You forgot that on television it would look more like this:

That pit droid in the middle is such a poser.

Hey, I'm just saying it's original.

I believe you mean for Maul to be killed by Owen on Tatooine.

I totally didn't make this connection until now, but Maul must live to make this happen!

He's dead, Jim.

I wish...

But of course, Maul survives once more to terrorize the galaxy decades later.



Wait...

The guy's like a cockroach.

Well, that occasion was confirmed to be a clone, wasn't it? Wasn't it?!

(Please don't tempt fate or they'll retcon it and say they just resurrected his original body )

In the comic the Emperor shrugs and says "There are ways in which those who are no more can live again"

In other words: "**** if I know".

I bet Vader thought: "TELL ME and lets get Padmé!"

Here it comes one day... Vader brings Padmé back to life but she is like Frankenstein's monster.. mirroring the original Frankenstein tale of tragedy, he wishes he'd have let her stay dead.. having to kill her again himself.


edit: and I by now even began to like returned Maul... weird as it is. if it means I get one day Mace Windu post-ROTS with amnesia in coruscants underworld... I am all for it!

What was the old Onion article - "Incorrect Fact Found on Internet Site"?

Finally saw this episode -- did anyone else think it was kind of epically awesome to hear all that "Vizsla!" chanting on TV? I mean, that's like the Falleens from last week. Tor almost had his posthumous revenge. So cool.

Also, this episode has another really random Open Seasons connection: Clancy Brown. Who's played two characters now: Savage and Montross. Montross... onetime enemy of Tor Vizsla. Odd.

Clancy Brown probably has a very skewed opinion of Star Wars right now. "What is Star Wars about? Jedi, Sith, and Death Watch."

I feel sorry for him

My thoughts:

They threw in a couple swerves from the book. First Bo being Satine's sister was new, as was Palpatine saying he had a use for Maul. In the book he says he has no use for him as he zaps him with lighting.

And the guy we thought was Maul in Mandalorian armor wasn't. He was just a normal Mauldalorian. I suspect they developed that head mold with the thought of using him as Maul and backed out for whatever reason. Probably for the best.

Overall I feel like these episodes would have worked better intermingled with the rest of the season. It would have made it seem like Maul ruled Mandalore for more than a week

Duel was fun, though having Maul beg for mercy I feel is really a negative for his character. Vizsla didn't cry and beg but the big tough Sith Lord does, lol.

Cry sissy boy, cry Your the laughing stock of Sith Lords everywhere. Loser. It almost makes bringing him back from the dead worthwhile just to hear him beg.

He can wipe away his tears with that paycheck they're giving him.

So I was browsing through the excerpt of The Last Jedi when I came across the word

'Mandalore'. It looks as if this novel has been used to tie-in to TCW. The browsing function of the book is weird (the pages are out of order and apparently from throughout the whole novel), so I screen-shoted what I could:

Note: "...the old Mandalorian capital of Keldabe..."

Interesting stuff. And to think they wouldn't handle a Piell retcon but they'll delve into this.

Sadly Darth Maul died on Naboo.
Now we have to deal with Robo Maul the Emotional...

WELL. Couple of interesting changes there, to say the least.

Maul emotionally begged --> Sidious granted him mercy.

So out of character.

Talk about a twist at the end. However, I think we can all agree that this episode was a fitting tribute to Ian Abercombie. This is the first time since ROTS that we've seen Palpatine/Sidious fight in a battle, and it was spectacular.

Now I'm left wondering if Palpatine will make an appearance in future episodes with a
