    How about this, someone doing a GOT character in armor, Jedi robe or some other outfit? I will be watching that premier!

    Am I the only one who doesn't watch GoT? I couldn't get into the first few episodes. Figured I'd try and binge it once the series is done as some of the trailers for later seasons look epic.

    I don't watch it - that type of fantasy just doesn't grab me. I haven't read any of the books either.

    I've never seen it. So we are the only two. We are like the Sith Lords of non-GoT watchers.

    I got into it during the first season, and then it kind of got out from under me and I never caught up. Now it seems like a daunting task to do so. There's a few other good shows that's happened with. One of these days I'll get caught up.

    I'm aiming to finish my Clone Wars re-watch (half way through season 5 now so should be easy, just dreading the droids arc), re-watch Solo, and catch up on Resistance as I fell a bit behind before Christmas (bad fan!). I'll be ready for Celebration easy.

    Books and comics is another matter....

    Yea, I'm still behind on Rebels. And I'd like to do a Clone Wars re-watch as well.

    Damn, they got rid of my colors! I knew that was going to happen once I started posting around again. Eh well, at least I got away with it for as long as I did. It was cool while it lasted to look all important around here. :cool:

    Never.

    You better stay here where it's safe. I went back to the RO threads, and now I'm back to being a common poster. :(

    Looks like whoever removed your colors didn't do it properly. I've fixed that. [face_devil]

    We'd have gotten you sooner or later. Before I became a mod I won a quote contest in Lit. I had the colors almost a year before someone remembered to remove them. (It was a former mod).

    You know, you mods have the ability to turn to the dark side and just give everyone in the Celebration forum colors...

    Well it was nice while it lasted. Anyways, if the opportunity arises again, we will crush our enemies and the Celebration forum will reclaim our colors !

    This I assume would have some The Mandalorian stuff and it's right before Celebration.

    @star_wars_is_good There have been leaked set photos and such, but I think a Mandalorian trailer would make whatever panel that would be at a must. I think it is too early for a full episode. If you think about it, and we all have... lol, there is a lot of exciting stuff to look forward to.

    I think the first episode is possible. They showed the full premiere of the final season of Rebels in Orlando and that didn't air until the fall.

    Yeah I agree. The series will launch later this year. Rebels seasons 2-3 all had premieres at Celebration so it’s definitely possible for the pilot to be ready in time. Plus it would be a huge selling point for Disney+ if it gets a big reaction at Celebration.

    That's a big gamble. They'd have to be really on point and be absolutely sure that it's excellent in order for it to premiere at Celebration. Because if it isn't and it bombs, and it doesn't get the hype they want from a Celebration screening, that could cause it to crash and burn right then and there for the general audience. And it could come down to a last minute decision. If it's not ready, or if there is even the slightest bit of doubt about it, they'll probably say no-go on a premiere. Obviously the panel will happen, but a screening can be decided at any time.

    Compare that to Rebels, a 30 minute animated show that airs on the Disney channel. There was a lot of leeway there and it was a much safer bet. Any kind of criticism could be deflected by way of it being a 30 minute animated show that airs on the Disney channel. Swift changes could have also been made in order to keep it afloat if it had gotten bad reviews. It would never have been do or die the way a serious hour long screening of a show like The Mandalorian would be.
