What did Ashoka end up doing with the Magistrate ? Chucked in one of those prison torture things I’d expect.
Was she some sort of force user too or ‘merely’ yet another awesome female fighter ?
This show has truckloads....Cara, the armourer, Bo Katan, Bo Katans Mando mate, Ashoka....hardcore feminists must be furious there’s nothing to whinge about in Mando.....
Read back. They are still finding problems. Armour with room for breasts for example.
That Twitter post got absolutely murdered online, some great replies to it - the best from other women.
Dawson is currently going through a attempted cancellation as well, some from Lucasarts employees as well. All over a discredited lawsuit.
And obviously Gina is copping it because she has opinions that differ from groupthink.
The irony is that the targets here are giving them what they have always wanted, strong popular female characters. Each one of Katee, Gina and Rosario has a character that is not shoe-horned into the plot and a character independant enough they they all likely to get their own series.
The left like to eat their own.
We could take this to the SW Universe politics thread if there was one but why the last comment?
Sure, idiots like that are often left leaning in their politics but they aren't representative. Just call them what they are. Idiots.If you can show me even one right wing Twitter troll/idiot trying to get someone on Star Wars cancelled then sure. At the moment they all seem to be leftist idiots.
so its only cancel culture you dislike? the right, apparently we're just grouping everyone together now, just straight abuses people for being different...but that fine
Afraid he missed the point entirely.
All about labelling @Kirwan . It's what causes half the shifights around here. -

shit I would love to see that and yeah, Stan would work
they could even do it as a holo communication, not in real life, might explain away less than perfect CGI and be less of a sin than recasting

It's funny, I can't imagine anyone other than Mark Hamill as Luke but I was perfectly happy with Ewen McGregor as Obi Wan ( Alec Guinness was excellent as well of course )

That’s because Alec was an old fart. Someone playing a younger version is generally ok, but not if we’ve already seen a younger version. Han Solo is a good example (what a stooped idea for a SW film btw. Nobody wanted the Adventures of Young Han). Same if they were going to do a young Leia again.

Well, if it was a considerably better film it might have worked !

Maybe, but it was a film nobody was calling for. Was even more odd that Harrison Ford was only 34 when SW was filmed and they’d just killed the character off.

Well there's talk of a Cassian Andor series.....who you might say ?
The south american sounding bloke who helped Jyn steal the Death Star plans in Rogue one. Well one thing is for sure, with his complete and utter lack of any sort of ability other than shooting down a few storm troopers ( and who in SW land can't do that ? ) you can bet he'll get more beat downs than Mando does.
but fuck me, the premise for this show sounds dull as fuck.

He was very average. Tiny fücker as well. About as imposing as a hobbit.
I’ve always had a massive horn for Wedge. A series about the pilots would be cool. There were a heap of books on this.
Otherwise Knights of the Old Republic could be a goldmine of cool ideas.

you might not be enough of a nerd, I saw a lot of call for a Han movie, from right back in the 80's, he was easily the most popular character in the OT. More than that they set up the legend of the kessel run in the OT...and then delivered it in the movie
how good the actual movie is is a different issue, I liked it, the actor was too "smooth"...not rough enough for meI was interested in the Cassian series, the description I saw was smore of a spy thriller, hes not a great fighter, more sneaking trying to subvert the empire, more jack ryan than han solo

There would certainly have been interest in the early days and then with Ford coming back. But did anyone really want this with another actor in 2018 or whenever it was? Or rather, there are a shitload of other things fans would prefer to see on screen that this.

@Rancid-Schnitzel yeah, I think a solo movie was number one of the list (maybe toss up between that and obiwan) or spin offs people wanted as far as I saw

Yeah that might work come to think of it. Mando alone has given us loads of overpowered hand to hand fighters ( as did Rogue One ).....someone more human might be a nice change

@MN5 Rogue one kind of set up a couple of different directions, its had its sneaky aspects too, the empire right on their heels
I have in my head Mando is gun slinging out on the outer rim and Cassion is sneaking through the underworld of Coruscant, maybe the both share the odd "heist" episode

Rogue One he implied he was an assassin and his actions were more espionage than kick ass. It would be a totally different feel to Mando as you say.
Whatever they do Mando has set the bar very high. No new projects should go through without Filone giving the green light first

@canefan Ahsoka hinting Thrawn could be its own series
this is nine or ten years after we saw them in Rebels, I want to know what they've been doing...they've set so much up
another thing, the "Ghost" was in the big fleet in Rise of Skywalker, so its still being flown 20 whatever years later, still by the same crew?
