I didn't mean just for shock value...Is that what my post said?There's no reason to kill off an interesting character just for shock value.

What other purpose could it have served other than repeating the same dramatic beat of revenge of the sith?I didn't mean just for shock value...Is that what my post said?
IMO it would've improved that dramatic beat from Revenge of the Sith, that's really why I wanted to see it. In Revenge of the Sith, every Jedi we really care about survives Order 66 - the others are sort of nameless Jedi (not accounting for the fact it means more for the fans who are willing to dive into non-movie content). While it's definitely sad, there's no one who dies there who we really cared about. Apart from Ki-Adi, I don't think any of the Jedi we see even had lines across any of the prequels.What other purpose could it have served other than repeating the same dramatic beat of revenge of the sith?
I don't like watching ROTJ and hearing Yoda say "when gone I am, the last of the jedi you will be" - only to know in the back of my mind that Ashoka, a way better trained Jedi who could've helped Luke, helped the alliance etc., is out there doing...whatever she's out there doing.
Not so sure. I mean I would love it, and it would be cool, but I feel like anything we see that is concurrent with ROTS will be from Ahsoka's POV on Mandalore, leaving the battle of Coruscant to what we saw in the movie. I hope I'm wrong though.The season is going to overlap with ROTS, so I don't know why we wouldn't get the battle of Coruscant.
Very skeptical. But again, would love to see it. We know for a fact there were 3 more arcs (another 12 episodes) that were near-complete in the animatics stage, including voice work -- Crystal Crisis on Utapau and Son of Dathomir (both planned for season 6) and the Cad Bane/Boba Fett Arc (planned for season 7). I would love to see all 12 finished just like how we're getting Bad Batch and Ahsoka's walkabout this season (both of which were in the same near-finished animatics stage). I just kind of doubt they'll do it after they do Siege of Mandalore. But we'll see.Oh yea, I forgot it was planned as 8 seasons. Well we know Filoni stays in contact with Lucas, so I'm sure if there was anythjng he felt unsure of he would ask the man.
And as to more arcs, Disney can still get away with calling this the Final Season, and just create Specials to finish certain stories. A new Clone Wars arc every few years would be great.
I don't think it's going to happen, but ironically ROTS is already kinda structured like ~20 minute Clone Wars episodes: Battle of Coruscant, Obi-Wan on Utapau, Palpatine unveils himself and activates Order 66, Anakin vs Obi-Wan/Yoda vs Palpatine. It really could be done as a 4 ep arc on its own.Kinda hoping for the same thing.
Just remake ROTS into season 8 and the prequels will have fully been redeemed.
That's not really a good enough explanation for me (not YOUR explanation, just that one in terms of how they've explained it).Ahsoka isn't a Jedi though, and she's in the Unknown Regions during the OT. It isn't that big of a retcon.

As a sidebar to the other conversation in this thread: Fuck, I've always thought having them just straight up animate ROTS and have the characters be more like their TCW counterparts would be SUPER dope.
TRUE.I'm not really interested in this, but I would
love if they used the deleted scenes from RotS, such as Padme essentially starting the Rebellion, and animated those.
We see Anakin talking to hologram pregnant Padme in Mustafar clothes, so it definitely won't be just Ahsoka's perspective.Not so sure.

It's what I've been doing - it's so good to get back to this show.This is the perfect time for me to actually go through and use one of the watch guides to catch up.
TRUE.
Also I'd kind of love to see Anakin going through the Jedi temple and slaying some Jedi masters as a display of his power, but is that weird to admit?
Yeah. For all the talk about how he's the most powerful Jedi, chosen one, etc. - they never really display that in the movies.
I don't put a lot of stock in fan campaigns. Yes fans showed that there was still demand for Clone Wars, but Netflix viewing numbers and merchandise sales probably had more to do with it than any sort of campaign. Either way, I think Filoni will just move on to the new post-Rebels Ahsoka show after this. Maybe if we're extremely lucky we'll get the full animatics of the two unreleased arcs (like we already got Crystal Crisis) at some future con. I dunno about anything else.Yea it's clear Filoni feels like it's done, but we all felt like it was over after Season 6 was released. Fan campaigns proved there was still interest. If the fans still want more, start a new campaign.
Perhaps, I guess we'll see. I just expect whatever duplication of ROTS to exist here to be pretty minimal.We see Anakin talking to hologram pregnant Padme in Mustafar clothes, so it definitely won't be just Ahsoka's perspective.
It's clear they planned for more movies around and after Solo, but that plan is scrapped now. Maybe a Disney+ series down the line.So when are we going to get the darth maul show or animated show? Like we saw him in Solo and I wanna know how that happens!
Not really. We know they all live past this, but we don't know how. We don't know the circumstances. The story of what exactly happened is still compelling.It's kind of annoying we already know what happens to Rex, Ahsoka, and Maul.
The adventures of Q'ira and Darth Maul is pretty much my most wanted Star Wars property at this point.So when are we going to get the darth maul show or animated show? Like we saw him in Solo and I wanna know how that happens!
March. If the first arc is about the bad batch.The only SW content I'm willing to crave these days!
I get to see my girl, Ahoska, next month!!!
Will probably show in some of Star wars side stories they announced for Disney plus since that's where the side the that sort of stuff would go after Solo bombed.So when are we going to get the darth maul show or animated show? Like we saw him in Solo and I wanna know how that happens!
4 episodes per day is like a movie per day. Totally doable, especially if you watch more on the weekends so you can watch less during the week. 🙂My wife asked me last night how many episodes we'd have to watch a day to re-watch everything before the new episodes start dropping, and I told her too many haha. But we may re-watch on of the "essential guides" in order to make it more manageable.
Seriously. It also had that great Anakin/Obi-Wan conversation about Ahsoka.shame they also won't finish the Utapau episodes as well. gunslinger Anakin was fun
Yeah that conversation alone is the reason why I'm so hyped about the Kenobi show. The dude had so much faith in Anakin even when the writing was on the wall. It will be interesting to see how he copes with the fact that Anakin became a "disappointment".Seriously. It also had that great Anakin/Obi-Wan conversation about Ahsoka.
Oh, it's definitely going to happen in this season. They just don't want to spoil it. The plan has always been to show Order 66 from Ahsoka's view before the end of this.It looks awesome! I won't lie, I was hoping the trailer would end with "Execute Order 66" but I guess they still don't want to overlap with EP3 which is fine.
That sounds so sweetOh, it's definitely going to happen in this season. They just don't want to spoil it. The plan has always been to show Order 66 from Ahsoka's view before the end of this.
