I can't believe there's an article about that.

Is that longer or shorter than other episodes?

What secrets could that hold?
And initial reports said it was 50+ mins... SO WHICH IS IT????

I feel like Ahsoka could fit into 50 minutes, but definitely not 45.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Agreed. I actually don’t think I ever finished it. The only really cool thing was the one dedicated to that new special effects system they used instead of blue screen. The rest was just nothing but a big circle jerk of them telling each other how great they are.

I didn’t realise the amount of stuff on the Disney app.
Watched the making of TROS last night.
Will probably watch this too.

Was Olyphant's character's speeder a modified thruster from Anakin's podracer? I couldn't take my eyes off of that thing. Incredible.

Also, Olyphant was the shit. Deadwood fans know what's up.

If you enjoyed him on Deadwood, you should enjoy him on Justified. A handful of actors from Deadwood show up on Justified, too. It's a great show.

Sascha banks has confirmed she doesn’t return for the remainder of this season.

I doubt that means we don’t see bo katan again, but what if it does and it’s Ahsoka for the remaining episodes?

Also this. Good short interview with Espisito. He even talks up a great bad guy.

It’s been so long since I’ve seen that, I don’t think I knew he was in it.

I’ve caught up on episodes this season. Thoughts...

- The visual effects and production values are amazing for a tv show. This is what George Lucas was trying to get at when he started this on TPM

- With it being a 10 episode season, you have to fill it with a ...uh...filler. A lot of clunky dialogue and repetitive fighting. May have worked better condensed to maybe 5 episodes that focus on one or two threads. Feels like a video game when the NPC needs help with a task in order to get something in return.

- that Krayt dragon episode was crazy. And the aqua port on Trask was incredible. I can’t believe they can do so much with so little.

- the little nods to EU and other stuff is awkward in my opinion. The Easter egg mentality of new Star Wars has never sat well with me. But I guess that’s the direction they take it and if other people enjoy it then that’s cool

- I think maybe Carl’s episode felt the most movie cinematic so far. They’ve all been directed great but it feels like there were a few more movie feels in his.
