Star Wars: Rebels
And here's our replacement for Clone Wars. Coming to Disney XD in fall 2014. Bridges the gap between Eps 3 and 4. Looks...very cool. Conceptually.

That's EXACTLY what I thought while watching.
Is it weird I was kinda bummed that they might have killed him off so quickly before he was repaired? I think I like his and Chopper's banter better than R2 & C3P0.

Rebels is very much following The Clone Wars.. starts off slow, but each season gets better and ramps up to the juicer plotlines.

Supposedly, the finale "changes everything".
We'll see... |

Maul is Snoke.
Hates the Sith, fears the Skywalkers. When I saw "call me old master", I knew right then and there the tie-in was complete, and the deal done. |

Yep, sounds like a Snoke in the making to me.

I posted a tweet from Pablo Hidalgo from LucasFilm in the Episode VIII thread in which he stated that neither Snoke nor Kylo Ren had ever been a Sith, which also rules out Plagueis.

Anakin's whole body was on fire, lost half an arm and both his legs below the knees and can't breathe or see without the help of robotics, yet he lived for 40+ years after the duel with Obi Wan. I have a hard time believing that Snoke is a brand new character that leads the First Order, knew Vader and Palpatine, was around during the Clone Wars and seemingly has Force abilities. |

If you look at Maul's clone wars activities, it becomes apparent that he has a fairly masterful mind for manipulation and organization as well as being an above average warrior. We now know that he did survive Sidious, and got away from him. And if you listen to Maul's "new" voice and compare it to Snoke's, things get really interesting. I submit that Maul was again badly damaged to the point of reconstructive surgery and the permanent loss of his horns, somewhere between Rebels and TFA, and has assumed the identity of 'Snoke'. Or, Maul will be killed by Vader at the end of this season. |

He's the guy that does the Star Wars Visual Dictionary books and has no reason to lie. I love the character of Maul and I'm happy that Filoni and Kinberg brought him back to life in The Clone Wars and Rebels but there's no way he's Snoke. He's the wrong species, has "real" legs, as opposed to mechanical legs, doesn't have horns, isn't from Dathomir, etc. |
