✨️ calling all Star Wars fans ✨️

Hello there tumblr!

While we Star Wars fans are anxiously waiting for the bad batch finale, I could use your help! In fact...

I am currently in the process of writing my master's thesis. My research is about age & Star Wars characters. The research is trying to investigate whether there is a difference in fans of different ages liking or disliking certain characters that appear throughout Episodes 1-9. The survey takes about 5-10 minutes to complete, is completely anonymous, and you must be 18+ to participate.

It would be ✨️ wizard ✨️ if you could share it with your friends, parents, siblings, or any other Star Wars fans you might know! Or even just reblogging this post for others to discover here on Tumblr 😊

It would mean the world (or galaxy hehe) if you would fill it out. If you did THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU, ALWAYS! ✨️✨️✨️

My predictions for the tbb finale:

+ Omega will control the zillo beast.

(All the force user episodes were highlighting the controlling of animals by the force, there has to be a reason for that)

+ Rampart will absolutely try to rat the batch out to regain his old position at the empire and will be used by the empire and then discarded.

(He’s a bitch and the empire is a facist government)

+ Echo dies.

(Listen, I don’t want that either, but he was so cool the last few episodes and when the focus shifted to showing Tech‘s abilities we all know what happened)

Or

+ They’re all gonna die.

Except for Omega, she makes her escape with a hound on an escape pod, while everything else blows up and she becomes the Ellen Ripley of Star Wars.

(This is still based on the fact that I think someone in the creative team is using Alien (1979) as their inspiration, I don’t what that to happen either)

(Me, when anything of what I said is true because I don’t want to be true)

I have very strong dislike against Rampart but him screaming like a bitch and being insulted by the batch gives me absolute life. He deserves every second of it.

PLEASE ahahahaha - no it’s an opera by Berthold Brecht, I kinda tapped out of Rammstein since their sexual assault controversies

Do you sometimes have a thought so specific that it is straight up messed up?

For me it was:

Und der Haifisch, der hat Zähne

Und die trägt er im Gesicht

Und Echo, der hat Ohren

Doch die Ohren sieht man nicht

(Translation:

And the shark, it has teeth

And it wears them in his face

And echo, he has ears

But the ears you don't see)

Tf is my brain connecting the threepenny opera with fucking Star Wars the bad batch???

Another thing to add to the bad batch brainrot: someone on the creative team is a massive Alien (1979) fan. I mean the whole Episode with the Zillo beast clone, scary abandoned space ship, unhurtable foreign species, weird technology who doesn’t give all the information at first, you’re not supposed to split up, tech, but they do anyways and the entire theme of “this is fucked up because humans can’t let nature be and must use it as weaponry”.

Thanks for hearing me out!

Edit: I just remembered how alien ends (everybody dies (no, that’s not a Spoiler the film is 45 years old)) and suddenly im not very happy about my theory that it could have inspired bad batch.

I started bad batch season 3 and I once saw a theory that crosshairs tremor came from the fact that he is a mere clone of the original crosshair. I personally don’t believe it. One point in crosshair‘s journey always stuck out to me and it was the enhancement of his inhibitor chip. Crosshair mentioned he had it taken out but we never saw it. I never believed him anyways. Since his hand tremor started when he disobeyed direct orders (shooting his CO) I think it’s a side effect from the chip. I did say that since season one (in hope for a redemption arc) but i think that man was very much still controlled by the chip to an extent.

OMG I completely agree with you on Bo Katan! I also hate how she uses her sister to guilt trip Obi Wan. “I thought my sister meant something to you, guess I was wrong.” Bitch, weren’t you trying to kill your sister before Maul took over?!?!? Also, what episode is it where Ahsoka kicks the guy? That sounds funny, I think I need to rewatch it! 😄

Hi hi!

I absolutely agree. Like poor Obi-Wan seems super exhausted in these episodes in general and she‘s just bitching at him. She only started caring for her sister’s safety once she realized Saltine’s government was better than Maul’s. And back then Obi-Wan apologizes to her that Satine died, only for her to say that two seasons later.

The episode this happened in is season 7 episode 5, where Ahsoka helps the Martez sisters. The exchange with Anakin is more of my headcanon tho.

Have fun rewatching and a nice day <3

[servethelight]

Shit I’ve noticed during my clone wars rewatch and my interpretation (very Obi-Wan focused because he’s my favorite character lmao):

(Includes spoilers obviously)

+ I love this show to bits, but it has horrible issues with consistency. Every other episode there is a new weapon or something introduced and we’ll never see it again. This is very prevalent in especially the first seasons.

+ Obi-Wan is such a fucking enabler. Like he tells Anakin his plans are stupid at least twice during the Malevolence episodes, but then joins him on all of those. It’s literally like: “Anakin this plan is reckless and won’t work, anyways what’s my part in your plan?”

+ Rex running into that metal pipe. I forgot about that and laughed for 20 minutes straight.

+ Anakin pulls a “Are ya winning son?” on Obi-Wan about Ahsoka.

+ I once saw a post that it isn’t confirmed that Obi-Wan and Cody are friends, but you have Obi-Wan literally marveling on how competent the commander is and Cody always going the extra mile to save his general’s ass. To me that’s pretty much a friendship.

+ The Jedi are in general very gentle, but quite touchy. They might not go for hugs, but there is always someone touching someone’s shoulder or waist. And they’re just so fucking kind. I don’t think I ever noticed that as a kid, but they’re so respectful about life and culture and always helping someone. I just love them so much.

+ And I love the understanding and kindness the clones have. They’re soldiers and programmed to kill, but they’re also good people in most cases. I just wanna hug most of them.

+ My mother told me I cried as a child during the episodes with the Zillo beast. Well, I didn’t cry again, but I’m still so fucking mad at Palpatine for putting that poor creature in that position. If he just had listened to Mace Windu (more of the characters should actually, just saying) that poor animal wouldn’t have killed people and found its end like that.

+ Mortis is quite hated by the fandom but for me it’s a defining showcase of Obi-Wan’s, Anakin’s and Ahsoka’s relationship. I’ve seen people in the fandom saying that Anakin would’ve turned out differently if Obi-Wan would’ve told him he’s proud and took care of his feelings. This episodes literally show that he does exactly that and Anakin still doesn’t give a shit.

+ Anakin tells the son in his dream, that he’ll never come to the dark side willingly. Only to walk over to the literal manifestation of the dark side like 10 minutes later to save Ashoka. I came to the conclusion that the only way to tempt him was by promising to save his loved ones. I still think it was a really awful and greedy thing to become Vader for that, but I must admit it’s a noble character trait to put others first.

+ Kit Fisto doesn’t have nipples. Therefore I’ve concluded he’s isn’t a mammal and hatched from an egg like Nemo the clownfish. (And no, that isn’t a animation thing, Rex does have nipples when his shirt is off).

+ The discussion with my gf about Kit Fisto nipples and Star Wars biology also touched the topic of “how does Maul use the bathroom”. My conclusion is: he has a stoma, because the lower abdomen, where that would be, is always covered.

+ Hardcase mentions he is hyperactive. I now see him as my favorite ADHD clone, because having ADHD myself I can fucking relate.

+ I forgot Waxer died on Umbara and bawled my eyes out. Waxer is one my favorite clones and when he cried while dying I just couldn’t take it.

+ My friend spent the entire Umbara arc just simping for the clones (mostly Jesse), while I was suffering. So maybe they look hot or something for people attracted to men in this episodes.

+ In the episode after the Umbara the duo usually consisting of Waxer and Boil is sent out, but this time it’s just Boil and I was about to bawl again.

+ For being called “the negotiator” Obi-Wan gets his ass beat quite a lot after his “negotiations” (aggressive flirting).

+ While I’ll never forgive Obi-Wan for doing that Raako Hardeen shit, I nearly pissed myself when the Ziro the Hutt’s ex gf is flirting with not one but two women there. Like I didn’t expect her to be the fucking gay rep in clone wars.

+ I’m seriously never forgiving Obi-Wan for that. I can’t get over Ahsoka’s tear filled eyes while she’s holding his corpse. Also she doesn’t seem angry like Anakin just massively sad and disappointed after it is revealed that he’s still alive. Personally I believe she’s starting to doubt the order here.

+ Point three on hating on my favorite character for that shit, I feel like Anakin becomes quieter and less playful after that disaster.

+ Maul is me. He’s obsessed with Obi-Wan and mentions that he has massive problems what is going on inside his head. As a mentally ill person, that makes me feel really seen lmao.

+ The underwater episodes and the ones with Ventress on that train were just the most beautiful worlds I’ve ever seen. Like the planets in general are so beautifully designed in clone wars, I’m so in love.

+ Motherfucking “I said fuck the council and became a child soldier for a rebellion at 13” Obi-Wan Kenobi seems very reluctant on doing it again. There are two entire arcs of him disagreeing on helping rebels. First I didn’t understand, because like dude you literally did this before, but since he talks about his worries about bringing the separatists in or worsen the situation, I think the poor man is just a little bit traumatized.

+ After the events of Onderon I’m pretty sure Ashoka is already filled with doubts about the order, the republic and the war. I also feel like she’s feeling massively led down by Obi-Wan again, which broke my heart because I love their relationship.

+ I just realized he fails Ahsoka a third time, when she is captured by Hondo and Obi-Wan is supposed to help her. Instead he gets attacked by Grievous and is forced to postpone the helping them until they help themselves. I mean it’s not his fault but in Ahsoka’s place that wouldn’t feel good to me.

+ This particular fight with Grievous ignited my love for Obi-Wan again. Before he attacks Grievous he helps an injured clone and when he goes into the fight, Grievous directly kills a clone. Instead of his usual witty remarks, he just goes: “you’re gonna regret that” and jumps Grievous. He just loves his clones as much as I do.

+ One of the most beautiful shots in the entire series for me is in the episode before the droids find Gregor. This WAC droid looks into the desert and it reflects in his eye. Because of the cracks in the desert ground it looks almost like a retina. Beautiful metaphor of combining something artificial and metallic with an organic and almost human part. This was such a fucking raw shot for me, it took my breath away.

+ Tarkin is an asshole, but he’s climbed the asshole latter so hard after he has been mean to Plo Koon.

+ Shotout to Obi-Wan for convincing the order to let Anakin go after Ahsoka. Additionally the whole time he acts in her support only to be shut down by the council. I didn’t remember him doing that so I was surprised.

+ Fives tells the plot with the inhibitor chips to a cab driver. Do you think the cap driver ever thinks back after the war and is like: “Fuuuuuuck”?

+ I kid you not, the clone bar has gender neutral bathrooms (and no, it’s not bc the clones are all male, in the bar are also women). The bathroom are just decided by humans, hutts and a third species I cannot quite recognize.

+ I forgot Teckla gets shot, NOOOOOOO

+ I always say clone wars anakin is better, but Jesus stop acting like a jealous bitch. Padmè deserves an award for putting up with his bullshit. Obi-Wan too. He even tries to give him reassurance by telling him that feelings are not forbidden and Anakin just bitches at him.

+ Obi-Wan casually passing on babysitting duty for Jar Jar fucking killed me (and yes, taking care of Jar Jar is babysitting duty).

+ Never in a million years I would have thought to see Jar Jar admitting to fucking this queen, but here we have him saying he was making love to her last night. Imma set myself on fire and I believe Windu will join me.

+ You could also call the clone wars the exposition wars. Every episode has their one minute exposition in the beginning, but I feel like a lot of the dialogue is used for exposition.

+ Obi-Wan doesn’t learn shit. That man got drugged by Hondo, but yet still accepts drinks from the Pykes. MY BROTHER IN CHRIST PLEASE DONT

+ I AN GOING TO SCREAM. You have been informed that the Clones have a behavior influencing chip in their brains and then you find out Dooku was behind the creation of the clones and no one connects the fucking dots. I love the Jedi, but goddamn are you all dense.

+ Do you think Hunter thought Rex was screwing his general? Because their conversation sounded kinda suggestive and then they trail off to do something secret.

+ Ahsoka going “my older brother thought me”after kicking a guy where it hurts most. I now imagine Anakin going to Ahsoka as soon she got to be his padawan: “Listen up Snips, if you ever facing a creepy guy, you kick them right there”

+ When the sisters make their escape I don’t get why they don’t let Ahsoka fly. She’s clearly the more capable pilot.

+ Controversial opinion: I have a strong dislike for Bo Katan. She’s a fucking terrorist who doesn’t betray the deathwatch when they murder an entire innocent village, no but when there’s Maul trying to take their authority. Says a lot about her character if you ask me.

+ I mcfucking cried when the clones painted their helmets according to Ahsoka’s face markings and my flatmates gf came in and asked me if everything’s alright. I am fucking embarrassing I have seen this scene three times already but I still bawl like a baby.

+ Also my dear Obi-Wan can you quit being an ass? A “hello Ahsoka, nice to see you” wouldn’t have killed you.

+ Through the whole show most of the characters seemed to appear increasingly tired towards the end. Especially Obi-Wan and Ahsoka, but other characters aswell. The only one who seems to stay energized is Anakin. He becomes more serious but I feel like he’s the only one at the end that is still going into battles with full energy. It almost felt like he’s especially thriving in a war scenario which is incredibly sad.

+ The beauty of that last scene with Vader is truly unparalleled. I don’t ever think a tv show can recreate that.

+ I still love this show to bits and I cried 5 times total during that rewatch, shit this was nice.

I hate that this has over a thousand notes now T.T my legacy on tumblr will be a post I made at 6 am before work while being half asleep

Maybe the assassins would beat the templars for once if they stopped serving the light and started serving cunt.

[servethelight]

I had that exact thought earlier. That man did this Raako Hardeen nonsense, but going undercover and working for Dooku wasn’t possible???

I think the Jedi council should have at least considered sending obi-wan over to Dooku to be like “yes hello I am here for sith training” just to see what would happen

It has been brought to my attention that Star Wars introduced time travel. So here is my prediction for the next big movie thing in 10 years:

Someone travels back in time and changes something (like keeping anakin on the light side or something) and it triggers a whole new story. We either get new actors or the old actors faces get plastered via CGI / AI on other people’s faces. Everyone is gonna hate those movies.

#star wars #movies #cinema #film #new franchise #i’ll come back to this #anakin skywalker #time travel #prediction #prophecy #lmao #everyone is gonna hate this bc they always hate the new movies #as a prequel fan who doesn’t like the sequels: I am no exception #I’m just aware of that

I hate that Obi-Wan got buried under stones and got the closure he needed meanwhile when I got buried under stones and got multiple fractures in my pelvis

#obi wan kenobi #star wars #kenobi series #kenobi show #for context I was once partly buried under stones because of collapsing building at 17 #had a two parts broken of my pelvis and two little splits in my bone #was a fun class trip

[servethelight]

I thought you were about to make a point how the forced exile did make him crumble and broke him, but instead he gets bullied for being a fucking pale faced ginger. I just love this fandom

Arguably the worst thing that Anakin ever indirectly did to Obi Wan was make him live on Tatooine. Not setting him on fire or trying to murder him in other ways or killing all his friends and family.

It was making it so a redhead had to live under not one, but two suns. People wonder why he aged so fast, well there’s your answer. I bet there isn’t a single bottle of SPF on that entire planet.

[servethelight]

I feel like that’s something so integral to a queer experience, so they include it so much bc most of us can relate to it. Most of us had to leave something behind to find happiness, be it your home village, some family members or even your whole family, to find somewhat happiness. That’s why most of us understand the longing to run somewhere else.

when will they learn that it never works

[servethelight]

I absolutely love that you guys are role playing under a post I made half asleep at 6 am before work after looking at my own username. This is so funny haha
