"To defeat an enemy you must know them...Not simply their battle tactics, but their history.... philosophy... art." Thank god they kept one of his main characteristic, he's a master strategist who use culture and art to find strenght and weakness in enemies ! I guess Dave Filoni was a fan ! The man who play the long game...
Amen!!!! 🙏🏽💪
That quote shows what makes Thrawn such a good antagonist he’s essentially space Sherlock and he learns
The thing about Thrawn is that he weaponizes his compassion. He hasd genuine compassion for others, but he knows how to use it against others, too.
The entire interrogation scene has to be the one of the most interesting introductions to a villain ever. He sees this single object and immediately knows who she is, why she's there, and that there is a rebel that will likely be a stormtrooper in disguise. But he doesn't reveal it; he continues his quiet, slow monologue, and even shows a mild amount of respect to her. That single monologue tells you everything about what this guy is like and why he is so dangerous. There's a concept that really intimidating people, don't need to shout. And Thrawn whispers
1:48 The blue girl called Numa was the small Twi'lek girl from Clone Wars who was found by the 2 clones Waxer and Boil during the Ryloth arc btw.
5:55 Gutkurr is the name of a hostile animal species from Ryloth who we also saw in Numa's Ryloth arc.
Thrawn is a genius. One of my favorite characters in all Star Wars.
“Today victory is mine. Long live the Empire.”
Had to listen to the soundtrack again from seeing that quote.
Thrawn it's brutal 🙀
Rana is just a pure bundle of joy. I absolutely love her energy and personality
Thrawn is too smart for Chris and I love it
Thrawn is a interesting character, the only alien imperial in a high position. He faced discrimination to get where is today. Won't reveal too much about him since Disney sort of rewrote him when they bought star wars. He was the villain after the emperor and vader died that luke and his friends had to face in the original sequel series from the 1990's.
After reading the new Thrawn books, I gotta say I’m okay with the changes made to him. We get to see sides of him not explored before. Although, now that we’ve seen such things, I doubt they’ll be as present in his onscreen appearances. Shame….
Well i would argue Mas Amedda has a higher position then Thrawn and is also an alien.
@@kebabgud true, I think it’s also implied that highly loyal alien worlds, especially in the core, are seen more favorably. Though, I’d say being involved in the Empire’s governance vs military hierarchy have different biases.
While they never touched upon the discrimination story in Rebels, I feel like this episode gave us a subtle hint in the scene where Thrawn is about to rip Slavin's throat out. Slavin is the type of racist prick that thrawn had to deal with way too many times in his career.
@@NerdX151 That was about Slavin insulting art.
"He is crazy"
Nah, he is just so unbelievably sane amd amart that it's frightening.
They are just starting to know much of a threat Thrawn is, and I love it
Thrawn was a big character in the old Expanded Universe, so people were hyped when he was added to Rebels. He doesn’t seem like much when he first shows up, but I think this episode does a lot to flesh him out for those who are new to the character. #SundayRundown
*”To defeat an enemy you must know them, not simply there battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art.”* Thrawn is one of my all time favorite villains and characters in general because what makes him dangerous and formidable is not strength or skills, it’s his mind. He is the nightmare fusion of Tyrion Lannister, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Sherlock Holmes.
And what make him unique as a tactician and strategist is that he can understand everything about his opponents based solely on their art!
Fun Fact: This episode’s title is a reference to Hogan’s Heroes, a tv show from the 60’s that stared a group of Allied POWs in a German prisoner of war camp. Believe it or not, it was a comedy (that still holds up btw).
So much to love about this ep, especially:
- Seeing what a diabolical genius Thrawn can be 😨
- Chopper’s pure joy 11:28
Marketa: He is crazy
the internet: No, He is Effective.
It's cringe to me how not understanding subtilty and quiet rational thinking she goes to "he's crazy" because he's not a screaming and yelling type of protagonist 😂
That's what made Thrawn so scary, he was genre savvy.
I love this episode because it highlights an aspect of the Empire's tyranny that often isn't focused on. Not only is the Empire forcibly occupying many worlds, stripping them of their resources and subjugating their people, but they also try to erase the indigenous cultures. Like, to most people (especially the empire), the Kalikori is just an object but to people like Hera, it's a symbol of their culture, their history, their values; something they must protect! For many in the galaxy under the Empire, their culture is all they have left. It's really cool when episodes like this and some in season 1 of Andor touch on this because it continues to flesh out why so many people oppose the Empire.
Also, idk if it was like this for anyone else but when I heard them say "kalikori" in this show it immediately reminded me of Kalikori Village, a setting in the game Star Wars the Old Republic; which of course is also populated by Twi'leks.
Thrawn's theme is so good, when you start hearing those organ pipes you just know you're screwed
4:52 As hera metioned they here and chopper mention when he meet AP5, hera saves him during the battle Ryloth. Since hera's home isn't far from the capital, chopper was most likely a part of the 501st who were in charge of the air battles of the final days of the invasion.
Thrawn is here!!!!!! Such a great villain and very different from Vader and Palpatine. Smart and calculating. Y'all going to see why people LOVE HIM!!!!
Palpatine has almost all the qualities of his subordinates but taken to the max. In terms of general intelligence, raw calculating mind, Darth Sidious outstrips even the likes of Thrawn by a long way. But Thrawn specialises in military tactics and strategy, which is why he’s such an effective weapon in his master’s empire.
I love how Hera uses her natural French Accent when she's pretending to be a servant, such a small but really fun detail.
Also... me and all my Homies Love Thrawn, he's the True Heir of the Empire.
Slavin and Thrawn are a classic contrast of a political appointee who was given their position out of nepotism and a leader who earned their position through hard work.
While you're right that Thrawn is super competent and does have all the abilities that a leader in his position should have, he did get his position because he had glowing recommendations from people like Colonel Yularan.
@@drizzmatec Yes but that is necessary in a humanocentric totalitarian regime like the Galactic Empire. Thrawn still earned it but he needed Palpatine's favor to open the doors.
Darth Vader respected only two Imperial officers; Grand Moff Tarkin and Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Y'all have met Numa before. She was the little Twi'lek girl from Clone Wars that Waxer and Boil befriend.
I love how Thrawn doesn't give a shit about capturing one set of rebels. He learned about them, and that moves him towards his wider goal of taking out the entire rebel alliance at once.
Chooper laughing is truly the best thing 😆😈
One of the reasons I enjoy the High Republic books is that it has one of the best SW Novel villains since Thrawn. Along with being another blue baddie, he really gives the Republic a run for their money.
Thrawn voice actor is mads mikkelsen's brother lol
This episode is a good example of why Grand Admiral Thrawn is both a great character and a major threat to the Rebellion. He has the military genius of Napoleon and the detective skills of Sherlock Holmes.
Thrawn so far:
Rebels steal planes... "let them have this meager victory"
Rebels blow up house with Imperials inside... "they have earned their victory"
Yeah this isnt your daddy's Star Wars anymore 😂😂😂
I freakign love that brilliant strategic mind of his. Brutal, nihilistic but brilliant.
That's what I loved about Thrawn in the comics and novdels as well. He was more than willing to spend YEARS to execute a single plan. Heck, he built his entire career just so he could ask Palpatine about Project Stardust. That man is made out of patience.
It’s exactly how he was able to accomplish what he did in the season finale
Mads and Lars are Brothers not Father and Son 😂
Thrawn is a huge deal whenever he appears. As long as he can think, he is a serious threat to anyone who calls him their enemy.
While his creator Timothy Zahn said that Rebels' Thrawn and his book's Thrawn are the same person, just in a different socio-political situation, I personally feel that this show, as much as I love it, barely does his unrivaled brilliance justice.
But for people who never read his books, I think it should be sufficient.
You guys are all so awesome! Watching your reactions is my happy place 😊.
13:29 I think they are brothers
That was one brave scout
So just an FYI in case you guys didn’t already figured out for yourselves the blue twilek that was riding with Cham on those blurgs was the same girl that Boyle and Waxer from the clone wars saved at the end of season one in the Ryloth trilogy. Her name is Nima I believe. Oh and Chris, you’re off the hook brotha! Forever saying some of the craziest shit, you should do stand up comedy! Peace and God bless you all this holiday season ✊🏾💯
And that right there is the reason why Grand admiral thrawn is as beloved as he is.
8:40 Grand Admiral Thrawn is in full control! 🙏🏽💪
Thrawn is the kind of guy that all stories need, someone who can think ahead.
Hey guys, you know what I just realized? Chris, Marketa and Spidey's glasses all have the same pattern around the lenses.
Thrawn is playing chess while the other imperials are playing checkers
Thrawn is the best imperial out there. He's respectful to other's culture and is very smart in what he calls "the art of war." As a character, he is great. There are some books about him out there, some are about his time before the Empire, so they would be a good read without spoiling anything.
National Roast Suckling Pig Day
You don't have to wait until Christmas to pig out on a decadent feast.
In clone wars Obi wan saves a blue twilek girl who kept saying a word he couldn't understand. That blue twilek is the same one who is with Hera's dad, Cham who was also in clone wars
The Clones saved the girl, Obi-Wan translated what she was saying to them.
Blurgs from season one of Mando, guys! Come on now
Exactly. 🤦♂️
I can’t believe my memories is light years better than theirs
@acdragonrider I don't expect anyone to pick up random star wars beasts. They love Mando and Quill so much I figured they would.
To me, it's not just a sentimental thing. The empire is colonizing, forceably assimilating, and ethnic cleansing Hera's home world. I think there's an internal struggle there between feeling like you are abandoning/letting die your home, your culture, and your history versus doing what may be best to win the war. But even if you win the war, you may lose those artifacts and cultural cornerstones forever anyway (much like how British museums are still chalked full of artifacts that were stolen by cultures the British occupied during the peak of the British empire). I like how Rebels and subsequent series have expanded past "the Empire is bad because the Emperor is evil and the Death Star blows up planets" to "the Empire is bad because it is an empire," and by definition participates in mass enslavement, racism, the general oppression of individuality, the genocide of cultures, and the removal of freedom of thought, and mass murder.
Well said!
You cannot say with a straight face that "All Empires = BAD".
I refer you to the rebel Cell meeting of The Judean People's Front from The Life of Brian....
Or, more seriously, take an HONEST lok at the full scope of comparisons between the nations that rose to Independence out of the British Empire as compared to the French or Spanish, or compare Imperial China's outcomes to Imperial Japan's...
Which states had a functional foundation and infrastructure and which remain cesspools of corruption and chaos?
Oh shit, I think Rana called out my Tweet about the Chopper Funko.
Great reaction!
I know for a FACT that if the childhood home I have lived in since birth was being occupied by space Nazis, I would rather destroy it 10,000x over.
There are basically two versions of Thrawn (for reasons that remain unknown). Both are tactically and intellectually brilliant but this version we see in Rebels is a ruthless villain who, like Vader, will kills his subordinates for their failures and is feared rather than respected. The other version is the complete opposite, one who has sympathy sometimes even for his enemy but has the utmost respect for his subordinates, treats them like family and will reward them for success but if they fail, he'll make sure they know WHY they failed so they don't fail again. It's funny that in the books, some of which take place at this exact moment in the SW history, making references to Ezra and Kanan, he is the 'good' version of Thrawn but in the TV shows he is the bad version of the character. It's really a little bit strange why they would have such contrasting versions of the same character.
One of my favourite episode
The GOAT has appeared.
Love the hat, and orange cami.
5:30 My man Grand Admiral Thrawn!!!!! 🙏🏽💪
2:00 I mean it’s hard to shoot riding like that regardless😅
Everyone seeing thrawn for the 1st time: omg what a cool ,calm and rational protagonist!
Normies: he's blue... he's crazy...
Me: SMH...par for the course
Vader is a chainsaw. Thrawn is the scalpel
The episode that show thrawn's briliant
I love that Filoni is mining the old EU for character like Thrawn to bring into current continuity. I think people overstate how much of a "genius" he is but I like that he is an effective leader an tactician unlike almost every other Imperial officer. I think General Veers, Tarkin and now some of the Andor ISB folks like Dedra are the only Imperials that ever seemed like a real threat. The Empire has endless material resources but the worst leadership. Lars Mikkelson voices him better than I could have hoped for and one of the only things I am hyped for in Ahsoka season 2 is seeing if they can show him being being an effective leader not just some corny antagonist like Krenic, Gideon, or the endless parade of asshats the Imperial put in charge.
Thrawn getting angry over Slavin's disrespect for art is one of only 2 times I think he gets angry in the entire show
I thought Trawn was about to Kylo Ren that guy in this episode.
Thrawn hands down one of the best sw characters
Did she really say “they’re finally making a Chopper Funko” ????? 🤦🏻♂️ theres been one for years now
I’m upset they didn’t remeber numa from waxer and boils time on ryloth
liked this video for the killmonger's scars comment.
Grand Admiral Thrawn 💙🎉🤘
Let’s gooooooooo
It's funny how Thrawn is most always unflappable. Cool, controlled. We never see him lose his cool...
Until now. And all it took was some heathen philistine.
Those are not AT-ST Chris,
those are AT-DP's not an All Terrain-Scout Transport, but an All Terrain-Defense Pod.
you gotta be accurate about these things if you want to be a real star wars nerd. Blindwave crew would have known what it was ;P
Trust me Rebels does not do Thrawn justice, not to say he's portrayal is bad but it's very much watered down. I recommend the canon Thrawn book trilogy HIGHLY. The Legends trilogy is also very good but not really relevant since it's not canon anymore and might honestly spoil some elements of the mandoverse movie which a lot of people suspect Filoni will pull from those books.
I like Mickey but on Rebels the energy is so much better without him on the couch lol Bro cracks jokes at every opportunity and a lot of times it’s during serious and meaningful situations or during dialogue
You all missed episode 0. Be sure to watch “Star Wars Rebels (Shorts)” as soon as possible. It introduces all the characters, so some of the things you’ve been asking questions about were already answered in them, since they came out before the show aired.
The Empire heavily discriminates against non human races; the fact that Thrawn rose to the rank that he did, is a testament to how capable of a leader he is. Given that discrimination, it's pretty obvious, his outburst against Slavin wasn't just about his disdain for art.
Topical timing of this episode with Israel’s genocide of Palestine
There's no way these people don't know who Thrawn is or what he looks like if they've even heard anything about the Ahsoka show, which is inevitable. Fake reaction.
