You didn't think that was hilarious? I just don't understand you. It's like whenever I think we'll find common ground you have to disagree. I'm sure Scorcese would have been really fucking proud of that scene. :shake:

Jesus. I'm going back to the beach.

To be fair, he believed the Chewbacca's dead fake out in TRoS. He may not have ever seen movies before.
yeah, im well aware of his..mm taste..but still, cmon.
I'm literally shocked that this scene worked for you guys.

I feel like I'm living in an alternate reality!

That wasn’t gushing! I mean how Tara was able to perfectly time the door closing for OB1 to get through but not an ounce of water. Seems like a nitpick, but these small things can add to/detract from the authenticity of the action.

I noticed, but then they tried to hide Leia under a coat, and the water didn't seems so egregious.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Yeah that was bad. It was funny in a “I can’t believe they’re doing this” way because they should’ve been spotted immediately.

The funny moment that wasn’t actually funny to me was the drowned stormtroopers floating in the flooded hallway

Also Tara neutralizing the two Stormtrooper guards flanking her. The first one, she just kinda pushes up on the chin of his helmet and he’s on the ground. :lol:

The action in this could be so much better.

You weirdo I'm using hilarious the way you use embarrassing.

Hilarious as in unintentionally hilarious! As in absurdly dumb!
So yes it was hilarious. And you agree with me. Stop trying to fight me no matter what!

That was my favorite episode so far. The action scenes in this show always seem to feel small, cheap, and chintzy, but I think that's just baked into the cake.

This is BAD.

Use your B squad on a new one-off Star Wars property if you’re desperate for streaming content, Disney. Stop fucking around with what should be your prestige tent poles.

Did John Williams forbid them from using his music for this series?
