    Was he an American character? Because his American accent is predictably terrible. I've never seen a Scottish actor do a good one. No, not even you, Alan Cumming.

    Wot.

    He was the Britishy Mandalorian.

    They had to rightfully put a cap on him, because he's a ginger IRL and it's a show that kids should be able to enjoy without risk of demonic corruption.

    Oh, I can handle most of the animated voices, but the clones' mangling NZish is pretty awful. I have to just pretend Morrison & that Fett kid actually mangled the Kamino accent.

    I hope this Mandalorian eventually dies of toxoplasmosis.

    So can we talk R1 in this thread as long as we mark it as spoilers, right?

    The Rebels successfully steal the plans.

    And we can safely say that no Bothans will die in this movie.

    Well we do know that many died to bring them the information concerning DS2, but some could still die in R1. Alan Tudyk is playing a mo-caped character so anything is possible.

    It would be cool/nice to actually SEE some bothans IN universe, like on Rebels. The one character at Dooku's secret meeting table in AOTC is or isn't a Bothan? I can't remember if it was officially confirmed.

    Bothans can be human now, I guess.

    jp-30 - we both say "can't" just like an American would. They're fine. The accents are fine. So says people not from NZ.

    I assume Bothan spies were the ones who failed to inform the New Republic that the First Order had an entire planet weaponized. That would be in keeping with Bothan incompetence seen in ROTJ.

    I'm going with "Not a Bothan".

    It wasn't confirmed. Even if it was, now it wouldn't be canon. So Bothans could be a droid model with penis-shaped heads, for all we know.

    It could be that Bothans is a clothing company, specialising in disguises, and provided all of the disguises used in the vast operation to get the plans. It was such a big project, many bothans dyed.

    Fun fact: Lego Star Wars: The Video Game (the one for the PT) is the only video game I've ever had 100% completion on. Never again.

    While I appreciate the humor that Lego brings to the Star Wars franchise, especially in the Lego TFA trailer, I find the gameplay to be clunky and slow, at least it felt that way in "Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga" for PS3. I played for maybe 1/2 an hour and I was bored. I recall that the load times seemed extremely long.
