I think in most cases they are just cutting out the middle man. I wonder how many screenwriters have become so lazy they were using AI themselves.

I odnt think it was writen as a show. It's like somone wrote a manga instead of a story board and then took out the internal dialogue of the characters then just left the scenes in silence.

HA HA HA 🤖This is a human laugh.

Would people accuses George Lucas of writing like AI? Or is his dialogue so distinct that no AI could replicate it?

​@@Edax_RoyeauxGeorge Lucas isn't the best writer out there but he did a nice job with the OT, these people on the other hand are just talentless overpaid hacks

It’s in the movie and it always makes me laugh. Both armies are charging each other (Star wars using world war 1 logic without the trenches) droid shoot the clones weapon so he just keeps running and socks the droid right in the faceplate, hurts his hand then get swiftly shot in the face by said droid. A Wookie, Lasat and a force user should be the only things punching droids and it actually doing anything.

Of course, like on most things, TCW is very inconsistent on whether droid-punching is a viable strategy or not. There is that example, but there are also tons more in the show proper of clones, named or otherwise, punching and kicking droids successfully.

Why was Bad Batch so good this past season?

@@Flufferz626 did someone mention Bad Batch? Personally I’ve never enjoyed the bad batch, it does exactly what I don’t want from Clone troopers. Some of my Favourite Clone wars moments are the humanisation and characterisation of what are supposed to be disposable soldiers but there interactions with each other and their commanding Jedi were the highlights while the Bad Batch are super soldiers which immediately looses my interest because I prefer the struggles of the actual soldiers less so of their super soldier Generals and commanders.

@@houghtonjojo8944 wait what it shows how all clones are human. The episode with Crosshair this past season with Mayday was some of the best Star Wars. "You're dead weight" then picks up Mayday. Then brought him back to base and begged to give a medic, then he died. Crosshair then forces the Imperial to face him, then kills him. Very awesome story. Not to mention Tech, holy cow character development

"The ancient civilization hid the secret to the route to another galaxy deep within this square of shag carpet; unlocked only after a vigorous nibble with the mouth. Who do I know who could help me unlock these ancient secrets?" - The scene Disney really wanted to write.

I mean, I really don’t want to start anything, but there has been few politicians that consistently made absolute fools of themselves, people just overlook it because “he’s on my side” instead of demanding better.

The weird thing is, he initially does seem very angry. His tone in that first scene is appropriately "she's in trouble, and most of you are too", but then the next appearance where he actually confronts her... Well, he doesn't. Perhaps the physical presence of Main Character just sucks all the personality out of people in this show?

@@italianspiderman5012The point isn’t that politicians don’t make fools of themselves lol, the point is that they would obviously not be _happy_ about appearing that way.

This whole show is an exercise in "...well if you know the source material...". Basically, "if you know the source material" some of this stuff *sort of* makes sense. In this case, that governor, played by the always awesome Clancy Brown, was a character in Rebels that was also voiced by Clancy Brown. In Rebels, he was the governor that was arrested when the empire took over Lothal, who broke out of prison and eventually led the local resistance. To some extent, you can rationalize this by saying "he doesn't really give a shit about being embarrased in front of these people, because he's one of the main people who saved their asses from the empire" Now, for anyone who hasn't seen Rebels (i.e., most of the audience) this isn't even remotely explained, so that rationale has absolutely no weight here, and criticism of it is entirely justified. For me, I enjoyed that he got a cameo, because Clancy Brown is awesome, but damn if that isn't one of many examples in this show of expecting the audience to just shut up and go along with what's happening. The upside of this is that, because this is based on Rebels (Pretty much the only decent contribution to SW lore by Disney), there's absolutely no way this will be as bad or as damaging to the brand as Obi Wan was. I absolutely despised that show for its pointlessness and multiple character assassinations, and the fact that they are following the same patterns here but ruining their own lore rather than George's means that only people like me who are (overly) fond of Rebels and clone wars are really gonna feel the sting from this one.

@@crypussy I could be completely wrong. But I'm pretty sure he was a fighter pilot who assaulted the inquisitors in the kenobi show. He wasn't a core character, or even side character. Just a ship that exploded and someone yelling "Wade!" super dramatically. Then again, could be thinking of a different reference, but I'm pretty sure that is wade.

I mean, they really should have seen it coming. TLJ already established all Wades have the force, that's the point of showing Slave Child Wade pulling the broom with the force. Slave Child Wade *CANT* exists if his ancestor, Wade, doesn't live to give Leia a child after her embittered divorce with Han like he does in the comic book prequels to TLJ, The Legacy of Wade. EFAp doesn't read external media tough, so, they'll probably think it's "contrived" when, in actuality, it's one of the most beautiful arcs across the franchise.

Incredibles has some of the most efficient and well written dialogue and scenes that a film can have.

In just two minutes we establish and reaffirm the belief's of Bob, Frozone, and the state of the world as a whole regarding Superheros. And the dialogue is done in a way that is just for lack of a better word, human. It feels exactly how two retired superheros would talk in a world where they can't use their powers.

With clone wars they worked a tight deadline with George Lucas and many other talented writers for Dave to take the credit for Clone wars in it’s entirety is ludicrous. (I’m pretty sure he doesn’t personally take all the credit for Clone wars) The whole set of people with limited resources and budget made some of the best Star Wars content when the company was bridging on selling to Disney but they had a very important thing and that’s passion to make what they wanted to make. Now there is no passion there is no hardship in the creation or even a point to make anything other than repetitive nonsense since it almost always makes the same amount of money with the people that still like the flashy colours turn your brain off entertainment. (Extra note Clone wars is like Fallout New Vegas some of the best content made on a tight deadline from the scraps of other things and is still better than everything new from their respected franchises)

@@Resijew That's not as funny.

@@palladiamorsdeus That makes sense. Star Wars has been reduced to a tourist trap that the locals moved out of long time ago.

Star wars these days would only appeal to people who have JJ's simpleton understanding of the universe. They expect to be able to see every planet in a single system blow up individually in multiple points across the sky from hundreds of lightyears away. These are the types of people who think starships wouldn't be able to know which direction up is.

That doesn't surprise me in the least. I would absolutely expect the sort of people who enjoy modern Disney Star Wars to not know the difference between a galaxy and a universe. Anyone who can unironically enjoy and praise shows and movies with such appalling writing are hardly going to be intelligent.

This retcon is insane 😂

There is such a thing as events in between movies/shows. I don't see why it couldn't have happened. Sabine approaching Ahsoka after rebels to train makes perfect sense to me.

this is a company who hires writers who cant write, actors who they tell not to act, im surprised we get such consistent sh_t at this point. even blind squirrels find accorns, these losers should get lucky and maybe LEARN how to make better products every once awhile

"Because it's sci-fi why would we want medieval fighting choreography" I'd be has been said nearly verbatim by an EP on at least one Disney starwars

You don't need to just get the guy who did the fights for the prequels

Or just get Nick Gillard given the reputation of the Prequel duels.

Yeah, I do HEMA every week and some of our newest members fight better with foam practice swords than the actors in this show.

Ah yes, of course, the mandalorian disrespecting the memory of their fallen comrades. You know, that's like the exact opposite you'd expect someone from a nomadic warrior culture would do.

Sabine has always wanted to do things her way and has lack maturity for that so that didn’t change. How is she a jerk for missing a ceremony based on her sacrifice and heroism for saving a city ? Especially when they’re depressed and have crap memories from that past that they’re celebrating on. Her entire civilization is fucked and two people who she can consider family again are either dead or missing. You’re right, how dare she think for herself and not just show up to please the public who don’t need any further more pleasing. Ashoka is also depressed , you expect her to be her old self like in Clone Wars ? She was betrayed by the Jedi Council, her close friends from that order are all dead. Her entire effort in the war was a waste cuz Palpatine ended up winning. Then the Jedi Order was vaporized. She went through two major wars. Her master ended up being the most evil person in the universe and played a part in the extermination of the Jedi. She feels she’s part of the reason that this happened. “Oh but bro , why is she not as happy anymore. “ Thinking is hard Also this is a fucking galaxy. I don’t think she expected to have these mercenaries find them so quickly. Letting Sabine go with the sphere is because she knows her state and knows this is the way at the end for her to solve it since she’s the only person who knows who can solve it so giving her space was a good call. Point is people aren’t perfect and they change and evolve either for the best or not

@@olivierquetel8204 Sabine liked doing things in her own style, but she didn’t go out of her way to bail on other people just to go off and do something else, her “depression” isn’t an excuse. If you’re expected to speak at a ceremony and you just leave with no good reason, that makes you a jerk. The problem with Ahsoka isn’t that she’s depressed, the problem is that she comes off as dry. I’m obviously not expecting for her to act exactly like she did in the Clone Wars. But I still want her to have more of a personality than what we’re seeing now. Ahsoka made it very explicit that the map is incredibly important and shouldn’t get into enemy hands, and taking it away from a secure location puts them at a huge risk. Even if the enemy didn’t ambush Sabine, she shouldn’t have taken it in the first place.

@@KelShu my guy, I use to be in a dark place and I ended up doing dumb selfish things. I can argue that Sabine the way she acted makes it spot on. Depression works in many ways. You don’t have to be sad. Ahsoka being literally lifeless or emotionless is a good example of one I agree , I think Ahsoka could have at least stayed closer to Sabine while leaving her alone . Ahsoka should have also mentioned that people are currently searching for it and they’re force powered mercenaries.

@@olivierquetel8204 I’m sorry, their depression doesn’t get a pass from me

And she along with the rest of the ghost crew had multiple inquisitors chasing them

Hush now. She's just a reference, and references don't remember canon

This is probably leading to the origin story where they completely downplay the spirituality of it

@@silverscorpio24 Luke is known by this point as well.

Also, Rebels had some good stuff in it. For a modern Disney animation it's not as bad as it could be. Like, check out final duel between Obi-Wan and Maul. This show actually committed to some decisions and I believe it deserves SOME respect. Not much, but some.

@@vitato I think it deserves a fair amount. But generally unless something is amazing all the time the EFAP crew seem pretty invested in finding excuses to hate it, and ignoring reasons to like it. Don't get me wrong, a lot of shows deserve hate, but not every show. It seems like their only concrete complaint is about pacing, but a lot of classic Star Wars has a slow pace. If you want an ADHD paced film, watch Rise of Skywalker, but this is not that, and this is a fair amount better and it's a hell of a lot more thoughtful. Idk, imo it feels like the EFAP group goes in with a "Let's heckle this trainwreck" mindset, before they have any idea what the show is.

You think their only concrete complaint is the pacing? Seriously? They don't just "find reason to hate" things because they're are a lot of reasons why certain things deserves hate and they smack you in the face if you're paying any amount of attention. Also why shouldn't they assume that this show was going to be bad given all the other bad Star Wars content shat out by the mouse year after year? What shows don't deserve their hate I wonder because I notice you failed to list any examples. They don't go in to every show with a "let's rip this media apart" mindset, they go in with a basic standard of competent writing and see how the story measures out, even with the shows they think will be bad and they do praise certain parts and aspects they think are good, so stop being blatantly dishonest about them. This is a very poorly thought out comment that mirrors the equally awful ones they got back when Mando season 2 was coming out. Do better.

@@matthewreyes5951 Thinking Ahsoka is going to be bad because other Disney Star Wars is bad is like thinking any sequel to a good movie is going to be good just because it's the same IP. IP doesn't determine quality, it's the creators/showrunners who do, and Dave Filoni has demonstrated he actually cares a lot more than the showrunners of these other shows. And yeah, a fair amount of times it feels like they are looking to dunk on the show because that's their gimmick and so they are looking for excuses for their insults. When EFAP goes into the a show with the mindset of "Welp, time to be Statler and Waldorf and crack wise on this shitshow." it's going to be very hard for them to give an impartial assessment. I think they are like you, where they hear the term "Star Wars" and make assumptions about the quality based solely on the IP. And like I said (and Andor demonstrated) that's a silly way to do things. If you want to come into a show with pre-formed expectations, do it based on the show runner, not the IP. IMO

@@esotericVideos Wrong on everything again. “Thinking Ahsoka is going to be bad because other Disney Star Wars is bad is like thinking any sequel to a good movie is going to be good just because it's the same IP.” No it’s not because it’s all under the same Disney umbrella and they have a proven track record of bad Star Wars. You’re just ignoring reality here. “IP doesn't determine quality, it's the creators/showrunners who do, and Dave Filoni has demonstrated he actually cares a lot more than the showrunners of these other shows.” You’re only half right here and again are ignoring Disney’s proven track record with Star Wars. Also caring and being passionate about something by itself does not necessarily determine quality as Ahsoka and bad fanfiction proves. You require much more than love and/or respect to making something good. “And yeah, a fair amount of times it feels like they are looking to dunk on the show because that's their gimmick and so they are looking for excuses for their insults.” Prove it with examples, because just stating “yeah this is what they do because I say so” as fact doesn’t cut it. Dunking on shows is not their “gimmick” as you so wrongly put it, critically analyzing things is, but you clearly cannot distinguish the difference and want to act like they’re just mindlessly bad-mouthing things with nothing to substantiate their claims. If their sole goal was to dunk on things they'd never say anything positive about the things they criticize like Ahsoka, but they do. Your dishonesty is on full display here. “I think they are like you, where they hear the term "Star Wars" and make assumptions about the quality based solely on the IP.” They’re nothing like me because they’re still willing to give Star Wars grace and I am not. They were able to enjoy Andor while I couldn’t despite being able to acknowledge that it is well written show. Also those “assumptions” are not unfounded give that Andor is literally the sole good thing to come out of Star Wars under Disney in almost 10 years. That’s 1 good thing out of how many bad again? “And like I said (and Andor demonstrated) that's a silly way to do things. If you want to come into a show with pre-formed expectations, do it based on the show runner, not the IP. IMO” You’re wrong because again, Andor was the sole good in a sea of bad. 5 bad movies. 4 bad shows. 1 good show (haven't watched all of the Clone Wars and need to rewatch it from the start to know its full quality so I'm leaving it out for now). That's a 1 out of 10 so its not silly at all to assume Star Wars media will be bad. And if we’re to pre-judge based on the show-runner and not the IP, I have some bad news buddy, Dave Filoni is certain not that good of a writer to be as gracious as possible towards the man. There was more bad episodes in the Clone Wars then most people are willing to admit to and Ahsoka is very bad itself.

And the governor is her friend, they liberated Lothal together...

No, I think she's not there because of guilt, not despite it.

If the writers wanted to make her look cool they really choosed the worst out of all ideas. Skipping a cerimony in memory of her fallen comrades really doesn't make her look cool

Should’ve been killed by Vader in the season 2 finale

Andor was written by someone who actually wanted to tell a good story not just trot out popular characters (at least from other series) for easy cash.

I didn't watch Rebels past season 2 but I felt like she should have been in it much more as a main cast member and then been killed permanently. She was a good character in Clone Wars but she had no business surviving into the movie era.

Uh, the *OT* era, rather.

Andor was the only exception lol everything else is destined to be shit.

I do feel like the fact that the stab doesn't do much is rough, the thing is that it was probably to prove a point that she's shit at using a lightsaber and the force which seems to be something she's constantly struggling with. Could filloni have used something else to illustrate that? Sure. But it's pretty clear that it did illustrate a point and wound Sabine, just not physically.

@@taanwallbanks9841 I agree, I just think there’s a way to do so without physically injuring her (if nothing is going to come from the injury), or make the injury obviously grazing.

@@BlossomingAnalysis yeah i agree, it could have certainly be done much better, i just feel like people are exaggerating a bit with how important that stab is or should be

@@taanwallbanks9841 All it would really take is Sabine engaging the sith, fighting a losing fight for a while, then have Asoka show up to turn the tide of the fight. Rather than having a ponderous scene of Asoka getting the call, getting her things, getting in a ship, setting off, you just have her get the call and get moving. We cut to Sabine, who's markedly losing her fight, then when the Sith shows up she gets shot at by turbo lasers from the ship while Asoka disembarks. You establish Sabine as competent enough to at least not die to a young sith in a 1v1, you establish she can't BEAT them either, and all without needing to maim or injure anyone in any way that might present problems to your story.

@nananamamana3591 I guess that works, the thing is, when it comes to lightsabers Sabine is supposed to be at least slightly incompetent. She needs to conclusively lose this fight imo for her arc. We know Sabine can't beat shin, and Sabine (should) know that too. so what's her mission objective? To stall her until backup arrives. If backup does arrive and she's uninjured, even if it does look like she's losing it won't feel to many viewers like shes bad at being a duelist, even if she is, and the show wants us to think that. A decent padawan would be able to do this task, and it's important for this arc that she's not a decent padawan. This is also the main first fight where we see Shin. Ideally we want to see Shin's power, and Sabine's weakness, and the less conclusive the fight, the more likely you'll only see one, or both to a much lesser degree. I don't agree with the injury filloni chose, but there should definitely be an injury.

No no, you see Qui-Gon hit both of blast door stomaches so it melted.

It really does seem as though were now in an era where modern Hollywood writers' knowledge of narratives comes from their history of being a gamer. It' so sad to see. I remember a screenwriter once saying that the problem with modern gangster films, by and large, is that none of the newer writers have read any novels. They are simply inspired by having watched Scarface a dozen times. We're now at a point where modern screenwriters aren't even influenced by other movies when it comes to structuring their plots, but rather quest logs from video games. There's so little of worth left in the talent pool of modern Hollywood and I genuinely hope that the ongoing strikes result a great deal of the current writers losing their jobs and going to work in McDonalds (which is where they belong).

@@Right_Said_Brett My point was that Filoni thought turning a dial to match the patterns on the wall was something he thought was complex not because he took inspiration from video games specifically. You can still have puzzles that challenge the player's intelligence (KOTOR 2 Nar Shaddaa freighters, Warcraft 3 shadow orbs just off the top of my head). Which makes it worse when he's trying to pass off Ahsoka as smart and capable. But you're not wrong in that modern screenwriters takeaway all the wrong lessons from video games. Likely because they lack interesting life experiences.

Filoni's actions later in TCW were the worst thing to happen to Star Wars since the closure of West End Games and before The Last Jedi. 2010 was the first break that really would spiral out of control as the EU was culled and the Reboot Trilogy was launched. Followed by further sidelining of the old talent behind the Star Wars media empire and by Disney putting new, awful writers who then sunk the book brand as well which Disney took to mean "books don't sell anymore" instead of "our books are bad." Continued to sideling Timothy Zhan and... ugh.

Finally somebody else agrees that filoni can’t be fucking original and has to steal and then butcher actual good stories in legends. I’m thinking clone wars was like 10% filoni and 90% everybody else, and he took all the credit.

@@romannumeralvii4285 The good parts like characterization, I can believe that. The plot and writing, no way. That's solely Filoni, even if he took ideas from others. There's no way he'd let anyone else write anything for a plot or idea he has. It just isn't in his character. Unless he is directly instructed by someone with the power to fire him he will refuse to obey any structure or continuity. I will state there is no such thing as truly original as everything is based on and taken from something, but Filoni is stated directly by most of those he's worked with to be incredibly difficult, arrogant, and grabby with other's ideas and making them his own. He also is outright identifying himself as despising working with any vision that isn't his own and will actively throw away anything that gets in the way of what he wants to do. He took the person responsible for maintaining continuity in Star Wars and threw him out of the writers' room during TCW. His treatment of Mandalorians is detestable by all possible conceptions.

As a massive fan of Republic Commando and Jango Fett: Open Seasons, I wholeheartedly agree. Filoni basically caused the canon/legends split back in 2008 with TCW. It's really sad to see people praising him for "saving the EU" by stealing a few references here and there when he was partly responsible for breaking it in the first place.

Pretty clear indicator that it wasn't his writing that made them good.

@@palladiamorsdeus Or maybe it was, but he took wrong lessons from it.

Or maybe being a director doesn't mean you can write good.@@user-xx6vy9ri8p

Filoni can’t be given complete control, he needs good writers, deadlines, and to steal from old Star Wars legends. Otherwise he is nothing but unchecked ego. The Clone wars hype went to his head.

@@user-xx6vy9ri8p or maybe he was always overrated and kept in check. It’s not the first time.

Darth Fring: “I was isolating the potential to wield the force.”

I have a bad feeling about this...

"Stupid Kenobi took too long to defeat Maul and get him medical attention, that's why he died. Cause he was still alive after the stab" That was an actual comment I saw, btw. LOL

Wait, in defence or for the memes? Cause that's retarded if it was a legit attempt to defend it

@@mellowgeekstudio I bet when they will remake PT in like 2040, they will have an out of place quip when Qui-Gon speaks to Obi for the last time: "If only you learned FORCE HEALING like that BABY in our temple!" and then he dies...

Like Aria Stark getting her guts stirred with an assassin's dagger and just sleeping it off with some clean bandages and hot soup

@@kva1770 well, how hot was the soup?

And they always pull it back out instead of just flicking it to the side and bisecting them.

With everyone overlooking the main point, which is they need the friggin map to find Thrawn, but that would've turned it to dust lol. Like WTF? It's like Filoni forgot that was the goal, and not trying to assassinate Ahsoka with a nuke. They could've just done that while she was in the tomb trying to solve the puzzle.

Amazing! It's almost a one-to-one rip-off.

Yeah, that drove me crazy! All thanks to Sabine? What?! Where the fuck are the actual heroes of the rebellion?

@@HerohammerStudios YES! EXACTLY! The show could AT LEAST say their names periodically. Nothing.

I think that’s the only bit of good writing these people are capable of. knowing that they can’t write for the original characters so they stopped at Luke

@@davidmendez3899 feminism and forced diversity have every bit of talent out of disney. Now all they have left are HACKS like feloni.

Lothal - the planet this takes place on was freed before the battle of Endor with little to no help from the greater resistance and was nearly -20 years- before the battle of Yavin. (Had time wrong I think it was actually liberated a year before Yavin) So the ceremony doesn’t mention the rebels, Han, Luke or Leia because they had no part in liberating Lothal and at the time of liberation - Han - still a smuggler Leia - Still a imperial diplomat Luke - still on tatoonine Extra Info for those who can’t read or not understand, the above is not saying when the show is set but when the planet they are on was liberated. The ceremony in the show is a annual celebration of the empires defeat on Lothal, this show takes place post fall off the empire but they still would not mention 3 hero’s that weren’t around when the planet they’re on was liberated. Also Rebels has a cop out ending were Sebine says the Rebels expected an Imperial counterattack that never came so the Empire gave up on Lothal for reasons.

Nuke? That's a stretch. It was like a big incendiary bomb.

@@zonefreakmanMy point still stands. If assassin droids had this kind of weaponry on them, they would've been able to quickly kill her, but we did that scene for an explosion and will now forget about it.

As some have noticed and pointed out (but should definitaly been explained, hera should have questioned how it leads to thrawn or something) but the map shows purgill, the space whales, so it seems to be a map of migratory purgill routes and since thrawn was taken away by purgill the map should also lead them to him. Its a decent explanation so I don't know why they dont explain it.

@@arvatrontheiv2220 I would bet the whales are just there as a reference and no one on staff remembered or knew.

and CUT her lovely hairto like another FEMLEZ... sick of femlez

@@arvatrontheiv2220 So...who tracked the purgils from Lothal to another galaxy and instead of telling Palpatine made this map and hid it in ancient temple?

You also forgot to add "why is Thrawn waiting to be found? doesn't he want to come back? He's a sentient creature who's supposed to be a genius, who you'd think would know what galaxy he comes from given all the time he spends traveling through hyperspace so why is he just waiting?" Most star wars macguffin's are retarded, but this frankly takes the cake.... an ancient map to a person from the modern day.... jesus fucking christ Dave, what is wrong with your brain?

The stone she cut would fall on them first, and then she would use the Force to jump back.

​@@user-xx6vy9ri8pwhat if she just kept falling and couldn't jump out? What if it was lava? What if it was just the ground and nothing happened? It's dumb. Plain and simple.

@@axiss5840 She has the Force and can sense what's inside.

​@@user-xx6vy9ri8pIf she could just sense what was in there, why did she both doing the puzzle?

@@kw9849 To open it.

Ahsoka doesn't act at all.

@@user-xx6vy9ri8p "Wait, crossing your arms, having one smug expression and long pauses between sentences isn't a sign of great acting?" - Disnoid

Perfectly well put

I don't think the map is to thrawn, it's to the place where thrawn happens to be. It's probably existed long before thrawn was born, because the existence of a hyperspace route to a different galaxy is probably a much more important thing that would get its own shrine. How they know thrawn is there for certain, would require me doing a little bit of writing for filloni but not much.

Easy. He had the script with him.

Boom. That's so funny. It's because he died in the process and sent the video as a force ghost. 😂

This feels like a “the writers didn’t watch the show” but these writers wrote the show. how do you forget the most recent thing you wrote for your own show

He left a message before going on his mission in case he didn't come back.

Update: they beat me up and stole everything ☹️

​@@The_ImplicationsYou're promoted. I know captain material when I see it.

Cmon using Arcane is just cheating when comparing it to Disney Eh fuck it they suck ass cheat all the way

Oh, the misery!

@@grandarkfang_1482 Everybody wants to be my enemyyyy!

Me when watching Ahsoka: OH THE MISERY!

You're definetly not alone in that. I was very confused by that plot point especially since it seems like Sabine has no aptitude to using the force anyways. I never really liked Sabine in Rebels either because she just seemed way too good at basically everything for no reason and the fact that they're making her a Jedi even though that was like the only thing she couldn't do is just very cringe fan-fiction-y.

You are not alone. It is something that even the most learned Star Wars nerds could defend it. I mean, even the robot says as much.. “The least force sensitive padawan ever!” And Rebels never so much as hinted at Sabine being even a little force sensitive.

@@rammisalami I swear, Dave Filoni has Zero concept of Continuity.

Someone needs to tell Cosmo that his Sabine prediction came true.

I think it's just one actor, Mark Rolston. He was in both Aliens and Shawshank Redemption.

Yes, you may be right. He was one of the “sisters” in Shawshank iirc; for some reason I thought he’d streamed with the Warden from that movie too

​@@petery6432 Clancy Brown also was in Shawshank redemption.

Well first you have extract information and then destroy it.

It’s been a while since I watched rebels but I’m assuming Ezra sacrificed himself so they could assume Ezra would be ok with destroying the map so there really isn’t a disagreeing party

@@kirbth4769 Yes, he did sacrifice himself. Imagine sacrificing yourself to defeat a bad guy and save your friends and then later your friends save you, saving the bad guy too and putting themselves back in danger. If all of this goes wrong (which it won’t but it should) then that would make Rebels-another series Dave Filoni created-almost entirely pointless and irrelevant.

Episode 5: “Hold My Beer”

@@samlund8543 OMG lol I'm scared I don't know if my body can handle episode 6 🤣😂!!!

Well the windows were broken when they jumped into hyperspace, so they should be dead, but nobody addresses that..

I think that they should start dropping in the sound of crickets whenever it occurs. Maybe have a gif of a tumbleweed rolling across the screen.

I wish they'd check out Tartakovsky's Clone Wars. That series was great and didn't break canon like the CGI Clone Wars did.

It's not bad, it simply shows that you have good taste. Why would anyone with good taste be excited for a new episode of a terribly written show? I still haven't seen anything of Andor. I know that the EFAP crew praise it and I don't doubt them, but my interest in watching Star Wars these days is less than zero, thanks to Disney. The only way I was ever going to watch Andor was if their were reaction shows on EFAP and their weren't, so I didn't. If someone had told me a decade ago that in ten years time there will be a live action Star Wars TV show which is critically praised and yet, I wouldn't even be bothered to watch a single second of it, not even a trailer; I would have called them insane. Yet, here we are... It's just so sad.

@@Right_Said_Brett Stick with EU, this is the thing wrong with most star wars fans, they are always dependent on TV when the EU comics and games hit freaking hard.

Tv is crap now, boring and lacking meaning. Efap is entertaining and insightful, so I'm with you.

Neither is out of character for her, to be fair.

@@matthewcollins4773 I'm expecting the try-hard edgy girl to become a spinning roulette wheel of morality that expects people to sob over her tragic backstory too

Plot twist: the guy in the black armor turns out to be Mouse

It's a shame they used her for this role, 'cause she'd be a perfect Darth Zannah, Darth Bane's apprentice.

I thought she was popular

@@jcore0981Eh, reception was mixed, especially in the early seasons where more often that not she was just a dumb brat for Anakin to banter with. She had her moments, sure, but she didn’t really come into her own until the second half of the show.

Which to be fair to the show is like a good 3 seasons. Which I know it'd be better to start strong, but it beats basically anything Disney has done of late (besides possibly Andor but I haven't seen it).@@samlund8543

Alice from the hit TV series Batwoman in jedi form

They had the head of it, not the body where the explosive is

To be fair to the show, they only had the head that doesn't contain this nuke device, but they're still risking the hospital with the smaller explosion from the head.

@@sleep8646 maybe, maybe not. We don’t know that part is not nuclear when detonated. What we do know is they have the ability to explode into a massive ball of fire. Dialogue would’ve clarified it, but Dave did not even think of it. Even if not nuclear, they’re risking an explosion inside a city hospital in a heavily populated area. Hera, a military general casually tells them to, go for it. “It would be 9/11 times a thousand.” Lol

Not only that but the whales are the things that inspired Hyperspace for the first space travellers and are ancient/Fabled to most.

But if they knew where he was, so much so they even made a map to him, why didn't they just pick him up if he was so important to the imperial cause?

Yea space whales is one of the stupidest things introduced to Star Wars.

​@@Deterex525This is the thing, the show hasn't yet explained who made the map, why it was hidden in a dusty ass tomb, or how Not-Dathomir-Witch knew about it.

Why is there a map in some ancient tomb that has Thrawn's exact location despite him only disappearing 9-10 years ago? That's like finding the directions to Dwayne Johnson's location inside the Pyramid of Giza.
