  Speaker 2: Hello everyone, Welcome back to another episode of Star Wars Lands,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: where I'm your host Katie And just in case anybody
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: else didn't know, I'm technically a blonde. Hi, Klay, how
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: are you doing today?
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: So context context, Hi, I'm here too. Uh. Katie and
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I were talking about uh because Mara had a little
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: cameo before recording and I was like, wow, her hair
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: is getting a lot brighter or is that just the sunlight.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: She's like, oh, it's sunlight, but it's technically this color.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: It's our color. I was like, no, no, no, no, no,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: you don't have that color hair. Katie like, I don't
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: know if you know this about your hair, but that's
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: not the color. And she's like no, no, no, Clay,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: you don't know because look at this. And she sends
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: me all of these photos or just one, and then
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I had to go creep on our Instagram for a
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: second and my brain melted for a second. I was like,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: what is this twilight zone that I'm seeing?
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, Katie is a natural blonde and is in
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: disguise as a brunette. Yeah.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: I needed a drastic hair change in college and I
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: never went back.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: So, see, it's been a long time since I've had
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: a well, I say that, I am pretty sure sometime
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: right before or right after we found out that Abby
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: was pregnant. I don't know if you remember this, I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: shaved my head.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Yep, I do remember that because you got on the
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: podcast that I was like, dude, are you okay?
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, So it's been it's been a minute since
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I've had a dramatic hair change. I have since thought about, like, hey,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: you know, it is hot here in Texas. It's pretty disgusting,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and although I would love to get my long, luscious
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: hair back, I can't do this heat. I need I
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: need to do something, So I think I'm I think
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna very soon get a clean cut here and
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: maybe just a trim. But again, it's hot, so it's
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: stay hydrated, Stay very hydrated. That is.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Originally we were going to be talking about a comic,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: but we both struggled reading the comic because miscommunication. So
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: we're going to be talking strictly D twenty three today,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: which we did not think we were going to have
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: a lot to talk about. But guys, that.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Totally okay, Okay, now that makes more sense. Because it's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: all coming back to me. Now. I'm over here making
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: the recording room and I'm like, oh, only D twenty
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: three stuff. It's gonna be a short podcast. Now that
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: you say it, I'm like, oh, wait a second. That's
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: why the comic was supposed to be today, because I
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: was to be small news and then the review and
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: then that was it. So yeah, Katie's over here trying
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: to save my ass and I'm just gonna say it
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: out right. I totally forgot, guys, and I totally forgot it.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: It was such Today was chaotic. Today was totally chaotic.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: But we're here to talk D twenty three and Star
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Wars guys. Like Katie said, we weren't expecting much. I
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: feel like a lot more came out that we think.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: We both forgot about Ahsoka season two when we were
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: talking D twenty three predictions. Yeah, we never talked to
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Soca season two.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: At all, which is wild because Ahsoka season two has
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: been something that we have both have been very excited about,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: been anticipating for quite some time because.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Because it's been three years.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It has been three years, and that's been I was
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: gonna say that has been the very big talking point
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: from us is Okay, it's three years. What's going on?
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Where's the news? How are we going to get through this?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: And when are we finally going to see it? We
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: got that date. By the way, it was leaked at
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: d twenty three. It wasn't even announced that. No, do
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: you know what is the poster? The poster? Somebody took
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a picture of the poster and people were like, oh,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: my gosh, it has the date on the poster, and
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: then people started to say, oh, official announcement.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: That's why when I was making the show notes, I
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: couldn't actually find the poster because the poster didn't exist
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Saturday morning when I was making the show notes.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, so we have a confirmation date for that. We're
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: going to talk about that soon. But we do have
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: some actual show notes. Katie, just like she said, was
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: a nice enough to actually make some show notes for
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: us today. If you guys did not see the thumbnail.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Here we have Ahsoka and then we have a little
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: bit about Starfighter. Now, there was a video leaked. I
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: watched it. I'm not going to show it here, and
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: I shared it with Katie. We're not going to show
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: it here, but we are going to discuss, and I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: will actually be able to show you something that of discussion.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: One of the big things about this movie is a
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: big talking point is the jacket that Ryan Gosling is
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: gonna be wearing as his character. The only reason why
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be able to show you that is for
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the fact that in Jedi Survivor somebody moded the jacket
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: onto uh Onto Calkestis, and so I have a snapshot
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: of the mod. Shana says, Hi, Hello everybody.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I see that we have quite a few people here
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: in the chat today or at least viewing us. Thank
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you so much for being live with us today. But
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: today we're going to start off with our conversation with
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Star Wars Starfighter.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Yes, we're gonna start with big boos and we're gonna
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: end with big news. So we've got some stuff in
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the middle. Makes a nice svandwich.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Yes. So first thing that we have here the notes
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: is the reveal of the logo. The logo was very specific,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: I feel like in what will be a huge marketing
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: push for Star Wars Starfighter. And the reason why I
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: say that is I'm actually going.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: To Are you gonna share it or am I gonna
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: share it.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna grab it right now. We have an
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: official logo.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: It's very old school Star Wars. It fits the vibe
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: of the fiftieth anniversary of Star Wars while also kind
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: of drawing your eye to the movie title itself because
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the movie title Starfighter is in the middle of the
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: old school logo star Wars, so makes makes for cool. Look,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: that's the wrong way.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know why it's sharing it like that. Here,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, I'll share it this way here,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: how about this? Uh, I don't know why it shared it.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Freaking look said that, I'm gonna share the plot synopsis.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: It says, when a cynical rogue is confronted by his
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: mysterious pass, he has hurled into a dangerous adventure across
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: the galaxy that puts him on a crash course with destiny.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: So this is very old school. And I told you
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: when we were texting about it, I said, I feel
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: like this is very intentional and that it's going to
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: be basically like, hey, hit you right in the fields
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: for that nostalgia. Yeah, and I don't know how I
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: feel about the move overall. I like the logo, but
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the intention for the logo. I don't want to say
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: necessarily misleading, because I have no idea what this movie
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: is about. Yeah, but a lot of people have already
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: like cause you're gonna have those people that are like
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: super excited about this, and there's gonna be the people
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: that already hate it because it's not exactly what they
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: were expecting for the next story to be told in
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: the Star Wars universe. Right, That's just how things are
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: with fandoms unfortunately, especially with Star Wars in particular. And
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: here I like it. I like the logo. I just
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: hope that it doesn't want to be like, hey, look
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: at this new fancy thing that feels old and then
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: be completely you know, yeah, you.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Don't want to mislead fans. Yeah, so I hope that
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: the first trailer obviously you said like you said, it leaked,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: we have footage description that we're going to discuss and
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: gives Moto's reaction to it, because I trust Gizmoto's reaction
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: for what it looked like obviously leaked grainy footage doesn't
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: match the intent and everything.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm hopeful for the best, but I really hope
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: we're not misleading people with the logo. And I know
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: also we like most people probably aren't gonna look at
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: the logo. Very few people are gonna go, this is
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: what's gonna send me to the movie. This is what's
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: not gonna send me to the movie. It's just a
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: talking point really that we have because it released and everything. Yeah,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: what do you think about the plot synopsis of this?
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: So the plot synopsis it's still very vague.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: This did release in an official Star Wars dot com.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, we had a small discussion about it. You know.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: The one thing that is always like the thing that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: people are worried about, quote unquote is worried about is
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: when people will hear mysterious past, people immediately think of,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: oh crap, we're gonna get another Order sixty six survivor.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: We had our discussion that Order sixty six wouldn't necessarily
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: be on the table.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Gossling as a human is too young for to be
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: an Order sixty six survivor, because guys, when you're looking
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: at it, you want to think that we're sitting forty
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: a b y basically, because this is supposed to be
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: five years after the Rise of Skywalker. Rise of Skywalker
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: was thirty five ab y, so thirty five plus five
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: forty a b y. Then to get to Order sixty six,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: you have to go nineteen years backwards to get to
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: nineteen bby, which is where Revenge of This takes place.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: That puts that would put Kate Aubron at sixty nine
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: years old. And guys, I know Hollywood actors, they look
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: good for much longer than they used to. But still,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Ryan Goss, this character evokes forty five, fifty fifty five ish,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: not seventy years old.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't believe because that would put.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Him, That would put him at a baby, That would
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: put him being born at Revenge of the Sith, which
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: we know for a fact that Jedi took people or
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: took kids, not babies from their parents, so he would
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: have been two three years old. Yeah, when he was
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: taken again. That puts him later. Again does not make sense.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: And I hear you could go, oh, well, this is fantasy,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: this is science fiction. He could be but like, that
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: doesn't line up because.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: There was also with I talked about this in uh
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the Geek First discord, which I highly recommend you guys joined,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: because that is where all of our conversations go. Usually
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: after this, they shared this with The Geek First Guys,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: and Taylor had made the suggestion of, oh, well, I'm
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: not entirely sure that is necessarily a deal breaker because
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: of Jude Law's character in the Skeleton Crew show. Yep,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: that minor spoilers. By the way, minor spoilers for Skeleton Crew.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: We know that Jude Law's character was a forced user.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: That's the only thing that was confirmed.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: We don't exactly know that he's ordered sixty six. Yes,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: it's an assumption, but also Jude Law's character makes us
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: a little more sense. A the dude is balving, so
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: you can get away with a little more age in
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: that range. Just because of the way people think about it.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: B Mandovers is eleven aby, not forty ABY, so you're
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: looking at two different time periods there. It just doesn't
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: make sense. The other argument that I have is there
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: is precedent for humans aging appropriately according to Earth timelines
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: because of Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker. You can't tell
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: me if they said, oh, Luke Skywalker is sixty five
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: years old in this, so we're gonna make him look
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: like Brian Gossling's character, that they wouldn't have at least tried.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Do you do that? Yeah, exactly. And you know, another
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: thing is, well, let's let's go ahead and and move
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: on real quick. So that with the description I had said, okay,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: you know, it could mean this. The other theory that
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I've seen online is, well, if he is not directly
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: attached to the Jedi Ordity sixty six, possibly because like
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are immediately thinking, well, because he's
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the main character, he has to be a Jedi, or
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: he has to be a Force user, or he has
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to be blah blah blah, and so people are like, oh, well,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: if it's not him directly, maybe he had a master
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: somebody who was an Order sixty six survivor, and they
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: got in trouble, and so they've been in hiding for
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: so long, and now that is why he is now
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: this like scoundrel, is because he changed his identity type
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: of thing.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: But also, guys, the mysterious past could also be why
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: he picks up this kid in the middle of the galaxy,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: because his mysterious past could be that he's a deadbeat
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: and his kid comes to call, and so now all
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, we have to figure out who's the mom,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: and why is this kid all of a sudden shown up?
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Very classic tropy.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I never really thought about that, Like it's it's basically like, hey,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: his mysterious past is the fact that he's a baby
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: daddy to a kid Jedi m that would be probably.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Amy adams character is the mom. I think we all
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: that Amy Adam's character is the moms.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it has that been confirmed?
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's been confirmed.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's crazy. Okay, yeah, so so I think it's
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: safe to say that's probably what it is. But who knows.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Who knows. They may pull a fast one on us.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: To be completely honest, But outside of the synopsis, the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Ryan Gosling's character is going to be named Caid Caid Auburn.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Now you said you typed it here with a K?
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Is it with a K? Or is it with a C?
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: It's with a K?
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Huh Okay, it looks weird. Now you gonna lie it?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Does it? It's Star Wars, so you know it is
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: what it is. Yeah. The footage description by Gizmoto says
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: a young kid that being Flynn Gray's, starts slowly pulling
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: off a Starfighter. He slowly rubs his hand on it
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: like an old car. Cad comes in and tells him
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: not to touch it. The kid asked what kind of
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: starfighter it is, and Kate tells him it's some decommissioned
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Imperial ship, the fastest ship in the galaxy. Never heard
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: of it. The kid says, there's a reason for that,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: then says Kate. It then cuts to a long montage.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: We see someone riding a speeder bike over a swamp.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Kid stands with his back to us, his leather jacket,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: holding what looks like a massive gun or tool, and
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: he's working on a ship really quickly. I'm going to
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: share this because, like I said, this was modded into
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: a Jedi Survivor, and I.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Do believe that they actually released a picture of the jacket.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Did they release a picture of it? I couldn't find
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: that one. But whoever modeed this did a very good job. Katie.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Before we read the rest of it, I want to
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: ask you again. I did ask you when I sent
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you the text. I said, hey, do you have any
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: theories on Cade's jacket? Because looking at it specifically, when
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: you look at it, you're just like, oh, it's a
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: skull and crossbones. But when you look at it. It's
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: the rebellion symbol upside down with two blasters. Katie, you said,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I believe they are blasters. Somebody somebody said that it's
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the imperial or it's the it's the rebellion logo with
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: two blasters. It might be two bones, but that's what
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: everybody's reaction was on day one.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: Hang ontu Instagram. Well, the one you have in the
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: background looks like blasters, but that's again the mod not
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: necessarily the actual.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: What is your speculation on the symbolism or the reasoning
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: behind Caide making this his thing. What do you think?
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is the fan poster. They released a fan
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: poster with it.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: Ah, Okay, Okay.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: So it is blasters according to fan poster. I don't
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: think they would have released the fan poster if it
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: wasn't accurate, but I kind of dig it. I definitely
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: feel like the Mysterious Past leans more towards pirating because
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: it's a very traditional pirate logo, like the skull and
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: crossbones or in this case, logo and blasters. It could
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: have been someone very not happy with the way the
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Rebellion turned into the Republic and kind of made a
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: piracy gang to kind of fight that aspect. Yeah, definitely
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: still leans more priority, especially because we know pirates were
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: abundant in this timeframe.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I I am going down the same hyperspace lane
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: as you. I feel that this is just piracy because
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I feel like with just Star Wars as a whole,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: but like also the resurgence of like the love of
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: pirates for like the High Republic and getting into all this,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: I think just piracy is are really on the nose thing. Second,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I was thinking the exact same thing when you said,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: like not very happy with what the rebellion did to
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: turn to the New Republic. It kind of reminded me
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: of the story in from a certain point of view
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: that we had read of the guy who and like
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: this is the really fun thing about from a certain
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: point of view, but we learn about the guy who
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: was on the speeder bike on Indoor yep, right about
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: how he learned like that there was just a you know,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: he was caught in the crossfires of the war on
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: his own planet, and they wanted nothing to do with
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: the war, but because of what happened, he's like, yeah,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: screw those rebels. They you know, destroyed our homes, whether
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: it be on accident, or not, you know, and that's
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: why he, you know, join the Empire. I'm thinking that
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: quite possibly, and this is just my head canon, is
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: my like out in the left field type of theory.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Caid one of his parents was a part of the
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: rebellion and they died due to the war, and so
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: he's basically saying, f the Rebellion because they didn't do
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: anything to help my family. They just destroyed my family.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: And so he's a So.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: You're thinking he's the leader of the pirates or was
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: the leader at some point.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Either was or he's just like this is basically just
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: like instead of a pirate symbol, this is like a
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: F the Empire shirt like.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: This this would be a Republic shirt.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a F the Report public jacket that
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: he's wearing. Essentially not necessarily like he's bad, but he's
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: just saying like, F the Republic. So that's that's what
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I think that there is just something that soured him
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: on the Republic and so he went onto this mysterious path.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: So that's that's my head cannon head theory right now.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Son along with that, gonna finish this, uh this description.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: He's working on the ship, he's watching uh. He we
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: watched the pair ride a skiff over waves, which is
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: of course the uh the first official look you know
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: scene that we've been seeing so much of. More quick cuts,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: A droid flies a ship, a man jumps over a
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: gap in some kind of high tech room. The camera
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: then slowly follows the nose of a ship as the
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: title Star Wars Starfighter comes up. It then cuts to
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: a shot of Cade flying the ship with very pronounced
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: white lines around it. He's going very very fast. The
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: footage looked very classic Star Wars in all the right ways.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Everything was dusty, it was gritty, there was some attitude
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: to it, and this is still almost a year from release.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: That was part of that was the second part of
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Gizmoto's thoughts.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: That was just the thoughts that was on there.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so description thoughts. What were your immediate thoughts after
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: watching the video that I shared with you.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: I really dig it. It definitely evokes that race car
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: vibe that it's got, which is what I was kind
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: of hoping for, was something really focused on the piloting
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: aspects of the ship itself, and not necessarily because there's
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: so much new launch to piloting a ship and so
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: especially like leading in with like, oh, this is x
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: y Z ship. It's the fastest in the galaxy. I've
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: never heard of it. Oh, well, there's a reason for it.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Like I love that setup right there, and I'm super
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: excited to get to see more. Obviously, the description makes
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: it sound pretty good the thoughts that Gizmoto has. I
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: do trust Gizmoto's reps on this, so I do believe
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: like their interpretation on it. I'm not going to make
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: any more adjustments on what I think from a leaked
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: video and a description. I need to see an actual trailer.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: What about you, I I from what I saw, I
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: think it invokes Star Wars. I think, hey, this is
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: a Star Wars movie. I don't think you can watch
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: this and be like, oh, this is some random sci
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: fi story. This beliefs Star Wars, and so I'm like, cool, Like,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: this is what we are asking for. We're asking for
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: another Star Wars film. I need to see more. And
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: the reason why is Katie, me and you have both
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: said so far everything that we have seen from Sean
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: is we love, we enjoy those movies, but it is.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: It's very disheartening to see the lack of diversity in
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: the cast and go, and the lack of diversity in
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: the background aspect of the cast and go. Okay, this
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: is gonna be a movie that I'm gonna enjoy. We're
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: gonna review it, but it will take a lot to
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: really convince me that this was the right choice when
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: there's so many opportunities that you could have given people,
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: and very clearly some talented people that I feel like
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: I missed out here.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Yes, I feel the exact same way. And one of
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the big key things that I will also be looking
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: for is, yes, this bleed Star Wars. I also need
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: a sense of genre going into this, because you can
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: show me all the Star Wars stuff to convince me
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: that it's a Star Wars film. But if you want
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: to really surprise me as a moviegoer when I go
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: and see that movie and see a genuine genre film
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: within the Star Wars universe, that is also something that
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: we have been talking about and wanting for so long.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be looking at that aspect as well.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: So I need to see more. This is just this
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: is all the whip cream, This is the sprinkles, This
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: is the stuff that people go ooh and ah about
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I need to see more, and that's pretty much it
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: that we got from from Starfighter.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, here's a couple more things with interviews and stuff. Guys,
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: there's just not enough information really to delve into those aspects,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: so we're just gonna kind of leave those on the table.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: But there is more out there. Star Wars news Net
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: had an article that had the summary with the interview
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: with Sean Levy, so if you guys are interested in that,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: go check it out. But the next two topics are
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: both coming to Disney Plus on September second, which is
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: a Tuesday. I believe it's two weeks from Yeah, two
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: weeks from now. We have Mandalorian and Grogan, which is
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: releasing that day. But then we also have Lego Star
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Wars The Mandalorian, which is the latest Lego special and
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: it is also releasing on September second. But basically, it
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: is kind of a play on the three seasons of
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Mandalorian and really boiling it down into something that's a
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: little kid friendly and doing what a Lego special does
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: best it does. I could not find an official casting
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: list for this, but it does sound like Taikowa Titi
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: is reply is reprising I g eleven in the special,
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: and then Pelimoto's actress is also sounds the same.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, I did not have the time to watch the trailer.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: I'll be completely honest. I did not even know that
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: a trailer came out. Shoes Again. I opened the show
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: notes five minutes before the show when you were already
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: in the room, so we just started talking. I had
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: time a quick glance.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Either way, I just like putting too much.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Either way. These are two things that I will be
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: watching with my family, especially with Mara the Amberlin. I
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: was I was gonna say, you're probably gonna be watching
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: it with mar No because we had talked about how
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Mandalorian Grogu was not a movie that we were comfortable
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: with taking our kids to the theater versus watching it
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: at home, and that's what I was gonna bring up.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: But with the Lego Star Wars, me and Amberlin have
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: always sat down and watched these things. They're always fun.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: And although Amberlin has like watched The Mandalorian with me
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: from time to time, it doesn't really keep her attention
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: that I know a Lego movie will Yeah, so uh,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: that'll be really fun to watch with her. The next
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: part of the news was something that came in very
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: last minute, and at the end of D twenty three
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: was that some news on Mall season two. We are
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: it is confirmed that Mall season two is coming in
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven. We are getting it. No actual date,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: just twenty twenty seven.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: I would picture late twenty twenty seven with Ahsoka coming
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: where it is, and then Starfighter gives the opportunity for
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: a Star Wars celebration to showcase some things for it,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: while also leaving the promotion to a little bit later
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: to allow Starfighter hatb Yeah.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I was literally about to say, I do not think
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: we would get it same time as in like Star
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Wars Day like May only because I feel like if
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: that was the case, we would be a trailer right now.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: I do to make it.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the only thing that might change my
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: mind is if it appeared right after Ahsoka on like
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: calendars and everything. Because what we've heard through the grapevine
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: is that Marvel and Lucasfilm are both kind of going
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: back to the drawing board with Disney Plus and we'll
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: be cutting live shows down but then also bringing more
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: animation forward. So could we potentially see a second animation
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: show in the fall. If Mal appears in the spring.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, potentially, potentially, I think. But with this,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: I think it's it's very fun. We we talked about,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: you know, our opinions of mall season one.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: They weren't the best.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: They weren't the best, But I am always willing to
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: give Star Wars a second chance. I was gonna say,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: we have seen a bad show come into something we
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: absolutely adore bad Batch being single handedly like the one
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: eighty of Star Wars. And when I say the one
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: eighty of Star Wars, I mean not like literally like
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: not Star Wars, but I'm saying like, hey, we've seen
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: it go from really bad cameo show to holy crap.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: This story is literally like a key plot to the
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: Star Wars story moving forward. So yeah, we could see,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: you know, potentially Maul really step it up and you know,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: change the way we look at the story moving forward.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: For her, I'm gonna let you lead this next part
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: because you saw more of the interviews than I did.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, So this one, I I don't I don't know
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: how I feel about this because there are so many
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: people that are like, oh he said this, so it
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: really means this and I'm just like, guys.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Welcome to book talk.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Let's let's just ease our expectations. And then everybody's like, no,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: he said this, so it really means this. And if
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: he means that, it really means this. It's just like,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: oh my god. People like words mean things. Words words
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: mean things, and and that that is like the quote
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: of my life now that I have a child is like, hey,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: context and words matter, right, And so this next topic, guys,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: I know, guys, it was literally my Halloween costume this year.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: I was literally the missing Hunt for Ben Solo sign
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: billboard for Halloween, like I I am, I am wanting this.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: But this whole fiasco, guys, it started with Felony being
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: in an interview at D twenty three. Somebody asked him
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: what can you tell me about the hunt for Been Solo?
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: And his direct quote was as he waved his hand
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: with two fingers, and this is what has everybody freaking out,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: saying it's not here. You won't find it here. The
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: force is not with us in that regard. I love
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: the love you feel for it, which that last point
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: part of the quote, like I see it as a
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: genuine like, hey, you're really excited about that, and I
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: see that like he's acknowledging the excitement for it. Yeah,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: there's a little part of me that's like, Dave, you
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: are such an asshole, Like why would you say that,
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: you know type of thing. So people are freaking out.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: People are freaking out because all he did was a
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: hand gesture of this thing, right, and they're like, oh,
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: he's jet I mind tricking. It's not here means that
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: it is here him saying. And then people are like, oh,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: him saying it's not here really means that you're just
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: not gonna see it at D twenty three, which means
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: you're gonna see it at Star Wars celebration twenty twenty seven, guys, okay.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: And then what made matters even worse is that beIN
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: solo himself, Adam was said to have had some sort
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: of meeting with the Steven Soderberg, with of course, was
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: going to be the director of the Hunt for Pinsula,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: and so with that plus this, people's heads were melting
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: and they're like, Oh, we're gonna get an announcement.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be amazing.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: And people were taking literally Adam Driver's announced or it
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: wasn't even an announcement video. It was a basically like
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: saying a few words because he was casted in the
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: X Men movie that's coming in twenty twenty eight. He
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: was casted as mister Sinister, as a villain, and he's
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: in this giant room. It looks like a hangar of
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: some like a hangar bay of some sort, and he
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: has a black shirt and like some sort of like
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: cargo pants. Now, I have not seen Adam Driver in
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: quite some time, but in that video his hair is
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: slicked back the way it normally is and it gave
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: off small ponytail vibes. But I couldn't see the ponytail
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: in that video. There was literally a photo, a very
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: blurry photo, of him sitting at the table of some
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: sort of restaurant where he was going to be meeting
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: this director, and he had a hat on and people
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: were like, look, it's the exact same pants, it's the
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: exact same shirt. But his hair did not match the
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: vibe that it was giving in the hangars. So I'm
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: thinking these are completely different days, and everybody's like, this
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: is the exact same day. Oh my god, likes he's
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: talking leverage of hey, we got this, so because we
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: got this, like people were saying, oh, because he's in
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: the X Men movie, that one hundred percent means that
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: he's going to be in a new Star Wars movie.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Because people are saying, oh, he leveraged, Hey, if you
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: want me in this x Men movie, you have to
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: give me Star Wars.
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, guys, he doesn't care that much about
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Star Wars.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: Adam Driver does not have the money or the pool
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: to be negotiating full ass movies for one role. Yeah,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: not going to happen. As much as I would love
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: for it to happen, It's just not working like that.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: No, it's that.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: So to double down on this, there was an individual
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: and I shared this with you as well, this person
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: on Twitter by then handle uh Comrade Rodrigo said, here's
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: my exclusive and the reason why I believe this person
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: is he has been in the ends with a lot
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: of the other Scoopers on Twitter and a lot of
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: them are following him. So that tells me, Okay, this
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: person is recontable in some form or fashion, he says.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: And I've already done extensive reporting on Ben Solo and
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: knew about it months before Driver discussed it publicly. Uh.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: He said, Uh, anyway, this has nothing, absolutely nothing to
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: do with Hunt for Ben Sola, and that is of
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: course the meeting that he had Uh yeah with uh Soderbergh. Right,
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: is that how you I think it's Soderberg. Yeah. So
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: there's somebody within the business saying, hey, this is not
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Hunt for Ben Solo, which also means hey, if they're
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: still working together, I'm not gonna say this is never
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: say never, right. I truly believe and this is just
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: my instinctful feeling, and people can have whatever they want
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: to say. Because even Travis uh from geek Verse disagrees
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: with me on this. I feel like if we don't
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: get at least some sort of hint or tease that
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: this is actually a possibility in this calendar year, I
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: don't think it's happening. Travis believes that you have to
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: wait until at least celebration.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: I would agree. If you don't get anything at celebration,
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: that's when I would be like, Okay, we're do in
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: the parre. Because the other thing that I think is
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: a possibility is that Driver could have liked the script
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: for the Hunt of or Been Solo so much that
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: they might try to manipulate it into their own product. Yes,
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: where it's not IP related.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking, and or he liked the
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: script so much, saying hey, let's do something completely different
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: because I like your ideas. I like what you can write,
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: I like you know what you can do. So that's
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: the reason why I think the meeting actually happened. But
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: one of the reasons why I thought, hey, this can't
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: happen because of celebration is and marketing can just be
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: weird sometimes, so you know, something can be completely off
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: from this. But I'm thinking, hey, if you announce the
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: Hunt for Ben Solo immediately before Starfighter, because right, it
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: would be it would Starfighter come out first, or would
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: it be celebration. It's celebration in Starfighter.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: Right, celebrations in April.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So I felt that if you announce Ben Solo
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: before Starfighter, then you have a lot of people who
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing people can do this. But I was afraid of, like, oh,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: you're kind of putting the winds like towards this other
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: announcement right before you're releasing a Star Wars film.
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna argue with you there, because I would argue
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: that it's the perfect time to tease it. Because the
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: hunt for Ben's solo would take place after Starfighter. You
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: could very easily tease a post credit in Starfighter that
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: relates to it, like we've talked about, So you might
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: draw more people to the theater for Starfighter to get
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: the post credit sym Because we've heard that raised Jedi
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: Order is going to take part in Storefighter in some way,
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: shape or form. We know that there was lightsaber fights.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: We know Matt Smith and Yagot's characters both have lightsabers.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Very easy to see Ray being a part of this,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: so leading into it could very well possibly be.
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, That is very very true. I hope
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: I'm proven wrong. I hope I'm proven wrong. So, Katie,
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: the last topic, the very last topic season two.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, we almost said that at the same time.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: We almost did. That would have been uh so, Katie,
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: I told I told you this very right before we
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: actually started talking about topics. About this poster. I even
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: texted to you, I said, Hey, I don't know how
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: I feel about this poster, which is art is subjective.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: You know, well, you gonna share the poster.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: My sharing the poster.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: You share the poster because I was trying to just
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: grab it from the notes and be like, hey, you
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: could share it here, but like it's being all weird
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: and I would have to like go search for it.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: So if you could share, that would be absolutely wonderful.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: Close enough, Yes.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Yes, So this poster, I don't know how I feel
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: about it. I love this because it's not quite so.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: I've seen some people people just seemingly think that because
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: Marvel uses the floating heads so much that they invented
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: the floating head poster. I don't know if that's one
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: hundred percent true. I don't know, like I I, I
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: don't know what this is supposed to be invoking.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: It's no very Samurai esque. Ka story has always kind
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: of evoked, is that wandering Samurai with the villain creeping
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: in the background again floating head, but it's not like
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: terribly floating head. It's just kind of like he's lurking
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: in her shadow kind of thing. We've got, what I'm
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: assuming is the chimera in the center, which is like
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: hanging over Thron's like face. And I really dig that
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: because the Kimera has always been thrown ship and so
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: if that is the camera, that's kind of really cool
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: and then at the bottom, I love that Asoka is
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: really the central character on this. You don't really have
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: of any overwhelming personalities other than the villain in this,
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: which makes sense. I have had issues with posters that
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: or with shows that don't focus on the sole character
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: that the show is named after, because why would you
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: name it after that character?
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: Otherwise I would want to go ahead and say that
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: I am really, really, really happy, and people could say
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: boo on you for me saying this. I am so
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: glad Hayden Christensen is not on this post. Yes, well,
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: it has been confirmed.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: The trailer.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: We we are not going to I don't want to
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: like overshare it and get this podcast get taken down.
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: We're not going to share the trailer. It is out
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: there G twenty three ahsokas season two tailer. That's all
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: you got a certain.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going to talk about it.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but let we'll talk about it. But I am
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: glad that Ahsoka is the talking point here. We do
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: have like some red silhouettes it.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like a fight scene. At the bottom.
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: You've got with clearly job of the hut Ezra. You've
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: also got what looks like Hara and Chopper. I don't
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: know who the person holding the blaster is because that
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: doesn't look like se Beane's head.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: I think it's because it's I think it's her blasters.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: Those are her blasters.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: It doesn't look like her head, and it doesn't look
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: like her head with a helmet on it.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: It's it's okay, So I think what they are trying
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: to do, which doesn't make any sense because her hairstyle
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: has completely changed, but I think it's trying to invoke
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: her bowl cut from the show Rebels. Yeah, I could
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: see that, but again Ahsoca season one, she had very
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: long hair and then it went short. Yeah, so I
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: think that is what they're trying to do because I
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: saw the blaster and I immediately thought, oh, that's Sabine.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: That was the only person I thought it could be.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: But it just doesn't look like it.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: That's where my big issues. Super. You very clearly have
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: Balin over here. You can't see my mouse, but he's
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: in the far right of the image, and I think
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: that's the chimera up top. Again, I question who this
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: other person on the right holding of the lightsabers?
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, so Balen is right in front of
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: Ezra and Shin is the one with Kpe.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: You think that Shin because the way and I think
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: I got I think Balen's on the right is because
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: they picture Bayalen with.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: Always they always put him with the hood. But I
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: think it is. I think it's Shin with with her
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: hood because I think the I have to I'll have
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: to double check, but I'm pretty sure the one time
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: or maybe even just twice in the trailer that she
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: is there she has her hood. I'll have to double
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: watch it again or double.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: There's a part where she's fighting uh Professor hu Yang
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: uh and she's got her hood down in that one.
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, so yeah, uh.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: Anyways, very excited for this. It's coming January twentieth, which
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: is a Wednesday, So I don't know if that necessarily
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: means a three am showing or if it's going to
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: eventually switch to Tuesday. Just not sure.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: So so far, we've had Wednesday shows. We have we
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: talked about like the fact that like has I think
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: we have is it Wednesday's animated shows and then Tuesday
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: live action shows.
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: That's what the trend has been. But for the last
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: live action show we had which was I think, and
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: or they did they said it was Monday night, okay,
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: And so with the fact that they're saying, oh, this
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: is January twentieth, which is a Wednesday, that doesn't give
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: me hope.
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So let's move on to the actual trailer, because
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: this one I do have up because I do have
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: to mention one of the first things on this trailer,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: and I actually have to pause it and look up
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: when I'm about to reference because I did see somebody
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: else reference it. Let me see if I can spell
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: it correctly. Because we have talked about it only once
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: in this entire podcast. We've talked about it once before.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: I can't remember the reference of when we talked about it.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: But I love how even in the even in the Wikipedia,
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: the Star Wars fans to site it already has the uh,
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: the reference that I'm talking about in the trailer, and
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: it has the reference that I'm about to talk about
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: what we've already talked about.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: So I don't know what you're talking about.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm bringing I'm bringing them up right now. Hold on,
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. So I'm
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: gonna bring this photo up and I'm gonna share it
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: right now we're sharing the screen a triple bladed lightsaber.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: We have referenced this photo literally once, have we?
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, when have we referenced this?
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, we've referenced it once, and I'm now starting to
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: remember it wasn't live, so it wasn't live. But we
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: were talking about so we were trying to talk about, Hey,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: what are some topics that we could talk about on
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: some of the random days in the year. No, we
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: were talking about our favorite lightsaber hilts or styles or
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: something about lightsaber specifically or something along those lines. And
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: we had referenced this. I had referenced it, and like, oh,
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: I think this would be really fun to talk about
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: because of specifically this photo that I've never had any
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: reference from. I've seen this photo so many times, so
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: many times, and I have no idea where it's from, right,
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: I have no idea where this is from. But this
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: weekend we got to see some random dude in this
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: trailer pull out a double bladed lightsaber and then he
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: moves his hilt to reveal a third blade. Katie, when
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: I saw this, I immediately brought up the other, the other,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: the other lightsaber picture, and I was like, they're doing
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: the thing. Oh my gosh, And that's what a lot
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: of people were also saying. For one, I have no
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: idea who this is. This is a flashback, yes, of
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: a Clone Wars scene because we see a young Ahsoka
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: and we see a young Anakin Skywalker.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: My only it looks like Ariana green Blat is returning
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: for that by the way.
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, now I will say she does look a
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: little bit older, so like it's a little wonky timeline wise,
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: but you know, here there, I still love it. My
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: immediate thought process when when seeing this random dude with
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: the heavy eyeliner was pong Krell. Pong Krell a racist bastard,
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: was a Jedi who seemingly fell to the dark side
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: and wanted to work with Dooku and all of that.
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: Right, yep, so real quick. The picture that you shared
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: was created by Mark rec rec Cup as part of
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: his injury in the magazine's Design and Alien competition for
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: Star Wars. Galaxy Magazine in nineteen ninety five invited fans
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: to submit their original creature designs based on the original
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: Star Wars trilogy. Right Ubis Thorn Black War Dragon one
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: first place and was subsequently published in the magazine. That's correct.
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: It's not even that.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: It's not even I was gonna say, it's not even Legends.
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: Cannon is literally just a concept of an idea that's amazing.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: But this character, when I see it in the trailer,
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, really cool lightsaber. And then the
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: fight actually took place, and then I had to stop,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, wait a second, he doesn't have red lightsabers.
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: It is green and blue. What is going on?
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: Well, and it goes back. It goes back to what
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: Vernestra went through when modifying her lightsaber, about how modifying
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: your lightsaber and going beyond the strict one blade lightsaber
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: can lead to dark side habits because of the way
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: that you're allowing things to flow differently and not sticking
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: to structure.
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: You have been listening to your young adult high Republic
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: novels just like me. Look at that.
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: I actually haven't even gotten that far. I've only finished
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: Into the Dark.
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: That's hilarious. That's hilarious because it's literally the very next book.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: I know it's an out of the status because I
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: literally listened to that part yesterday. So yeah, no, it's
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: it's true. And I love that. I love whether it
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: be coincidence or not. I love it because honestly, with
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: stuff with Star Wars like it can be coincidence. But
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: also like we know that these people have a giant
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Star Wars Bible and so like this could very much
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: work in their like planning and stuff.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: So and I will be curious to see because it's
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: not in the trailer long enough to see if this
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: is just like, Okay, he happens to have like a
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: two bladed lightsaber that then kind of split into one
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: lightsaber and a duel phased lightsaber or the dual ended lightsaber,
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: or if it's really like he's using a middle guard,
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: because I'm curious, does he how the fighting mechanics would
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: work with that?
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: It almost reminds me of the Ronan. The Ronan he
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: like kind of had the same gimmick in his blade style.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: Uh So, like, I'm very curious on how all that's
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: gonna work. But that's just the intro to the trailer.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: We get some some words from Anakin, which, by the way,
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: I think it's absolutely hilarious how so many people are
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: like man Anakin is spending all this time with his
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: old padawan, and there is his son struggling to like
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: actually like bring up the Jedi and like make it
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: new and everything else, and he's about to make so
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: many mistakes with Ben and you're still anything to help him.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: Like, but it also it also just might be that
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: it takes more energy for him to go work with
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 2: it with Luke versus working with Ahsoka because he already
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: has that connection with Ahsoka and that bond.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: I I am curious if we will ever learn because
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: again there is how long has it been since Legacy
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: has come out? Is it safe to talk about spoilers?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: Is it not safe?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: I think it's safe to talk about spoils.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, three weeks, all right, Okay, spoilers for Star Wars
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: legacy novel that just recently came out. We know that
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: there's a cameo with against Skywalker. Thank god I've been
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: able to say that. So like with the with the
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: knowledge of Anakin seeing all of our heroine heroes and
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: just leaving his son out to dry, like it's I'm
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: curious to know if we will ever get an explanation.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: But we also just don't know that Anakin didn't visit
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: Luke more frequently. The only visit that we know that
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: he had is in the one piece through Luke Skywalker
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: that we had was Shadow of the Cis.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And because of our conversation there, which by
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: the way, please go listen to our Legacy review, I
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: feel like we have a really genuine conversation about this there.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: But we did discuss that there is a huge possibility
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: that once you there is there is tiny whinmy stuff
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: dealing with being actually a part of the force. Like
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: because of so wordings that Luke Skywalker has as a
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: Force ghost, it implies that you are anywhere and everywhere
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: all at once. So I would be curious if we
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: ever even if we get like why Okay, I feel
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: like they have done this, but I need confirmation or
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: at least hey, uh Lucasfilm Publishing, Uh del ray, like everybody,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: like welcome to our podcast. Could we get the Star
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: Wars Bible publicated please? Like encyclopag like a lot.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's what Star Wars timelines tried to be.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, like like like Encyclopedia. Yes, but I need it
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: to be a little bit more in depth. I need
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: there to be like in the nitty gritty like I
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: I I want to be in I want to be
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: the fly on the wall when they're writing the Bible.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: That's what I want, like honestly, but like I either way,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: either way, I am excited for this. I everybody has
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: wanted more Anakin one thing that we haven't seen that
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: I still believe could very possibly happen, but it will
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: not be shown in the trailers. I think we might
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: see a small cameo of Obi Wan. What do you think.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: With it being snow Knoby, I could see it knowing
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: the context of the at least one flashback, I could
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: see it, Yeah, because you all know that snow was
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Obi Wan's favorite place to be. I don't imagine that
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: because I felt like with the flashback that we got
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: in Ahsoka season one, I felt like those flashbacks I
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: think it was just one actually, but I felt like
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: that one it had too much possibility for crossing over
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: the episodic timelines. And so with knowing that this is
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: a light taber fight that did not happen on screen
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: that we never got anything about, I feel like it's
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: more plausible to have Oh we want appear and it
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: doesn't create as much havoc on the timeline.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: That is the benefit of having the Clone Wars guy,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: uh run the show. But the next part is like
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: the first thing that I brought up to you because
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: we had talked about the Snow Clone Wars flashbacks, because
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: we saw the costumes on Friday or on Thursday, yes,
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: and then this came out late Friday night. So the
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: first thing that I brought up to you was Thrown
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: looks better.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: So yeah, so so that has been Actually I thought
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Apparently threads
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: and Twitter and Instagram all have the same consensus. They
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: are like, hey, they fixed Thrown.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: And it's still not great, but he looks more life.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: He has more life to him.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, he looks like a better live
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: action version of himself. Yeah, there was.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: I still consider him too light skinned, Like I think
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: they went the opposite way of what they needed to go,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: Like Thrown is a little more dark.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: So that was the thing because we I don't remember
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: if we said it specifically, but when you look at
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: a because I'm pretty sure I sent it to you, Yeah,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: there was a like side by side of or above
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: and below photo of thron in season one versus now,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: and it very well just might be the lighting, right.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: It might be because what we see in season two is,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: or at least in the trailer, is he is on
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: a ship in space close to a sun or a
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: star and you see a very bright yellow on his
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: face that is making him look a little like a
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: little shocky kind.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: Of But they fluffed out his hair and just try
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: to make him look chiss like. I appreciate it in
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: Obi wan Kenobi where we got the grain and quistor
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: and his face is more round than it was in
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: like the prequel trilogy with Revenge of the Sith, like
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: that species. Yeah, I appreciate still the fact that, Okay,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: we don't want this guy going around with a bunch
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: of prosthetics because he has to fight. In this case,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: I almost think going a little more human with the
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: shape of his face leans a little more beneficial to
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: the character's appearance. I still think based on this, based
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: on the trailer, they went to light, but again that
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: could be lighting. I just wish, like the chists are
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: dark skinned, there's no reason that he has this light
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: and other than they don't want to paint that much
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: makeup on him.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: Well, and that's that's what I'm like wondering like, so
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: there's movie magic, right, Yeah. I wonder what would happen
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: if you tempted too, like.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: Would be out of the blue?
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, would it be saturate or desaturate
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: his skin?
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: To the issue that you could potentially run into is
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: the expense with that and then potentially causing issues with
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: the rest of the way the show looks. It could
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 2: very well be that it's a live action Well.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what I mean, Like, you're one hundred
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: percent right, because realistically, and this is me just knowing
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: the knowledge of video editing, the very small amount of
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: video editing that I even do, what you would potentially
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: have to do is green screen every single scene that
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: thron is in, map out his skin, saturate it, and
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: then lay that on top of every single piece of
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: film or of course scenes that he is in. And
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: that could be very time consuming for one and very
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: very expensive. And I just think ultimately it may not
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: look good because of the extensive work that they would
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: have to do to almost make it perfect.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, And that's where I feel like at least they
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: made a little bit of improvements, especially with the hair.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: The hair and the lifeless aspects of large Michelson like
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: appearance in the season one just did not look good
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: at all.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: I will say, like he essentially in the two photos
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: that I shared with you, he is essentially making the
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: same face. I see more emotion in season two than
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: I do in season one.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: And I think that's ultimately what they want, because even his.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: Player is also not greased back on the sides to
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: give him that appearance of the elongated scalp.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's that's the other thing also that I like,
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: literally you just saying it. I noticed they did. I
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: feel like they also with the prosthetics. I think this
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: is prosthetics because I don't think his forehead does this.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the V that you see in rebels.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: So so they made it very prominent in season one.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: In season two, they made it more to where it
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: complements his already.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: The facial emotions that he's having. Yes, and so like
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: the the V looks like it's like actually like eyebrow
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 2: like I.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: Guess, it looks like muscles in the skin, looks like
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: there is like actual like creases and stuff rather than
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: just like this prominent like V thing on his forehead,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: which I think does help I think it helps with
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: the portraying of Michelson trying to evoke some sort of emotion.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: It technically takes away from what the character is portrayed as,
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: which I know a lot of people will be like, oh, well,
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: technically blah bla blah blah blahlah like those people you know,
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: boo on them. I do think that overall, although he
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: may not be canonically the same color as a Chiss,
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: I think this version will ultimately will be better than season.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: And I think if that's what they spent three years on,
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: which I don't think they did, is improving the prosthetics.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: We already know that Ariana Greenblatt's Montrels look better, Rosaro
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: Dawson's Montrels look better. If they improved Thron's prosthetics, if
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: they did other things to improve the way things move
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: in the way that we can get better action sequences,
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: better emotions out of our characters that are aliens on
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: screen and don't have cgi associated to it. I think
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: that will be beneficial long term if we can make
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 2: that happen.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: More scenes within the trail.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: Night Sisters and a Night castor ball.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: I love it. Yes, Yes, So this is something that
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: I also shared with you before even the trailer was released,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: because I was just kind of looking at the photos
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: of the Anakin Snow costume and everything else, and I
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: zoomed in in the back and I saw the Night Sisters.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: I was like, ooh, like, what is this like? And
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: and we had we had already seen some leaked concept
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: art of this. Yeah, this is a little bit just
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: more refined and more like official. We did end up
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: getting to see those Night Sisters in the actual trailer.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: Now I'm trying to find the actual wording because there
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: was a like Tea's Last celebration of what Filoni was saying, like, hey,
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: this is what you can expect from a Soca season
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: two and it was coming up like right before D
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: twenty three came out, and the wording oh Ahsoka season
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: two brings the wars in Star Wars, like this is
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: going to be an all out war. Yeah, from what
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: we can tell, Thron is no holds bar saying hey,
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: I'm taking over the galaxy, like this is not how
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: things should be run. This is what Palpatine wanted, and
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: so this is what we're going to do. Like that
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: is just what is in his mindset since day one.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: It's always been like that. So he is coming into
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: the Star Wars galaxy with that mindset and he will
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: throw whatever thermal detonator he needs to to do that.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: And that's what we see in this trailer. We are
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: seeing space fights. We are seeing awesome, awesome blaster fights.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: This is where we see the Night Sisters. We see
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: oh my gosh, Night Sister planet, Dathamir. We see Dathamir.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: Uh what else do we see? We see Bayleen.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, in the first look at Balen.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: The snow, there is not a clear look at him yet.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got his hood up. He's in the snow.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: That's about it. But he's got the bushy beard, so
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 2: they cut the same beard.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: I am very very excited to see how Oh my gosh,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm forgetting his name?
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: Is it Roy.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: Bayleen? Oh my god, not Bacon Bayleen.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, I found it by looking up that.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: I am very very excited to see his portrayal as Balen.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to kill it. I think it's
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be absolutely amazing. We see a a reunion of
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: Java and of Zeb.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: They knew they had to give this to us because.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: I like it. Is so it is literally half a
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: second long. It is half a second, like you see, uh,
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: who do you see? First you see Chopper, and then
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: a split second later you see Zeb and Ezra hug
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: it out, and then you see Ezra again. So it's
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: a split second. But even for that split second, it
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: literally warmed my heart. I'm so excited to see them
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: because you know, you know, as soon as they get
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: into a dogfight, it is going to be classic Zeb
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: and Ezra like getting angry at each other but joking
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: around and like you just know Ezra is gonna get
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: on Zeb's nerves somehow, and it's.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 2: Just and that's that's the super funny thing is like
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: they're like literally getting ready to go out. It looks
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: like into a dogfight at that point because Zeb's in
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: his flight suit and Ezra's in his like pilot jacket.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: But then the next shot he's in h he's piloting
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: and a wing out of a hangar like, so they're
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: like about to go into it.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, another point, uh, and then I will give the
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: floor to you. Actually two, but the second one can
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: can wait until later because there has been a like
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: although it's a badass moment, I think it's really fun.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: There has been a little bit of like eye rollinginess
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: that I have seen with Hwang turning into General Grievous.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: Why how so you would not like to have fight?
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: Well, people are saying like, why would you do this?
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, for one, he's why. He knows every
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: single fighting style, so and he.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: Saw General Grievous do it, so why wouldn't he make
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: the modification to do it himself?
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: That is my thought process.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 2: Also, he was the defender of all of these young
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 2: wings who went to find their crystal and only went
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: with Padawans, and so he had to know how to
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: defend them. Just because he didn't do it in the
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 2: one Clone Wars episode he was in doesn't mean he
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: couldn't do it. He was damaged.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: I love how you just like take that one jab
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: at him. It's like he could have done here, by
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: the way, but he was damaged. But my my genuine
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: thought process of this, and that's like the fourth time
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: I've said that in this whole all right.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: Also, he could have decided at that point that he
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 2: needed to make the modifications where he could use lightsabers
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: at that point, and that could have been the whole
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 2: point of like, why he's never done it before is
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: because he got attacked at that point.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: But I genuinely believe that he at one point saw
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: a hollow of General Grievous or read some sort of
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: assessment or mission briefing about General Grievous and said, huh, interesting,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: I want to see how that might work yep, and
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: then made the modification. I think that makes the most sense. Genuinely, yep.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't see there being any problem with
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: this whatsoever. But there has been a little bit of like, oh, so,
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: just because he's adroid, he needs to fight like General Grievs,
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: And I'm just like, that's not entirely true, because we've
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: seen droids with light like practice droids do all sorts
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: of different things, and so why couldn't they Because literally
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: the knowledge is out there of General Grievs copy paste
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: into a droid's memory base.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: It's not General grievous because he put four arms on
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: his back and did not split his arms in two.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: So also true, not completely. He made his own exactly exactly. Uh,
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: But I do think that's fun. I do. I genuinely
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: think that's fun.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: I'm excited to hear David Tennant in a lightsaber. Fai.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: That's gonna be a blast.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a lot of fun. I
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: want to.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: Uh so what was the second thing you had? Because
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: basically we've talked about everything.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm going to actually have to share my
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: entire window to prove this real quick. Okay, so let
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: me grab this uh Jedi Survivor, and then.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 3: Let me grab a image real quick.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: Where to go? Where do you go? My gosh open
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: new tab Ooh yeah, okay, so I'm going to share
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: my entire window hopefully. Oh you know why because this
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: is my sideways facing. Uh oh, you know what, what
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: if I just do this? There we go? So okay,
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: the top is Jedi Survivor or the Jedi series. That
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: glyph on the floor is a safe point you go.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: You go to these little glip They're all over the
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: place on every world that you are traveling to, and
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: you were able to save your progress. Now, the glyphs
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: technically have like a small piece of like actual story
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: like planet wise. I can't remember which planet it is,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: but because of that, in the trailer down below are
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: the exact same glyphs. So there's a possibility that we're

  Speaker 1: going to be visiting one of the planets that's in
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: the Jedi Survivor series.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know about visiting one of the planets because
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's still on the extragalactic planet.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: If it is, that even makes it more interesting because
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure the planet that I'm thinking of and
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: the species is like very very very very old in
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: the way that they explained it. I'll I didn't come prepared.
