<v Speaker 3>Anda' Rosey night.

0:00:35.760 --> 0:00:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Well that this is kind of Howord does.

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:44.760
<v Speaker 3>Where we don't even visual right now, like how he's

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 3>doing in this show.

0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:48.720
<v Speaker 2>Colleagues and pop culture. Coming to you from my heart

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 2>ware bring you three episode.

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:57.240
<v Speaker 3>In today's episode, we are recapping episodes nine and ten

0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:01.880
<v Speaker 3>Dark Ball shadow Lord, which is actually just called Mall

0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:06.320
<v Speaker 3>shadow Lord Ours. And the first episode is episode nine

0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 3>Strange Allies, and the second episode, episode ten, the Dark Law.

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:15.280
<v Speaker 3>So be where there's gonna be lots of spoilers, and

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.959
<v Speaker 3>of course Joelle super producer will be here to discuss

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 3>all the more thoughts. So let's get into it. Death Maul,

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Death Maul Episode nine, Strange Allies. Dryden Voss via a hologram. Wow,

0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 3>remember him, He's there, And.

0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:44.200
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I feel like we could have dialed

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 2>in the Dryden Voss voice a little bit more.

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's a note.

0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 3>Small note for Mal shadow Lord. He will personally provide

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 3>Mao with an escape from Jane X in exchange for

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 3>that happened, though he then needs More to promise that

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 3>he will kill the current crimson. This is so funny

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 3>to me too, because I'm just like, you're gonna do

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 3>something for More first, and then you're gonna ask him

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 3>to do something. It seems like the wrong idea, my guy,

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 3>but sure, then he's gonna kill the current crimson. Dawn

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 3>Barson great wonderful. So in a broken down building somewhere,

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:24.680
<v Speaker 3>two boots laws in, Riley and Devon are all hiding

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 3>out and Maowel caused to Devon in her sleep Devil.

0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 3>She wakes up and she's like ah, and she explains

0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:39.440
<v Speaker 3>her dream to Darky and Darky's like, well, maybe he's

0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 3>trying to show you something. Sounds like somebody's implanted this

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.360
<v Speaker 3>place in your brain for a reason. And it's great

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 3>timing because Marek and the Eleven Brothers show up the

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 3>two inquisitors and they are ready to capture some force users.

0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Luckily they're just outside boom happens. They escape. You don't

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 3>see it, it happened. Luckily they make a quick escape.

0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.120
<v Speaker 3>More is right there and he's like, hey, I'm I'm

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 3>just gonna help you guys, ragtag group of allies that

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 3>we are force users cops, Jedi sith who cares we're

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 3>just friends altogether, and they're like, what else are we

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 3>gonna do? So they go and they're like, yes, Lawson

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 3>is leading them across the Empire perimeter, and Devin kind

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:19.360
<v Speaker 3>of has to reveal to Daky, like, yeah, maybe me

0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 3>and Maul do have a connection. Maybe it happened when

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 3>you told me to get arrested because I was hungry

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.200
<v Speaker 3>enough to steal an apple. Maybe that's when it happened.

0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.360
<v Speaker 3>Maure's little pro droid. We get to see him flying

0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 3>around and he's spy guy. No spy guy. He jams

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 3>some Stormtrooper colms and we get to see more take

0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 3>down a bunch of stormtroopers. As Devin covers him, Riley

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 3>just shoots a stormtrooper riding away in the back. Let

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.040
<v Speaker 3>me tell you my father like son, he just stuns

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 3>up and just shoots him.

0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, let me tell you something nasty. The amount of

0:03:56.160 --> 0:04:01.000
<v Speaker 2>loss of life in these two episodes is. I think

0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:05.360
<v Speaker 2>it's up there with anything like not counting the explosion

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.440
<v Speaker 2>of the Death Star, right, yeah, up there with any

0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:11.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of like firefight scene we've ever seen.

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 3>It starts, dude, Lawson kills so many people. He is

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 3>just shooting so many stormtroopers, like easily kills one hundred people.

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.120
<v Speaker 3>So Daddy looks at his son and he's like, Oh,

0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:25.159
<v Speaker 3>I'm so glad you shot that guy who was driving

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.640
<v Speaker 3>away on his speed up. So proud of you. And

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.600
<v Speaker 3>then they work their way through this large power plant

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 3>which is kind of half empty, and the crew manages

0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 3>to find a way out despite the fact that Lawson

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:38.960
<v Speaker 3>is clearly scheming on a double cross the whole time,

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 3>like he's acting like they're gonna double cross him, like

0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 3>more than his crew are gonna doublecross him, but really,

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:46.880
<v Speaker 3>like Lawson, you're the one thinking about it, just not

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 3>being so suspicious. Two Boots is immediately like anything he

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 3>sees that is against some kind of regulation, he's like,

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna report it. And then he's like, oh, I

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.960
<v Speaker 3>can't do that anymore. I'm not really a snitchpot in

0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 3>the same way, And that comes up very importantly when

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.159
<v Speaker 3>they have to work together to get across a river

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 3>of toxic waste. I bet you didn't see that coming.

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 3>In the finale of More Shadow Lord, that is in

0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 3>the basement of the power plant, two Boats wants to

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 3>snitch about it. He can't, it's not a priority, and

0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:19.039
<v Speaker 3>just in time for them to be stuck at the

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 3>toxic waste pool, Marreck and the eleventh Brother show up,

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:28.160
<v Speaker 3>leading to a pretty brutal fight that sees more essentially

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:32.200
<v Speaker 3>lose like his entire crew. If you wanted to know

0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 3>anything about them, rip to all. I was other than Spybot,

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 3>who I was like, good, you were like get that

0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 3>fut I was.

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 2>It was sad the way he went master and died,

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, man, like we saw multiple members of the gang,

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:58.799
<v Speaker 2>including you know, like the final the last few marriage

0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 2>Mangalorian culture, also the other Za twin, the other Zebich

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>brother take like fifteen shots to the chest and go down.

0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:15.360
<v Speaker 3>At and then he took like fifteen stormtroopers with him

0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:20.480
<v Speaker 3>into the lava question mark or the toxic waste I guess. Yeah,

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:24.799
<v Speaker 3>that was very crazy. And we also got some wild

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 3>devon action here as she kind of force fly jumps

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:32.440
<v Speaker 3>layer style across the toxic waste using these abandoned skiffs.

0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:36.280
<v Speaker 3>We will then get a really epic double lightsaber fight

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 3>where we get a double double sided lightsaber brawl with

0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:44.480
<v Speaker 3>more facing down with Marrock, and it is actually extremely

0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 3>sick and very well choreographed, and More earns Devin's loyalty

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 3>here in what will clearly be a very important moment

0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:57.159
<v Speaker 3>by essentially allowing Daky to escape while he fights the inquisitive. Yes,

0:06:57.520 --> 0:07:01.919
<v Speaker 3>whole does manage to make it across, but that is

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.880
<v Speaker 3>despite an insane hail Mary play by Marek, who just

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 3>like Lashes, is fucking like light save in quiz a

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 3>light saber like a fucking frisbee to try and knock More,

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 3>and instead he destroys the skiff. More manages to make

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 3>it across.

0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Not very Jedi of Daki right to do, to be

0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:25.080
<v Speaker 2>the one who flees and not be the one who

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 2>stops everybody Like I was a little bit like very interesting, Daki.

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Now is the tame that you decided to.

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 3>A cow wad?

0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 2>But I'll just say this is the best, these two episodes.

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:43.560
<v Speaker 2>It's the greatest action we've ever seen in Star Wars Animated.

0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.840
<v Speaker 3>I think these two it's really great stuff. I do

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:51.560
<v Speaker 3>love the three people with double sided sabers. We've never

0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 3>seen that before. It is very enticing to me. I

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:59.440
<v Speaker 3>do enjoy it. I do not love the episodes as

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.440
<v Speaker 3>much as that, but I do think that they are

0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:06.680
<v Speaker 3>a fun end to this show, though, I will say

0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:09.040
<v Speaker 3>I also do think from some of the pacing choices

0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:12.119
<v Speaker 3>and like the way things are explained, I do think again,

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.440
<v Speaker 3>this is a show for like a much younger audience.

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Patient.

0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't mean that as like, no, no, ye, kids.

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't mean that as like, well, I'm an adult.

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 3>I just mean I think it's for younger kids.

0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 2>I agree with its written, and we'll talk about this

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.440
<v Speaker 2>more in the conversation, but let me just say, like

0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:31.560
<v Speaker 2>even kids would benefit from better pacing in this show.

0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:34.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh that's it, absolutely, yeah, yeah, yeah, kids deserve This.

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 2>Should have been sequenced differently, that's all.

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So more and and you know, Lawson to Boots,

0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 3>Riley and Devon, who and who are the survivors and Daky.

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:51.040
<v Speaker 3>They are going through the kind of misty forests of Janex,

0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 3>which look very akin to Dagabar, and then something.

0:08:55.160 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 4>Emerges, tall, dark, covered in multi colored buttons. It's Toffveda,

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 4>a bomb bom.

0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:14.439
<v Speaker 2>My only question was whether it was gonna be him,

0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:19.200
<v Speaker 2>big Daddy Big Daddy Vader or the Emperor himself. But

0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I guess the Emperor.

0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.160
<v Speaker 3>Still, I think it could be I think it could

0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 3>be sitious, but also like we've seen him a lot.

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if fans would have gotten as excited.

0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 3>This definitely feels delegating.

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Now this is a.

0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Fan service moment for sure. Like we've always wondered as kids,

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:35.400
<v Speaker 3>like who would win in a fight? Obviously that gets

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.880
<v Speaker 3>answered heartily in the next episode, which we will be

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.439
<v Speaker 3>talking about. Wants to be a back from.

0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>We're Back.

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 3>We're back, guy, it's happening. Do you feel like you're

0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:03.640
<v Speaker 3>ten years old? Do you feel like you're in the

0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:06.959
<v Speaker 3>playground asking your friend Vader us there is more? Who

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.520
<v Speaker 3>would win? It's that battle the bow we have wanted

0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 3>to see since we were kids. Well exactly, I'll tell

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:21.040
<v Speaker 3>you something. If you were worried that Darth Vader was

0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 3>not the fearsome foe that once gave us nightmares as children,

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:30.199
<v Speaker 3>don't be worried because this era is chunky, angry, murder

0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:34.120
<v Speaker 3>a kid. He's a big boy with big, chunky arms

0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 3>and big chunky legs. This is horror movie Vader. He

0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:38.520
<v Speaker 3>is killing so many.

0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 2>He's doing the thing you know where he puts his

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 2>hand close to the ground to say like too small.

0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.199
<v Speaker 2>It's just they don't have the size to deal with

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 2>the evader of this magnitude.

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 5>They look I was like, okay, wow, this new age

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.960
<v Speaker 5>six foot seven exactly what is happening here? I know?

0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 3>And this suit is like skin top, skin tight. This

0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:03.640
<v Speaker 3>is Daddy Vader for sure. They've got him for sure.

0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>He's out there.

0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.439
<v Speaker 3>He's just commanding the force. He's just wiping out in

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:11.839
<v Speaker 3>diret battalions of people in front of him. I love them.

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 3>He is extremely opie and for some reason all he

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.360
<v Speaker 3>wants to just fucking kill Darth Moore. He's like, fuck

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 3>this guy. Somehow, this guy is to blame for Padme's.

0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:25.120
<v Speaker 2>Dad because it's and that's the Empire, that's Emperor. He's

0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, that's yeah, exactly, that's the Emperor's ex He

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:30.199
<v Speaker 2>does not like.

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 5>The Emperor, very challenged that mark and feel it before

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 5>he actually knows what's happening, He's like, who is this guy?

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>You're fucking with the Emperor, aren't you? I knows instinct.

0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Which I do love because like he also Mariah Carey

0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:47.000
<v Speaker 3>like I don't know hers doth Vader too. He's like,

0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:49.160
<v Speaker 3>who are you bitch? Like what the fuck is going

0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:52.559
<v Speaker 3>on here? And I gotta say Darth Moore's getting absolutely

0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:55.120
<v Speaker 3>eaten up here, Like he does not have a chance.

0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:58.839
<v Speaker 3>He cannot take Darth Vader. If we were wondering as kids,

0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.040
<v Speaker 3>who would take who? Guess what's the one who got

0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:03.200
<v Speaker 3>chopped in half? Who's still going to get chopped in half?

0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 5>In this situation, Anakin was like nine the first time

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 5>all died like this?

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what I mean? This is like he's

0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 3>worked a lot now. And also do you okay, so

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 3>do you think when he's fighting him, do you think

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:21.000
<v Speaker 3>Anakin is feeling anger and fury inside remembering that he

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.800
<v Speaker 3>killed quite gone Gin, Like do you think he has

0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 3>that knowledge? Or do you think this is pure Vader rage?

0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 5>I like the legends cannon of the suit is painful

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:35.480
<v Speaker 5>for Anakin to wear, and that every like second of

0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.920
<v Speaker 5>his life is just like agony and terror over at

0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 5>what he's done, and like just constantly like redoubling down

0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.600
<v Speaker 5>sort of in a what a Firecracker we're resumed as

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 5>a zombie and forced to fight for Homelanders situation. Yeah,

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:52.080
<v Speaker 5>uh so, yeah, I just think I think that guy's

0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:55.000
<v Speaker 5>just rage now. I think I don't even think it

0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 5>gets to a personal level.

0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:57.520
<v Speaker 3>For it's probably.

0:12:58.800 --> 0:12:59.559
<v Speaker 1>I think that's right.

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 2>I think that's yeah. I think I think it's so.

0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:05.679
<v Speaker 2>It's also so early in the Vader run, like he's

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:10.360
<v Speaker 2>so he's just baby Vader. He's baby Vader, and his

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:13.520
<v Speaker 2>rage is just like bubbling over like at everything. I

0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:15.400
<v Speaker 2>don't even think that there is a point to it

0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:16.440
<v Speaker 2>or a focus to it.

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:20.800
<v Speaker 3>It's I think a recognition somewhere deep inside that would

0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:23.000
<v Speaker 3>add more rage. But I think you guys are right.

0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he like remembers who this is from

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:30.600
<v Speaker 3>a story he was told. Okay, so Maul is getting

0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 3>like torn the fuck up. It's not going well. He's

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.320
<v Speaker 3>having to shake his little leg every so often, he's

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:38.720
<v Speaker 3>getting chopped in the leg. Like it's going badly. He

0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 3>escapes with Daky and Devon and the three of them

0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 3>have to work. I did love this moment, like this

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.560
<v Speaker 3>is the kind of shit I need to see. Show

0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:50.520
<v Speaker 3>me what the force costs, show me how powerful one

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:54.440
<v Speaker 3>person is because they have to do so little compared

0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:56.600
<v Speaker 3>to what other people have to do. So there's this

0:13:56.640 --> 0:14:00.679
<v Speaker 3>great moment where Devon, Ducky and more are unning away

0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 3>and they're trying to pull down these rocks on Vader

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:05.320
<v Speaker 3>and all three of them have to team up to

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 3>pull down the rocks, and as Vader walks through, he

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:12.720
<v Speaker 3>just clenches his fist yeah, and then just gets rid

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:14.319
<v Speaker 3>of all the rocks. He does so like what the

0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.600
<v Speaker 3>three of them can do, Like he can do it

0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:18.520
<v Speaker 3>with no effort.

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 2>I love the Vader like Italian man gesture.

0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:31.840
<v Speaker 3>Yes the rock. He's so good and uh. While all

0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:34.560
<v Speaker 3>of that is going on, Dryden Voss is calling Vario

0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.840
<v Speaker 3>and he's like, hey, how's Maudling? Is he ready to

0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:40.240
<v Speaker 3>be picked up? Is that gonna go fine? I have

0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:43.280
<v Speaker 3>to say, look, Varrio, he's a little snitch, right, he's

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:46.120
<v Speaker 3>a little troublemaker. He's a double crosser, he's a heel turner.

0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 3>But he actually does try his best in this moment

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:53.560
<v Speaker 3>to warn Voss. He's like, hey, so something's going down here,

0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:57.400
<v Speaker 3>maybe don't come here. And Voss is like, I don't know.

0:14:57.920 --> 0:15:00.960
<v Speaker 3>Busy and extremely gay, I don't know this version of

0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:05.000
<v Speaker 3>forces that they're doing. But it's like this family. He's like, Darling, please,

0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm too busy. Like I can't. He's like, please, Darling,

0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.040
<v Speaker 3>I can't listen to this. I can't listen to just

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:12.480
<v Speaker 3>stories about the empire Darling no, and he puts down

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.160
<v Speaker 3>the phone and he's just like, I can't do it.

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:15.600
<v Speaker 3>It's like, what the fuck is going on?

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:19.360
<v Speaker 2>Listen to the math the two of them, Varrio and

0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Voss on the phone together. It's like this weird battling

0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:29.440
<v Speaker 2>of archetypical like character executions that.

0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 3>Is extremely George Lucas in the nineties very much. Sarah

0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:39.080
<v Speaker 3>More and Dakie try to, like Jedi Sith manipulate Devin,

0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:41.720
<v Speaker 3>and they're like like, oh, you should do what the

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Siths say, you should be racheful. No, you should do

0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:47.280
<v Speaker 3>what the Jedi say, be calm, while they're also trying

0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:49.800
<v Speaker 3>to work out who this armored madman with the sabers

0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.240
<v Speaker 3>who's hunting them down. I feel like Daki, as an

0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 3>elder Jedi, you should probably have heard fucking rumors about

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.920
<v Speaker 3>this or something or felt something in the force of

0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 3>disturbance in the Force, but sure all comes clean about

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 3>being trained by Sidius to Devon. Daki sends Devon ahead

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 3>and is like, I'm gonna help more and they're kind

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.520
<v Speaker 3>of arguing over philosophy in another iconic moment that I

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:14.680
<v Speaker 3>have to say makes this show all worth it for me.

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:18.520
<v Speaker 3>They're arguing about Jedi cif philosophy, and Vader just punches

0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 3>through the wall like the fucking cool a man boom.

0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 3>Hell yeah, scary ass shit, it's actually really scary. Vader

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.240
<v Speaker 3>Devin hunts for a way out. She ends up on

0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:34.160
<v Speaker 3>this kind of like Legend of the Hidden Temple s yes,

0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Scrianna Jones type situation, and she has to face down

0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 3>the Inquisitors as Daki and Moore face down Vader. And

0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:49.400
<v Speaker 3>then those two separate fights, which are really again really fun,

0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:53.160
<v Speaker 3>really well choreographed, they merge into a fight of three,

0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:58.080
<v Speaker 3>you know, the Jedi Sith versus the Inquisitors. It is

0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:04.560
<v Speaker 3>really really crazy. We get multiple double sided lightsabers. It's

0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.480
<v Speaker 3>very fun, and you're like, this is great. I love

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:09.280
<v Speaker 3>Star Wars. And then you're like, what if we went

0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:12.439
<v Speaker 3>to a cop who was just shooting like fifty people. Hey,

0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 3>there we are laws and kills like a ton of

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:17.760
<v Speaker 3>stormtroopers in the Janet's Jungle. He is on fire. I

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.120
<v Speaker 3>have not seen him be this good at being a cop.

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.080
<v Speaker 3>This is clearly what he's good at. Like, he is

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.560
<v Speaker 3>not good at solving a crime, but he can shoot

0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:29.440
<v Speaker 3>a man in the chest quick time. And he's shooting them.

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 3>He kills a ton of them. They try and meet

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 3>the gang and catch Ross's transport. Two Boots comes up

0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:38.080
<v Speaker 3>with a new plan. He's fully into the rebellion. Now

0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:40.520
<v Speaker 3>he's like, fuck it, I can't snitch anymore. What do

0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 3>I get dopamine from? Now? He gets it from blowing

0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:47.720
<v Speaker 3>up the Stormtroopers shuttle. I love this insane plan. So

0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:49.880
<v Speaker 3>they can somehow escape. How are they gonna do it? Well,

0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 3>Varrio will be a distraction because that's always what he is,

0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 3>and the laws in family will team up to do

0:17:56.040 --> 0:18:00.160
<v Speaker 3>some more extra judicial stormtrooper killing. So two Boots kill

0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:04.439
<v Speaker 3>blows up the Stormtrooper shuttle with this absolutely sick like

0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:08.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't know space berzooka more and Daki managed to

0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:12.960
<v Speaker 3>stave off Vader, and it all seems to have been

0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:15.879
<v Speaker 3>worth it because Voss's shit begins to arrive and you think, Okay,

0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:20.800
<v Speaker 3>maybe this insane plan has happened. But unfortunately, well fortunately

0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 3>maybe depending on which side you see it. Unfortunately, two

0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:27.600
<v Speaker 3>bad dads do not make it, as both Daki and

0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:32.040
<v Speaker 3>Lawson are way laid. This is crazy. Daki is fucking

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:35.760
<v Speaker 3>killed by Vader in an absolutely insane sequence where he

0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 3>is essentially whipping Daki with his lightsaber. It's one of

0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:43.919
<v Speaker 3>the craziest things I've ever seen. He does it like

0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:47.560
<v Speaker 3>five times, and then just in the perfect timing, as

0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 3>Devon walks through the trees to find her master, she's

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.800
<v Speaker 3>been distracted by his pay. In a disturbance in the Force,

0:18:56.240 --> 0:19:02.720
<v Speaker 3>she sees Vader stab him right through the heart, cementing

0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:11.560
<v Speaker 3>obviously her path to the dark side alongside Shadowy Grace Side.

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 3>I do believe side. It does feel like they're setting

0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.240
<v Speaker 3>her up to have a two sided lightsaber, one side blue,

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:19.480
<v Speaker 3>one side red from what we see here, so I'm

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:24.359
<v Speaker 3>very into that. Alas laws and sacrifices himself for his

0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 3>son in two Boots, seemingly dying getting left behind on

0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 3>the planet, but we never see a body, so I

0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:31.840
<v Speaker 3>presume he comes back.

0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.760
<v Speaker 2>He disappears into the mists.

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.359
<v Speaker 3>He's got the gun, like I'm assuming that he's going

0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:42.920
<v Speaker 3>to come back. In season two, Devin's anger at Daki's

0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:45.679
<v Speaker 3>death finally encourages her to team up with More and

0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 3>use her rage to defeat the Inquisitors. And this is

0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:51.560
<v Speaker 3>perfect for More, who now has a willing apprentice, but

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.720
<v Speaker 3>also like now he also has two boots and Riley

0:19:56.640 --> 0:20:00.000
<v Speaker 3>on this fucking transport. Voss and Moore make an uneasy

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:03.760
<v Speaker 3>act to both keep their sides of the plans, and

0:20:03.840 --> 0:20:06.880
<v Speaker 3>Devin looks at the red labor lightsaber that Mole had

0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:09.480
<v Speaker 3>previously split with her during one of the fights and

0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:14.760
<v Speaker 3>grips it thinking about her new Sith path, and she says, Okay,

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm ready.

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:22.560
<v Speaker 2>Let's take a break and then we'll be right back

0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:23.640
<v Speaker 2>to talk about these epworks.

0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>How we're back. I will readter it again.

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.280
<v Speaker 2>I thought this in terms of action, it was just

0:20:45.400 --> 0:20:49.720
<v Speaker 2>like absolutely amazing, I will say. And you could just

0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:52.280
<v Speaker 2>through the recap you could feel it. I mean there's

0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:55.680
<v Speaker 2>like fifty Stormtroopers that die in this episode, dude, in

0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 2>the brutal like getting sliced in half and stuff.

0:20:59.400 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 1>You know what.

0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 3>It also remind me of as well that we haven't

0:21:01.800 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 3>seen for a long time. I feel like we haven't

0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 3>seen this many lightsabers in a fight since the Mace

0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:11.520
<v Speaker 3>windw Jedi kind of battle and the prequels.

0:21:11.840 --> 0:21:14.520
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say it up, kids, it was bright

0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 1>as hell. It was.

0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:18.640
<v Speaker 3>We used to have like fifty lightsabers at time battling

0:21:18.680 --> 0:21:22.199
<v Speaker 3>back then. This is a high amount, like ten lightsabers

0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:25.360
<v Speaker 3>at a time, like is pretty great, like delightful?

0:21:25.840 --> 0:21:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, come apart like sabers a twirl, like throwing them

0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:30.639
<v Speaker 1>like frisbees.

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Exact, very very postcause.

0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 5>I okay, many thoughts. First, Stormtroopers. Now, I know storm

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.119
<v Speaker 5>Troopers can't aim. The helmets still have good eyelines that

0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.640
<v Speaker 5>we've talked about this, but when you are stepping out

0:21:44.640 --> 0:21:48.560
<v Speaker 5>of the fog as an already united line on an unsuspected.

0:21:49.800 --> 0:21:51.280
<v Speaker 3>No one, this.

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Is a new loaf for the storm Troopers.

0:21:53.280 --> 0:21:58.000
<v Speaker 3>No, it's running away just like fucking shooting. You're getting

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:00.919
<v Speaker 3>shot in the back by a kid dude that is

0:22:00.960 --> 0:22:04.960
<v Speaker 3>a cop and he's just been traded anything.

0:22:05.160 --> 0:22:08.320
<v Speaker 1>It was insane to me, like this is too close to.

0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:12.480
<v Speaker 3>Close again, young audience too, because I do think even

0:22:12.480 --> 0:22:14.679
<v Speaker 3>though we will get into the body count, I do

0:22:14.720 --> 0:22:17.560
<v Speaker 3>feel like they didn't kill the characters with steaks, like

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:21.399
<v Speaker 3>the young characters, the characters we've really been following, like

0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:25.360
<v Speaker 3>the characters who did die.

0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:28.240
<v Speaker 2>I'll say too that there's a there's a middle ground

0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:33.840
<v Speaker 2>like we've seen and we are engaged with in this

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:37.160
<v Speaker 2>in this show, multiple characters with limb replacements.

0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:40.160
<v Speaker 1>So he gets shot in the arm. Somebody could get

0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:41.320
<v Speaker 1>shot in the leg.

0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:46.680
<v Speaker 3>To emerge as a sick. Disability cultures so many disabled characters.

0:22:46.280 --> 0:22:53.199
<v Speaker 2>To emerge unscathed. Riley to emerge unscathed from this for

0:22:54.119 --> 0:22:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Never Die, Yeah, I mean he sees his dad murder

0:22:57.119 --> 0:22:57.840
<v Speaker 2>fifty people.

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:03.639
<v Speaker 3>I know, I.

0:23:03.520 --> 0:23:05.159
<v Speaker 5>Was like, oh, man, shout out to the voice. That

0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:09.040
<v Speaker 5>act of the pain was palpable. But I agree, you know, Jason,

0:23:09.119 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 5>you you were talking in the breakdown a little bit

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:15.520
<v Speaker 5>about the quality of animation around the fight seeds and

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:19.119
<v Speaker 5>the aerial battles, and I couldn't agree more. Everything looks

0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:23.200
<v Speaker 5>really beautiful. But I think what was sort of disheartening

0:23:23.240 --> 0:23:25.760
<v Speaker 5>for me was like a lot of times in Clone Wars,

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:28.840
<v Speaker 5>the battles are still emotionally yes, exactly like you're You're

0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:30.680
<v Speaker 5>set to another shadow if we if we think about

0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:33.080
<v Speaker 5>even let's use some characters we have here, the mall

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:37.000
<v Speaker 5>and a Sosoca lightsaber battle and season seven of Clone Wars,

0:23:37.720 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 5>the show came back so many times. Guys, I'm sorry, Yeah,

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:45.560
<v Speaker 5>it was definitely the last one. Uh, You're they're jumping

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:48.119
<v Speaker 5>around in space on different platforms.

0:23:49.720 --> 0:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Tension is so high.

0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 5>You had only just learned how Mall dies from a

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 5>different series, and and coming into this moment, you're aware

0:23:58.240 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 5>that Mal could live, You're not I'm sure Asoka is

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:02.359
<v Speaker 5>gonna live, because we don't really know where her story

0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 5>goes in canon. At this point, you're on pins and needles,

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:08.919
<v Speaker 5>and each swing is hurting you because you're so empathetic

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 5>for both of these characters.

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:11.480
<v Speaker 1>If I, if I.

0:24:11.400 --> 0:24:15.439
<v Speaker 5>Think about some of our better moments in Clone Wars

0:24:15.480 --> 0:24:19.080
<v Speaker 5>even again, we can take Mal's death when he faces

0:24:19.119 --> 0:24:21.640
<v Speaker 5>Obi Wi in the final Samurai battle. Not a lot

0:24:21.760 --> 0:24:25.159
<v Speaker 5>happened in there, but the charge tension between the moments,

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:29.200
<v Speaker 5>the final snap of it pacing wise again just stunning,

0:24:29.240 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 5>and I felt as cool as they were, I felt

0:24:32.280 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 5>That's kind of all I was left with, was like, oh,

0:24:34.280 --> 0:24:36.200
<v Speaker 5>it's so cool, which.

0:24:36.280 --> 0:24:39.639
<v Speaker 3>I personally do agree that. I think I was thinking

0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:42.840
<v Speaker 3>about this a lot because obviously it's only it's ten episodes,

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:45.960
<v Speaker 3>the half an hour each, basically five hours of storytelling, right, Like,

0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:48.919
<v Speaker 3>I get it. But at the same time, I have

0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:51.480
<v Speaker 3>watched the show before, like think about and or right

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:53.880
<v Speaker 3>sorry again, like don't make and or if you don't

0:24:53.880 --> 0:24:55.960
<v Speaker 3>want everything to be compared to and or Right Sorry,

0:24:56.240 --> 0:25:00.159
<v Speaker 3>But like By the time you're five episodes in to

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:05.800
<v Speaker 3>Andle and people are dying, you care so deeply about

0:25:05.840 --> 0:25:09.520
<v Speaker 3>the characters who are dying, you cry when they die.

0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:13.080
<v Speaker 3>Their words become a motto for the entire show. I

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:16.520
<v Speaker 3>wish I could have felt that about Rook cast about

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:22.000
<v Speaker 3>one character, about the Zebracs, about.

0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:23.240
<v Speaker 5>By Darth Vader in arguably a very cool way. And

0:25:23.320 --> 0:25:24.960
<v Speaker 5>it's so forgettable at the end of the.

0:25:25.000 --> 0:25:27.239
<v Speaker 3>Day, I know, and I'm sad about it because like

0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:31.000
<v Speaker 3>I want, I want that to Matt more. I want

0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:33.359
<v Speaker 3>to feel it more, you know, I just I just

0:25:33.400 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 3>feel like the emotional aspects of it didn't hit for me.

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:40.399
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't as immersed in that emotional world.

0:25:41.000 --> 0:25:46.840
<v Speaker 2>The Zebras kind of throwaway deaths was very disheartening. It

0:25:46.920 --> 0:25:51.280
<v Speaker 2>was very disheartening because, like again, I think.

0:25:51.119 --> 0:25:53.120
<v Speaker 3>It just feels like there's so much to explore there.

0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think what Joelle, I think what you're saying is,

0:25:55.920 --> 0:25:58.000
<v Speaker 2>and this is I think a very favorite critique is

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:00.919
<v Speaker 2>the best kind of action is storytelle action. It's like

0:26:01.040 --> 0:26:04.120
<v Speaker 2>action that develops that moves the story forward, that moves

0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:07.719
<v Speaker 2>the character forward. And you know, what do we know

0:26:07.760 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 2>about mal from the episode two episodes ago. We know

0:26:12.400 --> 0:26:16.960
<v Speaker 2>that he's searching, grasping for this found family around himself,

0:26:16.960 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 2>and so you want it to mean more when he's

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:23.280
<v Speaker 2>losing exactly all of them in that found family and

0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:26.639
<v Speaker 2>they're falling all around him and it doesn't seem to

0:26:27.320 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 2>matter to him. Now, there's a haircut on that, which

0:26:30.080 --> 0:26:32.800
<v Speaker 2>is that's actually kind of a cool character too, one

0:26:32.800 --> 0:26:36.560
<v Speaker 2>that like in their mind they use this idea of

0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:40.480
<v Speaker 2>found family, they desire that, but really what they're about

0:26:40.560 --> 0:26:44.880
<v Speaker 2>is the selfish accumulation of power, you know, like they

0:26:44.960 --> 0:26:48.880
<v Speaker 2>say that, but that's propaganda.

0:26:50.920 --> 0:26:54.399
<v Speaker 5>They told Yes, I would be elated if that was

0:26:55.560 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 5>That's the other problem I think is like the name

0:26:58.000 --> 0:26:59.720
<v Speaker 5>of the show is a problem. And I'm a big

0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:01.960
<v Speaker 5>leader that titles do have importance in inpat I do

0:27:02.359 --> 0:27:04.320
<v Speaker 5>you cannot call this shit. I have not seen him

0:27:04.359 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 5>be a shadow lord, not once in this series. Most

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:09.919
<v Speaker 5>people know who he is, except for the main detective

0:27:09.960 --> 0:27:11.160
<v Speaker 5>who probably should have known.

0:27:11.560 --> 0:27:11.879
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:27:12.119 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 5>You don't see him covertly pulling the strings. Do You

0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:18.240
<v Speaker 5>kind of see him lure a pad one? But there's

0:27:18.240 --> 0:27:23.919
<v Speaker 5>something so just like selfish and lonely about that. It

0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:26.600
<v Speaker 5>doesn't read like calculating shaddle.

0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 3>No, and also like Veda, if Veada hadn't have killed

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.280
<v Speaker 3>how Mass that she would have never done. So it

0:27:31.359 --> 0:27:34.280
<v Speaker 3>does that even really count as more alluring at her

0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:36.040
<v Speaker 3>in that way? You know, like I don't. I think

0:27:36.080 --> 0:27:39.960
<v Speaker 3>you're right, Jewel, there's not enough machinations, not puppeteering.

0:27:40.280 --> 0:27:44.080
<v Speaker 2>To both of your points, there is a passivity of

0:27:45.840 --> 0:27:48.360
<v Speaker 2>the main characters here where it's like all of them

0:27:48.359 --> 0:27:52.240
<v Speaker 2>are just kind of running and reacting to events. Vario

0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:55.480
<v Speaker 2>is the one setting up these deals with Voss and

0:27:55.560 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 2>all these meetings and stuff. Maul is not putting any

0:27:59.600 --> 0:28:02.439
<v Speaker 2>of that into into motion. Even it's you know, at

0:28:02.440 --> 0:28:04.440
<v Speaker 2>a certain point he's like, yeah, well Crimson down has

0:28:04.440 --> 0:28:06.840
<v Speaker 2>betrayed me before, and but but he still goes along

0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:08.879
<v Speaker 2>with it. He has nothing other thing, you know, on

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:12.159
<v Speaker 2>the thing to propose. And I think that while I

0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:14.439
<v Speaker 2>did I love these finalties, I really did think they

0:28:14.440 --> 0:28:17.080
<v Speaker 2>were great, and certainly from an action side, I do

0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:20.080
<v Speaker 2>think that there is like they could be more active

0:28:20.119 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 2>in their own stories and they're just not.

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:25.639
<v Speaker 3>M I think for me that was like that was

0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:27.960
<v Speaker 3>the thing where in these two episodes, even though I

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:30.479
<v Speaker 3>did love the action, I love some character moments. I

0:28:30.480 --> 0:28:33.200
<v Speaker 3>even I even got like a minor chill when Devon

0:28:33.280 --> 0:28:35.800
<v Speaker 3>at the end was like I'm ready because I I

0:28:35.840 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 3>again like before the Acolyte, we had really rarely seen

0:28:39.120 --> 0:28:42.760
<v Speaker 3>like the actual luring, the actual conversation how somebody gets

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:45.400
<v Speaker 3>turned to the dark side. So obviously that's very appealing,

0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:48.080
<v Speaker 3>right and to it, But also why isn't that the

0:28:48.280 --> 0:28:51.840
<v Speaker 3>entire first season of this show? Like I don't get

0:28:52.280 --> 0:28:55.080
<v Speaker 3>why we started where we started and why we ended

0:28:55.120 --> 0:28:58.400
<v Speaker 3>where we ended, because this essentially hasn't told me anything

0:28:58.480 --> 0:29:00.640
<v Speaker 3>new about more. It feels like it was all leading

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:03.840
<v Speaker 3>to the Mall and Vada fight, but no offense to

0:29:03.920 --> 0:29:06.280
<v Speaker 3>the creative team because it was extremely fucking cool. That

0:29:06.360 --> 0:29:08.720
<v Speaker 3>could have been halfway through the season, and it that

0:29:08.880 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 3>have been. It didn't need to be the final big reveal,

0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:14.080
<v Speaker 3>Like the show in itself can be good enough, has

0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:16.320
<v Speaker 3>the potential to be good enough without having to rely

0:29:17.120 --> 0:29:21.840
<v Speaker 3>on old legacy characters, especially even though that was a

0:29:21.880 --> 0:29:26.360
<v Speaker 3>sick fight. I just feel like Darth Vader shouldn't be

0:29:26.440 --> 0:29:30.280
<v Speaker 3>getting the best scene in the Darth Maul's show, you know,

0:29:30.520 --> 0:29:34.360
<v Speaker 3>Like and I do I do think that while I

0:29:34.400 --> 0:29:36.719
<v Speaker 3>thought it was extremely cool to see mare Get his

0:29:36.800 --> 0:29:40.719
<v Speaker 3>fucking ass just absolutely demolished. Like that worked for me, Like,

0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:43.640
<v Speaker 3>I think that that's realistic to the characters. I think

0:29:43.680 --> 0:29:46.440
<v Speaker 3>it's cool. I think it's a fun subversion of our

0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:49.040
<v Speaker 3>expectations because more so well known for being such an

0:29:49.040 --> 0:29:51.680
<v Speaker 3>incredible fighter, but we're also seeing more at his lowest,

0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:56.360
<v Speaker 3>But like where was Maul's moment? Like that, like where

0:29:56.440 --> 0:29:59.080
<v Speaker 3>was the moment he was a great genius, a great machinator.

0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:00.960
<v Speaker 3>Where was the moment? And he wasn't just on the

0:30:01.040 --> 0:30:03.880
<v Speaker 3>run and in that case call it like mare Ronan

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 3>or something like, you know, more like on the outside.

0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:10.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's kind of almost more like the Obi

0:30:10.840 --> 0:30:13.440
<v Speaker 3>Wan show we got where it's more about more living

0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:18.160
<v Speaker 3>under the radar, also outer just like Daki has got

0:30:18.160 --> 0:30:21.880
<v Speaker 3>to be up there with like worst z list worst

0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:26.160
<v Speaker 3>ever Jedi Masters, Like could never come out with a

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.640
<v Speaker 3>worst Jedi Master than Daphy.

0:30:29.320 --> 0:30:30.240
<v Speaker 1>First of all, I want it.

0:30:30.320 --> 0:30:34.160
<v Speaker 5>Jason has this amazing thought of like what if this

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:38.160
<v Speaker 5>show is really trying to tackle the idea that like

0:30:39.080 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 5>the Jedi are inefficient and fish and like really taking

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:50.960
<v Speaker 5>an analytical look at their rules and organization, which I loved.

0:30:51.760 --> 0:30:53.360
<v Speaker 1>We said probably wasn't gonna happen.

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:54.880
<v Speaker 3>It was definitely not gonna happen.

0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:59.080
<v Speaker 5>And where Mal is like use your rage, and you're like, okay,

0:30:59.200 --> 0:31:02.440
<v Speaker 5>rage literally lind you you cannot think through things logically.

0:31:02.520 --> 0:31:05.040
<v Speaker 5>This is a dumb piece of advice to give to someone,

0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:06.200
<v Speaker 5>but it's very classic Moll.

0:31:06.280 --> 0:31:07.280
<v Speaker 1>We know he's going to do that.

0:31:08.040 --> 0:31:11.280
<v Speaker 5>And the counter was just completely like finally the right

0:31:11.320 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 5>thing to do, where you're like, hey, just go help

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:16.040
<v Speaker 5>that kid and like think through your steps and we'll

0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:18.960
<v Speaker 5>probably survive this, like you've got the training, like just

0:31:19.000 --> 0:31:22.240
<v Speaker 5>think about it. I was frustrated it because I was

0:31:22.760 --> 0:31:24.600
<v Speaker 5>a part of me had started to hope that okay,

0:31:24.600 --> 0:31:27.280
<v Speaker 5>well maybe all the way through we'll get a docy

0:31:27.360 --> 0:31:30.560
<v Speaker 5>who's like just peace and resist, you know what I mean.

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Finally I was the right thing to do, Like yes.

0:31:34.680 --> 0:31:38.440
<v Speaker 5>And I think to your point earlier, Rosie, it makes

0:31:38.440 --> 0:31:42.120
<v Speaker 5>it challenging to be excited about. And I mean, listen,

0:31:42.120 --> 0:31:43.320
<v Speaker 5>ask me if I want a season two.

0:31:44.160 --> 0:31:46.720
<v Speaker 3>I do well now.

0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:50.600
<v Speaker 5>I think one whether I wanted it or not, but

0:31:50.680 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 5>I'm excited where we left off. It just feels like

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 5>a mid season break. And I think too, like where

0:31:56.840 --> 0:32:02.560
<v Speaker 5>we go off is not the strongest for like these characters.

0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:05.400
<v Speaker 5>I was confused when they started breaking up over the

0:32:06.520 --> 0:32:09.280
<v Speaker 5>like toxic sludge pool. I was like, why would you

0:32:09.320 --> 0:32:13.440
<v Speaker 5>send your weakest characters? You would send part of the

0:32:14.080 --> 0:32:17.400
<v Speaker 5>first then your weakest characters, and then you would do

0:32:17.600 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 5>like the last MA would probably be last.

0:32:20.120 --> 0:32:21.880
<v Speaker 1>But they didn't so we could get this clean.

0:32:21.720 --> 0:32:26.600
<v Speaker 3>Break two x mark in a toxic waste you know,

0:32:26.760 --> 0:32:29.640
<v Speaker 3>Like it's like that was not expected that they would

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:31.760
<v Speaker 3>just find a toxic wastefool that they could.

0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>But left no go ahead, go ahead. I was just

0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:37.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll just wrap them up very quickly.

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:39.280
<v Speaker 5>I wish we had left these characters off in a

0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:43.720
<v Speaker 5>place where, like if we had seen young laws and

0:32:43.800 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 5>make a dramatic change after his father dies and he's

0:32:46.400 --> 0:32:48.880
<v Speaker 5>like no, actually I'm getting.

0:32:48.920 --> 0:32:50.720
<v Speaker 1>My mom involved now, and you're all fucked.

0:32:50.920 --> 0:32:52.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, yeah mom.

0:32:53.520 --> 0:32:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Or two boots like ping.

0:32:55.600 --> 0:32:57.320
<v Speaker 5>The black police guy we don't know that much about,

0:32:57.320 --> 0:32:59.080
<v Speaker 5>and see if he'll like come out like any kind

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:03.280
<v Speaker 5>of shift to be like I'm not aligned or reliant completely.

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:05.400
<v Speaker 1>That's the way where he's.

0:33:05.280 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 3>Just like actually, like what the fuck are youtuboe talking about?

0:33:08.680 --> 0:33:10.840
<v Speaker 3>Like what's this SITH thing? Like I want to take

0:33:10.880 --> 0:33:13.560
<v Speaker 3>down the people who separated me from my diry too.

0:33:13.680 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean some kind of in these characters, like direct

0:33:18.120 --> 0:33:20.400
<v Speaker 5>dynamic of their relationship, so that when we come back,

0:33:20.440 --> 0:33:22.720
<v Speaker 5>we're like, ooh, where does this go? As opposed to

0:33:22.720 --> 0:33:24.600
<v Speaker 5>everyone's kind of lost and again all we could do

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:26.120
<v Speaker 5>is be reactionary to our situation.

0:33:26.280 --> 0:33:32.040
<v Speaker 1>It's just I there's so much, not enough. I remain just.

0:33:31.960 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 2>To hit this point again with with the characters. I

0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:39.560
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing I think is really interesting. Daki, for

0:33:39.640 --> 0:33:42.880
<v Speaker 2>all his selflessness and you know, it's all about everybody

0:33:42.920 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 2>else and Jedi's protect they don't attack and they defend.

0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:49.080
<v Speaker 2>For Dakie to be the one like okay, I'll go yeah,

0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:51.360
<v Speaker 2>you're right, Yeah, I'll get out of here.

0:33:51.560 --> 0:33:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Let me get out of here.

0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:56.600
<v Speaker 2>And you got these guys great for that is an

0:33:56.680 --> 0:34:03.560
<v Speaker 2>interesting choice. If Devin sees that and goes, wait, what

0:34:04.240 --> 0:34:08.319
<v Speaker 2>like yeah, very interesting that all of a sudden, now

0:34:08.360 --> 0:34:12.480
<v Speaker 2>when it's you, you decide that selflessness is not the way.

0:34:12.560 --> 0:34:15.560
<v Speaker 2>That's like, if there was, if there was a cost

0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:17.040
<v Speaker 2>to that, that's interesting.

0:34:17.200 --> 0:34:20.960
<v Speaker 3>I was gonna say it. If Season two actually utilizes

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:25.600
<v Speaker 3>Daky's uselessness as part of her seduction to the dark

0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:28.319
<v Speaker 3>side because more can point out, like Jason said, look

0:34:28.320 --> 0:34:30.080
<v Speaker 3>at all this fucked up shit E did. Look what

0:34:30.200 --> 0:34:32.040
<v Speaker 3>he told you you needed to go to prison because

0:34:32.080 --> 0:34:35.200
<v Speaker 3>you stole an apple. Look At when you fucking like

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:38.239
<v Speaker 3>let you get lured by me and didn't come and

0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:40.719
<v Speaker 3>escape and help you, and I had to rescue you.

0:34:40.800 --> 0:34:43.239
<v Speaker 3>And now look at this moment where he ran away

0:34:43.280 --> 0:34:45.799
<v Speaker 3>when he was needed. You know, I think that could

0:34:45.840 --> 0:34:48.840
<v Speaker 3>actually be really interesting. I also I am interested because Jason,

0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:50.839
<v Speaker 3>I love that kind of point you made about like

0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 3>what if he just he aspires for these Faum families

0:34:55.040 --> 0:34:57.239
<v Speaker 3>but they never really kind of come to pass in

0:34:57.280 --> 0:34:59.439
<v Speaker 3>the way he wants. So I think season two does

0:34:59.480 --> 0:35:02.160
<v Speaker 3>have an interest chance to go two ways. I think

0:35:02.160 --> 0:35:04.120
<v Speaker 3>it will probably go the first way, which I'm going

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:08.040
<v Speaker 3>to say, which is basically like, now he has this unexpected,

0:35:08.320 --> 0:35:11.840
<v Speaker 3>uncurated found family and it will work because two Boots

0:35:11.840 --> 0:35:13.319
<v Speaker 3>and Riley will be a part of it. I don't

0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:15.160
<v Speaker 3>want to see that version, but it seems in line

0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:18.680
<v Speaker 3>with what they've done. Second version is he ends up

0:35:18.680 --> 0:35:20.640
<v Speaker 3>with these two people who are not useful to him

0:35:20.680 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 3>at all and suddenly has to realize this that the

0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:27.360
<v Speaker 3>facade must drop because they're basically keeping mine, and we

0:35:27.440 --> 0:35:28.480
<v Speaker 3>do get to explore that.

0:35:28.560 --> 0:35:31.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, what what I was proposing in those two ideas

0:35:31.600 --> 0:35:33.960
<v Speaker 2>also work. What I was proposing was more of a

0:35:34.000 --> 0:35:38.720
<v Speaker 2>cult leader angle, where it's likely a family. We're a family,

0:35:38.840 --> 0:35:41.960
<v Speaker 2>like we it's us against the world, like join with me,

0:35:42.160 --> 0:35:44.759
<v Speaker 2>like the world is shit on us, and I care

0:35:44.800 --> 0:35:47.480
<v Speaker 2>about you. I'm not like everybody else. I want to

0:35:47.600 --> 0:35:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I want us all to win together, you know, like

0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:50.720
<v Speaker 2>as a family.

0:35:51.000 --> 0:35:52.440
<v Speaker 1>And in reality, that's.

0:35:52.560 --> 0:35:57.719
<v Speaker 2>A that's just a pitch. These these people die all

0:35:57.760 --> 0:36:00.520
<v Speaker 2>around him. He doesn't even bat a fucking eye. Now,

0:36:01.000 --> 0:36:03.600
<v Speaker 2>what makes that, what makes that complex and cool is

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:06.160
<v Speaker 2>we saw the scene where he's tortured over the death

0:36:06.200 --> 0:36:11.440
<v Speaker 2>of his actual family. So there's this It makes it

0:36:11.480 --> 0:36:13.239
<v Speaker 2>complex if that's what they were going for.

0:36:13.280 --> 0:36:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Where he thinks he's doing that.

0:36:15.480 --> 0:36:19.080
<v Speaker 2>It's not like he's he's not a strategic he's not

0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:22.320
<v Speaker 2>a strategic cult leader. Where he's like using this pitch

0:36:22.600 --> 0:36:25.440
<v Speaker 2>to do this, he's like he's to a certain extent,

0:36:25.480 --> 0:36:30.120
<v Speaker 2>emotionally blinded to the fact that this is what he's doing.

0:36:30.160 --> 0:36:33.120
<v Speaker 2>He's truly hurting about the fact that he's lost his family,

0:36:33.560 --> 0:36:37.120
<v Speaker 2>but on top of that, he doesn't care about these

0:36:37.160 --> 0:36:39.680
<v Speaker 2>people the way he thinks he does.

0:36:39.760 --> 0:36:42.400
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't care about them, and so that's interesting.

0:36:44.480 --> 0:36:47.080
<v Speaker 5>That is very interesting. And to you know, if we

0:36:47.120 --> 0:36:49.839
<v Speaker 5>put our Star Wars fan hats on, which is to say,

0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:50.239
<v Speaker 5>we'll do the.

0:36:50.239 --> 0:36:51.319
<v Speaker 1>Labor, don't worry, He's got.

0:36:53.719 --> 0:36:54.799
<v Speaker 3>It. Is all like.

0:36:57.160 --> 0:37:00.480
<v Speaker 5>That, we got this, We got this. I will say

0:37:00.920 --> 0:37:06.680
<v Speaker 5>Mal's look of satisfaction when Daki is dead, He's like daughter.

0:37:11.560 --> 0:37:13.719
<v Speaker 5>I was like, this is the ball I've been waiting for.

0:37:13.760 --> 0:37:15.680
<v Speaker 5>And if I can talk about some of my favorite

0:37:15.680 --> 0:37:19.280
<v Speaker 5>moments from these episodes, I will be in the conversation

0:37:20.160 --> 0:37:22.799
<v Speaker 5>where they're negotiating. Now, do I wish there had been

0:37:22.800 --> 0:37:24.799
<v Speaker 5>more machinations at the end of the day, Yes, But

0:37:24.880 --> 0:37:26.799
<v Speaker 5>to see Mall at the head of the table, do

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:27.880
<v Speaker 5>you one is questioning?

0:37:28.280 --> 0:37:30.719
<v Speaker 1>Like you know Le, I was like, this is what

0:37:30.800 --> 0:37:32.279
<v Speaker 1>I've been waiting all season for.

0:37:32.600 --> 0:37:37.200
<v Speaker 5>Like this Mall in his element cooking like I found

0:37:37.239 --> 0:37:42.480
<v Speaker 5>that very satisfactory. I also did appreciate the performance on Devin.

0:37:42.520 --> 0:37:45.200
<v Speaker 5>I think both people who uh Devin and young loss

0:37:45.239 --> 0:37:48.959
<v Speaker 5>and when uh, you know, the dads die, I thought that.

0:37:49.040 --> 0:37:50.080
<v Speaker 1>Tension was really great.

0:37:50.480 --> 0:37:52.680
<v Speaker 5>And you know, we were talking earlier about the fact

0:37:52.680 --> 0:37:55.680
<v Speaker 5>that this is a it is a kid's show. In America,

0:37:55.840 --> 0:37:58.759
<v Speaker 5>you cannot show like red blood. That's why a lot

0:37:58.800 --> 0:38:03.600
<v Speaker 5>of things ooze green when people die. I love the

0:38:03.640 --> 0:38:07.120
<v Speaker 5>way Avatar The Last Airbender had a lot of very

0:38:07.160 --> 0:38:09.200
<v Speaker 5>powerful emotional death sines.

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:14.360
<v Speaker 3>I still think about when returns to the Air Temple

0:38:14.400 --> 0:38:15.879
<v Speaker 3>and finds out all his friends are dead.

0:38:16.120 --> 0:38:21.719
<v Speaker 5>I stout that so so chilling, and that's like episode three.

0:38:21.760 --> 0:38:23.200
<v Speaker 3>I think, yeah, it's crazy.

0:38:23.360 --> 0:38:24.720
<v Speaker 1>It's really early in the series.

0:38:25.520 --> 0:38:28.320
<v Speaker 5>I thought Lawson kind of going off into the smoke

0:38:28.360 --> 0:38:30.600
<v Speaker 5>and giving his son the last like, hey, I know

0:38:30.719 --> 0:38:33.640
<v Speaker 5>I could have been better. I'm literally about to die

0:38:33.640 --> 0:38:35.360
<v Speaker 5>in front of you. This maybe also could have been

0:38:35.400 --> 0:38:36.920
<v Speaker 5>better lost and I don't want to give you notes.

0:38:37.840 --> 0:38:39.400
<v Speaker 5>It was kind of a g thing to do, but

0:38:39.480 --> 0:38:43.520
<v Speaker 5>also uh rather reckless uh for a lot of different ways.

0:38:43.520 --> 0:38:45.880
<v Speaker 5>But I thought, like him just going into the fog

0:38:46.120 --> 0:38:47.719
<v Speaker 5>was rather effective overall.

0:38:48.440 --> 0:38:48.719
<v Speaker 3>So I do.

0:38:48.880 --> 0:38:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I do think that, oh.

0:38:50.120 --> 0:38:53.319
<v Speaker 5>Oh, the close ups of mall at the end, like

0:38:53.480 --> 0:38:56.880
<v Speaker 5>just the brushstroke were and the level of detailed animators

0:38:56.880 --> 0:38:59.040
<v Speaker 5>have put into this. It really allows you to sort

0:38:59.040 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 5>of read re emotion. I saw they filmed a lot

0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:05.280
<v Speaker 5>of sam we're delivering its lines with Mal's face paint

0:39:05.320 --> 0:39:09.640
<v Speaker 5>so they could up his face and the way he

0:39:09.640 --> 0:39:13.319
<v Speaker 5>pronounced annunciates words, And I think all of that hard

0:39:13.320 --> 0:39:15.160
<v Speaker 5>work really paid off in the end, Like.

0:39:15.080 --> 0:39:17.280
<v Speaker 1>There we got some really beautiful moments.

0:39:17.280 --> 0:39:19.799
<v Speaker 5>And if you stretch and pull yourself to say, I

0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:22.880
<v Speaker 5>know Mal so well, I can read between all of

0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:25.680
<v Speaker 5>these lines. I do think there's a lot of exciting

0:39:25.719 --> 0:39:28.640
<v Speaker 5>stuff just around the corner, Like hopefully we do get

0:39:28.680 --> 0:39:31.440
<v Speaker 5>a lot more machinations in the next season, Hopefully we

0:39:31.560 --> 0:39:33.680
<v Speaker 5>learn more about Devin than she's just angry.

0:39:33.800 --> 0:39:35.319
<v Speaker 1>If I tried to.

0:39:35.280 --> 0:39:37.480
<v Speaker 5>Describe Devin, I wouldn't know what to say other than

0:39:37.520 --> 0:39:39.320
<v Speaker 5>she's like a she's a Twilight.

0:39:39.160 --> 0:39:42.160
<v Speaker 3>And I don't even know what like one hobby is,

0:39:42.200 --> 0:39:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Like everyone in Star Wars has like a thing, whether

0:39:44.680 --> 0:39:48.239
<v Speaker 3>it's being a pilot, shooting one frats, whatever, Like what

0:39:48.440 --> 0:39:49.000
<v Speaker 3>does she do?

0:39:49.680 --> 0:39:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Good? She can fly? But is that what she loves? Joelle.

0:39:52.320 --> 0:39:53.960
<v Speaker 2>That's a good point, because I want to say the

0:39:54.120 --> 0:39:58.040
<v Speaker 2>one thing that is missing in Star Wars, and I

0:39:58.040 --> 0:40:01.080
<v Speaker 2>would say, like almost all Star Wars writ large, is

0:40:02.080 --> 0:40:07.680
<v Speaker 2>I want these various aliens to come with some kind

0:40:07.719 --> 0:40:10.359
<v Speaker 2>of imprint of the culture that they were raised yes,

0:40:10.520 --> 0:40:11.640
<v Speaker 2>who the story.

0:40:12.000 --> 0:40:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Bang away to put.

0:40:13.239 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's just too homogeneous. And that goes double for the

0:40:17.280 --> 0:40:19.920
<v Speaker 2>for the animated series, which I get like it is

0:40:19.960 --> 0:40:22.480
<v Speaker 2>for kids, but the fact that there's no oh, you know,

0:40:22.560 --> 0:40:26.279
<v Speaker 2>and we say this where I'm from or has some

0:40:26.480 --> 0:40:30.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of from there, you know, from their past because

0:40:30.520 --> 0:40:32.520
<v Speaker 2>some of this, but it's like not enough.

0:40:33.120 --> 0:40:37.000
<v Speaker 3>I think a lot about how remember in the Force awakens,

0:40:37.080 --> 0:40:40.680
<v Speaker 3>right when Ray makes that bread that's like it's like

0:40:40.840 --> 0:40:45.200
<v Speaker 3>water and powder and it pops up and it's That

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:49.120
<v Speaker 3>was like such a huge, silent little moment, but everyone

0:40:49.239 --> 0:40:50.799
<v Speaker 3>was like, oh my god, We've never seen that kind

0:40:50.800 --> 0:40:52.839
<v Speaker 3>of food before. Like what does this tell us about her?

0:40:53.239 --> 0:40:55.400
<v Speaker 3>Those are the moments we're missing. It's the same we

0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:58.480
<v Speaker 3>got them. Actually ironically in Ahsoka. I think a lot

0:40:58.480 --> 0:41:01.520
<v Speaker 3>about the Sabine stuff and like the Lothcats and the

0:41:01.640 --> 0:41:04.560
<v Speaker 3>quiet little bits of time we got with them. I

0:41:04.680 --> 0:41:06.680
<v Speaker 3>understand that they're on the run, it's a heist, it's

0:41:06.680 --> 0:41:08.880
<v Speaker 3>a crime show, blah blah blah blah. But like, I

0:41:08.960 --> 0:41:11.440
<v Speaker 3>don't know anything, Devin. Does she even listen to like

0:41:11.480 --> 0:41:13.439
<v Speaker 3>space music? You know what I mean? Like I don't

0:41:13.480 --> 0:41:17.319
<v Speaker 3>know anything. I am excited to see where they go

0:41:17.400 --> 0:41:19.120
<v Speaker 3>with it in season two. But I was gonna ask

0:41:19.160 --> 0:41:22.479
<v Speaker 3>you guys, like, once you've had darth More fight Vader,

0:41:22.600 --> 0:41:24.919
<v Speaker 3>like who even where do you even go with season two?

0:41:24.960 --> 0:41:27.200
<v Speaker 3>Like what's your big thing for season two? What's your

0:41:27.239 --> 0:41:29.040
<v Speaker 3>big conflicting.

0:41:30.040 --> 0:41:33.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I really feel like we got our two jealous

0:41:33.280 --> 0:41:38.120
<v Speaker 5>girlfriends here. They were going at it once found out

0:41:38.239 --> 0:41:41.200
<v Speaker 5>like she's way more conditioned than I am. So Mal's

0:41:41.200 --> 0:41:42.960
<v Speaker 5>gonna have to do what he can do better than Vader,

0:41:43.000 --> 0:41:45.120
<v Speaker 5>which is I think on his own in season two.

0:41:47.080 --> 0:41:47.799
<v Speaker 1>I think.

0:41:49.040 --> 0:41:51.640
<v Speaker 5>I wonder now, like you know, if you've read like

0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:54.480
<v Speaker 5>in Vader and Throng, like go on a hunting Mission

0:41:56.000 --> 0:41:59.120
<v Speaker 5>was one of my favorite stories. It's so delightful. I

0:41:59.160 --> 0:42:01.440
<v Speaker 5>really hope we kind of I would love to see

0:42:01.440 --> 0:42:03.080
<v Speaker 5>Thron pop up in this. I'm not gonna lie, Like,

0:42:03.080 --> 0:42:05.520
<v Speaker 5>imagine Vader and Thron hunting Mall and he's got to

0:42:05.680 --> 0:42:10.400
<v Speaker 5>like outsmart them with the syndicate. That's truly interesting.

0:42:11.080 --> 0:42:12.719
<v Speaker 1>And I think two knowing.

0:42:14.239 --> 0:42:18.040
<v Speaker 5>How much time is there between because yeah, because if

0:42:18.120 --> 0:42:20.640
<v Speaker 5>Luke is like a baby right now where we are

0:42:20.680 --> 0:42:23.120
<v Speaker 5>in the Mall storyline, he's like two or three. But

0:42:23.200 --> 0:42:26.720
<v Speaker 5>we know that we're getting a young Han Solo Sore

0:42:26.560 --> 0:42:28.319
<v Speaker 5>are like ten years between them, so we've got like

0:42:28.560 --> 0:42:32.239
<v Speaker 5>probably seven or eight years roughly where Mall is at

0:42:32.280 --> 0:42:35.080
<v Speaker 5>the head of this syndicate. Yeah, because he dies when

0:42:35.160 --> 0:42:37.799
<v Speaker 5>Luke is about like ten or twelve. Yeah, you're Luke

0:42:37.800 --> 0:42:39.960
<v Speaker 5>in the background on the planet. Okay, I'm in it.

0:42:40.160 --> 0:42:41.919
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, I think we've got a lot of time

0:42:42.000 --> 0:42:46.120
<v Speaker 5>hoping he's either Season two is like a large span

0:42:46.160 --> 0:42:48.760
<v Speaker 5>of time that we're covering and we end the story

0:42:48.840 --> 0:42:52.080
<v Speaker 5>in a really cool way, or we're gonna have to

0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:54.479
<v Speaker 5>not get to the Emperor next season and you're gonna

0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:58.560
<v Speaker 5>have to do like a thron Vader team up where

0:42:58.640 --> 0:42:59.280
<v Speaker 5>they're fighting.

0:42:59.320 --> 0:43:00.840
<v Speaker 1>And then we're leading into season three with.

0:43:00.840 --> 0:43:06.239
<v Speaker 3>The season two hardcore crime actual dim running it like

0:43:06.280 --> 0:43:08.759
<v Speaker 3>a crime boss could do a good time film for

0:43:08.840 --> 0:43:13.000
<v Speaker 3>season three where you kind of have those big connections.

0:43:13.400 --> 0:43:16.359
<v Speaker 3>I would love to see it. I'm interested. I haven't

0:43:16.400 --> 0:43:18.440
<v Speaker 3>really seen any toys or any of the things that

0:43:18.560 --> 0:43:22.399
<v Speaker 3>usually signify that they think they're going to keep making

0:43:22.440 --> 0:43:24.600
<v Speaker 3>more seasons of these shows, but we do know that

0:43:24.640 --> 0:43:27.319
<v Speaker 3>they're gonna make a season two. Okay, if you guys

0:43:27.320 --> 0:43:30.000
<v Speaker 3>were gonna get one action figure from this show. Which

0:43:30.080 --> 0:43:31.040
<v Speaker 3>character would you want?

0:43:31.200 --> 0:43:33.280
<v Speaker 2>One of the Zabraks.

0:43:33.800 --> 0:43:35.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, with that nice little dramatic.

0:43:35.840 --> 0:43:37.800
<v Speaker 2>Mask and that little mask over the face.

0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:40.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was pretty bad ass.

0:43:41.480 --> 0:43:44.440
<v Speaker 5>I want, you know, the really large figure in Sandy's

0:43:44.480 --> 0:43:49.200
<v Speaker 5>that are like action pieces frozen in time. Yeah, I

0:43:49.320 --> 0:43:57.280
<v Speaker 5>want like Mal and Devin fighting Smark Merrick.

0:43:57.560 --> 0:44:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think like all of their blaze, it's crossed.

0:44:00.760 --> 0:44:01.160
<v Speaker 5>Like a.

0:44:02.719 --> 0:44:12.200
<v Speaker 3>Big Toys situation. Yeah. I I would probably go for Darth,

0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:17.640
<v Speaker 3>most funny ass little droid. He's the most like little guy, energy,

0:44:17.920 --> 0:44:21.000
<v Speaker 3>love spy. He's like my show.

0:44:21.160 --> 0:44:25.920
<v Speaker 1>He's just kills.

0:44:27.320 --> 0:44:32.360
<v Speaker 3>He's got like big evil like John.

0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:38.920
<v Speaker 2>And Evil you die.

0:44:41.160 --> 0:44:43.640
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I mean great jobs. We can't wait to

0:44:43.640 --> 0:44:46.200
<v Speaker 3>see more care. There'd be more and more mawl in

0:44:46.320 --> 0:44:48.279
<v Speaker 3>it next time, fingers cowl.
