Roy Focker Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 It looks "cheap." Like the Inquisitors look like cosplayers. Characters designed for cartoons first don't always translate well in real life. You don't want to show them in scenes where there's too much light. The cinematographer either didn't have enough time or the budget. It looks like it was meant for TV. I guess that's because it was. I see this trailer and think if only they invested more money. Quote
Tking22 Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 Looks awesome! I'm excited, the Inquisitors look fantastic! Another excellent transition to live-action, like with Ahsoka and Cad Bane, they look great IMO, better then expected. The thing I'm worried about is a possible Vader v Obi-wan duel. I know a lot of people want and expect it, I don't. I've seen a lot of discussion in the last few weeks about Vader's line to Obi-Wan in Episode IV on the Death Star I, how there's possibly more grey area then most people expected, that there could, technically, be a confrontation after Episode III and before Episode IV if you squint hard enough, but to me it would just be a bit too retconny. I'll be happy if Obi-Wan and Vader just briefly sense each other, probably when Obi-Wan has to draw his lightsaber to deal with Inquisitors, a full blown duel seems too forced even in this modern Disney age of Star Wars retcons.

Yes, agreed and goes toward why it should have been a film. Lucas should have sold Star Wars to WB instead of Disney. Quote
hutch Posted May 5, 2022 Posted May 5, 2022 Warner Brothers? The same people who gave us Space Jam 2 and all the wonderful DCEU movies? Yep. I’m sure that would have gone well. Quote

We’re only making fun of a few cosplay looking characters, then it would be the cast of every show. Quote
hutch Posted May 6, 2022 Posted May 6, 2022 Yeah Star Wars on the CW would have been amazing. Totally top notch. Quote
Podtastic Posted May 6, 2022 Posted May 6, 2022 Why is there no Republic Commando series? I'd watch that. Quote
Mog Posted May 8, 2022 Posted May 8, 2022 (edited) So Google’s algorithm linked me this interesting tidbit about ROTJ: https://www.sfgate.com/streaming/amp/What-happened-to-Endor-from-Star-Wars-17145105.php The idea that some restaurant’s patio deck was made from the Ewok village or a tree that some Imperial Speeder Bike crashed into is kinda amusing.

azrael Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 Nice of them to incorporate the X-Wing/TIE Fighter/X-Wing vs TIE Fighter/Squadrons power allocation. Now flip it and show a TIE pilot's perspective. You won't need to animate faces. Quote

Roy Focker Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 Watched it last night. The action was great I just wished they used actual people for the pilots. Quote
azrael Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 Interesting watch list from Disney+ UK... The Satine-arcs and the episodes where Obi-wan faked his death. Quote
azrael Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Genevieve O’Reilly (Mon Mothma) is in this series. Guess we're that close to the Senate. Quote
Big s Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 That farting ship at the start kinda messes with the tone Quote
