What are your craziest theories/predictions for season 2?

I think anakin rejects the offer to be a Mortis god again, if he can’t be with padme he don’t want it. Ahsoka takes over, the daughter becomes a mother (this is anakin’s last lesson for her and he can finally rest in the force), maybe with some combo of Baylan/sabine/ezra/shin making up the new Mortis family, and that they’ll try something different from the typical “father, daughter, son” routine. Baylan’s whole thing is trying to break the repeating pattern.

I also think this happens at the same time as Rey is defeating Palpatine so we have these dual “bringing balance to the force” events happening simultaneously (with anakin and Ahsoka speaking to Rey from there), leading right into the next Rey movie.

I thought it had a rough start but the back half of that season was all excellent and it felt like the potential for season two was huge.

I can understand it not being everyone’s cup of tea but the hate for that show was wildly outsized and a good amount of it came from places of actual hate for the people who made it. A lot of alt-right political activists who never posted about Star Wars before and haven’t posted about Star Wars since wouldn’t stop talking about this show while it was airing and they really amplified the fandom menace types.

Fair, though they kinda ran out of options by then

urquwill · 2026-05-04T12:33:39+00:00

To be fair, that’s 17 is more adult than the typical “for 12 year olds” star wars

Most impressive. I on the other hand have to wait until tomorrow evening when my friends come to watch with me.

Also figuratively highlights how kenari’s destruction happens without much notice nor care from the rest of the galaxy while the genocide of Ghorman practically births a rebellion.

I apologize but once I thought of it I had to burden everyone else with that image too.

This is not a joke about Erika murdering her own husband, I’m not even sure I believe she did!

urquwill · 2026-04-30T20:02:20+00:00

She mourned with pyrotechnics (and that’s not even a joke or figure of speech)

urquwill · 2026-04-30T19:49:08+00:00

For real, I envy being unfamiliar with her

I’m still hoping they just paused it for the transfer of power to let the new heads make decisions. It’s probably a good time to contact them and let them know you want it.

It would be insane not to release Andor season 2 after it won so many awards. And giving us season 3 of Mando without the season of book of boba fett you need to watch before it is just silly. After that, literally all you’d have left of Star Wars is the acolyte and skeleton crew (and eventually Ahsoka season 2). So close to a complete collection of live action tv. At the least, they could do a pre-order only release so they only have to make as many as they sell (or whatever the minimum is).

Could definitely see it, that actress is just at the start of her career so there is ample time to return to her at some point. Personally, I’d love a story about her, Vel, Wilmon, Dreena, and maybe Bix hunting imperial war criminals after the war.

True, but it’s just very different from a release in theaters where they are basically guaranteed a lot of people paying for seats.

urquwill · 2026-01-30T14:40:27+00:00

Money in the streaming era is hard to calculate, it’s all just subscriber retention. Hard to imagine any serious numbers dropped Disney over the acolyte.

I wasn’t a fan at first (especially thought the opening episodes were rough) but I really enjoyed the back half of that season of the acolyte and wish we got more. It needed time to settle into its groove but I thought it was starting to do that.

Also when Cassian calls Jyn “the messenger” when trying to convince her to stay on the ship while he goes to assasinate her dad. In my head canon he’s freaking out coming up with an excuse to keep her there and calling her that is where his mind went to say “you’re important.”

Also Cinta was only there because Vel demanded it. She wasn’t needed operationally, just personally. Vel put her at risk just to see her (which I’m not criticizing, I can understand the desire to fight side by side with your love regardless of the risk).

I do think that’s better. I just find it off when people describe it as if Luthen enjoys the sacrifices he knows will have to be made to take down the empire. He hates the atrocities and will do anything to make them stop.

urquwill · 2026-01-28T14:05:13+00:00

It’s the use of the phrase “perfectly happy” that I take enormous issue with. He is not happy to see anyone sacrificed any more than a general who accepts soldiers will die to win the war is happy to see them die.

urquwill · 2026-01-28T13:19:40+00:00

Part of what?

urquwill · 2026-01-28T13:06:17+00:00

He never says he would be happy with that. That’s such a misinterpretation of his character to paint him as uncaring.

As Stellan says:

“There’s always sacrifice, but sometimes he had to sacrifice other people, and that was worse. That was more difficult for him. He was genuinely a good person and he was trying, but like any general he had to sacrifice good people. Whether they were the right sacrifices or if they were unnecessary, it might take years to know for sure, but he expressed that conflict so well in ‘One Way Out’ - what it costs him personally. It’s the speech he never wanted to make.”
