Ugh they are killing Maul off? So boring and pointless. Should have left him as an open end for future Star Wars series and movies... don't kill him off in this crappy show... Maul needs to go, he should have stayed dead from TPM anyways... He doesn't need any more movies or series

They have been throwing him at us for 4 years now, he really isn't all that interesting in a timeline where we know he cannot actually accomplish anything because he's right in the middle of the movies

The problem is that while it could be cool.... it just doesn't work. Mauls identity is around Kenobi, Sidious, Sith and Jedi. Which is the main focus of the movies. As evident in TCW, Sidious is not going to tolerate having him running around and neither would the Jedi prior to Order 66. TCW and Rebels can work because it focuses more on the conflicts of the war and the politics of it, something not as focused upon in the movies. Separatists vs Republic, Empire vs Rebels. It expands the canon in meaningful ways, where as Maul is kind of fan service at the end of the day.

I personally would have preferred Maul vs. Obi-Wan in an Obi-Wan standalone movie. That's obviously not going to happen now, so I'll take this. But I agree that Maul's time has come to an end. He had a good run, but we've now seen him in one movie, two different shows, and three decades (in canon) of content.
For what it's worth, his death won't mean that it's the end for Maul stories. We could always get new stories involving Maul that take place before his death.

I'm curious where Bo-Katan will come in though... it looks like the Darksaber stuff with Sabine will only be like two episodes, so maybe she'll just make a cameo at the end of that arc? It also looks like Sabine's mother is Rook Kast, who appeared in the Son of Dathomir comic. Their helmets have the same design and are just different colors.

Makes me wonder if they'll talk some more on Maul's leadership, such as what exactly occurred before he wound up on Malachor. After all, from the looks of things, their story seems to completely revolve around leadership

Their trailers are always so good but the episodes are always disappointing........
But damn Obi-Wan must've smoked a shit ton of midichlorians to look like that... lol jk but I was hoping and actually expecting that they would show a younger Obi-Wan but they are using the ANH version... I guess it makes sense since Rebels is closer to that and it's cool to see ANH Kenobi animated. I hope they tried getting Ewan or JAT first though... They said they wanted Ewan to voice him on the show I feel like he would've been up for it. Maybe JAT's voice wouldn't have matched... but it should be the same as the hologram.... whatever

Theory time... I think that shot of the Ghost and some Y-Wings retreating from the TIEs in fire is one of the last parts of the finale. I think that they're on Atollon and it gets base delta zeroed. Then in Season 4 we'll see them move to Yavin IV.

I think the last part with Kenobi and Maul is the little teaser for the finale. Chopper Base episodes last season when episodes 19 and 20 I think. So I think they likely abandon that spot in the same episodes this season.

They actually had a lot of shots from the finale (the new Inquisitor, Maul, Ahsoka and the others on Malachor, and Ahsoka fighting Vader). But I'm just not sure if Maul vs. Obi-Wan will be an episode on its own. I feel like they'll try to tie it back to the main storyline somehow.

Well they already have tied Obi-Wan into the main story... they think he's the key to defeating the Sith and they know Maul is after him

Why do I feel like mauls only purpose in rebels is to tie up his fate... this sucks... like I wouldn't be surprised if we only get 1 maul episode in which he dies...

Also with maul most likely dead, will we see the return of inquisitors in Season 4? Maul replaced them as the force sensitive villain this season.
Season 1: Grand inquisitor Season 2: Seventh Sister, Fifth Brother, Eigyh Brother Vader Season 3: Maul Season 4: Inquisitors???

Not confirmed, but it appears season 4 is the planned end for the show. There's no reason to cancel a Disney XD tbh... Star Wars Rebels has to be by far their best money maker...

The two parter was pretty good, I thought the Geonosian was trying to draw the Death Star at first, maybe it still was idk
Saw was cool but we didn't get to see his injuries like we thought so that is still up in the air for future content. They kept the Geonosians alive for possible future stuff.
Also the best line "He's no Skywalker", "I heard that"

Actually, I found myself more drawn towards the line "Stupid sand, get everywhere..." About time they poked fun at that Otherwise, I liked the rest. Saw's clearly showing some signs that he will eventually crack and I like how the Geonosians get some hope (although, was it me, or did Click Clack seem a bit off model for a Geonosian...). Good stuff, really great mood attached to it. As for the circle within a circle thing, I'm assuming the ending was a case of severe mistranslation. It was supposed to be the Death Star, but the Imperial symbol fit the bill first. It's kinda stupid of the Rebellion to not have anyone with Geonosian lingual ability on either teams when you think about it

I know I already said this but I am I the only one concerned with the lack of Maul in the trailer? Does this mean not a lot of maul episodes...

Wait so where is the Death Star.... Do they keep moving it around so no one finds it? Still don't know why Saw is becoming so crazy.. There should be a book about him. I wonder if he'll show up again maybe then we could see his injuries. I honestly want a full political episode Rebels was supposed to explore the Rise of the Empire era but we really have no idea what's going on in the galaxy at this point... The Empire eradicates an entire species and are committing other atrocities? What's goin on??? Where's the Emperor? What's Vader up to? How's life for regular citizens? Bounty hunters?? Krennic??? Is pod racing still a thing? ?? Focusing on this lame ass group of motherfuckers is irritating I want to know what else is happening
