Spoilers AHSOKA series [Spoiler Discussion]

[The Nth Doctor]

Precisely. The best actors can convey so much through their eyes alone.

Which is why it was sad that they made the Queen's eyes completely black in Picard Season 2.

It's amazing how much Alaqua Cox of Marvel's "Echo" can convey with facial expressions and gestures alone.

Inhumans was so largely forgettable, but I do seem to recall that Anson Mount did an admirable job acting with just facial expressions as Black Bolt. He wasn't really in the Doctor Strange movie long enough to judge his performance there.

90 percent of human communication is nonverbal.

He did well enough to make me consider watching Inhumans.

I know we have. This has been a part of Ahsoka's arc since she appeared in the episode of the Mandalorian first, the Book of Boba Fett. She is on a journey of making peace with a rather painful past, not being a Jedi, not wanting to become like what made Anakin in to Vader, yet not able to shake that past. She has strong defensives because that's her only way to cope.

It goes back further than that; even in 'Rebels' she was reserved and stoic. Hell, you could even see the start of this shift in the final season of TCW. Rosario was just building on what was established and moving it on another decade.

I agree. I think Elizabeth Olson can act very good with only her eyes, especially in Doctor Strange 2

She's deaf in real life, so that's pretty much the only way she can communicate.

In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Mary Elizabeth Winstead speaks of her experience working on Ahsoka in a way that she was unable to during the strike. Interestingly, and perhaps not coincidentally, the press release regarding the Mando and Grogu movie and Ahsoka season 2 was released literally in the middle of the Hollywood Reporter's interview with Winstead.

I completely forgot she played Ramona Flowers

"Jabba the Hutt, Lando Calrissian and Morgan Elsbeth all walk into a bar."

Or...

"A Tale of Two Ezras".

I figured that a Season 2 was inevitable. Can't wait to see the character of emotionless robot Ashoka Tano sleepwalk through eight more episodes of television. Maybe in Season 2 something actually important will happen before episode 6.

Wow, it's like your inside my brain.

Anthony Daniels got a line added to the series that was cut. Maybe we'll see it on the Blu-Ray.

Daniels then described the original version of the scene. “Threepio comes in, and there’s a large courtroom scene going on. And here, I did something rather clever.”

Daniels wanted Threepio’s presence to be more impactful, so he spoke with the showrunner about expanding the moment. “Dave Filoni and I had a script conference on Zoom. Basically, the scene was Threepio walks in, says something, and then walks out. If you ever watch that scene again, Threepio comes in at the back of the set, and there were two guards. I came up with a line, which I totally stole from Episode IV with Sir Alec Guinness. I tell the guards, ‘You don’t need to see my identification.’ That was a straight steal.”

 

[Set Harth]

It... actually was in the episode, though? Just in different words?

Here is a closer look at the photo of Kanan that Hera kept on the Ghost's bridge console. It is indeed, as many people suspected, an image of Freddie Prinze Jr.

[The Nth Doctor]

Wow, that's awesome!

I wonder if it was a stock photo or if he posed specifically for that prop.

 

[Reverend]

I'm a little suspicious of the provenance of that image. First off; it popped up on the internet on April 1st, which is always cause for careful scrutiny. Secondly; it's claimed to have come from a particular movie prop facebook group, but so far as I can tell that image wasn't posted there recently.
Could be real (certainly seems authentic) but I'd wait until a more credible source appears before getting too excited.

If it is real, then it's a photoshopped old picture, because he looks younger there than he is now.

This.

Turns out at least a few of the shots of the T-6 really were done with a practical model on a motion control stage, and it was indeed the very one shown off at celebration way ahead of the release! I'll admit, I was convinced this thing was only built for reference. It seemed too small and too challenging a design to rig for motion control! The Razorcrest & Light Cruiser were at least static models.

Kind of wild that parts of it were made with a vacu-former that dates back to the model shop's San Rafae Kerner Company days! That's some serious vintage ILM provenance!
