Great posts this week, especially concerning “Star Wars Reads Day.”
In the new Clone Wars, 1min. 22sec. in we see the tentacle haired character just killed in the last episode of the Clone Wars by Savage Opress. Maybe the character sitting in the jedi council in this new episode is not the one from the last, but they look identical.
The episodes that make up the Onderon story arc were produced before “Revival” which explains why Yoda has his old character model and Adi Gallia is present on Jedi Council. However, the Season Four trailer led us to believe Anakin was attacking a Senate Guard but in the actual episode it was a bounty hunter. If they could do that I don’t understand why they didn’t remove Adi Gallia in this episode. Wookieepedia says “A War on Two Fronts” takes place before to the events of “Revival” but there are no sources to confirm it so it’s just a guess/theory someone has come up with.
Hondo will appear in this story arc at some point (also with his old character model) and bring Ahsoka a “gift” of rocket launchers likely taken from the wreckage of Maul’s crashed cargo ship which indicates that these episodes take place after the premiere. Until an official explanation is given we should assume it’s something the production accidentally overlooked and it’s therefore a blooper.
That new jedi is Stass Ali (She gets killed by Clone Troopers in Revenge Of The Sith while on Speeder Bikes.)
Stass Allie doesn’t have a character model yet because Dave Filoni would have said something about it like he did with Oppo Rancisis (who won’t appear until Season Six). But if it was Stass Allie then it would be STUPID because it would mean TCW production crew got lazy and used Adi Gallia’s character model for her.
i know this Stass Allie thing is silly ‘cuz they nevername her or edit the Adi Gallia appearcene so everyone thinks that it is the same character
I had to tell my bro who Stass Allie was,they should edit her character so people recognise her as a different character to Adi Gallia.
Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to say if your confused now….YOUR NOT THE ONLY BLIMMIN’ ONES!
sorry ’bout the blimmin’ but I’m mad at Stass Allie.
Anyway gotta go so from me,my bezzies,my boyfriend and everyone else on Corusant with me
