But that's not Captain Marvel.

Who are you?

I'm not a Skrull! I'm not a Skrull!

Kinda weird that we are in an era where SW content is in the “eh, that was ok, at least it wasn’t as bad as BOBF or Kenobi” category for me. I recently saw ESB with a live orchestra and that still moved me.

It didn't used to be called 'content', that's one thing that's changed.

I saw ROTJ with a live orchestra 2 years ago, was great. Although they missed the Ewok helmet drum solo…

After seeing a few more clips from this, it dawned on me what Filoni is channeling here. Gonna date myself, but here goes!

It's the Filoni Xena-verse! A bunch of gals palling around in tacky costumes permanently smirking during crazed, senseless, badly choreographed action scenes. Witchy, magik zombie fun and half-baked quests with occasional walk-throughs by eunuch-males that the women are all smarter than. A "lead" character that steps to the side to let the others "shine". Did I miss anything?

BUT...with NONE of the charm or self-awareness "in on the joke" vibe of those old wacked-out shows.

And rumor has it a second season is coming?!?

Hayden's super casual but powerful stance with his arms just hanging at his sides is so badass.

jye's all "I only need to know one thing. Is...she...legal..."

That finished fight scene with Hayden Christensen as Anakin and Ariana Greenblatt Colón as young Ahsoka jump top 4:53

Wonder if the poor girl is ever gonna get a role that doesn't require painting her entire body and gluing crap to her face.

She already had plenty of roles that didn't require her wearing heavy makeup like that.

I initially thought this was some date in Star Wars lore.

Was she not in Barbie? I thought she was. Biggest movie of the year. I'm not worried for her.

 

[Otomofan]

Hardly "worried" for her. Just noticed how lazy and unimaginative Hollywood is. Once an actor is known as the "go-to" for a certain kind of role, those lazy *******s just do it over and over.

"Hey we need a kid to glue appliances to and color purple...call young Gamora/young Ahsoka again!"

"Hey we need a blind Asian martial artist....get Donnie Yen on the phone again!"

"Hey we need a girl to get burned to death in the final act of a movie...get the chick that did in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood AND Scream 5!!"

 

[Khev]

"Hey we need to ruin a comic book character, call Jared Leto!"

 

[Mandible]

" Hey, we need to prioritize everything other than originality and quality scripts - particularly anything that might be deemed "challenging" for delicate modern audiences that just want to watch pretty lights and believe everything is awesome."

“we need a black guy. Call Samuel L Jackson”

Apparently there's a running change on Hasbro's Baylon and Shin figures to give them orange sabers instead of the red ones they were originally issued with.

I didn't watch the show, so I was just curious....why? Was it ever explained why these two have orange lightsabers??

I don't think it was explained on screen but Baylon and Shin are clearly not Jedi but they're not Sith either. I guess the orange lightsaber is meant to show that.
This first season didn't really explore much about who Baylan and Shin are.
Their lightsabers are apparently a very old design.
Baylan tells Shin at one point that he trained her to be more than a Jedi.
Thrawn refers him to Baylan as a General so that confirms what was pretty obvious, he was a general in the Clone Wars.
Baylan tells Ahsoka that he knew Anakin.
Baylan is looking for something in the new galaxy that will "break the cycle" or something like that.
That's about all we learn about Baylan and Shin in the show.
