Lots of Indy References here The whole arc itself was pretty much "Temple of Doom". The sacerfices, the tribesman, Talzin pretty much being Mola Ram. Then Jar Jar, Mace and Queen where Indy, Short Round and Willy. Short Round shouts "Jones" Mace shouts "Binks". Jar Jar running from the tribesman.... I also remember the one in Order 66 where the droid says "Look what you did. I can't believe what you did.". And there's probably more I'm forgetting.

Yeah, the Temple of Doom feel in Part 1 was really big. And seeing Talzin fight was awesome, I really wish we could see more of her and her plan.

Part 1: 7/10 Part 2: 7/10
Even though I felt these episodes where pretty needless and could have been better spent on maybe a Maul arc if they had a few more months...

I think the most surprising part about this arc was that Jar Jar kissed someone... Seeing Talzin actually fight was awesome though, she fought pretty well. And the trivia says her story isn't over yet (of course we already knew this), so it seems like they're either taunting us or conclusion to her story will be revealed in other ways, maybe in the Darth Maul comic or something.

I really liked this arc. Mace Windu and Jar Jar were a really cool (and funny) duo i never expected to see, just like Jar Jar having a girlfriend (wich caught me by suprise but in a good way ) Overall this arc has some of the best animation in my opinion and while this arc is mostly a set up for future episodes about Talzin's plans (that we will never see) This was also a great arc harking back to the Season 1 days of the show. Did anyone notice how this arc almost had none original music and re-used a lot of other tracks, especially Season 1. I'm not saying it is bad though because the music is all good if not great but it was just something that i noticed. However i disliked the use of Rodia's theme as the Bardotta theme aswell.

Yeah, I am kind of sad because most of the episodes were 22 minutes long and this one was only 20 minutes long, we could of had a 2 minute longer fight scene.

This arc was surprisingly good, IMO. I agree, when I heard Jar Jar was gonna be in this I was like "oh Potato is Awesome me". But the whole arc was nice. I feel like it was better on a lot of aspects more than the Clovis arc. The imagery and visuals in this arc were amazing. Here is a spoiler that sorta revelals other things about the other arcs, but this is one of the reasons why I liked this arc. {Spoiler} The one thing I had a small problem on this Bonus content is that 3 of the arcs besides this one were about Dooku and Sidious behind the scenes of their plots manipulating people. This arc was kind of refreshing from all the big politics and stuff.

Atleast now we know where Jar Jar most likely went after Ep III or the Senate

Plot twist: Talzin is an illusion created by Sidious to manipulate people even more. It makes sense. Talzin can vanish at random moments... because she isn't real. Talzin helped Ventress at attacking Dooku so Sidious could test him, to make sure he's a worthy and loyal apprentice. Talzin created Savage to track down Maul... so Sidious didn't have to look for him himself. Then Talzin repaired Maul's legs... so he could kill some Jedi and to give the Republic a reason to invade Mandalore, and all other neutral systems (which would make the Jedi look bad). He could also have alerted Dooku of Ventress's presence on Dathomir to get rid of Ventress for good. In this arc Talzin almost made a prophecy that would bring darkness to the universe come true... because Sidious is a Sith Lord, so it would benefit him. In the Yoda arc Sidious is using "magic" similar to that of Talzin... So... Talzin is Palpatine.

Plot twist: Talzin is an illusion created by Sidious to manipulate people even more. Although she wasn't Talzin in flesh and blood in this episode (There are hints she is an illusion in this one) I will not say Sidious had anything to do with it. It is just a illusion by the real Talzin herself somewhere else in the galaxy.

The Disappeared - 8/10 The Ritual - 8/10
I refuse to call second episode "The Disappeared Part 2" because in 6 years time CW never did this and i don't like how they suddenly do it now. I have just dubbed it "The Ritual"

I thinkt "The Ritual" is better because the episode is mainly build around it. In the first half they have to get there and in the second half they have to stop it.

My theory is simple,
This was Talzin, but not in flesh and blood. It was obvious from the moment she walked out of her ship that green smoke sometimes started coming off her and she turned a bit less visable. This was never before seen on her in any episode. You might say it is becase she is weaker now, but there is no indication of that and she still had all her strength when we last saw her in Revenge. This was not Talzin in flesh and blood, but a powerful illusion conjured by her magicks.

I enjoyed this arc but I wish Mace and Jar Jar had more time to talk.

And I'm guessing this would have been a 1-hour special event. Maybe a mid season finale.

I think it would have been cool if later they has Jar Jar go through some incident they changed his character for the better.
