[@TheOnlyHawkeye666]

God, Lars Mikkelsen is SOOOOOOOOO damn good at Thrawn. He conveys the silent rage behind the mind of control and poise, every word sounds like a statement more than anything. And the Night Troopers chanting "Thrawn" was an amazing intro

[@jeremy1860]

You know what I love most about these videos? All the time nowadays I'm hearing news of people growing tired with franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, with commentators saying they've "lost their way" or that fans are angry and other general stuff like that. But then I watch these reaction compilations, and all I see is continued love and excitement for those things. I'm not just being told about hypothetical unhappy crowds, I'm seeing real people with names and faces who just love what they're watching. And that kind of positivity paints a much more believable and much happier picture than what all those naysayers keep saying 😊

[@metacob]

I never got into Star Wars or Marvel etc "deeply", but I've watched most of it and enjoyed it. I hardly remember what happened in the sequels, although let's be honest, there was way too much pressure from all sides to make anything good. But I've also been watching Mandalorian and Ahsoka and I don't really see the problem! I'm not expecting The Godfather or Citizen Kane or whatever when I'm watching Star Wars, I want a good space opera that makes me feel something, and this delivers! I haven't watched the animated shows because I was way too old for them when they came out, but now I might try watching them anyway because of the world-building. You're right, it's a joy to see actual fans having fun with this instead of being all snooty because they grew out of their favorite thing and never realized that it's still good, it's just not for them anymore.

[@pickleboy6059]

As long as kathleen doesn’t change too many things, it’s a good star wars cause then it’s actually star wars and not “female is force” wars We saw how her influence in boba fett really degraded the show and character and the only good parts are when Dave’s character, mando showed up. And we saw how Kathleen disliked Dave’s vision of starwars to the point of firing one of his characters, and trying to force some of her own visions Into the mando era. Luckily Disney was getting fed up with Kathleen and essentially told her stfu and let Dave work since his vision is what the fan base actual wants and the numbers and approval ratings don’t lie.

[@griffinsummoner]

One thing I haven't seen anybody comment on is the distinction between Thrawn and his troopers. While they've had to improvise materials and patch their armor, his uniform is pristine. Now, maybe it just was easier for them to fabricate the cloth, but it really shows where Thrawn's priority has been: the best for him and just enough for his army.

[@MrZeeks]

Wym? His clothes are a tiny but ripped

[@moe5020]

i doubt it, he probably just takes obsessively good care of his uniform more so then anyone else and stays in the Star Destroyer most of the time. I really doubt thrawn being who he is would choose vanity over giving his soldiers better armor and equipment.

Thrawn and Ezra were absolutely perfect!!! This was probably my favorite episode though by a very small margin. I still can’t believe we have live action Thrawn back in the known galaxy!

Man, Ray Stevenson is the greatest. A powerful yet brilliant presence -- even more so than Thrawn, if I may say so. His performance almost feels Shakespearean.

[@erikolson4148]

When I first saw the Howler, I noticed that it almost resembles a Loth Wolf 🐺, and the end credits do show what looks like a cave painting of a Loth Wolf or a Howler before they show cave paintings of the Purrgil 🤔. Loth Wolves are strongly connected to the Force, capable of limited speech, and can traverse the World Between Worlds to get to different places on Lothal very quickly. I wonder if the Howlers are similar 🤔? (Yes, I am well aware of Dave Filoni's fondness for wolves 😅.)

[@colleens1107]

I just love how extra Thrawn is. The giant sigil painted on the Chimaera, having all the storm troopers line up and chanting his name. He’s such a diva and I’m here for it. I do agree with the guy who said “Elon musk looking ass.” The hair….oh the hair. But Lars rocked it

Man, I can’t wait for the reaction for part 8.

[@TheTrytix]

I love the idea of WHY Thrawn let's Sabine go. Sure, it's to honor Baylan's deal with her and all that... But some people might think "What? Letting her go? Why not keep her a prisoner? Thrawn's not THAT dumb, right?" And you'd be right. Letting Sabine go to search for Ezra accomplishes two things for Thrawn. 1. Trough Sabine, Thrawn could find Ezra and potentially take them both out, that's why he sends Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati after them. But more importantly... 2. It prevents any other people who followed Sabine, to go to Thrawn's location. Thrawn knows Rebels have friends always rushing to the rescue, and he's seen some things that defy convention and logic, so as an added precaution, sending Sabine to look for Ezra puts Sabine SO far away that if anyone came to look for her, they too would be INSANELY far away from Thrawn, giving Thrawn the ONE resource he needs most of all... Time. And you might think, why doesn't Thrawn send his entire army out to defeat Sabine and Ezra? Well, he does... He sends a portion of his troops that he can manage to send as he's low on manpower and resources. Those troops where sent to bolster up the forces of Baylan and Shin when they arrived to take care of Sabine and Ezra as well as potentially take out Ahsoka as well. But due to Baylan ditching everyone, Shin and the stormtroopers would not be enough to take on the three Rebels, and as such Thrawn returns his men as not to waste more than necessary. The TIE Interceptors Thrawn sends after them is again also meant to slow them down. Thrawn is doing what he can to slow them down, time is the ONLY concern Thrawn has. The Stormtroopers at the base of the tower as well as Morgan Elsbeth and the Death Troopers on top are additional hindrances to his enemies. Thrawn was just barely able to escape, going against an opponent as unpredictable, stubborn and dangerous as Ahsoka Tano made Thrawn's objective incredibly tough to reach, but he was able to at the end. Thrawn is a genius. What adversaries he was faced with made his goal almost impossible to reach, yet he did it anyways.

[@ladyhotep5189]

RIGHT???!!!! IT WAS WEIRD AF. they should've ran to each other and she should've jumped on his ass or something 😂😂😂

[@DJHolte]

Well, they've been apart for a longer period of time than between now (2023) and when Rebels aired (c. 2017). Sources I read say it's been between 9 and 12 years that have passed since Ezra and Thrawn took a magic carpet ride together with the purgill. So they've had some time to accept the situation. When they reunited, I also think Sabine defaulted to her previous way of interacting with Ezra, which was very much 'sarcastic friend' who knew Ezra had a thing for her but wasn't going to encourage him in any way. Ezra, it seems, has become more zen-like in his isolation, and so he is no longer the little puppy dog trying to get attention from her.

[@moe5020]

The acting sucks in general.

[@liamphibia]

Hardcore Agree. Could have tweaked it a little bit to make it more emotional and heartwarming. Instead what we got was a "hey how's it going?"
