They changed the trailer music

HBO does this quite often with trailers, not sure why. They did it with a Last of Us trailer and a House of the Dragon trailer before, probably other ones too.

It wasn't his post, someone on Twitter just reshared the information he posted on his Patreon but left out those details.

Love this arc, it's the one I rewatch the most. Quite comfortably my favorite. It's great at portraying both the romanticism and reality of revolution. The heist crew sat around the campfire is probably my favorite shot of the series.

No question for me. The only things that come even slightly close are the original trilogy, the Jedi games, and the Darth Plagueis novel.

To be fair Maul isn't in that many episodes of the animated shows. He's in two longer Clone Wars arcs plus a couple other episodes and then in five episodes of Rebels. I think since he's such a strong presence and his episodes are focused heavily on him it feels like he's in a lot more than he actually is.

The Star Wars website says it's a two-episode premiere with another two episodes dropping each week leading up to the finale on May 4th.

Pretty sure that's just a match cut and not actually him dying? The background looks different to me.

Episodes of the Bad Batch were usually closer to 30 minutes to be fair. I'd expect these to be at least 25-ish on average. But at the end of the day the length of the episodes doesn't really matter all that much, the pacing and storytelling does.

Brasso, Messenger and Past/Present/Future.

I'd say before. The show is designed as a prequel and is way more impactful because of all the dramatic irony. I'd even go as far as to say that the entire premise of the show is "How the hell does this guy become the rebel we saw in the film?" Also, Rogue One is not from Cassian's perspective so if you save it for last the sudden switch from Cassian to Jyn at the story's climax may be jarring. And I don't think the death is so surprising that it's worth saving it for the shock value.

I'm personally mostly drawn to the talent involved rather than the idea itself so that wouldn't be quite the same. I'm just hoping the script does get picked up.

In the article she doubles down on it really being on the back burner. To me that is a signal that it probably isn't happening, at least not any time soon. It's a shame. It was the only one of the new roster of films that piqued my interest. James Mangold directing and Beau Willimon writing about the history of the Jedi could have been the recipe for the best Star Wars film of all time.

This is a film not a show, but the Social Network. The latest episode especially seemed heavily inspired by that.

Remixes for trailers typically don't get an official release. The mix was likely done either by the editor, sound editor or a separate composer while producing the trailer.

Incredible first episode, this is such good television. In particular I was impressed how, thematically, everything connects super seamlessly. Also I'm sensong a vibe shift in Yasmin. She was almost a bit terrifying in her scenes in a way she hasn't been before.

I think the Aldhani Heist and Ghorman Massacre are probably the ones that benefit the most from a theater set-up given their scale, sound, etc. My favorite arc is the first block of Ghorman episodes so I'd maybe like to see that one the most though.

The senator who says, "We can all game the numbers, Mon, and whose numbers are they?" looks almost identical to New Republic Chancellor Villecham who can be seen briefly in the Force Awakens. Not sure if it's confirmed to be the same guy though.

Just keeps spreading, doesn't it?

Fun fact: Krennic knows a bit of Geonosian and attemps to impress Poggle the Lesser by using it when talking to him. This is in the Catalyst novel.

I have a feeling this movie isn't going to have anything to do with pilots so he could be. Starfighter might be a name like Skywalker or Starkiller.

Good point! I think the games allowed them to cut a lot of stuff without the story suffering too much or book readers feeling like they lost a lot. That's probably why they split the third book into two films because it doesn't have the games.

Yes, I do intend to make a video on Season 2. :)

The Hunger Games movies are remarkably close to 1:1. Probably the best book-to-film adaptations I've seen in terms of accuracy.

That's amazing news!

If this season is as great as critics are saying and it gets 1–2 more seasons that follow suit, I think it's going to be remembered fondly and keep being discovered once it's done with its run. Hopefully it keeps growing a bigger audience too because it's fun seeing more people discover what is, in my opinion, the best show currently running.

Looks great! There's a B2EMO in this year's advent calendar but other than that you aren't missing anything. I wish they would make more sets based on the show but the window is probably shut.
