Mini Series Cad Bane in TBOBF (spoilers)

What do you think?

 

I didn't know Cad Bane was a Cajun guy myself.

 

Looked much better then I expected, pretty darn cool and dangerous looking.

Although as a minor nit pick was that he had obvious problems keeping his mouth closed, but eh, looked cool nonetheless.

 

I don't think this should be a thread title yet, so many have not had a chance to see the episode.

 

This.

 

I loved seeing Cad Bane. But the...shorter face and inability to fully close his mouth made him look a little silly. Like a cross between Jim Carrey's the Grinch and the Mouth of Sauron from the Extended Cut of Return of the King. Would've preferred something closer to the TCW look. Longer snout, and less of the teeth. Nitpick though. Amazing to see him finally make the transition from animation.

 

Cad Bane has cheated death in TCW. He was supposed to have died in TCW as part of Boba's ascension to the best Bounty Hunter.

So now it's time for Boba to put an end to his archrival for good. If Boba wants to reinvent himself as a better crime lord, he must defeat his old self in Cad Bane.

Note how Cad Bane called Boba "a cold-blooded killer who works for the Empire."

It's honestly a less-than-subtle indication that Cad Bane is everything that Boba once was.

 

Bane was incredible.

Best adaptation of an animated character so far to me.

 

He even got the Omar Sharif emerging from the desert treatment.

Filoni did good.

 

Good catch. The clothing and the walk and the posture, yes, we've seen that comparison before. But actually, maybe that's what was behind the sort of...squinty face he has in this? I was comparing it to his TCW face, of course, and so it looked off. But with the Van Cleef comparison, I can easily come around!

 

Cad Banes introduction was absolutely awesome and very fitting for the character. Thoroughly enjoyed the scene with him and Cobb, even though I really hope Cobb survived. Also Banes introduction finally gives the Pykes a recognizable face and its even one Boba is very familiar with, so this really moved the story forward in a good way.

 

I kind of wish he hadn't appeared in The Bad Batch. This being his first on-screen appearance since almost exactly a decade ago would have been incredible.

 

I have no issue with the mouth, could easily be explained away with struggling with the desert heat.

 

You just knew poor Cobb Vanth was a dead man long before it happened, only two gunslingers quick enough... may be three, to out draw Bane.

The Sergio Leone/ Lee Van Cleef homage to Angel Eyes in The Good, The Bad & The Ugly was pure gold!!!

 

Very cool live action addition.

 

Cade Bane live action, nuff said.!

 

Fantastic scene! Only gripe? The "Deputy" was (deliberately written to be) annoying, and only in this scene/episode so Cab Bane had someone to kill. CV will survive...

 

What did everyone else make of his blasters sounding generic instead of the epic unique sound they have in the animated shows?

 

So did this episode hint at Cad Bane never work for the empire and why we didnt see him in ESB.?

 

He looked and sounded fantastic.
