The End of Rebels

Zeb has the Lira San storyline to fall back on if necessary. All the other Lasat's are there, hiding in 'Wild Space'. So . . . . there's that.

EDIT: I think the majority of the crew will likely be spared and relocated in individual ways before Ep4. Then they’ll return, one by one, for Filoni’s next animated series. Just like Rex, who we already know makes it past Ep6.

 

Filoni never confirmed that Rex survives. He specifically says he likes the theory, but never outright states such a thing.

 

True. That hasn't been officially confirmed. Filoni wants it though. So that makes it 'canon adjacent' for me

 

I remember Filoni saying he views Rex as that old dude in ROTJ. I don't think it is just a theory he likes, but it isn't canon yet. I view it sort of like tweets or unproduced clone wars scripts. They are provisionally treated as canon, internally, but not actually canon until it shows up in some sort of official media.



I've heard that they want the show to go for 7 or so seasons and maybe lead into the battle of endor. The show could get very different after season 4. They can put Zeb back on Lira San, Sabine on Mandalore, Kill kanan, have Ezra wonder off and give us 3 seasons of Hera and the main rebel alliance between episodes 4-6.

 

It will end on Scarif, they're in Rogue One and not in ANH. I guess they are casulaties in the Scarif battle.

 

That would be a pretty big bummer ending for a Disney kids show . . . . . . do it Disney!! Kill'em all and let the Force sort'em out - if that's a thing it does.

 

That's a very long gap.

 

That's a very long gap whatever his age is. 35 years. Why coming back ?

Spoiler: Rogue One Spoilers and Pretentious Philosophical Ramblings

I remember a lot of people used the same logic for Rogue One, and while they were technically correct, I still disagree with them. It's sort of like the the epistemological thought experiment the "cow in the field". Summed up below:

This is in regards to "justified true belief". The farmer was correct in his conclusion that the cow was in the field, but he came to that conclusion on bad information. So, technically, while he was correct in his assumption, he did not "know" that the cow was in the field. He just had a lucky guess.

Same goes for this. Though the R1 crew died, and though it's possible that the Ghost's crew dies, it's not a foregone conclusion. In Star Wars, we only really see an extended scene with what we could reasonably refer to as the entire Rebel Fleet for one time- the Battle of Endor. Now, unless someone can name every single ship, every single starfighter and every single man, woman, and alien present at that battle, they really cannot know that the Ghost wasn't there (they could't have known R1 wasn't there either, until the film confirmed it).

And to be honest, even then one cannot be sure. Perhaps the Ghost was on a secret mission to Ord Mantell during Endor? Perhaps they were mopping up the mess on Tatooine? Maybe they were anywhere else in the entire GFFA. Mothma's not gonna put the operation on hold just because Hera had a flat tire.

The point is, their absence in the films is a weak argument. Sure, you think you see a cow- but take care that it's not really a sheet.

 

Well, the rebellion should have been aware then that Kenobi wasn't their last hope if Kanaan was still around ? And Ezra too ?

 

Maybe they're dead. Maybe they're in hiding. Maybe they've joined the dark side, as some have suggested.

We.
Don't.
Know.

 

In Rogue One, we saw ... about 20 seconds of Rebels on a 130 min movie, I really don't expect the ST to talk much about Rebels. They did cameos for fans but I would be very surprised if we see them in the ST.

Rebels is not seen by many people comparing to the movies.

 

Yeah, if there were any Jedi in the Rebellion when Luke joined up, he'd definitely be all up in their business. They'll have to go by some means by then.

 

Didn't Snoke said that Luke was the last jedi ? Wouldn't Yoda tell Luke about him ( because Yoda knows Ezra ).
