P.S
We know episode 3 of Kenobi is out... We got confused as to which day they were dropping... We know bad look. But come back for our breakdown of episodes 3 and 4 of Kenobi if you like this one!
Hey what's up everybody and welcome back to another episode of the Dorkside nexus. As usual, my name is Cory.
Tanner:My name is Tanner,
Brooksie:and my name is Brooksie.
Corey:And we've got a bit of a different format for you this week but schedule is really busy because of the holiday we we couldn't get together but we're still together in spirit because we want to talk about all of the amazing stuff that has come out of both Star Wars Celebration, and the new Disney Plus series, which blew my frickin mind. I can't wait to talk to you guys about it. Obi Wan Kenobi pulled him Obi
Tanner:Wan Kenobi.
Unknown:Why are they excited about it?
Tanner:Okay, dude, I
Corey:still, I had it I enjoyed the heck out of it overall. What would you guys say? Was your was the vibe on? On the Kenobi show? Did you like it? Did you dislike it?
Tanner:I'll let Brooksie go first. Okay.
Brooksie:I definitely liked it. Every aspect of the entirety of the show shows a lot of Kenobi trying to fit into more of the mundane world like the average galactic citizen. And in the meantime, having a low profile enough to not interact with a when and baru Lars, but still trying to have a presence in Luke's life hence why he wanted he got the toy from the Jawa to give to Luke in secret. Unfortunately, though, Oh, and did find out about it and said, No, you're you need to stay away from us. In which Kenobi just responded with the fact that he needs to be trained. And then oh, and drop the whole bombshell of oh, just like his father and of course Oh, when can deal out burns, but he can't really receive them. So.
Tanner:Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Corey:You know, he imbrue they were they were always a hot cup.
Tanner:A, she was you?
Corey:Know, I totally agree. I it was interesting seeing a character that that we've come to know, like a character like Obi Wan Kenobi that, you know, he's one of the oldest characters in the saga. Be us personally, we're all huge prequel fans. So seeing you and McGregor bag, in and of itself is enough of a reward. But then seeing this new take on the character of where he's really unsure. He doesn't know what he's doing right now. And it's strange, because there's still hints of the character that we love, and that we've known this whole time. But he's, it's still so different and it's untouched territory. Really enjoy? Absolutely,
Tanner:absolutely. I mean, they're this. I'm gonna bring it back to last Jedi for a second. This is the route I want to say this. This depressed Obi Wan Kenobi is so much more believable than a depressed Luke Skywalker just gonna come out and say it because we saw what he went through. We haven't seen that yet with Luke. And that was the biggest fault of that trilogy.
Corey:I can agree with that is I mean the prequels setup the entire tragedy that happens so well, that this guy is very believable to where he's at right now. We see him like Brooksie said that just the mundanity of you know he's chopping up meat for what was that? What was that thing? Was that some kind of like fish or some flying creature that just crashed landed
Brooksie:the Yeah, it almost reminded me up because I've been rewatching Clone Wars through the entirety of the through its entirety. Again, it almost reminds me of the nebula type Mantis species that's in season one. When Plo Koon and Anakin are going to attack the malevolence it almost seems like one of those had landed on debt to Queen and it just seems like some type of space breathing like fish type. I don't really know. Like specifically what it is, but it just looks like like, like a relative of that
Tanner:looks like a hurdle. Like if that's what you think you're gonna get a second. Yeah, it's another type of hurdle.
Corey:Remember like a baby that jumps somewhere by accident? Like oh shoot from place. A beached space whale. What a concept on tattoo and instead of instead of pushing it back into space, they're just like no this is going to feed the people of tattooing for a couple of weeks. I like Obi Wan slicing off just just enough for him and his little, his little EOP That was cute. Yeah, seeing the same little creatures from episode one.
Brooksie:I also liked him. Yeah, his DOP. I also liked the fact that in the Kenobi book, based on legends, he also had an EOB. So it'll be interesting if later on in the series. They the one that he bought, and that's in Kenobi is actually pregnant, like it wasn't a book.
Corey:That'd be kind of a nice little story.
Brooksie:Or even him, or even him meeting like, like, one of the characters that has and shares the same name as some of the characters from in the book. That would be that would be really cool. I wouldn't I would like that, but we'll see what happens with these next four episodes.
Tanner:So I just love that Kenobi had Obi Wan in general has a great relationship with these animals, a master and apprentice Revenge of the Sith. And now this what is the species that he's writing in? Revenge of the Sith? It's the same thing from a master and apprentice.
Corey:It's a fractal.
Brooksie:Yes, that's the one. Yep. Yeah.
Tanner:I'll go. So anyhow. The,
Corey:I just picked the three spider man standing off like
Tanner:in the Revenge of the Sith Novelization, it's actually really tragic that that fractal sacrifices itself to save Obi Wan. They develop that type of relationship. I mean, she moved out of the way so she would not she would take the brunt of it while Obi Wan would not. And in the novel, it's kind of tragic. How disgustingly pulverized essentially she is
Brooksie:now when you like, when you say the brunt of it in the novelization. Do you mean like l a t fire Clone Trooper fire from small arms. Or, like, one of the tanks
Corey:when they fall in the water? Yes.
Tanner:Okay, gotcha. She was vaporized.
Brooksie:Oh, wow. That's much different from the movie. Oh, yeah, that That almost seems. But yeah, I was gonna say that's much darker than the movie portrayed because they
Corey:remember. Yeah, I remember reading the revenge of this novel in like, seventh through eighth grade. Miss Sullivan's class, actually. Um, and it I remember there was a lot of things that stuck out in the book that going back and watching the movie after reading and I was like, where's that? Where's that at? That's a cool thing they do with novelizations. But going back to connote
Tanner:with the really quick just to finish that point off with all books you can get so much more into the medium than you can onto screen if that makes sense. Or else in it loses. It loses interest if you include all those little details on screen because you're just getting caught up in the minutia.
Corey:It's hard to because books get to explore like their thought processes and gets to explore like what's going through a character's mind in a way that like you can do voiceovers and you can have like narration but it's not always the best thing in the movie to have somebody like randomly voiceover a scene be like, Who's he talking to? Especially in Star Wars, you don't get a lot of like voiceovers very often. I thought the episode was great. Okay. What do you guys think of the third sister Reba? What do you think and so far?
Brooksie:She seems a lot like trilla from fallen order. She seems very like hell bent on tracking down Kenobi. Like just wants him eliminated without a doubt. And we're not really given into too much as to why. Maybe it's because he's that the Inquisitors know. He's the last surviving Jedi council member. So maybe if she kills him, then she'll get you know, she could tell Vader Hey, I killed Kenobi, which I mean Obviously he would probably get really upset about that and forced Joker but still
Tanner:I want to jump back to the very beginning of this episode really quick. I lost my shit during the order 66 Yes,
Corey:yes, yes,
Tanner:your collective shit gone. And I was certain I'm so so happy to have seen it because we've only seen little tiny pieces of it. And I'm such a lightsaber form nerd. I'm sitting there watching that master defend the young legs and I'm like, get out of form four. You're gonna die switch to Form three like Obi Wan and deflect that shit away. Okay. Yeah, I don't I look around. Okay.
Corey:So that scene? Ba were those live action clone troopers?
Brooksie:Yes. Yeah. I think I would. I would definitely say that. Those are live action clone troopers without a doubt. Yeah.
Corey:i The. So there's a theory going around. And I think we're all in agreement on this that the crew of Ottawans that that Jedi saves and that escape. I think one of those is going to end up being our character that we've that we've already met, possibly the third sister. Yeah, I would have to agree with that. Yeah, and maybe any of those other kids.
Brooksie:Um, it's, it's possible that one of them one of the other ones could have been an Inquisitor of some sort. I know a lot in the comics. A lot of the Jedi face against the Inquisitors on their own with their pat of wands, and it's not just Inquisitors as well, but purge troopers which are the last bits of clones that were they were like the very last wave of clones supposed to be sent to the frontlines. And then when already 66 happened they were rearranged to become purge troopers. So
Tanner:okay, okay, that makes sense. I had a theory that purge troopers were actually the remainder of the five oh, first because we know in legends that the five oh, first is kind of the last phased out unit because Vader prefers clones to stormtroopers, and they become Vader's fist.
Brooksie:I well, I can actually agree with that. That is a sound and a good theory in my opinion.
Corey:And it makes sense because it was either like, you know, five oh, first arc troopers and really well trained troopers that go on to fight Jedi or they end up like, like that five oh, first clone boy that we see. jumping, jumping way ahead, an episode that that broke my heart. So today, I was spared some things for a veteran.
Brooksie:That was just the fact that it was not a not a 212 clone, which was canabis own battalion, it was a five oh, first clone. And it it pulls on the heartstrings, because not only is that Anna kins own battalion? And if you know obviously him and Anakin had their own brotherly bond, but he probably at the time when he saw the clone, he's like, these are the clones that took down the temple. Like these are the clones that Anakin went with to enact order 66 on the temple. So this I think he was just having a lot of mixed emotions there and he was really also fearful that he wouldn't get recognized.
Tanner:True, true. I want to touch on a point and this point is Obi Wan did not steal the show in these first few episodes. That is true little whale are gonna did
Brooksie:us through oh my
Corey:god, adorable. She
Brooksie:She is definitely like, one by heart as well as a lot of other people who have really put in support for the show. And just the fact that what we had sent in the group chat the other day, I I'm pretty sure was one of you too. It was the picture of now we know why the name or something along the lines of now we know why the name Ben means something or something like
Corey:why lay a name or child Ben? Yeah.
Brooksie:So just just the fact that if some of you know for those listening, if if you've seen that meme, it makes a lot of sense as to why layin named Kylo Ren Ben, it just just the just the first. And the second that just these first two episodes, just how active he is on trying to help her is just amazing in general, like he's just going out of it. He's like, Okay, I can't risk her getting in danger. I gotta help bail. And his wife. I gotta find her because she's just as important as the boy.
Corey:i i took a little bit of issue with that because I feel like why not go to Yoda and be like Yoda, listen, or why doesn't bill go off on a mission? In a sense, like, it just kind of feels like, okay, Obi Wan is in charge of making sure that Luke is safe on tattooing. He's doing that he's hanging out there. Bill was supposed to make sure that Leila stayed safe on Alderaan he failed. Why does he now get to go tell Ben like, Hey, you're doing a great job actually, like better than me even. Ken, can you go cover my fuck up real quick? Like,
Tanner:it's this is a fair point. But I have to ask the question. Did Yoda tell anyone he was going to Degas?
Corey:No, not I don't think he mentioned this specifically. Now.
Tanner:I don't think I think he was gone. Essentially. I
Brooksie:think what he did was he just told Baal and Obi Wan that he was going into exile, but he did not say where
Tanner:he and even if he did tell them I highly doubt he anyone knows how to find him on day go by.
Corey:Right and only only Obi Wan would know after he was a force ghost because that's when it comes to Luke and he says you will go to the deco bus system. He only knows because he's like omnipresent in the force at that point. Yes. Okay. Okay. I can find that.
Tanner:I have to say this as well. I almost wish we got one episode instead of two because the ending of episode one with the lightsaber on his Hill as he's getting ready on his belt as he's getting ready to leave tattooing. Great ending scene.
Corey:I'll be honest, I feel the opposite. I'm actually extremely glad they released the first two episodes back to back because I don't think the first one was enough to really, I mean, it's Obi Wan. I'm gonna watch the series all the way through. But it wasn't enough to like fully hook me like the face that Obi Wan makes at the end of Episode Two. Oh, when he learned something that I only have thought about really? That he didn't know.
Tanner:Okay, we're obviously going to get into spoilers here. So yeah, let's just let's just jump to episode two because it was fantastic. What was the name of that system? They had to go to
Corey:Lydia or something like drawing
Brooksie:a blank. I'm pretty sure it was L shaped or L
Tanner:there was a D in there somewhere. I know that. But anyone else jumped for joy when they saw the flee from the Red Hot Chili Peppers as the fucking bounty hunter. Kidnapped
Corey:Raya out the way you see, yeah, he seemed familiar. I couldn't tell from one hour away.
Tanner:That's the fleet. And it's also remember he was in Back to the Future too bad. I knew that
Brooksie:he's been on multiple sci fi films now. Supposedly in the second episode, there, it's real quick, and it's real blurry. But some people have stated that Mark Hamill is in the second episode. Right? Yeah, it's really it's a real quick glimpse. And it you know, it's real blurry and he has his hood up. But I'm, I'm positive to believe that it's Mark Hamill.
Corey:I could buy it. I mean, he's hanging around Lucasfilm doing stuff for Mandalorian. And, I mean, who knows if we're lucky for other stuff, which we'll talk about a little bit later. But I mean, there's probably a ton of people that they're just like, Hey, you want to come be on an episode or something like real quick, like pop into Obi Wan for a second?
Brooksie:Just put on a roll. You know, just walk walk across the street. You don't have to say anything. Just just do that real quick and then you can be on your way. Something like that. Yeah,
Corey:we need an extra we know is going to keep their fucking mouth shut.
Brooksie:On unlike Tom Holland. Mr. Hamill is good at keeping his mouth closed.
Corey:Tom Holland does not get invited to anything. No, unless Sunday is there to cover
Brooksie:is. Yeah, that's true. That's true.
Tanner:Same with Mark Ruffalo. Everybody
Corey:Well, not everybody. I love that so much. You can see shields face like the moment he's just like dude.
Tanner:No, but that was a really cool bit of Obi Wan having to track down, especially the part where I can introduce you to a Jedi. And we meet hatia
Corey:Good ol Camille. I like that a lot. I like the idea of even 10 years after the Clone Wars have ended. The Myths of the Jedi are they're starting to fade so anybody is going to believe a convincing enough act.
Tanner:It's all magnets.
Corey:And there Yeah, exactly. And Obi Wan sniffs it out right away. He's just like, you faker. You fake it?
Tanner:I lost it when he's like this is the Jedi mind trick.
Corey:I am inside your brain now. Yeah. So good. Also, how about jumping back to the first episode just for a second because I feel like we got to mention now heartless Kenobi leaving other Jedi survivors to die and get strong that it is yes. And you can tell that Obi Wan is fighting. He's he's he's at his guard post to protect Luke. But even he's starting to lose faith in the idea of like, Colin's not gonna let him train the kid who lay is like on the loose. Now. He doesn't know that at the time they string up the Jedi. I'm pretty sure. And that's like one of the things that motivates him to go on the mission. Right?
Tanner:Yeah. Also, he had to be able to sense his lightsaber still with the kyber crystal because there's no fucking way in the Dune Sea. You're gonna find that thing again.
Corey:He's Yeah, I can't find my car on the Walmart parking lot. There's no way he's finding the right sand dune. We put in latitude and longitude and be like, ah, there we go. I also loved when he opens up the box with those hills. There the original Luke and Obi Wan hills like the same design for Yes,
Brooksie:absolutely. That was that was very awesome to see.
Corey:I was like, hey, the last time I saw these get buried, Ray was doing it. We'll just do one of them.
Tanner:Just yeah.
Corey:So it is nicely a nice little poetic tie to like, if the saber has been buried before it will be buried again. And it's Obi Wan going on the journey to redeem him taking up the sabre. And its re after finally doing what? Oops, sorry, what Anakin kind of failed to do to kill Palpatine finally put that saber to rest and adds poetry to it.
Brooksie:Yeah, I agree.
Tanner:So there's so much that happens in episode two action wise that I think we really just want to talk about like the big things right?
Unknown:I think so. Yeah.
Tanner:i How did you guys really quick feel about the parkour scene parkour kid immediately
Corey:thought of the office, the office episode where they're doing parkour. In fact, if you Yeah, if you check our Instagram on the stories, I made a little post about that. It's cool, man. Parkour is cool. It just seems like it was a it was a better sequence than when les was trying to run away from the most incompetent kidnappers I have ever seen. Yeah, besides the two guys from home alone.
Tanner:Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Brooksie:That's yeah, that's a that's a fair point.
Tanner:It was Harry and Marv plus one other one.
Corey:I know and it's just like, oh shit. A stick. We gotta go around man. Threepio
Tanner:but, but honestly, overall, I
Corey:thought the second episode did a great job of with pacing. That's that's the thing about the first episode felt kind of a little bit slower because it had to be you had to get that feeling of like, even Ben's like, Alright, I'm on the bus home. This sucks. I'm doing the same shit. The second episode. You're constantly moving and you get that feeling of like, I'm not sure what's going on. Just like Obi Wan is doing too. And it also felt like that episode of The Bad Batch where Hunter and Omega run off and Fenech has to like Rescue omega. I had that same, that same vibe when she starts to mistrust Obi Wan when the bounty goes out, and and so I was really afraid that they were going to drag that out of like, No, you're trying to kidnap me and she's going to be running from him for like an episode or two episodes, and they really tie that up, I think in a good way. Made them trust each other moving forward.
Tanner:Brooksie How did you feel about Obi Wan being so kind of dogshit with a blaster? Well, he
Brooksie:did after he killed grievous. He did say so uncivilized. And he did throw to grow it on the ground. So, I mean, honestly, it's I mean, it's been 10 years since the Cold war has ended his shot probably went way down the drain.
Corey:And that's why he talks shit about blasters in the new hope because just like clumsy random, I can't fucking use them. Yep, exactly, he dismisses them. It's like a good old lightsabers all again,
Brooksie:from almost rage.
Tanner:Yes. My next thing I want to talk about though, is that scene where Laya falls off the roof and he reaches out in the forest to catch her. I interpret that scene is that he is just rusty, because you hear him trying to reach out with Qui Gon at the beginning of the show. And it's not so much that he's cut himself off from the force, in my opinion, but that he just hasn't utilized his abilities. And it's like, reaching out over a great distance to to feel that again.
Corey:My whole thing was him cutting himself but I think he may have cut himself off from the force because with all the Inquisitors around, are they feeling his presence in the Force? Do they feel anything? Where we got to assume that Obi Wan so good, he can kind of mask his presence?
Brooksie:I'm sure it's probably something along the lines where it's probably very, very faint. But it's there
Tanner:like he didn't he's he's more trying to be in touch with the living force versus like the cosmic force essentially, is what the way I look at it, because the living force is what Qui Gon was all about that he was a follower of the living force. And I think that's what it is like, he's always able to sense stuff and things like that.
Corey:But his practical application gets rusty when you don't actually practice.
Brooksie:Yes, yeah. Yes.
Tanner:That's my interpretation of it. I did love how les is like you are a Jedi. It's her. It's her realization that the Jedi aren't just fairy tales. They're real. Yes,
Corey:it makes it real to her for the first time because they're extinct. And now a lot of people are getting kind of upset that she has met Obi Wan and they think that it's a breach of continuity. Because when she when she speaks to Obi Wan and the message in A New Hope, general Kenobi years ago, you served my father in the in the Clone Wars. You also hung out with me and saved me from three red lightsaber wielding dudes that one time in a busy city. I don't really care because they never call him Obi Wan Riva may yell it a couple of times, but he introduces themselves
Tanner:in the transport. Yep. So I agree with them I do like is a continuity error, but it is an easily explainable one. So you could just say she ever heard the name Obi Wan.
Corey:I don't think it breaks anything.
Tanner:No and Brooksie What's your take on that?
Brooksie:I would say with her finding out that it was Obi Wan said a band. It might be. It could what could happen is after he brings her back to bail. He'll probably say to her look. You can't you can't tell anyone about about him and where he where he lives. You know, it's, he's He's helping me out. So you just got to keep it very, very hush hush about it. And then of course, I'm in A New Hope. It's been another almost
Tanner:decade tenure. So
Brooksie:it's about another nine years and you know she goes to school she goes to she basically goes from being the daughter like a daughter of Bail Organa to an imperial senator in A New Hope by the time a new hope comes out. So a lot has happened. So I'm sure probably show eventually just forget about it.
Tanner:That's a possibility. What about the mind trick? What if because of the mission, he mind I was just gonna
Corey:say like forgetting the last scene of the show or the last interaction between the two of them is just like you've never met an Obi Wan Kenobi. Yeah, I've never met She's too smart for that. I would think even if
Tanner:she's also she's also a child which and we don't know how the mind trick is used on children. We've never seen it because it's probably unethical. My
Brooksie:only thing is that I feel like it wouldn't be effective because she's a mannequins daughter.
Corey:She's also very force sensitive that might awaken something in her eye. Allah been invading raise mind and all of a sudden she's just like, oh, shit, I can do that too.
Tanner:Yeah, um, but the next scene where Pasha helps him go to the automated transport though, where the bombshells dropped chills literal chills
Corey:Yeah, I like to they don't make his motivation. Obvious you think like he's going to take out Kenobi and then you're like, I didn't realize you were an actual Jedi. Like I actually respect and do this because I love Jedi. Like Sorry, dude. But then, like you said that reveal. She's she's on Obi Wan's tail. He's trying to get lay out of there safely. And she goes, he's alive. Didn't you know? Didn't you know your old patwon Anakin Skywalker. Darth Vader? He's alive. Yeah, just
Brooksie:just and then
Tanner:she go ahead, Turner. And then she stabbed the Grand Inquisitor in the gut.
Corey:Yes, that I did not see coming.
Brooksie:I did not see that coming. I did not see coming. I think that everyone was pretty shocked to see the Grand Inquisitor getting stabbed right in the stomach.
Tanner:Well, because we all watched rebels, and we know he's in that. And I was like, what off hook? And then it's the whole pot armor of only good guys die.
Brooksie:I mean, Sith or Sith followers. They get stabbed all the time. I mean, it's like, Hey, if you failed your mission, all right, chop, chop,
Corey:chop. What I think it is, is a story way of getting the Inquisitor like the Grand Inquisitor out of the way, because we know he survives to fight Ezra in Rebels and Canaan and and we know that Obi Wan is such a high priority target that if the Grand Inquisitor is in the fight, they're gonna have to come together at some yes and
Tanner:can and can he explains it away very easily that his species muons pounds. I can't remember. They have two stomachs. He's told explain away right
Brooksie:there. I mean, we're, we're talking about like, Luke, Anakin. They lost their arm and then Fennec Shan got her guts ripped out. So it's obvious. There's probably some type of cybernetics in her abdomen, or in his abdomen, excuse me. So there's no doubt he's, he's dead. Or excuse me, he's alive. Yes.
Corey:Some people are saying there's a second Grand Inquisitor. No,
Tanner:I mean, there could be then the only reason why I say there could be is in the high Republic comics, there was a set of Jedi brothers. And like their connection was there. So there could be too we don't know. We don't know.
Corey:It's possible. It's I mean, who's to say that there's not like a whole bunch of grand inquisitors. I mean, there's a bunch of power ones running around. It's not hard to believe that they were probably a few of them that were Jedi Temple guards that were like, You know what, the Jedi are wack. I'm gonna go fight for the dark side seems like a good idea.
Tanner:Yeah, it absolutely could be. But the reveal and Obi Wan's face that reveal that Anakin is alive that Darth Vader is alive. And I love the scene because the moment she says Darth Vader, he instantly knows. Because he saw the recording in the Jedi Temple
Corey:that got me thinking again about how when Obi Wan goes into the temple, in Revenge of the Sith with Yoda, he's fighting five oh, first clones like he must have known in his heart of hearts already. Like who could have done this? Well, I don't know maybe the guy who is in charge of this entire legion of clones that just stormed off and killed a bunch of Jedi Yeah. So so he you can see all of the emotion coming back to Obi one's face the moment she says Vader and then she says his name, which it's a pretty closely guarded secret at this point in the canon. Vader is
Tanner:There's only as far as we know, at this time, there is only one person that truly knows that Darth Vader is Anakin Skywalker. And that is Darth Sidious. Yes, don't ya, everyone else has thought. Everyone else has their suspicions like Tarkin does. And there's one other person that has their suspicions about it as well. But no one can confirm it that it's that it's
Brooksie:actually technically there is two. But it's and that's Thrawn.
Corey:Yes, right. Yeah, he does sniff it out.
Tanner:He based on the tag, he
Brooksie:does put two and two together eventually, but he, he does know he's like, Hey, I've met you before you're definitely someone I've met. And I I'm pretty sure in the comics, he doesn't say that you're Anakin Skywalker. But he does put two and two together.
Tanner:How it works in the comics is he study because he comes to the Empire to learn for the Chiss ascendancy like about military tactics and things of that nature. And he studies a flight maneuver that Anakin does, and he watches Vader do it. And that's what makes him think that this is Anakin Skywalker,
Corey:isn't it the mark Sable, the one that Anakin teaches Ahsoka, and like one of the first couple episodes of the Clone Wars, I think, and Anakin ends up using it a bunch and I think he uses it with Thrawn. And then we're on turns and uses that against somebody else later. So I'm pretty sure
Tanner:space combat move.
Brooksie:Yeah, he might have used it. I know for a fact he uses it a couple of times in the Thrawn Trilogy, written by Timothy's on and then he might use it once I believe in Rebels.
Tanner:Yeah, I don't I don't know. But yeah, it's a very closely guarded secret, which the fact that Riva knows that Anakin Skywalker is Darth Vader, tells me again that she's one of the paddle ones at the temple that we saw.
Corey:And she must have seen him, like at one point or another in the temple, slaughtering those young Ling's and she knows and either she's trying so hard to get Obi wan to get into his favor, or she wants to uproot him, you know, take over his nation.
Tanner:I think it's earning his favor, because we could see the presence of Vader that they put in fallen order and in Rebels it just when he shows up versus an inquisitor. Everyone just talks about how it's just chilling. Yeah. Yeah, like the Inquisitors are scary. But Vader is just terrifying. Just being in the same room as him. Yeah.
Corey:Yeah. Everybody like that?
Brooksie:I'm like, No, go ahead. Okay. There's, there's there's few instances, and just hearing the breathing. Or if you're a force sensitive, you feel cold. It's just like, you get that you get that fear. And then if you if you know who like what, like, why is this, like, if you're a force sensitive, like as always, like, it feels cold? Like, why? Why does it feel cold, and then he meets Vader. And it's, the fear comes out. And then he uses that fear, and it's just more power to him. And it's just this constant feeding trope that Vader uses against his enemies. And it's just incredible how he's able to do that.
Tanner:Yeah, well, I think that's the big difference between the dark side user and a Sith. Like a dark side user will use the negative emotions but a Sith truly knows how to channel and harness and just terrorize with them. Yes, yes.
Corey:Well, it's just like how we see Riva going into was Hajah. I've had Yeah, going into his mind, and it's not as invasive IPS as we see like when mall goes into a closed mind. He's like, I don't care what damage I do. I'm after the information like I'm gonna rip it from you. So it is that difference of like the Sith have this like refined savagery and desire to get what they want so much, so I don't think the Inquisitors have that they're too afraid of Vader. They've all each lost a hand to him, which Riva then does to a couple of people to scare them in the first episode. Tactics.
Tanner:Yeah, Vader took a hand from all or a whim from all the Inquisitor speak and even Sidious was like, Why the hell did you do that for and he's just like, yeah, they need to learn to live without it.
Corey:If it worked for me, it'll work for them, says old VEDA
Tanner:but after the realization that Anakin is alive, and they are on the cargo freighter. Just the single tear rolling down Obi wants a face when he says Anakin. And the next scene is as soon as he sends it as Vader senses that Obi Wan is like looking for him in the force, his eyes open in the back the tank.
Brooksie:What makes it makes it better is that this isn't just any actor. This is Hayden. And when I saw when I when I saw Episode Two I was like, wow, we are in for a really good fight at some point. Or at least immediate Yeah, at some point. And just just how, like he's able to wake up. And he's like, All right, well, it seems our fight isn't finished.
Tanner:Know Exactly. And it's really cool to see that we are at a stage where Obi Wan is so down in the dumps, and so depressed and miserable and just PTSD and everything. That now we have a story to go from that Obi wan to hopeful Alec Guinness Obi wash and it also gives us the backstory of rich the lion in return to the Jedi Obi Wan once thought as you did like chills I have literal chills right now.
Corey:All right, yeah. I think of in A New Hope when Obi Wan is on on the Deathstar invaders. Like I said something a presence I've not felt since we're gonna see that since we thought it was on Mustafar but there's more common man. And we're gonna see Obi Wan like really trying to appeal to the to the human side. And getting to the point where he's seasoned tells Luke he's more machine now than man like dude, trust me. I've tried. I've tried to get through to him. A soak has tried to get through to him
Tanner:Do you think do you think he goes on the hunt to find a Ahsoka or does he think Ahsoka is dead? Is like I was
Brooksie:I was thinking about that when I'm Tamara Morrison played as the clone I thought I was like if they if he knows about the fate of Vader if he thinks he's dead obviously later on he figures out that he's alive. I I actually questioned I was like wait a minute, I wonder if he thinks about Ahsoka at all because all three of them were very close throughout the entirety of Clone Wars. The five oh first and the 212 work together like all the time every mission that they did they were both together both legions well
Tanner:and that's gonna be the interesting thing is because do you think Ahsoka had access to the transmission that will be your Antoine sent out about don't return to the temple, the Jedi Order is fallen, because she would know he's alive if they if she saw that at any point.
Corey:If she had access to a holocron, I would imagine which I don't think they mentioned in the book but again, they don't always stick to the book stuff so I'm sure she's seen the mess in the
Brooksie:in the book the only the only person she meets that's in contact with Kenobi is bale and are two. That's it. That's all it says in the Ahsoka book. So I was kind of hoping when I was reading it that bale would be like so just letting you know. I can't say where but Kenobi is alive and Master Yoda as well and I can't tell you where they where they are. Sorry,
Tanner:I ended up I ate a tootsie roll on a stuck in my teeth.
Corey:That's fine. All right. I like the idea of Ahsoka kind of being like on her own a little bit like a drift during during this period and having to find her way. And it's like it's like when Ezra goes to find Obi Wan Ezra talks about it to Canaan and Canaan's like if Obi Wan's even alive, chances are, he would be helping us and if not, he's doing something else. Yeah, you know, for reason. Well, before
Tanner:we go much further, you and I, in the past have talked about how mad I would be if it looked like Obi Wan was getting his ass kicked by an inquisitor. I'm not mad about it anymore. Especially seeing how he's lived. His adult especially,
Corey:it would take him getting whooped by an inquisitor I think to get him to the point where he's gonna start refining his skills. He's gonna start practicing again because he knows he's supposed to train Luke. And he has to get to the point where he can fight Mall. Yeah when Mark is a straight up assassin in that fight so he's not there right now.
Tanner:But at the same time it goes back to the novelization of Revenge of the Sith in the fight against grievous the he was picked to fight grievous because he was the only one considered to be able to outclass him because of his form three super defensive mastery of lightsaber combat. That being said, in their novelization, there's a passage where it says something along the lines of he has to give into the force and let and let the forest guide his movements in order to flank all of the blades coming at him. In my opinion, he will have some like, he'll be rusty have some skill with it. But he won't be able to reach that trance like state until he gets to Vader.
Corey:When he does, do you think that's when he, he will finally give himself into the force again, like that, and that's when he communes with Qui Gon, kind of giving it that tie to master and apprentice, because Quagga is trying to teach him, you get into that get into that groove, get into the state. And then once it'll be once it sinks into it, again, is just open to quiet guy being like, Good job will be one, you know,
Tanner:it could be, it could be a genuinely could be. But there's a lot coming in the series, and I don't really want to speculate because I don't know where we know where it's gonna end and where it has to end. But we don't know what's going to take place in the meantime, and I don't even want to speculate.
Corey:Exactly, I like not knowing I mean, of course, I I'm gonna like try and figure out like, Okay, what is they laid down? Where could this go, but we also brushed over really quick. We know especially there's the scene where Obi Wan has the nightmare and he sees young Anakin and then the next day he sees young Luke like exactly the spitting image of his father. We don't really ever see much of Kenobi and his regret about padman It's not mentioned a lot but when he is talking to little Leia and she and he's like You remind me of someone you know a leader she was stubborn you can see like, he has that moment of like God dang
Brooksie:I don't think he was just talking about Padma though. I was
Tanner:if you look at his face he's literally debating which one of your parents are you acting?
Brooksie:I well I wasn't referring to her parentage
Corey:was he thinking of
Brooksie:was referring to serotine
Tanner:Stop all of you stop he you guys the internet can stop it with that he's referring to Padma because it's the only thing that fits in that moment.
Brooksie:I just I still believe that he even up until when a new in A New Hope when he gets cut down he's still thinking about the team but not exactly enough that it motivates yes yeah exactly. Well,
Tanner:I mean let's move on and guys celebration was this weekend
Corey:what a celebration did that was there was a lot I'm so
Tanner:mad that I can't that we have to be have normal lives and we couldn't
Brooksie:I agree just watching some of the videos that all the actors Sam went were Hayden and Ewan McGregor all meeting you know Sam what were with the with the microphone just doing the voice line from rebels resist like cut and obey and the whole crowds just go and wild. And then later, Hayden just with the microphone. This is where the fun begins. Just like in the beginning of Episode Three. I was like, Oh man, what I would pay to be there. That was just incredible.
Tanner:It's it was so incredible. And we got so much coming.
Corey:For me it was the moment during the attack of the clones panel where they had Ashley Eckstein, Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor sitting next to each other and I'm like, That's snip sky guy and crap. What's his negotiator? Oh, yes, the negotiating.
Tanner:Yeah, I mean, it was it was really cool. To see how happy happy Hayden was to be welcomed by the Star Wars community.
Brooksie:Oh, for sure. Cuz, I mean, after after Episode Three came out, everyone bashed on the prequels hard. And after a while, he said, you said the other day. In an interview, like not too long ago. He's like, it's interesting. And I love the fact that all the Star Wars fans have like, you know, slowly accepted me it's almost like of age like fine wine, the prequels of age like fine wine and And he's like, he he just just feel so welcome now to be a part of like the family?
Tanner:Well, I think it goes to show that he's not a bad actor, it's never was that it was the dialogue that he was given by George Lucas. And we all know those horror stories of George Lucas as a director, he literally comes on set and just says,
Corey:act. Yeah. I mean, what else is a director supposed to do? I mean, except for other stuff. Direct. But it was nice hearing. Even and him both talking about the difference between like with George, they were working on blue screens and like, you can't get into it. And then using the volume now, it's like, you can act you can be a part of the scene and not have to like imagine like, oh, yeah, there's a desert over there. I think I'm kind of picturing it. I'm not sure.
Tanner:Well, Natalie Portman has said it that she had a hard time with her role in the Thor movies as well as in Star Wars, because it's all green screen. She said that it's very hard to get into the character. And I it shows it really shows not having an actual set, you have to be a fucking hell of an actor in order to pull it off if that's the whole movie. And it's nothing against George. He's an absolute special effects, visionaries and everything. It's just, he did what he did for the sake of pushing technology and not for creating the best working environment for actors.
Corey:He will Yes, he very much was trying to make the better story and wasn't 100% about you know, the, I mean, he was also very much about the people that were helping him tell the story, but is very much you're right in charge of driving the technology.
Tanner:He doesn't really understand the actor's persona, like that part of it that you need to be immersed in it, which is
Corey:why I love what we have nowadays, because we have a Dave Filoni, who can basically be the creative like George and then we have all these directors like Deborah Chow, Rick Fleming, you all the people who have brought like Mandalorian and Boba Fett episodes to life. And, and I feel like already in the first two episodes of Kenobi, we get that feeling of one director, one vision, and we're going forward with it. versus some of the other shows kind of feel disjointed. In a sense, Boba Fett is kind of like an anthology film. Mandalorian is like a week to week until you get towards that the end episodes. Yeah. So it's nice to kind of have that, like a someone in charge. And you can feel it with Filoni and Fabbro. And then everybody else just bringing the vision to life helping because George didn't have all that
Tanner:know exactly. He was the guy he really was the guy he had so many things going on at one time. So it's hard. But moving on again, guys, what are you most excited about that we got announced? We got a long way.
Brooksie:There. There's a lot that we saw Jedi survivor email. Yeah, absolutely. Fallen order the internet.
Tanner:I'm not even going to speculate there because my only speculation is that we can be anywhere between five and 10 years in the future because you can even see on cow how much older he laughs
Brooksie:Yes.
Corey:Is that is that age? Or is that the graphics and gaming getting even better since then? Or is it a
Tanner:I would think it I would go with age because if we if we want to progress the story more, we can't really just have him running from Vader the whole time. Like we need to have something else more to it for them to have a purpose. From that scene that we got in the cinematic trailer of what looks like the Grand Inquisitor or it's just a pool on Secretary for the Inquisitors who the hell knows. It sounds like he's been running for a while like he's one of the last loose ends that they have to track down.
Corey:Two questions raised from that trailer One Who the heck is that in the tank?
Tanner:I think it's Marin.
Corey:I Marin
Brooksie:believe that that is actually a male and I speculate that it's Giroux a shot by off
Corey:okay, yes, I thought that especially because bad batch. Bad Batch is setting up. I mean, they go to Mount tantas at the very end of that to say I mean, if you know there's
Brooksie:a lot of like Timothy Zhan like bread crumbs. They're throwing some bread crumbs.
Tanner:I mean, it could be we have no details, but I'm excited for him.
Corey:And there's also was he fighting a red blade? Was that a sense? Was that a vision? Who the heck is even redblade In these days?
Tanner:Yeah, we don't know. We don't know it's either an inquisitor it's a Sith it we don't know. There's a lot we don't have enough to go on. We just have an amazing cinematic and Did we get a release date?
Corey:August
Brooksie:No. 2023 It said next 20 Next year, pretty much next summer
Tanner:and I need to finish building my gaming PC because it's not going to be on previous gen consoles.
Corey:Speaking of building they also announced there's a one to one scale Lego be the one that like, I don't know if it can move or anything but I'm totally getting one of those that's gonna sit on
Tanner:a lot of money. That's a lot of money. Well, the little like Cory Oh BD one. I'm thinking BB eight. Sorry.
Brooksie:Yeah, like Cory though, I definitely want to invest in a LEGO Star Destroyer. At some point. I just need to shelve space for it. But I again$700 Later, you know,
Tanner:not worth it. Not worth it.
Brooksie:This would be like way, way down the road when I'm like ready to retire.
Tanner:We have to get shows to we got some show.
Corey:There's a ton of shows. We got an Android trailer finally. And
Tanner:trailer where I'm excited for. But I'm excited for it. Because it'll be it'll be the down and dirty side of the rebellion. I think.
Corey:Yes, I really like how we're gonna get it looks like there was clone troopers at one point and they almost it looks like we're gonna get
Brooksie:go ahead and finish Cory.
Corey:I was just gonna say because Cassius parents were separatists. So I think we're gonna get to see a very different perspective on the end of the clones. Initially, yes,
Brooksie:I was. I was just about to say that you had mentioned the other day that Cassius parents worse, more separatist. So I'm wondering if maybe the separatists are? Well, no, I It's interesting to think that the Empire is affecting everyone who is loyal to the Republic and who weren't loyal to the Republic. So we're getting the other side of the Clone Wars perspective on what what's going on when order 66 happens?
Tanner:Yes, that'd be cool. I'm excited for it. I think it's going to set up some big things moving forward. But you know what I was most excited about. Was it the show? Well, no, but yes, it was. It was part of that whole announcement. It was my little terrorist friend coming onto the stage with Miss Dawson
Corey:chopper I love it.
Brooksie:So we now have confirmed that Ahsoka season one will basically be what Rebels Season Four in a sense it all we follow is that shebeen Ezra and Hera are going to make an appearance in the Ahsoka show and
Tanner:and sharper and sharper we can't forget shopper
Brooksie:our favorite other astromech droid
Tanner:I mean, he I'm gonna say something shitty, but I actually think I like chopper more than I like our tiny
Brooksie:choppers chopper is definitely number two in my opinion, but you can't beat the classic our favorite silver and blue droid
Tanner:Oh, it's minuscule it's minuscule. I think chopper has more attitude and that's what I like about him
Corey:like that. It's understandable in the words of chopper will fold from
Brooksie:thrown up the little arms to throw it up the little arms that he does.
Corey:Art is offensive.
Tanner:One of my favorites in one of my favorite episodes in Rebels is when he has to steal the goddamn leg for himself the stable Yeah.
Corey:And he goes off on his own mission. Is that where he needs AP five, the Tim Curry droid
Tanner:dude and he beats the snot out of the gods Imperial captain on that ship with the with the Strat that he just got he's just like you just killed my friend. You're gonna
Corey:be he is a little terrorist right? He's a murderer but
Brooksie:definitely welcomes the fact that the Imperials labeled him as a terrorist. He's like yep 100% 100% I am a terrorist.
Tanner:I will destroy them.
Brooksie:I will destroy every storm trooper IC. If they are an imperial they will die.
Tanner:Yeah, pretty much. It's true. Yeah, he is. He's one of my favorite parts of the new of the new Disney stuff is chopper. I agree on top of that, guys, we have mando season. Oh, excuse me. Sorry, guys. It's season three is coming out February of 2023.
Corey:Happy Birthday me. Yeah. They did adjust for me. I know. Same with Clone Wars Season Seven
Tanner:is did they say a soak is taking place at that time period that that's when it's releasing.
Corey:I haven't I don't remember when they're three weeks into production already. And apparently they had enough to show footage at the panel. It didn't end up getting released. But now I guess they have footage already that looks like ready to go.
Tanner:Yeah, but then we've got another one tales of the Jedi which is gonna be an anthology about Anwar air Yeah. Prequel air different Jedi and I think there's going to be a Yoda comic series. Yeah,
Brooksie:so there's the Yoda comic series but with the tales of the Jedi we have a very young Count Dooku we have Qui Gon and our favorite toe Gruta Ahsoka when she was just an infant before blow goon founder
Tanner:okay, I'm down with all of this I don't even care if it's animated live action don't care given
Brooksie:by judging by the judging by the photos. It looks like it's animated in it it almost seems like a clone wars style or Bad Batch style animation. At least that's what it looks like.
Corey:I like that they should stick with that animation style honestly, because they've refined it to like it's perfect. The good stuff from Clone Wars the good stuff from rebels and whatever they did in season seven and bad batch. Just keep that going for the animation style. It tried branching out in Did you ever watch resistance? No,
Brooksie:I did watch resistance that once once that animation style is kind of like the weird 3d anime style and I was I've seen beauty videos of resistance and I'm like, Oh no. Oh no. What are you
Corey:tweeted? It's not Yeah, it's
Brooksie:it looks very odd. But however what they've done with like you said bad batch season seven of Clone Wars. It just looks phenomenal. It's perfect. Just keeps out right there. Maybe update here and there. But other than that, just just leave it.
Tanner:And speaking of it, we got the bad batch Season Two trailer.
Brooksie:Yes. Yes.
Tanner:One word lost my mind.
Corey:Genji goon G
Brooksie:survive.
Tanner:Hi. I freaked out man. I love that little rookie guy that's running around right now.
Corey:Do you think he survived with the other pet Juan's as a group or do you think he is the sole survivor of that group of headlines from the from the Khyber episode I'm
Brooksie:not going to say anything. I think I don't want to make any speculation I'm going to see what what transpires in the show. I am however particularly excited that another clone survived or while another clone will be making appearance and Bad Batch Season Two. Commander Cody Yes, he is
Corey:he I have to watch the trailer again. I missed it. It's
Brooksie:it's it's quick snippet, but he's definitely in the second season.
Corey:Oh, okay. Okay, it looks like Rex was coming back to which I think we all kind of assume.
Tanner:Well, you know what I also like seeing the Commandos, the clone commandos.
Brooksie:We definitely always love going commando, but I definitely love the fact that we saw scorch again, it makes me it makes me wonder if he's going to be making more of an appearance in this second season.
Corey:I hope so. He's my favorite of that team of Delta Squad. And if they make him canon, even more so and give him stories and time.
Brooksie:I mean, I just want to just see the fact that they've been pulling a lot of stuff from games, the books, the legends books, is just incredible. It's it's taking stuff that a lot of fans love. And they're putting it into canon. And it's just keep doing that.
Tanner:Well, that's what yeah, that's what's happening. Now, they didn't do that with the sequel trilogy. They didn't. They just said, Nope, we're getting rid of that stuff. This is what we're doing. And they're realizing that it's really not the way to go. And that there's really good stuff that us as fans are very attached to, and that we want to see and they're doing a really good job picking and choosing what they're putting in now, and how it fits into the story that they've already set up.
Corey:I listened to an interview with Filoni earlier, one of the celebration panels and he was talking about like, that's one of the most important things right now is that there's so many things in the legends that people are attached to that people love deep down with their heart, and they want to be able to bring those in, but also have it still be organic, and have it still be, you know, to have it make sense and have it not just be entirely for fanservice and and to be able to say also for them to be like No, not that character. That character doesn't quite fit the situation right now. And that's, I mean, that's, I think what we've been wanting from Star Wars Seems like they weren't picky and choosey enough in the sequels, and now they're actually kind of they're doing it for the right reasons when they introduce those characters into the candidate war stories or concepts.
Tanner:We know how I feel about the sequels, but I will 100% say it was bad direction from the top. And I think they're learning from that mistake.
Brooksie:I agree. I agree. They're definitely they're realizing not just them, but that's the top in the not just, you know, Star Wars itself is. But that's a topic for another day, but I, a lot of the fans are giving their input. And the higher ups are realizing okay, maybe we should look at some older stuff that the fans love, and kind of take that and put it into Canaan. And so far, it's been working.
Tanner:Yes, the one of the biggest changes early on that I loved though, and I'm 100% on board with is that the red lightsaber crystals aren't synthetic anymore. That's still something I love. I like I love that they have to pervert basically a Jedi lightsaber to make it do that they have to make it bleed. And I think that's one of the coolest things. That brings me to another thought we saw in the comics how hard it was for Vader to bleed a crystal. I don't think an inquisitor can do it. Do you think that he just that Vader just had to sit there and bleed dozens of crystals. So mad. Fuck my life. I hate myself.
Corey:I've been of the mind that Shiva ended up sitting on a couple of crystals somehow. And he had some sit sabers laying around it is possible one way or another?
Brooksie:Because I mean, he killed Plagueis so I'm sure that was one one extra crystal he had maybe by chance
Tanner:nalcor You answer my question? No, you answered my question. Rule of Two a master to have the power and apprentice to crave the power and then surpass the master so every time they kill the master there's extra crystals lying around but you have to prove yourself and get your own crystal
Brooksie:so it sounds like there's probably just a like a several red crystals around that have already been bled Yeah, I can. Yeah.
Tanner:Or, or there's also, there's also in the higher public novel that light of the jet I think one of the people one of the Jedi mentioned in there took a crystal that was already in the temple that was a Sith crystal and purified it to have lightsabers so that's the other option is that he just took all the Sith crystals that were locked down in the temple and gave them out
Brooksie:that is
Corey:imagine by even an inquisitor who didn't bleed that crystal would still be like oh man there's a lot of hate in this I can kind of like fueled by it it the way cannon is handling kyber crystals now makes them feel even more like like a Harry Potter magic wand like yes, it is your your, your utility your your tool. But there's also like a something inside it that you're connected with, like a phoenix feather a unicorn hair or whatever. But it's it. It makes it unique to each character.
Brooksie:Yeah, in it. It's it's definitely in the Ashoka book is definitely tied in a little bit that each Jedi, at least for her, it almost has like a like a song each kyber crystal has like a type of song to it. So it's forming a symbiotic bond with the Jedi or Sith. And they work together. What to say, you know, it's two sides of the same coin. So if you know, Ahsoka purified it, then that's her crystals. And then bater you know, made his own by pouring in all of his hay. So I it's I agree with Tanner with the whole kyber crystals deal that they're doing now. It's definitely better than the whole. Oh, yes, it just get synthetic crystals. That's it. Now there's a whole process to it now, which makes it better. What I'm hearing
Tanner:anything else you want to talk about? Because we're getting on the later side here
Corey:as well? Yes, we are. There was one more live action series that was announced. That was skeleton crew with Jude long that looks interesting. Not take more Jude Law in Star Wars really much
Brooksie:about that. But just the fact that yeah, Jude Law is in it. It's I mean, I'm willing to keep an open mind about it and see what kind of show we're looking at here with that.
Corey:I think so there's, there's young Jedi adventures, which is supposed to be a kid show that is based in the Heil Republic. You know, first animated show from the high Republic, I guess they're launching into wave two phase two of high Republic, which is even before might have the Jedi and is supposed to go further back into the time period of the Republic. So we're getting closer and closer tonight to the older pie.
Brooksie:I like that. I like that a lot. The more the further back we go, the the better, the better. And it's, the better it is because I know Tanner's gonna agree with me 100% That as long as we get a reven something with Keanu Reeves and it will be a Okay.
Tanner:Well, that could also tie in I'm dying over here, ladies and gentlemen, that ties
Corey:riikola The Lawson's that we should have, like, seriously sponsor us.
Tanner:No, I was choking on my own spit. Sorry, guys. Hey,
Corey:Ricky Bobby style.
Tanner:I they could tie the Reverend story like a cannon Reverend story into the game they can make that they say this is the this is the cannon now. We're using the game as that platform. And that is officially canon. They could do that. And I would live with that. But I'm glad we're moving further back. What else we got Corey?
Corey:Um, beyond that. Star Wars hunters is a four v four arena Fighter game that they're coming out with. They dropped some stuff on that doesn't really look like my thing. But go people have confirmed
Brooksie:Star Wars vision Season Two.
Tanner:Oh, yes, I forgot. And I would definitely be about that. Like I picked and choose what I watched from visions, because some of it just wasn't interesting to me. But I really liked the concept of this.
Brooksie:I show so very much love the first episode. Because 10 out of 10 out of 10 because George Lucas, a lot of those old black and white samurai movies inspired a lot of like Star Wars. And you know, I don't know about Indiana Jones but just the fact that that was kind of like going back to the roots. In in a sense mixing mixing. The original with what Lucas has created was just incredible. And just the how it the art style. How everything except for the lightsabers, which was really cool. Just looked phenomenal. I love the first episode of visions. I could probably
Corey:the only one I've seen.
Tanner:I've seen a few other ones. They're they're okay, I liked the first one. But you know, it's an it's a pick and choose kind of thing because it's an anthology. Yeah, sure. It's,
Brooksie:it's, it's different animation styles with the each episode. It's, it's something to kind of like pull you in a little bit. It's, you know, just to kind of see like, Oh, this is it's different perspectives, in a way. But
Corey:I don't mind. I'll definitely check it out real quick. And then I think we should probably call it a night. What did you guys think of at the event Star Wars Celebration you had mentioned very briefly. Um, they also did a willow trailer, a willow panel and an Indiana Jones thing. Did you guys kind of feel like it was like, Okay, why don't we just call it Lucasfilm celebration. Yeah. Were you guys? Disney synergy?
Brooksie:Yeah, I agree.
Tanner:I think they could have done that at a different point at like a investors day announcement because it felt like a D 23 kind of thing. Yeah, it really did. It's not something I want to see at Celebration, like, it's very much paid. This is what we're working on. If that goes at D 23. This is the Star Wars we're working on that goes at celebration because it's Star Wars Celebration.
Corey:Yeah, that that's how I felt about that. But of the stuff that we got. I mean, obviously we haven't had a celebration in years, but this was the best celebration and yours. I think
Brooksie:just how many people were just in support of Hayden, Sam. Ashley, you and you know with his with his new show, just the how, how much. How much love that the fans have given to the celebration this year was just incredible. And I said I hope they definitely do it again at some point. I I don't know about every year but I hope they do it again.
Corey:The next one's a new year every
Tanner:two years. Yeah. Okay. UK they go to the UK I think that I want to do one I think they're gonna do every two years in the states if I remember right and that's I could be totally wrong. I thought I heard read something about that at but hey at some point
Brooksie:100% 100%
Tanner:All right guys, I think we need to leave it there for tonight because it is 10 o'clock at night here on the East Coast and we all have a regular job to go to.
Corey:I'm ready for bed. I got my first day tomorrow, so I'm gonna have some some Star Wars he dreams tonight. How can you not after all of that.
