"the part I did not see coming was when Maul blinded kanan"
I "See" what you did there...
Guess Kanan didn’t “see” that comin
beat me to it , guess Kanan didn't see that one coming
Well damn
Kill me
Mad hatter gamer
Yeah but kanan didn't
Fair comment. I think much of the hate for Rebels was due to a weak first season, coupled with anger at The Clone Wars’ cancellation.
But from Season 2 onwards it hits its stride, and really dovetails nicely between TCW and Rogue One. Seeing a completion to Maul’s story and Grand Admiral Thrawn becoming canon was the icing on the cake. Real nice.
This is why Dave Filoni is really the only choice for Lucasfilm.
It's more that It ruined thrawn by turning him into skeletor since he actually did jakeshit and only talked, didn't kill off any main characters besides the mentor character who always dies, only a few battles were good and the rest were fucking boring since none of the mc's were in any danger at all since it was a kiddie that didn't want to be kiddie since it adds characters that only older fans would know, It's turns death troopers into useless jokes that get out smarted by teenagers like any other storm trooper, the helicopter lightsabers, vader even leaves the show for no reason at all when he should still be after the rebels, and those two jedi.
I'd like to point out that there was never any real growth at the hands of our main characters. Their ridiculous plot armor coupled with shoehorned events like Kanan's death and Kallus's turn just kinda had these characters age and not really grow as people.
Not to mention any sort of real nuance when it comes to war and a literal galaxy of beings, they never really lost anything in any sort of meaningful way. Plus time jumps...really? If that's a Fallon idea than I at least am surprised at such a concept. I get it was for kids but jeez, haven't shows like the Last Airbender shown that if you trust in your audience's ability to perceive nuance, their age doesn't matter.
I'm gonna be honest, I didn't make it past season 2, I just didn't like it.
The Dreaded Animation and you are right
Its not a show for everyone
Thrawn and Ezra are both alive. Dave Feloni confirmed it. It is likely that he is in the Unknown Regions, which is where he was in the Legends continuity when we first met him.
*Skeletor and ezra since thrawn accomplished jack shit in this series.
I recon. They are going to make a sequel to revels
Yeah, I want to see more of Thrawn and Ashoka, and I hope Ezra and Sabine can improve
@@eyesack2007 - I think season 2 of The Mandalorian is gonna have them. I mean seriously, who else would you trust to train yoda and is travelling with another mandalorian?
God I hope we see them so much!!!
Where's the link?
What is this? Not pure blind hatred for Rebels???!!!!
An actual level headed critique??!??!
Impossible!!!!
There's hope lol
only thing that would be more insane is non blind hate for TLJ
An actual level headed critique?
It's treason then...
Scott thebassplayer it is possible for it to happen, the impossible is no pure blind hatred and an actual level headed critique for TFA, TLJ and Solo
Whats there to critique? its basically a worse clone wars.
The finale of S2 was so good because it had characters from across the Star Wars universe, there was Kanan and Ezra from Rebels, Ahsoka from TCW, Vader from the originals, and Maul from the prequels
Nathan Creek lol just take away the helicopter sabers and it would be great.
@@NCC1371 and ezra
Nathan Creek technically Vader is in TCW being anakin using the dark side A LOT and maul was always in TCW
Billy and 2nd airborne EXACTLY
The moment where ashoka and anakin fought and ashoka realised Vader was Anakin was very intense and emotional until Ezra fucks it all by just randomly saying
"I NeEd a LOt MoRe TrAiNiNg"
I was actually devastated when Kanan died. I hadn’t realized how much I had really grown to love the character. I even just saw those episodes for the first time last night so it’s still a really fresh reaction. I was expecting as well based upon the rest of the episode, but when it happened it hit me really hard.
Your Soulsmate same just finished that episode today. Kanan was my favorite character along with Sabine.
Me to its so sad and for me I really am so sad because I read the Comics of Kanan's Backstory
Bruh I fin8shed the series about a week ago and yet kanaan's death still seems a blow to me
Its even MORE devastating when you see what he's been through during the final days of TCW in The Batch Bad.
R.I.P. Caleb Dume/Kanan Jarrus
I love how kanan and hera's relationship is treated like a real relationship
You don't see it that much in media.
So true
Especially since the two clearly have known each other for a while.
Lowkey the best romance in star wars.
Here’s my question though… when did he get her pregnant if they only just said they loved each other right before he got vaporized in a giant explosion? 🤨
The way it’s portrayed it’s like they just decided to finally give in and start going down that road right before he died.
So again… when exactly did he get her pregnant?
Rebels isn't better than Clone Wars but this doesn't make it bad
Rebels was awesome too
Pro 92 faaaxxxxxxxx
Pro 92 not true but ok
I loved rebels season 3 and 4
Ngilenko342 Rebels IS awesome, so yes it is true
De4thstroke32 rebels is 3/10 at best, there are no good original characters and a shit plot
I love this show to death and I think you did a great job. You were honest about your opinion with both the positives and negatives. You really did this show justice while most just non stop compare it with TCW
It's such a mistake for so many to compare it so heavily to TCW, when each show is meant to have completely different tones/scales/themes/aesthetics, etc.
Scott thebassplayer i totally agree. The two shows share a lot of characters but the spirit is completly diferent.
And while the endlessly compare it to TCW, they somehow just seem to forget the large amount of awful, filler episodes TCW has.
@@godcaoss sooo many!!!! Love both series, but TCW by far had the most filler.
@@godcaoss well I mean there are some bad filler episodes but there are also a ton of bad filler episodes in Rebels. And most of the filler in clone wars is actually really good. And when you really think about it in the long run, basically every episode from season 3 onward is either a small scale arc to set up a larger conflict or a larger scale conflict that still achieves character growth. But even The Clone Wars is filler (Zillo Beast, Saleucami, Lair Of Grievous) it's usually still entertaining. Rebels has bad direction and and a restrictive premise that isnt engaging so it's just not as fun to watch when the story is weaker and trust me, it can get very very weak.
So...this is the yin review to Cosmonaut’s yang review of Rebels.
I found Cosmonaut's review really unfair. You can't keep comparing one show to the other especially when they had to make this one for kids. Despite that I think they did a good enough job. Maybe not as great as TCW but it still had a lot of emotional moments and well crafted arcs. If people choose to overlook all that and just blindly hate on that just because it wasn't up to clone wars standards, then that's just being a hater.
@@mushrifahmed8107 TCW was not just for older fans, it was for kids too.
Kebab Remover Except TCW was on Cartoon Network. Rebels was on Disney XD, which is for a way younger audience.
Mushrif Ahmed yeah, clone wars was B. R. U. T. A. L and rebels is more lighthearted but still involves stuff like blinding and crushing and people’s hearts stop in both shows. Like when kanan was blinded, Vader said ahsokas name and kanan died
@@blazedring1461 That's because Disney told them it had to be kid friendly
The thing I love the most about the Ben vs Maul fight is that Ben takes the Form 4 opening stance, tricking Maul into thinking that he could use the same move that he used to kill Qui-Gon. Maul falls for the bait, and attacks. But then Ben counters it, and defeats Maul. Ben spent years learning how to counter that move. Qui-Gon’s death is one of the reasons Obi-Wan studied Form 3, and became THE master of it. People complained that it was too short, but it makes perfect sense that it was that short. Ben spent decades preparing for that fight.
obi wan used form 3 im pretty sure
@@oikurero8110 yes but he used the form 4 stance that is what he said
Too bad that the episode was 80% ezra and chopper jerking off in the dessert
I give my boi obi wan Kenobi a huge break bc he's my favorite character, with Boba fett following up closely
it made sense and i dont think it was short but what in the world did obi wan do with his arm when he got into that pose like he literally bent his elbow backwards and it just looked really uncomfortable
Finally a person who really understands the show
Gamer King I got so emotional watching this lol Rebels became a great show and I'm proud of Dave Filoni. I like this review! He seems to get the show unlike some other people
Come on does anyone know about me I loved Rebels as well
Adam Nelson yeah!!! I love rebels!!
I appreciated Rebels with its light tone, writing and MOSTLY the lore. I may not like of what they did to the Empire, but the show has done so much more than the Clone Wars.
You should’ve included the grand inquisitors death line
“There are some things worse then death”
It’s brilliant if you see anything about Vader outside of the films
Overall good review. Wish you would have done 2 things:
1. Talk about ezra's connection with animals and the darkside.
2. Kanan regaining his vision after sacrificing himself
Yeah
“And I hope Resistance will be on par with Rebels and Clone Wars”
yeah, uh.....,
no
Same🤣
I actually don’t mind it. If you look past the goofy moments, it’s still a good run to watch at least once.
I was actually thinking of watching resistance. is it at least decent
The inquisitor looks like the son from clone wars
Same🤣
Shit I didn't even notice that lol😂😮
I know
I couldn't tell them apart at first
I felt Star Wars rebels was pretty amazing when you think about what it had to work with when the Disney ownership provided many restrictions compared to the darker more amazing Clone Wars series. Had a bad first season but hey didn't Clone Wars have a meh first season too?
yeah
Agreed. I didn’t start really getting into TCW until season 3, then I was hooked until the very end.
Other than Rookies, Ryloth, a bit of Florum arcs, not really much stood out in that season.
28:03 I just watched all of Rebels in three days and it clearly didn't come out of nowhere. In fact I was surprised it took that long and I thought they where a couple since season one as they treated each other as such.
Dam 3 days!
What are we gonna do when James Earl Jones dies
Clone him?
be sad
Everythingman Well I'm off to Kamino
Cry?
Realize that it's part of life.
FINALLY, SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T MAKE THE SHOW SOUND BAD
Edit: I don't mean everyone needs to have the same opinion on things, I am just saying that it is refreshing that that there is a video that shows some of the highlights of the series. Seriously some of the reviews of the game are exactly the same, saying the same thing again and again "it is not the clone wars so it is horrible"
I mean...... it is?
@@2ndairborneguy790 but it is not that bad of a show
@@finnianwieland752 are you being satirical
@@silascraven its all subjective
Finnian Weiland The way you typed that out made me think you are probably really young.
Absolutely a fantastic tribute to the series! Well done! Can't imagine the amount of work that went into this!
It's kind of disappointing, at the end of 2019, watching this and realizing they never did give us an answer for what happened to Ezra.
Patience, young padawan...
Justin Kelly they are making a comic book or a book about how Ezra and Ashoka died because in the rise of skywalker you can hear Ashoka’s voice as a force ghost
F G go look at Dave Filoni’s tweet on dec 25th might change your mind
Daniel Baker It’s just a wizard and Ahsoka Tano after rebels
F G did you see the content and the date when it was tweeted.. the day people panicked about Ahsoka because of her voice in ROS. But the wizard said to Ahsoka “People thought i was dead too, look how that turned out...” We thought we was dead (because of her voice), but because of this drawing maybe a different conclusion could be made. I dont think it is a coincidence that Mr. Filoni drew this picture and sent it on twitter the day ROS released. Just theories bro
If someone said Clone Wars is kids show and never had seen Clone Wars, he should watch Rebels first.
Shonksu rebels is weirdly disjointed. Most of it is very much directed at kids, but then they have tonal whiplash and do something kind of somber. Then go straight back to the the more kid friendly stuff.
George Lucas always cared about making the movies kid-friendly, he lamented that he wasn't able to do that with Episode 3(as with the other 5 movies), but produced Clone Wars in retribution to the kids audience.
They even introduced Ashoka as the kid sidekick to allow kids to identify themselves with her.
Of course the violence is toned town more in Rebels than in Clone Wars, but that doesn't make Clone Wars violent (there is no blood, no dismemberments and most(if not all) of the injuries are made by weapons that doesn't exists on real life or magical powers).
I watched the complete series of Clone Wars, and I know there are mature topics eventually (after 2 seasons and a half, not right away from the beginning), but it never stopped being kids friendly, even if kids cannot fully appreciate the depth of certain story arcs. Same could be said about Rebels (is always kid friendly, but some of its arcs have depth that can only be appreciated by adults).
In the end Star Wars is not a franchise that relies in graphic violence to cause impact and kids is an important audience(even if is not the only intended audience), so is not precisely the best place to look for something oriented specifically to adults.
Even thought this show had a lot of rough edges, it"s still one of my favorite shows and is the best Star Wars project that's been released since Disney bought LucasFilms
nice grammar and punctuation
@@Spootprime Ok boomer
I agree. It had a nice director at the helm of the show.
7:09 “...vs a weird looking dude”. I swear this line made me cry of laughter 😂
The Dark Saber is in the Mandalorian!
This isnt about the mandalorian so its irrelevant where its at now
SPOILERS
Stop spoiling stuff for the fans, seriously
@@memeprez1281 there a some what connections from the mandalorian to the rebels
“There are lasting consequences” gets hit in the face with a lightsaber only leaving a scar
Miles Martin *cough Kylo Ren *cough
That’s has nothing to do with lasting consequences that’s just Disney making it kid friendly . He gets a scar for the entire series .
@@christiniakollar8397 Exactly, the show would be a lot better in my opinion if Disney didnt come in and made everything kid friendly. Its not a big negative imo but I would have loved to have seen some more lightsaber action.
"5 heroes and one droid"
*Cries in chopper*
Totem haha lol
“One of the most shocking moments in this episode is when Maul blinds Kanan, its something I didn’t *see* coming”
Fun Fact Ewan McGregor’s uncle played wedge in the original trilogy
Thank you so much! I always loved the show but after watching the video I appreciate it even more now. Thanks for not spreading negativity saying how bad the show is compared to TCW although both are great in their own ways. Great video!
Rebels deserves more love. It may not be Clone Wars but it’s still enjoyable. The characters are creative and very fun to watch. I was very salty when they killed Kanan. It was nice to see Ahsoka, Vader, and Maul again too. I have rewatched this show at least 4 times and still love it!
Edit: do you think you can do a video on The Mandalorian or Obi Wan Kenobi? That would be cool!
I like it more than The Clone Wars. The structure of the show (TCW) is messy and you don't get a thing without the chronological order guide.
Also, it has A LOT of filler episodes. Obviously The Clone Wars improved with more budget.
@@saricubra2867 Yeah me too! But Clone Wars is a classic! But its nice to see another Rebels fan
T’was No Clone Wars, But it was Definetly amazing as a sequel series.
Thy have a perfect opinion
Amazing in what respects? Most of the original content was mediocre at best, and it’s heights, if good, were disjointed with the quality of the overall product.
@@midshipman8654 Not to mention the best parts of the series came from characters that were from TCW. Ahsoka and Rex carried the show
Tristan Wall and even then, I think Rex got shafted into oblivion. He really does diddly in terms of importance.
The thing that I have always admired about star wars is their ability to connect their entire universe with little or no plot holes. I love seeing characters from other series and movies brought together, it just gives me the feels.
I just finished watching Rebels and I'm in love with it.
Amazing series! It's clever, not too predictable but not trying to subvert expectations constantly, the characters (both heroes and villains) are believable and well rounded. The strong female characters kick ass without putting down their male counterparts, the ongoing story is addictive and the Ghost is super cool!
Rex design for Rebels was based on an old rebel who can be seen fighting in The Battle of Endor. It's so cool!
Hara calls Kian “love” So if people say it ‘came out of nowhere’, shut it.
"all the prequel characters had 3 movies to develop their characters"
Qui-gon: *cries*
As far as Kanan and Hera go even in the first season they said make Mom and Dad proud kids
I finished watching SWR, and I must say, I LOVED IT! Sure, it had its downs, and sure, it was limited to a lot of things because Disney owns it, unlike the clone wars, but apart from that, its great! A really underrated TV show. It feels so satisfying because its a complete story. I felt emotionally close to these characters, something I never thought I would when I started watching. It wraps up subjects from the clone wars really well, and answers a lot of questions too. If the hate from the clone wars being cancelled was not around, and the show lasted longer, im sure if would near have the potential of clone wars.
Bruh Boomer moment
I loved how it was Sabine who was closing the series off, really love her character and I liked the fact that she had a seen with another one of my favorite characters from clone wars which was Ashoka. Hope Sabine finds Ezra (I really like the both of theme as a couple as well as every single scene that they had together).
Star Wars Rebels....it was one hell of a ride, i will truly miss you(but i will re watch all 4 seasons). Can't wait for the next Star Wars animated TV show(I hope it features Ashoka again). Farewell....until we meet again....and remember, The force will be with you, always.
Personally I don't really understand why people love Sabine so much. I find that she has way too many skills and strengths to find her relatable in anyway so when she accomplished something, I never really think she had to work hard or struggle for it. Just my thoughts though.
Space aladin should've died instead of 'place mentor characters name here' so we didn't have to deal with him anymore. I honestly found to be the most annoying character next to the R2D2 and Chewbacca rejects.
@@tommoolenaar3901 Yeah she's a mary sue. Even more than Rey since she's bassically someone' shitty OC from fanfiction.net come too life. A beautiful mandorian princess who's really good at fighting, everybody likes her is good at art, is the mc's love interest, and is a tough girl who doesn't take shit from anybody.
Alexander Tahtadjian the same goes for me and i hope Ezra and Sabine become a couple #Ezrabine

"We truly see how badass Thrawn is, shooting Bendu in the face."
*pew*
“We truly see how badass thrawn is” being the brilliant tactician he is yet, is unable to snuff out a small group of rebels who aren’t even that good.
Thrawn is overrated fucking hate him
@Robert Ortiz-Wilson I mean, didnt TCW do the same thing with grievous and the droids
Thrawn is good his line when his surveyors or whatever their called being destroyed he has to be nurfed or betrayed so the rebels can live and Grevious was always a chump
@@pokespartytv8086 The rebel cell always came up with super unexpected solutions (Bendu, The purrgil, etc), so Thrawn was still a badass, just out of his element.
15:07 Actually in that season 2 finale after Vader leaves there's a shot of ahoska walking after that bird fly's by
I thought I was the only one to pick up on that lol. I haven't seen one youtuber who even mentions it
@@Hornet1054 I never noticed it the first time I watched it
Ya right. IT'S right there and no one mentions it...
I still get goosebumps from seeing Kanan reveal he was a Jedi
Was enjoying this whole video until Star Wars Resistance got the mention. Did not age well at all
"The inquisitor's lightsaber was awesome and nothing like we've ever seen before"
Me an intellectual: *Starwars the clonewars general grievous spinning electronic lightsaber*
Mothma was also in the clone wars, in the arc when Onocando Farr is poisoned.
The Resistance is horrible with no connections to rebels.
I agree
Same
But it does have connection to the sequel trilogy which honestly let's face the sequels are just completely ass.
Resistance is terrible I hate every thing about the show
@Rohan Dahiya Pluta you right
This was a WAY better review than The Coasmunant's
Unfortunately one of his weaker videos.
@Latvian Dragon The Star Wars Rebels videos. Along with The Last Jedi one too.
I honestly did have the opposite perspective from him on both.
PREACH
That dude talk so must trash that he couldn't bother saying the good stuff beside the Obi want vs Maul fight
@Callum Wong You're excuse...
I love how the background music changes from serious to cool refferences
Well now that Clone Wars is going to be finished properly 50% of people’s complaints about are now non void. (I know there are valid reasons to not like it but are we really going to pretend like it wasn’t peoples primary complaint about why it was a bad show?)
Movieflame: Anthony Daniels voices C-3PO in every appearance he made
Phineas and ferb star wars crossover and HISHE: AM I A JOKE TO YOU
how dare you not call chopper a hero
i watched all of the clone wars and now that disney + is a thing im watching rebels for the first time i would much rather continue this show than rewatch the clonewars.
thats just my opinion, the beginning of every clonewars episode with the narration is such a turn off for me and im more for story driven shows, with some goofyness mixed in.
I agree actually. I tend to rewatch the cool arcs in TCW but Rebels I’ll rewatch the whole show because every episode is a treat
Awesome review! I can tell you truly watched and appreciated SW Rebel's, and your objectivity was spot on. SW Rebels will always be one of my favorite SW projects ever.
I like kanan and ezra but i don't like ezra alone
He feels way too childish and cartoonish given his life and story. He also feels forced into big moments such as asohka and vader fighting while ezra cracks a wise one.
You forgot one thing Kanans eye color came back
I hope they make a sequel to rebels
Really enjoyed the review and glad to see someone enjoy the show for what it was, and not blinded by TCW cancelation and Disney.
You can actually see Rex in the Battle of Endor. He would be the guy with the white beard.
It's theorized that based on how he looked in season 4, Rex was one of the rebel soldiers that were lead by han solo to take out the shield generator for the 2nd death star on the endor moon
He actually is. Filoni confirmed it.
[4:18] Actually, The Clone Wars started out geared towards kids too!! They were BOTH ON KIDS NETWORKS!! THink about it!! ;)
34 minutes nice I'm excited to here his opinions
I like Rebels, but I don’t know if I want to except it as canon because it’s so childish so I never got into it. I have watched more episodes since Clone Wars S7 came out. Watching this I really love the story behind Rebels and it seems to get more mature like clone wars
Well done 👍 thank you for making this video. My favourite Star Wars Rebels character is Kanan I was sad when he died 😭😭😭
My personal rate of Rebels:
Season 1: 6/10
Season 2: 8/10
Season 3: 9/10
Season 4: 10/10
Janobot Season 4 finale:
space whales 3/10
soundtrack 17/10
I belive the correct list is
S1: 2/10
S2:4/10
S34/10
Rest of the seasons up to six:4.3/10
Season 7:5/10
Clone wars man actually watch it with an open mind, belive me I did the same with rebels
Rebals had bad, great and in between moments but the way they handeld maul was incredible and with the music that you had i almost starting crying over him. R.I.P Maul, maybe gone but never forgotton. From one-dimensional villan to one of the most fleshed out villans and characters in star wars.
I recomend the movie Enemy Mine. It's the inspiration for The Honorable ones, the episode where Zeb and Kallus are stranded on that planet.
I think that was one of the first movies with an alien that I ever saw as a child! Definitely the first *inhuman* looking alien. Might have caught a few episodes of Star Trek by then.
Everybody: S1 isn't the best
Me: *The Lightsabers Are Thin*
Can't wait for season 7 of the clone wars
Mark Burns ayyy episode 1 is out since yesterday
Mr.Chicken Arts episode 5 and 6 are kinda garbage in my opinion though, not gonna lie
@@de4thstroke32 how so?
Tyrone McCool they’re just boring in my opinion, I mean, of course I’m gonna stay up till 3 am to watch episode 7, but I still think Bad Batch is better.
Fun fact: Kanan was born on Lothal
Uh No, he was born on coruscant as a force child later then bought to the jedi
So Kanaan and Hera struggled through saying "I love you" and kissing, but already had sex which resulted in Hera being pregnant? Odd. That's like refusing beer and weed at a party while coming to that party completely drunk on a whole bottle of vodka and jacked up on cocaine.
Corristo89 well you can have sex with someone without telling her that you love her
This is one of my favourite star wars reviews because you truly understand what your talking about unlike some movie reviewers cough cough Sean chandler
Rebels was never and will never be as great as Clone Wars.
Don’t get me wrong- it was a great show.
But it kind of tried too hard to become the next clone wars..
I really hope they pick up on the Ezra/Thrawn thread in the Mandalorian Season 2, possibly with Ashoka and Sabine teaming up with Mando.
People were way too hard on Rebels. Clone Wars was a great show, but it absolutely had its weaknesses, especially early on. It’s funny that people criticize Rebels for being too childish, when Clone Wars was clearly aimed at children, too. I appreciate your review!
For original characters that are not set up with backstories (apart from maybe Kanan) I fell in love with these characters. I finished the clone wars and I didn’t think Filoni could do another amazing show like clone wars but he delivered.
I feel like certain people (like another TH-camr on here) who compare Clone Wars to Rebels constantly really just doesn't make sense to begin with. Just because they're both star wars means nothing. It'd be the same if I was like "I mean, Jedi Fallen Order is okay but it's got nothing on Lego Star Wars". They're completely different games. Like what
I liked Rebels, but not as much as TCW, S1 is poor but from S2 it kicks on, The World Between Worlds ep is some best SW.
& I got more feels from Kanan's death an animated character than I did classic character like Lukes death.
Kenobi v Maul showdown is a short but classic.
plus we get Thrawn introduced into canon. it does have to many filler episodes, tho.
Looking forward to reported new animated show about Ashoka & Sabine search for Ezra.
Filoni finishing off his Ashoka Tano Saga..
I liked rebels it was the first star wars show I could watch from start to finish I’m 14 now and I still like it Ezra is one of my favourites characters ever I just wished they explored him using the dark side more it was honestly one of the coolest parts of the show sabezra was how I discovered what shipping was 😂 it’s one of my favourite shows and I can safely say when it’s bad it’s bad but when it’s good it’s good
What amazes me the most about Rebels is how the stakes ramp up, the characters grow, and the sheer legendary amount of references never get too much. It's got a perfect sense of pace and easter eggs from S2 onward, drawing in everything from games, books, comics, and endless Legends material.
Rebel Assault and Jedi Night are both two of my favorite episodes, and two great easter eggs to games from the 90s :)
Oh, and Hera is best Mom. Kanan's arc and finale hit me harder than anything in the Disney era so far, and I love Rebels for giving me a guy Kyle Katarn would be proud of.
biggest thing that grinds my gears is sabine is why to young to have done all of that stuff in that order.
i think rebels did a good job fleshing out characters that were newly introduced. people forget that clone wars characters were already established. it gave them a guideline for the writing of the characters to adhere to. writing new star wars characters for a lengthy show is arguably harder
G Graham Ahsoka was already established? Rex was already established? Then rest of the brilliant clone characters? Even Maul was made a brilliant character by TCW as he had about 5 lines in TPM
15:00 When I first heard this I got chills!
I still got goosebumps, with Ahsoka vs vader, kanan death, and ezra's sacrifice.
Dave Filoni has anounced that both Ezra and Thrawn are alive. Loved the review!
The Rebels writing team deserves to get a shot at a movie. Give them something smaller, like Rogue One, to test if they can write that or are better spent on such shows. If they do well, let them have a major Trilogy.
Agree i want them
to Make a more dark sequel of rebels.
I want you guys to realize that Ezra literally broke time and space. He had the opportunity to stop basically fucking everything
Great video, but how did you not mention the ending of season 2 when Ezra opens the sith holocron with the red light glowing on his glare, and then season 3 starting with him leading with anger and using the holocron.
Cosmonaut Variety review of rebels: Scathing
Movieflame review of Rebels: Glowing
Me: Perfectly balanced as all things should be
Just so you know from fan to fan, Dave Filoni actually has stated in one of the special features in season four that both Ezra and Thrawn are alive. Now that doesn’t mean that if they do end up making a series to wrap all of that up that they won’t change their minds and have it where Thrawn dies
This show was absolutely amazing I loved it I'm mad I didn't watch it sooner I thought it was kiddie I was flat out wrong this show is very mature and super solid the characters arcs are perfect I loved everyone I need a season 5 asap they need to go get my boy Ezra oh and Ashoka Tano is a super awesome Jedi Master love her gimme season 5 now!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
When Kanan died I cried so loud my sister heard me from my room
My problem with your review is that you seem to want everything right away. You aren't supposed to get a characters entire backstory at the start. This is a series not a movie. You have time to learn bits and pieces of it's characters as you get to know them in the present. Unless you do back ground searches on everyone you meet this is how it works in real life as well. Some of these characters are meeting each other for the first time and are getting to know each other to the point of like you said becoming a make shift family. We are learning about each one as they are learning about each other. This seems like a natural progression to me. You say that getting Vader and the inquisitor as the first shot is a crutch.... I'd have to disagree with you there as well. This is Star Wars and these are all new characters. Starting out with Vadar giving orders to search out these characters at the start is a good tie in to the story. We know who Vader is and we know his goals from the previous movies then they move into and introduce the characters that he and the empire are going to be searching for through out the rest of the series. Any way that's just my 2 cents on the subject.
nice review. my only disagreement is with the claim that the characters of Clone Wars are better than the characters of Rebels and the reasoning behind it. just because they were new characters? its all opinion of course, but i think the characters in Rebels are staggeringly superior to those in TCW. and the fact that we didn't know them at the start is one of the reasons for that. in TCW we spend the most time with Anakin and Obi Wan who had very little development due to the fact that they are already established between ep2 and ep3. i like that a lot of what took place in TCW helps to inform how they act in ep3 but they're still the Anakin and Obi Wan we already knew. the Best Characters of that show were Ahsoka and Rex who were also new to us in TCW, but were treated so well that we got to really know them. and Rebels just further developed them in amazing ways. the Ghost crew that we meet in season one of Rebels are not the same characters we say goodbye to in season 4. they all grow so much and behave differently from the start of the series. they are some of the best written characters in all of science fiction in my opinion. just look at your own reaction to Kanan's death. did you ever feel that emotional while watching any episode of TCW? i know i didn't. same with Ezra's sacrifice. and Vader vs Ahsoka. each of these moments were truly devastating. all because of the characters. as much as i love Clone Wars, Rebels is superior in nearly every way. animation, character and story. its the single best story in all of star wars.
I just love the fact that Kanan just puts his lightsaber between the inquisitors and destroys it when he could have done that THE FIRST TIME HE SAW HIM. Plus the lightsaber is basically a portable helicopter because you can see them FLY on it, which is not what a lightsaber is supposed to be used for. Anyway, great video! and good points in the video
Honestly, I think everyone just hates Rebels because it had Clone clone Wars to live up to. If it wasn’t in a giant awesome shadow, I think people would like it just fine. It still wouldn’t be as big a hit nearly as close as its predecessor, I’m just saying it wouldn’t get hated so much.
One of my buddies has a whole family of Star Wars fans, his youngest sister is named Sabine
That’s awesome!
Imagine if they show Cal Kestis and Caleb Dume escaping order 66 in the clone wars series.
