I've listened to this about 247 times. i am not well. The Tantis music motif ON TOP of Omega's theme 馃槱 The Kiners are pulling ZERO punches on the emotional Damage in this season. (and i am obsessed)
Eman is one of us; btw, in the latest con he attended, someone asked him who would have saved if he could have the opportunity to do, like when Ezra saved Ahsoka from Vader, he said he would have saved Tech 馃ス馃槶
i鈥檓 getting emotional about a lot of things ending about bad batch but damn am i gonna miss those cryptic tweets from jennifer and the kiners. that shits been torture for the past three years but man i鈥檇 do anything for them to continue
So I was listening to the CX-2 theme in the desperate hope there鈥檇 be a leitmotif clue somewhere, and I obviously didn鈥檛 find one, but what I did notice was the drums.
The beginning is just over thirty seconds straight of drums in this really erratic pattern that sounds eerily like knocking. And there鈥檚 another section in the middle that鈥檚 nothing but drums in the same knocking pattern. It really does sound like someone banging on a locked door. As if they鈥檙e trapped inside. Trying to get out.
I鈥檝e fully accepted the fact that I鈥檓 probably clutching at straws here but if I鈥檓 onto something then what if they鈥檙e trying to hint to us that there鈥檚 someone trapped inside CX-2
That aside, the fact that he specifically gets his own theme out of all the assassins is just more evidence that this guy out of all of them is has to be narratively significant in some way. Everything points to Tech. The Kiners are geniuses, I wouldn鈥檛 put it past them to leave us the subtlest of subtle clues in the score
Ok I've been a skeptic this whole time but the similarities between the latter half of Battle of the Snipers and Plan 99 have me completely convinced now that CX-2 is Tech. This can't just be a coincidence. I swear it's almost the same music, just with a little techno spin on it.
The Clone X Troopers continue to be some of the most terrifying villains in Star Wars. They invoke the Clones from Legends with their amoral ruthlessness and loyalty to the Empire. I get a feeling that either the main CX Trooper is a brand new Clone or possibly Cody.
Omega copying Crosshair鈥檚 toothpick was a wholesome moment in a dark two parter.
It wouldn鈥檛 be Star Wars without the Wilhelm Scream.
We also got our first normal named Clone Commando (Lieutenant Hilo).
Returning motifs I noticed:
Clone X theme, Clone theme, Crosshair鈥檚 theme, ARC Trooper track/Clone Commando theme, Hemlock鈥檚 theme, and Omega鈥檚 theme
