2022-11-18 23:35:23 +0000 UTCSo, maybe you have realised by now, but here, the people from Raxus are being called separatists not because they are against the empire (which they are), but because they WERE separatists during the Clone Wars. There are of course, people on the republic side that oppose the empire, but it is only natural that most of the separatists keep opposing the empire too, as they see the empire as the sucessor of the republic they were fighting. So, the title, "common ground" is about The Bad Batch, who were on the republic side in the Clone Wars, helping a separatist leader, who was their enemy during the war. Also, we did see Raxus in The Clone Wars, it was the capital of the separatists and the seat of their senate. Ahsoka went with Padme to Raxus to start peace talks with Mina Bonteri.

And Echo saying “live to fight another day” was really sad because those were Hardcases’ last words to Jesse and Fives during the Umbarra ARC💔😭. And I think someone maybe even me, has mentioned this before but those to guys that are always in Cid’s bar were in the Pyke Prison with Trace, Rafa, and Ahsoka in Clone Wars Season 7. I’m really excited to watch the next to episode’s because they are probably 2 of the best ones I think.

2022-11-18 18:32:41 +0000 UTCYou should 100% react to Wall-E! It's one of my favorite PIXAR films. Any PIXAR reaction would be fantastic!

2022-11-18 05:10:32 +0000 UTCThere are a handful of them, yes. The only one that I really want to do a reaction for is Wall-E... been meaning to make the time to watch that for years and years and just haven't for some reason (probably because I love droids/robots so much and I've been told it's a sad movie LOL). I may put that in the December line-up to go in between MCU stuff. And hey, that's fine! Filler-y episodes aren't for everyone.

2022-11-17 20:52:02 +0000 UTCI agree with you that I would have liked to see more of Echo's feelings about that. I feel like that might have went over my head a bit. The next episode will be going out tomorrow morning so enjoy!

2022-11-17 20:50:05 +0000 UTCThat monsters university comment was so out of left field haha🤣 On the topic of Pixar, are there any Pixar films you haven’t seen that you’d consider doing reactions to? Or are you a die hard Pixar fan like me thats seen them all 😅 Anywho, great reaction KL, I personally wasn’t huge on this episode as it honestly felt like filler in the grand scheme of things and much like in clone wars, I feel like they could’ve dedicated time to morre important things like crosshairs side of things. Not a bad episode by any means! But not one I’ll remember

2022-11-17 19:51:32 +0000 UTCI think it is understandable it was hard for Echo to work with the Senator of the Separatist capital, he was captured and abused by the separatist military and changed forever. It was even under played in that episode, i would have like more talks about it. That was one part of the common ground, the Batch working with people they fought a war against. The other part was the Hunter and Omega dynamic. I really liked that Hunter is protective but he has to see the value she adds by now. It is a hard balance. Cid is proving to be an interesting character, challenging Hunter on his ideas. I am looking forward to watch your reaction to the next episode because it is one impacted heavily by your watch order and i have never seen anyone do it like that so it will be interesting.
