Day 194 of waiting for the Maul: Shadow Lord trailer

I desperately need Disney to release the Maul: Shadow Lord trailer but I also need the general Star Wars fandom to keeping talking about The Hunt for Ben Solo

HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY, MAULKILLER! 🥳❤️

Bob Iger: I don't see how Ben Solo could be alive Dave Filoni: I mean... Darth Maul though Bob: Can't hear you, I'm driving through a tunnel! Dave: .....we're literally standing in your office Bob, crawling under his desk: GOING THROUGH A TUNNEL

Maul in Ben Solo's DMs like

Take me back to January 2012 where Star Wars bent itself over backwards to explain the resurrection of Darth Maul. People forget that he wasn't suddenly brought back out of nowhere; there were novels and short stories released prior to The Clone Wars specifically to prime audiences for his return.

Reylos: Marie-Claire how do we convince Disney to greenlight this movie Marie-Claire:

Iger: But Ben Solo died me, a Darth Maul fan: That has literally not mattered even once

Thinking about that one time in the Darth Plagueis novel when teenaged Maul said, "Yeah I could probably beat the entire Jedi Council in a fight" and Sidious' response was, "Go stand in the corner."

WHO OUTBID ME???

Ray Park's on-screen lightsaber prop is up for auction and in unrelated news, I would very much appreciate it if someone would give me $40,000

Disney is trying to recreate the Meet Joe Black/The Phantom Menace phenomenon by making me buy extra tickets to F4 just to see the Avatar trailer again

Part of being out of the fandom game for the last fives years means that I've literally never heard of Tom Bateman until today, but the first thing I did was google his height 😂

If I had a NICKEL for every sad boy with heavy face tattoos and glowing yellow eyes-

Maul really said, "I've only had Eogan for five minutes but if anything ever happened to him, I'd kill everyone in this room"

I'm re-reading Maul: Lockdown (not my favorite Maul story but I really wanted a refresher on his relationship with Eogan Truax) and this line hit me like a punch to the gut Context: He's getting the crap beat out of him and it suddenly occurs to him that he's going to die in the next five seconds

I wonder if we could get a scene like this in Maul: Shadow Lord, between Maul and his apprentice. Admittedly, "So, how'd that happen anyway?" is a bit of an indelicate question, but I'd still like to hear Maul answer it. I'm curious how he would tell his own story.

My good friend @mariecgould.bsky.social got me thinking about Maul and the underworld, and how he keeps returning there again and again. And Star Wars being Star Wars, this is actually way more literal than you might think. It's happened at least five times in canon, so if you'll indulge me: [1/?]

This was so fun! Please give it a listen! I loved having the chance to rant about Darth Maul again, and I am so excited for what "Maul: Shadow Lord" may bring! 🥰❤️🖤❤️

I'd like my first post on this website to be a public announcement that I have absolutely no intention of being Normal about this
