If you guys are listening to us on Apple and Spotify, we would just watch Bad Batch Episode 1, 2, and 3 of season 3. All right.

We don't have to talk for too long because we've got 45 of these for this season. Well, hey, look, I just want to set the stage here for everyone. I'm going to rank these three episodes. two is number one for me number two is number three yeah and uh number one is one no no guys uh i really like the omega episodes a lot because we had we had this it was sandwiched bookended i would say sounds smarter than saying sandwiched it's like you got two great slices of bread and in between i was going to say i like sandwiches more than i like books gregg it's it's like the first time you had fake meat when they were trying it out.

Yeah, but it wasn't quite there yet. Like, great bread. That's what episode one and three was. Like, delicious tasting bread to make up for this fake meat. That's what the second episode was. It was all right. But it's not quite exactly what I showed up. How did the real rejects become so popular on the internet?

And this right here, Greg, is this is how you do? It's masterful analogies to decide. Scribe experience was vegetarian meat was the second episode. Oh, man. But even, it wasn't even that bad. It was, it was just a traditional bad batch episode. And I just, I don't, we don't need them. But this, I think the story needs them.

We need to get people from point A to point B and, you know, so I, I respect that. Well, I think what happens with Bad B is they can either have these ones that are going for more fun that ultimately feel unsubstantial. Yeah. And then they go for ones that are like slow and dread heavy, but you're really not emotionally invested. So they just play out kind of slow without the menace, really. And then you got great episodes, like what they did with the one and three here, which had the deliberate pace, the dread, the menace, a good build, the intensity, beautiful animation and you're emotionally invested in what's happening between your main characters like i find

um omega way more compelling than before this dynamic of cross hair and her is very interesting and also cross hair her clearly having to overcome some trauma what the f and nala say i was really endeared to her through it i'm concerned and she's obviously going to die and it's sad and then what is the woman's name scientist lady emmer emmer if i just think it's i think it's i think it's I just play a tad longer. I can maybe pause it on a credit thing. So that way we can sound smart when we're picking up the names

middle of conversation. You know what I mean? It would be a great way to save our asses in the middle of this. Let's already set all their names, but I don't think they said all their names yet. I'm just buying myself time until it all pops up because I want to do.

Okay, here we go. Emery. So, yeah, with Emery. It's interesting that she has a last name. Yeah, it's car. Oh, okay. That's why I'm saying. I don't think she's a clone.

I think she's just the original source. That's a good call. And then Hemlock is compelling villain as well. And I love how they got themselves out of that predicament they were in escaping where Omega and them had to improvise along the way. But it wasn't, no one rescued Omega, you know. I'm sorry. We need to talk for a second.

About what? D. Bradley Baker, in addition to being every member of the Bad Batch and all the clones, is also Badger. Oh, really? That's right there. Why not? You want an extra check? Here.

Let's play the dog. I just, I think D. Bradley Baker is the bees knees, personally. That's hilarious. They give more variety to all the stormtroopers. Yeah. No, I mean, it's amazing. I can't imagine juggling that many characters. I can't.

I can't. See, I'm talking about immediate story stuff right now because Michael, you're here to throw down Star Wars shenanigans. How do you feel now that Omega is confirmed to be, she's force sensitive, she's got to be, she's got an M count. You have M count, you're capable, but the living force flows through all things, Greg. I love how they just, they make the force confusing for people now. Because it's like, is it M count, is it not M count? I think M count, everyone has the ability to be force sensitive. I think M count is the extent to which the force,

operates within you i think what's what's interesting is that if if omega is a clone of emery i mean emery should have one would expect emery to be for sensitive you know it's been a big question of who do palpatine do it with maybe it was emery and maybe whoa no that's no i like jokes aside because he and mcdermit literally this week just didn't i would never put jokes aside in the name of commentary. But it would make sense to me that Palpatine, if there was like an actual bylaw,

I really don't know if I believe that Emery is in any way actually related to Omega. I'm not sure if I actually believe that. Or if that's just something that they said. I don't know. I could believe. Yeah, that does beg the question.

Wait, can you remind me? Boba Fett, does he have a high M-Camp? no okay he doesn't right he has no m count has no m count so or else this would have been a very different but omega is a clone from um boba not boba jango jango sorry jango yeah well that's that's what they've said who i i there's something there's something bigger at play going on here i mean she's got to be a clone of somebody maybe or maybe she's a real she doesn't age she does she does Her hair grew. But does she age?

She's gonna age, Greg. She has longer hair. She's taller. Why is she the child, though, right? What is the lineage? Oh my God, what is it? It's like, how come Boba Fett was a child and the rest are like adults? Because the others are set so that they age faster.

That's what it is. It's 10 times. Gosh, I keep forgetting the rules. Yeah. I'm hopping between so many different lores this week. No, it's in preparation for, for perspective, Boba, who probably looks like a teenager at this point still is the same yeah around this time he's probably like 18 or 19 yeah I mean how long after a clone about uh yeah we must be getting to like 10 plus years oh really after maybe a little bit

less because I think a bad batch immediately after order 66 so that puts us yeah he's probably in his late teens if I had to guess but he's the same age as Rex and all of these other clones. Yes. Okay. That helps my brain. That does all my brain. Thank you. No, of course. I mean, I just, there's something more interesting going on with Omega and this Emery plot that I'm excited to see what they do with it. Well, that's why I like the Emery characterization of her because there's an interesting duality with the going on inside of her. She wants to, she's doing her service, but clearly you get

moments where you can see she's getting emotional because she's soft like a woman she's got the motherly instincts holding her back no I think she was treated like a prisoner I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure that look I know this whole other side of Star Wars internet and I I know

what I'm supposed to say now I gotta play to both camps here Michael even if I don't mean any I got to play it both I disagree all right fair enough Fair enough.

It's probably because of the prisoner thing, oh, psychologically speaking. Anywho. Not gender conformity. Are you done yet? I'm over here. I just want to talk about, yeah,

if Omega has Middiclorians, she does, which she does, as now confirmed, then Emory should have midaclorians too. Unless

Emery is not actually Omega isn't actually a clone. Or maybe Omega was created in a different way altogether. Or maybe in the way

she was created is naturally because isn't the, wait, no, it's sort of coming back to me. I thought with M count we all have an M count

which is other people have like a higher M count. Well, the other thing that they were looking at is did the M. count degrade in the cloning process so in that regard see this is what i'm confused by nalisei clearly knew from the get-go that she had a high m count because when nalisei made

omega it was from a clone of a jedi yeah that makes more sense i don't know who that Jedi is. Obi-Wan Kenobi. Honestly, Obi-Wan Kenobi was on Camino. He visited Camino. At that early, he interacted with Nala Se. Maybe when he used one of their bathrooms

that don't have a debate. They just... It's pronounced Padet. Dubai. Takes one of those. I'm buying you. Took a urine sample and cloned Obi-Wan-Kanovy from it. Well, it's kind of interesting.

Well, because it solves that age-old. issue of what why doesn't oboe one nobody have a kid running around yeah because clearly it's what we all want although i'll tell you hot take hot take uh if you were to take setine and obi won canobi and give them an accent you would have omega that is true i don't know if that's a hot take well i don't think anybody's out there being like that's obiwan's daughter except for us. I'm going to scour Star Wars Internet theory is a little more, but I could see that being the case.

It's cool to see Project Necromancer. It is cool to see Project Necromancer. I'm mad that they didn't show us anybody in the tanks. Oh, we got to resort that for a Mandalorian movie. We already saw them in the tanks, and it sucked. Or Sok a show. It's the, officially it's the Mandalorian and Grogu. Yeah.

That's the name of the movie. But then they're going to get Osoka Season 2. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Asoka lost in space. Well, Greg, I had a really great time. I love the pacing. I love the music. I've got a feeling this season's going to get really, really dark. And, well, it's got to get dark so we can, you got to have the catharsis by the end of, I mean, I keep wondering if it's going to really end.

I think they usually end their shows with some ray of hope, even if, ha, ha, I did two things there. I did two Star Wars things. Ray as in Ray Skywalker and Hope No you did three things Greg What? Of as in return of the Jedi Oh shit

Oh shit didn't even think I didn't even put that together How really and I am Talented you are Thanks man That's why you should be my talent manager Honestly you're so talented Yeah

You probably were the one that wrote Episode 8 and 9 Oh yeah Yeah I definitely pitched 9 And my pitch, I dropped it into chat, GBT, and I said, hey, I know you're in her beta stage is chat TVT, but I need you to course correct everything. Make it happen. All right. We got an outline.

And we just put in some words and we got a script. There we go. Yeah. I like this a lot. I thought the first and third one were really good. And, you know, like, honestly, I go into every bad batch reaction with a bit of a begrudging attitude. Sure. And then I have to remind myself to be open-minded.

I do that more often than you guys realize with almost everything. And with this, I was like, all right, I know what's good. I struggle with this show because I don't know if it is a kid show or an adult show. And I don't think it knows either. And maybe that's a good thing. But I think sometimes we get episodes where I'm like, this feels very made for some darker heavy stuff. And then other times, you know, you have a treasure home. All right, Reject Nation. So today I want to share something with you that has been a wonderful addition to my health and fitness journey that I discovered during the holidays. And that is liquid IVs hydration multiplier. I'm down to my very last packet and I'm freaking out. But it's okay. I got more in the mail. Now, a lot of you have been so kind to notice how I've been working on my physical health. Thank you for all the compliments. And one thing I learned is that proper hydration is absolutely crucial, especially post-workout and pre-filming after post-workout. And my wife actually introduced her to do this product, which is perfect because we not only

care about quality, but a good taste and quality product. Whether it's after a sweaty workout or just after, you know, a good night out, you know what I'm saying? Efficient hydration and replenishing electrolytes is key. You just feel better, and it tastes fantastic. I can't emphasize that enough. And another thing that I'm always on the lookout for, too, is products that have zero sugar or zero sugar added. Because that's one of my main dietary restrictions throughout the week. And they, of course, got products that fit that description that also tastes good, too.

So, yes, thank you so much. So liquid IVs hydration multiplier is, in summary is they are non-GMO electrolyte drink. that delivers hydration into your bloodstream faster and more efficient than water alone. Sometimes drinking a whole gallon is not always efficient. But in fact, it can provide the same hydration as drinking two to three bottles of water. I'm also big on efficiency. Plus, it's packed with a little of essential vitamins, and we know vitamins are good for the body. It's vegan, soy-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free.

You can customize their water amount to your taste. Again, perfect for post-night recovery, traveling or just having a big night out. You know what I mean? So if you want to boost your support for the channel and boost your hydration game, Go to liquid iv.com and use promo code rejects at checkout. That's liquid iv.com promo code rejects. And remember, liquid IV. It's not a real IV.

But it sure feels like it. So stay hydrated, stay healthy, and let's keep crushing those health and fitness goals together in the year 2024. Hello there, esteem viewer of the real rejects.

Or as they say in Spanish, communication. we're done with this ad um i think it's like a teen show okay i'm not like a i think it's like a third like the way how some people watch like certain you know uh certain animas out there like there's certain animas i'm like this isn't a little kid show but it's definitely like this is

like a teenager i mean i feel like if i was 12 i'd be like yeah exactly for all you 12 year olds do you guys like the show? I don't feel like this is a, let's direct any questions directly to 12 years. But I think, you know, anyone for the age of like 4 to 10 is probably not going to be that into it. But I think for kids 4 to 10. What do you think of this? Yeah, honestly, am I putting you kids down? We'll talk to the 4 to 10s, but not the 12s. Yeah. I mean, it's, I think that's like one of the biggest challenges of being a Star Wars fan is like, I want to make sure that the next generation gets to love it and enjoy it as much. as we do but sometimes i feel like in the process of like the selfishness of like the world is so

dark and all i have is star wars you really just want them to give you exactly what it is that you're asking for well i think the thing about star wars it's part of the DNA to be dark and then also have like super kid friendly shit show up it's part of star wars i mean the move the original movies were like that yeah no i mean it's true it's a you watch a new hope and it's pretty It's a silly movie It's a silly fun movie And Empire Strikes Back is way more serious But it's got some silly moments

Yeah That's part of the fun of it And like episode two Yoda's like And he's jumping around And that's serious business Yeah He's Eddie Gordo from Tekken

He's butt and mash That's what Yoda is in that movie It's just a butt and mash Oh god But everything about this I have hope For how the season goes I don't know

It's gonna end on a dark note Or not but so far Lovin Omega Moore I'm curious If it's a setup for one more show of this animation style and frankly i think that's what i'm sad at the prospect that we are probably soon getting to the end of this animation style uh and it's own original star war shows we got to move on no we got to move on you want it to look like rebels

i i think i think uh with with this being the disney wheelhouse and while lucas film department is different. We have shows like what if season two, which were amazing animation. I don't know if you saw it. Yeah, sure did. I thought it looked great. Yeah. And then they're doing like X-Men 97, which looks really good. Yeah, it looks so good. Very different animation style than what if season two. Yeah. And I think that under the Disney umbrella, which it will stay forever there permanently, I feel. Unless Apple buys them. Unless Apple buys them. I think, yeah, mixing it up would a different animation flourish could be cool

like I like I like the love what am I talking about the best reference point is Tales of the Jedi I was just like that I was gonna say Tales of the Jedi is literally

visions yeah but like even though no one watches that shit it was great it was so good yeah well I think visions is beautifully animated

but I don't know maybe maybe that remember that first episode of Vision season two yeah that was like we were imagine if we got a show

to look like that I see no reason why that can't happen except for cost. Well, instead of doing 16 episodes, do like eight solid ones. No. No. We will lose subscribers.

No, none of that, Greg. We will lose our Disney Plus subscribers. They hang on by a threat here. Greg, how am I supposed to warrant the cost of my Disney Plus account? They put a Disney so much into the easiest people I've ever had to, like, coordinate anything with? I make fun of Disney I'm a former cast member once upon a time I love Disney

and listen for the frustrations that I have had they have given us so much Star Wars content and I will continue to pray at the altar of Bob Iger They have not oversaturated Star Wars at all

and when they got Star Wars we said we want more shows less movies and they have delivered that is exactly what we all Less movies, more shows. Listen, I got to see Assoca in live action and Hondo. Not yet. We haven't seen Hondo live action.

Greg, I think we're off track. I think we're ready. I think this is done. Are you, do you want to do the, do you want to watch a new hope right now? No, no. I think I'm going to work on this video. Okay. Hey, uh, Reject Nation.

What did you think? Are you excited for the next episode? Where do you think it's going? Are they going to survive till the end of the season? I'm curious what your opinions are. Don't forget to use the force to leave a like. And if you haven't subscribed or hit that cute little ding-dong bell, is that what it is? Yeah, it's called the ding-dong bell.

Ding-dong bell. Can you tell I haven't been on YouTube in a while? A little ding-dong bell. Ding-dong. Yeah, that's say you get those great notifications. And I love the notifications. There's always exclamation marks and capital letters. This is the most exciting video we've done.

No, it's literally... Every video we've titled, it's so exciting. And then, you know, you look at the little picture and everyone's mouths are agape. There's a motion to it. Yeah. Smiling or crying or crying or crying. Half the time I'm like, people... Like, I must have had gas or something when you got that picture of me.

They say eyes are the window to the soul. It's the mouth. It's the mouth is the window to the soul right there. It says more about you than it says about us that you click those videos. There's motion in the mouth. Anyway, don't forget. And it's usually like S1, E2, X something. Yeah, it's great.

Anyway, that's what people are typing. That's your average viewers typing in. Go to YouTube and type in the Bad Bats S3E1, please. I feel like you say that. But I like, I do that. That's what you type in? When Disney X-D was the only place that you could watch Star Wars Rebels, I used to be like, I have to figure out where to find it.

You have to like type in the... I feel like most people just type in bad batch reaction and they're going to assume like, oh, it's probably like what I'm looking for. And it's us and no one else. No, blind wave shows over. Fly wave. Everyone watches there. You get like 10 times more.

We got Marvel. They got Star Wars. that's the trade-off I gave with them. Is that directly? That's a handshake deal. We tend to do better in Marvel. They tend to do exceptionally better at Star Wars. We tend to do better by a margin in Marvel.

They do exceptionally better at Star Wars. Well, much love to our friends at Blindwave, but I'm coming for you. No, I'm kidding. It's not going to do it. It's not a competition. And if it was, we would lose. We would lose right away. All right.

Well, bye, everyone. Guito Galindo Guido Guido I saw your comment Saw you appreciated Our last shout out And I just want to say
