Status Updates From Star Wars: Darth Maul: Shad...

Well, that was a surprising end. Darth Maul does have a flair for the dramatic. Do all Sith have that?

Ha! The perfect secret rendezvous: below a meeting of senators. And Lorn Pavana will probably have a coincidental meeting with one Naboo senator that will save his butt from the pursuing Sith Lord.

Three stuns to the back and Maul was only out for a few seconds. Lol

The slimy mother$@%#&@^@%

Whaaaaaat? A piece of the Force-resistant creature? When did he have time to get this?

So, not a total loss. Lorn is lucky he has a droid with perfect recall after being frozen as well.

Short-term memory loss from the carbon freezing? Oh, that's convenient and a pity. All that character growth for nothing.

We're seeing hints of Maul's overconfidence and tunnel vision that he has in battle. He is not fully aware of his surroundings, which is what his opponents exploit. First, Darsha, then Obi-Wan on Naboo. I'm trying to recall if he had the same problem in TCW, Rebels, and the new show.

36 hours or more with Darsha was all Lorn needed to flip from hating the Jedi to caring about her. I love it.

I like how in this flashback to a lightsaber training session with Yoda, it still demonstrates Yoda as someone who uses slowness of speed and heightened reflexes to avoid lightsaber strikes from his fellow Council members rather than using the Force to propel him and enhance his speed. AOTC is still a year away.
