Star Wars: The Bad Batch Disney + Animated Show

I like Omega. I hope Hot Toys do a figure of her.

This was a good one. Crosshair is on a low now. I wonder if this sets up a redemption later on or an even worse fall for him.

Little Ani would sell better than her

 

[pixletwin]

I’d buy him too.

Does Cody join Cf 99…

Does Cody join Cf 99…

Spoiler

We don't know yet, but if he isn't dead as of the end of the episode (likely) then he is probably a free agent and will probably be running into CF99 or Rex.

 

[slynger]

Very solid episode. Great character focus and the ending couldn’t have been better.

Im thinking he may join up with Rex. Who knows what infamy those two might get up to.

These clones are giving up everything. The only home they have ever known, and their ersatz families. They had status. A lot!!! Of status. Ppl like Rex and Cody were Very Big Deals.

Spoiler

And still they flee for the hills. If!!!!!! That b.... Rampart didnt have him killed first.

 

[chrisstbh]

Cody isn’t around in Rebels is all I’ll say.

I decided to finish the first and second episode. Wow Omega is a dumb greedy little brat. Nearly getting Echo and Tec, plus some old dude, killed for some loot.

As I've said before, I struggle to get as invested in the animated shows as the live action stuff.
The upside to this, is I don't get upset or feel much of anything if I don't like them.
I couldn't get on with that "Visions" series, but just stopped watching after a couple of episodes and didn't give it much more thought.
Wish I could do that with the live action stuff. Still annoyed about BoBF and Kenobi...
Anyway, watched all 3 of these so far. First 2 were pretty meh. But to be fair "pretty meh" is how I view most of this animated stuff.
They weren't terrible but the opening to a new season could do with being a bit better than "meh" but, oh well, not a disaster.
3rd episode was much stronger. Wasn't expecting an entire episode without Bad Batch appearing but enjoyed the whole focus being on Crosshair.
Loved all his incredible shooting. I think the BB really miss his skill in the squad.
Seeing his lonely life, how he's treated by his superiors. Seem to building up to some sort of redemption.

Kid acts like a kid, still having to learn life lessons. Water is also wet (although technically it isn't).

Omega really is a Mary Sue. First minute of the show and already performing better than the bad batch destroying crabs perfectly as they miss every shot.

Make your mind up

 

[All Might]

You can be a Mary Sue and still make mistakes.

 

[Dave_W]

Mmmmm, I'm not sure about that. There's a difference between being competent but not perfect all the time because you're still figuring things out and being unrealistically free of weaknesses and lacking meaningful character flaws, which is what a Mary Sue is, in which case...

The Ninth Jedi is one of the best pieces of Star Wars content out there, watch it.

I dunno why people watch kids shows that include kids then complain about the kids being kids . There's these wonderful things called character arcs and development. Nobody liked Ahsoka at first and she grew into one of the best Star Wars characters ever imo, she made mistakes and learned from them and gained maturity in doing so. All kids are annoying.

Because the desire to consume, consume, consume is so powerful you have to watch it, even when it's clearly not your cup of tea.

It's like eating a box of chocolates and complaining about how awful the coffee ones were and that they shouldn't even bother with them... even though you ate them all because you're a greedy **** and you'll eat them out of the next box as well.

Like I get not liking the show but there was a whole first season to decide if you liked it or not, why come back?

???????

This isn't "greed," its that she knows that if they don't succeed in getting what Cid wants that her brothers will not get paid. She is trying to help them. This isn't grabbing some loot in WoW or something.

I get not liking a character - Leia basically ruined "Kenobi" for me, you want to talk about stupid little brats, we got a real thing with that one - but claiming Omega is intent on running around grabbing loot-boxes as if this were "Barbie's Temple Raid Adventures Online" is not really all that fair to the character, as intrusive as she can be.
