Ziro, the Hutt.

(from Star Wars wiki)

Apparently, Ziro, the Hutt will be featured in the Clone Wars series with this information from his Bio:

During the Clone Wars, Ziro was approached by Senator Padmé Amidala at his palace on Coruscant, when she tried to reopen communications with the Hutts, as they believed that the Jedi had abducted Jabba's son, Rotta. In reality, Ziro had struck a deal with Count Dooku to kidnap the child as part of a plot against his nephew. He attempted to dispose of Amidala with the help of his sentry droid IG-86, but was ultimately apprehended by Republic troops and put into custody.

You need to black out the spoilers. Those are pretty serious for the unspoiled out there.

 

I think we'll black it out for now, but I think we'll have to clearly establish what is "spoilers" after the theatrical release.

 

Sorry, Q - I meant more of the tv series itself.

 

As long as I can come here and freely discuss an episode the day after it airs. If I miss it I won't come into the topic chat until I see it.

Basically, I think the episode chats should follow the comic book chats in the books and comic forum. For example, when a new issue of KOTOR come out there is a open discussion about it. Sounds that that is what you guys are planning, though.

 

Also, maybe you could leave the continuity thread with a spoiler warning so we can talk about all the changes and retconning to the timeline from week to week?

 

Kind of makes me wonder why all the focus on Republic corruption was directed toward ineffective bureaucracy when there's apparently Hutt gangsters like Borvo on Naboo (in the EU), and now Ziro - both I'm sure carrying out illegal dealings - who reside in Republic space and yet the Republic won't touch.

 

We're just a step away from seeing a 3D Zorba with Ziro. Even if it has to be in a flashback, bring on the bearded one in 3-D!

 

Maybe Zorba had a pet Fraggle instead of a Kowakian Monkey-Lizard when he was operating... ;-)

 

More spoiler information about Jabba's son, Rotta the Hutt:

Rotta's name was first found on a LEGO Preliminary Image of an AT-TE set to be released under the Clone Wars TV series line. Further leaked information, including his LEGO pic, pointed to him being a young, or diminutive Hutt, and even being Jabba's son, or another close relative. A Clone Wars action figure card confirmed him as the son of Jabba.

Plus Jabba's involvement:

[hl=black]During the mid-Clone Wars, Jabba requested the Jedi's help in finding his son, Rotta. But the CIS was threatening to start a war between him and the Republic. [/hl]

Since it got locked for being redundant.

Ziro the Hutt. Discussion begins here.

Personally, I think it sounds hysterical.

 

Meh, Jabba was gross but also kind of intimidating.

The Hutts are just becoming gag pieces.

 

IDK, in the movies I like my Hutts speaking Huttese. It makes it that much more alien. Will admit I'm curious to hear how a Hutt sounds speaking basic.

2 more days!!!

 

All right, I'll be the first the say it here but I'm not the first to think it. I kept thinking as I watched Clone Wars, is Ziro gay? I know Hutt's are hermaphrodites and can go from male to female and vice versa, but I can't get this out of my ehad and I imagine we'll keep debating this till the bantha's come in to be milked.
