    What can I say. I love Baylan and Shin. The mistery around them, their acts, sabers. Already obsessed too.
    Ray sounds so natural. For me the best acting from the show.

    Just commented in episode 1. Really like it. The music is epic. Hope to hear it in crescendo in some epic moments.
    The credits explains the travels, I want to think the Ezra and Thrawn ones. Or the one Ashoka and others are taking.
    If I remember well there are purgils.

    Am waiting for those experts to translate some of the letters. Maybe we discover something.

    Also, that machine Sabine is using seems and old and first vintage game & watch or something :Dlol Hope and expert finds the original.

    Respect.

    Baylan Skoll could play Chuck Norris and no one would say a word.

    The piano was utterly fantastic as my man strolled the corridors.

    Revealing that Sabine had been Ahsoka’s Jedi padawan between shows is like if The Mandalorian told us Din had been Luke Skywalker’s padawan between seasons 2 and 3. That’s . . . weird. Can’t wait to find out how that happened though :)

    A proper glass of Corellian Rum poured out in the name of George Lucas for dropping Ahsoka off on Filoni's Anakin's head during the middle of a war campaign.

    MODS: can we get an ORANGE LIGHTSABER added to the SMILIES collection?

    And a PAIR of WHITE ones since we have 3 slots open.

    So what's the read on Sabine being FS?

    I thought Huyang's line made it pretty clear that she is indeed FS, it just didn't come to her easily... but I've been told I'm wrong by quite a few people outside of this forum.

    I know in the line before that Sabine mentions not having the talent or abilities like Ezra does, but I interpreted that as her saying she isn't as good with them as Ezra is, not that she's completely lacking in them.

    I took the lines to mean that Ahsoka and Huyang had trained her as far in the Force as possible, only for Sabine to peak at virtually the lowest Force strength possible.

    In other words, I interpreted it to mean that yes, Sabine has achieved theoretical Force Sensitivity, but that she has no practical Force ability.

    But who knows? Not me, that's for sure.

    I think at this point it's just semantics. Huyang says she has the lowest Force aptitude he has seen in any Padawan. We were meant to think of Ezra as fairly strong in the Force, and that the Jedi had a threshold that needed to be met in order for them to take in a Youngling/Padawan. We were also explicitly told in Part 1 that Huyang is strictly programmed to follow Jedi Protocol, and he obviously approves of Sabine training as a Jedi, even encouraged her to continue.

    So I guess for the sake of the argument, not only is Sabine Force-Sensitive, she also has Force Aptitude, and she has Jedi training.

    Bearing in mind that he's centuries old and it was his core job to work with padawans. He's conservatively met thousands. And she's the least of them all. That's really saying something.

    This.

    (Until the day she force lifts the Mythosaur out of water, of course.)

    Perhaps Shin Hati's declaration that, "You have no power!" is due to her sensing exactly what you just said. Nice call.
    Filoni happens though, so I could be geeking for no reason lol.

    The wager thread is gonna be equal parts salt and equal parts drinks are on me.
    So Tatooine Tequila and everybody wins. That's my read.

    LOL, I've got some skin in that game so I should probably support my side. I think Huyang made it clear enough that the "Sabine Is FS" team is buying the drinks.

    I'm not a doctor but I did stay at Holiday Inn(I actually stay at a lot of them in my travels). Purley judging by where they got stabbed, Sabine might have had her liver brushed or it may have misssed it entirely but still would have been survivable with GFFA medical treatment. Qui-Gon looks like he got his aorta and spine clipped and that would have been a pretty quick death, except for his Force powers sustaining him until he could deliver his final message to Obi.

    I ain't touching the Grand Inquisitor, Reva and Maul. That blast makes no logical sense. It also makes no sense that when being stabbed, the victim does no further damage to themselves as they try to withdraw a laser sword from their body. Ain't nobody just standing there with beam of burning light in their bodies.

    So the ur-Kittât (Sith)language that is on the credits and the Star Map is also on:
    Malachor Sith Temple
    Exegol Sith Citadel
    Darth Bane's tomb
    Ochi's dagger

    Except it is an older, earlier version of the language.

    Exactly. I think Thrawn and Ezra will wait. We have too much on the plate. Even the end credits explains where we are going :p
    But I guess this is a good sign too: we think we know all but they can surprise us in every chapter with more worldbuilding and original visuals and character revelations. Watching Thrawn next week surely would be a surprise :)

    That's why SWNN Cantina is my one and only place to talk about SW and the new stuff:). People here can like something or not but we always (try XD) discuss all of it with respect (I guess :p) and valid opinions and constructive criticism with quite good maners and interesting debates.

    Episode 3, roll in please.

    Every single exit wound should be much larger and worse than it is. Watch what happens when Qui Gon Jinn shoves his lightsaber through the blast doors - how long before the metal begins to glow? Now, if we match up the duration of the body stabs will we be left with a genuine lightsaber inconsistency? Without measuring - sure seems headed that way. The way the double doors began to disintegrate, makes me think that the Grand Inquisitor's liver should have fallen out, burnt and not well done. It's not the stab that makes me raise an eyebrow - its the heat. The first law of thermodynamics is waht? Exactly.

    Those who play with lightspeed toys should know better.

    Im finding the storyline a bit stale as well as the dialogue, however it’s so much better than Obi Wan or Book of Bob 2 episodes down.

    The music and world building production is incredible though. It feels like Star Wars when Filoni is at the helm.

    RIP Ray, I’m happy I got to see you in Star Wars. You’ve brought an A game performance here!
