You can explain it to them, Joe. You can’t understand it for them though.

Someone pointed out Ezra has never met Jacen. He doesn’t even know he exists.

That’ll be some emotional meet up.

I'm pretty sure, at this point, it could end with 2 episodes of the leads sitting on toilets taking shits and there'd be 3 pages about what a genius Filoni is.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Four episodes in now. Really well made show, interesting story as well. Hope to watch the next two episodes today. Will then watch the last two episodes shortly after their release.

I think it definitely gets better and more engaging as it goes along so you’re in for a treat.
Last week and this weeks episodes are just the stuff of dreams. Huge payoff for all of us invested in it all

Excusai moi
We generally don’t fanboi about Filoni here I don’t think? But if it was well written and added to the story, such an intimate episode with good writing could actually work.


(Didn’t they do something like this in clone wars? A few times? Random characters stuck together in a situation they can’t get out of? Sunny day in the void, comes immediately to mind)

I do have criticisms about this show B. But they’re petty stupid ones in the main.
Heras make up is so utterly awful. A kid going to a con could do a better job and many already do. There’s no excuse for it to be this bad.
And the story is too gatekeepy and needs you to have seen rebels and clone wars to get the most out if it. Surely there were ways to make it more accessible?

And chopper hasn’t committed any wars crimes yet. Why even have him there if you’re not going to use him?

Etc

Idk if it is canon, but apparently there was a live action night sister appearance in 1986 in the Ewok movie

I enjoy the show. I enjoy Star Wars, but if can't make fun of the completely implausible concepts and remind ep of how TRoS is the second worst movie in the franchise, then why does Star Wars even exist?

Well it looks to me all this is being set up to explain at least the palpatine in rots of it all.

But palpatines clones and return are well covered in all the legends material which they’re also drawing from

So it’s hard to use it as source material and also take the piss out of it. They’re between a rock and a hard place there

While I watched rebels and 90% of the clone wars - I didn't comb the internet on a daily basis going deep into every thing.....and it's been years ...

So, I know I'm missing quite a bit with this. This show is fantastic and mostly stands on its own, but it still rather unfortunate it seems you need to be a clone wars and rebels nerd to really feel the impact of all of it.

My wife has enjoyed it, and she has barely watched a second of the cartoons. She has had quite a few questions for me though.
