Now I'm kinda annoyed they had Mando take off his helmet last ep. It would have been so much more impactful if they saved it for only this episode.

“surely Cara Dune, of all people, would’ve recognized him and gotten even a little excited. I mean, the guy blew up the first Death Star, which blew up Alderaan. I half expected a “FUCK YEAH!” from her when he reveals himself.”

I’m betting we are going to have scenes of Vader with his mask off so that Hayden can do some proper acting.

Nowhere can I recall Christina ever being made aware that Leti was ever pregnant.

There was no indication that Christina ever knew that Leti was pregnant. That’s part of the reason why she was conflicted about perhaps killing her only remaining family for nothing.

What exactly was the point of anything Christina was going to accomplish again?

Makes me wonder if the “woman with the robot arm” who gave Atticus the copy of “Lovecraft Country” was actually future Diana.

My impression of the Christina/Ruby relationship is that it is a weird version of intersectionality.

Best of all, she encourages Ji-Ah to embrace self-love and acceptance. “It’s okay to be different,” Young-Ja assures Ji-Ah.

That’s why I’m saying that the live action interpretation is acceptable rather than excellent. Dawson is great and all but I agree: Ashoka is softer both in voice and demeanor.

I can’t help but be amused that, instead of declaring the animated interpretation of the definitive live action characterization to be acceptable, I’m declaring that the live action interpretation of the definitive animated characterization to be acceptable.

Either “5cream” or “Scream5" (Screams). Anything other title is an incorrect choice.

Swear to God, Trumpers playing Rage Against the Machine to protest are like Nazis playing Hava Nagila to celebrate. 

Luke grew up well after the Purge in the Outer Rim as a sheltered farm boy. It’s reasonable for him not to have heard of Jedi or the Force.

Just my instinct for pendantry kicking in. 😜

There were years of anti-Jedi propaganda following the Empire’s ascension. The touting of Jedi wouldn’t necessarily be there first thing to do, especially since there was only one at the time. It’s not really well known how well known Jedi were outside the Core.

Assuming that the Empire didn't purge virtually every mention of Jedi when they took over.

Not quite. 😜

Also, since Mandalorians have a history with Jedi sorcerers (the Child's people), there’s a good chance that another covert may have actionable lore to work from.

A friend of mine once suggested that the primary reason Liv Tyler's character is in "Armageddon" is to assure the audience that Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck's characters are not in fact feuding gay lovers.
