That was great! I really can't wait for more!
On behalf of the producers and crew, you're welcome.I want to thank this show for reminding me how much I love Chopper.
So is that Ezra under the helmet?
Since this is essentially a prequel now, we know that Thrawn isn't going to succeed long. Probably beyond Season 1 and into a movie. But ultimately he will be defeated in plenty of time for Snoke to build up his org. But as I think about it, I really wonder what Thrawn or the people seeking him have in mind. We saw in Mando 3 that there is an organized Imperial remnant that wants to get some things done, but what do they want to do? Would Thrawn become Emperor? Do they feel like the Empire didn't really NEED and Emperor and they are just a better form of government?
The thing about Empires is that, like a great bard once sang, "everybody wants to rule the world." The Remnant council only exists because none of them are powerful enough (or physically within reach) to knife each other in the back and take back the galaxy. They need an advantage (like a tactical genius, a massive fleet, or a supernaturally-empowered godking) --and once they succeed in breaking the Republic, they will immediately turn their attention to each other until the last warlord standing declares themself the new Emperor.We saw in Mando 3 that there is an organized Imperial remnant that wants to get some things done, but what do they want to do?

I read the original Thrawn trilogy as they came out and loved it, but I remember enough to look back now and realize that having more Star Wars was what I loved. There is some pretty dumb stuff in there.
I mean, there's no guarantee that Thrawn and Ezra are actually going to make it back to the GFFA. Having the whole plot roadtrip to another galaxy would be a very convenient way to just skip over the whole Sequel Mess. Maybe they coincidentally get back just after the First Order collapses.

Fascists are always the same.
