first off, having Manny Jacinto play this kind of bumbling idiot guy only to turn around and make him our antagonist -- great play
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
I did kind of suspect he was a bit shadier than we realized but
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
anyways I love how the girlies on Twitter recognized him even with the mask just cause of his fuckin arms like HELLO WELCOME TO THE GUN SHOW
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
I'm not a stickler for lore tbh I barely know how most of the shit in star wars works and nor do I honestly give a fuck - a canon that's over 50 years old is never going to 100% have every new piece of canon line up perfectly and they're always gonna be adding things or changing things
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
so most of the whining about everything to me just looks like that -- whining.
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
and honestly a lot of it just seems like thinly veiled excuses to be racist/misogynistic/whatever
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
since they're not really doing anything that hasn't been done. its fine with Mando not 1000% following lore or not having all that Jedi and Skywalker worship but here its wrong? lol nahhh

the lightsaber fights and martial art fighting is so good

are both of the opinion that he's Ren. so much of what he says has callbacks to Ren in the Rise of Kylo Ren comics and I did catch a hint of Kylo's motif in there
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
I do not think they're gonna confirm it right off tho or he hasn't picked up the title but like its the same fuckin helmet basically
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
I can fix him
space dragons
I think he's Ren and he hasn't taken the title yet
space dragons
froths
StupidSexyVโ der
no really that was what I've been saying since we saw the mask!
StupidSexyVโ der
(Dental Ren is his name)
space dragons
I've seen Smilo Ren
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
Dental Ren a hahaha
StupidSexyVโ der
space dragons
: Lol that one is great
space dragons
puts on clown hat

SMILO REN
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
when its not a spoiler I will change that to my handle ahahaha
StupidSexyVโ der
I love it
Nox
honestly what even is the lore complaint? Is it about the Rule of Two stuff? Because that hasn't been faithfully followed for several years of Star Wars
Nox
like it's not two if even the apprentices keep taking apprentices
Nox
(plus I strongly suspect Smilo Ren here found a Sith holocron at some point rather than got formal training under a Sith master)
StupidSexyVโ der
no it's about Mundi going "there had been a Sith in a 1000 years!"
space dragons
StupidSexyVโ der
: all that means is he didn't know it or this guy isn't a sith
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
It's all about Ki-Adi-Mundi being in the show in general.
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
Because most people assumed he had the same aging as a human.
StupidSexyVโ der
there was some legends thing that said he was born 50 years before TPM but Legends. we be never been given a canon birthrate OR age
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
I've seen one person use a Topps card as official proof he was supposed to be 70 in TPM.
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
I also used to own a CCG Topps card that said Han was Force sensitive. 
StupidSexyVโ der
lol exactly!
space dragons
Ki-adi is a weird alien dude isn't he
space dragons
Do we even know that was him in The Acolyte? And if yes, whatever, he could be over 100. He's a weird alien dude.
space dragons
Also this is a minor-ass character, glup shitto etc!!! Who caaaaares
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
I think he was mentioned by name. Plus cone head is pretty distinctive.
space dragons
Yeah but presumably he's not the only one of his species
space dragons
I also don't give a fuck let him be old as balls!!!!
StupidSexyVโ der
he's in the credits as Ki-Adi Mundi so yeah
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
This is also the same dude that was allowed to procreate because there were so few males of his species.
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
why do people care this much LMAO like who even is this guy??
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
I seriously didn't know until I heard people complain about this
๐น๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐น
then again I gave less of a shit about Ackbar dying too like he's a fucking meme character are you really upset about him??
StupidSexyVโ der
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
: and had several wives
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
Yup. Several wives, a bunch of kids. He just couldn't be attached to them.
StupidSexyVโ der
iirc, one of the Clone Wars books he admits he struggles with that? and that bitty Anakin reminded SO MUCH of himself in ways he disliked (/ his flaws/attachment issues) and so decided to be a Bastard about it
๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ธ๐๐
I don't know which Clone Wars book it was, but I do remember hearing that Anakin did remind him of himself.
