    Ahsoka

    My fear is this is Filoni starting to explain "Somehow, Palpatine returned." But if does that he needs to kill all these characters off. Which I can't see him doing.

    Ahsoka

    There was no resolution! Since I don't know the characters I have no idea why the general was so moved by Bridger turning up. Also leaving the Ray Stevenson plot line unresolved seems a cheat. Especially now we'll need a recast after his untimely demise. And why did he leave his Padawan...

    Ahsoka

    I'm 20 minutes in and understand nothing. I don't know who anyone is or how they relate beyond the simplest goodie baddie breakdown. I love the look and the casting is great (drake from aliens and Kurgan from Highlander in the first 15 mins) but there is lots of talk of stuff and people I don't...

    Mandalorian Season 3

    I've really enjoyed Mando but my interest has now wained. The writing to bring back Grogu didn't make sense beyond "lets keep the series going". The grogu arc had the perfect end and thats been smashed a bit with the Boba Fett stuff, which not only made Luke look very weak against the fan...

    Andor! SPOILERS ALLOWED

    I'm enjoying it - The vibe seems to be "right" for Star Wars. A WW2/Western feel. I like the fact all the bad guys are not always Stormtroopers. They were supposed to be the elite!

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    I really loved it - I can forgive all the silly or badly made bits because of the cast. Leia was very good, I loved seeing alderaan and breha and bail. Reva was a bit useless and badly acted BUT that does seem to have been partially a deliberate choice. Her teenage raging was deliberate and her...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    I would say, even with it's flaws - I think it's a very enjoyable contribution to the library. If one was to be very meta about it all - SW was a complete homage to the Flash Gordon/Buck Rogers/King of the Rocketmen serials. This show feels similar in terms of staging etc, and with a dash of our...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    I enjoyed it. I remember someone back in the seventies calling Star Wars "Enjoyable Hokum" - I felt that was unfair. That is pretty much where Marvel is and now Star Wars has joined them. And I am not sad about that.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    Vader and Obi wans meeting in Anh became Odd once we learned of what happened in the days of the prequels.(I remember the volcano stuff from ROTJ time) Let alone when the prequels were actually made! It doesn't chime with the anger that Vader would have had. So this in between meeting does...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    I am really liking this, and I am not normally forgiving for dodgy SW spin-off material. It just "felt" pretty authentic in the prequel world. The Leia chase was naff but I accepted that as part of this being a TV show without the budget and time to do actual proper cinematic chases. (Boba Fett...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi tv series (SPOILER ALERTS)

    Obi-Wan looks amazing and I am super excited. I will be let down but any Ewan/Ben and Owen/Joel action is heaven sent and seeing Obi-Wan see Luke was worth it alone. So excited!!

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    I felt the fight scenes were a little "TV" - people standing out in the open to be shot. Lots of random running. SW normally has great mis en scene. Also why do characters do silly little flips and swirls after killing someone? Again in SW and westerns people do not do that. It's matter of fact...

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    This was my concern as well. In terms of other media, I don't do that, and haven't since Kevin J Anderson drove a fighter into a sun and blew it up, and also when Witches rode Rancors. I think I'm of the opinion that SW works best when it stays close-ish to the Lucas created works. Even the...

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    I'm really enjoying it but with tiny caveats. 1. Cobb obviously survived. Shot in the arm and it was clear the deputy was there to take the death. 2. Grogu going back to Mando. From a business point of view makes perfect sense. Everyone loves Grogu and Mando. Saves Grogu from dying in the...

    Oh today was good, if slightly off track. And also completely on track. If that makes sense!

    In terms of Boba's ship. I would just claim that people pronounce it wrong. Claim it's pronounced SLAV-EYE.

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    The Mod mods are naff but I see what they are trying to do (a sort of American Graffitit homage but 20 years later) - but I enjoyed episode 4 as well. Boba is growing as a human being.

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    Note how no one dies really. (LOL tuskens offscreen LOL) It is far more child friendly then Mandolarian suprisingly. The underworld isn't very underworldy. Would gangsters really let killers like Chewblacka loose? Boba is a bit "chubby friendly dad" and not "absolute killer" - And note how no...

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    I am enjoying it - But it isn't really Boba Fett. That's still Mandolorean really. Temure is 10 years too old for it. He is the age JANGO would be if he were alive. He's also about 5 stone too heavy. But still - I am really liking it!

    The Book of Boba Fett Discussion Thread (Episode Spoilers Allowed!)

    I enjoyed the Harryhausen wink - I enjoyed but concerned about two things: 1. Basically Mando was Fett - So now Fett has to be a new character... and he seems to be a bit more chilled dad then I would have expected. 2. His companion is a bit boring. And the martial art fight sequences doesn't...
