Full Series Sabine

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Which is exactly how I'll feel if we get Rey Random!

 

Exactly, and that thought had occurred to me as well. It's like, why are keeping pretty much everything about the parents so secretive (this is true of both Rey and Sabine), including never using their names, if the "payoff" is just "they're random characters that we've never heard of before?" That's so lame.

 

Yeah, any "shocking mysteries" will probably be left to the big screen. In the animated series, the secrets are not too significant - as Todd the Jedi more or less said. Don't think it is the aim of the show.

 

I think the way it went down was they were working on Rook Kast for Son of Dathomir, then that story arc went unproduced when TCW was cancelled. Dave liked the design of that character so he used it in Rebels as Sabine with some tweaks. I think Pablo already confirmed this when he described Sabine's design as being partly based on Rook: "...it was a Nite Owl + Rook Kast + original paint scheme + secret sauce". There were many designs and even environments lifted from unproduced arcs, especially Son of Dathomir, i.e. Stygeon prison and Maul's asteroid hideout.
So we were wrong that Rook was her mother in universe, but in a way she was her spiritual mother out of universe in the design.

 

Interesting gif. Sabine uses her knee to block

 

The secrets are easily seen ahead of time (Ahsoka, Kallus) Or they just outright tell us that this character will appear again. The only exception to this is Rex and Maul, but other then that they don't really try to keep secrets.

 

So with it looking like they did find a way for Sabine to survive into the time of the OT what do you think her future will hold. She is only a couple years older than Luke and Leia so she would only be about 55 or so by the time of the ST. Even if she doesn't have anything to do with the movies they could easily bring her character into any animation projects that take place post ROTJ

 

I was thinking about this, and I'm wondering if we will end up getting Mandalorian things in the new trilogy with Rey. I mean, they could easily put in a mandalorian character that has an allegiance to Clan Wren that mentions Sabine if she never shows up.

 

I have my doubts that we would get much of anything Mandalorian related in any of the upcoming movies. I don't believe Mandalore has had anything to do with the movies so far and up to this point I think they have been pure Expanded Universe works. Most people watching the movies wouldn't have any idea what or who a Mandalore was yet alone why they are so important. Would be tough to bring them in to a movie and apease both the hardcore and non hardcore fans by explaining who they even are while at the same time showing the lush history they have.

 

Depends. Mandalorians are quite popular among us fans, but the trilogy is aimed at the casuals. Wouldn't rule out appearing in a spin off, maybe the Han Solo or the Boba Fett (if it happens)

 

If Sabine ever shows up live action, I don't want to see her helmet removed. I'm not saying she's ugly. But I would like it as an homage towards Boba & Phasma.

 

The Mandos can hijack the film for me!

 

Lol. Well you can continue to sit in the theater eating your popcorn while most everyone else in there is throwing their popcorn up in the air saying 'who the double hockey sticks are these people'. Then you could go home and watch the box office numbers drop assuring yourself of never seeing mandos in any Star Wars ever again.

 

Hopefully they make it so after Sabine finds her father and perhaps make HIM leader of Mandalore....she'll REJOIN the ghost crew then!

 

Soon, very soon. Because unless we're going to get frequent cut-aways to what she's been doing, I want her back on that ship, well soon.

 

I say let her do her own thing.

 

Well, you should check out the new TV promo....that someone uploaded to YouTube.

 

Do you have a link? I can't find it.

 

Ditch ezra, bring sabine back! IMO that's the only thing rebels has left to give this show any meaning. Switch the focus to the rebellion and mandalore and forget the whole "ezra conflicted in the force" story line.

 

I think there is going to be a big Mandalorian storyline in S4. Maybe in parallel to the Rebellion stories.

 

If Season 4 is set during Rogue One and ANH, Dave might move the Rebels 'universe' to another part of the galaxy - to prevent potential contradictions. Focusing on the Mandalorians might be a smart insurance policy.

 

i could dig it.

 

You wouldn't have to worry about the OT.
