Finally finished "Manifest" and overall I'm really happy with how it ended!!! :D Very trippy series finale though and took some turns I didn't expect. Will post a few more spoilerly thoughts behind a cut but I really enjoyed watching this show and so glad Netflix saved it so it could have a proper ending.
I wasn't expecting the ending to be a like a dream they all experienced but it was actually real for those that survived, even though they came back to 2013 like nothing happened and the plane landed safely. So they have to keep it secret all these memories they had of those years. Also really cool to see they filmed some of this finale during the 1st season as they were able to use the original Cal and Olive child actors. They did hint at things happening still that happened in the other timeline, like Eden being born and Jared and Drea getting together and having their daughter Hope. I was sad to see about what happened to T.J. and Olive but at the same time it did seem to hint that eventually they could be together once she's an adult. It was always tricky with that as due to them jumping time they became the same age, but it seemed to me that years later they will be together but probably not for 10 years at least. Still weird about everything that happened with Ben and Saanvi as I thought they'd still be together, but Grace is still alive and she got back together with Alex. But is this another T.J. and Olive situation and they'll be able to be together later in life? And I'm still happy about Mick and Zeke as I preferred them together and now they can be and actually have more years. Like I said it was trippy and overall happy with the ending.
So, I just found out that Temuera Morrison has actually said in relation to Star Wars video games, “There will be some coming, I can let you know that.” This strongly indicates that Morrison is involved with multiple Star Wars game projects. Morrison is a pretty high-profile actor, so I don’t think any minor studios are going to be hiring him directly, however EA and Ubisoft are both developing Star Wars games, and both have the budget to hire Morrison. Ubisoft’s only developing a single game, however, and Morrison said “some”, meaning multiple, so there’s a decent chance one or more of EA’s upcoming games will feature Morrison in some capacity. If this is true, we could potentially be getting a Republic Commando remake or sequel from Respawn, or maybe Cal faces more advanced bounty hunters like Boba Fett, or something else connected to the unknown EA project...
My big question is this? Are we FINALLY getting Star Wars 1313??? I really doubt it, but I really hope so. Let me know what y’all think!
