Ahsoka going outside of the ship to defend it.... Tell me you were Anakin Skywalker's Padawan, without telling me you were his Padaaan That was such an Anakin move. I loved it!
When the greatest of the greats, John Williams, retires I believe that Kevin Kiner is the perfect candidate to take over Star Wars music. Filoni must take full control of Star Wars. Even Rey has potential with Filoni on the helm, writing her properly. Till then, I can't wait for the next episodes of Ahsoka.
I’m a fan of live action Star Wars but don’t know much about Clone Wars, Rebels, etc. I was a little skeptical when I saw Kiner’s name on this project - no input from the better-known names like John Williams (who at least did the theme for Obi-Wan) or Ludwig Goransson. I have to say I’ve loved the music these first 3 episodes. It sounds so classic, epic, evocative. The opening crawl feels ripped out of the 1970s or 80s, in the best way possible. Ahsoka’s first scene felt so Indiana Jones. The end theme is so unique and epic. Also, each “Star Wars” title card at the very beginning of each episode has slightly different music.
@@acslater017 Kiner has also writen an amazing theme for Thrawn. "Thrawn's web" is one of the most menacing theme's I've ever heard for a villain. Whenever I hear that music - combined with Thrawn's threatening presence - I remember the Nazgul theme in Lord of the Rings. I get the same "threat for our heroes" vibe. Not to mention that I can't wait to hear to what he has made for the Ghost crew reunion scene (when they find Ezra).
If I may respectfully offer this thought: I think the scene with Sabine and the ball from Ep 2 plays out at the pace that feels organic to Sabine’s understanding. I think if you really watch her face and just live in the moment with her, divorced from meta-thoughts tv vs movie pacing, the scene is simply letting her artistic thought process lead to the conclusion. You can see the wheels clicking in her eyes. I think if you tried to cut the scene shorter, it would feel like she was solving it too easily. That scene along with Ahsoka in the temple gave me all the feels of trying to solve a puzzle in Uncharted.
Yes sir finally feels like Star Wars. Haven’t been brought out of any shots either it looks great and feels right. Like bro Andor looked good but didn’t feel like Star Wars at all , some shots did but it looked like blade runner lmao
@@proUNITEDSTATES Rebels is a 4-season animated series that can now be watched on Disney+. The Ahsoka show is basically a direct sequel to that show. If you’re not familiar, The Clone Wars animated show, also on Disney+, is where Ahsoka’s character originated. Clone Wars takes place between movie Episodes II and III, while Rebels takes place between the Prequel and Original trilogies. Both animated shows are phenomenal. Both get off to a bit of a slow start, IMO, but develop into some of the best Star Wars content out there!
The thing with the New Republic is exactly as Hera pointed out: It's mostly a bunch of career politicians who didn't do anything to resist the Empire & just say whatever they have to to stay in power. Most of them don't actually care who's in charge as long as they can keep their cushy jobs.
The scene of Ahsoka defending the ship from outside in space is a callback to Rising Malevolence, the 2nd episode of The Clone Wars. Ahsoka/Sabine's dialogue prior to Ahsoka leaving the ship is identical to when Plo Koon/Commander Wolf spoke prior to Plo leaving the escape pod to defend it from outside.
How you have the time to star in great movies from the MCU, Netflix (Extraction 1 & 2), AND react to all things SW is just amazing 😂. Great reaction as always Skyman!
To be fair to Qui-gon, he was lying there dying for like 10 minutes whilst Obi wan fought Maul without medical attention before he died. The only character that wouldn't have immediate access to medical facilities after being stabbed was Reva (twice). Which I agree was ridiculous to have her survive.
I agree, Reva is the only one who really doesn't make sense. especially since she was stabbed (twice) by Vader himself, the second time after direct betrayal/treason. She really should have died in a tragic arc as was the original plan and allowed Obi Wan episode 6 to focus solely on Vader vs Kenobi, and it didn't make any sense that Vader didn't bother with finishing her. Qui Gon got stabbed through the spine and did not recieve any sort of prompt medical support. Darth Maul and the Grand Inquisitor drew on their hatred and darkness to survive. Sabine got hit in the side and was rescued immediately. Those are all explainable comebacks to me but Reva is what jumped the laser-shark
I get your point about the run times & pacing, and, I think it may seem off when compared to a conventional episodic TV show, because, it was all written, and, filmed at once. Then, divided into episodes in editing. A normal TV show goes from writing to production one episode at a time.
Dave wanted episodes 3 and 4 both released on the same day because when you watch it this coming Tuesday you’ll be able to notice how it’s going to wrap up the first part of his show.
It’s getting a little annoying how stupid the new republic leaders are, feels like they have to portray them as inept so that their fall in the sequels make more sense but it seems like every bad decision that can be made gets made. Hope they don’t make Mon Mothma stupid too
Mon Mothma's decisions to reduce the military is what led to the rise of The First Order. Leia grew more and more frustrated with Mon and eventually decided she had enough and split.
@@k--musicthe resistance wasnt formed until the bloodline novel. And by then Mothma was long since retired. So i dont know what that guy is talking about.
Out of around 10,000 Jedi scattered around the galaxy, a few dozen escaping order 66 is not unreasonable. And yes, it only took one to take Palpatine down, (the first time).
Kylo Ren was Ben Solo. Jacen Solo was one of Han and Leia's twins in one of the novelizations. I think the other was named Jaina, or something. Their younger brother was Anakin.
if that's starkiller he's lacking in skills. not the starkiller we know. and also sabine had more training in this one episode than Rey in all 3 movies lmao
also another thing to think of we know this is set before episode 7 imagine that filoni and john help luke and others escape to the new galaxy and they leave behind a luke clone which is murrok and then a new series / film is made of them returning after sidius dies
😯 If done in the correct way then something like this could be a really interesting mindblower! It would no doubt p*ss off fans of the sequels, but I think old EU fans and critics of the sequels could love that. Not only is that drawing on concepts that have precedent from the legends EU but in a new way, but it's also been established in the new canon comics that Palpatine was running experiments off of the DNA from Luke's hand that led to Snoke
For the New Republic, about Ezra Bridger, his name wasn't in the archives so he doesn't exist. Second, Nightsister magick sort of bends the reality of the force.

Nightsister magick is untapped potential to what we now must unlearn what we have learned.

I just wanted to point out that it has been what 20+ years between Guigon and Sabine's lightsaber wounds...the progress of medical tech in that time interval would have been considerable.
Not to mention he got stabbed closer toward the heart. I just dont get how people can be mad about stab wounds, but are fine with Maul being cut in half and thrown down a shaft.
We're have also seen a lightsaber cut people's arms and feet of and they go to a hospital get a new arm and leg & they are good as new. Lightsabers have never injured anyone in any way different than a standard weapon. It's a freaking cool weapon that can cut through anything but that's it. A deadly strike will always be a deadly strike. An injury that modern doctors can heal you from 88% of the time isnt going to do something to someone in Star wars
I disagree so much about Morgan, the Nightsister. It's pretty obvious Dathomir will come into play at some point, she will play a crucial role later on. All I'm gonna say is, remember that witches can bring the dead back to life. And try to imagine what they might find in the World Between Worlds. 😉
To speak on the nerfing of lightsabers, George Lucas showed us how lightsabers literally radiate intense amounts of heat when Qui-Gon stabbed the door on the trade federation ship and it was melting it, so when Maul stabbed Qui-Gon and left his blade in him he cooked Qui-Gon's innards. Every single time someone has been stabbed with a lightsaber the blade has been left in for a length of time, yet Qui-Gon is the only one to die. Since Disney bought Lucasfilm, lightsabers are literally light sticks. Obi-Wan's lightsaber literally bounces off stormtrooper armor... STORMTROOPER ARMOR!!!!
Sam witwer had stated that if they were to ever do starkiller it would be a different form of starkiller. Likely one that was an apprentice to Vader but I doubt they would make him be as powerful as starkiller actually is. Theories I've heard would put him on par with Ahsoka in terms of power
I think what we're seeing with the New Republic is the same arrogance we saw from the Jedi Order. This leaves plenty of room for an easy rise for the First Order. Given where we picked up in the sequels it makes sense. The novel "Bloodline" goes into depth on this very topic through Leia's perspective.
Television exists as a business to get you to watch advertisements, traditionally. You gotta know that stretching a story out and stalling for time is what you were going to get.
Cutting people up with a lightsaber was always frowned upon by the Jedi order. If people have a higher probability of surviving a stabbing, that would make more sense for the Jedi to prefer a disabling wound rather than a killing/maiming stroke. Even Count Dooku disabled Kenobi with a tap of the saber.He didn't maim Anakin until he pressed him. And can people get off of Star Killer already? He was a stupid and over the top broken character. He completely broke the concept of power scaling for force users. He can't functionally exist in canon without being nerfed into the ground
This comment is coming after ep5 is already out so no spoilers for those not caught up, but I do really like where Filoni has taken this show so far, and I hope it sticks the landing. I'm happy with the direction they go with Marrok as some of the wilder fan theories while cool would have really done injustice to certain characters unless things ended up differently. The dogfighting and Ahsoka's spacewalk maneuvers in this one were awesome. I'm also glad that this seems to be the only shorter episode we'll get in the season, because that trend has been the biggest downside of the SW tv shows so far. If I had one critique so far, which is similar to what I'd want done to several of the other live action shows as well, it's that I wish the first four episodes had been condensed into two longer opening episodes, jumping right into what is episode 5 being #3 instead and leaving five full episodes of whatever comes after. I feel like both 1+2 and 3+4 feel like they're incomplete without each other as is, and if you trimmed some of the pacing people seem to be having issues with I think each of those 'arcs' could have fit into nice meaty hour-long episodes leading into the banger that is currently ep 5 also just to clarify, when you said Andor did you mean Mando s3?
I actually think one of the reasons the Jedi use lightsabers is that they can be less lethal than regular swords or blasters. It cauterizes wounds so people don't bleed out when injured. Unless you're WalrusMan. Jedi don't intend on killing when using lightsabers. Unless they have to. #makeitmakesense
Great reaction, like always this show is getting better and better Filoni did a great job, watching the callbacks and references are so good, and the music score is on point, i have a theory about who Marrok could be the best one is that he is a Darth Vader's secret apprentice - a canon version of Starkiller. Other people say that he could be Ezra himself. Lets wait to see, Keep up the amazing work.
Seeing Sabine and Marrok have their helmet lit in the opposite colours you'd expect, I predict same kind of exchange. Perhaps they join forces against Thrawn's undead troopers? The anticipation is constipating
So by your logic, someone should die if they get shot in the pinky versus being shot in the head? That's ridiculous. There's a huge difference between being stabbed with a lighsaber through the heart or spine versus off to the side and lower in the abdomen.
The training duel could've been so sweet if Ashoka had blindfolded herself after Sabine dawned the helm, only to remove hers after Sabine peeks at the end. ✨😔✨
20:23 Yes, the Jedi along with the Galaxy saw many generations of peace, but every successful Order needs to learn to adapt. The Jedi didn't, and it eventually caught up to them. I mean, think about it. After all these years of wars, the Jedi still decided to continue to be used as puppets for the Republic. They cared more about the combat training and the useless dogma more than their ethics. It was always going to be easy for Sidious to infiltrate the Republic. He played an effective long con, but the Jedi were absolutely blinded. Badass? Yes. Competent? Not even a bit. Yoda was legit so full of guilt over the epic blunder, he just exiled himself. Luke continued to repeat those very mistakes, and it resulted in the Jedi getting nearly wiped out yet again. The Order needs to change, or it will crumble to dust eventually.
I like this guy as a person but as a Star Wars fan he does fall under the nit pick every single thing that doesn’t go exactly the way he pictures in his mind and it kinda makes watching the channel hard… like saying he was wants the forests to be feeding the whales instead… like come on bro
So would looking into the creation of the clone army and not waiting 3 years to do so. Or just retreating your fleet of star destroyers after the death star is destroyed instead of just easily taking out the rebels. Leadership in star wars has never been very bright.
1000 years of peace then they allowed themselves to be made generals of war when they were "peace keepers". they had clone troopers who were the jedi's slaves literally used for war with no other consideration. the jedi are a perversion of the force like the sith, its why anakin wiping out the jedi order was bringing balance to the force. the jedi were wrong no matter how you feel about it and ahsoka is right to think so.
I have a few thoughs about the show, would love to hear you take on it Master Skyman. 1. I feel like they nerfed Ahsokas powers heavily. She went toe-to-toe against Vader, and walked away unharmed. She defeated Maul, even bringing him in alive. Yet she is struggling with 4 droids i ep. 1, struggling against the inquisitor in ep. 2, and she lets the lightsaber fly by her instead of catching/forcestopping it... She should have held back the ship as well (like Vader and Rey)... 2. If the Jedi knew of the purgils, and intergalaxy lanes. I would expect several jedi would have voluntered to connect with them and explore the unknown... I mean, it is over thousands of generations, and you are telling me Ezra is the first to go??? 3. If Sabine, Hera and Ahsoka really went looking for Ezra, and the droid had knowledge of the Purgils being present on Denab. Wouldn't/shouldn't they have tried going there already and Ahsoka could try connecting with the Purgil and get then to drag their ship to the same place as Ezra and Thrawn??? Naming purgils "star-whales" is maybe the greatest name in SW history.... ❤️❤️
I wouldnt calll it struggling, she definatly had the upper hand, just like in rebels when she fought the inquisitors. Huyang never mentions a history of whales connected to that specific planet. He also says you would need an already tracked route to the other galaxy or you will most likely die going in blind. Its why everybosy assumed Ezra and Thrawn were dead all this time.
@@magicconchshell - I still feel that Ahsoka vs droids should be an easy match... Just think how she treated them in Clone Wars... Ahsoka vs Marrok should be like closer to Vader vs Reva... I thought Huyang said that previously they knew of the purgils migrating route between galaxies.... if that is so, they would certainly know the point of origin AND at the very least which galaxy they ended in...
@@MaximusMeridiusDK just that in olden days routes were establised from purgills rravels, not that they had any of them. And lets be real, how many times should greivous and other been owned in clone wars. Lighrsaber fights would be boring if there wasnt some back and forth.
@@magicconchshell - I totally agree about the back and forth. But Ahsoka is so powerful AND experienced, I feel like they underpowered her so much, just to have some back and forth... And I hate it, because I absolutely love Ahsokas character... And I would be as well entertained by her owning the droids and Marrok, as I was entertained by Vader vs Reva.... And it would have set up an epic battle with Sabine vs Shin, where Sabine gets injured (again). Ahsoka then comes in to fight Shin, who she injures and then Baylan comes in and we get Ahsoka vs Baylan as an epic battle... Baylan is defeated, but slows Ahsoka enough for Thrawn to escape, and voila... Season 2.... All of this is of course to rescue Ezra, who is held captive by Thrawn....
Hey, didn't Starkiller, get stabbed through the back by Vader and surviving. 🤔 And I heard that this was the only episode this short. All the ones after are gonna be consistently longer than this one.
@BBekwyth Well guess what? George Lucas has an apprentice in the form of Dave Filoni. An apprentice that has control over a creation George himself said that his Vader has an apprentice, which is now in the form of Ahsoka. Why Ahsoka? Why not. The Universe is Extended. Deal with it.
The series has been rather interesting so far however you have to take into consideration George Lucas actually first went to Disney way back in the day for the original trilogy and was basically said no to when he originally wanted to create Star wars to begin with and Disney didn't want to take the risk that is also along the lines of the way Disney is handling it the idea that oh we regretted everything that we ever did by saying no to begin with
The GI had 2 hearts so normal that he is still fine... Qui-Gon was hit dead center... cuts the main aorta and main vein in the body no more blood to the heart = dead... Reva and Sabine were stabbed near the side in the kidney... not a kill shot. stop fucking whining yo
Even though galaxies outside the SW exist.I feel that where we are with the franchise,it would cheapen the feel and decades worth of, il just say magic.I hope it doesnt start feeling like the MCU.I in open to ideas and such but now that the cats well out of the bag i hope future directors,writers etc wont just go mental with it.

If people have a higher probability of surviving a stabbing, that would make more sense for the Jedi to prefer a disabling wound rather than a killing/maiming stroke. Even Count Dooku disabled Kenobi with a tap of the saber.He didn't maim Anakin until he pressed him. And can people get off of Star Killer already? He was a stupid and over the top broken character. He completely broke the concept of power scaling for force users. He can't functionally exist in canon without being nerfed into the ground
also jacyn syndulla is in rebels at the end
Sam Witwer, that is not. Its the same guy that does the voice of the Battle Droids and Grievous, he is in the voice credits as well.
This comment is coming after ep5 is already out so no spoilers for those not caught up, but
I do really like where Filoni has taken this show so far, and I hope it sticks the landing. I'm happy with the direction they go with Marrok as some of the wilder fan theories while cool would have really done injustice to certain characters unless things ended up differently. The dogfighting and Ahsoka's spacewalk maneuvers in this one were awesome. I'm also glad that this seems to be the only shorter episode we'll get in the season, because that trend has been the biggest downside of the SW tv shows so far.
If I had one critique so far, which is similar to what I'd want done to several of the other live action shows as well, it's that I wish the first four episodes had been condensed into two longer opening episodes, jumping right into what is episode 5 being #3 instead and leaving five full episodes of whatever comes after. I feel like both 1+2 and 3+4 feel like they're incomplete without each other as is, and if you trimmed some of the pacing people seem to be having issues with I think each of those 'arcs' could have fit into nice meaty hour-long episodes leading into the banger that is currently ep 5
also just to clarify, when you said Andor did you mean Mando s3?
to Yoda, listened you should have......."the force, in everyone is"
Shin and Baylan are my favorite star wars characters in a while. Im curious as to what theyre really after, not fully good but not fully bad either
Cryinggabout light saber stabs is crazy 😬😬
Yeah Jacen was Han and Leia's oldest son in the Legends universe, sadly he went down Anakin's path and became a Sith
My theory is 'The Path' from Obi-Wan is the same as the Pathway to Peridea aka the intergalactic hyperspace routes.
The Path from Obi Wan got obliterated by Darth Vader in Jedi: Survivor
Needs more Shin.
There will be lots more Shin when her master turns back to the light side, my guess
That was a great episode.
I actually think one of the reasons the Jedi use lightsabers is that they can be less lethal than regular swords or blasters. It cauterizes wounds so people don't bleed out when injured. Unless you're WalrusMan. Jedi don't intend on killing when using lightsabers. Unless they have to. #makeitmakesense
LIGHTSABERS WERE NOT DESIGNED TO KILL
Great reaction, like always this show is getting better and better Filoni did a great job, watching the callbacks and references are so good, and the music score is on point, i have a theory about who Marrok could be the best one is that he is a Darth Vader's secret apprentice - a canon version of Starkiller. Other people say that he could be Ezra himself. Lets wait to see, Keep up the amazing work.
Balin really reminds me of that Darkside Ben Kenobi concept art for the cancelled Battlefront 4
Seeing Sabine and Marrok have their helmet lit in the opposite colours you'd expect, I predict same kind of exchange. Perhaps they join forces against Thrawn's undead troopers? The anticipation is constipating
I love the fact that Filoni is restoring an appropriate level of drama, and, mysticism to the Jedi, instead of that "midichlorians" rubbish.
So by your logic, someone should die if they get shot in the pinky versus being shot in the head? That's ridiculous. There's a huge difference between being stabbed with a lighsaber through the heart or spine versus off to the side and lower in the abdomen.
17:27 Who thinks these New Republic fleet will be utilized in this season?
Did you notice the apprentice sith still had to use her targeting computer? nice touch
Marrok before episode starts is in blue light saber light…… interesting 🤔
The training duel could've been so sweet if Ashoka had blindfolded herself after Sabine dawned the helm, only to remove hers after Sabine peeks at the end.
✨😔✨
Im pretty sure the run time does not include the credits. And an hour show with conmericals is only about 40 minutes
20:23 Yes, the Jedi along with the Galaxy saw many generations of peace, but every successful Order needs to learn to adapt. The Jedi didn't, and it eventually caught up to them. I mean, think about it. After all these years of wars, the Jedi still decided to continue to be used as puppets for the Republic. They cared more about the combat training and the useless dogma more than their ethics. It was always going to be easy for Sidious to infiltrate the Republic. He played an effective long con, but the Jedi were absolutely blinded. Badass? Yes. Competent? Not even a bit.
Yoda was legit so full of guilt over the epic blunder, he just exiled himself. Luke continued to repeat those very mistakes, and it resulted in the Jedi getting nearly wiped out yet again. The Order needs to change, or it will crumble to dust eventually.
You should do a baylan ASMR!
I second this!
My favorite Dude
I like this guy as a person but as a Star Wars fan he does fall under the nit pick every single thing that doesn’t go exactly the way he pictures in his mind and it kinda makes watching the channel hard… like saying he was wants the forests to be feeding the whales instead… like come on bro
That's not nitpicking. That's just a cool idea he thought of
I think we will get 2 seasons of Ashoka then straight into Rebels live action with Zeb and possibly Callas
Oh my gosh indeed…
Jason was the sons name in the finale of rebels
If someone steals a super stardestroyer hyperdrive, you'd think that would be a top priority for the military to investigate. Just saying.
Men are in charge of that and that’s why they failed.
So would looking into the creation of the clone army and not waiting 3 years to do so. Or just retreating your fleet of star destroyers after the death star is destroyed instead of just easily taking out the rebels. Leadership in star wars has never been very bright.
@@rebelscum1728jesus the insecurity. Also what are you talking about. The senate was a mix of both men and women. With a woman as chancellor.
1000 years of peace then they allowed themselves to be made generals of war when they were "peace keepers". they had clone troopers who were the jedi's slaves literally used for war with no other consideration. the jedi are a perversion of the force like the sith, its why anakin wiping out the jedi order was bringing balance to the force. the jedi were wrong no matter how you feel about it and ahsoka is right to think so.
I have a few thoughs about the show, would love to hear you take on it Master Skyman.
1. I feel like they nerfed Ahsokas powers heavily. She went toe-to-toe against Vader, and walked away unharmed. She defeated Maul, even bringing him in alive. Yet she is struggling with 4 droids i ep. 1, struggling against the inquisitor in ep. 2, and she lets the lightsaber fly by her instead of catching/forcestopping it... She should have held back the ship as well (like Vader and Rey)...
2. If the Jedi knew of the purgils, and intergalaxy lanes. I would expect several jedi would have voluntered to connect with them and explore the unknown... I mean, it is over thousands of generations, and you are telling me Ezra is the first to go???
3. If Sabine, Hera and Ahsoka really went looking for Ezra, and the droid had knowledge of the Purgils being present on Denab. Wouldn't/shouldn't they have tried going there already and Ahsoka could try connecting with the Purgil and get then to drag their ship to the same place as Ezra and Thrawn???
Naming purgils "star-whales" is maybe the greatest name in SW history.... ❤️❤️
I wouldnt calll it struggling, she definatly had the upper hand, just like in rebels when she fought the inquisitors. Huyang never mentions a history of whales connected to that specific planet. He also says you would need an already tracked route to the other galaxy or you will most likely die going in blind. Its why everybosy assumed Ezra and Thrawn were dead all this time.
@@magicconchshell - I still feel that Ahsoka vs droids should be an easy match... Just think how she treated them in Clone Wars...
Ahsoka vs Marrok should be like closer to Vader vs Reva...
I thought Huyang said that previously they knew of the purgils migrating route between galaxies.... if that is so, they would certainly know the point of origin AND at the very least which galaxy they ended in...
@@MaximusMeridiusDK just that in olden days routes were establised from purgills rravels, not that they had any of them. And lets be real, how many times should greivous and other been owned in clone wars. Lighrsaber fights would be boring if there wasnt some back and forth.
@@magicconchshell - I totally agree about the back and forth. But Ahsoka is so powerful AND experienced, I feel like they underpowered her so much, just to have some back and forth... And I hate it, because I absolutely love Ahsokas character... And I would be as well entertained by her owning the droids and Marrok, as I was entertained by Vader vs Reva.... And it would have set up an epic battle with Sabine vs Shin, where Sabine gets injured (again). Ahsoka then comes in to fight Shin, who she injures and then Baylan comes in and we get Ahsoka vs Baylan as an epic battle... Baylan is defeated, but slows Ahsoka enough for Thrawn to escape, and voila... Season 2.... All of this is of course to rescue Ezra, who is held captive by Thrawn....
i can never pinpoint the time period in these star wars shows...
Hey, didn't Starkiller, get stabbed through the back by Vader and surviving. 🤔
And I heard that this was the only episode this short. All the ones after are gonna be consistently longer than this one.
What happened to you? Oh I got stabbed by a lightsaber it'll be ok.
My Whales !!!!!
I like the Bruce Lee Longstreet reference in this episode
Do you want quality or runtime?
@BBekwyth Well guess what? George Lucas has an apprentice in the form of Dave Filoni.
An apprentice that has control over a creation George himself said that his Vader has an apprentice, which is now in the form of Ahsoka.
Why Ahsoka? Why not.
The Universe is Extended. Deal with it.
The series has been rather interesting so far however you have to take into consideration George Lucas actually first went to Disney way back in the day for the original trilogy and was basically said no to when he originally wanted to create Star wars to begin with and Disney didn't want to take the risk that is also along the lines of the way Disney is handling it the idea that oh we regretted everything that we ever did by saying no to begin with
Another conspiracy theory. Try taking the tin foil hat off for a while and join the rest of humanity
The GI had 2 hearts so normal that he is still fine... Qui-Gon was hit dead center... cuts the main aorta and main vein in the body no more blood to the heart = dead... Reva and Sabine were stabbed near the side in the kidney... not a kill shot. stop fucking whining yo
Even though galaxies outside the SW exist.I feel that where we are with the franchise,it would cheapen the feel and decades worth of, il just say magic.I hope it doesnt start feeling like the MCU.I in open to ideas and such but now that the cats well out of the bag i hope future directors,writers etc wont just go mental with it.
SHIN MY FAVORITE! 🔥💥🔥
Same, no sound
If Starkiller ever makes live action they would have to nerf him so much you and everyone else would complain
Thor is a biggest Star Wars fan ever
For me, there is no sound on the video 🤔
Is that Rey movie still happening??
Im convined Marrok is a Starkiller adaptation
Me too.
Would’ve been nice to have a kanan reference when Sabine couldn’t see.
I’d duel with you master 🫡
