Ita funny how the two rebels speak loud as hell and just blurt out stuff like, "man thrawn sure is evil and stuff, better tell other rebels to watch out"
What I love about Thrawn is that his "evil acts" aren't run of the mill villainy or pettiness. Everything he does is efficient, and serves a purpose. For Example: Tarkin blew up Alderaan just to be an asshole and give Leia a feeling of helplessness, as well as to eliminate one of his largest political rivals. Vader kills subordinates out of straight-up annoyance even if their failure wasn't entirely their fault. Palpatine and Krennic had the Death Star built as a symbol of power, a tactically unsound symbol. It was just a "because I can" to them. Thrawn makes examples of saboteurs, feeds spies false information to control his enemy's intelligence, and focuses on the bigger picture. If Thrawn were in charge of the Empire, the rebellion would never have stood a chance.
Thrawn adviced even the emperor not to waste money on weapons (deathstar) instesd expand the fleet , if every single thrawn words are used by emperor then the amount of hope drops to zero
Thrawn is a great military leader but he is not very good in politics, it is his Achilles heel. He would need to have people to help him in the political parts of running the empire and there would be a big chance of allot of corruption from his underlings.
I feel like what also backs up your statement is Pryee's (sorry for spelling error) childish stupid sinister look on her face. Thrawn did what he did to make a leading example of what happens to saboteurs. He didn't kill a dude unjustly. He simply backed up the whole idea "You PURPOSELY fail to do your job, there will be consequences. " Pryee just smirks for her and Tarkin's weird fetish of seeing people being killed for the stupidest reasons. Even Vader who kills his subordinates, at least with him, all you gotta do is honestly try your hardest to do your job, be honest, BE HUMBLE, and be prepared to put your hands deep in the mud when he asks you to. Do this and you most likely WILL live and if you're EXTREMELY LUCKY he will even compliment you but he only has ever recognized certain individuals so rarely. That's why Vader is more down to work with ground forces than the officers because to him they're all the same. Ground forces at least see the ugly side of war personally and try their physical hardest to push and survive. Officers are just a bunch of greedy, selfish idiots who honestly don't even deserve their position of power and only thinking about the next rank/promotion. At least Vader recognizes true effort and will reward that by leaving you alone. People like Governor Pryee and Tarkin will have you killed for ONE MINIMAL ASS REASON no matter your service and devotion to the Empire even though they personally can fail just as bad but get away with it. That's why Thrawn stands out amongst all of the Empire. He's a next level position of power lmao. He totally has his reasons for what he does and literally does his hw before getting to work his good old Emperor.
The episode is just barely started and already Thrawn has us off to a huge BANG!!! God I'm soo glad they made him canon and brought him into Star Wars Rebels.
True most of the remaining clones still serving in the empire died out aboard the death star leaving only a had full left. However there were other clones as well as the jango clones because, the empire began to use other cloning facilities to prevent the Kaminoans from corrupting the jango clone DNA 🧬 however they eventually decided to scrap the project entirely as it was far cheaper to hire human recruits instead.
Thrawn's action here was completely logical. Malfunctions will cause lives, and he demonstrated what shall be the consequences of such events. "Whatever you build here, you will test yourself".
Hes also completely in the right, what if a guy who's just trying to get through his 9-5 rides it on patrol? Rebels dont care about the common man working in the empire.
@@Blundabus1337 That's like criticising the allies for killing German conscripts during WWII. Putting a stop to evil is always going to cause collateral damage, unfortunately.
@@lesterramos6468 Oh yeah, Tarkin and Vader killed fellow imperials for incompetence or insubordination way more often, and they often used much more brutal means than this. At least Thrawn had the excuse of Sumar doing it on purpose.
Well there is also the fact that the worker by sabotaging the bike and any other vehicles, equipment, etc is a saboteur and has all the right to have him executed or imprisoned or any other punishment really given other imperials have done all that and worse for far less
If the inspector did his job there would not have been a problem, he said he stood by his inspection of that bike. Having the people who make the stuff test them is a very smart and pragmatic option.
I kinda like Thrawn. He is such a troll all the time. He literally behaves like he’s playing chess and destroying his opponent, while simultaneously toying with them.
Love the music theme for thrawn. So ominous and foreboding and yet he isn’t even evil or take pleasure in cruelty. He just a calculating genius doing his job.
No he didn't. The guy who rode the bike was also the one that sabotaged it. That's why Thrawn had him blown up by the bike that he himself had assembled. I guess to Thrawn it was some sort of poetic justice.
They are, but in my opinion I feel like the show kinda threw off their character, well Vader at least, I'm not that much of a Tarkin fan tbh. There was also one cringy moment with Thrawn when he got mad that made me say "No, just no, that was kinda weak", but other than that I think they're on point with him.
Travis alexander when he got mad at Slavin? I thought it was in character, the guy is disrespecting art and culture and Thrawn can't deal with that ignorance.
rebels have some grate villains each season first season had tarkin second had darth god damn vader and good old MAUl and now we got the goddamn thrawn, this series just gets better and better, and unlike clone wars we don't know how it will all end! witch is better then knowing the ending.
Yeah I would let him do anything he wants to me, all over my body, anything he wants inside me he can do it. My body is his to do WHATEVER he wants - he will hopefully leave me how I should be, covered in his juice.
Droid: *Turns on and releases a speeder bike in what would appear to be an attempt to hurt people in the middle of an anti-sabotage lockdown* Imperial Commander: "DROID! What is the matter with you?! Report to maintenance!" ... Me if I were a storm trooper: *Blasts droid on the spot.* Imperial Commander: "What are you doing?" ME: "What, you didn't find that even the least bit SUS?"
Thrawn: Unless implicitly ordered too, you are not to fire your blaster in this facility. Knowing Stormtroopers constant missed shots you could have shot a fuel barrel. Besides a *droid* can be easily reprogrammed, that was a waste
1:58 You couldn't at least conceal your concern? Thrawn just figured out who One of the saboteurs are within the factory, he'll figure you out too if you dont-.. And why is he so shocked anyways? That rigged system would have still killed another human being, that *gasp* was more "oh no! We've been outsmarted!" Give me a break.. I mean yeah it's a gruesome sight seeing someone blow up, even agent callus showed some surprise and he's in the military and have seen it before- but at least his reaction was like "Oh damn.." Bridger was like *Gasp!* And put his hands on his head xD While everyone else reacted like Callus, bruhh, not only did the officer who sees less action than an ISB agent, but the workers as well reacted similarly to Callus x-X
I had an argument with a friend who said this was an evil thing to do. I pointed out that Sumar was doing the exact same thing to stormtroopers who genuinely think that they are the good guys. Thrawn was protecting his soldiers.
What 0megacron just pointed out is this: This isn't the Thrawn we've grown to know and like over the years, but the Disney-fied version: A blue human with color contacts. He doesn't even really have an accent that even slightly deviates from your basic Imperial, which would happen since Chiss are supposed to have a subtle difference in (I want to say) their tongues that makes it possible for them to speak their native language. That's if even _that's_ canon anymore. Stupid Disney! I don't like the changes much either, but there you have it...If Zahn's cool with it, I guess we have to be too.
3 plot armor in 1,5 minutes. NICE! First is the part when Kannan tries to contact with the rebels, and nobody notices it. Though that could have been easily solved by simply cutting out from the scene. The second was when Kannan suggested to get lost, and the stormtrooper standing in like half meter. didn't noticed. Third and strongest was that Chopper was not blasted there, and then.
He's kinda neither. He has full congition of empathy and is himself capable of the full emotional range. He is weirdly moral too as he would prefer not to kill if unnecessary. But he is professional and if blood msut be spilt and other options are exhausted, he will spill blood. its the case here. the actions of the saboteurs cost the lives of many already. However he didn't want to torment and witch hunt the entierty of the work force needlessly. so he made an example of one. His plan would work out whether his suspicions were correct or not. Had the man survived and the speeder had not be sabotaged, thrawn would have congratulated him for hsi skill likely. But warn that from now on all must test their own creations before they are sperad out. This effectively turns any rebel sympathizers into assets. Those self preserving will not risk their lives making boobytrapped machines if they msut operate them. Those more radicalized and devoted won't needlessly sacrafice their lives and be forced to work normally. Alternatively those who run would reveal their guilt and be picked off for it.
@@elitegamer9310 Thrawn straight up bombarded civilians in a kid's show IMO they should've aim for a more mature audience given your main villain is a tactical genius on the Arts of War on a series called Star Wars
@@korvo9936 He did, but the shots mostly hit buildings and not people. Knowing Thrawn, that was intentional. He wanted Ezra to see that he wasn't bluffing, but he also cautions Gar Saxon on Mandalore about causing unnecessary resentment among the population of Mandalore, so I can only assume if he wanted more civilians to die, there'd be much higher casualties.
What he did wasn't really evil, This guy was killing and sabotaging bikes which was killing troopers riding them. It's like placing IED's in cars in a manuacturing plant, It isn't good. Alot of the people he was killing were aswell enforcing local law and probably injured a few dozen civilians. What he did wasn't evil.
Thrawn didn't casually kill for failure like Vader did, but he did make examples of people from time to time. In one example from the original Thrawn Trilogy where he was introduced, he had his Noghri bodyguard kill an officer on the bridge of The Chimaera after the guy tried to shift blame to his subordinate for Luke Skywalker getting away.
If someone failed because of their stupidity, Thrawn punished. If someone failed but was trying their best (technician Rejlii Mithel setting new adjustments on the tractor beam so Luke couldn't escape in his Xwing), Thrawn rewarded.
Evil? He just hoist the guy by his own petard. How many troopers have been killed? The bike wouldn't have blown up if the Rebel on it hadn't sabotaged it/knowingly okayed the sabotage. Even if he had just unknowingly approved a defective bike it removes an inept inspector and demonstrates why the others should step up their game. (It was also a nice object lesson to Pryce about why hiring locals was in fact a bad idea.) I just LMAO both at the brilliance of it and that Disney let them go there on an XD program.
The Rebels are mad because Thrawn did this but they sabotaged it if it wasn’t the worker it would have been a Stormtrooper a Person with friends and family.
Did they really add a bowling sound at 1:52 ? I seriously can’t take the scene seriously after hearing that. I just think of Patrick yelling, “FINLAND”.
Thrawn is not having fun. He is not enjoying this. He is solving a problem in the most efficient way possible. Thrawn doesn't kill for fun, or even for run of the mill errors.
The guy who died was not a 'random person,' he was a Rebel agent, and he was the one sabotaging the bikes that exploded. What happened here was because they found out he was doing it.
People really like to praise Thrawn, when in reality this scene only shows how incompetent (and a psycho) he actually is; First: Making one of the enginers kill himself just to cause terror, that's an important lost of manpower in the factory of a planet with a small population. Secound: His order of making everyone test the vehicles it produces is irrational and stupid, theres a reason why we don't do that in the real world, you hire an inspector, you don't put a worker to test EACH one of the production, which also, reduces the production by adding a redundant task to the line of production which cannot be speeded and consume tons of time, halting production for long periods of time. Third; Killing a worker in front of his friends is like asking to be added to a deathlist or calling for more resistance in the future. Fourth: This isn't smart at all, nor ingenious, is just medieval inquisition in space.
not entierly no. His actions would work whether he was right about him being a saboteur or not. The fact it was clear he was, thrawn made the decision to make an example out of him. However had his decisiosn be proven wrong and the bike remained stable, he would ahve still implemented the plan, likely congratulating him for his craftsmenship and give the ultimatum. its why he had him operate his own creation rather tahn selecting someone at random. Killing someone innocent would have a diminishing return, if not embolden rebel activity, and would be a senseless loss of life of someoen who very may well not be connected to any rebel activity. Forcing the mechanics to test their own creations will ultiamtely inhibit further sabotage efforts. those with self preservation will not actively sabotage something if they must operate it. And even those more radicalized won't waste their lives so needlessly. the rebele sympathizers will be cowed and force to work normally, and the regular workers will be spared needless persecution and violence from any witch hunts for sabotage.
Imperial personal he seems to not want to waste like normal imps do, but slave working saboteurs that are destroying his resources, troops and costing him missions, like he says this will not be tolerated. Even if his example was near tarkin level, it still demonstrated his main point that everyone has to test the equipment personally before field use.
@@carloz1536 Besides workers seem to be less valuable than military personnel, especially in the empire. Especially when the workers aren't yours. Simply put it, Thrawn is responsible for the people under his command, not outside of it. Especially expendable, disgruntled workers, who he will likely probably never see or interact with again.

My question is how stupid do you have to be to not investigate a droid who would have a speeder crash when your under lock down for possible sabotage
Droid: *Turns on and releases a speeder bike in what would appear to be an attempt to hurt people in the middle of an anti-sabotage lockdown*

... Me if I were a storm trooper: *Blasts droid on the spot.*

Thrawn is not having fun. He is not enjoying this. He is solving a problem in the most efficient way possible. Thrawn doesn't kill for fun, or even for run of the mill errors.
you can tell the difrnce betwwen before he turned and after. before kallus was mildly surprised now he was horified.
Thrawn gave him the ride of his life!
efficiency over lives, the empire is a well oiled war machine not a sloppy military with no reason to kill random people
The guy who died was not a 'random person,' he was a Rebel agent, and he was the one sabotaging the bikes that exploded. What happened here was because they found out he was doing it.
People really like to praise Thrawn, when in reality this scene only shows how incompetent (and a psycho) he actually is;
First: Making one of the enginers kill himself just to cause terror, that's an important lost of manpower in the factory of a planet with a small population.
Secound: His order of making everyone test the vehicles it produces is irrational and stupid, theres a reason why we don't do that in the real world, you hire an inspector, you don't put a worker to test EACH one of the production, which also, reduces the production by adding a redundant task to the line of production which cannot be speeded and consume tons of time, halting production for long periods of time.
Third; Killing a worker in front of his friends is like asking to be added to a deathlist or calling for more resistance in the future.
Fourth: This isn't smart at all, nor ingenious, is just medieval inquisition in space.
not entierly no. His actions would work whether he was right about him being a saboteur or not. The fact it was clear he was, thrawn made the decision to make an example out of him. However had his decisiosn be proven wrong and the bike remained stable, he would ahve still implemented the plan, likely congratulating him for his craftsmenship and give the ultimatum.
its why he had him operate his own creation rather tahn selecting someone at random. Killing someone innocent would have a diminishing return, if not embolden rebel activity, and would be a senseless loss of life of someoen who very may well not be connected to any rebel activity.
Forcing the mechanics to test their own creations will ultiamtely inhibit further sabotage efforts. those with self preservation will not actively sabotage something if they must operate it. And even those more radicalized won't waste their lives so needlessly. the rebele sympathizers will be cowed and force to work normally, and the regular workers will be spared needless persecution and violence from any witch hunts for sabotage.
Long live the galactic Empire it is better it had more troops and it had more resources and worlds
Thats not Thrawn From books. He would never use his trooper’s life for example. He values all troopers and doesn’t trade lifes.
That wasn't a trooper.
It was essentially a slave worker.
He was a traitor and a saboteur, thrawn doesn't care about rebels.
Imperial personal he seems to not want to waste like normal imps do, but slave working saboteurs that are destroying his resources, troops and costing him missions, like he says this will not be tolerated. Even if his example was near tarkin level, it still demonstrated his main point that everyone has to test the equipment personally before field use.

Besides workers seem to be less valuable than military personnel, especially in the empire. Especially when the workers aren't yours. Simply put it, Thrawn is responsible for the people under his command, not outside of it. Especially expendable, disgruntled workers, who he will likely probably never see or interact with again.
These aren't his troopers, and these rebels have caused the deaths of many of his actual troopers.
The moment Sumar looked down, thrawn knew he was the one sabotaging the bikes.
