Wouldn't Dathomir be home base for the Nightsisters since that's where they evolved? I suppose that links to your other statement...

Yes, I believe Morgan or Baylan mentioned this at one point. I’ll check wookiepedia to see if that’s correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantastic_four Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Forget everything I said about Dathomirians. Reading the Wookipedia entry on them shows they're a mix of humans and some species called Zabrak from another planet. Didn't realize Filoni had made the back story for Darth Maul's species so complex. I saw the Clone Wars episodes where they first showed the Nightsisters, but I don't recall them mentioning in those episodes that they were a mix of humans and Zabraks.

He’s definitely built quite a huge galaxy and provided a lot of backstory to characters we had met previously. You can tell he did it out of pure love for Star Wars. It’s nice to see he’s getting the opportunity to bring more of this to life and to the masses. I really hope he gets Feige money and title at some point. The guy really cares about this property.

awakeintheashes Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Are those dogtags he’s wearing as chainmail? Also, any guesses as to what is in the Spoiler coffins/crates that are being moved onto the ship the last couple episodes? Thrawn going to build an army with zombie troopers by stopping by Dathomir?

fantastic_four Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 There was a scene in Obi-Wan Kenobi where we saw the Sith Inquisitors had a vault of dead Jedi. I can't remember if they ever hinted where they were planning to go with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 Okay. Part 5 is my favorite so far. That engagement between Anakin and Ahsoka was so deep and intense. And demonstrating the conflict of his soul. And those flashes of Darth Vader. I like pie, bentbryan, troydivision1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 So one more episode (#8). I 'm having fun with this. And I have no connection to Rebels or Clone Wars. bentbryan and awakeintheashes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awakeintheashes Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 With all Star Wars shows we won’t know until we know, but there have been some sneaky Easter Eggs and some interesting theories floating around…. not sure how Baylan knows all the info and people he knows. Some have also theorized that the “something calling to” Baylan and the power the Nightsisters are fleeing is Abeloth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get the full impact, you really have to watch all of Clone Wars. There are some filler episodes but well worth it. Rex is easily my favorite non force user in Star Wars. awakeintheashes and jsilverjanet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantastic_four Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) The main reason I haven't seen Rebels yet is I'm working my way in order through the cartoons and am only most of the way through Clone Wars season 5. Been watching them with my kids for the past 3 years, and it's often tough to get them to watch Clone Wars instead of all the other cartoons they want to see.

I tried that and then just plowed through the episodes after I put them to bed. A lot less distractions, too. I still plan to watch it with my son when he wants to watch it.

Bosco685 Posted September 29, 2023 Author Share Posted September 29, 2023 Ahsoka Anakin just name dropped a major Star Wars character who was supposed to appear in the prequels Quote In what could be his final live-action appearance, Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker left messages for his one-time Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. In Ahsoka episode 7, he namechecks a handful of villains she should be wary of in the then-upcoming war: Count Dooku, General Grievous, and Asajj Ventress. Ventress, an assassin trained by Dooku in the ways of the Dark Side, is a hugely complex Star Wars character. A constant thorn in the side of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin, she longed to be considered a Sith, but was eventually betrayed by her master and later embraced her Nightsister past. Ventress then sided with the forces of good, sacrificing herself to save her lover Quinlan Vos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantastic_four Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I'm quite familiar with Ventress because she's heavily featured in the Clone Wars cartoon, but she was supposed to be in the prequels? What happened to her appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantastic_four Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Found an article outlining Ventress' original role in the prequels. Wow, she was the original villain in Attack of the Clones instead of Dooku! https://www.cbr.com/star-wars-ventress-attack-clones-origin-sith-lord/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
