My thoughts about episode 2 of season 3 and my predictions for the following episodes.
(spoilers right here… if I’m right, of course!)
The person Maul is talking about at the end (“He lives!!!”) will be Snoke.
But Snoke will only be a ghost and will not look like the Snoke in Episode 7.
Maybe we will not even know his name at all.
At one point he will take possession of Ezra’s body and will be known as Snoke.
So for now I think the theory about Snoke “being” Ezra is true, from a certain point of view.
I would had that it also could be a reason about why Snoke is a CG character. Since Ezra is a CG character maybe they thought it would be logical to also make Snoke CG. (Honestly I think they look alike, kind of.)
I don’t see Rebels finishing with a “simple” death of Ezra. It needs to be something that serves a purpose.No, I think it’s pretty clear that he was talking about Obi-Wan. Ezra was looking for the key to destroying the Sith, and he says that he sees “twin suns,” most likely referring to Tatooine. They were looking for different things, but they both saw Tatooine. That’s why at the end Ezra says he wasn’t sure if he was seeing what he wanted or what Maul wanted.
EDIT: I just read another interpretation. Perhaps Ezra said “twin sons”, which could be referring to Maul’s arc in TCW. Maybe Maul was talking about either Savage (I still hate that name, but it’s not like Sidious is a stroke of creative genius either) or Sidious.
Those interpretations are indeed more plausible. Thanks for the heads up on the “two suns” line.
Maul and Obi needs to have a last confrontation for sure and I don’t think it should be done in movies since for the audience who does not follow the “new expanded universe” (or whatever it is called now) Maul is dead. There’re too much things to catch up or to explain in a opening crawl, IMO. So, yes, the Rebels series could be the place for it.
But I still stand that nothing good will happen to Ezra. That little, non-charismatic, annoying character, needs to turn evil or be possessed by an evil force somehow. Or he really serves no purpose in the Star Wars Universe.
