The Ahsoka episode 8 finale is HERE! There's a lot to unpack when it comes to what we just saw with Thrawn, Elsbeth, Ahsoka, Ezra, Sabine and most of all...BAYLAN and where he's going. Let's get into it.
I think this sets up the future of Star Wars really well.

The character of Baylan was mostly great and Ray really enjoyed playing the role as evidenced by his acting. The problem is that we did not really get a sense for the "power" he was seeking. Also his dismissal of his apprentice was not really explained other than him telling Shin to find her place in the uprising of Thrawn. Add to that Baylan didn't have a single line in the finale. These things are Filoni's fault for not giving Ray to do other than speak in generalities and look awsome in his outfit. Also now after some time to reflect on this show, I'm really disappointed in the show on whole. Lars Mickelson may have been a good voice person for Thrawn in the animated show but he does not have the screen presence for a live Thrawn. I also didn't not like that a once Jedi who survived Order 66 (BTW, how many Jedi survived? We were led to believe that Obi Wan and Yoda were the only ones...otherwise why did these two pin all their hope on Luke and Leia when the likes of Ahsoka and Baylan Skoll were around?) turns Grey which now gives him a reason to murder people. Also hated that both Baylan and Shin had orange lightsaber blades. Lazy writing. The show also fumbled Sabine arc with her using the Force.....Ezra was boring and him and Sabine's reunion was blah. I did like the flashbacks with Hayden those scenes were done well but his appearance at the end as an actual Force ghost was bad....I mean why isn't he in contact with Luke.....at all and where the hell is Luke in all this? Yeah Yeah I know....don't ask. I really thought Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau were going to pull SW out of its funk but there is too much Kathleen Kennedy going on. Even Mando Season 3 was a hot mess. Don't even get me started on Book Of Boba and Obi Wan series. None of the characters are the stars of their own shows anymore! Now there's going to be a other female character driven show coming out next year....The Acolyte....and after listening to the lead in that show open her mouth at Celebration along with the fact that one of Harvey Weinstein's former assistants is going to be showrunner means more Woke BS....well after woke Hollywood is crashing and burning. George Lucas must be having a hard time going to sleep at night knowing what Disney has foisted upon the viewing public after running the most popular movie franchise ever into the ground.

"Old enough to know that a relationship between a Master and Apprentice is challenging as it is meaningful." and boy if that wasn't Kanan and Ezra's relationship to a t. I think some part of Sabine WAS jealous of Kanan and Ezra's relationship when she looks at her own failed relationship with Ahsoka...But you're right in the sense that she herself let Ahsoka down, not the other way around. Kinda like how Rey said, Kylo turning Dark was him failing Luke...Not Luke failing him. Because the vision everyone harps about...Luke was never going to go through with that. Ben assumed. And lashed out. He didn't trust Luke, which is understandable from HIS point of view. It makes you wonder then, if Ahsoka failed Anakin by walking away...that's something she very much thought about for a long time.

@@fungusz_4292In Star Wars: the clone wars, the Mortis episode shows Ashoka’s death. She is then brought back to life later in the episode when the daughter gives ahsoka her own life essence, which kills the daughter in the process, but the essence of the daughter remains in ahsoka from that episode on. From this it can be easily argued that ahsoka would be the best new daughter for Mortis.

​@yoursonisold8743 that's what I was thinking as well. My personal interpretation of Thrawn is that he thoroughly assess every situation and creates countless contingency plans so that he doesn't have to rely on irrational and desperate moves. The only time we truly see him experience a defeat is when his commanders choose to act on their own ambitions in the last minute and divert from Thrawn's original plan. That, and when the absolute random and completely unforeseeable thing happens when pod of mythical space whales from folk tales appear out of nowhere and pull the mother of all deus ex machinas

I love seeing Anakin but it’s stupid. Anakin should go and visit his son if he can roam around any galaxy freely whenever he wants 🤦🏽‍♂️ He should be spending time with Luke and Leia and probably should’ve visited them. Why would he be spending all this time watching over Ahsoka but not his children… he must have secretly loved Ahsoka all this time for her to be a priority over his kids. They use Anakin just to make us feel nostalgic with empty scenes including him that leave more questions than answers. Him hanging around doesn’t make sense.

I don't think they cut much of him, the.season storyline was centered around Ashoka / Sabine relationship and her accepting overcoming the fear of turning into another Vader. And the outer conflict of getting Ezra back Home. Baylan and Hati are just leads for future storylines that can progresos the Jedi Mythos further and Maybe Even getting around the Sequel Trilogy timeline.

The 'it's time to move on' quote for me seemed like a farewell to Anakin, and a farewell to his legacy and that it's time for Ashsoka to move on and live, without Anakin's presence. It actually seemed like a farewell to Anakin, and the look that Anakin subsequently gave cemented that. No one else has brought this up, every one just assumed Anakin will always be there, but I interpreted it as a passing of the torch.

Ray Stevenson's performance as Baylan was truly fantastic. The world of Star Wars is a little dimmer with his passing. Now and odd theory/question to pose to everyone. The statues of the father, son and daughter confirming the prior presence of the mortis gods on Peridea and the lore that states that they imprisoned and then abandoned Abeloth after she drank from the fountain of power and bathed in the pool of knowledge. Morgan also confirmed that the night sisters originally come from Peridea. We all know that the theories about Abeloth have been thrown out there by the fans ever since Baylan mentioned something calling him. So the theory/question is, is the reason the night sisters magick is so different from the jedi or sith's use of the force possibly because their magick is derived from Abeloth who is possibly imprisoned on Peridea the planet of their birth? For what better example of chaos which Abeloth is supposed to embody than raising the dead. And does this mean that it's possible the fountain of power and pool of knowledge is on Peridea as well and that's what's calling Baylan?

Nightsister magick is VERY powerful. Remember how Dooku almost died in the clone wars simply because Mother Talzin used a lock of his hair with magick to kill him? Yeah that same magick is used to increase Elsbeth's power to new heights; the same way it did to Savage Opress. Even when we see Ahsoka and Morgan's first fight in Mando S2 E5 she managed to disarm one of Ahsoka's sabers. Yet with her new power she easily sliced Ahsoka's shoto saber.

I thought it was consensus that Maul was holding back because he ultimately just wanted to teach Ahsoka a "lesson" and get her on his side. Ahsoka was losing for most of the fight and only won at the end when Maul became overconfident and she pulled off a difficult maneuver (how Maul usually loses). This is as opposed to Morgan 2.0 going all-out to murder Ahsoka.

I am just disappointed that they didn't give us the true threat at the end and now we might not get to see Ray ever interacting with what he was looking for. Ray was amazing! The other issue is that Disney won't let anyone get dismembered. Lightsabers cut body parts off like butter and it really irritates me that Disney won't let it happen. Everyone has seen Star Wars and knows heads, hands, and every other body part come flying off when having a lightsaber battle. Enough with the censorship.

Maybe, but not very well put together. Some of the duels and lightsabre action looked poor. And the story and dialogue not much better. Far too much blind worship of Filoni. I'm not convinced that this is the story Star Wars needs to propel it back to box office success. For fans of the cartoon shows, I can see the appeal. The most interesting aspect was regarding Baylan and Shin... that would be worth a show on it's own. Sadly Ray passed away- he was phenomenal in this and has left tough shoes for any other actor to fill.

He was also taught by not only Kanan but Ahsoka, Yoda, Obi-Wan, and even Maul taught him some lessons, not to mention the old Anakin lightsaber training holograms that he used to practice.

The first time I watched it, I was a bit underwhelmed. However I think it was because we all thought there was going to be some big fan service or reveals. Instead Filoni did what was best for expanding the story and showing the character progression. Watching it the second and third time I just enjoyed it for what it was, and it was an awesome episode. I really think now, Dave Filoni should be in charge of the storyline from this point forward. He has shown with this series that he can use his discretion to make the right decisions for the overall story. I was not actually upset that Sabine could use the force. You have to remember that she did train for a long period with Ahsoka. It also gives greater significance to Ahsoka forgiving Sabine and showing her own character progression. I think Sabine’s struggles to use the force were related to a mental block from the trauma of losing her family and fearing falling to the dark side. They also subtly showed through sound that her force powers are considerably weaker that Ezra’s. When she does a force pull and push it’s not as loud or forceful. She still needs a lot of training to get stronger and perfect her powers. But we have to remember Obi-wan was considered pretty mediocre in terms of midiclorian count but through sheer determination and endless training became a master of soresu and the force. I think in the next season it will show that Sabine still has a long way to go with her training. But in general I was extremely happy with this series. I just really hope they don’t link it to the sequels. I mean they used Ashley Ecksteins voice in Rise of Skywalker. Hopefully that is the timeline where Ahsoka died in the duel with Vader and this is a new timeline. You could actually still have the Sequel characters but tell a better story. Perhaps following the Thrawn trilogy then the Dark Empire timeline. Where you could bring Palpatine back but perhaps Ben is not turned and maybe Rey becomes the Dark Acolyte. You don’t have to get rid of the actors or characters just please Disney write a better story.

I absolutely respect FPJ for not coming back to do Kanan. It's as Hera said. He's truly gone. But he lives on in his family. Both by blood and by bond.

“He always stood by me, no matter what anyone said. That’s why no matter what happens next.

Even with his new cosmic role, he wants to be there for his “snips” during this difficult time. Shit is so beautiful Amazing finale to what’s been the best Star Wars project in a very long time. The time and effort that Dave Filoni and everyone involved put into this deserves all the praise. There’s still so much more to tell with this story though. I hate that we didn’t get more of Baylan’s “power” that was calling out to him. Since he didn’t die in the finale I’m guessing that means he’ll be recast? It hurts so much because Ray was an absolutely amazing actor and a great guy, but the character just has too much potential to let go right now. I think we all expected there to be some kind of catch with all the “I can’t wait to go home” lines that Ezra was dropping, but I didn’t think he’d be the one going home and they’d stay on the planet. How are they gonna get back to the main galaxy? This is going to be so interesting. If they’re out of the picture, surely Luke, Leia and Han gotta be involved in the coming projects.

No, you miss the point. It's a very bad finale because Anakin is just a child looking over Ahsoka instead of looking over Luke and further looking over Ben. Dave Filoni is just killing star wars making "fans'" believe they are getting memberberries

Sabine just mastering the force out of nowehere 😂 Finally force pulled something for the first time... and not 10 seconds later used force push for the first time... a completely opposite ability to force pull. Ezra either would have been pulled back to her, or fallen. Does this not feel the same to when Rey was using force pull and then friggin force lightning happened... a completely different force technique?

To be fair, both force push and force pull focus on moving an object or person. They may not be exactly the same but they are similar, at least she can't use force heal and force lightning without training like Rey could.

Honestly pushing is probably easier than pulling. And she did train, so it's hard to believe she was never taught or attempted a push. Now, admittedly they were reaching with that far ass force push but you also reaching with the Rey comparison because her feat literally makes zero sense. We got no reason to believe Rey even knew wtf force lightning was, much less mastered it to the point of being able to detonate a starship. And inheriting ACTUAL force abilities and not just latent talent is an even dumber explanation

I think Thrawn will be the new big bad but needs the witches to counter the Jedi variable. Thrawn has a fleet ready to go at his beck and call. The Republic will be slow to recognize the threat until it's too late. The setup is perfect for a new trilogy to arc to the sequel trilogy. That along with the individual series can carry Disney for quite a while. I hope this arc brings everyone into live action. I can see Luke, Han, Chewie, Leia, Mando, Lando, all the force ghosts fighting along with everybody in the Mandalorian and Ahsoka series doing battle with Thrawn and his new fleet...

​@@shawnsanders9450yeah I agree. To be fair tho Sabine is a Mandalorian with a lot of weapons experience Sabine's force ability was limited enough that I'd be fine with it, as she did spend a decent amount of time training under Ahsoka before but still couldn't force pull. Still shouldn't realistically last that long under a trained padawan like shin Ahsoka was kinda weak, but her enemies were pretty tough. But like theory said she did already take Maul, which should let her take on almost anyone. It's all plot, but plot that I am generally pretty satisfied with

Sometimes we lie to ourselves about our fan favorite stuff even though there is something wrong with it. So she can't just be bad ass Mandelorian? We got to make her Jedi now? Its dumb. She should have been killed at least twice over from the dark apprentice even IF she had a little Jedi power and Ashoka after all this time should be Mace Windu powerful. That dark apprentice has been training since she was a little child.

Sabine was a member of clan Wren which was a subsection of house Vizsla so it’s very possible she is related to Tarre Vizsla. She also got a reaction out of the Bendu in rebels season 3. She also shows more understanding of the force in rebels than the other characters with the exception of the two Jedi. Side note: Star Wars forces of destiny (shorts) is where she takes her brother to see the statue.

I got to say I really hate how this show doesn't call out her giving the map to the enemy, they just give her a slap on the wrist and a pat on the back as if she didnt just cause the Galaxy to go to hell, and also to, why hasn't Ahsoka contact Luke Skywalker? You would think he would be one of the people that would be most interested stopping this catastrophe, also Han Solo To he is a general, he'll even throw in Lando since he also blow up a Death Star, the show didn't even bother to give an explanation as to why none of these characters showed up. Heck, where is even Zeb he also cares about Ezra to I thought. He didn't even get mentioned.

It’s such a bummer that the actor for Baylan died. I still hope this Series continues, hopefully becoming a whole new Saga with a whole new order or force users far far away in the galaxy. Pretty much starting a new, since we know the sequels will fall to a definitive end to both Sith and Jedi eventually, which is why I don’t really want are character to go back. Either way this series opens up so much potential possibilities and refreshing ideas. So Yeah

I felt like they ripped some stuff from Lord of the Rings... "You will die on this planet alone"... "Not alone" reminded me of Helms Deep where Gandalf says "Theoden king stands alone"... "Not alone".... Then Ahsoka and Sabine blindly jump off the ledge but land on the ship, like Gandalf jumped off Orthanc and landed on the eagle... Then Baylan is standing on the giant statue which looks like the Argonath, the giant statues from Fellowship. Heck, you could even add Gimli's "I cannot jump the distance you'll have to toss me" where Sabine essentially tosses Ezra onto the ship.

If you read the Sons of Dathomir comics, you see the power of the nightmothers fully released, so much so that even Sidious, the most powerful Sith in canon had trouble with her at first. I think the reason Ahsoka had trouble with Elsbeth is because Elsbeth was fueld by the remnant powers do Mother Talzin.

My Man, so glad to watch this video, finally a creator who properly appraciates this series fornwhat it is an not overly nitpick an state how basics they'd have done it better. With your couple of critiques the Ahsoka, Elsbeth fight & Sabines force competenve. think there are a few things to consider, 1. The 1st fight between them (Mando) was fairly even for a bit, but Ahsoka won out, like yoi said this is Elsbeth 2.0 & also with the Talsin sword. 2. There was a shit load of zombiebtroopers around as well so feel Ahsoka still had to keep an eye in them just in case (think elsbeth had control of them at this point, and in her arrogance/revenge wanted to kill Ahsoka herself hence keeping them sidelined), 3. We already know Ahsoka does have a tendency to get distracted and at the time Ezra & Sabine where trying to get on the ship an stop Thrawn so perhaps she her focus was slightly split/lost due to her attachment to them (an we all know what Yoda said about attachments). 5. Yeah defo could be a vizla descendant, but also, for example in sports there are plenty of people who appear to lack potential, but sometimes they are the ones who become professional athletes, also feel being on Perridia an inside that Henge could have played a part too. But like I said thoroughly enjoyed this breakdown. This series very much gave me Empire vibes, with Ahsoka's Mando appearances being New Hope, so s2 & the movie should be ROTJ. My only real issue is when did Thrawn clear the space mine field lol
