Much more thoughtful and slow than the first two seasons. Really good so far, really shows that there are still people trying their best to make good stories
@@Tweed_Tone How? This makes totally Sense. Palpatines Obsession of cheating death was established since dark empire. And George Lucas took it in Canon in episode 3. Ofc He is trying to do it
Generation Tech made a good connection that the young clones we see on that Jungle planet are likely the squad of cadets we see transferred off Kamino during S2 or S3 of the Clone Wars (dont remember the episode) in a super cryptic scene with Nala Se.
I think it’s more likely they are the group of cadets being told their training would be finished off world when kamino was being evacuated, you could be right though
I don't belive Omega has a high midichlorian count, instead she has the 100% genetic material template that can handle Palpatine's midichlorians. Remember her and Boba Fett are the only clones up until this point that were created from 100% genetic material.
yeah theory realy didnt understand anything there they were mixing the blood of SOMEONE WITH HIGH MIDICLORIANS with every clone's blood to find if they accept the midiclorians. AND THEY DONT INJECT CLONES WITH MIDICHLORIANS NOTHING HERE INDICATES THAT so no they crosshair may have force or may get force is total bs he said this cause he doesnt understand or pay attention. The hand trembling is probably just thx to the trauma he faced when almost dying or the experiments they did on him which so far we havent seen done.
Oh you're right, she has midichlorians, but I don't think its why she was a match, instead because of her template containing 100% material when all the other tested clones don't have 100% material.
I totally agree but what I don't get is why can't they just make more clones like this and if they are, why do they even need Omega at all... like can't they just clone random people? what makes Jango Fett so special for this purpose@@ethanthorn6678
Palpatine temped Anakin for 10 years until he fell to the darkside only to be killed 3 years later because he didn’t do a good job, spent 20 years building the Death Star only to have it destroyed in 20 minutes by a farm boy. Star Wars is filled with coincidences and pretty basic endings lol
I think the way to make the cloning cool is if, palpatine succeeds in making a force sensitive clone of himself that gets destroyed or mutilated during the clone rebellion. That would be amazing writing if the clones he orchestrated to destroy the Jedi, ended up being the demise of his cloning plan because he mistreated them in the end. (I hope this makes sense).
My theory is Vader will appear in the season finale and his appearance will be reminiscent of his hallway scene in Rogue One. Since the Clone Rebellion will be a huge threat to Palpatine, he will have no choice but to send in Vader. Vader will be a likely candidate for this situation as this is during the early days of the Galactic Empire, and theoretically there are no Inquisitors trained just yet.
@@ZetaShockBlast2529 Thats such a good theory, It would be so tragic to see the boys come full circle and die to the General they fought along side with in S7 of clone wars. I dont know if I could watch it 😭
I think it's too early for him to take Mandalor but I could see him as a side character or background character similar to how Director Krennic appeared in season 2.
This is a fantastic start to the final Bad Batch season. BTW, this is no children’s show, it is definitely aimed at us older folk. Brilliant writing and voice acting. The animation is outstanding. Great job overall.
Glad to be back with Theory SW reviews. 3rd episode was very good and I really like Omega more and more. The Omega / Crosshair teamup is pretty cool too.
Maybe, I mean, we’ve already got the fandom shipping the hell out of Shin and Sabine, so making Omega go that route isn’t really necessary, although I think that love for Omega in general doesn’t really improve the story or her character, not Ahsoka, but I could really see Sabine and Shin, cause they’re so smiliar, but Shin might sacrifice herself against Abeloth taking iver her body or something.
It can't happen. The actress played by Rey's mum, Jodie Comer, is a white actress. Since Omega is a clone of Jango, she'll need to be played by a Maori actress.
9:34 No she didn't delete or discard the Omegas blood sample if you recall in the episode. She couldn't with Hemlock and the others in the room. Hence why she encouraged Omega to escape immediately.
I personally REALLY enjoyed these first 3 episodes. In my vid I said that it really reminded me of how the last season of clone wars shifted tone to be much darker and finite. The stakes feel high and I can’t lie, I’m very intrigued by the blood and how it leads to the sequels/cloning/thrawn/etc. obviously we know where it ends but I have hope that they are going to at least make it an easier pill to swallow or explain things in a way that makes certain things understandable. Great vid and great first 3 episodes!
All love to your channel! There were a lot of missed details from the breakdown on Episode 2. I feel like Hunter was reflecting on the loss of Tech most of the episode. He reflects by looking at his glasses and even uses his datapad when trying to get Hemlock coordinates. Wrecker makes the comment that the last time they went in without backup they lost people referring to Tech. So it was interesting to see Hunter rush to the facility anyways. Lastly it is interesting to see that there were conflicting personalities among the clone cadets about whether to help the Batch or not was also dope
I noticed that hunter seemed much more stressed than he has been in the previous seasons. He's obviously very attatched to Omega, and worried about it all.
Honestly, the fact they are attempting to make the sequels more interesting by giving it a good backstory is exactly what it needed. Yeah the Sequels suck, but explaining where Ray and Snoke came from would be a good idea.
I was way more engaged in these 3 episodes than i ever was in any Ahsoka or Obi Wan episode or Mando episode S3 episode. Such a strong start to the season
I'm shocked I've seen no one said anything about the masked person in the 3 episode at time stamp 1:20. I have a hard time beliving that person isn't important due to how dramatically the view shifts to them watching Omega walk way. Then we just get a shingle shot of the masked person standing there with their arms folded with dramatic music playing.
I get why you would want episode 3 to be the premier, but I think the first two just set everything up (the exposition essentially) and is part of the reason why episode 3 works so great! Having the thoughtful context will also probably help as the season goes on as well
@StarWarsTheory here’s a theory, maybe the blood sample Qui-Gon took from Ani in Ep 1 was sent to the cloners and it was used with Jango and maybe another to create Omega. Would explain her being able to support the M-Count. They did say they need a match or greater, and Ani has the highest of all known Jedi.
@@harrygold8407 the only debunking to this is Palpatine could have had Vader’s blood at anytime. But not in the beginning when omega was created since he was still Ani. But I do think there’s one other mixed in, a female I’m guessing. We shall see, glad you like my theory!
A major reason why people say they don't like the sequel trilogy is BECAUSE of the lack of explanation or copouts for major plot points. So it doesn't make much sense to me why you would say "I don't like them connecting the story to the sequel trilogy." By doing so, they are literally fixing some of the biggest reasons why people don't like those movies by retroactively providing an explanation we can get behind. Those movies left us with more questions than answers and Dave is clearly providing those answers before we move any further into Star Wars cinema. IN FILONI WE TRUST!
5:20 i think it's more important she said "none of us" belongs here. Shows she is committed and loyal to every kaminoan clone, even the ones that chose the Empire. I think the whole plotline with senator Chuchi awakened something deeper in Omega
I'm pretty sure they've got a Jedi prisoner in there. It might even be Ventress since we know she returns this season. They're trying to figure out how to transfer midichlorians into a clone so they need someone with a high midichlorian count to take samples from. This is why they've got the laser tunnel. It's a defensive measure in case the prisoner escapes.
I really enjoyed these episodes, I don’t hate that they are connecting it to the sequels despite my dislike for those movies. If they can make the sequels even slightly better I’m all for it, and I think Dave is the right man for that job.
I don’t exactly think this kinda stuff will make the sequels as films better to watch or anything but I think it can make the lore introduced work better as a whole since shits actually getting explained possibly.
Awesome Video!!! OMG THESE FIRST 3 EPISODES WERE AMAZING!!!!!! I LOVED THEM SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!! Episode 1 was Great for showing how depressing and Hopeless it is on Mount Tantiss for Omega and Crosshair. It was a Really Great Episode and It really set the stage for them to escape. Episode 2 was also Great, It was really Cool to see Clone Cadets again! But Episode 3 has to be My Favorite! It had So Much Action, And I really wasn't expecting Crosshair and Omega to escape that early on, But I'm Glad They Did! And it was quite Surprising to See Palpatine again! I know People are mad that it might connect to The Sequels, But I think that Dave knows what He's Doing and He's going to find a way to make it really Cool and Very Interesting! These First 3 Episodes were Everything I could’ve wanted!!! Great Start to The Season! I LOVE THIS SHOW SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!! I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON!!!!!! FORRRRRR THE REPUBLIC!!!!!!
Dude it was so cool seeing Omega grow unlike Ray she actually has worked for it! Watching her fight alongside with Crosshair! Perfect start to the new season.
Honestly pretty cool so far. I’m curious to see what Dave does with project necromancer - hopefully it isn’t snoke just yet but someone else. Don’t wanna be connecting to the sequels this early on in the timeline
Necromancy is the art of raising someone from the dead. Who else would Palps want to resurrect if not himself? His whole thing is his ego and he doesn't have any intention of letting his empire get controlled by anyone else but himself. All roads lead to the Sequels. You just gotta make peace with it and go along for the ride. Otherwise you'll end up bitter like the reflexive haters out there.
I don't think it's just about connecting to the sequels. I think Rey is the end of years of experiments by palpatine starting even before episode 1 when he's training with plagueis. It's connecting everything together
@@ZoomerUnion what your doing is defeatist abd by accepting it as you recommend YOUR part of the problem ...consuming their shit and living with it is precisely why they haven't course corrected yet....fck u...he shouldn't learn tk live with shit....Disney needs to wise up before the finish off this IP
This is such a good and on point breakdown. Despite elements of the show revealing the road to the ST, I am actually enjoying the Bad Batch a lot so far this season mainly for its darker tone, enhanced animation and the story telling is solid. Omega has revealed much maturity. I like seeing Crosshair warming up to her and his sarcasm is entertaining. That said, I feel the show should focus on the transition into the Empire and how it affected the clones. I liked the second episode for this reason that it touched upon this with the young reg Clones.
I feel like maybe Filoni is going open-ended with the Palpatine stuff. Where we get hints and possible outcomes, but not exactly tying in exactly to the sequels
Too close friend! Yikes. So, so, so, so beyond HAPPY that Cross & the kid made it off that planet at least. See where they land next. They need Hunter & Wrecker, right about now.
I want them to do a show about him set after the clone wars. Showing him building his bounty hunting career and becoming the full grown Boba we know and love. Kind of like the 1313 game that we should have got but a show.
Ends with a palpatine hallway scene where kills the whole batch effortlessly and captures omega, followed by a time jump to something to do with cloning
I need more right now! This is unmissable stuff unlike chunks of seasons 1 and 2 of bad batch. I like how they are trying to fill in the gaps in the sequel trilogy similar to the clone wars with what happened between episodes 2 and 3. I would still love for elon to come in and purge the sequel trilogy from cannon and fix things with an animated sequel trilogy retcon but this is finally some good quality star wars!
I really like the episodes but I decided to do the same thing I did with season 2 and wait for all of them to come out as they aren’t that long. I also like your third theory about the Batch destroying the base and causing Sidious to have a bad body as it gives them all a happy ending. However I don’t really like Emerie very much, especially as she delivers the news about Omega’s blood and doesn’t exactly try to make a sort sister friendship with Omega.
it feels like disney is just scrambling to make the sequels make sense. in a few years they will be masterpieces because we'll actually have the context
@@mikey____235saying as how much money they’re losing, it’s possible. Also, all they’d have to do with the theme parks is re theme it OT and demolish a few things to replace them
Episode 1 was perfect! Omega and Crosshair being prisoners in the Empire has changed them in so many ways both subtle and blatant. Omega is just so hopeful and optimistic just like SWT said but Crosshair is a broken man and it made me feel so hard for him. To accept such a fate like that would break anyone. Especially when you were a good soldier and you followed orders. Omega and Batcher bonding was cute but I could have done without that. However, Batcher may become one of my favorite animal characters within the show soon. We'll see. I'm excited to see how this season progresses.
I really enjoyed these episodes and small prison escape arc and seeing palps is always great especially at these hidden facilities and seeing more of palps personal work and it feels like this was a nice little pre game arc that’s really gonna put us on the main story for this season and exited to see where it goes
I really love your content ! Been watching you for s few years now and i am extremly thankfull. My friends have kind of given up on star wars but i cant let go of this beautiful franchise. It has done so much for me and is a huge part of my childhood. Thank you and the community for giving me a place to keep my starwars passion alive!
One factor no one has brought up yet is the world between worlds the snoke thing happened in an alternate universe that would tie in the scene in the force awakens where Rey sees MANY versions of herself, it would ALSO preserve Star Wars
reading through legends rn and the word “abomination” is used in the Plagueis describing Plagueis’ own attempts at immortality and cloning experiments. don’t want to get my hopes up too high but maybe they are working EU material into canon? fingers crossed
I was excited for The Bad Batch, as soon as i seen Omega i rolled my damn eyes, here we go " the girl that is the key to everything" now here we are LOL... Only watching and commenting to help Theory
I know this is a stretch but I’m really hoping that the force clones inside the facility is actually Starkiller. I mean, hemlock paid reference to him through “I will strive to bring UNLEASHED glory…” at the end of ep 3. Tbh I don’t mind the whole clone palpy thing, just think reintroducing Starkiller would be a more interesting twist.
The first three episodes were really good, just like the other two seasons. They seem to start of strong have a lot of filler in the middle and end on a high. Hoping it will be good quality throughout the entire season
Love the idea of a perfect clone body off a young Palpatine in the tank. Have that be the initial body Palpatine's essence is transferred to after Return of the Jedi, and have one of the rumoured Heir to the Empire trilogy films be based around Luke confronting a young fully powered young Palpatine in the New Republic era (maybe played by Matt Smith), epic lightsaber duel, Luke wins and destroys the cloning facility thinking it's finally all over.
I cant seem to sit through this show ! But Ill always pop in for the Theory breakdown incase anything crazy happens lol! Thanks for making these man and saving alot of us time
Awesome breakdown! However you forgot to mention how the vines were connected to an artifical lab expiremntal sarlacc thingy 😂. Also my boy from Delta squad, SCORCH. CMON GUYS. like he has to snap out of it. Hurts seeing the clones so divided 😢
They got my hopes up thinking sidouse was trying to create force sensitive clone like he did in legends a few months after order 66. And that’s why they kept testing clones blood. Then I remembered it’s diseny and they can’t stf up about their disgusting sequeals.
I don’t know if I remember correctly but ventress’s appearance in the trailer is a 1 on 1 copy of her appearance once she was a padawan. You can see this while she is being healed by the night sisters after dooku’s assassination attempt on her
funny you mention episode 3 should've been the first one cuz i actually saw it first by accident and i was convinced it was first till i noticed my mistake lol
Doesnt quite make sense how Emerie never noticed that every time she drew blood from Omega she never got to test it. Like am I missing something here? How would she not notice for (going by Omega's tallys) what looks like half a year?
Like the Commandos. They look far too weak in episode 3. Don't get me wrong here, I LOVE CROSSHAIR to death, but, c'mon. He's slight in stature, beat down & undernourished at this juncture. He would have a very, very difficult time keeping up with them. Buut.. I will take it, I guess?

I think its Dathan Palpatine in the tank, not YET Snoke. Dathan eventually escapes and thus becomes Rey's father.
Hate Disney
Yo theory did you hear
Classic battlefront collection is coming March 14th to PlayStation will online and all
I’m playing as mace windu and palpatine
As the famous wrestler Jumpin Jeff Farmer said '' Yep!
I liked how the visual of that room/laboratory that Palpatine visits definitely conveyed the vibe of a Sith temple.
And that lab, gives me the feeling of Byss in Legends. Sorry, I only read the wiki, not the full novel.
Did you see the sith runes on the floor?! What’s THAT say?!!
And entrance with lasers kinda reminded Gideon's entrance from Mandalorian to his clone lab, if im correct.
Much more thoughtful and slow than the first two seasons. Really good so far, really shows that there are still people trying their best to make good stories
Really love it, you feel Dave Feloni is developing as a TV/Film maker - has a touch of Ashoka/Andor this season
So Palps had this elaborate plan for 50 fucking years just to get dusted by Rey in 2 minutes?? 😂
@@Tweed_ToneAbsolutely but that was already accomplished by the sequels my friend.
And apparently, Palpatine didn't learned his lesson from getting zapped by his own Force Lightning.

Not sure how they’re gonna top the emotional highs of season 2 but I have no doubt they will somehow
I know I’m gonna cry watching this ngl 😂
I saw Tech dieing from 7 episodes away. Very predictable. The rest of the main characters will probably die also.
Omega does not have a high M count. Emerie was very clear on that. She said it was a successful transfer with no degradation. Cmon now.
I love it the story plot is moving really quick and well balance of action and story plot.
Your comment on how this could’ve been Palpatine’s initial plan and it gets ruined leaving us with Snoke’s cranky ass is a good way to explain it

Agree, what else would they connect it to anyways,
100%. Similar to the Clone Wars show and the Prequels (though the prequels were muchhhhh better than the sequels).
I don’t exactly think this kinda stuff will make the sequels as films better to watch or anything but I think it can make the lore introduced work better as a whole since shits actually getting explained possibly.
Awesome Video!!! OMG THESE FIRST 3 EPISODES WERE AMAZING!!!!!!
I LOVED THEM SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!! Episode 1 was Great for showing how depressing and Hopeless it is on Mount Tantiss for Omega and Crosshair.
It was a Really Great Episode and It really set the stage for them to escape. Episode 2 was also Great, It was really Cool to see Clone Cadets again! But Episode 3 has to be My Favorite! It had So Much Action, And I really wasn't expecting Crosshair and Omega to escape that early on, But I'm Glad They Did! And it was quite Surprising to See Palpatine again! I know People are mad that it might connect to The Sequels, But I think that Dave knows what He's Doing and He's going to find a way to make it really Cool and Very Interesting! These First 3 Episodes were Everything I could’ve wanted!!!
Great Start to The Season! I LOVE THIS SHOW SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!
I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON!!!!!!
FORRRRRR THE REPUBLIC!!!!!!
Dude it was so cool seeing Omega grow unlike Ray she actually has worked for it! Watching her fight alongside with Crosshair! Perfect start to the new season.
Honestly pretty cool so far. I’m curious to see what Dave does with project necromancer - hopefully it isn’t snoke just yet but someone else. Don’t wanna be connecting to the sequels this early on in the timeline
Necromancy is the art of raising someone from the dead. Who else would Palps want to resurrect if not himself? His whole thing is his ego and he doesn't have any intention of letting his empire get controlled by anyone else but himself. All roads lead to the Sequels. You just gotta make peace with it and go along for the ride. Otherwise you'll end up bitter like the reflexive haters out there.
@@ZoomerUnion idk man you’re probably right I’m just being optimistic lol
I don't think it's just about connecting to the sequels. I think Rey is the end of years of experiments by palpatine starting even before episode 1 when he's training with plagueis. It's connecting everything together
@@ZoomerUnion At first I thought it involved deathtroopers, but I doubt palpatine would care so much about it.
@@ZoomerUnion what your doing is defeatist abd by accepting it as you recommend YOUR part of the problem ...consuming their shit and living with it is precisely why they haven't course corrected yet....fck u...he shouldn't learn tk live with shit....Disney needs to wise up before the finish off this IP
This is such a good and on point breakdown. Despite elements of the show revealing the road to the ST, I am actually enjoying the Bad Batch a lot so far this season mainly for its darker tone, enhanced animation and the story telling is solid. Omega has revealed much maturity. I like seeing Crosshair warming up to her and his sarcasm is entertaining. That said, I feel the show should focus on the transition into the Empire and how it affected the clones. I liked the second episode for this reason that it touched upon this with the young reg Clones.
Crosshair is the second best redemption arc in Star Wars cannon. Love that guy ❤
Our Toothpick! Always love for my Cross.
I feel like maybe Filoni is going open-ended with the Palpatine stuff. Where we get hints and possible outcomes, but not exactly tying in exactly to the sequels
I loved the reference of being “expendable” and how you mentioned Plo Koon’s talk.
I love this breakdown. You seemed like you didn't care for these episodes but you definitely went back and took every scene to heart. Love it!
I was on the edge of my seat during the final quarter of episode 3. The escape was a close call!
Too close friend! Yikes. So, so, so, so beyond HAPPY that Cross & the kid made it off that planet at least. See where they land next. They need Hunter & Wrecker, right about now.
@@clankers8929
We'll find out what happens tonight. 😁
I know Daniel Logan has a small voice part in the second episode but I wish he would return as Boba not a little kid😅
There's no reason to think he won't end up appearing before all's said and done
I want them to do a show about him set after the clone wars. Showing him building his bounty hunting career and becoming the full grown Boba we know and love. Kind of like the 1313 game that we should have got but a show.
Just did a watchparty with my pal, great to have the bad batch back again !
The amount of plot being cooked up rn just to make the sequels make sense is insane😂😂. Despite all that love season 3 so far
Ends with a palpatine hallway scene where kills the whole batch effortlessly and captures omega, followed by a time jump to something to do with cloning
I need more right now! This is unmissable stuff unlike chunks of seasons 1 and 2 of bad batch. I like how they are trying to fill in the gaps in the sequel trilogy similar to the clone wars with what happened between episodes 2 and 3. I would still love for elon to come in and purge the sequel trilogy from cannon and fix things with an animated sequel trilogy retcon but this is finally some good quality star wars!
“….UNLEASHED Glory” -Hemlock to Palpatine
I really like the episodes but I decided to do the same thing I did with season 2 and wait for all of them to come out as they aren’t that long. I also like your third theory about the Batch destroying the base and causing Sidious to have a bad body as it gives them all a happy ending. However I don’t really like Emerie very much, especially as she delivers the news about Omega’s blood and doesn’t exactly try to make a sort sister friendship with Omega.
Nark for sure
Great to have the Batch back again! Excited to see our boys Echo and Rex return hopefully next episode!!
it feels like disney is just scrambling to make the sequels make sense. in a few years they will be masterpieces because we'll actually have the context
Praying for a sequel retcon 🙏
sureeee 🙄🙄 and then disney is gonna demolished the star wars theme area in all the parks also. a retcon is never gonna happen.
@@mikey____235saying as how much money they’re losing, it’s possible. Also, all they’d have to do with the theme parks is re theme it OT and demolish a few things to replace them
If they were going to retcon the sequels they wouldn't be making Rey films
banger start to the last season
Yes sir been soo hype for this video
Definitely enjoyed these first 3 episode's, im excited to see where it goes.
I like George’s version of palpatine coming back. On byss
I was just disturbed by the way Palpatine was walking lol, he was supposed to have both of his hands in front of him 😆
That's why Dr. Doofenshmirtz is his true son
Episode 1 was perfect! Omega and Crosshair being prisoners in the Empire has changed them in so many ways both subtle and blatant. Omega is just so hopeful and optimistic just like SWT said but Crosshair is a broken man and it made me feel so hard for him. To accept such a fate like that would break anyone. Especially when you were a good soldier and you followed orders. Omega and Batcher bonding was cute but I could have done without that. However, Batcher may become one of my favorite animal characters within the show soon. We'll see. I'm excited to see how this season progresses.
It's funny how Palpatine is using the clones for research on how to extend his life when they were designed with accelerated aging...
Love the nod to star killer with Dr. Hemlock dressing like him and the “unleashed” line he used.
I really enjoyed these episodes and small prison escape arc and seeing palps is always great especially at these hidden facilities and seeing more of palps personal work and it feels like this was a nice little pre game arc that’s really gonna put us on the main story for this season and exited to see where it goes
I really love your content ! Been watching you for s few years now and i am extremly thankfull. My friends have kind of given up on star wars but i cant let go of this beautiful franchise. It has done so much for me and is a huge part of my childhood. Thank you and the community for giving me a place to keep my starwars passion alive!
Crosshair could sacrifice himself and say that it was his blood sample after he kills those that knew it wasnt his
One factor no one has brought up yet is the world between worlds the snoke thing happened in an alternate universe that would tie in the scene in the force awakens where Rey sees MANY versions of herself, it would ALSO preserve Star Wars
In more excited that Crosshair was freed and will hopefully rejoin his brothers. Need that dope armor again
Plan 72 ❤️🔥
I felt like the hound free outside was maybe foreshadowing of the escape and Omega free.
Loved episode 3 its so good Also that giant creature in episode 2 looked like a mutated sarlacc
reading through legends rn and the word “abomination” is used in the Plagueis describing Plagueis’ own attempts at immortality and cloning experiments. don’t want to get my hopes up too high but maybe they are working EU material into canon? fingers crossed
Its great how one of the cadets in episode 2 was voiced by daniel logan which could hint at Boba Fett appearing at some point
I was excited for The Bad Batch, as soon as i seen Omega i rolled my damn eyes, here we go " the girl that is the key to everything" now here we are LOL...
Only watching and commenting to help Theory
Man I love this show so much
I know this is a stretch but I’m really hoping that the force clones inside the facility is actually Starkiller. I mean, hemlock paid reference to him through “I will strive to bring UNLEASHED glory…” at the end of ep 3. Tbh I don’t mind the whole clone palpy thing, just think reintroducing Starkiller would be a more interesting twist.
I think that would be great for another story set after this. It could set up the tech and means to make him later.
The first three episodes were really good, just like the other two seasons. They seem to start of strong have a lot of filler in the middle and end on a high. Hoping it will be good quality throughout the entire season
Also amazing is that the “slither vines” aren’t just vines, but actually a horrifically genetically modified version of a Sarlacc Pit 👀
Love the idea of a perfect clone body off a young Palpatine in the tank. Have that be the initial body Palpatine's essence is transferred to after Return of the Jedi, and have one of the rumoured Heir to the Empire trilogy films be based around Luke confronting a young fully powered young Palpatine in the New Republic era (maybe played by Matt Smith), epic lightsaber duel, Luke wins and destroys the cloning facility thinking it's finally all over.
I cant seem to sit through this show ! But Ill always pop in for the Theory breakdown incase anything crazy happens lol! Thanks for making these man and saving alot of us time
What?? Why not? Just do it. I promise it's good and keeps you engaged. It has you in your feelings too knowing how things were before
"The girl is the key to everything!"
Of course she is.
Hemlock: "They're in possession of something I need." Cross: "The Kid."
"Fat Mace" just made me laugh so hard 🤣
Awesome breakdown! However you forgot to mention how the vines were connected to an artifical lab expiremntal sarlacc thingy 😂. Also my boy from Delta squad, SCORCH. CMON GUYS. like he has to snap out of it. Hurts seeing the clones so divided 😢
i dont love how its all being connected to the sequels but im a sucker for the clone wars and wishing for the best. really hoping we get type 2 windu
Thought the hand was from the empire disciplining crosshair by shocking him or something for not cooperating.
Could also be the pure shock of losing Mayday. Loved that Commander, didn't take shit from Nolan. Evil sniveler.
They got my hopes up thinking sidouse was trying to create force sensitive clone like he did in legends a few months after order 66. And that’s why they kept testing clones blood. Then I remembered it’s diseny and they can’t stf up about their disgusting sequeals.
I don’t know if I remember correctly but ventress’s appearance in the trailer is a 1 on 1 copy of her appearance once she was a padawan. You can see this while she is being healed by the night sisters after dooku’s assassination attempt on her
Great video Theory. You are keeping me interested in SW.
funny you mention episode 3 should've been the first one
cuz i actually saw it first by accident and i was convinced it was first till i noticed my mistake lol
Doesnt quite make sense how Emerie never noticed that every time she drew blood from Omega she never got to test it. Like am I missing something here? How would she not notice for (going by Omega's tallys) what looks like half a year?
Like the Commandos. They look far too weak in episode 3. Don't get me wrong here, I LOVE CROSSHAIR to death, but, c'mon. He's slight in stature, beat down & undernourished at this juncture. He would have a very, very difficult time keeping up with them. Buut.. I will take it, I guess?
I thought the episodes were really good and I'm excited to see where it goes. Love the slow charecter building.
