Dave Filoni's Ahsoka is finally here, and it's not the triumphant return to form for Lucasfilm that everyone seems to have expected.

What's so sad is that the Witches of Dathomir were part of the extended universe. They still used the force, but the super creepy darkside version that was so messed up, they even scared EMPEROR PALPATINE. He legit would not go near their planet and refused to make any moves against them. They are THAT creepy and evil.

Speaking of Disney, I am very surprised that most people do not get this mad at Amphibia for not taking out Marcy Wu's life after King Andrias stabbed her. True Colors began with Sprig Plantar warning us about _intense final scenes_ because the intense final scene in question was King Andrias stabbing Marcy with his fiery sword. Plenty of kids and even adults who watched it were scared and saddened that one of the three Calamity Box girls who was central to the main plot, was killed off on the Season 2 cliffhanger ending. The next episode, Anne Boonchuy is just as worried as all of us about Marcy's death, and denies that she is actually dead. Six episodes later in Olivia and Yunan, Marcy is alive again in the rejuvenation chamber because King Andrias has other evil plans by connecting her mind to The Core. I guess the only reason why almost nobody is upset about Marcy's sudden un-death is because Season 3 of Amphibia found a more meaningful role for her to justify keeping Marcy alive, than what Ahsoka did with Sabine Wren. At the end of Season 3 of Amphibia, all three Calamity Box girls cry, reunite and reconcile for the third time in All In (the first time was in The Third Temple, the second time was in Battle of the Bands). In The Hardest Thing, they fight The Core as a team until Anne alone sacrifices her life to take out The Core. Literally 5 minutes later into that episode, the Calamity Guardian allows Anne to continue living a full life so she can keep improving herself until she is truly worthy of becoming the new Guardian of the Calamity Crystals, and ascending to that higher plane of existence at the end of her life. Anne, Marcy and Sasha say goodbye to all of their friends from Amphibia, and use the last of the Calamity Crystals' power to portal home to their families. Are you happy that Amphibia ended this way, with Anne and her friends permanently parting ways with Amphibia to continue living in their home world, or did you prefer for Amphibia to have a darker ending where Marcy and Sasha just had to live the rest of their lives with Anne already dead?

That’s why I wrote sci fi/military stories as a teen. No need to prop up characters when they are just regular people stuck in war. For my writing class I wrote a story about a joint Chinese/south East Asian regiment of the CCP holding out in the Himalayan mountains against a high tech American/European invasion. No characters need to do anything silly to progress the plot. Logistics and tactics determine how the story goes. My main character dies for nothing. Just a regular low class soldier.

Coming from a family of longtime Star Wars fans, I miss the times when we felt genuine excitement when the next Star Wars movie came out. It’s to the point where my dad nearly named me after Luke Skywalker. Nowadays, we just watch these episodes when we have nothing else to do, and my dad actually slept through the second episode of Ahsoka. We’ve known him to sleep through movies that fail to keep him interested beyond the opening act. I genuinely hoped that Ahsoka would be a diamond in the rough, like Rogue One and the first two seasons of The Mandalorian (I haven’t watched Andor yet, but based on what I’ve heard it’s worth the watch). She’s one of the few characters left that the fans still love and Disney hasn’t butchered yet. I should’ve known better.

In fairness, Luke losing his hand wasn't really a serious wound. He had a new hand and was good as new faster than Sabine recovered in episode 2. The difference is that Lucas generally made sure if a character was going to survive a fight, they'd sustain plausibly survivable wounds that still demonstrated how dangerous lightsabers were. Maul would be the exception but only because Lucas brought him back to life after the fact. He'd never have written for a character get rammed through with a lightsaber only to walk it off, since that would cheapen lightsabers as a weapon. Having them cut someone's hand off in a flash, while not fatal and easily repairable in the SW universe, highlighted the dangers of the weapon.

Pointless lore dump: Witches in Star Wars are originally from the 2nd Ewoks movie, so 1985. The Witches of Dathomir were introduced in the 1994 book The Courtship of Princess Leia, which also introduced the Nightsisters (the Sith to the Witches' Jedi). The original witch from the Ewok movie was retconned to be a Nightsister, soon after. The Clone Wars majorly changed the way the Dathomir Witches worked, ignoring the fact that non-Nightsister witches existed, changing Maul and Ventress' homeworlds to Dathomir, and making Dathomiri into half-Human half-Zabraks. This is, of course, the version of the witches that was imported into Disney canon.

Better tactic: placed the droids nearby but not to close to the hole she came from and while she fights the other droids, activate the bomb. She won't have time to escape.

This made me miss my childhood watching soap operas with my grandmother on summer vacation. At least the stories were cohesive if not always coherent and each episode generally made sense within itself even if it might be retconned without any comment whatsoever the next week as someone was suddenly whisked off to recover from substance abuse or something like that. At least they had the excuse of being a daily program made every weekday almost without exclusion instead of half a dozen episodes done over the space of a year or so giving the writers every chance to make them coherent, cohesive, and complete. Ahsoka seems to be failing at all three of those tasks. And Drinker, you mad studly hero, you give these so-called writers too much credit with "room temperature IQ" because it seems more like "freezer temperature IQ". Why can't Disney-Lucasfilm be relegated to the junk heap of history along with the crypt-keeper scarecrow running it into the ground?

Star wars first premiered when I was a 13 year old kid growing up on a small farm. My dad was very selective in which animal bred with his livestock. Only the strongest and most beautiful creatures were allowed near his precious animals. One day, a scrawny little misfit from the herd jumped atop one of his best cows. Dad started whipping the hell out of that animal. I quickly realized why and joined in. Years later, now, in the present, seeing all this Star Wars content being thrown at us, I kinda feel like my dad back in the day. I see my beloved Star Wars, the film that enthralled me and transported a young, bored cowkid from the mundane, dullness of life, like Luke Skywalker himself is being humped to death by unimaginative hacks with no understanding of Lucas' original vision. I've given up on the latter Star Wars anything, preferring instead to watch the original big three in their original theatrical versions.

Yeah I did read it and no it’s not witchcraft they wield. They just wield the force and believe it’s witchcraft. Luke literally tells them “You do not need to say these phrases in order to use the technique, though if it helps your focus I suppose there’s no harm in it”. The night sisters here are using a completely separate system that includes necromancy and conjuring. They don’t have the same flesh necrosis brought about by dark side force use in the form of the black splotches that form all over their bodies but rather are simply tattooed. So yeah Drinker isn’t wrong here. This isn’t the force they’re wielding. It’s an entirely new system. And it’s not the same as the witches of Dathomar who wielded the force.

Heck, the most interesting is when Syril starts stalking her, as if the whole situation was new to her. She's used to expect backstabbing, not fanatism, so despite her constant domineering demeanor, the thought of exploiting this weird idolatry like other types of femme-fatales never crossed her mind, she didn't feel in control at all.

The thing that made the original Star wars great had nothing to do with the story or the writing. The first thing was the massive jump in the way technology was used in special effects it looked like nothing anyone had ever seen before The second was the interaction between that particular set of characters. Everything else was just a rehash from a dozen other sources. It was never meant to be all that unique or original, more an homage to something that used to be done in a more modern setting. For me I'm going to enjoy it for what it is, it's not like there's anyway I can make it something else so why not enjoy it as it is and be grateful there's something better to watch than the average crap served up repetitively. Sure it could probably be better but I'll take it over nothing, I like the characters and so far the story is not awful.

Tells you a lot about how every "star wars" lore expert has a take on the lore itself. SW universe is a mess of lore takeaways. Take for example lightsaber? It's supposed to be signature weapon of force wielders with one obvious exception in movie cannon that I can think off general grievous, but now, doesn't matter anyone can wield saber stick, they just need more time to hone the skill. - > I wonder where that came from. Basically Novels and comics clash so much, a lot of what fans want to consider cannon is not a cannon and game media has different takes it's just everyone their own interpretation of what Star Wars universe is and isn't, since it became Decentralized (with Disney having now the biggest share there)

Unironically with every new star wars show, I feel the lightsaber as a weapon just becoming weaker and weaker. Lightsabers in the OG trilogy felt dangerous and unstable but powerful, like Vader cutting off Luke's hand looked like it barely took any effort. With the prequel trilogy, they felt like proper weapons, not too heavy not too light, and deadly in the hands of someone experienced. In the sequels and onwards it started to feel more like a bat than a sword, yeah it can still do damage but it felt more like you were wacking the enemy with it more than slashing. Nowadays it feels no stronger than that stick you find on the ground during a walk. It makes me sad tbh

@@neotoad456 LOL I'm 24 first off, secondly you must not know what the word overrealiance means, I can easily concede a *proper* and smart use of CGI and even green screens (to a degree), House Of The Dragon or especially Lord of The Rings are perfect examples. Even still, most modern movies will never come close; Apocalypse Now didn't have a single use of CGI or special effects, even the napalm strike they used a legit payload and had one single take, the choppers and APC's and boats and explosions and fire, for f*cks sake they actually had dead bodies from a morgue in a scene (though obviously I don't expect that from any movie lol), and virtually no war movie will ever come close to the sheer authenticity and immersion of that film and a few others in that league. Now admittedly and IMO that's a special film so I'll use the example of the original Star Wars, no other entry has ever felt as authentic and 'real' as the original trilogy, and it's because of the real props and stop motion and miniatures, the set models and detail, or take Alien and Aliens 1986-they feel incredibly authentic and it's easy to get immersed, everything looks and 'feels' real and modern entries to the franchise feel laughably fake and soulless.

Drinker - I agree with everything you said - except about Ahsoka. 5 episodes in, I'm loving this show. Especially eps 4 & 5. I confess I watched all 7 seasons of Clone Wars - twice - and all 4 seasons of Rebels - also twice - and Ahsoka grew to be my favorite character of the entire franchise!! She is arguably the most developed character in all of Star Wars. And while you're correct that the main 3 characters of Ahsoka are women... Ahsoka herself, Sabine, and Hera - that point isn't even pointed out nor belabored. IMHO, this is the least "woke" SW I've seen since Rebels. We got Anakin in eps 4 & 5, and Rex and the 501st in ep5. As I said, I'm loving this show... the closest thing to George Lucas we've ever gotten out of Disney. And as of ep5, she has been transformed into Ahsoka the White. Gone are the sullen moods along with her gray robes, and the Mortis Daughter shines through her now. She smiles more in ep5 than the entire previous 4 eps. She has been "reborn" and Dawson's portrayal of her reflects the same. I greatly respect your views and opinions and have subscribed to your channel for years now, and, as I said, I agree with you 99% of the time. The sequel trilogy sux!! I didn't even bother to watch the last two movies. I haven't seen Solo. I did watch BoBF... is was just "ok." But Ahsoka, imho, is the exception, along withS1 & S2 of The Mandalorian. S3 was just "ok." Rogue One was really good!! I kind of get the feeling that your deserved hatred of all things Disney has unfairly colored your view of Ahsoka, but that's just mho. You're entitled to your opinion, and I'm entitled to mine. No vitriol nor judgment intended here. Just a request for a fair (mho), assessment of Ahsoka on its own merits. :) May the Force be with you... always!!!

Being stabbed by a lightsaber is now like when you stub your toe, ye it is pain for a while but you will get over it.

This reminded me of an early Venture Bros episode, where the bee henchman had a lightsaber that did absolutely nothing.

it took me 3 days to go through episode 1... and I am watching it only to be able to understand (and agree) with your review... mind blowing, you are helping to sell this show. 🙂

It's strange. I watched Ahsoka ep1-2 immediately after finishing The Bad Batch. It's like night and day how literal clones somehow have more distinct personalities than this stoic yet colorful bunch.

It reminded me of treasure planet, all other characters didn't understand the sphere map, but the MC just messed with it for a bit and had the thing working for him. I don't mean anything against treasure planet, it had different messages that worked, where this show appears to not know what it wants to accomplish, so it's stealing from better content.
