SPOILER Rebels Review S01 E12: "Rebels Resolve"

Great review as always! I can't wait to check out the episode. Thank you for the link as well.

 

Fullcrum will be Ashoka just watch.

Also they used music from Rogue Squadron at the beginning.

 

You mean music from The Empire Strikes Back.

 

I'm aware the R4 model is not new - I was talking about the overall look of other droids, particularly coloring that has rarely appealed to me. Nothing wrong with them, I just didn't particularly like them. My point was I was glad to have another droid that I actually thought looked cool.

 

I disagree. Palps has been using that facility for quite some time to experiment and such. I think Vader, as much as he wants to be in control and make decisions, just isn't ever there with Palpy. He is the Emperor's lapdog.

 

The past 3-4 eps have gotten me into the show more. RR was first rate.

 

@DanDino8100

Thanks for the link,worked like a charm.

 

Do you think we'll get another Vader cameo in the finale since there going to mustefar(sp?) Of all places

 

Vader and the emperor are rumored to be in season two episode one.

 

Wait......rebels resolve is episode 12? And next week is the finale? Didn't they say this season would be 16 episodes?

 

Citizens of the Cantina ... Star Wars is great as is, but this communityhas enriched my SW experience in ways I hadn't expected. It's so great to watch Rebels and immediaty be able to share my excitement with like-minded individuals. @Hermann22 ... fantastic post as always. Some great ideas here. I liked the @Link Voxx had about Vader perhaps deciding to install Jedi torturing/killing facilities on Mustafar. It would totally fit that he wants to engage in some kind of sick and twisted self-therapy, by killing other Jedi as he was also slaughtered here from a certain point of view. Also, it should be interesting to see what happens with Kanan. Based on FPJr's comments, it would appear that he will live on into season 2. I'm leaning that way. But still a) It could be a red herring or b) He'll be voice acting another character. I also kind of wondered what the heck the Inquisitor was doing to Kanan. It came across as an agressive Force mind-meld. Was he Force choking his brain? We know some Jedi can read thoughts, maybe this was an attack-like version? Well, only a week until Vader #2))

 

Great review on "Rebels Resolve". I just watched it. Here are my thoughts.

~~~~~~~~

1. I agree with the fact that the episode started off pretty good but it went a bit downhill from there.

2. I loved seeing more of Fulcrum and I can't help but think it really is Ahsoka, just judging by the way the cloak looks.

3. I, personally, don't mind Chopper's jet thing. Artoo had, like, two mini jets, so it's normal for droids like that to have jets, no matter what size, attached to them.

4. I enjoyed seeing Kanan getting tortured. Err, now that makes me sound evil. Let me rephrase that. I'm glad that they showed us Kanan getting tortured. It was kind of like Han in TESB. The Inquisitor's mind trick/squeeze/thing was interesting to see.

5. Ezra. I enjoyed seeing Ezra rebel against Hera. Why? Not because I like rebellious kids or anything (well, they can be pretty attractive sometimes, but that's not the point), but because we saw a little dark side in Ezra. I mean, would a Jedi rebel against orders? Most wouldn't, unless you're Reven, Malak, Anakin, Ahsoka, Kanan, or Ezra. What do most of these characters have in common? The Dark Side. Reven and Malak became Sith after rebeling against the Jedi to aid the Republic in the Mandalorian Wars, Anakin is Darth Vader, Ahsoka has her dark moments in TCW and Ezra pretty much used the dark side of the Force in one Rebels episode. Now, we haven't really seen too much darkness in Kanan in the show, but in "A New Dawn" Kanan has a few dark moments and we might see more of that in the comics.

6. It was interesting to see Vizago again. I wonder what favor he will ask of the Ghost crew next time we see him...

7. Mustafar! Finally, we are getting off Lothal!!! Not that I hate Lothal, I'm just getting tired of it. I wonder how Mustafar will look Rebels/Ralph M. style,


I look forward to the next episode. I have a pretty good feeling it will be, at least, good.

 

Pretty sure Kanan will be in season 2. Not exactly evidence but he is a Minifigure in the Lego Wookie Gunship set which we haven't seen yet in Rebels and from the product blurb below it should be appearing on the show:

"Protect Wullffwarro and his Jedi friend, Kanan Jarrus, with the powerful LEGO®Star Wars™ Wookiee™ Gunship. As featured in the Star Wars: Rebels animated TV series, this amazing battle-ready craft has loads of weapons to see off any invading force, like movable front cannons and an elevating top cannon. When the action really heats up, raise the wings into attack mode and unleash the never-before-seen rapid shooters! If you run low on ammo, open the side hatches to access the spare supply, then lower the rear bay door and unload the mobile gun post. Includes 4 minifigures with assorted weapons: Wullffwarro, Kanan Jarrus and 2 Wookiees"

 

Maybe the episode this is in will feature Chewbacca and possibly Han Solo.

 

A duel on Mustafar will happen with either Asohka VS. Vader or Ezra/Kanan VS. Vader

 

The gunship was in the very first episode, "Spark of Rebellion" - I think it was only shown docked with the Ghost, so we didn't see it in action.

I do expect the Wookies and the ship to come back at some point, though - solely based on the existence of this LEGO set.

 

I remember speculating this a while ago. I'm super disappointed to be right.
