They’re really awful.
Spoiler:Is it just me or was the big reunion kind of lackluster? Didn't seem to be the script, more like just didn't have energy. Or something. Is this Filoni managing to flatten his actors every time in live action? Because Ahsoka was flat in Mando too.
IMO Eman Esfandi clearly had studied Ezra tho, he had the mannerisms and expressions. Hopefully he put the light saber work in too.
I know the witches are more or less accurate but I kept thinking of the Coneheads from SNL. Dunno if I buy drifting into Thrawn using dark magic but whatever.
So the turtle people are the Ewoks, complete with a baby turtle?
Baylan remains - too cool. He's like the Luthen Rael of the series. Shin is interesting.
Yeah. I guess they went for the natural look. But it sort of diminishes the character, visually.I don't watch previews so I had no idea of how Thrawn would look in live action. I have seen all four seasons of Rebels twice and read the Thrawn trilogy of books when they were first published many moon ago. That said, what a disappointment.
Ray's passing is a tragedy.Mixed thoughts on this one. Liked seeing Thrawn. The arrival of the Chimera was cool. Ray Stevenson continues to be great. Enjoyed the villains overall.
I've posted before that I'm struggling to care about the leads. Sabine was particularly unlikeable in this episode. Her search for Ezra was difficult to get through.
Her reunion with Ezra felt so flat. I felt nothing and didn't care that they were reunited.
Agree with others, Ezra's eyes look weird. Everyone with contacts do.
Something else weird, just an observation, doesn't particularly bother me, but Thrawn looks very puffy and doughy. It's odd because Lars is a pretty thin guy. The costume and face paint must be making him look chubby.
I imagine this episode would be more enjoyable for those that like Sabine and Ezra and care about them meeting each other again.
The guy they got to play Ezra seems like a good choice though.;m
So Baylan is looking for something on this planet. They better wrap that story up quickly, they only have 2 episodes left and with Ray sadly passing away, what are they going to do? Recast? I'm not interested in seeing another actor play the role.

Difficult position for them. Assuming Baylan's story was meant to continue into a 2nd season, after Ray's passing, they now have to recast him, kill him off screen or do as you suggest, film a death scene with a stunt man.Ray's passing is a tragedy.
But the show has an easy out, with all this dark magic stuff and wanting to go to "the source" e.g.
"I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel."
Just have him fall into a hairy pit like Rey only it's some witch thing and he's consumed; maybe even sacrifices himself for Shin. If some stuntman is filmed from the back, and they pull some other tricks, Baylan can have a heroic ending as he deserves.
Ray is the best part of the show and unless his character dies in the show because it was always planned, they're probably going to have to recast. Or do so by rewrites for season 2.I agree, Ray has owned this role and is probably one of the better new characters we've seen in a while in Star Wars. Wonder if they had to alter the story or reshoot some scenes since he passed?
They don't have to kill him if that wasn't the plan. Have him get shot in the face or something and then redesign his look to start wearing some helmet or mask. I'm sure they can then use whomever for the acting and find a voice actor that sounds like him.Ray is the best part of the show and unless his character dies in the show because it was always planned, they're probably going to have to recast.

If they havd had to do some sort of emergency fiming to kill him off onscreen, hope its respectful.
Did you miss the part where this is leading into a movie?Unless these last episodes are over an hour each, I cannot see this ending all the stories inva justifed way.
I smell a cliff hanger.
Curious as to what the witches are up to, they're definitely trying to play Thrawn but I don't think it's going to work out for them.
-Is freaking Ezra Bridger worth all this angst? Is he really?! I say leave him over in the other galaxy and enjoy the peace.
