Star Wars: The Bad Batch Disney + Animated Show

[jaztermareal]

The goggles reminded me of The Mouth of Sauron and the mithril shirt as a token of Frodo’s death.

Verdict: Tech isn’t dead.

no ones ever really gone....


as per rules of tv: if you do not see a body, they ain't dead

I haven't watched this show since a few episodes of Season 1; been checking out the last 3 or so episodes of this season following the buzz here. It's actually been pretty good, particularly the final two in that the action was actually pretty tense and the animation looked good.

Because I'm not invested in the characters

Spoiler

Tech's fall didn't hit me one way or the other, and I also don't think he's dead because Star Wars. He fell into an abyss and wasn't even cut in half first or vaporized, come on. Somehow he'll return.

And can anyone who's more familiar with the show explain

Spoiler

why they bring a child with them on dangerous combat missions?

She’s older than them.

There were times earlier in the show where they didn’t really take her, but she’s more experienced and capable now than she was before.

She has the same DNA and capability as them, she is still a Jango clone after all.

...and she's a walking Maguffin.

Wouldn’t be Star Wars without those.

They should leave her on the ship. As it is, she has significant psychological trauma to deal with at a very young age.

She wont stay though, they don’t follow orders and she learned that from them

 

[BoosterGold06]

I mean if anyone calculated the odds of falling from a great height while on a mission and put a parachute in his suit...

 

[chrisstbh]

I don’t want him to be dead but I hope he is, sure it’s Star Wars and Sci-Fantasy but people need to die and stay dead sometimes.

Now that I think of them, the clones in Star Wars were all child soldiers.

And basically slaves too.

I just do not, DO NOT understand exactly how we are supposed to hang off this cliff for the next year+!!! This aint right. It is cruel and unusual punishment.

The whole thing echoed The Empire Strikes Back too.

Spoiler

The shot where they load Omega to the ship was similar to Han being loaded into Boba's ship, and as the ship took off, the shot of Hunter was similar to Leia's.

[jaztermareal]

guessing clones will be turned into phase 0 dark troopers next season

 

[ScoutingForToys]

Now all episodes are out, I'll be binge watching the best ones.

Binged the whole thing over 2 nights, so stayed out of this thread - overall, impressed with the writing/characters. Kudos to Filoni & co. Still uneasy about some stuff I think of as "kiddie" but like with Clone Wars and Rebels there's some heavy themes here too.

IMO completely rewatchable like a lot of Clone Wars and Rebels.

Well....Rebels SPOILER

Spoiler

I'd shamelessly welcome Kanan Jarrus back, that was a bummer.

Look, there's been laughs in the past about where Palp's Dementor audience came from, who they were, and did they just sit around sort of watching him bob about on that crane thing. Now we know that the whole audience was Disney stockholders, who are the TRUE ESSENCE of the Dark Side. Because of their unfathomable evil, we can regularly expect extended wait times, just to keep the stock price up. Iger is gonna make D+ profitable, no matter who suffers.
