General Star Wars question: More an observation, though there is a question: It occurred to me the other day that the two characters that are tied for your favorite Star Wars character, 3PO and Mando, one’s a droid that has the fixed expression; the other rarely takes off his helmet and thus you don’t see his face all that much. Despite that, the talent of both Anthony Daniels and Pedro Pascal is such they convey so much emotion and bring so much heart and soul to the characters that make you love them as much as you do, all without the use of facial expression. So my question is do you have any specific thoughts or comments as to the two men’s’ ability to do all that without relying on consistent facial expression? Star Wars The Clone Wars: Question 1: Parts of the fandom have a thought regarding why Jar Jar Binks of all people is frequently sent on missions. The thought is that Darth Sidious pulls a few strings so that Jar Jar will be sent on missions that regardless of outcome it’s a win-win for Sidious. Therefore if things go bad for the Republic they can use Jar Jar as a scapegoat and say, “If anyone asks: Jar Jar Binks did it” and if things go bad for the separatists they can claim, “We would have gotten away with it too if it hadn’t been for that meddling Jar Jar Binks!” Do you feel that there’s something to this idea or do you feel that it’s more than likely the case that the fans like me are reading way too much into it? Question 2: Something the show’s done remarkably well is shining a spotlight on, for want of a better term, the supporting Jedi such as Plo Koon and Kit Fisto and showcasing their characters and personalities. This is an immensely popular aspect of the show; the fandom greatly appreciated it, and going by your reactions, I would imagine you feel the same way or at least hold a similar opinion? Loki: Question 1: Though Loki’s portrayed more as more of an anti-heroic figure in this show I do like how much like Infinity War, (Because let’s be honest: Thanos was the main character of Infinity War) Loki is a show where the villain is the main character. Has this been a particular aspect of the show that you’ve been enjoying as well and would the idea of films or shows in the MCU that predominantly focus on the villains be something you’d like to see more of in the future? Question 2: So in the first episode it’s mentioned that during Endgame this variant of Loki was not supposed to take the Tesseract and flee. But if he hadn’t, the journey to the training faclility to retrieve the Tesseract and by extension Tony gaining closure regarding his father and Steve gaining the idea to go back and be with Peggy, thus causing a majority of the plot of Captain America and the Winter Soldier would not have happened. Leads to my thoughts and my questions to you: do you think that perhaps Loki was meant to do what he did? Do you feel that perhaps it’s a sign that the TVA is not quite as omniscient as they appear to be? And say Loki hadn’t grabbed the Tesseract and vamoosed, how do you think that would have altered the timeline? Captain America and the Winter Soldier: So a thought occurred while I was at work a little while ago and I wondered what your thoughts would be. Regarding Zemo’s ambition to eliminate those who have taken the serum, what do you feel would have happened had he learned of Isaiah? Do you feel Zemo would ensure that Isaiah would be killed or do you feel that he would actually leave Isaiah alone once he learned of the trauma and suffering that was subjected to him? General music question: Judging by your comments in last month’s chat, I would venture a guess and say that Hans Zimmer is either your favorite film composer or at least in the top five, presumably?

Loki question: How do you feel about Sophia Di Martino as Sylvie? How do you find her chemistry with Hiddleston? I seem to be in a bit of a minority as whilst I want to like her I'm not really blown away. It might just be that all the comparisons with Doctor Who put me in mind of Capaldi as 12 and Michelle Gomez as Missy which is unfair because that's a high bar!

Sorry if this is too late! Loki: 1) How do you like the friendship between Mobius and Loki? I think Owen Wilson is perfect in being so unflappable and mellow that none of Loki's tricks are working on Mobius, not to mention that he almost knows Loki better than he does. Since this is new for Loki to experience with someone, what do you think this friendship means to Loki? 2) Loki's whole character stems from him feeling like a broken child in the first Thor, and so much of his development was from coming to terms with the universe being against him. What do you think his experiences in the TVA work to help or hurt that feeling? On the one hand he’s being told explicitly that his story's worth was only ever to support "greater" heroes fulfil their potential. Yet, on the other, maybe meeting/knowing about more Loki’s could give him a greater understanding of what else he's capable of. How do you think all this knowledge is affecting him? 3) Episode 3 did an excellent job in highlighting that, while these two Lokis are the same being, they are totally different individuals with different life experiences. Do you think the ‘Sacred Timeline’ is really how things are “supposed” to be, or are the branching timelines/multiverse actually a much more natural way of existing? By the TVA pruning off the branches, they circumvent freewill. In my opinion, variants shouldn’t be considered a bug, but a feature. Thoughts? 4) Just for fun. Hypothetically, if you met a genderbent alteration of yourself who just ran away through a portal, would you follow yourself or stay with Mobius? Supernatural: 1) How do you feel about Sam deciding to develop his powers with Ruby. Do you think he still would’ve gone down this path if Dean didn’t die? And how do you think he’s struggling with readjusting to his life now that Dean is thrown back into it (which he wasn’t accounting for)? 2) In general, how are you feeling about the show’s introduction of Angels into the mix, and the omniscient chaos they brought with them? How do you like the show’s darker interpretation of them, given they’re within the context of the Supernatural world? Fear the Walking Dead: 1) It’s been sad to see Sherry’s trauma with Negan coming through this season, since she didn’t have an adequate support system to move on healthily -- but seeing her get some peace of mind before the bombs struck was relieving. What did you make of Sherry’s arc over season 6, and how being reunited with Dwight was able to help her? 2) What were your final feelings on Dakota? I think her story was quite tragic, since she was always so manipulated, and seemingly lacked any moral compass in her life. Do you think she could have ever been able to become a different person, or was she too scarred for life? Would you have liked to see her survive onwards, or do you think her death was ultimately for the best? 3) Where do you see Strand going from here? I think, morally, he’s completely lost without Alicia. And, seeing as they’re practically separated now, I think he could easily take an antagonistic turn. Would you like to see this side of him and, if so, how far do you think it should go? I wonder if he could be turned back onto the right path if he starts to wander down the wrong one. 4) So, like all cult leaders, it seemed Teddy was a fraud all along since he planned his own survival right from day one. Do you think he ever honestly believed in his mantra of “The End is the Beginning”? Or perhaps he was just a psycho who loves killing, trying to kill as many as he can. I’m glad he’s dead, but he was definitely a formidable and creepy villain. How did you feel about his character this season? 5) I really loved the way the finale focused not so much on the warheads exploding, but the way that that threat impacted all of our main characters. I think a lot of people were given a new perspective on life when faced with potential death, which should lead to everyone being in an interest headspace for season 7. I know you don’t like to predict too much but what are your hopes for how the next season can build on these characters as they are now? Are you hoping for a similar anthology structure like this season? And I’m also curious if you think it should be the last of FTWD?
