While big named directors and studio chiefs who could care less about the quality of the story were breaking fans hearts someone was writing great Star War stories only it was animated and that caused people to see it as a childs show, when it was like a long dress rehearsal for the time we are living now.... Dave Filoni kept hope alive until finally someone was smart enough to let him bring his characters to life. Showing, that his stories were always great and for all the flash and the massive effects budget, that the magic of Star Wars is not in the effects or alien setting, but in the story.

One little detail of if you know you know: even though star wars lazer weapons can kinda shoot infinitely, Cad Bane shot 5 shots. Back in the era of westerns with 6 rounds revolvers, they are commonly only loaded with 5 shots to prevent misfiring (one empty chamber so the hammer has no bullet to hit). This telegraphs to people who don't know who Cad is, that he is highly proficient and dangerous (if they know westerns).

1. I only knew of Cad Bane from peripheral information, never watched Clone Wars, and I still shat myself when I saw his silhouette on the horizon. His voice sent a chill down my spine and the reveal of his eyes ran my blood frigid. PERFECT way to intro a character. 2. I almost expected Vanth to die, until I saw where the blaster bolt landed and breathed a HUGE sigh of relief. Bane put one in Vanth's shooting arm to neutralize him as a threat, whereas he GUNNED. DOWN. THAT. DEPUTY. If that had been a six-gun in his hand it'd be empty. The Marshall was a warning. The deputy was a message. Just my take on it. :)

I've gotta say, I absolutely love Cad Bane's entrance as it fully preserves his identity as a terrifying legend more than a person, but the attention to detail gets me most. The deputy is so worked up that he tries to draw his gun first, causing Cobb to look away from Cad and give him the opportunity to shoot him before the deputy. The deputy should've managed to at least take his gun out of its holster, but he didn't remove the thumb break due to the tension of the scene and Bane noticed as much, essentially reinforcing his confidence that he would be able to take both of them on in a quickdraw. And what do you know, the Deputy doesn't manage to even clear leather before getting blasted
