If Han Solo will appear in live-action again, I don't think we should discount Alden Ehrenreich appearing as the younger version (eras of the prequel and OG trilogies). I do think if they are going to have main characters play part in stories, more doors should open up about simply casting younger looking actors, instead of relying on the de-aging tech.

Molly doing the editing is the best thing that’s happened to this channel

Q&A: Do you suppose that Gungi's appearance in The Bad Batch could involve the early days or even the formation of the Path, as was later seen in the Kenobi show? That seems like the kind of thing the Batch would get involved in.

Helio’s wittle tail poking out from under the table 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Holy hell, you both literally have a t-shirt for all occasions. Impressive!

I’m looking forward to the new SW: Jedi Survivor, but the cost is… interesting. It’s £70 here in the UK ($85.80 US) for the standard PS5 version as a pre-order, or £90 ($110.34 US) for the deluxe version, which is a bloody crazy price!

It's been heavily implied by developers that the new character/ villain is a fallen high republic Era Jedi. They tweeted about his Gold Robes.. and we know the High republic Era Jedi have gold and white ceremonial robes. I really hope we get to explore high republic outposts and that's how he gets the cross guard.

I do think it would be cool if Cal got some Nightsister magic powers as he learns more about non-Jedi Force philosophy

I’m pretty sure Merrin’s voice actor posted some photos on some social media of her doing mo-cap for what is presumably Survivor.

Something big enough to make Rex stand down would be having to kill Cody himself to protect their brothers.
Having Cody die - would hurt, but they've both seen hundreds if not thousands of their brothers die and they simply carry on. But to have to do the deed himself because Cody chose the Empire over the Clones and the idea of restoring the Republic they were created to defend (as far as they know)? That might break him.

Q&A: If Threepio can speak 6 million forms of communication, then why does he always communicate with Artoo in Basic?

Seeing Hilo pop his head up while wagging his tail on both sides of the desk = 🥰🥰. Please tell Hilo that he's a good boy.

Q&A: Do you think we'll see Marion in Dial of Destiny?I feel like not enough people are talking about her. Indy is wearing a wedding ring so they probably stayed married but not having seen her in the trailer I'm afraid that she'll have died between films like they did with Sean Connery

Q&A: Yoda is the first to name ‘The Clone War’. How do you think him naming it caught on and became the official name for the conflict in-universe?

[DigiPen]

Q&A: Since the new The Bad Batch Season 2 Trailer just dropped couple of days ago, if all the still active The Bad Batch members encounter Palpatine. Do you think we could see Darth Vader helps Palpatine and Hunter fight against Darth Vader with Knives vs Lightsaber Combat and the entire Bad Batch first realizes that the Empire being run by the Sith Lord that were fight against in The Clone Wars?

I think something that might be really cool is if Thrawn is built up as the “big” villain, but it turns out after we meet thrawn again that he is trying to stop something coming from the Unknown regions, something that endangers the Chiss as well as the Empire. (I’ve read Thrawn and Thrawn Alliances but haven’t read the rest of the Thrawn book, I’m getting there lol) and I think that Thrawn should 100% remain a villain, he’s done horrible things, but there could be a villain and hero have to team up against a greater threat before they face each other thing happening

I hope we get some confirmation that she and Greez are still around and are going to be in the game in large roles. We already know Cere is back but it would be nice to know we are going to get the whole crew back, especially since it seems everyone universally wants to spend more time with Merrin in this game because of how late she joined as an ally last game. Many, myself included, have said their one real criticism of JFO was that we don't get to spend much time with Merrin after she joins because it happens right at the end of the game. They have made reference to "the whole crew" talking about the game but it has also been very ambiguous to the point where I'm actually worried so it would be nice to have something a little more solid and I really hope Merrin is a big part of the game. For as little time as we got, she was one of the first game's best characters so I want more of her

[scifiguy]

I'd always imagined Benedict Cumberbatch as someone that would make a good live-action Thrawn.
Either that, or a live-action Prince Xizor or Exar Kun.

I don't want to break Molly's heart, but much as Alex was talking about sending Jedi like Cal Kestiss away, they HAVE to have some what to have gotten rid of the Jedi, including the Younglings. And while it wasn't graphic, they didn't pull that punch in "Revenge of the Sith" and they didn't hesitate showing the temple attack in "Obi-Wan Kenobi." So, all that being said, yeah, I think the Younglings are with the Force now.

[geekstudios]

I think they should use a mechanic similar to the guardians of the galaxy game with Merrin (or other “teammates”) use they for special abilities like trapping enemies in the ground or shooting magik that deals explosive damage to a lot of enemies. The controller is already so crowded and that’s not even including the new mechanics we see but that’s a great way to use them and their abilities for stuff Cal could never do

[NTC_Overwatch]

I think my dream for Jedi Survivor (which I know isn't happening/wouldn't happen) would have been to have a Dishonored 2 style system where at the beginning of the game, you choose to play as either Cal or Merrin, and the flavor for the two is slightly different as a result. All the abilities would let you do the same thing (Push, Pull, etc.) but how they look would be different. It would make sense for them both to have the same lightsaber technique, since Cal would be the one to teach Merrin, but their Force and Nightsister magic having the same results with a different look would be really cool.
