Even in the last arc of Clone Wars, she had a positive vibe around here even when things were going horribly wrong. But Rebels Ashoka, as mentioned above, was much more somber.
There's always been people on all fringes with abhorrent views, and the mainstream people have always shunned them. The problem here is that some of these views are slipping into the mainstream.
The first episode was a little slow taken by itself, but was fine if you watched the first two back to back. Probably why they dropped them both.
I think Filoni is going for Return of the Jedi style with the production to emphasize that this happens pretty soon after Endor, but it is still very much his style.
I like that they are exploring the more mystical aspects from Clone Wars and Rebels, something other than the standard dark vs light side of the force.
Just received this guy today. ive got a barrel to mate it to that needs a little reshaping and a slab of walnut in the barn that i think should work to build a nifty little northwest trade gun. This lock is so much bigger than the one on my Pedersoli.
But first I need to finish refinishing the stock on my Pedersoli before deer season gets here.
In my experience in driving in California, it doesn't matter if you are in the best sports car in the world pushing it to the max around the curves in a mountain two lane road, there is always some asshole in a Mercedes Sprinter van or something ridiculous riding your tail and flashing their lights at you because you won't pull over to let them pass, despite there not being a place for you to pull over. But on the bright side, if you run off the road and fall down some rocky gorge without a guard rail, they will turn on their flashers for a second to thank you as long as you were quick about it.
I've yet to actually do it, but I've heard that different woods can make different shades of brown. For the past two or three years I've been working on assembling a period outfit for the 1820's/30's that I wear when hunting with my muzzleloaders, so need some brain tan to make a buckskin hunting shirt.
You're welcome to join us on our family land in East Texas on the weekends I am out there. It doesn't get hunted much other than me and the occasional brother in law or compadre. I don't get out there as much as I'd like to scout out where the deer are, and they aren't as thick as they are in South Texas or the Hill Country, but you can get lost in the pines looking for venison. Or if you want a 'coon skin cap, see above. I've got plenty of trash pandas. The only caveat is that if you kill a deer, we skin it extra carefully and I get to keep the skin so I can brain tan it.
No mention of how they pretty much camped out in the same spot for half the season and then magically telephoned halfway to their destination? Or the path they supposedly followed? It had its good moments, but the story structure needed some serious work.
If they can't take Mariupol before the rains hit, what are the possibilities that they can get close enough to rain terror on the land route to rain enough terror down from the skies to effectively shut off Russia' land route? Obviously that would lead to some intense fighting, but it seems like our cluster munitions have mad a huge difference in the last couple of weeks. Will the increased production across Europe and America be able to supply them with the artillery they need to lay seige on the area without actually holding it?
I actually looked up what actual armorers have said in news interviews immediately after the incident, and pretty much all of them said the opposite of what's been said here as far as the actor's duty to check the weapon and where to point it, etc. That said, I don't see the purpose of charging him. Our criminal justice system should be about rehabilitation and not retaliation.
To get a decent range, you'd probably need to fire a solid projectile that then turns into a lot of projectiles. So you'd need to have some way of determining range and then some sort of smart fuse type system. Even an old school type punt gun probably couldn't generate enough velocity to be effective at the ranges you'd need it to.
