Ryan, Ahsoka's ship ID is T6-1974, which is Dave Filoni's birth year. Not sure it that's why, but I couldn't think of any other reason for it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah, Ryan messed up. Sabine is living in Ezra's old hideout which is an old radio tower but not the one the message was sent from. You also see Ezra's old painted scout trooper helmet.
That communication tower isn’t the one the Ghost crew sent the transmission from. It’s the tower Ezra is living in at the beginning of Rebels and where Sabine first sees Ahsoka’s ship arrive in the Rebels finale
It always devastates me when someone is introduced to a franchise (i know he played Gar in Clone Wars) and they end up passing before seeing the fans reaction and love for their character. We have only seen 2 episodes but im infatuated with his character and his history. RIP, Mr. Stevenson.
I love how in the Second Episode when you see Chopper he acts just as he did in Rebels :) If you pay close enough attention you can hear what Chopper is saying too its amazing how much they kept true to Rebels
Throughout Rebels Chopper is listed as "playing himself" but in the last ep he is credited as "Dave Filoni". Chopper is my favorite droid in the whole of Star Wars because he has the most personality!
Its almost a 1 to 1 replication of that scene from the kneeling, the helmet on the table even on the meaning of getting ready to face your fate. I am shocked they missed that in this video
Yeah except the Ahsoka version was overly long and slow and didn't need to be drawn out so much. Raiders was a much better example of how to do a scene like that.
I liked seeing Clancy Brown as Rider. It's funny because they designed the cartoon character after him in real life and he voiced the character in Rebels.
It really only works out if the voice actor's character happens to be designed like/look enough like their real life likeness, and has acting experience.. like Clancy and Katee. Wish they were able to do it more but the options are limited. Hoping for starkiller some day..
Along with Andor, this FEELS like 'Star Wars' more than any other shows & movies of the multiple past decades. Also, sad that Ray Stevenson is gone. I followed him ever since his role in the HBO series 'Rome'. He played that character brilliantly.
When Sabine survived the lightsaber wound, I had to laugh, because Charlie Hopkinson has a great running gag in his videos about how being stabbed by lightsaber was a problem solved 5 minutes after Qui-Gon Ginn died from that type of wound. - Great stuff from Charlie, I highly recommend his videos!
Charlie is HILARIOUS! I’ve made some comments here pointing to his channel too. I think Charlie just released a video about Ahsoka yesterday. I’m sure Qui is going to have a lot to say🤣🤣🤣
it should be pointed out .. A. they have seriously good medicine *unlike america in general and someone got to her quickly and somehow the lightsaber missed her spine .. because probability
*This is not just a series but a complete emotional fan event for Rebels fans Dave Filoni & Disney did something incredible(giving Dave permission to do anything)*
I’m absolutely loving the show thus far story wise, and as someone who grew up with Clone Wars and Rebels, seeing all these characters from the animated shows in live action was just marvellous to watch. Not to mention that the music is also wonderfully woven into the story as well. Bring on Episode 3.
I think there’s a good chance we see Force Ghost Anakin in this show, reassuring Ahsoka that his turn wasn’t her fault and encouraging her to train Sabine. Spoiler/Edit: well well well, how the turntables....
Didn’t Anakin, as Vader, tell Ahsoka that his turn wasn’t her fault already? When they fought and she broke open his helmet to reveal his eye. Maybe I’m remembering wrong. I guess they could do it again for the show though.
@@alexp601 ...I don't _think_ so? I know he did in the Obi-Wan show, but I think when he & Ahsoka met in Rebels, all he said was her name (after his Force-spirit-vision blamed her several episodes earlier for what he had become). It's been awhile since I saw the episode, though
Just amazing. The kind of star wars you love to see. Clear heros and villains, lightsaber fights, deep lore, amazing callbacks. Why cant it all be like this?
@@kajetankesicki8011 oh man, Andor was fantastic. It was amazing in a different way. Bummed out that the writers strike will delay the next season. I have the last jedi more in mind, or rise of Skywalker. I try to take films and shows as they are but the way they treated Luke was disgraceful.
Probably the best thing Disney has done yet. The nitty gritty detail to this show is INSANE. The holograms just look so authentic, the costumes are perfect. THE EYE OF SION?????? A KOTOR REFERENCE BABY LETS GOOOOOOOO
the predictability of the show shows their contempt of human intelligence >or maybe it shows their intelligence ?< finished episode 1 I bet the apprentice lives just watched episode 2 I was right want to know what happens at end / they sort of win 4 now all enemies not destroyed that leaves the story open so can make more
I was so worried about how they would hit the rebels characters in live action but they nailed it. Like wow. Music was incredible, action was solid, and the emotions were immaculate
The casting choices of who got to reprise their animated roles and who was recast are still a bit of a head scratcher. Love Rosario and it's great to see Clancy Brown, but why not Ashley as Ahsoka? I also think Vanessa Marshall would have made a great live action Hera.
@@RogueBagelI think Vanessa Marshall would have been the one to pull over instead of Ashley. (I LOVE Ashley, I really really do, but she is so petite and Ahsoka isn’t) Mary Elizabeth Winstead almost seems too young! Her performance (so far) lacked that the maturity and confidence that I think animated Hera was known for.

@@Justgurowaaaah waaaah waaaaah. That’s you. You can survive being stabbed in the gut even with a lightsaber you just have a very low chance of surviving. If Dave is overrated so is Andor and the Rogue One😂😂😂. Go watch the sequels
Sabine wasn't having a force dream.. she was having a nightmare. It was ezra's exact video message to the crew after he took thrawn on the purgill ride just with Eman Esfandi.
C3PO (and by extension, all protocol droids)? all of the B-1 battle droids? 2-1B (medical droid from OT)? IG11? K2SO from Rogue 1 and Andor? L337 from Solo? There are a bunch of droids that speak intelligibly (even more intelligibly than Chopper) all throughout Star Wars content.
These two episodes really felt like a prelude while watching them, which is cool to see they actually were with that scene of Sabine in front of the mural... I think this show is going to pick up steam incredibly fast come the next episode.
@@shustyrackleford7692 how does the length of an episode matter whatsoever? All clone wars episodes lasted 20 minutes and were packed with action, lore and story. You're logic is irrelevant to the comments point.
I disagree. This felt like a sequel, which I fully understand it is. The problem lies in the studio poorly introducing the characters, like they expect everyone to have watched multiple children's cartoons previous to watching this. Casual fans like myself have no problem with introducing characters from the cartoons, but they need to do it properly. Ashoka's introduction in the mandalorian is a great example of how to do it right. Her introduction and portrayal in that show is why I started watching this
@@FIxIoN420Absolutely not. Disney does not need to reintroduce well established characters because some refused to familiarize themselves over the last few years. This series wasn’t sprung on anyone. That is an unnecessary waist of screen time.
I don't get this perspective. You can say this about pretty much any new movie or franchise. We are always dropped in the middle of a story with characters we are not familiar with. As long as we learn about their history along the way why does it matter?@@FIxIoN420
i just love chopper. i love his little arms. i love when he commits war crimes. hes just a great little droid, no one else is throwing a tracking device on another ship
They nailed everything. Chop was my fav moment so far because his mannerisms are exactly like in rebels with the arm movements and everything. Cant wait for next week!
To explain the love for Chopper, he's a much more violent R2D2. War crimes is his business, there is no mercy from the crazy little guy, just like how HK-47 never gave a fuck.
The attention to detail and clear love for the world of Star Wars that Dave has makes the first 2 episodes of Ahsoka miles ahead of the sequel trilogy already
Sion could also be an homage to KOTOR II’s Darth Sion, who was a centuries old sith that stayed alive by hating on his enemies. Maybe a metaphor to how Palpatine’s machinations are everlasting and permanent?
Honestly that was my first thought as well. Interestingly he was also missing an eye, and it seemed to be one of the major dark side induced mutations on him. Another interesting point there is you can't beat Darth Sion through combat; the encounter ends with conversation where you convince him to give up his hate and let himself die.
@@cole71 Actually, they’re not wrong… doesn’t make them right, but it is an interesting similarity given the use of “Eye of” and an S name ending in “-on.” Add in the themes of resurrecting evil, evil building power in the shadows, and a generally dreaded villain, and I’d say it’s a tad too close to be a coincidence.

@@CrazyNerdSarahno, then it would just be Ashoka all the time, he has nothing else outside of the animated shows. Get the show runners for Andor and I'm on board. I need adult Star Wars as a fan since 80'.
Ezra's painted scout helmet also makes an appearance in the comms tower when sabine enters it for the first time in the show on the right side of the door
Great story so far, compelling characters, beautiful visuals, exhilarating SFX and inspiring music... I could never have dreamed that Star Wars would make such a comeback so suddenly with just these 2 episodes. I am blown away by this show already.
MISSED EASTER EGG: When Ahsoka returns to Home One, the ID code she gives is T6 1-9-7-4. Thats the month and year that Dave Filoni was born. Loved how this show started off. I compare tasks like this (catching up half an audience on so much story in a short amount of time) to how it was executed with Fellowship of the Ring. There were easter eggs for hardcore fans, simple enough explanations for new or live-action-only fans, exciting moments, and emotional moments. Not to mention stellar visuals and music. Good job all around. Love this channel and breakdown!
I like how the show isn't explaining everything upfront. People who haven't watched Rebels or CWs can slowly get brought into it. Also, I'm liking Sabine's limited force abilities mixed in with the Mandalorian heritage and her rebellious personality.
So, I didn't love Dawson's take on Ahsoka in Mando, buuuuut, that changed very quickly with this episode. She did some facial expressions that just felt sooooooo much like Ahsoka, I was sold lol. And, I want a loth cat more than ever. 😅
Funny thing is that I feel the opposite way. She felt more feral in Mando and I think that fits her character. In Ahsoka she is fairly tame, wooden and cold. I was kind of disappointed in her but really enjoyed the show otherwise
I’ll be honest, I didn’t think this show was gonna be as good as it has been so far. For rebels fans like myself this show is absolutely amazing so far, and I beg if you haven’t watched rebels before this please do, it’s so worth it especially with this show tied onto it.
I absolutely love Rebels, but I’m kind of disappointed so far. The pacing is kind of off even if they are trying to set up the story. Also the lightsaber duels specifically with Ahsoka are really slow and boring and just feel poorly choreographed. Hopefully they get better. Not saying I hate the show, but I think it could have been a little better. I’m glad the trailers haven’t given away much
I really like the villains(balyon is great RIP) and special effects and ships are great! I just don't like the transition and how they scrapped all the rebels voice actors and still wishing ahsoka looked better same with the lightsaber duels. The story is there so ill keep watching even if I am upset its not animated etc, just for the story!
Yeah stop listen to Ryan Shit on rebels, it's actually a top tier cartoon, chopper and Ezra are both great characters, and then you can fall In love with them and the rest of the crew. Chop>>>>>Grogu.
@@thefirstguyjaek255If I judge SW Rebel's by the 1st 2 episodes I would of never loved the show. The same goes for Andor, Tales of the Jedi, Mando, & TCW. Watch the series first before u making such a claim.
@@autobot111 I am hoping that a life size Chopper item will be available soon. How can anyone not like him? He’s hilarious, always dropping f-bombs, and chooses violence every morning
Never seen rebels, but this character had me laughing and somehow lol I understand him 🤣 it’s muffled English , you actually can understand what he saying, pretty cool
Ashoka solving the puzzle to get the wayfinder to thrawn reminded me heavily of some of the puzzles you need to solve in the Jedi fallen order/survivor games. Pretty cool to see that in live action!
Yeah where the theres a ding sound when she spins the puzzle in one direction signifying that its solved they could have made more intricate its to boring.
Whilst waiting for these episodes to drop, I avoided any spoilers, and instead spent a day or so binge viewing the list of 'Essential Ashoka' on Disney+. It jogged my memory for some episodes, gave me the chance to see some I had not watched, and gave me an even greater appreciation and love for the character and her evolution. I found the final season of Clone Wars to be particularly powerful, and very moving. I loved these first two episodes, and cannot wait for the next installment.
I like how Disney keeps mentioning the old republic: the eye of sion, the hk droids, the canon version of the star map, Mandalore the great, the rakatan cyber crystal, etc.
It's not Disney that's hinting at the Old Republic. It is Dave he is an old republic lover that's why in clone wars they show Darth Bane and the rule of two.
I love Chopper. He was so awesome in Rebels. I was surprised to hear that you didn’t like him. I also love the actress who plays Sabine. She did a really nice job. And Rosario Dawson did at least one good Ahsoka smirk. I thought the first two episodes were exciting. I didn’t like how washed out the colors were when they were focusing on the master and apprentice working with the witch. But in general everything looked great.
One thing that wasn’t mentioned, was when Sabine touched the starmap it made the same sound that was made in Rebels pointing out that Ezra was force sensitive. The sound wasn’t as strong as the one made for Ezra but it was still a nice touch

Idk, I loved rebels, but I felt a severe lack of emotion in all the line delivery. Don’t get me wrong. It was beautiful. But I think they did Hera so dirty, and I cheered out loud when Sabin got stabbed. How can a non force user be a Padawan.
You should have mentioned that in Sabine Diary, which was an official release, she says that having long hair under her helmet makes her sweat. So she hasn’t worn her armor and cutting her hair was a sign that she was ready to pick it up again.
The white fade in at the beginning of episode 2 is also an homage to the same fade used when Frodo first wakes up after being rescued by Gandalf from Mount Doom in Return of the King
@@lcbrown2119 Supposedly Dave had been seeing Ahsoka as a kind of Gandalf like figure, As noted by the white cloak she wears in the Season finale of Rebels as opposed to the gray one we normally see her wearing. Obviously, he's retconned that ending a little since she's still wearing gray when she picks up Sabine at the end of these two eps.
@@TheRealAlpha2 Ahsoka the Grey and then after the Worlds between the worlds, Ahsoka the White! She’d be cool to see in that white robe from end of Rebels.
the circle patches on sabine and hera's left arms, yellow circle on red background, was the patch for the 7th fleet or open circle fleet. Which was the fleet commanded by obi-wan and anakin. you can see the emblem on the destroyers over coruscant in ep.III.
A couple of items missed in this video: the scoop Sabine uses to feed her lots-cat is a 1970’s-era Tupperware cup measure, the biggest being that Baylin and Shin fly around in an Eta-class shuttle and the dark Jedi who fights Ahsoka on Correllia has an inquisitor-style blade and armor reminiscent of the Knights of Ren.
Im surprised you didnt point out the parallel of Sabine cutting her hair off before beginning her mission to rescue Ezra, in the same fashion as Kanan did in S4 of Rebels before beginning his mission to rescue Hera from Thrawn.
It’s so good to be back! I’ve been so looking forward to new Star Wars breakdowns! Keep up the amazing work! Also, at 14:05 the logo on Hera’s jacket is actually the emblem/logo of the Ghost and can be seen stamped on the side of the ship in a few places during Rebels. And at 18:29 , the communications tower Sabine is in was the one Ezra used to live in/the one Kallus broadcast his Fulcrum messages from, not to one they broadcast their rebellion message from, since that one got blown up by the empire. Sorry to be Um Actually-ing so much haha
I hope you know that the only SW content George made were the movies which are still and will always be canon. The EU was never canon and it wasn’t made by George.
George Lucas also did The Clone Wars, not only the movies. But - please no more World Between Worlds! I personally hope they somehow merge the old Thrawn Trilogy and new Thrawn into a main movie event featuring Luke, Leia, Lando and Han, Ahsoka, Din, Grogu, Chewie and Krsantan. I terribly miss Mara Jade, Talon Karrde and Winter, as also C'baoth, Pellaeon and the Noghri. Hope they include them. But I think a multiverse or time travel has absolutely nothing to do with Star Wars. So I hope they simply tell a new story in the canon. I don't want the terrible multiverse effect of Marvel in our Star Wars. 😢
I'm impressed you didn't mention when Baylan looks up from the stone circle on Seatos and there is a silhouette of a purgill that passes through the clouds
The map and how it was unlocked was a reference to Disney’s Treasure Planet in which the protagonist Jim Hawkins unlocked the map in that movie the exact same way.
The way people just keep trying to link something to other properties or previous star wars is straight up weird It isn't on purpose rhey do it cos rheybare creatively bankrupt and have no original ideas 😂
I thought it was a nice touch filling in some of the gap between the disappearance of Ezra and Thrawn up until the final shot of Star Wars Rebels. They established that Ahsoka and Sabine attempted to have a Master and Apprentice type relationship prior to the final shot on Rebels. Both their rebellious nature as learners. Ahsoka has matured as the years went by. I love the idea of their relationship. Ahsoka seems to be in denial that she had the exact same personality as Sabine. I am really looking forward to the trials and tribulations that will test their relationship during the course of the series
Really makes me wonder if Ahsoka ever consulted with Luke about training a padawan, and if he advised her to take on Sabine...or to walk away from her. Come to think of it, isn't it a little odd that Luke never even comes up as a potential aide for solving the map? They could even have said this is where he gets the idea from in Ep 7, lol
Oh I been looking forward to the SC videos for Ahsoka! When it comes to Star Wars I will be watching the breakdown videos and other ones. I was like aw yeah when I realized that was Clancy Brown in the show! What I love about these videos is it made me realize what I noticed but much of what is mentioned I would have no idea if it wasn't for Ryan and the SC team bringing all this together highlighting this great new Star Wars show.
A lot of Jedi games in this show. The path reminded me of the path to Tanalorr that Cal navigated with the force. The ball puzzle at the start sounded like the zeffo temples too. When Morgan says she is a suvivor. It calls back to Merrin 'Survivors, we adapt' Ahsoka working out the angle of the guy who 'didn't do politics' hints at the training she got from Padme Amidala
When Sabine is trying to read the information from the droid head, the scanner she is holding is actually a retro Space Invaders handheld game that they painted.
Excellent breakdown Ryan, pure genius! You're the greatest buddy, the episodes just came out and you have an amazing video broken down every detail going back and forth to the original, unbelievable! Thank you!
There’s a big reference I feel like you’re missing, the probe droid that flies over to Shin as she slowly meanders into frame is very similar to mauls interaction with the probe droid in Phantom Menace
In Ep. 2 when Huyang talks with Sabine, I thought he would say something along the lines of..."but what you lack in Force awarenes, you can compensate with your rather...unique skills. You are Mandalorian...and the only time you're wasting..."
HOLY COW! That is a great detail linking the new, young senator back to the Rebels episode💛 I did not catch that at all and i just finished rewatching every episode of Rebels last week😅
Sabine, while she was laying out her armor, acted in the same manner as Kanan did in “Jedi Night”. She even moved the blade and cut her hair in the same motion.
I Dave Filoni we trust. He has such a passion for Star Wars, a knowledge of what came before, but not making it fan service. He truly cares about this story and the characters
Kind of a minor detail I noticed: the hologram effect we actually have seen before-the Umbara arc in Clone Wars, specifically on the Umbaran base that Krell & the clones capture.
I noticed some Easter eggs that hasn’t been mentioned that I know of. For example in Episode 1 at 30:15 mark at the foot of the bed is Ezra’s scout trooper helmet he wore in rebels. And Episode 2 at 5:14 Baylon sees Purgill in the clouds. Sooo cool!
I thought I saw Ezra's painted up scout trooper helmet in shadows when we first saw Sabine in her "house". Also, the hair cut scene Sabine did was VERY similar to the one that Kanan did at the end of Rebels when he cut off the pony tail in deference to his mullet!
the predictability of the show shows their contempt of human intelligence >or maybe it shows their intelligence ?< finished episode 1 I bet the apprentice lives just watched episode 2 I was right want to know what happens at end / they sort of win 4 now all enemies not destroyed that leaves the story open so can make more
Loved both episodes! Loved that they revealed a Night Sister! The only question I have is, Y would a Night Sister be helping the Empire to rise again? The Empire Destroyed her home planet and all her people! I know Dave will explain it all eventually though. 😎
The night sister reveal was really amazing. But, Dooku, General Gervious, and the droid army killed the night sisters before the rise of the Empire. The massacre happened 20 BBY.
The opening bit with the star destroyers are also an homage to the openings of the movies with a star destroyer. But in the movies we see the underside of the imperial star destroyers but in this one we see the top of the new republic ones mirroring them and showing how they've changed.
I'm glad some people enjoy that, and I don't wanna sound like the Disney haters, but the ST honestly makes so little sense that I don't think it's salvagable, and every attempt to tie in the OT/New Republic to it just drags them down and makes me a little more depressed because it just reminds me all over again that none of this really matters because the ST is just gonna destroy it all anyway...
What if they change something in the past, and it creates an alternate future, where Luke never leaves the Jedi Order. But there are consequences to changing things in the past. Basically, we get a new different sequel after Return of the Jedi.
Tantive is pronounced "tan-ta-VEE", as canonized in the Radio Drama and audio books. General Rieekan is pronouned "ry-KIN" as spoken by Solo and Leia in Empire. Two tiny pieces of feedback, loved the videos an all of the references! I hope they continue to dive into this era and take inspiration from Andor (and ignore Kenobi compeltely). Cheers!
It's amazing to see the characters from Rebels come to life! Great casting, for the first 2 episodes, for all the main characters: Ahsoka; Sabin; Ezra; Ryder; and even Chopper. However, I'm not crazy about the casting decision for Hera.

Ryan, Ahsoka's ship ID is T6-1974, which is Dave Filoni's birth year. Not sure it that's why, but I couldn't think of any other reason for it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ryan please I beg you do a video about Darth Maul returning in Asoka there’s so much teasers please we all want to see it
At the start of Rebels Ezra was trying to collect all the different kinds of storm trooper helmets. I love that Dave put them all back into his tower!
I was worried we wouldn’t see them because they weren’t there in most of the scenes in the tower but I’m glad we saw them all stacked in the corner
“I already have that one”.
*sad Zeb*
“But this one is nicer!”
😢
I was looking for them but I didn't see them! I wasn't able to pay much attention, so I'll have to look when I rewatch.
Yeah, Ryan messed up. Sabine is living in Ezra's old hideout which is an old radio tower but not the one the message was sent from. You also see Ezra's old painted scout trooper helmet.

That communication tower isn’t the one the Ghost crew sent the transmission from. It’s the tower Ezra is living in at the beginning of Rebels and where Sabine first sees Ahsoka’s ship arrive in the Rebels finale
The helmets were slso Ezra's. He collected them.
Also I think the "sector 7" nod is to one of Admiral Ackbar's lines in Return of the Jedi.
@@lcpunkrawkIt is
Wait, also that's not just any RA-7 at the shipyard. Wouldn't it be AP-5?

I was super bummed when Ryan said he doesn't like Chopper... Because he is awesome.
Chopper, Loth cats and mural are the best part of this so far
I liked the mirror between Kanan cutting his hair in rebels and Sabine doing it in Ahsoka. Awesome parallels
Its almost a 1 to 1 replication of that scene from the kneeling, the helmet on the table even on the meaning of getting ready to face your fate. I am shocked they missed that in this video
It’s like poetry
Awesome,,, really?
Or luke in the crap sequels
The opening sequence felt at the temple felt like such an homage to the beginning of raiders. Absolutely loved it.
I said that too! I was waiting for the staff Ahsoka carried at the end of Rebels to appear and be a full fledged remake for that scene from Raiders.
Yeah except the Ahsoka version was overly long and slow and didn't need to be drawn out so much. Raiders was a much better example of how to do a scene like that.
Exactly how I felt!
There were callbacks to both Fight Element and Raiders in that temple scene. There were callbacks to Prometheus and Dune 84' on the red forest planet.
I love how genre specific the 1st two eps were:
1. Raiders style treasure hunt mystery
2. Police Procedural with Asohka and Hera
I liked seeing Clancy Brown as Rider. It's funny because they designed the cartoon character after him in real life and he voiced the character in Rebels.
Indeed, it’s another case of voice actors reprising their roles in live action, like Bo Katan and soon Thrawn
It really only works out if the voice actor's character happens to be designed like/look enough like their real life likeness, and has acting experience.. like Clancy and Katee. Wish they were able to do it more but the options are limited.
Hoping for starkiller some day..
Don’t forget he was Savage Opress! Oh and Surly Joe !!😎
I didn't remember he was even in Rebels, it had been so long. I found myself wishing he had played Baylon instead, he makes for such a good villain!
All I hear is lex Luthor and mr krabs
Along with Andor, this FEELS like 'Star Wars' more than any other shows & movies of the multiple past decades. Also, sad that Ray Stevenson is gone. I followed him ever since his role in the HBO series 'Rome'. He played that character brilliantly.

Rest in Peace Ray, stunning performances across the board. So excited for ep 3!
It's truly sad he passed away because I think he so far is pretty awesome in this and will only get better.
Yes! RIP Ray. Incredible performance so far, love his character.
Good morning
I loved his acting ever since I saw him in the HBO series 'Rome'. He plays that character to perfection!
just because he died dont detract from the fact he is cucked by morgan, the only male character in the show and he's a rent boy
I’m absolutely loving the show thus far story wise, and as someone who grew up with Clone Wars and Rebels, seeing all these characters from the animated shows in live action was just marvellous to watch. Not to mention that the music is also wonderfully woven into the story as well. Bring on Episode 3.
I think there’s a good chance we see Force Ghost Anakin in this show, reassuring Ahsoka that his turn wasn’t her fault and encouraging her to train Sabine.
Spoiler/Edit: well well well, how the turntables....
I sincerely hope so! They already took away my visit to the Chiss Ascendency, they'd better not touch my Ahsoka-and-Force-Ghost-Anakin closure!
Didn’t Anakin, as Vader, tell Ahsoka that his turn wasn’t her fault already? When they fought and she broke open his helmet to reveal his eye. Maybe I’m remembering wrong. I guess they could do it again for the show though.

@@kajetankesicki8011 oh man, Andor was fantastic. It was amazing in a different way. Bummed out that the writers strike will delay the next season. I have the last jedi more in mind, or rise of Skywalker. I try to take films and shows as they are but the way they treated Luke was disgraceful.
Probably the best thing Disney has done yet. The nitty gritty detail to this show is INSANE. The holograms just look so authentic, the costumes are perfect. THE EYE OF SION?????? A KOTOR REFERENCE BABY LETS GOOOOOOOO
Its Filoni baby!!!! 🎉❤
AGREED!
the predictability of the show shows their contempt of human intelligence >or maybe it shows their intelligence ?< finished episode 1 I bet the apprentice lives just watched episode 2 I was right want to know what happens at end / they sort of win 4 now all enemies not destroyed that leaves the story open so can make more
Nah. Maybe if you grew up with Rebels. But Andor is the best Star Wars for older fans (40+) period.
Yea Andor is still at the top.
I was so worried about how they would hit the rebels characters in live action but they nailed it. Like wow. Music was incredible, action was solid, and the emotions were immaculate
Trials of the Darksaber is one of my favorite episodes from Rebels. When I heard that lietmotif play, I was instantly hit in the feels.
The casting choices of who got to reprise their animated roles and who was recast are still a bit of a head scratcher. Love Rosario and it's great to see Clancy Brown, but why not Ashley as Ahsoka? I also think Vanessa Marshall would have made a great live action Hera.
@@RogueBagelI think Vanessa Marshall would have been the one to pull over instead of Ashley. (I LOVE Ashley, I really really do, but she is so petite and Ahsoka isn’t) Mary Elizabeth Winstead almost seems too young! Her performance (so far) lacked that the maturity and confidence that I think animated Hera was known for.
100% agree!

Fun fact, the scene where Sabine cuts her hair, mirrored how Kanan cuts his ponytail right before he dies.
Duuuude, so glad someone mentioned that. I was thinking the same thing. Even the way she holds the blade like him before cutting the hair!
Then proceeds to get stabbed and survive so BS. filoni is so overrated the show feels like a video game. Just make Andor season 2.
@@Justgurowaaaah waaaah waaaaah. That’s you. You can survive being stabbed in the gut even with a lightsaber you just have a very low chance of surviving.
If Dave is overrated so is Andor and the Rogue One😂😂😂. Go watch the sequels
It’s (also) so Mulan.
Sabine wasn't having a force dream.. she was having a nightmare. It was ezra's exact video message to the crew after he took thrawn on the purgill ride just with Eman Esfandi.
I love Chopper because he is the only droid that can be understood without someone stating what he is saying… especially when he curses! 🤬 😂❤
C3PO (and by extension, all protocol droids)? all of the B-1 battle droids? 2-1B (medical droid from OT)? IG11? K2SO from Rogue 1 and Andor? L337 from Solo? There are a bunch of droids that speak intelligibly (even more intelligibly than Chopper) all throughout Star Wars content.
I think Chopper is the only intelligible astromech, though
These two episodes really felt like a prelude while watching them, which is cool to see they actually were with that scene of Sabine in front of the mural... I think this show is going to pick up steam incredibly fast come the next episode.
Next episode is 30 mins…..
@@shustyrackleford7692 how does the length of an episode matter whatsoever? All clone wars episodes lasted 20 minutes and were packed with action, lore and story. You're logic is irrelevant to the comments point.
I disagree. This felt like a sequel, which I fully understand it is. The problem lies in the studio poorly introducing the characters, like they expect everyone to have watched multiple children's cartoons previous to watching this. Casual fans like myself have no problem with introducing characters from the cartoons, but they need to do it properly.
Ashoka's introduction in the mandalorian is a great example of how to do it right. Her introduction and portrayal in that show is why I started watching this
@@FIxIoN420Absolutely not. Disney does not need to reintroduce well established characters because some refused to familiarize themselves over the last few years. This series wasn’t sprung on anyone. That is an unnecessary waist of screen time.
I don't get this perspective. You can say this about pretty much any new movie or franchise. We are always dropped in the middle of a story with characters we are not familiar with. As long as we learn about their history along the way why does it matter?@@FIxIoN420
i just love chopper. i love his little arms. i love when he commits war crimes. hes just a great little droid, no one else is throwing a tracking device on another ship
And hes so sassy
Me too don't know why he don't like him 😅
His little flex too❤❤
@@LittleLadyLaLa hes so strong
They nailed everything. Chop was my fav moment so far because his mannerisms are exactly like in rebels with the arm movements and everything. Cant wait for next week!
Me too I don't know why he don't like him 😅
Star wars the young Jedi adventure
I also love chopper and named my dog after him in 2015. He feels like a puppy in a way, and I love the name. Don't get how you can hate chopper...
Star trek 4
Star wars the young Jedi adventure
To explain the love for Chopper, he's a much more violent R2D2. War crimes is his business, there is no mercy from the crazy little guy, just like how HK-47 never gave a fuck.
The attention to detail and clear love for the world of Star Wars that Dave has makes the first 2 episodes of Ahsoka miles ahead of the sequel trilogy already
Sion could also be an homage to KOTOR II’s Darth Sion, who was a centuries old sith that stayed alive by hating on his enemies. Maybe a metaphor to how Palpatine’s machinations are everlasting and permanent?
Also sounds like the Eye of Sauron for a LOTR reference 😅
@@Iwillone no. Sion is major star wars charactor from KOTOR. Don't add that crap to this.
Honestly that was my first thought as well. Interestingly he was also missing an eye, and it seemed to be one of the major dark side induced mutations on him. Another interesting point there is you can't beat Darth Sion through combat; the encounter ends with conversation where you convince him to give up his hate and let himself die.
@@cole71 Actually, they’re not wrong… doesn’t make them right, but it is an interesting similarity given the use of “Eye of” and an S name ending in “-on.” Add in the themes of resurrecting evil, evil building power in the shadows, and a generally dreaded villain, and I’d say it’s a tad too close to be a coincidence.
The first two episodes were absolutely amazing! Dave really knows what he is doing!
We need to start a petition to make him president of Lucasfilm. With him at the helm, we would get amazing content all the time.
Finally a Disney plus shows that ain’t boring and cringe

Amazing ?? 😂 what?
@@CrazyNerdSarahno, then it would just be Ashoka all the time, he has nothing else outside of the animated shows. Get the show runners for Andor and I'm on board. I need adult Star Wars as a fan since 80'.
Ezra's painted scout helmet also makes an appearance in the comms tower when sabine enters it for the first time in the show on the right side of the door
Literally came to the comments to find if ANYONE had mentioned it. That was one easter egg that I was hoping ryan would mention but didn’t
Yo I missed that 🥲
Great story so far, compelling characters, beautiful visuals, exhilarating SFX and inspiring music... I could never have dreamed that Star Wars would make such a comeback so suddenly with just these 2 episodes. I am blown away by this show already.

MISSED EASTER EGG:
When Ahsoka returns to Home One, the ID code she gives is T6 1-9-7-4. Thats the month and year that Dave Filoni was born.
Loved how this show started off. I compare tasks like this (catching up half an audience on so much story in a short amount of time) to how it was executed with Fellowship of the Ring. There were easter eggs for hardcore fans, simple enough explanations for new or live-action-only fans, exciting moments, and emotional moments. Not to mention stellar visuals and music. Good job all around.
Love this channel and breakdown!
Yes! I was wondering why they were referencing '74. My best guess was maybe they wrapped up filming the first film then.
Yeah I had to think about it for a bit before I realized!
I like how the show isn't explaining everything upfront. People who haven't watched Rebels or CWs can slowly get brought into it. Also, I'm liking Sabine's limited force abilities mixed in with the Mandalorian heritage and her rebellious personality.
the first episode was basically a "what u missed in rebels" episode
Can we take a moment and appreciate how gorgeous the soundtrack is for this series so far?
So, I didn't love Dawson's take on Ahsoka in Mando, buuuuut, that changed very quickly with this episode. She did some facial expressions that just felt sooooooo much like Ahsoka, I was sold lol. And, I want a loth cat more than ever. 😅
Funny thing is that I feel the opposite way. She felt more feral in Mando and I think that fits her character. In Ahsoka she is fairly tame, wooden and cold. I was kind of disappointed in her but really enjoyed the show otherwise
I haven’t been this excited for Star Wars in a long time
I have a feeling that the hyperspace ring is not only meant to bring Thrawn back, but the Chimera as well.
What/who is Chimera
@@JoshToksPop85Thrawn's personal Imperial Star Destroyer that he went missing in.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t think this show was gonna be as good as it has been so far. For rebels fans like myself this show is absolutely amazing so far, and I beg if you haven’t watched rebels before this please do, it’s so worth it especially with this show tied onto it.
I absolutely love Rebels, but I’m kind of disappointed so far. The pacing is kind of off even if they are trying to set up the story. Also the lightsaber duels specifically with Ahsoka are really slow and boring and just feel poorly choreographed. Hopefully they get better. Not saying I hate the show, but I think it could have been a little better. I’m glad the trailers haven’t given away much
honestly i fully expected this from Dave Filoni
I really like the villains(balyon is great RIP) and special effects and ships are great! I just don't like the transition and how they scrapped all the rebels voice actors and still wishing ahsoka looked better same with the lightsaber duels. The story is there so ill keep watching even if I am upset its not animated etc, just for the story!
Yeah stop listen to Ryan Shit on rebels, it's actually a top tier cartoon, chopper and Ezra are both great characters, and then you can fall In love with them and the rest of the crew. Chop>>>>>Grogu.
@@thefirstguyjaek255If I judge SW Rebel's by the 1st 2 episodes I would of never loved the show. The same goes for Andor, Tales of the Jedi, Mando, & TCW. Watch the series first before u making such a claim.
It is so sad you don’t like Chopper.
Chopper is amaaaazing. By far my favourite droid of all the Star Wars droids. He’s sassy.
@@autobot111 I am hoping that a life size Chopper item will be available soon. How can anyone not like him? He’s hilarious, always dropping f-bombs, and chooses violence every morning
Chopper is a war criminal with one of the highest body counts! I still like him though. . .
Sorry, I love Chopper. He was my favorite character in Rebels. I love how smartass and sarcastic he is.
Me too! Chopper is the OG Murderbot and War Crime Committer. And, the foulest mouth in Star Wars
Never seen rebels, but this character had me laughing and somehow lol I understand him 🤣 it’s muffled English , you actually can understand what he saying, pretty cool
Me too don't know why he don't like him 😅
Same. R2 is a goofball as well, just more, subtle I guess
Precisely. I can't see how anyone could dislike Chopper.
Acting Captain being handed a blaster reminded me of when the President asked for a gun in Secret Invasion.
i felt such a connection to the phantom menace during these episodes it’s good to see they still care about the prequels
Ashoka solving the puzzle to get the wayfinder to thrawn reminded me heavily of some of the puzzles you need to solve in the Jedi fallen order/survivor games. Pretty cool to see that in live action!
Yeah where the theres a ding sound when she spins the puzzle in one direction signifying that its solved they could have made more intricate its to boring.
I wonder if the...Zeppho? Are also the "ancient race from outside the galaxy"
@@meganofsherwood3665that was my thoughts too.
Whilst waiting for these episodes to drop, I avoided any spoilers, and instead spent a day or so binge viewing the list of 'Essential Ashoka' on Disney+. It jogged my memory for some episodes, gave me the chance to see some I had not watched, and gave me an even greater appreciation and love for the character and her evolution. I found the final season of Clone Wars to be particularly powerful, and very moving. I loved these first two episodes, and cannot wait for the next installment.
I like how Disney keeps mentioning the old republic: the eye of sion, the hk droids, the canon version of the star map, Mandalore the great, the rakatan cyber crystal, etc.
It's not Disney that's hinting at the Old Republic. It is Dave he is an old republic lover that's why in clone wars they show Darth Bane and the rule of two.
I love Chopper. He was so awesome in Rebels. I was surprised to hear that you didn’t like him. I also love the actress who plays Sabine. She did a really nice job. And Rosario Dawson did at least one good Ahsoka smirk. I thought the first two episodes were exciting. I didn’t like how washed out the colors were when they were focusing on the master and apprentice working with the witch.
But in general everything looked great.
One thing that wasn’t mentioned, was when Sabine touched the starmap it made the same sound that was made in Rebels pointing out that Ezra was force sensitive. The sound wasn’t as strong as the one made for Ezra but it was still a nice touch
The commander's swing around chair console with its inexplicable toggle switches and dials was such a great throwback detail to the OT
I just finished watching it, I didn't want it to stop, it was great .

So amazing. Every bit is just such a great throwback to Rebels. I love the vibe of the theme song and the whole show. Ahh. So good. Sabine...phew.
Star wars the young Jedi adventure
Sabine was the worst part
Annoying whiny teenager
Star trek 4
Great start, emotional moments.... The actors did a great job impersonating the characters we love. I am really happy for this show.
Idk, I loved rebels, but I felt a severe lack of emotion in all the line delivery. Don’t get me wrong. It was beautiful. But I think they did Hera so dirty, and I cheered out loud when Sabin got stabbed. How can a non force user be a Padawan.
You should have mentioned that in Sabine Diary, which was an official release, she says that having long hair under her helmet makes her sweat. So she hasn’t worn her armor and cutting her hair was a sign that she was ready to pick it up again.
It was obvious without the book.
It was so good!!! It really is 'Rebels' Season 5 but in live action.
Ahsoka is my favorite character. I literally love this so much so far.
*Ahsoka
The white fade in at the beginning of episode 2 is also an homage to the same fade used when Frodo first wakes up after being rescued by Gandalf from Mount Doom in Return of the King
I thought the whole show sort of had a LOTR feel to it.
@@lcbrown2119 Supposedly Dave had been seeing Ahsoka as a kind of Gandalf like figure, As noted by the white cloak she wears in the Season finale of Rebels as opposed to the gray one we normally see her wearing. Obviously, he's retconned that ending a little since she's still wearing gray when she picks up Sabine at the end of these two eps.
@@TheRealAlpha2 Ahsoka the Grey and then after the Worlds between the worlds, Ahsoka the White! She’d be cool to see in that white robe from end of Rebels.
@@lcbrown2119 we may still get it by the end of this season
Ashley Eckstein just doesn't have the gravitas of an older, wiser Ahsoka.
I love it, Ahsoka is going to be an excellent Star Wars Classic. May the force be with you.
the circle patches on sabine and hera's left arms, yellow circle on red background, was the patch for the 7th fleet or open circle fleet. Which was the fleet commanded by obi-wan and anakin. you can see the emblem on the destroyers over coruscant in ep.III.
ashoka was so badass these 2 episodes and i love how it got straight to the point
I see someone got access to the episodes early. I envy you Ryan.
holy shit, Ryan being Ben from Parks and rec is perfect
Chopper is the best
A couple of items missed in this video: the scoop Sabine uses to feed her lots-cat is a 1970’s-era Tupperware cup measure, the biggest being that Baylin and Shin fly around in an Eta-class shuttle and the dark Jedi who fights Ahsoka on Correllia has an inquisitor-style blade and armor reminiscent of the Knights of Ren.
Pretty sure the reason Marrok has an inquisitor style saber is because he's an inquisitor.
@@CloneCommanderCrater1102 which Ryan indeed mentions around 31:48
@@herbalt I know, I was just letting @jeffreycarman2185 know that.
That 'Inquisitor' might be Barris Offee.
@@kylesmith1118 No, Marrok is referred to as 'he'
Im surprised you didnt point out the parallel of Sabine cutting her hair off before beginning her mission to rescue Ezra, in the same fashion as Kanan did in S4 of Rebels before beginning his mission to rescue Hera from Thrawn.
*man tears intensified* during that scene, for that reason!
Star trek 4
@@shaynewheeler9249 wtf does that have to do with anything....
It’s so good to be back! I’ve been so looking forward to new Star Wars breakdowns! Keep up the amazing work!
Also, at 14:05 the logo on Hera’s jacket is actually the emblem/logo of the Ghost and can be seen stamped on the side of the ship in a few places during Rebels.
And at 18:29 , the communications tower Sabine is in was the one Ezra used to live in/the one Kallus broadcast his Fulcrum messages from, not to one they broadcast their rebellion message from, since that one got blown up by the empire.
Sorry to be Um Actually-ing so much haha
Thanks, for mentioning that. I thought it was kinda sweet that Sabine moved into Ezra's old digs.
World Between Worlds allows all of Lucas' SW to become canon within Disney SW. Brilliant. Thank you Dave Filoni.
We can only hope😢
Huh? Lucas's SW isn't canon.....?
I hope you know that the only SW content George made were the movies which are still and will always be canon. The EU was never canon and it wasn’t made by George.
George Lucas also did The Clone Wars, not only the movies. But - please no more World Between Worlds! I personally hope they somehow merge the old Thrawn Trilogy and new Thrawn into a main movie event featuring Luke, Leia, Lando and Han, Ahsoka, Din, Grogu, Chewie and Krsantan. I terribly miss Mara Jade, Talon Karrde and Winter, as also C'baoth, Pellaeon and the Noghri. Hope they include them.
But I think a multiverse or time travel has absolutely nothing to do with Star Wars. So I hope they simply tell a new story in the canon. I don't want the terrible multiverse effect of Marvel in our Star Wars. 😢
@@christopherschmitt1801 Well we have Pallaeon already
I'm impressed you didn't mention when Baylan looks up from the stone circle on Seatos and there is a silhouette of a purgill that passes through the clouds
I'm surprised you didn't mention that Sabine cutting her hair like that mirrors how kanan did it to himself in rebels.
Thanks for the breakdown! And your cut to the Ahsoka title edit was awesome!
The map and how it was unlocked was a reference to Disney’s Treasure Planet in which the protagonist Jim Hawkins unlocked the map in that movie the exact same way.
Love that movie
@@larrydarnellrembertiii6258 Same! It is one of a few movies that I actually think deserve the live action treatment.
IFKR 😆😁
The way people just keep trying to link something to other properties or previous star wars is straight up weird
It isn't on purpose rhey do it cos rheybare creatively bankrupt and have no original ideas 😂
I thought it was a nice touch filling in some of the gap between the disappearance of Ezra and Thrawn up until the final shot of Star Wars Rebels. They established that Ahsoka and Sabine attempted to have a Master and Apprentice type relationship prior to the final shot on Rebels. Both their rebellious nature as learners. Ahsoka has matured as the years went by. I love the idea of their relationship. Ahsoka seems to be in denial that she had the exact same personality as Sabine. I am really looking forward to the trials and tribulations that will test their relationship during the course of the series
Really makes me wonder if Ahsoka ever consulted with Luke about training a padawan, and if he advised her to take on Sabine...or to walk away from her. Come to think of it, isn't it a little odd that Luke never even comes up as a potential aide for solving the map? They could even have said this is where he gets the idea from in Ep 7, lol
Oh I been looking forward to the SC videos for Ahsoka! When it comes to Star Wars I will be watching the breakdown videos and other ones. I was like aw yeah when I realized that was Clancy Brown in the show! What I love about these videos is it made me realize what I noticed but much of what is mentioned I would have no idea if it wasn't for Ryan and the SC team bringing all this together highlighting this great new Star Wars show.
I got 5th Element vibes when Ahsoka swooped that map ball thing
A lot of Jedi games in this show. The path reminded me of the path to Tanalorr that Cal navigated with the force. The ball puzzle at the start sounded like the zeffo temples too. When Morgan says she is a suvivor. It calls back to Merrin 'Survivors, we adapt'
Ahsoka working out the angle of the guy who 'didn't do politics' hints at the training she got from Padme Amidala
The score is phenomenal and the tie-ins to Rebels is just fantastic!
Star wars the young Jedi adventure
It’s scored by the same guy who did rebels
Star wars the young Jedi adventure
When Sabine is trying to read the information from the droid head, the scanner she is holding is actually a retro Space Invaders handheld game that they painted.
Yeah, my cousin had one in the early '80's. I recognised it too.
Excellent breakdown Ryan, pure genius! You're the greatest buddy, the episodes just came out and you have an amazing video broken down every detail going back and forth to the original, unbelievable! Thank you!
There’s a big reference I feel like you’re missing, the probe droid that flies over to Shin as she slowly meanders into frame is very similar to mauls interaction with the probe droid in Phantom Menace
For sure big one
In Ep. 2 when Huyang talks with Sabine, I thought he would say something along the lines of..."but what you lack in Force awarenes, you can compensate with your rather...unique skills. You are Mandalorian...and the only time you're wasting..."
Agreed. I was disappointed he didn't
HOLY COW! That is a great detail linking the new, young senator back to the Rebels episode💛
I did not catch that at all and i just finished rewatching every episode of Rebels last week😅
This was an A+ and it looks like it's gonna get better. This guy can really direct Star Wars
Sabine, while she was laying out her armor, acted in the same manner as Kanan did in “Jedi Night”. She even moved the blade and cut her hair in the same motion.
I Dave Filoni we trust. He has such a passion for Star Wars, a knowledge of what came before, but not making it fan service. He truly cares about this story and the characters
I was pretty happy with how the show has went so far
22:31 that wasn’t his first fight with Darth Vader. He fought against Vader on Lothal at the beginning of Season 2
Kind of a minor detail I noticed: the hologram effect we actually have seen before-the Umbara arc in Clone Wars, specifically on the Umbaran base that Krell & the clones capture.
I noticed some Easter eggs that hasn’t been mentioned that I know of. For example in Episode 1 at 30:15 mark at the foot of the bed is Ezra’s scout trooper helmet he wore in rebels. And Episode 2 at 5:14 Baylon sees Purgill in the clouds. Sooo cool!
I really appreciate your videos, Ryan! They help me understand all the many details of these shows. Keep up the good work!
I thought I saw Ezra's painted up scout trooper helmet in shadows when we first saw Sabine in her "house". Also, the hair cut scene Sabine did was VERY similar to the one that Kanan did at the end of Rebels when he cut off the pony tail in deference to his mullet!
This was a solid start. I was really excited for this show and it seems like it's going to live up to expectations.

Loved both episodes! Loved that they revealed a Night Sister! The only question I have is, Y would a Night Sister be helping the Empire to rise again? The Empire Destroyed her home planet and all her people! I know Dave will explain it all eventually though. 😎
The night sister reveal was really amazing. But, Dooku, General Gervious, and the droid army killed the night sisters before the rise of the Empire. The massacre happened 20 BBY.
She said her ancestors, she didn't say specify she was a Nightsister she may have mixed parentage and she hasn't displayed any form of Magik yet
The CIS massacred her family, not the Empire. If anything the Empire crushed the CIS and i think that's why she joined the Empire.
You did a fine job in wrapping this up together.
Also just have to say love your channel. You’re a true fan and a wealth of knowledge! God bless you sir! Excellent work!
The opening bit with the star destroyers are also an homage to the openings of the movies with a star destroyer. But in the movies we see the underside of the imperial star destroyers but in this one we see the top of the new republic ones mirroring them and showing how they've changed.
Just watching both episodes ahsoka is looking good so far!! Dave knocked it out the part I'm so hype for the rest of this season, and how it ends🔥👏🏽👏🏽
Really great summary of the Easter eggs! I enjoyed the 1st 2 episodes & can't wait for the next surprises!
i am inlove with this show!!! the casting for ahsoka was AMAZING
This is hands down the best place for any Star Wars discussion.
I’m actually glad they’re trying to make the sequels make sense through these new series, just hope they could do a remake of the sequels
I'm glad some people enjoy that, and I don't wanna sound like the Disney haters, but the ST honestly makes so little sense that I don't think it's salvagable, and every attempt to tie in the OT/New Republic to it just drags them down and makes me a little more depressed because it just reminds me all over again that none of this really matters because the ST is just gonna destroy it all anyway...
Star wars anime
What if they change something in the past, and it creates an alternate future, where Luke never leaves the Jedi Order. But there are consequences to changing things in the past.
Basically, we get a new different sequel after Return of the Jedi.
Tantive is pronounced "tan-ta-VEE", as canonized in the Radio Drama and audio books.
General Rieekan is pronouned "ry-KIN" as spoken by Solo and Leia in Empire.
Two tiny pieces of feedback, loved the videos an all of the references!
I hope they continue to dive into this era and take inspiration from Andor (and ignore Kenobi compeltely).
Cheers!
RIP to the late Ray Stevenson. May the force be with him, always
It's amazing to see the characters from Rebels come to life! Great casting, for the first 2 episodes, for all the main characters: Ahsoka; Sabin; Ezra; Ryder; and even Chopper. However, I'm not crazy about the casting decision for Hera.
