To each their own. I consider the Mortis arc to be peak Star Wars and anticipate Ahsoka season 2 more for its continuation of those concepts than I am for Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Spoilers The Acolyte
- Thread starter Gordie
- Start date
I mean a Season 2 could have created new characters you might have also found interesting.
Where?
with Baylan i'm wondering how they're going to handle his storyline going forward. I would think a recasting is in order, but you'd presumably be hard pressed to find someone similar enough to Ray. Hopefully they don't settle for a CGI double and just sweep the whole plot thread under the rug with some kind of quick wrap-up.
Kind of surprised they were thinking of a second season for Acolyte since it felt like a one and done.
Each to their own indeed. It was at that point that I could stand no more and simply abandoned the animated shows.
Well hopefully. Acolyte apparently didn't do that well, and they did kill almost all of the main cast.
A soft boot and carrying things foward of an element of another show could work.
Qmir is just too good a character to discard.
I went into it fully expecting it to be a one-off, but by the end it felt like they were leaving it open for a possible continuation.Hartzilla2007 said:
And i would note that any character in the show who saw a Sith in action, red blade and all, ended up either dead, memory-wiped, or turned to the dark side.

Sith lineage is a mess because of the show now though. We don't know where Plagueis fits into things. If he's Qimir's master, then Osha and Qimir have to meet a messy end. And that will be left hanging. Unless Plagueis was literally a cavemuun spying on them without Sith leanings yet, Osha kills Qimir, then takes Plagueis as an apprentice.
Sith ? What Sith ?
The more I think about it the more certain I am that some sort of continuation will happen, playing out the return of the Sith and culminating in Plaguis falling to his apprentice Sidious.
I'd not be surprised nor disappointed should Qmir leave Plaguis and not become truly Sith, becoming more of a Ventress character.

They were already guessing he was the founder of Knights of Ren over in the SW boards.
You lost me there.
It's really not.
There is a lot of fan assumption that was undone by this show, and their poor fan head canon. But, as was noted elsewhere, Palpatine never says who was his master; we assumed it so but it isn't out and out stated. So, what lineage is leading up to Palpatine is unknown.
Two, Qimir and Osha training together outside of Plaguis blessing is hardly new Sith behavior. They're constantly seeking to Undermind and overthrow and test the other's abilities. In the original books around TPM Palpatine discusses sending back up for Maul to ensure he succeeds. That Qimir and Osha would likely die is exactly why I find the story so interesting. They got what they wanted and its a complete tragedy. It's excellent.
Plagueis being Palpatine's master is literally in the official website https://www.starwars.com/databank/darth-plagueis and also in canon books like Secrets of the Sith. So it's not a fan assumption, it's literally in the Disney canon books and the official Star Wars website. You don't get much more official than that for what you're calling "poor fan head canon".
I am saddened, as an Asian man myself, that we're losing the portrayal of a masculine, dateable, Asian man in our media even if the character was a villain. We Asian men need that portrayal in western media, and the cancelation of this show wipes out the most prominent example.
I mean, I go with what I know based on what I watch, not books. So...yeah, I'm sticking with "poor head canon" because we didn't have a whole long lineage established on screen.
I mean maybe you didn't see the notice 10 years ago, but only Legends had a hierarchy of screen, then print, etc. (and even that wasn't consistent, just ask 2003 Clone Wars, Ewoks/Droids shows, and the Ewok movies which were placed on a lower tier than Filoni's Clone Wars). Disney's current stance per https://www.starwars.com/news/the-legendary-star-wars-expanded-universe-turns-a-new-page is
Now, with an exciting future filled with new cinematic installments of Star Wars, all aspects of Star Wars storytelling moving forward will be connected. Under Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy's direction, the company for the first time ever has formed a story group to oversee and coordinate all Star Wars creative development.
"We have an unprecedented slate of new Star Wars entertainment on the horizon," said Kennedy. "We're set to bring Star Wars back to the big screen, and continue the adventure through games, books, comics, and new formats that are just emerging. This future of interconnected storytelling will allow fans to explore this galaxy in deeper ways than ever before."
Basically Disney's stance is they're all equally canon.
Qmir, more prominent than Shang-Chi? You must be eating too many death sticks.
I don't touch that stuff. And neither do you apparently otherwise you'd know death sticks were smoked, not eaten.Qmir, more prominent than Shang-Chi? You must be eating too many death sticks.
This poster is obviously a Jedi posing as an underworld figure, and doing a terrible job at it at that.
I anticipate there will be an animated ‘Here’s what you would have gotten if it hadn’t been for the haters’ Tales of the Jedi mini-season devoted purely to speed-running through whatever they had in mind for the rest of the series. As a face-saving gesture, if nothing else.
