Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By macaho45: I've been watching Rebels for the first time. I just finished the season 2 finales with the Vader/Ashoka/Maul/Ezra/Inquisitor/Kanan face off at the Sith temple. That was some of the best Star Wars content I've ever seen.  Rebels definitely starts off as “space Aladdin”, but it gets really good, with some of the episodes being downright phenomenal. Just wait till you get to the last season. It’s fantastic. |

Just wait till you get to the last season. It’s fantastic. I'm looking forward to it. It'll be the last Star Wars show for me to finish/be current with. The show seems a bit more focused than Clone Wars, after that first season, which I enjoy. |

Mando S2 had 8 episodes. Mando S3 has 8 but I've read only the first 2 were in that graph. It's total minutes watched so shows with more episodes should score higher. Converting it to minutes watched per episode: minutes watched/episode Mando S1 0.688 Mando S2 1.025 BoBF 0.600 Kenobi 0.683 Andor 0.342 Mando S3 0.375 So better than Andor and about half of what S1 did. Should keep in mind there are probably many waiting to binge the the whole season. Also S1 and S2 includes all the rewatch minutes. Edit: formatting |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By codefied: Ezra takes Luke to the world between the worlds where they see that 1. The Sith have cloned Palpatine. 2. Ben Solo will become powerful enough to be capable of taking him down and destroying him. 3. Ahsoka has formed a team with the Mandalorians to kill Ben. Unfortunately, Ezra and Luke can't see a complete picture. They have no idea why Ahsoka is trying to kill the kid. They could intervene. But all they can see in vision is 1. Save Ben, and Luke ends up drinking walrus juice, bitter and cynical, his Jedi school gone, as the First Order rises. 2. Let Ben die, and the First Order still rises, but the small Jedi school continues, the Mandalorians unite, and Baby Yoda comes along nicely as a dual Mandalorian leader / Force guy. Cue a pregnant pause, dramatic music, closeups on Luke's anguished face, then he takes another look at the walrus juice scene, says, "yeah, screw that," and chucks his lightsaber through the portal and impales Ben himself. Old 7, 8, and 9 move to "Legends" New 7, directed by Favreau and Filoni, premieres in 2027. Get this man a beer, a chair, a contract and a pen. |

They should have made Lizzo a Hutt
 Anyway, kinda annoyed with how the Darksaber changed hands. The cyborg that disarmed Din didn't even use it nor carry it, just threw it on the ground when Din was incapacitated. Does that mean if the leader puts the Darksaber on a nightstand when sleeping, someone can simply grab it and become the leader? Kinda lame. |

That was a surprisingly sophisticated episode.
Jack Black: always distracting, no matter how much fake beard you put on him. His wife was annoying as well. "If you do this for us, we'll offer you recognition as independent:" a disturbingly accurate portrayal of how third world countries operate. I liked seeing Bo get the saber back, but I wish it had been done more dramatically. The droids were good. They mentioned direct democracy a few times, but we didn't really see any of its consequences other than a mention of the vote to keep the droids in service in spite of the malfunctions. 8/10 episode. Hopefully they close out the season strong. |

Fuck lizzo. 87% of actresses would have been better.
The dark saber exchange was done acceptably for me. Din will end up with it back at some point. Bo will get defeated by some big baddie and Din will defeat the baddie. |

If the Dark Saber is, ahem... sentient - it may not like the transfer. If it's Force favored\influenced then Bo's rule very well might fail again.
It's out of character for Din to offer or give it away so easily, also. He did in initially but that was before learning of it's history. Now knowing he should value it a lot more. |

He also knew that she did technically win the blade back. The first time, it was a magnanimous offer, the second was using that creed-based logic. I assume, if the blade is sentient, maybe it was waiting for Bo to actually follow the path. She did voluntarily bath in the living waters instead of being told to by her Royal parents, and saving a fellow Mandalorian. |
