A/V The Freemaker Adventures - Season 2

Well, the first episode aired, is available on the XD app, and on Amazon, etc. Watched the first episode his morning with my daughter. A lot of fun!

I dig the Lego Star Wars Universe, and think this side-story focusing on new unique characters is a great idea.

And the idea of salvagers re-building 'Uglies' ("Z-Wings!", says Zander) is the perfect setup for a Lego-based universe, right?

(Didn't see another thread for this in Lit. Feel free to merge if there already is)

 

As long as nothing in this show is considered canon I may consider watching

 

That's such a weird response to a LEGO show.

 

Graballa the Hutt I presume?

 

Watched the first episode, quite liked it the ending needs to be seen to be believed (as in I'm not spoilering it here!)

 

It was the Vader with the Naboo starfighter that won me over. Including Thomas Lennon's customer character, what was his name? I'd love to see him as an ongoing nemesis of the Freemakers.

I don't think any of this is canon, but since I'm currently, um , trying to play my way through the Lego Star Wars games (at MY age!!!), I definitely got a giggle out of it.

 

I've only seen the first episode so far but based on the reactions here (of all places) I'll definitely have to keep up with it--and I wouldn't mind if basic elements from the show made it into canon here and there. It can be a source of worldbuilding without having to be completely literal.

Oh, and in case this is news, Leland confirmed that it takes place between ESB and RotJ, adding a further parallel to the Azzameens.

 

Not from Star Wars fans, it isn't.

 

So I think the last episode had the first on-screen depiction of the Temple-As-Imperial Palace. Even without explicit markings, that was cool


I mean, it's not as cool as the FFG art for it, but having it be onscreen as such in animation (in some form at least) in that role is kind of neat.

 

Where can I see that FFG picture bigger?!

Anyway I really love this show. It's heartfelt, has really unique relationships at its center...and yeah, the writers are really finding interesting angles on familiar Star Wars tropes.

Spoiler

In particular, I loved Rowan's siblings helping him figure out the Force on Bespin.

 

I didn't know the Wheel was in it until the other day! Is this supposed to be the LEGO version of the (Legends) Marvel Wheel?

TC

 

It's been said to have been inspired by it, but not to BE it.

 

I know that season 1 is going to have 13 episodes, but are they planning more seasons? I love this series and Roger is just comical.

 

Great new episode this week! Rowan's figured out some ...stuff.

 

Is this available for streaming anywhere? I DVRd the season and then my cable box died on me before I had a chance to watch it. I suppose I could always just find it on youtube...

 

If you had been able to DVR it, that must mean you have a Disney XD subscription. If so, you can definitely view it with the XD app, or login using your cable provider's system to watch it on demand.

For those who do not have nor want to buy a cable package with Disney XD because of $$$, the episodes are available to legally purchase through amazon (my choice), iTunes, etc.

Basically, the same exact venues to watch Rebels. (I've also seen reruns showing on the vanilla Disney Channel from time to time).

 

I'm still behind on watching but I just wanna say, that episode with Vader and the Naboo was one of the cutest things I have ever seen in Star Wars.

 

Thanks. Unfortunately, my provider doesn't work with Disney's on demand system as of yet. I may have to check it out on Amazon. It seems that people are really enjoying it.

 

So...next episode says Hondo shows up...hopefully this will mean the main canon universe still has Hondo at this time. Can you imagine a meeting between Luke and Hondo??
