    There is a reason the killed Indara so quickly. everyone recognizes her and notes her as powerful in their mind right away. It's a good way of showing Maes strength. Her killing a random character wouldn't have the same effect. Jedi dying while protecting someone innocent is predictable so Mae used that against her. PLUS we will see more of her character as shown in the teasers

    So going into this my expectations were really low. But so far im digging it. I like Sol plays a good jedi master reminds me of my fave Jedi Qui Gon. Also really impressed with the actress who plays the twins. U really buy into that it's two separate characters. Also the fighting is on point that one actress or her double can really move fast

    Yeah, Carrie was in other shots in the trailer that were not in the bar so we'll see her again in flashbacks to explain what happened with the twins. Or maybe she'll even pop up in the last couple of eps like, "Surprise! Not really dead.". lol

    Personally I loved that they offed Indara so quickly, because it shows in the most brutal way that star power will not protect you as a character. I also am really enjoying that this feels like it's taking place in the Star Wars galaxy and universe without feeling like even more of the Skywalker soap opera -- I'm so ready to move on from that same repetitive story set.

    We do see in the trailer footage of Indara in flashbacks, don’t forget, what happened on Osha’s home planet is the foundation of this mystery, so they have to do flashbacks to reveal and resolve it. It’s not the last we see of Carrie Ann Moss.

    @TheMovieCouple, Wendy's shirt was appropriate. I wasn't aware of Amandla Sternberg's choice of dress at the premiere, but after watching the first two episodes it makes sense: she was repping the dark and light side of the Force, like Wendy's shirt =) It was disappointing to see Carrie-Ann Moss's character getting removed right away, but let's face it, she was the biggest name the show had. Removing her, allows others to rise. I'm happy to see Star Wars giving the lead Jedi role to an Asian actor. Aside from Jedi Master Depa Billaba and Sabine Wren we don't have many Asian Jedi or force users. This move feels a little like the recent Kung Fu Panda movie, replacing Jack Black with Awkwafina--he had his run, and now it's someone else's turn =)

    @TheVas76Ай бұрын

    I think the 4 Jedi (tried to) execute a defeated and unarmed Mae. In the opening scene, Andara says Jedi don't attack unarmed assailants. Mae says yes you do. So, the 4 Jedi maybe decide Mae is too dangerous to live. Like when Mace thought Palps was to dangerous to just imprison. Anyway, maybe the 4 Jedi do it, but cover it up so they're not kicked out of the order. They could have even started the fire themselves to make it all look like an accident. They just screw up, Mae lives, and is out for revenge.

    Judging from the scenes from the trailers and promos, it’s more complex than what we think and even the voices to Osha’s flashbacks indicate this. It seems more that Mae tried to attack the Jedi to stop what she thinks is the Jedi wanting to take Osha away. There is also something more with the mothers and possible mind control going on as there’s scenes of one of the 4 Jedi’s eyes go dark just like young Mae’s did in that dream sequence. I don’t think it’s as straightforward and as the Jedi tries to execute Mae, there’s some more trickery or misunderstanding that happened.

    Pip being a 'pocket droid' feels like a deliberate design choice to enable merch sales, a lot like Lola from Kenobi, and I'm absolutely here for it. Also, I suspect we'll see the pilot droids appear in a Disney Star Wars ride at some point. Such a clever way to represent 'autopilot'.

    I enjoy the different opinions and thoughts on it! :) I thought it was great too, breath of fresh air and what Star Wars needed. If there is not so much lore that can be f***ed up, it can be told more freely and new. I liked the Jedi order back then and how they are everywhere in the galaxy as keepers of the peace as we've been told. And I do think we might get a Yoda cameo but I really hope they don't heavily rely on old stuff, they don't always need to. I feel like Star Wars is such a vast galaxy or even universe, that there is so much space for new and exciting stories, that are not related to the Skywalker timeline. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it! Excited for the next one!

    The opening crawl mentioned this was happening about 100 years before the rise of the Empire, so we could easily get Yoda at some point. We could also get Plageus (sp), but they might want to avoid too many direct connections to the Skywalker Saga to keep this as its own thing.

    @@AndrewMcColl Yes! I do think so too. From what I’ve heard, Yoda was the grand master of the Jedi order at that time so it would make for a good wholesome cameo. I don’t think they will get too much into the Plageus thing, just because I don’t think that the writers are THAT much into the lore and it seems to want to be its own thing to a degree. :)

    Only watched the first episode so far, but I'm liking what I'm seeing. Plenty of aliens (as you would expect pre-Empire) and everything has that familiar 'grimy' feel. The only thing that's getting me down is the online 'noise'. Any time the show gets mentioned, the naysayers and performative people appear to "share their views" at length. It's getting to the point where I don't want to engage with online discussion because I know I'm going to go full Wookie in the comments and type some inappropriate things.
