    I really didn't see a reason to start a thread about this but if anyone wants to, by all means go ahead.
    Apparently Yoda is returning (kind of) in the seasons second half opening.

    I'm a casual watcher so I don't have too much to contribute, but I noticed two funny things recently.
    1) Ezra has magical hair. When he stands upside-down on his hands, his hair 'points' feet-wards in a rather gravity-defeating manner...
    2) Hera wears a pair of boxer shorts on her head, with the tentacles sticking out the leg-holes. I wonder, are they Kanan's boxers?

    That's all I've got. (My apologies if these have been noted earlier. I haven't read many posts here on the Rebels forum)

    Alright I'm bored who wins in a fight between the Inquisitor and Darth Maul pre-amputation if it makes a difference.

    Darth Maul, easily. The Inquisitor's opponents consist of untrained Force users and a few surviving Jedi. Darth Maul was able to kill Jedi Masters in combat instead of killing them while they were unarmed.

    100% agree. Darth Maul is a full blown Dark Lord of the Sith, while the Inquisitor is a lower tier dark force user. Its like putting an Imperial class Star Destroyer up against a Super Star Destroyer. Both are dangerous to other ships, but the SSD would mop the floor with the ISD.

    Some random thoughts I have about the series so far:

    I think its funny they tried so hard to make all the characters 'cool' except for Hera and ironically, Hera comes off as very capable and the coolest one of the group. She's my favorite character of the crew. Kanan isn't bad either.

    The two episodes that have Ezra and Zeb going overboard with the antics were from the same guy. He needs to dial back on that crap. Or better yet, how about they don't let him do any more episodes.

    I like that there is a continuation connection to the Clone Wars Cartoon in that Hera Syndulla is the niece of revolutionary Cham Syndulla seen in the Season 1 episode "Liberty on Ryloth" and season 3's "Supply Lines." Hope we see more stuff like that.

    Interesting. I'm not sure. We really don't know what the Inquisitor is really capable of and who he has fought. I'm sure Maul is stronger force user but since Maul uses his lightsaber more than force powers The Inquisitor wouldn't be a pushover because he is a student of lightsaber technique.

    Haven't seen it yet, but I just read a quick synopsis on MSW. As the saying goes, "I have a bad feeling about this..." when it comes to the fates of Rebels' Jedi(ish) protagonists. Most of us have suspected that Kanan and Ezra's very existence creates a rather sarlacc-like plot hole vis-a-vis the OT, so this post may earn me an "Old News," but we can pretty much definitively close the transitive loop now: If Yoda knows about Kanan and Ezra, and in RoTJ Yoda says that when he dies, Luke will be last of the Jedi (not counting Leia)--ergo the future probably isn't too bright for Kanan and Ezra.

    I'm always open for counter-points!

    I know the XFINITY OnDemand service through Comcast Cable is only available in the US (and is regional in distribution), but for those you have the service, you can watch the new episode on demand now online and on TV even if you do not have Disney XD as part of your cable package. This is my favorite episode of the series thus far. Also got chills, I did, when Yoda’s theme and voice I heard, hmm. this episode was kind of like a cross between the Clone Wars episode “The Gathering” from the 5th season and Luke’s cave moment on Dagobah with a little something new thrown in. I loved it. And I’m digging the new lightsaber design and here’s why…Ezra now has no legitimate excuse to ever pull his slingshot out again. And all the people said, “Amen.”

    I’m sure no matter how they end Rebels, Yoda’s line will be able to be “certain point of view”-ed.

    - Perhaps Kanan and Ezra are dead.
    - Perhaps Kanan is dead and Ezra never became a full-fledged Jedi (ala Ashoka).
    - Perhaps Ezra died and Kanan turned his back on the order because of his failure.
    - Perhaps one or both turned to the dark side.
    - Perhaps both are alive and living in an adjacent swamp on Dagobah hiding out from the emperor with Yoda, but he thinks this is what Luke “needs” to hear at this point in his journey to spur him on.

    Plot holes are overemphasized in my opinion. If you don’t want them to diminish the whole, there are always rationalizations to be found. I actually enjoy the process of forcing two mis-fitting facts together in a contained universe. It’s a nice way to develop your own backstory and deepen the universe.

    On the flip side nearly any story can be picked apart regardless of whether the plot holes are gaping or tiny if the picking of nits is your thing.

    For those still looking for the latest episode, here's the Google Drive playable link from "A New Hope". This guy has done us all a great favor bringing full HD videos each week! Just check on the reviews or preview clips on the front page of the website each week for the link in the comments section. Here is this week's - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6fqWZ3B24W5QjhnSDlyTDlQXzQ/view?usp=sharing . ENJOY!

    Also, just to add to the Darth Maul convo, I think it's really cool that the Son of Dathomir series ended the way it did. Leaves Maul to wither away, just like the Emperor wants.
