A New Look at the Final Episodes of Star Wars Rebels

We are just under a week away from the final seven episodes of Star Wars Rebels and for all of those who have been itching for something to hold them over till the premiere next Monday, you’re in luck. Dave Filoni sat down with Clayton Sandell of ABC News to talk a little bit about the series’ end and to show off a clip titled “Jedi Night”.

 

The clip shows just how far Ezra and Kanan have come since the series began and how their dynamic as master and apprentice has changed. Kanan asks Ezra to take the lead on the mission to save Hera because he is too emotional to set up an effective plan.

 

 

 

 

This is a great scene between the two of them and I love the character growth we’ve witnessed between them this season. Filoni calls it a “big decision moment” and Kanan knows it’s best to not take the lead on this one.

 

In a particularly cryptic note that will only fuel speculation that Kanan will die before season’s end, Sandell points out this scene could foreshadow a familiar twist in Star Wars – the wise master dying and handing over the reins to his student.

 

Star Wars Rebels returns February 19th. We’re so close!

    Hopefully the plan will not include Ezra and a jetpack.

      Not every Jedi can be a great pilot, right?

        True. I just expect they would do it better than Jar Jar would.

          See, here’s my opinion on Jar Jar.

          He was a cartoon character. Was stupid as all get out in the Prequels.

          In the Clone Wars? Annoying as he was, it fit.

          Rebels is a cartoon at the end of the day. Stuff like Ezra and the jetpack are expected.

          Not saying I like it; I didn’t. But it does fit the aesthetic.

          I used to love Rebels. Season 4 has almost ruined it for me.

            Agreed on all counts. I actually kinda liked Jar Jar in the Clone Wars.

          He’s not big. Everyone else is small.

    You, know; I have to give big props to Dave for this. I will be upfront; I think Rebels is a mixed bag. It has good characters, but to me I always felt like the storylines were a mixed bag; with Season and the second half of Second season being the best; and Season three being awful.

    But this development, I actually very much enjoy. It shows that Kanan has more than embraced his role as a Jedi. Something I believe was preluded to in second season when Hera was injured(Correct me if I am wrong). So it is really nice to see this continued onward and fleshed out.

    Because, that is good character development. Character starts in one place, character goes through trials and tribulations in the face of a big problem/ issue and character is affected by said experience and changes.

    In essence, a character arc. It’s stuff like this that make me respect Dave a lot, even if I don’t agree with his choices. And why I wish he was in charge of LF. Because, with Rebels and TCW; I think he’s more than earned his keep and is a gold mine.

    ‘Ok, I gotta plan. FORCE PROJE….’

    ‘NO.’

    Really looking forward to the remaining episodes.
    I’m in the “all Jedi must die before ANH” camp. So I’m hoping Ezra meets his end too. It would be a real cop out if he lives.

      I am hoping to see something more later on down the road from Ezra. I hope he survives somehow.

        I’m not saying it makes for a good story here in this moment, but I always wondered if a force user could get trapped in carbonite and ride out 50+ years?

          Hmm. I would assume that all aging stops in carbonite freezing. Wookieepedia says before the invention of the hyperdrive, they used carbonite to endure long voyages. So I would assume its possible. It also says that some force users could break free of carbonite.

    Kanan and Ezra have to die.
