I liked the part where he blocked lasers with his sword.

Way cool.

 

[nush]

So will this be one of those shows focusing on a villain where:
- We learn they aren't actually that bad and are mostly misunderstood.
- They take a beloved badass character and emasculate him by making him non threatening and lame.

The self insertion of the female fantasy of tuning a bad boy good?

and when she does that she looses interest because he's no longer a bad boy.

No doubt thats what they are gonna do (though maybe more of a "you are the daughter I never had" route.

Which is fine for a dramatic character arc, but for DARTH MAUL? I can see Vader finally caving but damn if all it takes to swing Sith Lords back to the light side is a little TLC and a hug.....come on, really?

Emilia Clarkes character from Solo????

I just hope it is it's own show and not full of tie-ins to other shows, especially nothing Ahsoka related (though I highly suspect this will).

One of the few good things about Solo and funny enough she wasn't my type until I saw her in that movie lol

 

[Ozzie666]

It looks good and on point. Looking forward to this.

The animation and style is fantastic looking. And of course everyone's favourite Birdman inquisitor and that poor guy from Ahsoka. Sam does an amazing Maul voice.

Another Disney Star Wars series that's just gonna get mauled.

 

[Toons]

Love it.

Cannot wait.

 

[Shubh_C63]

The magic is gone. Went away couple of years ago.

 

[Grenseal]

Needs more of this guy

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

Somehow, maul has returned.

At least this time we have a half-understanding why.

 

[Represent.]

Wow, this may be the best looking animated show I've ever seen. That animation is phenomenal

 

[OccasionalPoster]

2026 is going to go down in the record books for media.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

When it comes to Star Wars this year, I haven't been this excited when it came to the animated stuff before Disney bought the IP. I'm very happy with the way this show looks and I hope this turns out great

 

[DreamcastSkies]

Between the smart idea of "retcon"ing his TPM death, and his effective use in TCW, I think Maul has blossomed into one of the best characters in Star Wars. He just perseveres. He never quits. He always rises up. It's a drive you can't help but respect. I love the premise of this series and I'm excited to see his clashes with the empire.

[DreamcastSkies]

I think this looks awesome. I think Maul grew into one of the more compelling characters in Star Wars. He never quits.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

It's crazy how this looks 15x more interesting than Andor.

Another Soldier Down

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

I'd rather keep this as a memory.

So as not to spoil what a memory I have of such a well-developed character.

Right in the eggs of Qui-Gon

Star wars real saga is...
create great concepts and destroy it by over explanation

 

[jason10mm]

So I watched the first ep. Fairly solid police/crime drama. The CG is pretty good, they have really evolved in detail and less of that "wooden puppet" look it once had. But the animation is pretty stiff and hasn't kept up in parts. Pretty gritty, lots of death, so it's more along the lines of Bad Batch than Rebels in tone, if not even more mature.

He's one of my favorite characters. In fact, most of my favorites are Sith. I'm more drawn to the dark side.

Stop having wrong takes.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Stop having wrong takes.

There is 0.00 testosterone in any aspect of Andor. It is pure estrogen.

 

[ahtlas7]

I really like the colors, tones, atmosphere. I would be willing to give this a chance but I long ago dumped D+

Loved this creeping hands from the darkness

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

I can't wait to see Episode 3 and 4 this coming sunday. The first two episodes were amazing and looked fantastic too

 

[scoobidoo112]

Sam Witwer is so good as Maul, I've always admired his passion for the franchise. Nice to see the positive reception so far!

Seems like this and Andor have been the only Star Wars related content worth watching this last decade... which is crazy.

Ahhh. You're a man lover.

got ya.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

It's the Downton Abbey of Star Wars (with inferior writing).

 

[jufonuk]

How he wasn't a mainstay throughout the PT I'll never understand.

The coolest villain since Vader, gets about 5 minutes of screen time, and Lucas just tosses his ass down a hole.

I swear to God, the stupidity of this franchise is fucking incomprehensible.

Boba fett also

Underrated post. Andor is Antifa in Space.

 

[jason10mm]

So this looks to be a sorta sequel to Solo, so maybe Emelia Clarks character will show up.

 

[AzureShinobi]

The animation looks quite better from the Clone Wars show days. Will watch it later today.
