This Bad Batch jack-o-lantern is giving us the feels
The final scene of The Bad Batch saw an adult Omega leaving her island home of Pabu to join the Rebel Alliance as a pilot. Hunter, clearly older from the passage of time, sees her off on her next adventures, telling her the words, "You're our kid, Omega. You always will be." This scene was poignant and powerful to close the series.
One fan loved it so much that they made a jack-o-lantern for Halloween. Ct_girlie on Twitter showed off their prized carved gourd, revealing Hunter and Omega sitting under the moon of Pabu.
This fan made creation caught the eye of the creators of The Bad Batch. Composers Sean and Deana Kiner shared on their Twitter account one simple word with a string of crying face emojis, saying, "Unbelievable!"
This scene in particular has a lot of significance to Sean Kiner, who revealed recently how he composed Omega's Theme. With his newborn baby daughter in his lap, he composed the music for the young animated girl. He said at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, "My daughter was a newborn, and I was literally writing with her in my lap, this little bundle of joy. And the world was so dark, and everything was so bad. Just to have her, to feel like pure potential, pure hope, knowing that I was going to do my best to try and make sure that this little bubble of happiness, that her life would be happy. That she would know that she was loved. I turned all that into [Omega's Theme]. I literally wrote it with her on my lap. I was at my keyboard, so I can't help but to associate that with her."
Showrunner for the series, Jennifer Corbett, shared her own one word excitement at the spooky decoration showing off the finale scene. Along with a heart, she exclaimed on her Twitter account, "Amazing!"
It's the spooky time of year, which always brings out fans showcasing their best talents. Last week, we shared an awesome Grand Inquisitor pumpkin! Keep up the amazing work, Star Wars fans!
