That’s all - this is definitely not a “you’re all wrong, I’m right, nyah!” post.  I do respect your position. TLJ is not great or even that good (I mean the effects are good, it does look like a Star Wars movie) but the WBW helps me a little with one of my issues. If it’s a true connection, anyway… Snoke said it was him that allowed Rey and Ben to communicate, which is another mistake that needs correcting. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Miami_JBT: Honestly, other than Empire, all the movies (the sequel trilogy doesn't exist, fuck you!) were filled with issues. They were the gateway drug though and what made Star Wars, STAR WARS! Was the massive world building that happened with the EU. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Miami_JBT: Originally Posted By Sputnik556: Originally Posted By rbutcher: I liked the prequels more than a new hope and return of the Jedi. I like the prequels, but you're insane. I agree with you. Sequels do not exist and empire is the best Star Wars movie. I think rogue one, rebels, empire, and the last four episodes of clone wars are peak Star Wars visual media. |

The fact they played Vaders theme at the end of the episode makes me think it’s the Brother in disguise possibly.

Anakin killed the brother. More likely that he now has the job as the father (the balance of the force) that the father tried to get Anakin to take. That is the prophecy after all. Once he died, he's got nothing better to do...

Color me impressed. This was real SW and tied exactly into Clone Wars/Rebels without missing a beat. Even the little girl who played Snips did a great job with the part.
For gawd sake Disney get Kennedy out of any control of the SW universe. |

I was really impressed by the costuming too - Anakin felt like he was plucked right out of a Clone Wars episode, down to the stylistic differences in armor. Clone armor was on point too. And Hayden did a great job of pulling both his earlier portrayal of Anakin as well as Matt Lanter's portrayal together. CGI de-aging was on point. In fast, the whole episode had great CGI - beauty shots of the Ghost, the 2 ships flying through the clouds. Like I said earlier - top tier Star Wars,

There was a lot that was done better this episode, but there were still a couple head-scratchers. The fighting looked better this episode - mostly. You can tell the director really pushed the athleticism of the role hard onto both actors, but it all still looked a bit...winded. As for the de-aging, I thought it looked off at first, but during action sequences and later in the episode it looked pretty great.
Oh, and Click To View Spoiler I wouldn't have guessed that Ahsoka's socks were mass-manufactured, crew socks with a comfort cuff. |

Glad they got more use out of the costumes from andor.
Also, may not be the wbw, as there were no doors. But definately an auralnauts dance party. Biggest gripe is the purgills if you didn't watch rebels. Non watchers are probably asking "huh? wtf is going on?". |

I want more of the flashback stuff, loved it. It really showed what people in this thread have been trying to sell me of how Ashoka grew up in war and has the trauma of it.
The lightsaber fighting was MUCH better. The athleticism of young Ashoka and the speed and pure power of her opponent… awesome Biggest gripe, the white wrap over the top of the gray tunic. I wanted to see all white and a Easter egg of Ori flying around somewhere would have put me over the top |

here was my suggestion of how they should have dealt with the separation.
They should have focused the next 2 episodes on Baylen and Shin and the search for Thrawn. Throw in a few scenes of Ahsoka and crew trying to come up with ideas about how to get to there. Then the last episode of the season is where Thrawn returns in a season climax attacking the New Republic. That way you don't have to introduce/explain the whole hyperspace whales. Don't care if they are in the cartoons. Just leave that plot device out of the equation. |
