Carl Weathers acting with Baby Yoda is glorious. From "HE'S GONNA EAT ME" to "Do the magic hand thing"... it's hard to be such a bad ass and a goofball at the same time while still acting completely serious. That's some massive acting skill.

That scene with the troopers on the speeder bikes just sitting around talking was amazing. Rewatching this, it felt like something out of Venture Bros. I half expected them to talk in 21 & 24's voices.

There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony. There is no death, there is the The Magic Hand Thing

Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Magic Hand Thing around you. Everywhere. Here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere.

Yeah, I can understand if most people, especially in the more isolated parts of the galaxy, simply dismissed the Jedi and theirs deeds as legends. What I can't understand is how a Mandalorian warrior, a Rebel trooper and a major player in the Bounty Hunters Guild (which would presumably have galaxy-wide influence) could have never even heard of the Jedi. It really strains credibility. My point exactly. I don't doubt that the farmers Mando and Cara protected from the raiders would have little reason to have heard of the Jedi, much less know any details about them. Mando's childhood village was razed by battle droids, so he was raised in territory that was troubled by the Clone Wars, and raised after that by Mandalorians, who as a people have a long and storied history with the Jedi. Karga, according to his backstory, was a magistrate during Imperial times, and given his age it is likely he would've held political office during the Republic. Even on an Outer Rim world he would know about the dealings of the Senate, and the influence the Jedi held with it. Cara was with the Rebel Alliance, and the ties to the Jedi there are even stronger. How many times have we seen some commanding officer utter "May the Force be with us" to their team before battle? And then there's the little matter of the Jedi Knight who destroyed the first Death Star, hero of the Rebellion, who is at least well-known enough to be remembered 35 years later, even if it is as a semi-mythological character. It doesn't break the immersion or make the show any less enjoyable, it's just a minor gripe. I agree. Plus, I haven't completed the game yet, but Fallen Order makes it clear Jedi were hugely known. Like the Empire are open about huntinh them down. And yiu hear NPCs discussing if they were traitors. So jedi being a myth or people not knowing them kinda doesnt make sense. The prequels should have made them a shadowy group who operate in secrecy, or made it clear they never went to the outer rim to explain Luke knowing nothing about them.

I expect Bossk to show up in S2. Despite being a background character, he's appeared in games and such and seems popular.
I can't see any major characters like Luke or Chewie making an appearance.

Alien characters would be easiest to add to the mix because they didn't get a whole lot of screen time in any of the movies, and you avoid having to cast lookalikes or Tarkin somebody to look like their movie counterparts.

I could see getting a holo recording from Lando or Luke, but that would be the extent of any Major Character.
Since they said "Established", I assume it's more along the lines of like Dengar, Bossk or maybe another "disney forgotten" fan favorite like Kyle Katarn. The cast of Rebels is probably available too.
I'd love it if we bumped into an honorable Imperial like Thrawn or Pelleon.

I half expected them to talk in 21 & 24's voices. It was such a funny scene with meta humor about Stormtroopers I could hardly believe it was in a canon Star Wars production. It reminded me of Troops.

Mando handing over to Luke for training seems like the most logical thing to happen, but I definitely don't expect it to go there. I hope we don't learn too much about Yoda's origins. We know basically nothing about him and his species besides the fact that they are long lived and strong in the force. I suppose we can assume they reproduce sexually since there was Yaddle on the Jedi Council. So you know, you're welcome for that visual.

FAN’s been a gift for unwanted sexual images the last few days. I’m open to the “established characters” thing and figure it’ll be some bounty hunters seen in ESB or along those levels. Some are already screaming they’ll be jumping the shark with this, but I have faith in that they know what they’re doing. I’d welcome Thrawn, and Katern figures popping up too. If they can squeeze them in and introduce them properly. Maybe even a..Dash Rendar?😥

That is my canon.
