Seriously, I wish they kept doing more stuff with the Legends timeline, especially with such fucking awesome, GOD-TIER characters like Dash Rendar, Fordo, Mara Jade Skywalker and Kyle Katarn. I don't care if the Mandalorian has been popularizing the Canon universe, nothing in the Canon universe was as badass as Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, Dark Forces, or Jedi Outcast.
Disney did release a handful of new Legends content after 2014 (SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story, Marvel Star Wars issue 108), not counting re-releases and updates of pre-existing content. But considering the awful stuff they've been releasing lately, I'd prefer they avoid messing with the Expanded Universe as much as possible unless they're willing to do it justice. I'd rather have one good story every five years than five bad stories in one year.
Sounds about right. Even in real life, non-spec ops personnel get attached to special operations in combat all the time. We have military working dog (MWD) teams that deploy with spec ops often. Even though they aren't spec ops qualified, if you're a solid dude, they'll take you under their wing and give you some high speed training since you're gonna go out with them on missions. I know a handler that deployed with the green berets, and they were so impressed with his performance that they recommended he try out for selection, which he did when he got back from deployment. Dude passed, I'm assuming he's doing cool guy shit by now.
@@TheWaifu4Laifu that's so cool how a simple soldier could go on missions with bloody special forces. I always thought that special forces and only special forces could go on missions like that.
Fordo seems like a guy who keeps to himself most of times. To him, less talking and more action. He doesn’t talk or brag about good deed, no he actually does it.
Man I love how these simple additions to their armor make the higher ranking Clones look so freaking badass. These might be my favourite armor designs in all of Star Wars.
Fordo was cool because he never really spoke unless he needed to. He usually always used hand signals and he is really quiet a lot of the time. Definitely should have seen him more.
0:13 This coordination was beautiful He got his man to cover while being shot at, he realized what angle they must be shooting at. He asked 2 men to draw out their fire. He asked the surveillance trooper where the ambush is. Then lastly commanded the rocket trooper where to shoot while the 2 clones gave him cover...that is amazing

Fordo : troops we will only use handsigns. Unless my sayso
You have ARC Troopers, the most badass Clone Troopers in the military, the envy of everyone.
And then you have Fordo, who leads ARC Troopers and is being the single most giga chad clone to ever exist.
Fordo is the reason I’m a huge fan of the clones, loved this series back when it aired
Republic commando super Battle droids the most terrifyingest thing to ever live
But the most terrifying thing to ever live to a super Battle Droid is Fordo
2:57
I love this scene way too much
4 minutes... 4 minutes and 25 seconds is all it took for Fordo to become the Doom Slayer of Star Wars and one of the most popular and loved clones.
Fordo is definitely in my top 5 clones.
No, 1, and 1 only!
Seriously, I wish they kept doing more stuff with the Legends timeline, especially with such fucking awesome, GOD-TIER characters like Dash Rendar, Fordo, Mara Jade Skywalker and Kyle Katarn. I don't care if the Mandalorian has been popularizing the Canon universe, nothing in the Canon universe was as badass as Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, Dark Forces, or Jedi Outcast.
Corran Horn was teased in the Kenobi show along with a reference to Rahm Kota
@@lightkeeper1238 the show was trash lmao 🤣
Disney did release a handful of new Legends content after 2014 (SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story, Marvel Star Wars issue 108), not counting re-releases and updates of pre-existing content. But considering the awful stuff they've been releasing lately, I'd prefer they avoid messing with the Expanded Universe as much as possible unless they're willing to do it justice. I'd rather have one good story every five years than five bad stories in one year.
"Backup, NOW!"
*Shuttle explodes through the wall milliseconds after he says that*
Dude looks unstoppable
Every clone in the muunilist 10 had arc trooper training (most likely alpha 17's) even the plain white clones
Sounds about right. Even in real life, non-spec ops personnel get attached to special operations in combat all the time. We have military working dog (MWD) teams that deploy with spec ops often. Even though they aren't spec ops qualified, if you're a solid dude, they'll take you under their wing and give you some high speed training since you're gonna go out with them on missions. I know a handler that deployed with the green berets, and they were so impressed with his performance that they recommended he try out for selection, which he did when he got back from deployment. Dude passed, I'm assuming he's doing cool guy shit by now.
@@TheWaifu4Laifu that's so cool how a simple soldier could go on missions with bloody special forces. I always thought that special forces and only special forces could go on missions like that.
@@guythatstillusespocketwatc3145 naw man conventional forces work and train with SOF all the time, they aren’t always some super secret boogie men
In 2005, with the shaky cam, it felt like the first time a realistic star war had been put to film
i adore Fordo's non-verbal commands. It's so slick.
Random Clone Trooper: _"Captain, what are your orders?"_
Captain Fordo: 🖐☝👉🖖🤞🤘👌
2:50 thicc helmet
I love how at 2:48 they change the colour of his fin on his helmet
Promotion
And at 2:26
1:19 Obi-Wan: "Proceed with the next phase."
*Fordo switches helmets*
"Very good sir. Any other orders?"
"Ah a worthy apponent, OUR BATTLE WILL BE LEGENDARY"
0:25 Fordo: "Okay. You two, go."
That's basically what he told them and for some reason, I find him making the signs super hilarious.
Fordo seems like a guy who keeps to himself most of times. To him, less talking and more action. He doesn’t talk or brag about good deed, no he actually does it.
I'm surprised he's able to be this badass while under the influence of the one ring. Wait...
Palpatine asks for permission before talking to Fordo
There’s something calming about this animation style
Samurai Jack
This this show is so much better at showing how hard and dire the clone wars was
I really wish this had stayed canon
Whenever I first saw this guy he immediately became my favorite character.
3:07 I can pretend that low detail dude is captain rex and no one is powerful enough to stop me
Man I love how these simple additions to their armor make the higher ranking Clones look so freaking badass. These might be my favourite armor designs in all of Star Wars.
Fordo was cool because he never really spoke unless he needed to. He usually always used hand signals and he is really quiet a lot of the time. Definitely should have seen him more.
This man must've been terrifying during order 66
Yoda: Hold your positio- *screen cuts* Yoda: Excuse me wtf.
Guy goes from sargeant to commander to captain in such a short space. What a career he had! 😂
Phase I ARC armor in this art style just scratches an itch of some kind. If you don't get it, I can't explain it.
0:13
This coordination was beautiful
He got his man to cover while being shot at, he realized what angle they must be shooting at. He asked 2 men to draw out their fire. He asked the surveillance trooper where the ambush is. Then lastly commanded the rocket trooper where to shoot while the 2 clones gave him cover...that is amazing
Dude is such a badass they don't even know which rank to refer to him by
We need reinforcements!
Fordo : I am the reinforcements!
When we were kids my brothers and I would run around the house pretending to be these clones, signing nonsense to each other with our hands and feeling badass 😂 thanks to Genndy and team
"Fall back!" Doom music kicks in and holds the line on his own
When he said ✊✋…I felt that
Best clone ever !
