Kalshane--IIRC, Reva began to talk about the Grand Inquisitor, but
was cut off before finishing it. I think it's clear we're being set up for him to return by the end of the season. I doubt they would so clearly contradict Rebels canon, given how much they are pulling from it and TCW.
I was bothered by the tunnel thing, but it's Star Wars and tight plot-logic just isn't their thing. I'll accept the handwave on the plot so long as the characterizations work, and so far, they do for me.
This week's Obi-Wan is my favorite so far. Happy to see
him get his groove back. Young Leia
continues to impress.
OFMD is not only renewed, but they think filming could start by October! (Moving from LA to New Zealand, so maybe working out the logistics of that was part of the delay in announcing?)
I love that they're filming in NZ!
I just heard about First Kill coming soon to Netflix and it sounds like something we will want to discuss.
I just watched the trailer this morning, and that is cheesy and gay and therefore right up my alley.
OB1: Did they not bother to use
their de-aging effects on Hayden Christensen
or did they just do a terrible job? Obi-Wan looked great in that scene but
Anakin The 40 Year-Old Padawan
was not working for me.
Kalshane: My understanding is that there was none used on the performers. Your observation seems to be a fairly common one.
Also, I have not been able to watch a lot of this series because of the violence towards children, on-screen and implied; I will be very happy when someone makes a supercut of this particular scene so's I can enjoy the fight choreography without having to use the Magic Skippy Button while peering through my fingers to get to each bit.
