Basically Ahsoka starts out as a sour cunt in her show and then gets the shit beaten out of her by Titus Pullo, which results in her near death and meeting Anakin in some parallel dimension addressing her insecurities concerning her training, assuring her his teachings weren't tainted. She then accepts this, puts on a white robe and becomes much happier in appearance.
I like it. Stevenson is excellent, his dark Jedi apprentice is cute, lots of lightsaber duels, quality visuals for the most part, Tennant's droid is surprisingly likable and what's also nice is that it feels more lika a movie and less like one of those monster of the week things. The women are somewhat annoying and The New Republic is a bunch of incompetent goofy looking retards but I find that stuff bearable.
Jury is still out since it's incomplete, it just had it's best episode but it's still wait-and-see because there's only three episodes left and probably the shows major issue so far had been pacing.
Andor told complete stories with each of it's three episode arcs, Ahsoka might pull off one story with eight.
Andor's just a very good kind of show. It's more "what if someone used Star Wars to make something really good" versus Ahsoka's "what if someone made some pretty decent Star Wars"
>Rogue One is good and respects the source material
LMAO, not it doesn't you fucking liar. >defecting Imperial engineer purposefully built a flaw into the Death Star specifically for the Rebels to eventually destroy it once they recovered the plans, and the Empire just accepts this >Jyn Erso is just a Rule 63 Dash Rendar, but with none of the personality >outside of the sarcastic reddit droid, the rest of the cast is barely memorable (Donnie Yen's just a meme character with no actual impact) >the ending creates a huge plot hole for the beginning of ANH
It was bog standard goyslop made for cum-guzzling retards like you. Simple as.
Andor is a great spy thriller show. It's got the usual disney slop, but overall it was pretty kino TV for the current era. It's like a proper show with a Star Wars shell on top.
Andor is on a completely different level of quality that Ahsoka doesn't even come close to(Andor actually feels like a real show and not just DUDE STAR WARS) but its still not god awful, the villains do carry it a lot and so far Ahsoka herself is a pretty terrible MC.
what i tell everyone about Andor is that you start out asking why you should care about any of the characters, but it does a very good job at winning you over.
by the end I was quite impressed at how well it all turned out & i remember not caring at all in the beginning
Andor is bizarrely very very good. It feels like it got outsourced to HBO or something. It's completely different in tone and filming in real locations. Andor is the best thing Disney have done with Star Wars. But nobody watched it.
It's okay. There's a general wankery to the whole thing. This most recent episode is a lot more thematically savvy than I expected it to be and is probably one of the better hours Disney has delivered since they bought Lucasfilm (and I'm not a prequelfag nor a TCWfag, lest you think I was bewitched by Christensen showing up).
My biggest issue with this entire show is that it's very obvious it's not going to be much more than the prelude to whatever movie or TV series comes next, because aside from Andor that's been their entire model since The Mandalorian's second season and this show already has far too much to resolve in three episodes.
It’s the best they’ve delivered so far, which isn’t saying much. Would never pay for Disney slop but it has its moments. The white male sith carries the show. Better than Mandalorian. Haven’t seen Andor yet.

Of course it's possible, however the fact remains that Trandor fans are exclusively ESB supremacists who despise Return of the Jedi for spoiling their fun with ewoks and killing Boba Fett and letting the rebels win instead of the empire, etc. There is simply no overlap between fans of Blandor and enjoyers of Return of the Jedi, they are mutually exclusive, like the people that enjoy Batman Forever and those that enjoy Batman Begins.

Incorrect.
The only good scenes are anytime Stevenson or the little blonde are on screen, everyone else is awful. The wop/chink is tolerable but only because she’s the first fuckable female Disneys cast in 8 years.
My honest opinion of Star Wars content: >Episode I - 10/10 >Episode II - 10/10 >Episode III - 10/10 >Episode IV - 10/10 >Episode V - 10/10 >Episode VI - 10/10 >Episode VII - 4/10 >Episode VIII - 3/10 >Episode IX - 3/10 >Rogue One - 6/10 >Solo - 7/10 >Droids - 7/10 >Ewoks (animated series) - 6/10 >Holiday Special - 4/10 (9/10 if you only count the Boba Fett cartoon) >Ewoks: Caravan of Courage - 7/10 >Ewoks II: The Battle for Endor - 7/10 >Clone Wars (Tartakovsky) - 8/10 >The Clone Wars - 9/10 >Rebels - 9/10 >The Mandalorian - 9/10 >The Bad Batch - 7/10 >The Book of Boba Fett - 7.5/10 >Kenobi - 5/10 (7/10 if you remove the nigress) >Andor - 6/10 >Ahsoka - 8/10

If you like a show that is about 5% Star Wars and 95% some guy bumbling about the galaxy doing boring drawn out shit where barely anything intersting happens. Recommend skipping to the prison episodes since at least that's visually stunning and THX1138-like interesting.
No, it's really bad. Basically it's by a guy who is responsible for children's star wars cartoons and now he's doing live action. >But Lucas did children's movies
He did Indiana Jones and THX 1138. Not even remotely relevant.
Yes, watch Andor. It's the only good thing that's come from the Disney buyout.

No, but the recent episode spontaneously """redeemed""" it because "MUH HECKIN' CLONE WARS KINORINO" memberberries. /misc/'s been undergoing an influx of discord chud astroturfers over the past 24 hours, but it'll wear off in the next couple of days once they get their checks. It's still a feminist power fantasy through and through.
If it wasn't for the Imperial Officer hat, I never would've known this was Star Wars. Seriously, why is that dyke-looking bitch carrying what looks like a WWII-esque AK-47 in a another galaxy that's supposed to have advanced alien tech?

But what does Ahsoka have to do with The Last Jedi? How is he "shitting on Rian"? I think you're just seeing things. Rian literally taught Filoni how to direct live-action.
The way a character gets treated. Structurally Ahsoka has similar ingredients to the sequels, like the map leading to an enemy in hiding in the first episode, like her being downtrodden and low on faith. Everything is just done with more care.
i can see it, but it's also thousands of years deep in the foundations of western mythology. it's always an easy way to give the impression of significance and doesn't have to be calling out to anything star wars in particular.

Trying to deal with canon in these mega franchises is a fool's errand at this point. Star Trek probably had the most bloated canon of any franchise by the year 2000, but writers delt with it by always moving into the future and giving a wide berth to prior events. This constant sequel/prequel/inbetween-qeul is unmanageable.
If they had any sense, they'd just write whatever was fun and take a alternative history approach.

they need to use the world between worlds to undo the events of the disney trilogy and remove it all from canon
You forgot the part where the entire scene with Anakin is barely conveyed, filled with platitudes and masturbatory flashbacks. I see exactly what Dave was trying to do and he fucked up big time. Not only is the process unconvincing, the show makes zero effort to show us she has a problem to begin with, barring her acting stoic and a throwaway line from the antagonist. She never makes a fatal mistake that we as an audience can attribute to her attitude. We never get to intimately suffer with her. Filoni is such a dogshit writer and I’d say someone needs to reel him in but the rest suck too.
I agree it was messy but I appreciate the attempt. Her focusing on being raised as a warrior and overly associating the war with Anakin's fall and thus rejecting his teachings and being insecure and lacking the will to fight things through was overall a bit contrived, especially considering, as you said, she never seemed to be in a super low place and that unwilling to fight in the first place.
Right, but we can convince ourselves anything is good if we think hard enough. The problem is even The Clone Wars - a cartoon for babies - didn’t coast by on goodwill from the audience for simply attempting to tell a, by any metric, standard character story. This is supposed to be the canonizing of that cartoon into the live action big leagues and it’s pure slop.
I never treat Filoni stuff as anything other than fanfic, I'm a Genndyfag myself but since the brand keeps going and is seemingly irreplacable (Snyder won't be able to do it), I'll be positive about it when I see them going in the right directon.

You guys are missing the context of her initial struggle. It's not about fighting the bad guys, it's about her willingness to fully commit to training Sabine. She already ran away from it once, and even now she was keeping her at arm's length. It's because of what Baylan was immediately able to sense from her, that she was only part of a legacy of death and destruction.
>t's about her willingness to fully commit to training Sabine
Sabine isn't even force sensitive. With the Empire all but defeated, it can't be hard for Ahsoka to find a force sensitive Padawan to take on. She could even join with Luke.
I know it's probably something more in depth in the cartoon, but yeah, Ahsoka died, spent time with Anakin in Force Heaven, and now came back with a new light
im still confused, did she actually die and came back to life? was she just unconscious the whole time in the water and dreamed of anakin? or was she teleported to the other dimension and brought back by the force or sum shieez
She was having a Near Death Experience, and NDEs are real and prove that there is an afterlife and that we are eternal and will go to heaven unconditionally when we die. And NDErs talk about how we wanted to come here and that the meaning of life is to learn to love and be kind and thrive here despite how hard it is in this world. So life is like going to Harvard. Tough, but our choice, to learn from.
And NDEs are more real than life. One way this manifests is how much better and more intense the feelings are there. As one woman remarked:
>"So I went into the light, and as I was moving up into the light, I just started to feel so good. You know like I can't, words can't explain it. Like the higher that I went into the light, and the more that I moved up and further away from Earth, the better I felt. And the feeling of pleasure does not really apply to this Earth, like nothing can compare. Like if you took everything that you were in favor of, like maybe getting a massage, in a hot tub, your favorite music, your favorite food, your favorite drink, everything that you love, happening to you all at once, no matter what it is, all at once, it would not even closely compare to the pleasure that was just within that light. And as you moved further into, like further away from this Earth, the pleasure felt even better. So you just moved up it felt better and better, it was insane."
From here: https://youtu.be/U00ibBGZp7o
And the NDE convinces everyone who has it, even hardcore skeptics, according to this: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mysteries-consciousness/202204/does-afterlife-obviously-exist
So this argument is literally airtight, irrefutable proof of an afterlife, because we know now that the NDE will convince anyone, no matter how skeptical they may be.
>prove that there is an afterlife
No they dont. They prove nothing of the sort. The fact people have similar experiences is because we all have shared structures in the brain, simple as.
Oh? You think your brain comes from a different source than everyone elses? Read a real book for once in your life gay

>The last scene of RotJ is Luke smiling and laughing with all his friends and giving a nod to the ghosts.
Well, thanks to Disney we all know how that comes out.
The fact that she fights people in 3 separate shows prior to her own, and in 4 episodes of her own show leading up to this one makes the whole "You need to be willing to fight" thing feel redundant and like fixing a problem that didn't exist.
Like it would have had more impact of the show had actually gone into her character's misgivings about her training under Anakin instead of the fallout between Ahsoka and her Padawan happening off screen in favor her doing flips in space to slice ships in half.
Exactly. It was trying to be profound when there was never anything for it to be profound about. This entire show feels completely unearned and out of nowhere. We have zero build up or backstory to the villains or what they want. We have no idea why anyone would think or believe Thrawn and Ezra are still alive, and in another galaxy. You would simply assume dead because, well, they've been gone for like 10-15 years. This nonsense is trying to exist in a vacuum to excuse it's weak pace and writing, yet there is no vacuum.
And then introducing Nightsister Morgan who definitely didn't act like a Nightsister in her initial appearance or look like a female Dathomirian who also somehow has a connection to Thrawn.
>"When gone I am, last of the jedi will you be"
Whoops I'm sorry Yoda, now there's dozens of lighsaber swinging gays running around calling themselves dark jedi, former jedi, jedi in training, etc.
At the risk of taking this post too seriously, the Jedi are followers of a specific creed, not merely force users. Pretty much everyone else running around at the time had either stopped following the code or was tapping into dark side stuff. Yoda and Kenobi were pretty pronounced dogmatists.
Even George said like 150 of them escaped the Purge
Difference is Yoda and Obi-wan believed in keeping the Orders lights on, everyone else went into survival mode or stopped being Jedi
visceral star wars combat and initiative based conflicts with invasions, tug-of-war and distinct phases of pitched battles died with revenge of the sith. the entire engineering aspect of the military vehicles in SW has been long forgotten and the writers of these shows don't know how to make satisfying combat scenes. its just lightsaber duels and hero ships being chased by a couple TIE fighters for the foreseeable future. this is the post-game of thrones sci-fi hell.
>visceral star wars combat and initiative based conflicts with invasions, tug-of-war and distinct phases of pitched battles died with revenge of the sith.
It's remarkable how well they play out in revenge of the sith considering they were basically background noise, and yet they're still followable.
Kashyyk, Utapau, then all of the order 66 ones the battles were hardly even necessary, and yet they were still more interesting and dynamic than anything disney has done in 10 years.
Did it ever occur to you that "nostalgia porn" is not a good thing? Because it isn't. You are a mindless consumer. This serves no purpose. It is reductive of Star Wars, George Lucas' actual films and story, the thing you claim to love but are really just a slave to that Disney continues to milk. There is no justification for this to exist, it adds and accomplishes nothing other than making idiots like you clap like seals for your daily fish.
>nostalgia porn
I dont want "nostalgia porn", I want actual decent new content that just doesnt remind me of better content made 30 years ago.
Also clone wars came out when I was like 20 and I couldnt give less of a fuck about some dogshit cartoon made by a bunch of losers.
They should have spent at least 2 episodes on this. They could have taken their time and really done a more believable development. It was good, but it could have been way better. As it's presented she shows up, Anakin says a little bit, and then the conclusion is just "Ahsoka needs to fight." The only reason it was even remotely good was because of the source material it's drawing from and the fact it had Hayden and that little kid who was actually a really good child actor. The actual delivery of it was pretty superficial, shallow, Disney trash. It was nostalgia porn, but that's all it was when it could have been that and a ton more.
This is modern "sexuality" writ large. Here is a man with a healthy body choosing to fuck a door. He is not much separated from health men who choose to fuck anuses or mouths. Not much separated from women who "fuck" each other. None of this is sex. Sex is sex. Worthless stimulation of genitals is worthless.
>pure nostalgia porn
You mean it brings nothing new to the table and expects to win over the viewer based on recognition of familiar things? That is why everything Star Wars sucks since Disney bought it
fuck prequels, fuck clone wars, fuck cartoons, and not watching this show. BUT Anakin looks undeniably cool here with his stance, costume and saber flourishes. and the baby alien orange girl looks kinda good too
why would she want to get the opinion of the most corrupted jedi in 1000 years about his training? It would be like asking the police to investigate themselves.
Idk but they should have had Anakin talked to her more and less saber fight. Be like I trained you to be a warrior but now you need to become a master. Be like let go of your fear Ahsoka, if I was able to do so you more than anyone can. And Ahsoka be like but I'm nothing compared to you Master I don't think I'm able to let go. And Anakin be like Snips I didn't train you to be less than me, I always saw you as the best of us now go and save your Padawan. Boom.
Never seen clone wars or rebels, figured I give ahsoka a shot because I liked andor and could tolerate mandalorian. I didn't like the first episodes except for sithfu (yes I know she isn't sith it just mouths better) but I really enjoy this episode (except the syndulla parts). The young ahsoka / anakin stuff was really fun. Kinda made me want to watch the prequals again.

The First Order were remnants of the Empire. The First Order is not the Empire but is framed as the hopeful next iteration of the Empire. The New Republic isn't fighting the First Order, the Resistance is.
I don't know why this is so challenging for you to understand. The movies are not deep or complicated in literally any way.

I feel like the sequels absolutely broke some people's minds with how bad they were, now they just hate Star Wars in general and can't even enjoy these passable shows.
The one and only thing that dumped on Anakin's legacy was ROS by making it so his sacrifice meant nothing and didn't fulfill the prophecy, and that's Abrams shit that everything else has completely ignored
The people making these things very clearly love the shit out of Anakin
What happened? Haven't watched any Star Wars for a while so I don't get the context.
Basically Ahsoka starts out as a sour cunt in her show and then gets the shit beaten out of her by Titus Pullo, which results in her near death and meeting Anakin in some parallel dimension addressing her insecurities concerning her training, assuring her his teachings weren't tainted. She then accepts this, puts on a white robe and becomes much happier in appearance.
Is it a good show? I heard great things about Andor so I'm going to watch that but should I watch this too?
I like it. Stevenson is excellent, his dark Jedi apprentice is cute, lots of lightsaber duels, quality visuals for the most part, Tennant's droid is surprisingly likable and what's also nice is that it feels more lika a movie and less like one of those monster of the week things. The women are somewhat annoying and The New Republic is a bunch of incompetent goofy looking retards but I find that stuff bearable.
>tiktok edits
Fuck cosplayers. ur a gay.
it's trash
the only good thing about it is Ray Stevenson, and he's painfully underused
Jury is still out since it's incomplete, it just had it's best episode but it's still wait-and-see because there's only three episodes left and probably the shows major issue so far had been pacing.
Andor told complete stories with each of it's three episode arcs, Ahsoka might pull off one story with eight.
Andor's just a very good kind of show. It's more "what if someone used Star Wars to make something really good" versus Ahsoka's "what if someone made some pretty decent Star Wars"
No. None of Disney Wars is good. Not one single minute of it. Why would this trash be any different?
Rogue One is good and respects the source material. It also has the best ground and some of the best space battles thanks to Gareth Edwards.
>Rogue One is good
no, its not
>Rogue One is good and respects the source material
LMAO, not it doesn't you fucking liar.
>defecting Imperial engineer purposefully built a flaw into the Death Star specifically for the Rebels to eventually destroy it once they recovered the plans, and the Empire just accepts this
>Jyn Erso is just a Rule 63 Dash Rendar, but with none of the personality
>outside of the sarcastic reddit droid, the rest of the cast is barely memorable (Donnie Yen's just a meme character with no actual impact)
>the ending creates a huge plot hole for the beginning of ANH
It was bog standard goyslop made for cum-guzzling retards like you. Simple as.
Andor is a great spy thriller show. It's got the usual disney slop, but overall it was pretty kino TV for the current era. It's like a proper show with a Star Wars shell on top.
Andor is on a completely different level of quality that Ahsoka doesn't even come close to(Andor actually feels like a real show and not just DUDE STAR WARS) but its still not god awful, the villains do carry it a lot and so far Ahsoka herself is a pretty terrible MC.
The hologram memorial speech was so fucking cringe in andor
no, chud. you were just triggered because there were no lightsabers.
chud here. i liked the lack of lightsabers
what i tell everyone about Andor is that you start out asking why you should care about any of the characters, but it does a very good job at winning you over.
by the end I was quite impressed at how well it all turned out & i remember not caring at all in the beginning
It’s a live action sequel to a children’s cartoon, and the quality of the writing is on par with what you would expect from a children’s cartoon.
Star Wars has been a children's cartoon since 1977, stop pretending like it's some super mature haute-auteur deep introspective art film for adults
Asohka is more Disney shite.
Andor is bizarrely very very good. It feels like it got outsourced to HBO or something. It's completely different in tone and filming in real locations. Andor is the best thing Disney have done with Star Wars. But nobody watched it.
It's okay. There's a general wankery to the whole thing. This most recent episode is a lot more thematically savvy than I expected it to be and is probably one of the better hours Disney has delivered since they bought Lucasfilm (and I'm not a prequelfag nor a TCWfag, lest you think I was bewitched by Christensen showing up).
My biggest issue with this entire show is that it's very obvious it's not going to be much more than the prelude to whatever movie or TV series comes next, because aside from Andor that's been their entire model since The Mandalorian's second season and this show already has far too much to resolve in three episodes.
Like with Obi-wan, I'm forced to wonder why this stuff isn't theatrical movies
It’s the best they’ve delivered so far, which isn’t saying much. Would never pay for Disney slop but it has its moments. The white male sith carries the show. Better than Mandalorian. Haven’t seen Andor yet.
>the one white male actor in Yidney SW who actually gave damn and engaged the audience
>dies quickly irl so he can never do it again
>just noticed that there was only one white male in the entire episode and it was Anakin
>the only time there was a white male in the New Republic it was the dumb captain who died in the first episode
there is also the governor guy from the 1st episode
he looked competent and on top of things
People were lying to you about both. Andor is dogshit with abysmal pacing and hilarious dumb plot points and Ahsoka is no different. Literally the only good parts of the latest episode are the bits with Anakin.
Andor is the only decent thing Star Wars has coughed up since 1983.
Maybe if you're a pure /misc/fag.
I'm not a vile grotesque Cinemaphileermin, so yeah.
Don't pretend like you like Return of the Jedi, Andor is the antithesis to everything ROTJ did
It's possible to like multiple things even when they are different -- maybe not for you, but for normal people.
Of course it's possible, however the fact remains that Trandor fans are exclusively ESB supremacists who despise Return of the Jedi for spoiling their fun with ewoks and killing Boba Fett and letting the rebels win instead of the empire, etc. There is simply no overlap between fans of Blandor and enjoyers of Return of the Jedi, they are mutually exclusive, like the people that enjoy Batman Forever and those that enjoy Batman Begins.
>like the people that enjoy Batman Forever and those that enjoy Batman Begins.
But I love both. Its not that I just hate andor, I hate all yidsney wars. But I do love ESB
>There is simply no overlap between fans of Blandor and enjoyers of Return of the Jedi, they are mutually exclusive
Incorrect.
The only good scenes are anytime Stevenson or the little blonde are on screen, everyone else is awful. The wop/chink is tolerable but only because she’s the first fuckable female Disneys cast in 8 years.
It's trash like everything else Disney Star Wars
The only good things to watch from NuWars:
>Rogue One
>Andor
>Mandalorian S1/2
>Ahsoka (for now)
Rebels is much, much better than Andor or Rogue One
Andor must be fucking terrible then.
look at this opinion
that should tell you everything you need to know about the quality of Andor: that its enjoyed exclusively by prequel-hating RLMfags
Why do incels love the prequels so much?
>incels
Blandor is trash and you are a leftist freak (ugly).
not that anon and also not an incel but i liked the prequels
>that its enjoyed exclusively by prequel-hating RLMfags
Oh, it's you again, kek
RLM liked Force Awakens.
Which, again, should tell you everything you need to know about the quality of Andor.
The only thing you've demonstrated is that you're a brainlet.
It's a solid 7/10

I missed this too, my sides
A couple of chromosomes
If you like a show that is about 5% Star Wars and 95% some guy bumbling about the galaxy doing boring drawn out shit where barely anything intersting happens. Recommend skipping to the prison episodes since at least that's visually stunning and THX1138-like interesting.
No, it's really bad. Basically it's by a guy who is responsible for children's star wars cartoons and now he's doing live action.
>But Lucas did children's movies
He did Indiana Jones and THX 1138. Not even remotely relevant.
Yes, watch Andor. It's the only good thing that's come from the Disney buyout.
>watch Andor
neAndorthals are the biggest gays on /misc/ and that's saying a lot
>not even remotely relevant
so is bringing up these entirely unrelated-to-star-wars movies
Why do you have this crusade against anything that can be construed as "immature" by professional fartsniff- I mean critics?
>Why do you have this crusade against anything that can be construed as "immature" by professional fartsniff- I mean critics?
The tardbase here is neither. Lewis didn't say that bullcrap writing is good. He said that fancy and wonder is good for the soul proved fancy and wonder directs a mind to good. MLP, nuWars, and a host of others are just shit.
>I'm a jaded burnout who hates anything that isn't edgy, therefore it's shit
>fancy and wonder is good for the soul proved fancy and wonder directs a mind to good. MLP, nuWars, and a host of others are just shit.
>These things I don't like don't have fancy and wonder because...because I say so!
very compelling argument
>Is it a good show?
No, but the recent episode spontaneously """redeemed""" it because "MUH HECKIN' CLONE WARS KINORINO" memberberries. /misc/'s been undergoing an influx of discord chud astroturfers over the past 24 hours, but it'll wear off in the next couple of days once they get their checks. It's still a feminist power fantasy through and through.
>I heard great things about Andor
only reason Andor was good was cause the Dave Filoni retard OP praises had nothing to do with its production.
>Andor was good
>Andor was good
yes
was good
>yes
Why even block his name? I can already tell from his pic that he looks like a garden gnome.

don't know if he's garden gnome but here ya go
Ah, he's a Hispanic.
nvrmnd
could still be a garden gnome mutt however
Andor is good, yes.
>Andor is good, yes.
Yeah.
If it wasn't for the Imperial Officer hat, I never would've known this was Star Wars. Seriously, why is that dyke-looking bitch carrying what looks like a WWII-esque AK-47 in a another galaxy that's supposed to have advanced alien tech? Fiction is supposed to be escapism, not a place for hack writers to insert their reddit-tier agendas. Missed me with that shit.
>picrel
I don't like Andor but I really can't bring myself to be offended by these props.
And what this does have to do with Rian?
His treatment of Luke. The visual cues are there, notably with the island and the water in the top image.
But what does Ahsoka have to do with The Last Jedi? How is he "shitting on Rian"? I think you're just seeing things. Rian literally taught Filoni how to direct live-action.
The way a character gets treated. Structurally Ahsoka has similar ingredients to the sequels, like the map leading to an enemy in hiding in the first episode, like her being downtrodden and low on faith. Everything is just done with more care.
i can see it, but it's also thousands of years deep in the foundations of western mythology. it's always an easy way to give the impression of significance and doesn't have to be calling out to anything star wars in particular.
Sure but even if it wasn't intentional on Dave's end, it's still there.
Not the anon you replied to, but maybe something like "treating old characters in a good way and not like the sequel movies"
>I dislike the sequels therefore they treated the characters poor
Ok anon.
NTA, other way around. I dislike them primarily because they treat the characters I give a shit about so poorly.
Yeah I also hated Luke inspiring the galaxy to fight against the First Order.
Don't you have people on twitter to scream MUH DEEEEEEEEEEEEK at Rian?
I bet you also hate testosterone and your own father.
And it does it by doing to most powerful use of the Force ever seen on screen, at that
bro please, everything Starkiller did was more impressive than dying after one fucking astral projection
>bro please, everything Starkiller did was more impressive than dying after one fucking astral projection
Non-canon video game Mary Sues don't count.
I assure you, doing a video Skype call is not a powerful use of the Force.
I'm so glad we have you, a certified Force expert, in this thread.
I think he could have done a better job of that by probably not dying, letting 3 other highly populated worlds get annihilated, or trying to murder his nephew
All of lukes inspiring the galaxy came from the OT gay, kys
this shot is really interesting because even though it was clearly shown it was so bizarre that many people couldn't even consciously process it.
what couldn't be processed was the character assassination being perpetrated
>Your old male role models suck and you have to worship our Mary Sue, chud.
>Nooooo, you can’t give Luke a great and fitting scene in Mandalorian.
If I had been in Hamel's shoes at the moment he was told to milk a giant tittied space camel and take a big ole swig, I would have told Rian to go fuck himself and walked out of the production forever.
Another man child without a male role model in his life raised by a single mom.
That was all Lando.
>the First Order
I, to this day, do not know who those guys were.
remnants of the empire. the first thing they had to do to reclaim power was restore order. hence, first, order.
So the New Republic decided to ignore a whole ass portion of the Empire?
In the same way that the Empire "decided" to "ignore" a whole ass potion of the Republic/Rebels, yes.
Stop being an idiot.
The Empire was fighting the rebels. Leia and whoever she was fighting with had to go on a personal vendetta against the first order without the Republic: this is spelled out in the movie. These are not the same.
And I've watched all the nuWars shit. What I didn't and won't do is google "who were the first order?"
>And I've watched all the nuWars shit.
Why?
Trying to figure out who the First Order were?
it’s been explained. fuck off.
In the movies? Why would the Republic ignore an obvious existential threat? What was the explanation? Did I miss it?
Are you one of those people who needs everything spelled out for them? It's clear that the First Order is the next iteration of the Empire.
So why was the Repubic ignoring them?
Why do you think they're ignoring them?
bc none of the people fighting them are directly associated with the republic, again one of the few things the movies actually tell us.
>wtf why is the League of Nations not doing anything about this Third Reich
>real life has such bad writing
Well, in real life, the financers of the League of Nations (US and UK) were doing economically poorly and utilized the German liberation of the "Free City of Danzing" (95% German, under League possession, administered by Poland) as a justification of the most profitable of activities: war.
Real life writing is pretty sensible.
Trying to deal with canon in these mega franchises is a fool's errand at this point. Star Trek probably had the most bloated canon of any franchise by the year 2000, but writers delt with it by always moving into the future and giving a wide berth to prior events. This constant sequel/prequel/inbetween-qeul is unmanageable.
If they had any sense, they'd just write whatever was fun and take a alternative history approach.
>This constant sequel/prequel/inbetween-qeul is unmanageable
To be fair Star Wars has a uniquely terrible track record. The PT had plenty of room and it still fucked up everything.
That's what I'll never get. The 15-20 years between PT and OT effectivity turn the Empire and Palpatine into a historical footnote.
>the 12 years between 1933-1945 turn Hitler and the Third Reich into an historical footnote
glad nobody remembers them, right?
They don't. The average shlep's notion of the 20th century interbellum period and WW2 is: the Germans elected a particularly autistic evil dude, big fight, and some garden gnomes got toasted, then everything went back to normal.
This is, of course, ridiculous.
>the Republic elected a particularly autistic evil dude, big fight, and some Alderaanians got toasted, then everything went back to normal.
It's like pottery.
they need to use the world between worlds to undo the events of the disney trilogy and remove it all from canon
That's not what I said though
You forgot the part where the entire scene with Anakin is barely conveyed, filled with platitudes and masturbatory flashbacks. I see exactly what Dave was trying to do and he fucked up big time. Not only is the process unconvincing, the show makes zero effort to show us she has a problem to begin with, barring her acting stoic and a throwaway line from the antagonist. She never makes a fatal mistake that we as an audience can attribute to her attitude. We never get to intimately suffer with her. Filoni is such a dogshit writer and I’d say someone needs to reel him in but the rest suck too.
I agree it was messy but I appreciate the attempt. Her focusing on being raised as a warrior and overly associating the war with Anakin's fall and thus rejecting his teachings and being insecure and lacking the will to fight things through was overall a bit contrived, especially considering, as you said, she never seemed to be in a super low place and that unwilling to fight in the first place.
Right, but we can convince ourselves anything is good if we think hard enough. The problem is even The Clone Wars - a cartoon for babies - didn’t coast by on goodwill from the audience for simply attempting to tell a, by any metric, standard character story. This is supposed to be the canonizing of that cartoon into the live action big leagues and it’s pure slop.
I never treat Filoni stuff as anything other than fanfic, I'm a Genndyfag myself but since the brand keeps going and is seemingly irreplacable (Snyder won't be able to do it), I'll be positive about it when I see them going in the right directon.
We're reaching midwittery levels that shouldn't be possible
None of those posts are midwit. Those are valid takes on a low quality filler series. This show, and your post, certainly are midwit though.
you’re a midwit
>no u
Dank
You guys are missing the context of her initial struggle. It's not about fighting the bad guys, it's about her willingness to fully commit to training Sabine. She already ran away from it once, and even now she was keeping her at arm's length. It's because of what Baylan was immediately able to sense from her, that she was only part of a legacy of death and destruction.
>t's about her willingness to fully commit to training Sabine
Sabine isn't even force sensitive. With the Empire all but defeated, it can't be hard for Ahsoka to find a force sensitive Padawan to take on. She could even join with Luke.
She should obviously train Hera's fucking mutt kid.
>meeting Anakin in some parallel dimension addressing her insecurities
So basically Furloni did pic related?
I know it's probably something more in depth in the cartoon, but yeah, Ahsoka died, spent time with Anakin in Force Heaven, and now came back with a new light
Delusional. Just more Filoni shitting on Lucas' films and making retarded garbage that appeals only to himself.
>happier in appearance
she looks like a fucking pyschopath with soulless eyes smiling like a fucking nutjob about to eat you or some shit.
im still confused, did she actually die and came back to life? was she just unconscious the whole time in the water and dreamed of anakin? or was she teleported to the other dimension and brought back by the force or sum shieez
She was having a Near Death Experience, and NDEs are real and prove that there is an afterlife and that we are eternal and will go to heaven unconditionally when we die. And NDErs talk about how we wanted to come here and that the meaning of life is to learn to love and be kind and thrive here despite how hard it is in this world. So life is like going to Harvard. Tough, but our choice, to learn from.
And NDEs are more real than life. One way this manifests is how much better and more intense the feelings are there. As one woman remarked:
>"So I went into the light, and as I was moving up into the light, I just started to feel so good. You know like I can't, words can't explain it. Like the higher that I went into the light, and the more that I moved up and further away from Earth, the better I felt. And the feeling of pleasure does not really apply to this Earth, like nothing can compare. Like if you took everything that you were in favor of, like maybe getting a massage, in a hot tub, your favorite music, your favorite food, your favorite drink, everything that you love, happening to you all at once, no matter what it is, all at once, it would not even closely compare to the pleasure that was just within that light. And as you moved further into, like further away from this Earth, the pleasure felt even better. So you just moved up it felt better and better, it was insane."
From here: https://youtu.be/U00ibBGZp7o
And the NDE convinces everyone who has it, even hardcore skeptics, according to this: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mysteries-consciousness/202204/does-afterlife-obviously-exist
So this argument is literally airtight, irrefutable proof of an afterlife, because we know now that the NDE will convince anyone, no matter how skeptical they may be.
>prove that there is an afterlife
No they dont. They prove nothing of the sort. The fact people have similar experiences is because we all have shared structures in the brain, simple as.
>source: my ass
Oh? You think your brain comes from a different source than everyone elses? Read a real book for once in your life gay
You seem a bit upset anon, maybe you should start by disproving NDEs before getting mad
>Just disprove my metaphysics argument!
The burden of proof is on you retard. And your sources are about as reputable as retards who all claim to have been Cleopatra in a past life.
wow you are really fucking braindead aren’t you
says the person who believes near death hallucinations are proof of an afterlife. How will I ever recover?
I accept your concession
no, you accept metaphysics as answers. simpleton that you are
Yet here you are, not countering any of the arguments made, multiple anons have discredited your sweeping statements about metaphysical phenomena and you’ve revealed yourself to be profoundly stupid. Honestly it’s very funny how angry and stupid you sound

Are you really going to deny infrared and ultraviolet just because we can't see them? lmao, peak logical positivist brainrot
No, I'm denying that anything exists even though we can see it.
Are you a bot or just really dedicated? I've seen you post this on multiple boards, from Cinemaphile to /misc/ for months now
Actually I'm not the original NDE schizo, but I've seen his posts all over Cinemaphile where I lurk and I just found it a funny excuse to post an obnoxious copypasta and hoped it would garner lots of (you)s

How?
Dave and Rian both are gays.
How the fuck is Luke Frodo? The last scene of RotJ is Luke smiling and laughing with all his friends and giving a nod to the ghosts.
ROTJ isn't the end of Luke's story
It is as far as I'm concerned with Disneywars.
>The last scene of RotJ is Luke smiling and laughing with all his friends and giving a nod to the ghosts.
Well, thanks to Disney we all know how that comes out.
>for the rest of his life is plagued with fear

>these aren't characters that go and get married
Yeah, he literally did
The fact that she fights people in 3 separate shows prior to her own, and in 4 episodes of her own show leading up to this one makes the whole "You need to be willing to fight" thing feel redundant and like fixing a problem that didn't exist.
Like it would have had more impact of the show had actually gone into her character's misgivings about her training under Anakin instead of the fallout between Ahsoka and her Padawan happening off screen in favor her doing flips in space to slice ships in half.
Exactly. It was trying to be profound when there was never anything for it to be profound about. This entire show feels completely unearned and out of nowhere. We have zero build up or backstory to the villains or what they want. We have no idea why anyone would think or believe Thrawn and Ezra are still alive, and in another galaxy. You would simply assume dead because, well, they've been gone for like 10-15 years. This nonsense is trying to exist in a vacuum to excuse it's weak pace and writing, yet there is no vacuum.
And then introducing Nightsister Morgan who definitely didn't act like a Nightsister in her initial appearance or look like a female Dathomirian who also somehow has a connection to Thrawn.
>"When gone I am, last of the jedi will you be"
Whoops I'm sorry Yoda, now there's dozens of lighsaber swinging gays running around calling themselves dark jedi, former jedi, jedi in training, etc.

Underrated
At the risk of taking this post too seriously, the Jedi are followers of a specific creed, not merely force users. Pretty much everyone else running around at the time had either stopped following the code or was tapping into dark side stuff. Yoda and Kenobi were pretty pronounced dogmatists.
>the jedi who survived all lost their way
>Luke was the only one strong enough to carry on the jedi legacy
kino
Even George said like 150 of them escaped the Purge
Difference is Yoda and Obi-wan believed in keeping the Orders lights on, everyone else went into survival mode or stopped being Jedi
You joyless mother fuckers. This episode was pure nostalgia porn, and it was great.
I'd be happy to see them re-united if this just didn't look so fucking bad and amateurish. And if this wasn't part of Yidsney.
Filoni's not very good at directing live action. The clones looked goofy, which could've probably been avoided with a lower camera angle.
“nostalgia porn” and “great” are mutually exclusive.
Funny how the live action actors are all too incompetent to hold the saber backhand.
more like when someone tries it in real life it instantly becomes clear how weak and slow and ineffective it is
No one cares, it looks cool.
>Fog covering up everything
>This episode was pure nostalgia porn, and it was great.
I genuinely hope that someone beats you to death.
The fog is there to remind the viewer how retarded they are for thinking this is good. Its a real masterwork
yep, the fog and lack of droid warfare stopped this episode from being great
What military tactic are they employing here?
Looks like the suicide shuffle to me
the "FOR THE REPUBLIC!" one
visceral star wars combat and initiative based conflicts with invasions, tug-of-war and distinct phases of pitched battles died with revenge of the sith. the entire engineering aspect of the military vehicles in SW has been long forgotten and the writers of these shows don't know how to make satisfying combat scenes. its just lightsaber duels and hero ships being chased by a couple TIE fighters for the foreseeable future. this is the post-game of thrones sci-fi hell.
>visceral star wars combat and initiative based conflicts with invasions, tug-of-war and distinct phases of pitched battles died with revenge of the sith.
It's remarkable how well they play out in revenge of the sith considering they were basically background noise, and yet they're still followable.
Kashyyk, Utapau, then all of the order 66 ones the battles were hardly even necessary, and yet they were still more interesting and dynamic than anything disney has done in 10 years.
CIS extermination
A daylight charge over the minefield, it's the last they they'd expect.
looks like a bolshivik move of being sent into oncoming fire until ammo depletes
Gotta establish the run game
Did it ever occur to you that "nostalgia porn" is not a good thing? Because it isn't. You are a mindless consumer. This serves no purpose. It is reductive of Star Wars, George Lucas' actual films and story, the thing you claim to love but are really just a slave to that Disney continues to milk. There is no justification for this to exist, it adds and accomplishes nothing other than making idiots like you clap like seals for your daily fish.
>Nostalagia porn for non movie cartoon shit
Kys zoomer
I'm still not watching this show but Im happy to see Hayden back as Anakin
>nostalgia porn
I dont want "nostalgia porn", I want actual decent new content that just doesnt remind me of better content made 30 years ago.
Also clone wars came out when I was like 20 and I couldnt give less of a fuck about some dogshit cartoon made by a bunch of losers.
Ok.
>le nostalgia
The Clone Wars was garbage.
Nice
They should have spent at least 2 episodes on this. They could have taken their time and really done a more believable development. It was good, but it could have been way better. As it's presented she shows up, Anakin says a little bit, and then the conclusion is just "Ahsoka needs to fight." The only reason it was even remotely good was because of the source material it's drawing from and the fact it had Hayden and that little kid who was actually a really good child actor. The actual delivery of it was pretty superficial, shallow, Disney trash. It was nostalgia porn, but that's all it was when it could have been that and a ton more.
Funny how Ahsoka becomes a good show when it stops being about Sabine and focuses on the titular character instead.
Even funnier how Ahsoka becomes a good character when she's played by someone who's actually trying to act
I never watched them kids clone wars cartoons so I don't care.
She's wearing a goofy hat.
she's 18 right
15
I wish coomers' ( doorfuckers, lqbtq and broneys) dicks would all explode.
This is modern "sexuality" writ large. Here is a man with a healthy body choosing to fuck a door. He is not much separated from health men who choose to fuck anuses or mouths. Not much separated from women who "fuck" each other. None of this is sex. Sex is sex. Worthless stimulation of genitals is worthless.
>pure nostalgia porn
You mean it brings nothing new to the table and expects to win over the viewer based on recognition of familiar things? That is why everything Star Wars sucks since Disney bought it
fuck prequels, fuck clone wars, fuck cartoons, and not watching this show. BUT Anakin looks undeniably cool here with his stance, costume and saber flourishes. and the baby alien orange girl looks kinda good too

>and she was a good friend
So close to Padawan Sex Kitten. Shame we got the tights and didn't get the belly shirt. Filbroni probably couldn't try that with a straight face.
>Lucas forced Filoni to dress Ahsoka like a whore early on in the clone wars
kek imagine his rage
why would she want to get the opinion of the most corrupted jedi in 1000 years about his training? It would be like asking the police to investigate themselves.
He repented.
Ohhhhh, guess Ill take the child murderers word now!
Lucas really shouldn't have included the child killing part. It's the one thing even some IRL murderers draw the line at.
Those five year olds were viscous, man.
Little shit shouldn't have dissed him with that "Master Skywalker" dig.
They didn't show actual killings
And they just turned most of them into sith inquisitors
>imblygin no sepratist children ever died in the clone wars before 66
Imagine cockroaches with lightsabers and you will see he was justified in his actions.
because he got to go to space heaven, they don’t let bad guys into space heaven, duh stupid anon
He's the literal Chosen One
That would be Rey, chud.
>a hack shitting on another hack
Like poetry.
Idk but they should have had Anakin talked to her more and less saber fight. Be like I trained you to be a warrior but now you need to become a master. Be like let go of your fear Ahsoka, if I was able to do so you more than anyone can. And Ahsoka be like but I'm nothing compared to you Master I don't think I'm able to let go. And Anakin be like Snips I didn't train you to be less than me, I always saw you as the best of us now go and save your Padawan. Boom.
>fat
EVERY.FUCKING.SCENE.
You guys told me this was going to retcon the sequel trilogy.
That was before the Rey film announcement. Prease give it a billion box office revenue.
>pic
Is this from a new SW show?
It's cosplay based on concept art for A New Hope
are those thrawn troopers or something like that
are you guys dumb or something
n-no
>ERMAHGERD!!! ARE THOSE LE HECKIN' MCQUARRIE REFERENCES?!!!! SO FUCKIN' KINO AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Is it true that everyone who posts wojacks looks like one?
I LOVE ANAKIN AND EVERYTHING ANAKIN RELATED
Andor is the only good SW since the OT
Looks like an Oompa Loompa with those white eyebrow tats
It's so lazy that they didn't give Ahsoka the Shaak Ti horns she's supposed to have at that age.
Don't tell the internet they're best friends and that Filoni loved TLJ and learned how to shoot through it.
this sounds like Filoni wishing he could have been behind the camera to prevent what RJ did
>bergman

>block a scene
I suspect the current generation of directors literally do not know what this phrase means.
Never seen clone wars or rebels, figured I give ahsoka a shot because I liked andor and could tolerate mandalorian. I didn't like the first episodes except for sithfu (yes I know she isn't sith it just mouths better) but I really enjoy this episode (except the syndulla parts). The young ahsoka / anakin stuff was really fun. Kinda made me want to watch the prequals again.
its nothing like the prequels
Is it weird that ghost Anakin didn't ask about Luke?
Is it weird that Ashoka didn't mention Luke?
Not really.
Disney doesn't like Luke
Nah. I'm sure hes spoken to Luke a significant amount already by now, and we already know Luke and Ahsoka are in contact
Kathleen Kennedy doesn't want Luke to appear in Disney Wars.
Kathleen Kennedy is a god damn mess, but also an inspiration. It's incredible how someone can be a complete pile of shit at their job, but through amassing so much dirt, cutting so many throats, and parasitizing upcoming competition, they can rise to the highest echelons imaginable. She's an inspiration for every Laws of Power worshiping psychopath out there.
both had dumb moments, I've never seen anyone defend EU palpatine clones
really I've never seen anyone defend the sequel trilogy outside of ledditors replying to criticism with "ackshually I loved it!!!!!" then they can't explain why
If you think people who dissed the EU are the same as the people praising Disney you're a moron.
Bro im usually not very critical but holy shit this show is garbage
test
did it work?
No
So Ahsoka finds a drug rug and becomes a hippie.
are you all ready for the wave of NEW ai art that is too cum after this?
ok… that was the purpose of TRoS too. Still irredeemable garbage
The First Order were remnants of the Empire. The First Order is not the Empire but is framed as the hopeful next iteration of the Empire. The New Republic isn't fighting the First Order, the Resistance is.
I don't know why this is so challenging for you to understand. The movies are not deep or complicated in literally any way.
Okay, but... what is the "first order"? Unexplained to this day.

Not only will you never be a woman, you will always have a tiny hat.

Ahsoka, starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead's ass
I feel like the sequels absolutely broke some people's minds with how bad they were, now they just hate Star Wars in general and can't even enjoy these passable shows.
Based post. Fuck Rian Johnson. I want him dead. Filoni is the only way forward.
it's kino and I'm tired to pretend it's not
lmao I love how Disney continues to shit on Anakin's legacy despite his redemption at the end of ROTJ.
Explain how this shit on Anakin’s legacy. It clearly didn’t.
The one and only thing that dumped on Anakin's legacy was ROS by making it so his sacrifice meant nothing and didn't fulfill the prophecy, and that's Abrams shit that everything else has completely ignored
The people making these things very clearly love the shit out of Anakin
This episode wasn't even nostalgia porn for me because I haven't and won't watch the poorly animated childrens cartoon. So it was just good tv.
