Can you make a video from the bad batch season 2
Thrawn’s one of the few Star Wars villains that you can genuinely respect.
Yes, he occasionally does some very evil things. But he never does them purely for evil’s sake.
He’s not like Sidious or Vader.
He’s not insane, or broken, or sadistic.
He just knows that he’s the smartest man in the room, and behaves accordingly.
Didn't he originally join the Empire to see whether they were a threat to his race the Chiss?
@@Xehanort10 He joined the Empire to use its resources to keep the Chiss from annihilation. His other purpose was to make sure that Palpatine didn't turn against the Chiss and try to conquer them. The Chiss as a whole saw the Empire as a lesser evil to work with considering the alternative was death.
I think old canon essentially implied that the Chiss knew of the Vong and determined an alliance with the empire was their best shot of survival.
@@mish375 & to Markf, Thrawn is more of the anti-hero in the larger scheme of things (like military commanders like General Hannibal, Sun Tzu, etc) since the New Republic, even after defeating Palapline, still had tons of issues unifying every planet in the galaxy to their banner. The problem with the Rebellion/NR is that they lacked the stability & resources needed to address every need of the outer colonies (which were the ones who rebelled against the Republic originally before the Clone Wars).
Like in Halo, not every planet was happy with the core worlds despite promoting the same exact freedoms as before, thus making the New Republic not the broader good guys in the Star Wars story. A good portion of the Empire, like Thrawn, was NOT necessarily all evil, given they provided the necessary centralization (governors, laws, etc.) and stability the Republic lacked previously.
The New Republic tried to pick up the pieces by shattering the system many planets depended on for trade, commerce, relations, etc. It would be much harder for Luke & the gang to sort out the huge mess while facing the larger threat, hence why Thrawn still saw the pros of the Galactic Empire despite the hate for aliens (which I believe he could change internally). Eckhartsladder did a video years ago on What-If Thrawn had won and created a Galactic Federation in Legends
@@SolidAvenger1290 If I remember correctly, Thrawn's Empire of the Hand also made many necessary changes to how the Empire worked. Chief among them was promotion by merit and allowing non-humans to be promoted and represented.
I disagree that Thrawn is an anti-hero though. Anti-heroes don't have an interest in saving people but end up on the path anyways. Thrawn's goals are to save his people and the non-hostiles in the galaxy so I'd say he's more of a morally grey character.
The man is a fountain of incredible quotes and beautiful shots, both of which are shown so well here. Awesome tribute!
This is one of my favorite quotes of his: “You served too long under Lord Vader, Captain. I Have no qualms about accepting a useful idea merely because it wasn't my own. My position and ego are not at stake here.” - Thrawn.

Grand Admiral Thrawn
So he existed in real life?
@@jordanhamilton4888 Those like him did. This is Belisarius among others.
@@jordanhamilton4888 lol, there are quite a few, I wish I could see your smug face before and after a live example from ancient Rome, just give up man (I'm sure this is a pattern for you all across comment sections), pick up a book, a trade, and stop lashing out at people with your passive-agressive doucheness. Long live the Empire.
@@ericgaius8791 agree along with Marshal Davout and Lannes
“To defeat an enemy, you must know them. Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art.”
So artistically done
Thrawn would be proud
I understood that reference…
rukh gottem!
It was
1:24 "They'll be the architects of their own destruction" while showing senator Xiong was brilliant man and just 1 of many aspects to why this was beautifully edited. Amazing work!
Glad you enjoyed it my friend!
*Xiono
Lars Mikkelsen as Thrawn is simply perfection, you really captured the spirit of his character here! Great work as always.
It's like Thrawn stepped off the pages of the books to live action wih no change. Astounding.
@@mish375 And still people shit on his appereance, because he's not ripped af or something. He acted like Thrawn should, his performance was insane and easily the best about the entire Ahsoka series.
@@d4rksonic474 He acts exactly as Thrawn should act. Lars' performance was flawless. Some people just want to hate.
@@mish375 THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! And you can't even say he's acting out of character, because Filoni LITERALLY consulted Zahn in getting it right this time (not even saying I was mad at his Rebels performance, not at all).
I kinda get the thing with Thrawn looking a bit out of shape though, because he keeps doing sports to do stay in shape - but with the limited resources I'd understand why Thrawn couldn't keep up his schedule during exile. But he wasn't even ripped to begin with, a bit muscular, yes. But he himself claimed that muscle isn't that important, as long as you're both physically and mentally fit.
Working on his tummy would be better though, lol.
@@d4rksonic474 I'm biased as I love the Heir to the Empire trilogy. Read it in the late 90s. Lars plays the role exactly as defined in the book. Couldn't ask for better casting. His Thrawn is exactly how I imagined he'd be.
As for the weight: first, Thrawn has been in exile for 10 years. So the constant stresses of survival would definitely add weight. Second, Lars had to gain weight filming The Witcher then film for Ahsoka right after. Normally he's a thin guy. But despite that, his Thrawn looks solid like a brick. You wouldn't want to try to rush Thrawn because he'd still lay you down flat on your face.
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.” - Sun Tzu, The Art of War
"I study the art of war"- One of the GOATed lines🔥🔥
Thrawn is easily the most magnificent Star Wars villain
I have spoken
I still think Darth Vader's arc makes him the most magnificent. Thrawn still gets easily the second place.
@@nicolaridolfi6510 I didn’t mean best villain
I mean he was had the most charisma while still being generally likeable despite being a villain
@@vu-trathechildofhorrors5859 If you put it like that then I can only say that you're right
"To defeat an enemy you must know them. Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy, art"
Hardest quote in Star Wars
This was clearly made by someone who appreciates Thrawn in all his quiet and efficient glorious efforts.... for the Empire. He would appreciate this, for it would mean someone studied him, respected him, and came to know him... as he did with Hera, Ezra and the rest of the Rebels.
SWFT and Thrown. This combo can only produce something spectacular
A fantastic tribute to the star tactician of the Empire whose committed forces and brilliant strategies could bring his enemies to ruin in any era.
Long Live The Empire
Long live the empire
Edit: this has blown up
THRAWN THRAWN THRAWN THRAWN
Long Live The Empire
Long live the Empire!
LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!
Thrawn is my favourite Star Wars character. His beliefs are unique, and his strategies are incomparable. He is very clever and very posh too. I love the guy! I wonder where he first came from, and what history he has before the Empire.
There are 3 canon books by Timothy Zahn that show this
@@elizabethmcgowen3464 I've heard about them. I forgot the names of two of them, but the third is called 'The Last Command'.
@@maximomartin2529 They're titled Star Wars: Thrawn Ascendency. Book 1 is Chaos Rising and then there's Greater Good and Lesser Evil.
There's also a trilogy set during Thrawn's time in the empire. Thrawn, Thrawn: Alliances and Thrawn: Treason
@@elizabethmcgowen3464 Oh right! Thanks!
Honestly, Thrawn is a big part of why I ever had a liking for the Empire, and why I'm such a fan of Star Wars Space Battles.
He's someone with such influence that being under his command alone is just a different experience altogether for anyone serving in the Imperial Navy. I also feel like maybe, if I was an Inquisitor or some other Dark Acolyte then I'd be happily serving his command on the ground, furthering his success.
I think Dave Filoni is in the process of resurrecting the sequel trilogy. Finally something that can unite the fan base rather then divide it.
He and George breathed new life into the prequel trilogy and i think we’ll see that same effect for the sequels, in the coming years
Apart from Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine, Grand Admiral Thrawn is my favorite SW Villain mostly because of his superior strategic mind! This guy really knows how to plan ahead!
I'm currently half way through re-reading the OG Thrawn trilogy, and it's surprising how much more villainous Thrawn is during those books. Despite fan complaints, Rebels Thrawn feels much more in-line with Thrawn as he was written in 1991. Clearly the Empire had a negative effect on the him over the years. He was the perfect target for Palpatine to twist--a man willing to do anything for the greater good.
long live the empire
🔥 🔥
The true heir to the Empire!
Thrawn always has been and always will be my favorite character in all of star wars
"Thrawn! Thrawn! Thrawn!"
this was incredible long live the empire
“They’ll be the architects of their own destruction”
Well said
The best thrawn voice and the best man for this role !!!!!!!!! Long live the empire !!!!!!!!!!!!
Amongst all the force users both dark and light he proves that the most powerful thing is the mind.
did his character justice👏🏻
You know that this is a great editor, when you feel the threat of Thrawns return.
Amazing edit.... ❤
Breathtaking. You managed to capture Thrawn's character so flawlessly. He is such a fascinating villian. He requires no glory, no praise, only sees a goal, the safety of his galaxy, of the most importance. Would love to one day see you also capture Thrawn as depicted in the novels by Timothy Zahn. Your work is phenomenal. As Thrawn would say, how artistically done.
My beautiful blue boy!
long live Grand Admiral Thrawn, long live the Empire
I love this man to death
Best villain in the Star Wars universe hands down. Great character, voice, demeanor. Thrawn is one who considers all variables in any given situation. He is smart and calculated and also presents a sense of charm that fails to go unnoticed.
“What was first just a dream. Has become a frightening reality for those who may oppose us.”
(Thrawn, 2023)
Since I started reading some legends story’s I‘m just obsessed with this character.
Why not read the canon books?
@@elizabethmcgowen3464 Both are worth reading.
It's so perfect 😍😍😍
great edit dude - agreed that show is a masterpeice
Amazing video! I really loved Lars Mikkelsen's live action performance as Thrawn, but I was left with feeling like he wasn't as well written as in other mediums. I hope they amp up his brilliance for season 2
Amazing work brother
Perfection 🎉
If anyone could beat the new republic navy with a single, damaged star destroyer, it'd be Thrawn.
(given that he gets enough time to somewhat study them of course)
Reminds me of General Viggo from an old retro video game: Fur Fighters..🤯🙀 Except more.. Tense & complex while General Viggo is too predictable & harsh to his comrades (Shoots his own team or ally) but still a boss or force to be reckon with.. Can't wait to see more of this character as I saw him on Rebels series & is like a Chess player with the right moves.. FLAWLESS! 😎👍👏
Beautiful edit bro Thrawn is such a good character
you editors are keeping us fed!! this tribute is insane- great work 👏🏻
It was so artistically done.
What a masterpiece
Great job, I realise how philosophical Thrawn was and I am so happy to see this character in Ashoka
If the Canon Thrawn-novels wouldn't just be novels, I bet there could be a whole lot to tell out of them.
Long live the empire
Thrawn is a top tier star wars villain, Great Edit!
"and in this corner! THE man THE myth THE legend, quite literally brought back by popular demand!!!! Grand Admirrral Thrawn!"
Thanks you for this new masterpiece.
This totally ART
It's so beautiful 🔥! Masterpiece, really masterpiece 💯. Great edit ⚡ about great character.
What I love about Thrawn, is his voice perfectly matches his demeanor. There's a sense of calmness, understanding, precise and calculated goals. He's not quick to jump to conclusions. He takes his time to study his enemies. A very philosophical approach that he uses for his strategies.
His tactics, like his voice, are cold, calculated, and beautifully dangerous.
This guy is such an awesome character because of the way he approaches warfare. Seeing a lot of Thrawn episodes in Rebels was such a treat. Seeing him in live-action has been icing on the cake for Star Wars fans.
Say what you will about the live-action shows, as a fan, what a time to be alive to see characters such as this being just as awesome live-action as they were in the animated episodes.
I'm very curious as to where the story goes in Ahsoka Season 2 with Thrawn basically becoming unleashed.
Thrawn would be proud!!
i'm glad more people are watching rebels now with live action thrawn, also you are very thorough with your research i love it
Grand Admiral Thrawn has returned to Star Wars and it was worth the wait. Can’t wait to see where his story goes next now that he has returned to the known galaxy..
"We must wait, and watch" said no other Star Wars main character before or after him. No wonder he is so far beyond anyone else in the universe and everyone has to resort to using the Force just to keep up.
So good dude. This is art
damn the clips+music was actually great. goosebumps
I especially like the extreme close up of Thrawn's eye, and then cutting back to the bridge, where Thrawn is at the center of the iris. Incredible edit!
I love this Thrawn. I'm glad they brought back Ezra and Thrawn
Amazing video, amazing villain!
Thanks 😊 I love this
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this so good i loved it and you made my imperial heart cry tears of joy, bravo bravo.
You magnificent bastard you did it again and with my FAVORITE SW character! Thank you!
AMAZING
Great edit my friend!!!!
Love this so much bro! Thrawn is without a doubt one of my favorite antagonists and this video does him justice for sure.
Thank you mate!
"Long Live The Empire."
Your an Artist like nearly no other
This gave me goosebumps, it’s so good
Long live the Empire
This is one villain that I'm convinced that worths rooting for. Best star wars villain so far
Incredible work!
I LOVE this so much!!!!
My man Grand Admiral Thrawn!!!!! 🙏🏽💪
Incredible job of editing sir! Bravo!
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT, THAT'S WHY HE'S THE MVP!
THAT'S WHY HE'S THE GOAT!
*THE GOAT!*
Thank you!!
That was AMAZING!!!!!! IM IN AWE!!!
This video is awesome, well done. Thrawn would be proud
thx for this man, thats my favourtie character of all time!!!!
admiral yularen is far more better
O.M.G
Grand Admiral Thrawn has returned.
And you just made it 100 times better.
I hate it how people say Thrawn was rubbish and did nothing in the Ahsoka series. Show this to them and it'll change their mind. It's scary how the Empire was defeated and fragments of the Empire was spread throughout the galaxy. The New Republic ignored every warning and like Thrawn said: "They'll be the architects of their own destruction."
Then after over a decade.
Grand Admiral Thrawn returns from his exile from Peridia with 1 ISD that could singlehandedly devoure the New Republic Fleet with the help of The Great Mothers of Dathomir. Better than the so-called 'Final Order'. The Empire will slowly return in its numbers.
Well done my friend.
Always epic
If you love Thrawn, I recommend his auditable book narrated by Marc Thompson, it is really good and in my opinion the best voice and demeanor of the character.
For me as a German, who discovers Thrawn with the voice of Thomas Nero Wolff in the "Heir to the Empire" audiobook, Im very thankfull that Thomas Nero Wolff continuously is Thrawns German voice in all of Star Wars. His voice is always a pleasure.
i was got so excited when i saw this notification, thrawn is definitely one of my favourite characters in star wars and this edit was amazing, as always:)
A wonderful sequence, well put together!
Wow this is perfect. You somehow managed to link up both rebels and Ahsoka thrawn’s voices up to create new perfect combinations, it’s fantastic
Excellent job!
I gonna love this edit I already know that
Thrawn: I studied the art of war.
Sun Tzu: (visible pride)
Wow this another great edit! your probably one of the best Star Wars editors!
Magnificent!!!!! Can't wait to see more of your work!
Amazing tribute ! As always you did a perfect work. You have a gift for that, a talent. Glad to see every tribute you do ! =)
I really, really love the work you do ❤. Keep going!
I'm in awe at the wonderful editing.
Artistically done.
