Cookie: "Adversity is a friendship's truest test." And poor little Artoo goes through some adversity this time around.
Filoni just has to have another Steelers-colored R2 unit. And Pirates and Penguins, for that matter. First time I noticed the three Pittsburgh teams have similar color schemes.
Hammer! Alert: In the EU, an R8 droids is an entirely different kind of droid, not just a slightly different looking R2 unit.
I guess the presence of gundarks indicates they're on the same planet that Obi-Wan and Anakin chased Dooku to in "Jedi Crash".
Seems a little shortsighted to just send the transport off before you know what exactly happened to Kilian and Ponds.
Another Steelers droid bites the dust. Kind of harsh for a team that's won its fan base two championships and made a third trip fairly recently.
I think there was some controversy about Mace not realizing that it was Boba trying to kill him until he saw the helmet. We don't know, though, what the cadets told their superiors or if they even remembered that Lucky's real name was Boba. It seems that they at least told them that one of the cadets was a traitor, since Mace mentions the cadets as he puts the pieces together.
Artoo's antics are pretty fun in this one. As are his little laughs.
I've always wanted to see one of those clone/stormtrooper grenades used for something.
Shades of Episode II with the Slave I pursuing a Jedi starfighter.
Nice move on the Hyperspace rings. Why does Artoo even need an organic pilot?
I like this episode a little more this time around. I think the first time it seemed too much like a side trip, but I realize it's a little more balanced.
I used to think that Boba wore Jango's repainted helmet. Clearly, that isn't the case.
The return of Plo's Bros! All right! Too bad they shoot him down in a couple of years.
The Endurance lived up to its name. It lasted for quite a while.
Next, Boba's plot reaches its climax in "Lethal Trackdown"!
