Just watched the last 4 episodes. Great show and a good ending.

Just watched the finale, I kind of expected a Tech reveal like everybody else but I'm glad they left it alone.
Great ending to a great series, I hope they further expand upon Omega's story. |

Watched the first 2 empire tales. Decent. I think I will enjoy the 2nd set of stories better.

Hahahahaha Bariss and the other inquisitor made sure to use they/them/theirs when talking about a Jedi they tried to kill. Tales of the Empire is trash

Some alien races don't have a male or female, so the idea of using a male of female pronoun doesn't make sense. |

Tales of the Empire was pretty underwhelming. I get that showing the history between Thrawn and Ellsbeth might be important for future storytelling, but making the TIE Defender her idea is real retarded.
And the pronouns? Really? Yeah, God forbid they misgender their murder victim. That shit even stuck out to my very sheltered 11 year old who’s gone to Catholic school his whole life. “Why are they saying ‘they’?”. I don’t know, buddy. I really don’t know. |

Mark my words.
The Bad Batch is gonna get a live action. Sylvester Stallone is gonna be Hunter Jason Stetham is gonna be Crosshair I think either Dave Bautista or Jason Mamoa will br Wrecker. |

So I finished the finale.
The series was going to run for a few more seasons correct? I feel like the stories were there the last few episodes but some high up said between seasons 2&3 "Nope gotta finish it" So this is pretty much the end of the prequels correct? All those stories leading up to rebels with rex, wolf, and Gregor are gone. Guess we will never know. |

Tales of the Empire should be called Tales of the Retcon.
They made Morgan even less likable and gave her tech skills to help explain the engineering of the Star Destroyer docking ring. And the Barris storyline awful, just awful. If Reva injured the idea of inquisitors ever being cool, this just finishes it off. The big build up with Vader to watch him sit in a chair. Terrible. And that ending was such a let down. If you haven't watched it, don't waste your time. |

Barriss's story started out alright then went to shit pretty quick. It's a shame how poorly the inquisitors have been portrayed in this series and formerly in Kenobi. |

Tales of the Empire is trash View Quote Yup. Episode 5. Non binary pronoun trash. The inquisitor showed no mercy, slaughtered people left and right. But gotta make sure to use the right pronoun before slaying an obvious male human Jedi. |

If the logic of the setting went that way, I can't see how it wouldn't have been done in the setting decades ago. The fact that it's being done right now, when there's extreme pressure to do exactly that is a cluebat to our faces. Also, that didn't look like one of the races that wouldn't apply to. |

But they are clones still. While a bit different looking, they are still aren’t gonna get pulled off by different looking actors. Guess they could cgi somewhat. Sure, I’m in. Season 3 was good, albeit for a couple of the middle episodes that were filler. Loved the finale. Great way to end the series. |

Sounds like Disney will slow down on streaming content. Iger told shareholders they went too big too fast and volume over quality which resulted in a $4 Billion loss. (I'm sure some woke agenda also helped tank things). Anyway, sounds like we get Acolyte, Andor season 2, Ahsoka season 2 and Skeleton Crew. Beyond that it looks like they will reassess.

Rogue One - Good Movie.
The Force Awakens - Terrible movie. Han Solo - Okay Movie. The Last Jedi - Horrible movie. The Rise of Skywalker - Horible movie. Mandalorian Season 1 - Good. Mandalorian Season 2 - Very good. Clone Wars Season 7 - Very good. Book of Boba Fett - Terrible. Mandalorian Season 3 - Terrible. Tales of the Jedi Season 1 - Good. Tales of the Jedi Season 2 - Very good. Andor Season 1 - Excellent. Bad Batch Season 1 - Great. Bad Batch Season 2 - Great Bad Batch Season 3 - Great. Tales of the Sith - Terrible. Disney Star Wars is a mixed bag. They've had some great content and some terrible stuff. Everyone who says it's only terrible woke crap isn't really watching all the content, because some of it is excellent stuff. I loved Bad Batch, what a damn good show. Mandalorian was excellent until Season 3. Bad Batch actually had a U.S. Navy Veteran who was one of the Co-Producers and I think her finger prints come across on the show, she did a very good job. I really hope they give her more to do. |

Andor is the only Star Wars streaming series that looks professional, the cinematography stands out among the rest of what Disney Star Wars has put out and looks damn great. Not to mention Tony Gilroy's writing is superb, that man can tell a story. Frankly, he should probably be given the next movie to do. |

I could make millions for Disney.
Darth Vader movie. Plot: Darth Vader is hunting Jedi in the years after revenge of the Sith. Vader is struggling with his new role and the death of his wife. Other characters: some Jedi who get killed. Maybe a young or old imperial officer that had a family member who was a Jedi so they’re maybe not ok with Vaders mission. Like a field marshal Erwin Rommel like character who becomes disillusioned with the empire. In the end Vader still wins. Could even tie the imperial officer in to Andor and the birth of the rebellion. Boom, millions of dollars. Why is this shit so hard for Disney to figure out. |

Look at what Disney did to the Marvel MCU in the past few years. I’ll disagree with this too. Once again they gave us nothing but MCU shows with agendas trying to be pushed. As well as giving us for the most part shows with characters nobody asked for. As well as having to watch all the shows to follow the movies. People want shows with the A-list superhero’s, not the sidekicks. |
