelerated aging would get him by this point. Asohka herself will be 45...

    And I can't see Rex adopting Mando culture, and certainly not taking up the name of a bounty hunter who hardly embodied it (in the films, anyway).

    While Rex would only be 41...
    yeah, not much chance that they could fit him in without bending their own rules badly.

    Boba's supposed to play an even bigger role in season 3.
    So, guess they aren't gonna kill him like Han, Luke, & Leia.
    I was so sure Mando was gonna be his Rey.

    I've never read the comic, but I've seen Mr. Sunday Movies (I know, bad Federal Farmer for bringing up a Youtuber) talk about that one and I thought it was pretty funny. I've waited a long time to find an excuse to bring it up.

    No link currently but I hear Timothy Olyphant (Deadwood, Justified) has joined the cast.
