Welcome back everyone this is going to be my star wars bad batch trailer video this is going to
be the next star wars series they're dropping episodes for starting on may the 4th which is
star wars day so may the 4th be with you there's a whole bunch of easter eggs here i'll explain where
this fits in the timeline and which other characters are going to show up like those
mandalorian characters crossing over from the live action series to animation which doesn't
happen very often usually characters go the other way from animation to live action like ahsoka
like going from the ashley eckstein version of ahsoka to the rosario dawson version of ahsoka
during the mandalorian season too but if you're brand new to the channel be sure to subscribe
to get all the videos and obviously spoiler warning for everything that happened during
the mandalorian season 2 if you haven't seen those episodes yet also there was some casting
news for the obi-wan kenobi series they're going to be filming that soon it'll premiere next year
and they've already announced that hayden christensen is coming back as both darth vader
and anakin skywalker but they also just announced that they're bringing back joel edgerton's version
of owen lars and his version of aunt peru for the series so obviously they're just trying to
tease a young version of luke but they haven't announced who they've cast to play the really
young kid version of luke skywalker there was all the sebastian stan talk earlier today like
sebastian stan said i would love to play luke skywalker if mark hamill would give his blessing
and then mark hamill separately on his twitter said you know lucasfilm doesn't listen to me when
it comes to casting so i have no say in it but he gave sebastian stan his blessing a long time ago
and then we obviously saw what they did with luke skywalker on the mandalorian season two
i have a feeling that they're gonna keep it that way like they'll just keep the deep fake
version of mark hamill luke skywalker just for continuity's sake and they'll just get better with
the visual effects on that like it looked okay but you feel like they could have done a better job
with his face it was still a badass scene though it was really awesome seeing luke skywalker show
up in the mandalorian after the events of return of the jedi but the bad batch series takes place
literally right after the events of revenge of the sith so it's all about the rise of the empire in
the idea that the clones are slowly dying off or being killed off purposefully by the empire people
like tarkin i'll explain him too because he's not moff tarkin and he's not grand moff tarkin yet but
at this point in the timeline you notice all their armor is still like the white clone trooper armor
they haven't quite transitioned to the classic stormtrooper armor and it sort of implied that
when that happens that's also when most of the clones have died off and they fully gone back to
using regular humans but all these characters are basically the bad batch characters they introduced
during the clone wars episodes the defect clones that also got special abilities because of the
genetic errors in the cloning process a lot of this footage is probably from the first episode
they explained that it was actually going to be 70 minutes long but normally these are half
hour animation episodes in the first episode obviously dropping may the fourth on a tuesday
but regular episodes after that will drop every friday just like normal disney plus episodes
this version of the trailer is meant to give you a much better idea what the story actually is so it
starts with tarkin back on the camino cloning facility being kind of skeptical about their
usefulness and battle like is it really worth it all these special abilities if they're so
disobedient this also lets you know that at this point in the timeline the emperor hasn't
quote unquote shut down the camino in facility although we know that that didn't end up happening
because he wound up cloning himself during rise of skywalker whether or not you want to think about
those movies as canon or not but it was canon at least before that that at some point after the
prequels he formally shut down the camino cloning facility i know there's all these theories about
what's going on with grogu in this secret cloning plot that moff gideon had during the
mandalorian episodes but that's much later in the timeline in a completely separate group of people
it's just that dr perjing had the emblem of the camino cloning facility so at some point
in the future they go back to the camino cloning facility or on the dl and start using that
technology but the whole idea with that is that they're trying to clone force sensitive people
that's a separate plot from what's happening with the regular clones here in the bad batch we'll see
all that stuff play out during the mandalorian season 3 in future seasons they administer the
test they just start ripping through all these giant upgraded battle droids they kind of look
like the dark trooper designs from the video games also like the dark troopers that they use during
the mandalorian series although this is a slightly different versions so these might just be the
prototype versions of what would eventually become the dark troopers hunter says his squad's nothing
but trouble as he speeds away from a merchant on coruscant there's a lot of footage on coruscant in
general in all the trailers but then later during this chase scene you see he's actually going after
ming nas fenix shan character who's wearing the exact same armor she was during the mandalorian
season one and season two so ming na is voicing the character like i said going from live action
to animation sort of the reverse what you would expect she was a bounty hunter for all these
years it's also possible that boba fett shows up because he has a strong connection to her in the
future even though they might not cross paths in the past here at this point in the timeline right
after the events of revenge of the sith boba fett is still very very young but he's kind of coming
into his own as a bounty hunter himself so he would have been active around this period you see
them taking out more battle droids on a separate planet which might just be remnants from the end
of the war like hold out separatists or warlords trying to repurpose them for their own personal
armies then back on kamino they meet another young clone who like them seems like he has some genetic
abnormalities notice he has blonde hair he has that special head piece just showing you that
he is different from other clones but then after things seem like they go south and tarkin orders
the regular clone troopers not the full-blown imperial stormtroopers yet to hunt them down
and destroy them the bad batch offers to take this new clone with them like hey kid you want to come
with us then you see them on that separate planet amidst the wreckage of all the republic cruisers
which the empire is now slowly in the process of evolving into the imperial era of star destroyers
then you see them in some other episode on some other planet looking like these clone troopers are
trying to take over the area but the bad batch uses one of these other walkers to attack the
clone troopers all while you get this voiceover from another new character who's all about adapt
or die which is essentially the character arc for the bad batch and sort of describes the fate of
all clones they have to decide in the rise of the empire whether or not they're going
to adapt to the new political climate the state of the galaxy or die with the past
literally die like the other clones wind up dying off slowly over time i think by about 10 or 15
years after the events of revenge of the sith most of the clones had died off and just for reference
the events of the obi-wan kenobi series with hayden christensen and ewan mcgregor coming back
that takes place about 10 years after revenge of the sith one of the big theories about their
characters that i really like too i don't know if they're going to pay this off during the series
is the whole idea of who saved grogu from the jedi temple during order 66. a lot of people think that
it's r2d2 which i think is a solid theory i'll explain his connection to grogo too because
obviously they shared that scene at the end of the mandalorian season too but r2 would have
had history with grogu going back years that a lot of people think that it was a sith or some people
even think that it may have been anakin skywalker himself although they've been all kinds of memes
about him hiding out during order 66 with people editing him in using deep fakes to all these
classic prequel scenes but i think the idea is that eventually as they slowly tease grogu's story
out on the mandalorian season 3 future seasons the other spin-off series like the ahsoka series
eventually we will learn who wound up saving him but they don't want to reveal all of his backstory
right away you have to remember that grogu is the same age as anakin skywalker although obviously
he's dead after the events of return of the jedi and grogu is still alive but grogu is in his 50s
now that's about how old anakin skywalker would have been but grogu actually came to the jedi
temple years before anakin skywalker came to the jedi temple so eventually when anakin skywalker
came along and r2d2 was there with him while he was training as a jedi with obi-wan kenobi
they would have run into grogu who would have also been training under other jedi masters the
way ahsoka explains it after she got done talking to grogu is that grogu had studied under many jedi
masters and spent a long time at the jedi temple so there's no way that they wouldn't have bumped
into him at some point when they were running around the jedi temple during the prequels when
anakin skywalker was growing up you also have to remember that ahsoka also unwittingly helped darth
maul escape at the end of the clone wars so he's also in the process of building back his power
base in the crimson dawn crime syndicate right now so when this series is happening we're still
a couple years before the events of solo a star wars story based on the color of his insignia here
tarkin actually looks like he's a major general at this point also during this period the brand
newly minted sith lord darth vader would have been going around the galaxy hunting down the rest of
the jedi that escaped the initial wave of order 66. if you haven't read the comic book there's a
vader rising comic that basically explains a lot of this storyline this part of the timeline for
him he basically just goes around killing as many jedi and force sensitives as he can find
one of the reasons why he wants to get rid of all these force-sensitive people even if they're
willing to turn is because he doesn't want the emperor to be able to train another replacement
so even this early after anakin skywalker's turn to darth vader he's already trying to work against
the emperor he never trusted him at any point if that wasn't clear and the emperor on the
other side of this equation also always expected darth vader to betray him so all these years all
the way up to the events of return of the jedi they were playing this cat and mouse
game trying to out maneuver each other maybe we'll see a little bit of that happening during
the obi-wan kenobi series when we get hayden christensen's darth vader storyline remember
this december the book of boba fett episodes are going to start releasing around christmas week
and then after that we'll get the mandalorian season 3 episodes but they haven't given us an
exact release date for that it'll just be sometime early next year while you wait for everything
