@@kiligan6525 yeah Lars Mikkelson is amazing as Thrawn, he’s always so soft-spoken and almost whisper quiet, yet in total control of the situation at all times. He’s able to remain intimidating without ever raising his voice. Truly a cut above even the greatest of imperial officers
The Sequel trilogy has been concluded and let’s just say you don’t want Thrawn in those movies. They might have turned him into The Last Jedi Hux so fast.
@@b.gronebaum4360 don't worry. I believe he is going to be the big bad at the end of the build up of all the Disney+ shows. And rumor has it, Lars Mikkelsen is going to be playing him in live action as well, so it should be pretty awesome.
The scene with Hera was spectacular, how he puts the pieces together from knowing the art and history and unmasked her. I also he introduces her with respect! And his theme music so chilling and amazing!
I love how Thrawn praises Hera's understanding of war better than he does. In fact, I really like how he has a respect for culture and art, even if it's from the enemy. You know he's capable of more than he lets on, but the fact he restrains himself is what makes him all the more terrifying.
I love how Thrawn can barely tolerate his lessor officers. Unlike other imperial admirals Thrawn seems to understand you can’t just keep the empire together through fear alone. That’s why he’s so amicable to the enemy. He tries to understand them, and if he had more power, not only would the empire likely have won, it probably would have lasted significantly longer as it ruled through a mix of fear and brutality, and also political maneuvering.
Well Thrawn is also trying to prepare for the Yuzzang Vong invasion, he needs the empires resources, from his perspective he can't afford to purge his officers
He probably hates the bureaucracy too. So many officials probably got appointed through nepotism or knowing the right people; Thrawn had to earn his way to the top on account of Empire being fairly… specieist? You rarely see a non human in empire, rarer to see one in a high ranking position
"Now that I have your attention, know this: whatever you build here, you will test personally. I expect your 'malfunction rates' to drop substantially." Bass ass level at A+.
"Not everyone is able to appreciate art as I do" 6:35 . After reading the Thrawn book, Eli Vanto wasn't able to either, but had a more respectful outlook than Slavin. Perhaps Thrawn remembered Eli at that time and was like: God I wish I had him right now.
Eli may had not completely understood Thrawn's tactics (such as his dissection of art at least, until after his plan was executed) but he definitely understood numbers and that too was helpful to fighting pirates and rebels in the book.
7:40 You know. If Konstantine simply admitted right there and then that he didn't have the skills required for the task, Thrawn would have actually respected him for his honesty and for knowing his own limits, and would have given him a contingent with which he could work with. But of course, he didn't. And thus he failed Thrawn's test.
I feel like Konstantine was the second worst admiral in the imperial navy because no one will ever beat ozzel for number 1, that idiot somehow always to manage to worm his way out of the blame until hoth
6:22 This is the moment I absolutely fell in love with Thrawn. He has deep respect for his enemy. He studies them, respects their cultures and heirlooms and regards them as art. He thinks less of any of his colleagues who don't appreciate it like he does because he sees war as an art, something to admire, something with deeper understanding, not a means to an end like other imperials would.
I love how he just grabs Slavin like, "ARGH, I'M GONNA BEAT YOUR ASS!" It's the first time you really see emotion from him since it's a cultural expectation for Chiss to be emotionally restrained. You get an appreciation for what you described as well.
6:23 I absolutely love how this is one of the only times when thrawn is absolutely livid with someone, he knows how much kalikori's matter to the twi'leks and their culute and he merely wishes to perserve it out of respect for Hera, this low level imperial officer wants to destroy it for the sake of "rebel bad" and would thus be obliterating any culture and memoriabilia just for a little ego boost, Thrawn has a right to be mad at him, its both disrespectful to any twi'lek that is loyal to the empire and just a jackass move in general.
When Thrawn appears in a scene and the organs start playing i always feel a cold chill running down my back. The rebels were lucky that other imperial officers were so damn incompetent and stormtroopers couldn't hit shit, that not even Thrawn could compensate this forever. And once he was gone, the rebels started winning battles. But before all they could do was shit their pants and run like hell as soon as he appeared on the battlefield. Not even Vader had this effect.
Thrawn isn't evil, he's just disciplined, and to fulfill his objectives, he needs the Empire to thrive. The rebels are a threat to that, hence the iron fist.
Chiss are actually very Noble warriors that will stop at nothing to achieve what they arrived for. Thrawn included. The test was justified as an act of war. Reguardless thrawn was with the empire for them to assist his people.
Thrawn is one of the best Star Wars characters hands down and is the best villain aside from Vader and the emperor. I love the fact that he respects his enemies and admires their tactics in war. Very admirable, ironically fitting.
Thrawn is my favorite Imperial Leader, (although it's hypocritical, cos i hate the Empire) he is quite brilliant in philosophies, art and culture, as well ad strategies and tactics, to beat his enemies and he anticipates them and makes them predictable.
as soon as i found out about thrawn i started reading the comics about him those when he almost captured coruscant.That was brilliant.I love that he isnt the classic star wars villain.He doesn't usually kill imperial troops when they fail unlike someone like Darth Vader.He considers it as waste of resources.
When Kallus said that the battle of baton had more civilian deaths than criminal deaths we often forget that those civilian deaths were because of pryce, not thrawn
one of the main reasons I like Thrawn so much as a villain is that he brings something that the empire barely seems to have- VARIETY. The separatists were a unified group from multiple cultures, and each had it's own race, technologies and unique characters. The empire however, has almot no aliens serving in it that I know of (except for Thrawn), and their technology and gadgets follow a similar way of design. Thrawn feels like a breez of fresh air, not just because of him being an alien, but his interest in other cultures as well. Thrawn feels like the only member of the empire that sees the worth of knowing about other species. hell, even his own bodyguard, Rukh, is someone from another alien race. Tbh, the empire feels like a way too narrow minded organization to have someone like Thrawn being a member of it.
Thrawn is so scary. He doesnt act all tough and intimidating like most of the other imperial officers, and in a way this makes him even more intimidating. He's calm, collected, and extremely intelligent (he has to have an iq of like 250 or something). What most imperials would see as a loss, he always says "yes, we did lose, but..." then share some shpeal about how they revealed themselves in the process. This is why he's probably my favorite imperial officer of them all.
I am glad they re-canonized Thrawn and did him right. Now we just need “Legendary” people like Kyle Katarn, Mara Jade, Jan Ors, Corran Horn, Natasi Daala, Ysanne Isard, and Sate Pestage to return to canon.
I do wish they hadn't given him pupils though. The lack of pupils and the calm, collected voice gave Thrawn a very ominous presence in the Thrawn Trilogy.
Sadly, I highly doubt they’ll ever do Mara Jade because they’re too scared to recast Luke and the deepfake CGI is too expensive/too much work to do long-term.
For many years, I have been convinced that Ysanne Isard, being a psychopath, was romatically attracted to the Emperor as another psychopath. I think she incorrectly believed she could impress him, form a relationship with him, and potentially become his Empress. I think it was partly in the hope that the Emperor would be impressed and aroused by her ruthlessness that she framed her father, leading to his execution.
Thrawn's voice actor is so good that when I started reading Heir to the Empire trilogy again recently this is the voice I hear and it really fits with his words from those books as well.
Lars Mikklesen's voice is so soothing and hypnotic. He perfectly portrays his confidence and expertise with stoic yet calm brilliance. I hope he pulls off the same presence in the live action Ahsoka TV series.
I remember when an early teaser showed him getting angry and I worried they’d muck up his characterization. Then I saw how much of an insufferable twit Slavin was and realized how much patience Thrawn must’ve had to not snap at him sooner.
I can't believe he studies every detail in most scenarios to get a leg up on his enemies, It's honestly terrifying because he can almost figure out what the rebels are planning and make a counter to it.
Sometimes I wonder in a clash of intelligence who could uphand the others between David Xanathos (Gargoyles) Light Yagami (the anime Death Note, not the Movie done in the USA), Batman (the greatest detective) and Grand admiral Thrawn...............................probably a draw because universe will explode by too much awesomeness combined
My favorite part about Thrawns story was that he was initially sent to prepare the Empire against another threat, but gets caught up in the larger politics of the Empire. He was clearly a military genius, but succumbs to his own hubris.
Huh. I didn't noticed that Thrawn respects art and the history. Art is also a part of my interest. I think Thrawn is a character for me. I am not a strategist but art is my thing.
At 20 seconds, his victory at Baton, with the immense amount of casualties. That is detailed in the Thrawn trilogy. Amazing books. ******Book Spoiler beyond this line:****** Thrawn was upset with what happened and the casualties were not his fault. He would have succeeded easily without the high casualty rate. Basically for a long time he was chasing after a brilliant opponent and treated him with respect. The high death toll was due to governor Pryce (Also in StarWars Rebel I think), awesome following her back story, modest origins and struggles and shocking to see how ruthless she had become at the end. I should re-watch Rebels... I watched it long before reading those amazing books.
If I ever become the general of a military I am using all of thrawn's ideas and methods "To defeat an enemy you must know them. Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art."
After reading the books this makes so much more sense, but also makes me disappointed that they only used him for this small portion of his impact in/for the empire
If they bring out a live version of Thrawn, I can't wait who they are going to cast as him. Lars Mikkelsen, Jason Isaacs, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mads Mikkelsen, Michael Fassbender, Christian Bale. Anymore good choices for this role? A dark, deep but yet soothing voice. High level of vocabulaire. Can sound menacing as well. But always stays calm.
Thrawn's Priorities. Rebels Destroy some Imp Ships: "Ah, a minor setback." Threatens to destroy piece of Art Collection: "You've just yee'd your last haw!"
There are things in the universe that are simply and purely evil. A warrior does not seek to understand them, or to compromise with them. He seeks only to obliterate them. -Thrawn That’s who Thrawn is. Rebels captured his calculating nature, but he is too sinister, and too loyal to the empire. Couple that with the STUPID way they finished the series and just, so unhappy with the portrayal
It’s the downside of killing the EU. He was terrified of the far outsiders and needed a strong ally. Kill that story line and he’s just cartoonily evil….err you know what I mean. And I’m sorry NO GROUP could possibly take the far outsiders place, fuck the new books,
Anyone else cringe at how ezra just walked out of nowhere in a scout trooper costume. Very subtle ezra. Just a random scout trooper chilling in the room
Everyone is saying that they want Ankain or Obo Wan as their star wars mentor but my opinion is that Thrawn would be the best. He was smart, he had plans and explained them, he respected people even if they weren't as clever as him. He could also fight and hi didn't kill anyone for their mistakes like Vader. I fucking love Thrawn.
If anyone could have run the empire more successfully then palpatine , it would’ve been this guy have you not got team rocketed out the galaxy , had he been running the first order , Rey and her pals woulda been caught within two days tops

They portrayed thrawn perfectly, especially the art
i agree the art.But also i think the voice actor delivered an almost , if not , perfect portrayal of the character
I have to admit Thrawn, all by himself, makes Rebels interesting for me, even though I think it is a very subpar Star Wars Series.
@@kiligan6525 yeah Lars Mikkelson is amazing as Thrawn, he’s always so soft-spoken and almost whisper quiet, yet in total control of the situation at all times. He’s able to remain intimidating without ever raising his voice. Truly a cut above even the greatest of imperial officers

I really want to see eli in the next season
wonder what would have happened if he didn't stopped himself in that scene
I figured he reacted that way because of the xenophobia he experienced at the imperial academy
Thrawn’s voice actor did an incredible job. He was the best part of the show.

Also nice to know since civilian casualties are not Thrawn´s preferred way to do things.

It’s the downside of killing the EU. He was terrified of the far outsiders and needed a strong ally. Kill that story line and he’s just cartoonily evil….err you know what I mean. And I’m sorry NO GROUP could possibly take the far outsiders place, fuck the new books,
Literally every moment Thrawn is in, the automatically the best part of any episode XD.
He has a Hannibal Lector feel to him, does that make sense?
Yes the voice actor is a close relative to Hannibal's actor.
More like Hannibal Barca
Thrawn is one of my favorite Star Wars villains.
The best villains are the ones who read the screenplay
6:22 brace yourselves, there it comes
6:24 HISS
Shows us the respect thrawn has for other cultures
The voice actor sounds like he's about to take a nap.
Lars Mikkelsen. Danes are down to earth people.
Jesus the chilllllls And Slavin looks and probably is so uncomfortable next to Thrawn
piece of twi'lek trash, anybody?

Thrawn should of won against the rebels Mark my words.
Anyone else cringe at how ezra just walked out of nowhere in a scout trooper costume. Very subtle ezra. Just a random scout trooper chilling in the room
When thrawn gets angry,I get some chills.
9:01 **Proceeds to mutter to himself through a loud visor that could have easily given himself away**
The poor captain he never understood
My man Grand Admiral Thrawn! 🙏🏽💪
Just reading his story (Thrawn) --can not keep that book off my hands...and when I do, I watch videos of the character :D
Imagine if Thrawn existed in Game of Thrones.
It would be awesome ngl.
I pray he is atleast this cool in the filoni movie
Now THAT is how to motivate your workforce!
Everyone is saying that they want Ankain or Obo Wan as their star wars mentor but my opinion is that Thrawn would be the best. He was smart, he had plans and explained them, he respected people even if they weren't as clever as him. He could also fight and hi didn't kill anyone for their mistakes like Vader. I fucking love Thrawn.
Just imagine if Vader and Thrawn met during Rebels. The Ghost crew wouldn't have stood a chance.
"Acceptible margins Agent 47, there are no more rebels in that area" you're welcome, I fixed the quote.
I love the gothic Dracula-esque organ music for thrown
If anyone could have run the empire more successfully then palpatine , it would’ve been this guy have you not got team rocketed out the galaxy , had he been running the first order , Rey and her pals woulda been caught within two days tops
coming back here after the reveal that lars is back to do thrawn in live action, he’s so great!
7:18 which episode is that
