Tech! Happily 3D printed just in time for #TheBadBatch series to (sadly) end, this is @Playactiontoys's latest action figure release. Created with a perfect array of Polymaker PLA colors on https://twitch.tv/MakerDeck live!
I had a great time with Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Crosshair, Omega and Echo from #starwars#thebadbatch. In the end it were three great seasons with hard losses and epic wins. It began in Clone Wars Season 7 with the first words of Wrecker „The cavalry has arrived“ and this is the name of the last episode going full circle. I hope there will be a novel or a comic showing us the fate of Omega after the epilogue at the end of the last episode.
I watched “Into the Breach” (S03E13) of The Bad Batch last night. This show continues to be great, and I really enjoyed this episode! I was anxious and on the edge of my seat until the very end—and I’m excited for next week.
Only TWO WEEKS LEFT of this show! 😭 If you’ve been sleeping on it, it’s a great time to get into it so you’re caught up in time for the penultimate or final episode… I have a feeling it’s gonna be good.
In case you have completely missed this show or not been interested because of the obscure cast—I was absolutely skeptical before getting into it—here are some spoiler-free reasons you should give it a go: 🧵
• The animation is fantastic. It’s incredible how far Lucasfilm Animation has come with their style and capabilities since the extremely rough early days of The Clone Wars. If you didn’t like the style back then (cough @markedward cough) give the latest trailers a peep to check in. I’m constantly impressed by the environments, lighting, detail, and cinematography of this show.
• It’s a focused, character-driven story that simultaneously ties neatly into the entire cinematic timeline. Palpatine’s influence looms large over the galaxy without being overbearing, the main characters are ex-Republic troopers finding their way in the galaxy under the thumb of the newly formed Empire, and it’s actually naturally tying into a bit of the Mandoverse and sequel trilogy without it feeling forced or like a retcon.
• The score/soundtrack! Holy crap, Kevin Kiner and his kids, Sean and Deana Kiner have done an incredible job—this final season in particular has been constantly impressive to me. It has that classic Star Wars orchestral feel at times, but definitely feels evolved in a way similar to the Andor score: a bit more synth-y and eerie at times, sometimes almost… rock?? Idk, it is just great imho.
Un extrait de la saison 2 de The Bad Batch: Palpatine prend la parole au Sénat pour dénoncer un pseudo-complot qu'il a lui-même monté contre les clones de la République, qu'il veut éliminer. Le grand Ian McDiarmid double la série, ce qui lui confère toute sa force shakespearienne... Brrr!
Dernier épisode de la saison 2 de "The Bad Batch". Ca passe à une vitesse, ils pourraient faire plus d'épisodes :blobugh: Cette série est tellement passionnante en ce qu'elle montre les débuts de l'Empire et l'emprise grandissante du fasciste Palpatine sur la galaxie
#StarWars hot take: what #Andor is for live-action SW, #TheBadBatch is for animated SW. Both shows focus on life under totalitarian rule and to what extent you still have agency.
Where are my #StarWars fedi friends at?? I feel like I need to follow more of you nerds.
As a fan of both The High Republic and fresh Star Wars stories, I’m stoked about The Acolyte. I’ve been thoroughly enjoying The Bad Batch (but haven’t seen today’s yet, no spoilers!). I enjoyed Ahsoka and am looking forward to whatever is next in the Filoni/Mandoverse era.
Replies and boosts appreciated so I can connect with you folks.
Update: power and internet are back, just in time to hurry home in the rain and watch #TheBadBatch. Two episodes this week and these descriptions are crazy 🤯
