99 from the Clone Wars show reminds me of the groundskeeper from Star Trek, Mr Boothby. Many looked to that man for wisdom and inspiration while many were still training to become a Starfleet officer (similar to how 99''s lessons & later sacrifice showed the best traits of being a clone)

Clone 99 is proof kaminoans weren't as cold hearted as it seems. Instead of destroying what they would consider defective property, they give 99 clothes, a job, and food. Would have been far cheaper to kill him and let droids do the cleaning, but they kept a living being around and gave him a reason to live, which in the long run he died doing exactly what he was made for, being a soldier and fighting to protect his home and his family
@stop86287 ай бұрын
When the Shak Ti and the other Jedi Generals started becoming more involved on Kamino they asked the Kaminoans to stop terminating defective clones because the Jedi valued Life. Also the same thing happened when the Mando bounty hunters started training the 1st Arc troopers, the Kaminos where going to terminate them because they were too independent but they were saved.
@TeamValkyrie20237 ай бұрын
@@stop8628 is there proof this is why they stopped killing defective clones or is this just deduction based on actions taken during the series? I've never seen anything in cannon that states the jedi specifically asked the kaminoans to change. Also, Nala se protected omega without being coerced by a jedi and it wasn't just to protect her science. She could have destroyed everything any time she wanted. Had many opportunities to blow up her lab. I mean they were wanting to kill 5s to figure out what was wrong with his inhibitor chip and the only thing that stopped them was a logical argument from shak ti that technically the clones were property of the republic, not an appeal to their value of life

i have to admit it. out of all the clones that died in the clones wars, 99 was perhaps the most legendary. because of his sacrifice, a group of mutated CC's adopted his name into their culture and even plans. 99 was even responsible for domino squad. whenever the empire said the name 'clone force 99' i feel like 99 still is alive. Echo was also very close to 99, so him joining the bad batch was him realizing he wasnt so different after all! and when tech said plan 99. i knew what it meant and that was the true kicker. sacrifice. RIP Tech and 99. Edit: CT99's not CCs. my bad.

I'm willing to bet that at the time, Wrecker hadn't memorised the plans so he just went with Plan 7 because it was the first number that came to mind, but he got better at keeping up with them as time went on and made it a personal goal to memorise all of them beyond just the most important ones (particularly once Tech died), which is why when Crosshair asks him if he remembers Plan 55 later, Wrecker scours his mental list and is able to correctly recall which one he is.

I would want your opinion on an animated series surrounding Ventress, and later her and Quinlan. I don't know if you are going to read this, but if other people like the idea give it a like so that Allen has a chance to see it. I would like a 3 Season animated series surrounding Ventress. The first season could be centered around her and Dooku, early Clone Wars, etc; it could be centered around her fall to the dark side, and in that season we could maybe get her fight with Anakin and show how Anakin got the scar (I know that the Star Wars: The Clone Wars 2D covered this fight, but I would be cool to see it again with better animation). The second season could cover Dark Disciple, and show all the events surrounding the novel. The third season could expand on the Hidden Path with her and Quinlan as the leads. Another animated series surrounding the clones, mainly Rex, Wolf and Gregor, could start to lay the "path" for the third season, and then when the show gets to that point the could expand more on it. But mainly have the Clone series as that, a clone series, expanding on the work of Captain Rex in the Bad Batch, showing him and the crew saving clones and fighting the empire. Having this series connect with the third season of Ventress, could justify him and Vader seeing each other. My favorite character is Vader, I would love to see him in more stuff, but I understand why they don't, Vader is one of the strongest force users, and having him chasing a few rogue clones would not be a job for him, but having Quinlan, a jedi master and Ventress, an ex sith apprentice, apprentice to Count Dooku himself, could more than justify Vader being the main bad with some of the Inquisitors. Most of the jedi should be dead by the events of Episode 4 so the series could go as dark as it wants killing order 66 survivors that join Quinlan and Ventress. It really has the potencial, IMO, of being a really good series. Any opinions? I don't know if it deserves a whole video from you, but maybe you could talk about the structure and what would you like to see. It hits all the boxes It would be a female lead, so Disney may be more inclined to produce it. Ventress is a fan favorite and so it's Dooku, the first season could also continue a little bit the the Dooku arc on Tales of the Jedi. It would be centered around force users so there would be tons of lightsaber fights They could bring fan favorites in each season, and it would make every sense to do so. We could finally see a force user that has a balance between the light and the dark side, not afraid to tap on either one. VADER

I think the Bad Batch was never meant to be a "chaos squad" or anything. They're not wild cards. They're just mutated and as such different to their brothers, so they have particular sets of skills that a regular clone squad couldn't do. They had a walking computer wizard with Tech, someone with superhuman tracking skills and agility with Hunter, someone with pinpoint accurate aim with Crosshair and someone who can muscle his way into anything and lift very heavy stuff with Wrecker. Those special skills probably allowed them to devise these special Orders to begin with. Like the "Crosshair connects two tanks and Wrecker shoves them down a slope" example you bring up in the intro. Normal Clone Squad wouldn't be able to do that, probably, because they'd need 2-4 Clones to push these tanks. Wrecker does that by himself. So such a tactic wouldn't "fly" with other squads to begin with. Hence why the Bad Batch was so good. Less of a chaos squad that does shenanigans and more of a highly specialised squad with out-of-the-box plans.
