#Ahsoka #Ezra #Thrawn
This episode not only brought it with the easter eggs and a few meta star wars references, but I think it 'laid the groundwork for the series endgame, which will involve Anakin, Luke, Yoda, Palpatine and many more classic characters coming together to set up the next big movie.
So I’m going to talk about all of that later, but first guys-we finally got grand admiral Thrawn. So excited to see him in the flesh, and I’m very excited to finally reveal something to you: this is our grand admiral polo shirt, which is available at our merch store, screen crush merch dot com. Me and the team design these shirts ourselves, where this month we also have High ground, say no to death sticks-go home and rethink your life-and this beautiful poster or tapestry that traces the lineage of hamsters and apprentices.
We deeply appreciate all of you watching and helping us out, and supporting our store. But enough of that, let’s get to this breakdown.
Huyang and Ahsoka are passing the time, and he says [youngling stories nursery rhyme]. And you know, we have heard of this before. In the high republic stories, there is an ancient jedi nursery rhyme about a creature that turns jedi to dist-which turns out to be a real animal.
He says -stories one, 2, and 3…1 is best]. And given that ahsoka creator dave filoni is such a star wars nerd, I think this has to be a meta reference to the three star wars trilogies. And of course, the classic OT is the best-like Huyang says.
And when he tells his story, he says [far far away]. This is lovely for a few reasons. One, = this story does take place in a galaxy that is far, far away. But this is also, of cours e, how Star Wars movies begin. In the 1970s it was a way to connect star wars to escapism-your life may be sick on earth-but this story is taking place in a faraway land. The early trailers even echoed this [clip]. This iconic 10 word opening also evoked the fairy tales of our childhoods [clip]. This reference actually ties into a deeper meaning in the episode that I’ll talk about a bit later.
And with that line, the focus shifts to the faraway galaxy, and to Sabine’s journey.
The real barry pointed out that the design of peridia seems to follow the Lord of the rings. The night sister castle looks like gondor, the staties echo the kings of old-and add to this that sharks died and was reborn as ahsoka the white, like gandalf, and this als eems intentional. Maybe this is because sytar wars and the third aghe of middle earth are in similar situations. Civoizatioon is trying to rebuild, but a mysterious dark force form far away threatens the peaceful kingdom.
4d puzzle ad
Back to ahsoka, where Sabine’s prison cell’s window is an inverted triangle-which I thought was interesting, because the symbol of the sith is often a triangle. The idea being that the Sith are ruled by a single point-a single master at the top of the pyramid-while the Jedi sit in a circle that is more like King Arthur's round table, where everyone has an equal voice.
But the night sisters-like the sith-use the dark side of the force. But their magic stems from a deeper place-and we see this with their architecture, it all seems to come up from the ground. Even in the clone wars and the game jedi: fallen order the night sister temples always seem to be carved into the rock of planet dathomir.
So an inverted pyramid shows that they are unlike the sith-not seeking power to rule and conquer. But also, with the night sisters we see the occurrence of threes. In this episode, it is the three force witches. And on this channel before we’ve talked about how in mythology the recurrence of three witches represents 3 stages of womanhood-the mother, the maiden and the crone. We use ethos in the Scottish play, and even in movies like Hocus pocus. - Krátké a kreslené filmy

Can you find out what Thrawns 4 space pens are in his front pockets?
The Amazon link doesn't show any in stock and buying options show one for 85.99. False advertising.
Ace Rimmer in Red Dwarf had his holoprogecters form the ring of a planet upon his deaths like the space whales.
@Ryan Baylon wants to go back to the beginning….Via the World between Worlds! What stirs on that planet are tunnels like the Loth tunnels on Lothar!!!
The bandits helmets look very Zepho-ish, don't they?
It’s surreal seeing all these characters in live action.
It’s probably the most satisfying bit of television in my lifetime so far
As an Ahsoka novice, how can I learn more about her and this show. I started the Clone Wars. Please and Thank you.
@@dgf6275Watch Star Wars Rebels instead.
Shid go hard
Watch Clone Wars start to finish and the Tales of the Jedi Episode 1, 5, & 6 to understand Ashoka.
You missed a classic quote from a New Hope. Baylan said of Sabine, "She may still be of some use to us." Just like Vader and Tarkin said of Leia.
MISSED ONE!! Watching with CC on, the troopers are referred to as “Night Troopers”. Add that to your funeral robe wrappings and death masks, and I believe they are all reanimated by the Night Sisters which would also explain Thrain’s comment about needing the Night Sisters magick again.
He mentioned the theory that they are dead right after comparing the red on their gear with the Night Sisters garments.
@@morpork-jj2wiDidn’t mention the captions tho
I caught that also. I always watch movies with the English close caption on so I don’t miss any dialogue that you can sometimes not hear but is called on CC. That’s how I caught the night troopers as well. There for a minute I thought The Great Mother was Mother Talzin. But it wasn’t. It sounded so much like her.
Thrawns entrance scene was just too awesome ❤
I loved the last episode (for obvious reasons), but THIS is the episode that Star Wars as an IP/universe needed. Desperately too I might add. This is one of the few moments where they expand on the MYTHOS of Star Wars. Not just adding lore, but history and mysticism to Star Wars. Going far beyond the established Jedi/sith trope. Nightsisters is a win.
This is definitely my favorite episode of Ahsoka so far. It felt more expansive, like you said, and at the same time as it broader the Star Wars universe it also got into the characters’ feelings more, like the conversation between Baylon and Shin. I’m always craving more details on what the characters are thinking and feeling.
Agreed, this is such a good episode and I hope they see that this world building and story telling is better than just fan service. I love the fan service but when it’s combined with good storytelling it makes something so much better
I feel like Beylan is new Kreia but with less wisdom ofc
@@777mustdieI think we're gonna see them turn on Thrawn since he has no loyalty to anyone really. And this new Sith order will be more democratic, "the enemy of my enemy is my ally"
Shin doesn't seem bloodthirsty either, so I'm hoping we explore that nuance
Then they finally all clash in a film and test their will, it could be so fun
@@777mustdie I think they dropped the ball waiting until 6/8 to convey Baylan's motivations, but I agree. The force is what keep the cycle of death going, all to maintain a measure of balance. It's a huge bummer that Stevenson died.
Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati are freaking AMAZING characters. I could watch them all day. I hope Shin sticks around in future series' and we get to see her development as a character.
Maybe become an apprentice of ahsoka
The actor that plays Baylan skoll die this year. R.I.P
Ray Stevenson passed away May this year aged 59
@@o0bananaman0oonly 59? Shit that sucks! Did he have an illness that led to him dying that young, would had hoped to have seen him in more series/movies in the future.
@MNM-lq9te nothing official has come out but people think that it was a heart attack
Thrawn is incredible! I don’t know what makes him so perfect but 5/5!! Also I like that Sabine cannot weild the force just like that, she actually has issues with the force. The music has been perfect - I really love this series.
My one quibble was with the lack of cheekbones. But I rationalized it by the amount of time that had passed since we last saw him. The Mikkelsens really are amazing actors, all of them.
@@terriellis3697the live action actor does have prominent cheekbones just like rosario dawson has naturally large eyes. You're just expecting cartoonish features instead of expecting what those features look like in real life.
It's awful, Thrawn is poorly cast (go look-up who Thrawn is), acting is awful, plot is awful, story is dumb, Sabine is terrible.....
@@saintuk70Lars IS Thrawn!
@@saintuk70 you do realize that Lars is the voice actor for Thrawn in Rebels
Loving this series, but my only hope is that they give Ray a proper send off. He’s been a massive presence every time he graces the screen.
Maaann. This shit was filmed months before his death.
Gonna be interesting to see what they do
I have a theory that Baylon is going to die by either Ahsoka or Sabine or Ezra and Shin would be angry and ends up joining Thrawn to try and take over the Galaxy and Shin would try to get her revenge on her master death
Thrawn's entrance was a masterclass in villian introduction!
I think you’re right about the night sisters affecting the stormtroopers. The subtitles even call them “nighttroopers”
i think its because the nighsisters helped them survive all this time. and the crates being loaded about human sized. could be nightsisters in stasis.
several channels doing explaned vids miss or ignore the night troopers thing... almost as if they all share the breakdown information...
😲
@@cykesrevenge Haha, I'd say some of them are influencers bought and paid for by Disney. So anything beyond hype is out of their job description. Getting too close to spoilers/leaks would ruin the hype.
@cykesrevenge i thought that was so weird! How can you not think the Night Troopers are created by the Night Sisters???
All then chanting Thrawn, but looking like Zombie Troopers! It's obvious that they're either undead or green smoke like Marook, all from Night Sister Magik. And the bandits are former Storm Troopers that weren't down with the Get Down!
This is the best channel for these breakdowns. I love how you talk about the show in the wider context of film, literature, and culture, in addition to just nerding out about references.
There ain't nothing like these Screen Crush breakdowns for Ahsoka! I picked up on some history I felt they drew from and inspiration into this episode. I can definitely entertain the speculation. I was so pleased with this latest episode and am looking forward to where its all going next.
The way Huyang starts the old jedi story makes me feel like Huyang is the one narrating ALL these stories to us
I felt the same way! That would be a fun reveal. Like Korg in Thor lol
I would totally love to hear/see David Tennant voice a story series,like a tales of the Jedi or tales of the Galaxy. Do it as books or holos read by Huyang in the style of BBC'S bedtime story
@@Kathkira 100% YES
Big same. The somewhat unreliable narrator some used to think was C3PO
Damn I wish we could see years and years of Ray Stevenson playing Baylon Skoll. RIP
He absolutely fucking crushed it
@@dandork20 He really did.
Man, I just have to say I love your content. I love how you use Doug to kind of call out and draw attention to some of the sillier aspects of all this - but at the same time you try to retain some amount of excitement and interpret everything in the most charitable way because, deep down, you really love it despite being able to recognize its flaws. It's so refreshing because it's not just blind fanboy nonsense or blind hatred - but a measured and yet enthusiastic take on everything.
I look forward to these breakdowns almost as much as the actual episodes. Good work again SC!
Always felt like Ventress deserved some live action love .
She was a great character. 👍
I think the reason Sabine didn't want to mention the empire to ezra is because it would inevitably lead the conversation to thrawn and then she would have to tell him that she kinda undid everything he did.
Not only that her reasoning would be for what loneliness even with ahsoka at her side before she gave the map to Baylan I don’t he would’ve agreed with leaving ahsoka behind without knowing if she survived.
That was also my take on it when I watched that scene that's why she said she didn't want to ruin the moment talking about it.
It's definitely possible. My personal take was she simply wanted to enjoy a moment of happiness apart from the craziness that followed her there.
Excellent scene though. I love the actor playing Ezra. Ridiculously charismatic performer.
I’m really annoyed by Sabine’s character and the decisions she makes. Her character has been selfish from the start. And she hasn’t changed even up until episode 6 They want to make it seem like she’s a rebel.. Pun intended. But man she just makes decisions that irks me
Sabine is still red even in this episode's opening,I think she gets in a situation we're she gives I to her anger and get her powers in the force but in the darkside
The red wraps on Thrawns Troops looked more like further examples of exile taking its toll the armor has been damaged and worn so bad that they have to melt parts back together and bind the armor back on with the cloth and wraps provided by the native witches.
I agree. It is not indicated in any shape or form that these stormtroopers are dead in any way shape or form. Instead they look to be loyal devoted troopers whom take pride in maintaining their gear as best they can considering their 9 years of distant exile. It would lend more credit and aura to Thrawn to have them alive and not resurrected.
I am often hearing people say that the troopers are chanting Thrawns name. This is likely an honest mistake as what we are hearing is the thematic music score provided to lend gravitas to the scene.
The actual power of the Sisters of Dathomir might be more along the lines of manipulation of hyperspace as they are Force Wielders (At least in their original incarnation in the novels), as well as the ability to commune with the Force in ways the Jedi and Sith likely failed to or forbade anyone to do.
The episodes are long, just the way I like them. And I get some extra time with the show thanks to y'all, the Screen Crush crew. Amazing work on these videos, as always. Keep it up guys!
Something that I noticed was that Sabine was first relying on technology to find Ezra, but once that got destroyed, she was forced to use nature. She had to rely on the howler and the noti (turtle-people) to find him, kinda like how she is becoming more of a Jedi instead of just Mandalorian.
Great catch!
not only that she was fighting the bandits she tried to fight them using only her mandalorian weapons and she was just not getting anywhere with them. once she switched to using the lightsaber the battle quickly came to end. I espeically love that she even managed to deflect a shot with the lightsaber.
very true!
Am I wrong in thinking that the witch statues that are long and curved are carved out of giant ribs from the space whales! No one seemed to have mentioned this, I thought it was a nice touch, if I'm correct
I noticed Shin had a few moments where she seemed a little taken aback by both Baylan and Thrawn. I'm sensing that there may be more to their "light" vs "dark" colors than just costume design...
Yes. When Ohsoka told her "We can help you." Shin seemed tempted prior to running away. Now that Baylon has dispatched her, she's lost.
Thanks for such a thorough breakdown. You really know your stuff. And your pup is super cute
I actually just noticed something in a re-watch of episode 6. The scene where Thrawn appears and the Night troopers are chanting Thrawn, I just noticed that some of the chants are of the Isi-Zulu language here in South Africa. And Zahn used a few words from Zulu to make the Chiss language
Cool
That's what's up. Interesting info.
You do know that Kenobi means every elder in one African language right?
really?! huh!
@@sssnacksss it's actually the word obi which can mean heart as well or a central building but if also used to refer to an elder.
The creatures on the planet are not turtle people. They are more like hermit crabs. Which ties in well with Ezra being a young hermit when he first encountered them. And again when he stands out from them when Sabine arrives.
Everyone keeps calling them crabs or turtles or slugs, with their eyes on stalks and shells on their backs and in their house design I thought it was pretty obvious they were snails.
Glad I wasn’t the only one who saw that! They aren’t turtles, they’re far more reminiscent of hermit crabs.
Yes! Thank you! Haha it's been so annoying to see so many people say turtles when they are obviously based on crabs (hermit crabs)
Ngl I was worried how they were gonna portray ezra and thrawn but damn they actually did a good job especially thrawn I mean obviously because it's the actual voice actor.
Ryan, love what you and your manager do. Tying the reviews into history and religion to this degree improves on the concept of easter egg videos.
I need a scene where Thrawn and Hu yang take a moment and discuss the artistic significance of specific light sabers.
Another link between the force witches and the Fates is that the character names in the show, Klothow, Aktropaw, and Lakesis closely match the names of the Greek Fates, Clotho, Atropos, and Lachesis.
When Baylon is hunting Sabine and investigating her fight, I got serious Prince Humperdink tracking Wesley in Princess Bride vibes
Loved the episode - I still see Crowley from good omens, every time huyang speaks. David tennant has such a cool voice. Shin sticking around would be nice. And I have to say: thank you Filoni for all these cool and interesting women. Very happy for all the little girls having more characters to choose from ✨
The main Nightsister was played by Claudia Black. Known for Farscape, Stargate SG1, the Riddick film Pitch Black. Her Farscape costar Wayne Pygram played Tarkin at the end of Episode III, and Farscape was kicked out of soundstages after their first season for Star Wars episodes II and III.
She's also the voice of Morrigan from the Dragon Age games (as well as many other games).
The night sisters looked absolutely terrifying in live action 😂 such an awesome episode. Absolutely loving ahsoka, hope the end of the season lives up to the hype
Seeing the Chimaera was awesome, and I loved it!
19:25 😭😂 yall catch me so off guard with these! I can never tell
Whenever it’s coming
I dont think Baelan is looking for the path between worlds to change the past, I think hes looking for the origin of the Force so he can destroy it to end the eternal conflict between light side and dark side.
Interesting theory! I guess we'll see.
Wants to end the repeating cycle aka ragnarok
Baylan also said in an earlier episode that he was seeking "power... such as you've never seen", so whatever his plan to stop the cycle is, it ends with him on top.
Kreia approved
Baelan have some Darth Revan and Dart Kreia's vibe, Kreia wanted to destroy the force, because according to her, the force is the thing that manipulating our fate, therefore no one have completely free will, cuz the force can interferen.
When Thrawn is told that Ahsoka is coming, he says he wants to know everything about her including who was her master. Since he knows Anakin/Vader, knowing he was her master will give him a tactical advantage to use against her.
Except he doesn't realize how evolved Ahsoka is now and she's made peace with Anakin. He doesn't have that information so he cant use it. Which could be his downfall.
Why Vader is dead?
I’m not 100% sure that Ahsoka’s name was stated, but in Thrawn: Alliances when talking to Padmé (the same event he met Anakin Skywalker) she explains a maneuver Ahsoka invented and tells Thrawn about Anakin’s (at that point in time already) former apprentice, so that might be an oversight by the writers, or a way for Thrawn to find out without anybody telling him, since he later used the combat maneuver himself.
@@ahsokagirl3398 I do believe her name was mentioned just the one time during that scene, by Padme.
Another amazing recap/explanation!
That cute dog makes a great point about the characters that should be in this story!
When the mother said that she sensed a Jedi, isnt it possible that she mistakenly thought Sabine was a Jedi, even though it was actually Balin Skool because he used to be one and Sabine is not even close to being a Jedi.
She said "it reeks of Jedi" while referring to Sabine, which could just as easily mean they are sensing the close connections she has shared with jedi such as Ezra and Ahsoka
*Baylan Skoll
or it could the the fact that she IS a jedi padawan. dave filoni has even said that the central theme of this show is the master/padawan relationship and how it goes from Anakin to Ahsoka to Sabine. in fact pretty much everyone in universe acknowledge Sabine as a jedi. Baylan has referred to her as such multiple times and the great mothers very quickly referred to her as reeking of Jedi. its one thing to not like that she is being trained as a jedi but it is what not only the show has said but what the person who wrote the show has said as well.
i think maybe Balin was projecting on her? I mean he likely went through the "trials" at the temple so even though he abandoned it.. he's still a jedi. Sabine? not so much
@@tvd1188he's he went through the trials lines Anakin did but if Vader was standing there next to them I doubt they would have been looking at him and saying he tells like Jedi. The fact that even baylan acknowledges her as a Jedi and that everyone immediately turned to her the moment it was spoken correctly showed us the intent. Baylan was a Jedi that's true but after the fall he's become something else someone not a Jedi. I believe someone even commented that the great mothers were surprised when Thrawn acknowledged him as having been Jedi. He even tells shin he was trained to be a Jedi I've trained you to be more. The fact they freely use the dark side indicated that aren't Jedi or Jedi like.
I would suggest that Baylan Skoll didn't say he was present at the Jedi temple during the purge. His statement seemed to be more of a figurative reference to being alive when the entire Jedi Order came to an end.
This episode was badass! Great job, ScreenCrush! I love the humor of this channel 😂
When dave felloni was asked where ezra was at the star wars event debuting the trailer for ahsoke he replied with "far far away" the same title as this episode in which ezra appears
perfect casting for ezra loved it
Isn't it likely that the crates being loaded from the Nightsister's catacombs into Thrawn's ship are really caskets full of dead Nightsisters? The planet is not just a graveyard for the space whales; it's also a graveyard for Dathomiri. The sisters intend to reawaken the Dathomiri when they make it back to Republic Space. That's likely the deal Thrawn struck with them. They help him in exile and he takes them back with him.
I agree with you 💯💯💯 and it makes sense 🤓
Fuck yeah! I was saddened at the extinction the Nightsisters. I am glad they can be re-introduced into star wars
Great theory! Just like he says in the video 22:41
I would love to see them use this as a way of resurrecting Ahsoka's old revival and one time ally Asajj Ventress, who I don't think is dead-dead but in a form of stasis-hibernation. Their team-up, although short lived, was one of my favorite moments from the Clone Wars.
@@DrMario_666 Must have missed that.
I got some real Warhammer 40K vibes from this episode. Also seeing Thrawn again after all these years is so exciting.
A planet full of unsanctioned psykers!
I come here and pause it. Then I read the comments. I learn new stuff from you guys all the time but most of the stuff in breakdown everyone realizes. Thank you guys!! You are the best!
PS Ezra doesn’t suck
Dude every time I’m fully invested you get me with the “your mom” joke 😂 I’ll be genuinely excited to learn something or notice something I missed and then bam! Always a good laugh 😂
The trooper that sets up Sabine on the Howler tells her to "die well" and could be a reference to Maul saying "die well, mandalorian" when he abandons his troops at the siege of mandalore
Baylon skull will forever be missed from the star wars universe! What a part to play before passing away! Rest in peace ray Stevenson
The story building in this episode was exceptional.
Also, Ezra rules! He's not a Jedi, he's, as Vader puts it, a Child of the Force. Without most of the conditioning of the Jedi or the Sith. Drawing wisdom from both
I love your videos so much. They bring me right back to when I was eleven years old in 1995, reading every Star Wars novel and comic, and playing every Star Wars game I could play. The pure excitement and honest appreciation is a deeply-needed breath of fresh air. Love it.
Great job. Love the video. You are gifted sir.😊
I loved the pink Birkenstocks at the end because it was like a compromise lol
@screencrush Um, Actually.... The first appearance of a Witch of Dathomir is NOT "Courtship of Princess Leia" in '94, but in the TV movie, "Ewoks: The Battle for Endor" in '85.
The Witch in question is named Charal and is played by Sian Phillips.
The night troopers were soo freaking cool. Enoch looks amazing. I would’ve KILLED for a toy of him when I was younger. It also great to see the Shakespeare arch’s enter back into Star Wars. It’s like poetry, it rhymes
You know we are getting a figure of him. I am buying
Just like captain phasma. Maybe wait a bit and see what happens
I really liked the introduction of all the new creatures: the hound and the snail/crab creatures. I think the caravan style of their community is genius.
I also want to point out in the last episode of Rebels, Ezra has already seen this in a vision. He said, "Sabine will know what to do." Although she couldn't figure out what that was. I believe the "what to do" was her decision to betray Ashoka (Huyang said maybe to Sabine it was the only choice). It was her destiny.
Then, in this episode, he said, "I knew I could count on you." Clearly, he knew she would be the one to find him. I'm not sure many caught this.
Loved this episode Dave Filoni seems like hes the only person with power that legit cares about star wars to the point so much was practical and REAL THRAWN
What a great episode. Nice job Screencrush team and thanks for the hard work you guys put in to get these out so fast.
He comes up with the worst theories of all time
As a kid 30 years ago, I obsessed over the technical manual. So, seeing the Chimaera with only its emergency engines operational was great. Attention to detail.
Well done my friend. Keep up the good work.
Took me a 2nd rewatch of Ahsoka 6 episode to realize Thrawn's damaged flagship was imbedded with gold its infrastructure. Even his Night Troopers & Enoch are gold infused! 👀
There's a Japanese art form that is based on repairing cracks in pottery and figurines with gold. Thrawn has been shown to appreciate art.
Yes, Kintsugi!
The absence of Ashoka reminded me of the story of Jonah being thrown into the sea but being saved by the belly of the whale. He was only thrown into the sea because he had lost faith in the mission he inherited from god. Ashoka seeing Anakin the manifestation of a Star Wars god remind Ashoka of all she’s inherited from him and why she must not abandon Sabine like she left Anakin after she gets thrown into the ocean. She then ends up in a whales stomach and is absent for some time.
That's actually a dope ass take 😮❤
Love this reading of the episode
*God
He didn't lose faith, he hated Ninevah and did not think they deserved mercy so he flat out disobeyed Yahweh
@@jaybees5734 I didn’t say he lost faith I said he lost faith in the mission, I didn’t explain the details of his disdain for the people of Ninevah and gods mercy for the city because that’s where the relevancy/homage/metaphor ends.
I love your breakdowns! I never comment but I just wanted to thank you, your videos are always the next thing I watch after my fav shows :)
Good video. Very informative. You've done your research. 👍🏼👍🏼
“When I was a bit older than you are now, I watched everything I knew burn… I couldn’t make sense of it at the time.”
You can tell Baylon truly loved the Jedi Order at one point. And he was a general, and probably felt the same way about his battalion of clones that Ahsoka felt about hers. Order 66 broke him.
Losing George Raymond Stevenson is a tragedy for the franchise. One of the best characters ever conceived.
@@nTrylo So true. They definitely should do a few Tales of the Jedi episodes on Baylan to dive further into his story.
I'm fairly certain the 'thing' they're referring to in the new galaxy (that the sisters are running from and Baylen is heading toward) is Abeloth.
I love legends a lot but that might be one aspect of legends I would be ok not having brought to Disney canon
@alBoomer19 why though?
@@alBoomer19 They already brought in the Father, Brother, Sister stuff, why not bring in their ancient servant turned creepy pasta?

I love they just expanded the Universe ,This series is a masterpiece 9/10.
It’s amazing how Dave Filoni manages to sneak my mom in every episode of Ashoka
What did you think of the episode?
8/10 third best episode
It was awesome. But it was really dumb that Ezra was on this same planet just a few miles away, just hanging around for over a decade, and Thrawn this brilliant mastermind had no idea where he was? Giveme a break!
@@mattpiekosit does say that they never stay in one place but I see your point
@@mattpiekostrue, but is it any dumber than Obi Wan stashing Luke in Anakins moms house on Anakins home planet with Anakins step brother? Did Watto never once say “hey- I know that name”
just, so perfect. i shouted when ezra appeared behind sabine. thrawns entrance gave me CHILLS. also i really liked the space whelks.
Since seeing Ezra speak to Yoda in REBELS, I think Filoni has already retconned Yoda's comment to Kenobi on Dagobah when Luke left to go after Han and Leah, "No, there is another" , to be referencing Ezra - NOT Leah. Remember Luke and Ezra are only a day apart in age, so Ezra was around 14-15 (season3) when they spoke. So, considering the time the series ended and everything Ezra did in it, that would be around the same time Luke was just getting started with Kenobi's training, Age 19. I think Filoni has always planned for Ezra to be one of the greatest Jedi in SW lore and now he'll get to tell his story.
I love this theory
@@RiceFarmerEdits a nice theory, but it actually denigrates Leia which might be a big no no in this current genre of story making. But you are also hitting on something as a similar thought is mentioned in the Harry Potter series regarding Neville Longbottom.. Personally while I find Ezra to be an annoyance (admittedly Luke and Anakin were too at times lol) your theory holds great promise.
Thanks Ryan, you do an awesome job
Awesome breakdown as always.
They did amazing with thrawns entrance to live action!
Watching this episode of Ahsoka, I said, out loud, “He said the thing!” Made even better for me, as I am a huge fan of David Tennant. Also, I was unreasonably overcome with emotion when Ezra was revealed - I didn’t realise how invested I was in Sabine finding him, until it happened. I initially thought that he was going to be the trooper with the gold mask, until this was quickly refuted in the show.
Still, with every passing episode, I am convincing the title of the show, “Ahsoka”, is just wrong, given how much it spends on main characters from Rebels. It would have been better served being a called “Rebels”, “Fulcrum”, “Ghost Crew”, or something that ties Ahsoka and the Rebels characters together. Maybe “Ahsoka and the crew of the Ghost”? We can workshop it… :)
Cheers,
Honestly, I think Disney only named the show Ahsoka because of her popularity and name recognition. Perhaps other titles wouldn't draw enough interest or attention.
Loved your use of the phrase 'the scottish play'....Very important!....
Your Mom! Gets me every time . LOVE YOU
I would LOVE it if The Mother Abeloth is whats calling Balin there & the reason why the witches hate the Jedi is bc thats where they locked her away which is why they're in a hurry to get the hell out of there
I was so disappointed when this episode ended. I was helping my son with a science project and suddenly the credits were rolling. I wasn’t ready for it to be over.
the gta shout out at the end is a cherry on top.
Thanks for the bits of my favourite MCU film in this video
When you slowed down the clip of Sabine fighting the raiders with her lightsaber, there is clearly a figure, or figures, camouflaged standing in the foreground watching her fight - my best guess is force-ghosts are watching over her. They didn’t appear until she started using her lightsaber.
Pretty sure that's just tall grass, not force ghosts.
Agreed, that's just grass, my dude.
Force grass
Regarding the lost Roman legion, it refers to the Ninth Legion. There was a book called The Eagle of the Ninth and a few years ago there were two Hollywood films about it too.
Cool that he mentioned Serpent Mound. I’ve been there.
Didn't expect Serpent Mound to get a mention in a Star Wars video.
Fun fact: it sits right on the edge of a massive crater from an asteroid impact long ago. Also, there's many other similar mounds around the area that never gained the same notoriety given the forestation of the area since the mounds were built.
Can't wait to see more of Thrawn in action
I hope you’re right about the cameos, it’d be so cool to see Luke alongside Cal Kestis and Ezra.
I like that ryan puts up magic the gathering up at 7:46 my favourite trading card game
I personally think hyperspace looks different with the purgil because it’s natural travel vs mechanical travel. Nature vs the Machine is a common theme in Star Wars.
Can’t wait to see how this epic story unfolds! This episode was awesome for a creature lover like me
6:03 Nice to see one of my favorite places get a shoutout!
Thanks Ryan!
Here’s my crazy fan theory about Enoch. Firstly, Enoch's helmet also has a modified rebreather like Rex did with his clone trooper helmet. We've yet to see any helmet like this. (More clone style.) Also, Commander Cody stayed with the Empire after order 66. He was amongst his troops and then was no more. Thrawn saw his loyalty to the empire and renamed him Enoch which means dedicated, trained and disciplined. I would say for you to turn on your brothers and the republic that shows dedication. Secondly, even crazier I would love to see an original Dathomirian Zabrak warrior in that stormtrooper armor but still able to use the force like a night sister, would or Maul. Filoni loved Maul, and so did the fans. It would be an homage to bring a force wielding Zabrak back. He also has a double red empire insignia on his helmet that remind me of horns. Lastly, Thrawn sent away a human named Eli Vanto to help with the chiss ascendancy. I don’t know how he could connect into the situation, but he was Thrawn’s number 2. And I couldn’t help but thinking of Eli when he said Enoch, which, if we’re going off of biblical terms, which Dave Filoni loves to do, Elijah and Enoch both ascended to heaven and were no more. In the book’s Eli mysteriously vanished from the empire. As you say "He walked the Earth and then was no more, God took him." To these troops, Thrawn is their God. Enoch’s book was also removed from the Bible. It's poetry, it repeats itself. Also the red and black clothing the night sisters wear are very reminiscent of the first orders red and black flag, the final order's Sith troopers armor, and even Palpatine was garbed in red and black. Maybe Thrawn's return with the night sisters was the key to unlocking Moff Gideon's force sensitive cloning process and as to why his fleet was so massive, thousands raised from the dead or cloned in secrecy.
P.s. When Eli was sent to the Chiss ascendancy they shortened his name from Eli Vanto to Ivant because they could not pronounce his name correctly, same as did Thrawn with his name so others could pronounce it. Could Enoch be a shortened surname, based on the Chiss using the last letter of the first name and the first 4 of last name, as the Chiss did with his original #2? Ivant and Enoch both 5 letters... Thrawn trying to cling onto some Chiss pride when he hasn't seen them in so long.
Quick note: in Biblical history, Elijah loved thousands of years after Enoch.
@@boycebulldogThe actual connection between Elijah and Enoch is that both are taken to God before they died. Elijah in a flaming chariot!
Also, Eli is not legends. That’s from the newer Thrawn trilogy which is indeed canon
@@boycebulldog sorry fixed
@@Dartanian3000 exactly right, I thought it was legends, read too many to count. My mistake. Fixed!
Screencrush>new rockstars for breakdowns
I think it's a push on most things except Ashoka, nee Rockstar break downs have been horrible
*…Nah. SC hates on my boy Ezra too much.😒*
5:37 that Apple TV version of the “Scottish play” is amazing.
+1 for Ryan Arey being able to finish his own video. V proud of you.
