Looks great. Why cut Maul talking to Jesse about the grand plan? That was always one of the highlights of the episode for me.
We get most of that exposition in Maul’s interactions with Ahsoka and I didn’t want to detract from those scenes. The whole arc hinges on Maul luring the Jedi (ultimately the wrong Jedi) to Mandalore so the focus should be on that dynamic.
Maul revealing the nature of the grand plan to a clone didn’t feel right for his character. Clones are beneath him.
Sounds great either way. I’ve always been a big fan of yours. What’s next in this series for you? What’re your major plans for the remaining content? Any thoughts on an alternative opening movie? As you have, I’ve thought this content to death, so if there’s any valuable perspectives I can offer I’d be happy to.
