I actually like that "Ahsoka the White" is a thing in this series. It captures perfectly what this series accomplishes: nothing but superficial nonsense.
The easiest way to guess what Thrawn is going to do next is to think of the stupidest thing someone could do in that situation and that's what he does. This guy would immediately leave his King open in a Chess game and when he loses he'd just say, "Exactly as I planned it."
Send gunships to obliterate the enemy. Make the gunships land and not fire on the enemy. Order the gunships to retreat without firing once. Replace the anti ground gunships with 2 of our 70 fighters. When the 2 fighters get Deus Ex Machina'd, wait for the enemy to ride on doggies to board your spaceship, that's on the ground for no reason. Make sure to open all blast doors between the enemy and the ship. When the enemy boards, whatever you do, do not search for the enemy. How? This isn't even leaving your king open, it's trying to checkmate your opponent with your own king.
They turned Thrawn into a cat who knocked over a vase then says "I meant to do that!" He supposed to be the biggest threat since Palpatine, but they failed to show his superior intelligence and efficiency.
right? RIGHT? I was so excited for her end in the rebels (don't get me wrong I am not a psycho, I like Ahsoka, but I think dying to Vader was a perfect end to their long relationship, from an artistic point of view it was an excellent idea) but then... yeah... Ezra found an illegal way of saving her
I thought it was funny how Sabine crashed the ship without it and her exploding into millions of pieces and how she walked out all smug as if nothing happened and no one got mad at her for DESTROYING their only mode of transportation. It's like a teenager crashing his parents' car and then walking back home as if they didn't do anything wrong.
Of course, the smug look and posture is a given with Sabine in this show. The city is holding a memorial for your presumably dead friend? Runaway unannounced, and be S M U G about it. Ahsoka comes back after years? Default to S M U G setting. Just destroyed the only transportation to get you back home so you, along with all your friends, don't die? Default to S M U G setting.
So the big "Avengers level" threat that they were trying to prevent from returning into the galaxy is one half-beaten Star Destroyer with a bunch of zombie Storm Troopers who's only trait is being even more useless than regular Storm Troopers, three knockoff Bene Gesserit witches, and the biggest moron in the entire Empire military that makes The First Order look like a competent bunch to lead them all. This entire "threat" would take Luke what, half a day to deal with? Oh yeah, that's right, Filoni hates Luke because he outshines his waifu and original characters, and Kennedy hates Luke because he's a man.
Also, look at what they've done to my boy Thrawn. I guess Filoni's ego didn't allowed them to call Timothy Zahn to work on Thrawn in this show. You know, the guy who created the character, and who loves him so much that he wrote nine novels abouth him, six of which are in the Mouse canon.
Exactly in the novels he was a threat and it was Luke's group that went against thrawn,but nah disney,kk,and filoni all wanna push their stupid agendas and shoe horn ahsoka into everything 💀💀

Sabine doesn't just unlock the Force without any training. She was flat out NOT Force sensitive, which means that no matter how much she tried, no matter how much she trained, she simply should not ever have been able to use the Force, period. Sabine suddenly being able to use the Force simply 'because' breaks so much of the established lore and underlying rules of the entire setting that it makes my brain hurt. In one fell swoop, Sabine basically invalidated the Jedi, the Sith, and all other Force traditions within the entire canon, who for thousands upon thousands of years specifically sought out Force Sensitive individuals precisely because they could use the Force where nobody else could. Palpatine actively sought out Force Sensitive younglings precisely because of their Force sensitivity. The Jedi sought them out for that reason. But now with Sabine, she outright introduced the Oprah meme "You get to be a Jedi! You get to be a Jedi!! Everybody gets to be a Jedi!!!" Being a Force user is now no longer special. It's no longer unique. It no longer requires someone to be born with the affinity, setting them apart from the vast majority. And why? Because people like Filoni are terrified of facing the reality that, in real life, people aren't equal. We're not all the same, we're not all equal. Some people... are just simply better than others. This is the reality. Some people are naturally talented, for whatever reason, and others are not. It may make people uncomfortable, but it is the true nature of the world. By making being Force Sensitive something literally anybody can do... the Force is now officially dead as a concept. It's no longer special, it's no longer interesting or unique. It's just a thing that literally anybody can do with just a bare minimum of training, making the majority of the Galaxy stupid for not being able to figure out that "Straining your face like you're taking a sh*t is the secret to telekinesis". Ahsoka is officially the last nail in the Star Wars coffin. Sabine as a character has completely invalidated one of the fundamental aspects of the setting, the Magic System, and rendered it utterly meaningless. Sabine, garbage character from day one, is now the Death Knell for the whole setting, and she should go down in Star Wars history as the character who destroyed the brand in it's entirety.
I mean Rey already broke the part where you don't need training to be a master in the force lol , but yes Sabine found out how to become force sensitive as a non force sensitive person , Gideon had hundreds of scientist and doctors, force sensitive samples, likely some kind of dark sorcery going on for years to have force sensitive clones but Sabine , Sabine says 'I am all the Jedi' and she is force sensitive from that point , Rey as the chosen one obviously have the power to give the force to anybody even if they are not force sensitive, honestly amazing writing there
true, the fact is strengthen by huyang himself, he said that sabine is the worst choices as padawan. they should let sabine stay as mandalorian fighter instead become a typical woke sjw character.
Well in Disney Star Wars, being run through with a lightsaber doesn't kill you either , so anything is possible. Anyway as we all know STAR WARS is dead. Nearly the whole industry has been taken over by joyless unimaginative woke activists who piggy back on other people's idea's to spew their nonsense. it's probably time to look elsewhere for our entertainment.
I agree man, i didnt even watch rebels but when i saw sabine was somehow force sensitive i knew that was wrong. Also what bothered me the most was how the ending played out, why the hell are sabine and ahsoka so contempt after everything? Why are they smiling? They did exactly everything possible wrong by not destroying the map and letting thrawn return it actually boggles my mind. The only thing “positive” i see out of this is that sabine and DISNEY ahsoka are stranded out in another universe so we dont have to see them again lol.
modern disney (and a lot of Hollywood too) character development basically boils down to either neurotic children with zero control on their emotions, carboard cutouts of characters with no emotions whatsoever pretending to be "stoic", or bargain bin comic book tier superheroes/villains with less dimension to them than an empty sticky note.
Sabine whole characters identity was Mandalorian hardened fighter, tech wizard, reckless not in a stupid way, and maybe a young girl trying to find Ezra for love. They just flipped a switch and turned her into an asexually strong woman Jedi. Like we needed another one of those…
And it is complete nonsense as Sabine was trained by Bendu and he as well as Kanan would have recognised if she is really force sensitive. The other thing is, Asoka refused to train Grogu because of his age, but trains Sabine? This is all completely senseless and destroys Sabines story arc from rebels.
By the way, her giving Baylan the map is character assassination. She once made a deal with Empire, designed a weapon for them, which they used on her people and her family rejected her. She would never make the same mistake again, especially if there's no guarantee Ezra is alive.
@@Сайтамен In order for this to be in the show script, there would need to be a real consistency between Ahsoka & Rebels, and all we got was cameo festival. That hurts more when you hated Rebels at the beginning for animation style, but it grew for you with story writing, that now got totally retconned.
I remember when lightsabers were more like ritual weapons which jedis only used against each other as a gentleman's rule, and deflecting a few laser blasts from a distance made them even more cool. Now lightsabers are like a frontline assault weapons rendering its user fully immune to projectiles as If they've unlocked a certain perk. It's video game logic
Lightsabers in the Jedi outcast games are more deadly than Disney Sab- oh wait I forgot they are plot sabers they follow the crappy plot of a show or movie.
I watched a Star Wars fan-made short film last year titled '' Misano '' or kind of Japanese name, it shows a female Jedi knight who was in hiding, sitting on the floor of a forest assembling her lightsaber and also having a flashback to when she was padawan in training. she was recklessly and over stylizing brandishing her lightsaber and her master rebuked her, sternly advising her that it is a dangerous, sacred/powerful weapon and extension of the Force that needs serious discipline, care and will to handled, unfortunately, she didn't listen. she sneaks out later in the night when her master was asleep to a mountain cave to test her skills against some animals there, only for her to accidentally burnt her eyes/ blinded herself when defending against some batlike creatures, her scream and cries woke up her master who rushed to her aid. back to the present, she was completely blind but now well skilled and powerful in the Force, taking on some Sith inquisitors hunting her. what we have right now in Disney, is people treating the Force/lightsaber as toys and casual stuff to be thrown around. that fan made film had a better understanding of the concept than Disney.
I literally think Filoni "writes" by playing with little action figures like Lord Helmet in Spaceballs, saying lines in their voices, making sound effect noises, etc. The way Balen and Shin just disappeared in the last episode is like he put those 2 dolls in the corner cuz he wasn't playing with them at the moment, but then realized he needed to show something about them at the end. It feels like if he isn't currently playing with some person place or thing, it is just in a suspended animation doing nothing until the next time he decides to play with it.
I like how the Stormtrooper didn't even bother to break Sabine's hands from using her fake force and still let her to stab him what a joke Filoni is toxic simp😆 General Grievous did that to Obi Van
Dude, Grievous was disrespected enough by Filoni himself in the "Clone Wars', where he was turned into pathetic saturday morning cartoon villain who gets his ass handed to him by gungans of all people. You don't have to dig his grave by spelling his name like that.
How long has Ezra lived on that planet in the wilderness? But yeah Sabine is probably more experienced at riding the local wildlife she should take the reins with Ezra in the back
It’s safe to assume most of Disney writers have brain worms. These shows just get stupider by the episode. Every new show the cycle just begins, episode after episode of pointless stupid plots that go nowhere.
5:41 That right there my favorite scene. The pilot of the Thai Fighter does not perform evasive maneuvers but instead takes his hands off the controls so he can shield his face with his arms, a more than useless gesture against a collision with a larger craft. This is very symbolic for the amount of understanding the writers have how anything in the real world works. Yes, you might do this as a reflex, but only if you were NOT in control of the vehicle, and if you are, believe me: You're going to try your best to swerve out of the way of oncoming traffic. I have been there. 😁
But how was he supposed to evade ALL that air traffic blocking him in?😂 this is why Thrawn didn't send 10 fighters, he wanted to make sure they couldn't beat his Tie fighter bowling score.
Apparently turbo lasers from a capital ship pack as much punch as a handheld blaster now. While I haven't watched the show; only clips from reviews, it seems a lot of the nonsense could've been reduced if Sabine's Force sensitivity plot was removed entirely... and the characters acted more like their animated versions. There's less stakes and suspense than there was in Rebels, and with worse acting!
The Ahsoka show has made me realize that Ahsoka as a character breaks the Prequels, OT and even the Sequels, because why does Anakin have an apprentice when he's not even a Jedi Master, and where the *_fuck_* has she been for the last 30 years?
Because Ashoka was supposed to die during Order 66, or even earlier, to further spyral Anakin's downfall into the Dark Side of the Force. According to Lucas who co-created her, at least. But Filoni would rather die that allow anything to happen with his waifu. Heck, Ahsoka already had a perfect send-off to her character in Season 2 of "Rebels", with her dying in duel with Vader. But no, Filoni literaly went full Barry Allen on Star Wars space and time just to save her, and now we have a character that serves no purpose, wasn't participating in the fall of the Empire, and is breaking the entire OT narrative since Yoda said to Luke "Once I'm gone, you'll be the last jedi".
@@MariaIsabellaZNN Disney confirmed that Ahsoka is still alive in "Rise of Miss Palpatine". Probably because they were too afraid to piss off Filoni, I mean, her fans.
The worst part about having the Dathomir witches in this show is that its a wet dream for Dave Filoni. Unlike the force, which has a well built system around it (although that doesn't always stop Disney from doing whatever they want sometimes,) Dathomir magic is still a very underused and underdeveloped system, which means Filoni can just do whatever the fuck he wants with it and when people ask questions, he can just go "It'S WiTcH MaGiC"
@@yleyatarn I love her to bits, fought tooth and nail to help me get where I am, not to spill the beans but I'm autistic you see, so she's put in a lot of effort to support me, forever grateful.

I haven't seen Rebels but I know Thrawn is a general that is the smartest war leader in the galaxy basically. In Ahsoka they use his reputation from Rebels to make him look outsmarted and dumb only to make Ahsoka, Sabine and every other female character involved look great and smart without doing anything of importance themselves. And that is the modern feminist recipe for getting ahead in life to bring others or men down to look good without doing anything of importance or really achieve anything. But what I really wonder is do they think they are subtle with their message and viewers don't see through their agenda?
Thrawn is literally that meme where a dude goes cycling and he jams a stick into the wheel then falls down. In Thrawns case after falling down he'd say "just as I have planned"
Well spoken analysis. Soon the shills will start hyping up the next Disney Star Wars project. 😔Whomever writes these stories should never graduate past middle school. I wrote better stories with crayons as a twelve year old.
I was making up Star Wars RPG characters at about the same age. Even then I knew that making a Mandalorian Jedi would be lame. Filoni hasn't figured that out yet.
@@BetaRayBill32 Yeah, it completely negates the WAR between both factions. Why would a Mandalorian become a Jedi? That's like an Ottoman Janissary fighting alongside a British soldier.
@gimmeyourrights8292 Jannisary and a British soldier actually makes more sense because, you know, it happened, multiple times, like when the British helped the Ottomans kick Napoleon out of the Middle East in 1800.
Thrawn is actually my favourite character from rebels, because his intelligence meant he was always a big threat, but they completely massacred him here. Lore accurate Thrawn would have won here without breaking a sweat.
"There should be a point to movies. Sure, you're giving people a diversion from the cold world for a bit, but at the same time, you pass on some facts and rules and maybe a little bit of wisdom." George Lucas
You know a good idea would be that the reason thrawn never got off the planet would've been if Ezra either solo or with natives have been waging guerrilla warfare on thrawn destroying any chance of him escaping until he managed to scrounge up a long range satellite and sent a distress signal to the remaining imperial forces.
How the f**k has Filoni been around SW and Lucasfilm for so long and not get the point of TIE fighters ? They sacrifice shields and hyperdrive for agility and firepower, why the hell would a TIE fighter pilot take his hands off the controls to cover his face at the very slow approach of the larger ship, his craft could dance rings around that thing.
I have read fanfictions which were slow pace that was better than this show. Nothing have been accomplished. If you wanna waste your time, watch this show.
Well, I Thrawn and a star destroyer, a battalion of tie-fighters, and a legion of stormtroopers can't stop, let alone hit, two riding mounts on the ground - well, then I think the galaxy will just fine.
Just like your Willow reviews and ones of Witcher, I must say that these are very spot on. Not to mention the Womandalorian show as well, keep up the good work Reaper. You do the gods work by showing stupidity upon such writers.
At 8 years old back in 2008 I knew Filoni was a professional nobody… in 2019 those suspicions were affirmed when watching the mandalorian… in clone wars season 7 they were 100% confirmed I don’t understand how he gets work
None of the characters here match their animated counterparts, Ahsoka’s being the most divergent. Ahsoka in the cartoons had charisma, warmth, and had a nice perfect send off in Rebels when she died in her duel with Vader, and instead Filoni retconned all that effectively breaking all canon in the Original Trilogy.
13:37 I think its canon that Leia hates him so that's probably why he doesn't visit her but you do make a good a point about his son, the one person who believed he was good and looked into his eyes as he died but no screw him because he's a man
Episode 8 was a let down. Ezra and Sabine's reunion felt off not genuine. Sabine being able to use the force to put ezra in the star destroyer moments after unlocking the force made no sense
I’d like to share a theory (more of a coping mechanism honestly) that helps me reconcile all the insane things that have happened with Star Wars since Disney took over. This show, the other DF Mando-verse shows, and the sequel trilogy are all part of a pocket Star Wars universe created when Ezra pulled Ahsoka out of her final battle with Darth Vader in the WBW a la Donnie Darko. For it to properly correct itself, Ahsoka must return to her place in the timeline and die in her duel with Vader like she was supposed to. The longer she stays in it, the crazier everything gets. Since she doesn’t understand that and can’t/won’t return to her place in the timeline, this unstable universe will eventually collapse on itself. The original EU is the real Star Wars universe that happens when Ahsoka dies when and how she was meant to.
This is a better "story" or an explanation than anything that Filoni created in these past years. And it would actually make sense, considering how big of a pile of shit the current Star Wars is.
I remember how much useless padding there used to be in shows with 20+ episodes, too. It does some serious damage, having more episodes than you need. Roswell, for instance, has maybe 7-8 episodes of actual story in its first season.
Gotta be honest Reaper, i was one of the seals clapping when Anakin showed up. But i can’t deny all these plot inconsistencies you pointed out. Cheers to you, mate.

modern disney (and a lot of Hollywood too) character development basically boils down to either neurotic children with zero control on their emotions, carboard cutouts of characters with no emotions whatsoever pretending to be "stoic", or bargain bin comic book tier superheroes/villains with less dimension to them than an empty sticky note.
And this all is shoved down our throats as positive traits.
@@Toraryukopeople are addicted to idolatry. They can’t stop, even if it’s poop 💩
Name the last piece of media you saw that has ANY good character development.
Sabine whole characters identity was Mandalorian hardened fighter, tech wizard, reckless not in a stupid way, and maybe a young girl trying to find Ezra for love. They just flipped a switch and turned her into an asexually strong woman Jedi. Like we needed another one of those…
Honestly, her ability to use the force just undermines her value as a mandalorian battle chick. We already have Ahsoka for the battle hardened Jedi
And it is complete nonsense as Sabine was trained by Bendu and he as well as Kanan would have recognised if she is really force sensitive. The other thing is, Asoka refused to train Grogu because of his age, but trains Sabine? This is all completely senseless and destroys Sabines story arc from rebels.
By the way, her giving Baylan the map is character assassination. She once made a deal with Empire, designed a weapon for them, which they used on her people and her family rejected her. She would never make the same mistake again, especially if there's no guarantee Ezra is alive.
She was already a Mary Sue in Rebels, but at least she was likeable back then
@@Сайтамен In order for this to be in the show script, there would need to be a real consistency between Ahsoka & Rebels, and all we got was cameo festival.
That hurts more when you hated Rebels at the beginning for animation style, but it grew for you with story writing, that now got totally retconned.
I remember when lightsabers were more like ritual weapons which jedis only used against each other as a gentleman's rule, and deflecting a few laser blasts from a distance made them even more cool.
Now lightsabers are like a frontline assault weapons rendering its user fully immune to projectiles as If they've unlocked a certain perk. It's video game logic
Great points. Also, bolt deflection was a skill honed through years of the force, not just from picking up a random saber aka Sabine.
Lightsabers in the Jedi outcast games are more deadly than Disney Sab- oh wait I forgot they are plot sabers they follow the crappy plot of a show or movie.
Did you see that Sabine gun blocked laser shot with her gun muzzle? Total bs!
I watched a Star Wars fan-made short film last year titled '' Misano '' or kind of Japanese name, it shows a female Jedi knight who was in hiding, sitting on the floor of a forest assembling her lightsaber and also having a flashback to when she was padawan in training. she was recklessly and over stylizing brandishing her lightsaber and her master rebuked her, sternly advising her that it is a dangerous, sacred/powerful weapon and extension of the Force that needs serious discipline, care and will to handled, unfortunately, she didn't listen. she sneaks out later in the night when her master was asleep to a mountain cave to test her skills against some animals there, only for her to accidentally burnt her eyes/ blinded herself when defending against some batlike creatures, her scream and cries woke up her master who rushed to her aid. back to the present, she was completely blind but now well skilled and powerful in the Force, taking on some Sith inquisitors hunting her.
what we have right now in Disney, is people treating the Force/lightsaber as toys and casual stuff to be thrown around. that fan made film had a better understanding of the concept than Disney.
Even my super fan friend game up on this show. He loved the cartoons back in the day
I literally think Filoni "writes" by playing with little action figures like Lord Helmet in Spaceballs, saying lines in their voices, making sound effect noises, etc. The way Balen and Shin just disappeared in the last episode is like he put those 2 dolls in the corner cuz he wasn't playing with them at the moment, but then realized he needed to show something about them at the end. It feels like if he isn't currently playing with some person place or thing, it is just in a suspended animation doing nothing until the next time he decides to play with it.
Imagine going as far as another galaxy, just to friendzone someone.
I like how the Stormtrooper didn't even bother to break Sabine's hands from using her fake force and still let her to stab him what a joke Filoni is toxic simp😆 General Grievous did that to Obi Van
Dude, Grievous was disrespected enough by Filoni himself in the "Clone Wars', where he was turned into pathetic saturday morning cartoon villain who gets his ass handed to him by gungans of all people. You don't have to dig his grave by spelling his name like that.
Yep, I will never get over how heavily Filoni nerfed Grievous. Not even just nerfed but made him into a complete fucking fool @@OverLorD768
George Lucas wasn't happy with the way Grievous was depicted in the 2003 clone wars show
@@ubermorph1000 it’s not that he hated it he felt that Grevoise was too strong/powerful and would detract away from the actual Sith and Darthvader
@@Gdsryroxbut he’s supposed to be a sith? goes to show how bright george lucas really is😂
Thrawn is the embodiment of Bob Iger or Disney altogether as they also do everything not to win despite having the means for it.
thrawn in lore: a terrifyingly brilliant commander and general who would have carried the empire to success
thrawn in matriarchy: re*arded
How long has Ezra lived on that planet in the wilderness? But yeah Sabine is probably more experienced at riding the local wildlife she should take the reins with Ezra in the back
Seriously what dude would ride bitch unless he was severely injured
Ezra is just one complete useless character.
Not only that but Ezra's literal power that makes him special is talking/bonding with animals...
@@DoubleClefFmAnd the actor is also not a good cast , just because he looks like Ezra he can't act like Ezra
@@davidkosiba624he doesn’t look like Ezra just because he also has a massive nose.
The ending would be somewhat satisfying if Ahsoka and Sabine are permanently stuck in the other galaxy and we never see them again.
It’s safe to assume most of Disney writers have brain worms. These shows just get stupider by the episode. Every new show the cycle just begins, episode after episode of pointless stupid plots that go nowhere.
Brain worms implies they have brains.
Inquisitor Eisenhorn would like a word with you...
Wasn't Filoni around before Disney?
5:41 That right there my favorite scene.
The pilot of the Thai Fighter does not perform evasive maneuvers but instead takes his hands off the controls so he can shield his face with his arms, a more than useless gesture against a collision with a larger craft.
This is very symbolic for the amount of understanding the writers have how anything in the real world works.
Yes, you might do this as a reflex, but only if you were NOT in control of the vehicle, and if you are, believe me: You're going to try your best to swerve out of the way of oncoming traffic. I have been there. 😁
"Thai" fighter. Like from 'Blue Harvest.' 🤣👍
THAI FIGHTER 😂
THAI fighter. Good one XD
Thai fighter Ah yes my favorite.
But how was he supposed to evade ALL that air traffic blocking him in?😂 this is why Thrawn didn't send 10 fighters, he wanted to make sure they couldn't beat his Tie fighter bowling score.
Apparently turbo lasers from a capital ship pack as much punch as a handheld blaster now. While I haven't watched the show; only clips from reviews, it seems a lot of the nonsense could've been reduced if Sabine's Force sensitivity plot was removed entirely... and the characters acted more like their animated versions. There's less stakes and suspense than there was in Rebels, and with worse acting!
The Ahsoka show has made me realize that Ahsoka as a character breaks the Prequels, OT and even the Sequels, because why does Anakin have an apprentice when he's not even a Jedi Master, and where the *_fuck_* has she been for the last 30 years?
Doesn't she force talk to Ray Ray Palpatine in the last movie, implying she's dead? Or was that a different character.
Because Ashoka was supposed to die during Order 66, or even earlier, to further spyral Anakin's downfall into the Dark Side of the Force. According to Lucas who co-created her, at least. But Filoni would rather die that allow anything to happen with his waifu. Heck, Ahsoka already had a perfect send-off to her character in Season 2 of "Rebels", with her dying in duel with Vader. But no, Filoni literaly went full Barry Allen on Star Wars space and time just to save her, and now we have a character that serves no purpose, wasn't participating in the fall of the Empire, and is breaking the entire OT narrative since Yoda said to Luke "Once I'm gone, you'll be the last jedi".
@@OverLorD768 A man being the last Jedi? LMAO! Not under Disney!
@@MariaIsabellaZNN Disney confirmed that Ahsoka is still alive in "Rise of Miss Palpatine". Probably because they were too afraid to piss off Filoni, I mean, her fans.
Good question, for another time.
A wise man once said "if you think this has a happy ending, you haven’t been paying attention."
Never change dude. Good shit.
the scouse accent only adds to the on point comments XD
the way he insults the shows hes reviewing and his accent never fails to make me laugh😂😂
The worst part about having the Dathomir witches in this show is that its a wet dream for Dave Filoni. Unlike the force, which has a well built system around it (although that doesn't always stop Disney from doing whatever they want sometimes,) Dathomir magic is still a very underused and underdeveloped system, which means Filoni can just do whatever the fuck he wants with it and when people ask questions, he can just go "It'S WiTcH MaGiC"
“He’s even worse than a broken clock because at least that gets something right twice a day” OOF
FINALLY! Me and my mum love watching you, you're funny as fuck.
You must have a great mother 😮

I was anticipating your finale review of Ahsoka, more than the entire series.
When human beings have no reason to make an effort? Then they won't make an effort. They'll just lap up the millions and apply the least effort possible... -- WITH THIS DESCRIPTION I DEFINE ALL OF HOLLYWOOD --
If a season 2 of Ashoka means a "season 2" of Reaper and Disparu reviewing it, heck, I'm all for it!
I haven't seen Rebels but I know Thrawn is a general that is the smartest war leader in the galaxy basically. In Ahsoka they use his reputation from Rebels to make him look outsmarted and dumb only to make Ahsoka, Sabine and every other female character involved look great and smart without doing anything of importance themselves.
And that is the modern feminist recipe for getting ahead in life to bring others or men down to look good without doing anything of importance or really achieve anything.
But what I really wonder is do they think they are subtle with their message and viewers don't see through their agenda?
They have never been subtle ever since they thought Rey's abuse of Finn was empowering.
@@pantheman2842 True.
Everybody knew... They used everything to catch fans' attention (Anakin, Thrawn, Ezra), but they have no thoughts on their own...
Your reviews save me so much time, I appreciate it
I've been dying to hear how you'd tear this one up. Must have taken a while to was thru so much dogshit.
Thrawn is literally that meme where a dude goes cycling and he jams a stick into the wheel then falls down. In Thrawns case after falling down he'd say "just as I have planned"
love you reaper always makes me giggle
Well spoken analysis. Soon the shills will start hyping up the next Disney Star Wars project. 😔Whomever writes these stories should never graduate past middle school. I wrote better stories with crayons as a twelve year old.
I was making up Star Wars RPG characters at about the same age. Even then I knew that making a Mandalorian Jedi would be lame. Filoni hasn't figured that out yet.
@@BetaRayBill32 Yeah, it completely negates the WAR between both factions. Why would a Mandalorian become a Jedi? That's like an Ottoman Janissary fighting alongside a British soldier.
@gimmeyourrights8292 Jannisary and a British soldier actually makes more sense because, you know, it happened, multiple times, like when the British helped the Ottomans kick Napoleon out of the Middle East in 1800.
@@konstantinosnikolakakis8125 Fine a Janissary and a French soldier?
Thrawn is actually my favourite character from rebels, because his intelligence meant he was always a big threat, but they completely massacred him here. Lore accurate Thrawn would have won here without breaking a sweat.
'These clapping seals...' Would be a good band name.
Love your work. Keep it up.
I can't stop watching Sabine's fight coreography, it's somehow more embarrassing than Ahsoka's attempts to bring a plane into land at the airport
Sabines cat is now dead.
I mean you aren't wrong tho
Since a cat can live without 4 days without water

I died at 5:41. The pilots see a ship heading straight for them and instead of pulling up or right they try to block their face with their hands XD
Yeeesss I’ve bin waiting for this to finally come out
you’re friggin hilarious! and spot on, as always
You know a good idea would be that the reason thrawn never got off the planet would've been if Ezra either solo or with natives have been waging guerrilla warfare on thrawn destroying any chance of him escaping until he managed to scrounge up a long range satellite and sent a distress signal to the remaining imperial forces.

How the f**k has Filoni been around SW and Lucasfilm for so long and not get the point of TIE fighters ? They sacrifice shields and hyperdrive for agility and firepower, why the hell would a TIE fighter pilot take his hands off the controls to cover his face at the very slow approach of the larger ship, his craft could dance rings around that thing.
Filoni: *Jacks off furiously* Oh yeah, you make those space ships go 'BOOM!'
@Strider449 that sounds atrocious, I'm glad that show passed me by. Thrawn deserved better than Filoni.
This man brings a wide smile to my big mouth😇
I have read fanfictions which were slow pace that was better than this show. Nothing have been accomplished. If you wanna waste your time, watch this show.
Lightsabers have been nurtured almost as badly as every male character and can no longer cut through limbs or anything really effectively
Well, I Thrawn and a star destroyer, a battalion of tie-fighters, and a legion of stormtroopers can't stop, let alone hit, two riding mounts on the ground - well, then I think the galaxy will just fine.
i think the low key worse part of all of these shows is that all the crazy alien races just look like b-list actors in face paint
Just like your Willow reviews and ones of Witcher, I must say that these are very spot on. Not to mention the Womandalorian show as well, keep up the good work Reaper. You do the gods work by showing stupidity upon such writers.
They literally ripped of treasures planet...this ball-map thing and even the freaking space whales...this is so sad 😅
At 8 years old back in 2008 I knew Filoni was a professional nobody… in 2019 those suspicions were affirmed when watching the mandalorian… in clone wars season 7 they were 100% confirmed I don’t understand how he gets work
Yeah, because he’s not all that of a big shot as other people helped out and they never get the credit they deserved.
I don't even care anymore. Thanks, Kathy!
Ahsoka has a terrible everything!
06:12
I love the way he makes sure he grabs her in the most platonic and brotherly way.
Been refreshing all day for this 🤣
Dude you gotta do Obiwan!!!!
YES!
You got EFAP and their reactions to the series, pretty good.
I mean, if there's one thing you're not wrong about - it's that Sabine is a kheunt.
I was more excited for this review than the episode itself. And more satisfied with the end result
I still can't get over how they massacred my boy, Ezra😢
"they just let themselves be taken out, probably because they no longer want to exist in the Star Wars universe..." comedy gold
None of the characters here match their animated counterparts, Ahsoka’s being the most divergent. Ahsoka in the cartoons had charisma, warmth, and had a nice perfect send off in Rebels when she died in her duel with Vader, and instead Filoni retconned all that effectively breaking all canon in the Original Trilogy.
I need to see a compilation of how many arm crosses happen in Ahsoka
AI on a Spectrum 48K would bang out a better script
I have been waiting for this. Thank you "Reaper" for being very good at your job. Love the show.
13:37 I think its canon that Leia hates him so that's probably why he doesn't visit her but you do make a good a point about his son, the one person who believed he was good and looked into his eyes as he died but no screw him because he's a man
A gentleman from Liverpool ripping all this shite apart is so much more entertainment than anything Disney brought out in years. Great channel
I really used to love Rosario Dawson in anything she was in. I see this and all I can think is, "What the actual fuck?!"
"I will always snatch defeat from the jaws of victory" - admiral Thrawn
Episode 8 was a let down. Ezra and Sabine's reunion felt off not genuine.
Sabine being able to use the force to put ezra in the star destroyer moments after unlocking the force made no sense
Don't forget the nightcap, that the episode was titled, "The Jedi, The Witch, and the Warlord".
These writers wouldent recognise a selfless act...even if I took a bullet for them.... so I wouldent bother....🇬🇧🏴
I liked the part where Po said “Somehow, Sabine became a master force user”
I’d like to share a theory (more of a coping mechanism honestly) that helps me reconcile all the insane things that have happened with Star Wars since Disney took over. This show, the other DF Mando-verse shows, and the sequel trilogy are all part of a pocket Star Wars universe created when Ezra pulled Ahsoka out of her final battle with Darth Vader in the WBW a la Donnie Darko. For it to properly correct itself, Ahsoka must return to her place in the timeline and die in her duel with Vader like she was supposed to. The longer she stays in it, the crazier everything gets. Since she doesn’t understand that and can’t/won’t return to her place in the timeline, this unstable universe will eventually collapse on itself. The original EU is the real Star Wars universe that happens when Ahsoka dies when and how she was meant to.
Damn dude, new Star Wars is so bad it drove you mad
This is a better "story" or an explanation than anything that Filoni created in these past years. And it would actually make sense, considering how big of a pile of shit the current Star Wars is.
Remember when a season of a show was 24 episodes?
I remember how much useless padding there used to be in shows with 20+ episodes, too. It does some serious damage, having more episodes than you need. Roswell, for instance, has maybe 7-8 episodes of actual story in its first season.
Cannot imagine how much slower 24 episode of this slop would be. Filoni and crew did not even write enough material for 8.
Been waiting for this 🍿
Gotta be honest Reaper, i was one of the seals clapping when Anakin showed up. But i can’t deny all these plot inconsistencies you pointed out. Cheers to you, mate.
Thank fuck. Cheers Reaper.
Star Wars is currently famous for 2 things... Seals and Shills
Your videos make me so happy 😀
I so look forward to your candid and hilarious recaps of terrible movies and TV.
