Crosshair: Best stand down Sergeant, make it easy on yourselves Hunter: Have you lost your mind?! Crosshair: We should have killed that Jedi. You disobey orders. Hunter: I did what I thought was right! Crosshair: You could never see the bigger picture. Now surrender.. Hunter: (turns to his squad and Omega before looking back at Crosshair) Is that an order? Crosshair: (chuckles) I guess it is. Hunter: Well guess im gonna disobey that on too.
Poor Crosshair man...Betrayed the only ones he thought really was his family, got his face burned, all because of that chip. It ruined a lot of clone lives. Jesse, Fives, Tup, even Rex. Control comes at a price, and that is the story that the soldiers we all know and love tell.
“Crosshair, listen to me. Forget the Empire! This isn’t you - it’s your inhibitor chip! We can help you….” “Wrong. I had my chip removed… a long time ago.” “… Since when?” “Does it matter when?” “Yes!” “This is who I am.”
Sev: Are we the best shots in the Galaxy? Crosshair: Yes... but there is another. Elsewhere in the GFFA Tank 2 gunner: *sneezes* Tank 2 Commander: A pair of snipers must be talking to each other about the best shots again.
You should combine the clone theme and avatar theme Edit: thx for 93 like but we should blow this up and spam it on his other videos if you think he should
The story of clone really is sad. After Order 66, you are conscious but have no control over your body. You have to watch yourself do things they can't imagine doing. I hope the batch take Crosshair's chip out of his head and help him redeem himself, or sadly sacrifice himself for his brothers.
@@vibepatinus5879 we don’t know that. It’s possible but it isn’t true because if he knew about the chip he would feel like he was being manipulated by the empire.
I feel like this show could be so much better if they dumped the family friendly aspect of it. Go full on clone wars with this. This is supposed to take place in the darkest time in the Star Wars galaxy and I don't feel it enough. The first episodes had the right vibe. The Ryloth episodes were also pretty good. Kids can handle darker stuff.
@@kapnerad Happened only once... If anything Imperial occupations shown in the series are fucking mild and makes people who rebel against Empire look like goddamn idiots.
SAMMY! THAT NEW EPISODE WAS FUCKING FIRE! Brought me here for the end riff. Yanno, when the camera zooms on him and that *BWAAAAAA* plays. Anyway, outstanding as usual, keep the dream alive, my man!
It reminds me, to some degree, of the Prowler's theme. Specifically at 3:10; it got quiet and the mournful piano came on, and then it just roared in your ears.
I hear people keep saying this series has the potential of being the best Star Wars show out there, but what they don’t like are episodes focused on individual characters and their personal development that are somewhat for kids or the “filler” episodes. Excuse me? Just because some episodes are focused on the importance of family and relationships doesn’t make them for children. Also, the “filler” episodes play an important part to the overall ark of the story. They subtly develop the characters through small adventures or “irrelevant plots” to further grow your attachment towards them, and to make the final outcome even more compelling because you care about the characters.
The music of Bad Batch is amazing, like the rest of Kevin Kiners stuff, however... that sting you hear, when Crosshairs on screen and in this edit, you really get the feeling of anger, annoyance, hatred, possibly even him losing his mind, it's really something else and i absolutely love it. Kevin Kiner, you are a damn prodigy, and Samuel Kim is like his Musical Padawan lol
Hey Sam! Could we get your special spin on the song that plays when Crosshair Violates the Geneva Convention and torches civilians alive, just after killing one of his own men for having a conscience?
This is exactly what I was hoping for! After watching episode 12 and hearing this track I just thought, Samuel would make an epic version of this surely. Its brilliant!
You should do a crossover for Prince Xizor's theme from the companion soundtrack for the Shadows of the Empire books... and Tyber Zann's theme from Empire at War: Forces of Corruption. That shit would be criminal as hell.
When I hear this, I imagine the empire finally catching up with the batch. They send none other than the 501st... Vader's Fist.... With the newly anointed Lord Vader himself.
I hope that’s the final episode if they’re going to die. If they get wiped out, only Vader should be the one. I hope they can survive instead, but if they must die it needs to be Anakin 😢
Vader's got far bigger priorities than a bunch of rogue clones. Especially so soon after Order 66. At the most the empire might send Death Troopers or Commando Units similar to what Crosshair's role was in season 1
Imperial Crosshair might just be my favorite clone of all time. Armor is sick, love the mesh of commando, death trooper, and bad batch in his look. Plus I’m a sucker for snipers and ricochets.
This... Is who I am. You weren't loyal to *me* I was one of you once, you may have forgotten, but I haven't, which is why i'm going to offer you something you never offered me. A choice.
Those dark deep reaper tones are great and can really add to a song. I hope for more of that in future music, and maybe in some more fantasy oriented stuff. Thanks for the great stuff so far! :)
Crosshair never misses his target.
Just like Samuel Kim never misses a tone.
Yet we have seen him miss many...
Crosshairs, not Kim...
Well, he missed Orn Free Taa's shuttle in episode 12, when the Bad Batch was in.
Crosshair has a tendency of missing plot armoured targets.
