We discuss the season four and series finale for Star Wars Rebels as Ezra leads the Rebels in a final assault against Thrawn and the Empire on Lothal.
For the past few years, part of regular rotation of weekly episodes has been our discussion centered on our re-watch of Rebels. It is bittersweet, but with this episode, we will have completed the re-watch. We’ll dive into the final battle between Ezra and Thrawn as Ezra attempts to free Lothal from Imperial control for good. Along the way, Ezra has an unexpected encounter with Emperor Palpatine himself. This one is powerful. Thank you for joining us for our discussion of Star Wars Rebels on Podcast Stardust.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Our overall reactions to the series finale,
- Ezra’s growth over the course of four seasons of Rebels,
- The plan to defeat Thrawn and the Empire on Lothal,
- How Thrawn turns the table on Ezra and cements his place as a Star Wars villain,
- Ezra’s confrontation with the Emperor, and Ezra’s choice, and
- The conclusion of this episode, the series, and how it sets up Ahsoka.
