Ezra using the force as his only weapon is one of the most interesting ideas I’ve seen come out of Disney Star Wars. With nothing to do but deepen his connection to the force, it would’ve been a cool way to show some new techniques. Imagine him jumping around and blowing people away, knocking blasters out of enemy hands and telepathically throwing a boulder their way. Genuinely sad they backtracked on this concept. I guess having a unique idea that fits in perfectly to the Star Wars mythos takes a back seat to nostalgia.
Yeah but that won't happen because he's male if this character was originally female then basically what we would have gotten is God like character but because he's male he's pathetic and weak
I would've even wanted to see his relationship with Sabine get more focus, even hoping for a romantic relationship. Trying to make them like brother and sister is just not believable nor does it seem to be interesting. Considering how long they've known each other, it would be a nice twist for Sabine to be the one trying to flirt with Ezra this time around in a sort of role reverasal. It would make their interactions more interesting and fun to watch. Instead we get a massive confusing relationship where I feel FIloni is trying to find an excuse not to go into too much detail on it and it sorta ruins the point.
I’m really starting to wonder what’s going on at Disney whenever it comes to Star Wars. Writer 1:*gives an idea*. Writer 2:Uh, guys, that doesn’t line up with the rest of the franchise. Writer 1:Did anyone hear that?
Don’t you remember REEEEEva from Kenobi, Gio? She got stabbed not once in that series but twice with a lightsaber and survived both times, because Disney and the current iteration of Lucasfilm don’t have a clue.
When is Disney EVER going to listen to reason? As the great Sith Lord Thanos once said..."You SHOULDA gone for the head!"...it worked for Anakin with Dooku lol
"because they dont have a clue," or in other words (and maybe worse) because of their insistance on placing women in the forefront of new star wars media and never putting those protagonists in situations which they are criticised or reflected poorly upon, over their intent to just create a good story. Not a lib-cel-right-wing conspiracy, but Kathleen Kennedy's openly spoken agenda - you can find many interviews online.
It’s weird how in some of these Disney shows seem to sideline their main characters for some reason. Like they are only there to draw in views so that way they can tell their own story.
for me, I've been working on my own story about a fantasy world a la D&D, I have the ruff draw of the 21st chapter done and am just proof reading. Working on it I have a main character and then the rest of the cast but in tears, MC whom is the main way the reader sees the world, Demi-MCs whom are the other cast like Axel who is the town that the MC's in sheriff or Marylan, an old friend and sister like team mate to the MC ect ect, lastly are the back ground who are like Lyra a bar keep that is a confidant to MC or Himmel a blacksmith. working on my stories I started to have some chapters work on the MC while also hinting or showing the other cast but then have some stories follow the others whole sail. It's a balancing act but I have to say one thing, even though I love writing MC but I also love doing stuff with Axel or Mrvona, a life goddess and sometimes I fall down a pit working on a story for them while forgetting to work on MC.
I loved Rebels. This was advertised as Rebels Season 5, but it was really more like Rebels season 5 if they took an episode, dragged out a 20 minute episode for an hour, got rid of most of the main characters, developed them without telling the viewer, and isn't nearly as good as Rebels in general.
I don’t know why it took me so long to realize this but the gold sphere puzzle ball that turns into a holographic map is literally straight out of Treasure Planet.
Qui gon Jin was stab in the stomach and he didn't live. So, I am not sure how that makes sense. also, light sabers are hot enough to cut though metal. I'm pretty sure if the stab wound didn't kill her blood boiling inside of her would have, especially with how long the blade was held there.
It's funny they hired the actress that played Aeryn in Farscape, (a fantastic sci-fi series) and that show even had a perfect example of how Thrawn should be, in their character Scorpius. But this version of Thrawn is no where close and wishes he was anything like Scorpius!
I've read the old Thrawn books and he was incredibly smart. This version of Thrawn is like a stupid person's attempt at pretending to be smart. He keeps screwing up and just goes "Aha. It's all part of the plan!" The smartest person alive even forgot to lock the damn doors in the tower... Ahsoka and the others loklcked the doors from the inside to slow down the zombies chasing them! I know lightsabers cut doors but it still takes time. If they aren't fast enough they'll eventually be cornered and overrun. At least Ezra wouldn't have made it onto the destroyer... Thrawn could have even bombarded the tower while they were inside. It served no further purpose at that point and would have stopped or even killed them!
The lightsaber stab _could have_ worked, if they had shown her just BARELY survive after quickly getting rushed to the hospital bed (and clearly explain that she was lucky to have survived at all), and actually developed that into part of a character arc where she deals the the phycological trauma of such an injury, and learns that her training is a lot more important than she first realized. But of course... that's giving them too much credit.
"It's a puzzle cube that leads her to Ezra." Pretty sure they did that whole puzzle map thing with Luke in the sequels. That's amazing how they recycle their own plot material.
I've got my own theory: Disney doesn't know how (or doesn't want to) do any space opera. But they have this immensely popular franchise, and they need to exploit it, so they keep making stories in other genres, then giving them the trappings of Star Wars stories. The Mandalorian? It was great, mostly, but it wasn't space opera; it was a western. Put the Man with No Name next to Din Djarin, and he fits right in. Ashoka? Ashoka is either a fairy tale, or a DnD campaign; pretty sword & sorcery either way. And so on, and so forth. If I need a space opera fix, I'll go re-read Schlock Mercenary; that webcomic goes hard especially towards the end when all the story lines wrap up.
18:33, Before I go any further, I giggled at the microphone on a knife. 0:27, 3:35, 6:07, 11:52, 12:47, “Hollow” is this best way to describe this show. My biggest gripe with it was that even when things were happening, each episode still felt largely uneventful, tensionless and sometimes outright boring. 2:10, Like a lot of things in this show, this would only have required a minor change to not appear jarring. I know they have Bacta in this universe (which they already used in Mandalorian Season 1’s finale to immediately heal Din when he gets a fatal head injury), but I wish they showed details of how they managed to save her (such as Ahsoka getting an emergency pack of Bacta from her ship to immediately put on her gut wound and having to do it quickly before it kills her, which would maintain consistency with how Qui Gonn Gin’s gut wound took several minutes to kill him and him saying “It’s too late” implying he died before any medical attention could be given) and that it would take a little more effort for her to either recover. But instead, it focuses a bit needlessly on her doubting her capabilities while she could be focused on trying to find her friend. 16:05, While it is established the Force exists in all living beings and some simply have a higher amount of it that others that they can learn to perceive and manipulate through concentration to varying degrees, having Sabine be taught how to use the Force isn’t really all that necessary to her character. It doesn’t really change her as a person other than now having her be telekinetic (by comparison, Luke Skywalker, someone with a much higher innate Force connection, was barely able to summon his lightsaber hilt when about to be mauled to death by a wampa while Sabine can not only summon Ezra’s lightsaber but also levitate a fully grown person who is falling through the air). Compare this to her stint with the Darksaber, where having to wield it correlated with her being made to face her shame and anger over the Beskar destroying field generator she made for the Empire that they used to subjugate her planet and people. They could have primarily stuck with her primary conflict being her grief and desperation to reunite with Ezra after the lose of her people potentially endangering the entire galaxy when she gives Thrawn the means to return from Peridia. Instead, she and Ezra greet each other like they’ve only missed a few months of time together and that’s it. No emotion, no struggle, no conflict, just another action setpiece and Ahsoka needlessly wastes her time fighting Baylan when she could have kept flying to reach Sabine and Ezra to save them from the death squad Thrawn sent after them.
"Ahsoka" is just proof that Feloni can't write for shit. He can produce and showrunner well (when he had Lucas talking into his ear), but without someone to reign him in, he can only make a warmed-over turd.
One problem... they already established that Sabine isn't force sensitive. Given her lack of training combined with that fact, it makes pretty much no logical sense. It didn't feel earned.
I liked the show but it did feel as you said hollow. Baylen was my favorite character and they didn't do anything in the final episode with him. RIP Ray Stevenson. Not to mention i'm not mad about your explanation about Sabine using the force too quickly. The feeling is mutual. Same goes for lightsaber damage=just a scratch. Downgrading the effects of lightsabers gets on my nerves.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video even though I only saw like half of Ahsoka episode 1. I have no interest in actually seeing it since I predicted it would be a lot of what you described. TBH, I've been very unsure about Ahsoka as a character for like a year now. I don't just mean in the Disney stuff, I'm also not positively sure if Ahsoka was ever a good character to begin with. People I talked to online gave a lot of criticisms on how Ahsoka was poorly written in TCW and how she's constantly a mary sue that Filoni keeps alive. Now I haven't rewatched TCW for over two years and I don't have a hate bone for Ahsoka right now, but it's hard for me to dismiss these criticisms after I learned how out of touch Filoni is with Star Wars and that he's still using her a cash cow. Either way, this show is clearly another dumpster fire from Disney and it's apparent Ahsoka should've had a send off a long time ago.
Despite thinking of myself as a critical thinker, I found myself unable to get stuck up in the issues with this show and really, really enjoyed it despite its flaws. I am likely the target audience for the nostalgia baiters at DisLucasfilm as I grew up watching the clone wars. Here was the positive spin I put on it (which probably requires a background understanding/certain perspective on the behind-the-scenes drama with Filoni, KK, Iger, etc) - Sabine's sudden force use seems like a forced inclusion by Kennedy. Whether or not you agree with her stated agenda to place women in the forefront of new star wars media, its not some conspiracy but rather her simple business strategy. Kennedy is currently Filoni's boss and thus she has the final say. This show, for me, was a perfect middle ground in which Filoni was able to put his own substance in, despite having to wrestle with a boss who would never allow Ezra to display negative emotions like anger or skepticism towards our female protagonist, for example. With the way things are planned for the future, Kennedy's new Rey movie appears to be her "prove it or lose it" project to Disney's CEO - being that if like the sequels it fails financially, her job will be handed to someone else, most likely being either Jon Favreu or Filoni himself. And hinging on this big if, this could lead to a second season of Ahsoka that most fans will find much more entertaining/easier to swallow. Anyway my 2 cents xD
I’m very happy you’re going to be increasing the frequency of your uploads! Love your content, man! I watch your videos while knowing nothing about Star Wars lol
14:34 I.. so you’re telling me two force MASTERS couldn’t stop& crush two tie fighters mid air!? Like I’m not saying they need to be starkiller but we literally in rebels See Ezra do so crazy ass shit like that as a kid! You’d think that mfer could throw a mountain if he wanted to.
I just noticed that Erza wore the stormtrooper outfit who was a zombie so he must have been stinking, he decided he was going to take off his helmet in front of Hera? Man, the smell didn't bother you at all during the trip?
Sabine being stabbed in the gut was so dumb! This is fucking Star Wars! Cut off her hand, and no one will question why she is all good in the next scene. Sure, losing limbs is a Star Wars trope. But, it's a trope that makes more sense than the new trope of living through gut shots by a lightsaber.
They are great at making their own story less compelling. Light sabers dont kill , their big bad struggles with an untrained Rey , their Jedi Master acts like a forgettful old man , Luke Skywalker doesn't feel like leaving his island etc... I jumped off after Obi Wan
My point of the worst point of this show is after Sabine gave up the map. The first two episodes could have been skipped easily. The two main leads actually faced a challenge and everyone was excited at seeing an action with consequences. Then... They flat out ignore it. Seriously they could have had her get slapped by a storm trooper and hauled onto the star ship like a sack of potatoes and nothing would have changed from the overall script. The made her take one action which could be considered good or bad depending on your point of view... Value family or doom them to safeguard the galaxy... And then swept it underneath the rug where there are clear points where it felt like they had planned for it to get addressed before the writers were beaten with the stupidity stick. Can't let the females face any hardship or be seen with any possible flaw... Even if it makes them a better character! Seriously Ashoka who chose to repress her emotions showed more emotion or care about Ezra than the person who sold out the galaxy, left her master for dead, and joined the evil space empire for a taxi ride... Didn't say or do anything to ensure the script would run right past it so she looks perfect with no flaws. That's the problem with Disney Star Wars live action... By refusing to let anything happen to their female characters and insisting they are the leads... Nothing happens!
The lightsaber hand off is terrible because within that same fight, Ezra picks up a weapon because turns out he's not that good at hand to hand, THEN he also builds another lightsaber, because i guess the parts are just laying around. It makes no sense. The writers just put in stuff people would like to see without a thread of logic connecting them.
I'm just gonna use years here, I'll leave the "BBY" and "ABY" stuff to the hardcore fans because for me(a casual SW fan) it is just plain confusing.... So in years: The Rebels epilogue takes place five years after RotJ(I'm gonna assume that it wasn't too long after the siege of Lothal because Hera was pregnant at that time, and Jacen appears to be around five during the Rebels epilogue) , which is where we see Sabine become Ahsoka's apprentice. Looks like about a year goes by when The Night of 1000 Tears happens on Mandalore, killing Sabine's family. It is most likely at this point that Ahsoka and Sabine part ways as Ahsoka feared that Sabine would turn dark. Another four years passes and that is where the Ahsoka series begins. So it looks like Ahsoka had only been training her for a year before she decided to abandon her. I don't know.... This series didn't expalin their relationship that well! If the Ahsoka series would have been about developing the relationship between Ahsoka and Sabine rather than leaving the viewers in the dark... the perhaps it would have been a better series! Also, in regards to how Sabine could force push Ezra, well I kind of have a theory that she may have had a little help, I kind of figure that perhaps Anakin's force ghost helped her out... that might be a bit of a stretch, but it makes a crap ton more sense than her using it like a pro in just a few minutes!
Sabine surviving the lightsaber does make sense if Shin know Ahsoka was coming. If she saw Sabine dead she’d angrily chase Shin. If Sabine was dying Ahsoka would rush her to hospital and Shin escapes. Show still sucked.
I am not surprised. Every Disney SW project is just another soulless cash grab. I used to like Ashoka, but now she has become overexposed. Like Harley Quinn, her popularity has ruined her. Happy New Year Gi. Please keep up the great content.
Tf is up with all of these maps in the movies and shows. It didn’t work all that well for the last Jedi because of how damn stupid that whole thing is. Oh I put this map within the galaxy so if somebody needs me they can find me to I came here on this island to die. I’m not interested in this show in the slightest because of the map plot.
Damn bro, your comedic writing has improved over time, for sure, this was a killer script 😂 proud of you bro, can't wait to see what you got in 2024! 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Ya know what if they made mark red death and instead of khione Kaitlyn’s just dead and he wants to bring her back as a means to get to frost but since he can’t do that he tries to use something like velocity 9 and the speed force to go back in time to save her and he ends up becoming red death and attracts the negative speed force out of a want for revenge and grief for his loss
If this Series was Animated with the Original Actors that Voice the Character, it would’ve be Fine as Star Wars current Strength is Animated Series, but instead we got a Confusing Souless Mess I don’t understand what is happening Half of the Time, Rosario Dawson was terribly Miscast as Ahsoka Tano that I get Bored Watching Her, Sabine felt like the Main Character instead of he Master and while I have little Memory on Rebels, I’m pretty sure that’s not how the Character should be and honestly she doesn’t need the Force when she has Weapons that fit her Better and somehow she Barely Uses Them in the Series, Ezra and Thrawn were done so Dirty, the Legacy Characters Did Nothing Interesting, and the Series Lacks and Ignore the Rule, the Lore, and Rebels, I felt Empty and Disappointed that I don’t want to see another season from Disney draining the Likability Star Wars has Left and if there’s One Thing in this Franchise I want to see Retcon it’s Not Rebels but the Unholy Sequel Trilogy, Great Video as Always Gio and I hope to see you in the New Year.
Making me reflect on my interest and having played the various SW RPG games ranging from West End Games up to Fantasy Flight... ANY character can become Force Sensitive. Depending on the game system this is something as simple as taking a feat in the D20 system to spending a certain amount of points (system dependent) and ... VOILA! You too can wield the force like a drunken master, or plot armored twat. Your point though of an extreme lack of character development is probably more of an issue than Sabine or that black chick getting gutted with a lightsaber which includes going through the spine, let's not kid ourselves. So yes, your logic on Sabine is not wrong, as much as I hate to agree with you.
I was a fan of them getting back to some bad assery with Balyan and their story... then had so much slow parts took me out to then be like okay some cool lightsaber fights. but was a bit slow.. then the world between worlds - cool. not so cool where the child was like do you hear it... was odd.. then to have another "descendant" of a jedi become this UBER powered person in seconds was like they missed out on a great time to do a flashback scene of her training with asoka - to then have her own acceptance of it. and as for the push - yeah that was BS.. if anything reverse where they guys are at and have them at the back where it would make it a shorter distance and make it be a little bit more believable. also have her fall down from using SO MUCH energy like baby yoda (aka grogu). but yes the fact so many scenes were just people not saying anything was so weak. Was it a good show no.. did it have some good scenes yes.. was the action great no it was okay.. did the writing fall flat Hell yes... I hope now that the writers are back, they want to do more quality over quantity, we will see why baylan went where he did and what ends up with the other 3 force users on that planet that seems to have a HUGE connection to all sides of the force as well as the witches. keep up the fun cheers.
As for the scene where Sabine survived being stabbed by a lightsaber, I'd argue that Qui-Gon, Duchess Satine, and that random-ass stormtrooper were all stabbed more fatally. They all died because they were stabbed in the chest, causing irreversible damage to the respiratory area. If your lungs, heart, or diaphragm have a gaping hole through them, you can't breathe, and thus you die. As for Sabine, she was stabbed in the abdomen, which is *way* less fatal, since if you have a gaping hole in your intestines, that can easily be repaired by surgery... which is exactly what happened to Sabine.
I'll at least say that Luke was able to use Force telekinesis after _training himself_ for the 3 years between _A New Hope_ and _Empire Strikes Back_ (grabbing his lightsaber to save himself from the wampa). Of course, he's a Skywalker and all, but I don't see _that_ as so far fetched. I do really appreciate your explanation of The Force afterwards. Even in a game like The Force Unleashed (who's whole deal _is_ making The Force as OP as possible), you learn new skills over time and build up to the epic set pieces. I can't really comment on much else, cause I haven't watched this show. I just saw a G.I. Gio premier and thought I'd watch that. Actually, I just had a thought - not a very well-developed one yet, but a thought. There's a trend with live-action Star Wars shows where those based on new ideas and characters tend to be regarded as much better than those about pre-existing (nostalgic) characters; Andor and The Mandalorian versus Ahsoka, Kenobi, and Boba Fett. Do the writers think they can rely on nostalgia and spectacle and so don't put as much effort into the writing of those shows (like this video explains)? That's not something I can explore further because I'm just not interested in most of these shows, but maybe someone else will.
Ahsoka is like dumb plot of Mando season 3 packaged with sluggish pacing of Andor, random-ass unrelated nostalgia material like in Boba Fett show and moronic action similar to Kenobi series. Basically, don't watch Disney Star Wars, check out fan films about the very same characters. That fan films are actually better.
I've heard others come up with better storylines for ashoka than what we actually got. Apathy for new SW now until they actually come out with something good.
I agree that this show was bad and had little character development. However, as far as not making sense, I would say it has the potential to make sense. First off, the lightsaber stab. The lightsaber went straight in and straight out, and she got medical attention right away. From there, it's just a question of did it hit anything vital. Even in real life, people have been impaled through the stomach and survived. Others have had the same and died. The original skywalker was literally cut in half, then burned and survived. This gives the possibility of survival. However, a powerful force user will go for something vital. Thus, the only possibility is that Sabine was spared. She didn't want to kill Sabine if she did not have to. She struck a non vital point and pulled straight out instead of to the side. ( The writers obviously didn't think of this, but It could make sense and would make a show a lot better. It would add an internal conflict between good and evil.) The second thing was the general's decisions. I think that spending time on this planet made the general go mad. This was where a great force war was held. It would make sense for some lingering side effects for people who stayed there for a long time. ( Again could add greatly to the story) finally Sabines force ability. I would say two things about this. First the Mandalorian peoples inability to normally use the force is strange. I don't know the history but I would say it is less likely that Sabine lacked talent (force sensitivity) and more likely that Mandalorians have there talents suppressed. It might even be that a Mandalorians natural fighting instinct came from there force sensitivity. If that's the case then Sabine did not learn to use the force when she picked up the lightsaber but instead broke through the Restrictions on her peoples natural force talent. (Just a Theory) finally going from picking up a lightsaber to Pushing Ezra instantly. This makes sense with or without my Earlier theory. It was Yoda himself who said it is not different, only different in your mind, it is. ( I don't remember the exact quote) point is what the show tells us is size is only a mental block not a Physical one. Subines artistic nature suggests a different way of looking at the world. Not every jedi has difficultys in the same area. My point is the show could make sense and even be good If they added like thirty more episodes to fill in the missing Pieces. My guess is someone had a pretty good script And someone else went and shrank it down to the point where we got this.
People say that we never seen someone survive a lightsaber stab but star killer was in the back by Vader and thrown into space and survived this was pre Disney
Ahsoka definitely dreamt all of it. And suffered some massive brain damage while submerged. That's the only way I can explain her actions and motivations in the latter half of the show. And yes, she wasn't exactly Mensa material before the mishap...
Bro I didn't realize her struggle of her worrying that she was like her former master. Like I didn't get that from either rebels or the ahsoka show. I am blind and deaf.
The midichlorian thing isn’t entirely accurate, in tpm Qui Gon analyses Anakin’s “m-count” meaning or at the very least strongly implying different people have different midichlorian concentrations, meaning there’s no opening up, you either have enough or you don’t
This is why Disney Star Wars is losing yhe interest of the fans! Because they've forgotten how to write interesting storylines and characters with development that made sense, and it's no wonder The Mandalorian Season 3 fell off a cliff with the audience, the worst rated season on Rotten Tomatoes of that show's entire run so far and the worst season of Star Wars television ever! And Ahsoka sucks, too, with it's lazy writing and overreliance on nostalgia and different already established characters to piggy back off of these things that fans love.....AGAIN! This is why there's no hope for Star Wars to ever recover after what they've done here to disrespect the fans' intelligence once again in order to subvert expectations, and I don't character anymore! I'm done with any new Star Wars content! #RIPStarWars!
@@GIGio_Official well that's too bad. I wasn't a star wars fan at the time of the show but I did like ahsoka. Probably underappreciated her with how female characters are now a days
Pretty good video for the most part. Ahsoka show sucks and so does dave filoni writing. How ever I am confused why you think the Rebels cartoon happens 5 years after Darth Vader's death? He is in the show.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
If you actually enjoyed Rebels, you'll hate all of these characters. It's almost as if they forgot they already had this entire Sabine "I don't want to be a jedi" bs in the animated show. I can't even begin to explain how disney manages to hire directors who've never even watched star wars. They are getting payed to add on to a already developed franchise, there is so little that they have to do that I doubt they spent more than a hour witting the entire show. If your a writer and you can't think of a decent story for such a vaste universe full of aliens, magic, and the force sensetive children, then you've failed as a writer. Also let me ruin the entire show for you, Ezra would be dead, he was barely able to get away with thawn at the end of Rebels where he was about to get rushed by storm troopers(Ezra was shot, like this guy was killed off how could he be alive). Answer how tf in any case would Ezra be able to escape thawn after barely trapping the guy to begin with. either Thawn is a idiot and a injured ezra is better than the worlds best tactician, or Thawn intentionally left his greatest threat alive.
@@laisphinto6372 thats true, it also doesn't really make sense that sabine would be able to learn the force in only a few days. it's also kinda hard to tell how long it's been since the end of the animated show as well as how long sabine spent training before Ahsoka gave up on her. Technically everyone in the star wars universe could use the force with enough training, but it makes no sense for someone like Sabine to be able to master the force as fast a Luke Skywalker who was being trained by master Yoda. normally you could say Ahsoka helped but throughout the show she barely does anything to help train her.
Tbh, the only reason I watched it was to see if they found Ezra and beat Thrawne once and for all. Which means I may end up watching season 2 if there will be one, but idk yet.
Ahsoka is everything to me!!! Dave Filoni is amazing at telling great Star Wars stories! The guy is a legend, and he blew me away like I knew he would!!! The story, characters, and fights are incredible! Seeing Hayden back was beautiful! Episode 5 is hands down one of the best pieces of Star Wars media imo!!! This show gave me everything I wanted as a Clone Wars and Rebels fan and more!!! The characters to me were one to one adaptations of their animated counterparts! Before someone says: no, they're not, they're acting so different; look at the circumstances of the show: Ahsoka was betrayed by the Jedi, she knows her master is Vader, Sabine was branded a traitor by her family, she lost Ezra, etc. And on top of all of that, they're trying to stop Thrawn's return!! Of course everyone's acting different! The fights reminded me so much of the prequels, and Thrawn is the definition of an evil mastermind!! Episode 3 gave me strong Empire Vibes, and gave me flashbacks from Kanan training Sabine. Episode 1's opening gave me A New Hope and Phantom Menance vibes!! And for those who keep saying Sabine should be dead, one: she was stabbed in the side while Qui Gon and the Captain at the beginning of episode 1 was stabbed straight through the spine! On top of that, Sabine got medical attention right away, and two: did you all really think they would kill her off? Come on. Anyway, I love this show with a passion!!! It gave me that classic Star Wars feel I haven't felt in a while!! I can't wait for Season 2!!! I'm beyond happy Dave got promoted to the CCO of Lucasfilm, and I can't wait to see what his future plans are for Star Wars!!! Go ahead, argue with me, call me a Disney shill, it's not gonna do any good. You don't have to like my opinion, but I'm asking you to respect it please!

They really made Ezra say: "A true warrior doesn't need a sword" just to disregard it immediately

Like they are only there to draw in views so that way they can tell their own story.
From what the MCU taught me, they only really do that for the male characters.
it reads as the writer/director being insecure aboout their own work
@@purpledragon1945Not that they'll ever admit it, of course...
for me, I've been working on my own story about a fantasy world a la D&D, I have the ruff draw of the 21st chapter done and am just proof reading. Working on it I have a main character and then the rest of the cast but in tears, MC whom is the main way the reader sees the world, Demi-MCs whom are the other cast like Axel who is the town that the MC's in sheriff or Marylan, an old friend and sister like team mate to the MC ect ect, lastly are the back ground who are like Lyra a bar keep that is a confidant to MC or Himmel a blacksmith.
working on my stories I started to have some chapters work on the MC while also hinting or showing the other cast but then have some stories follow the others whole sail. It's a balancing act but I have to say one thing, even though I love writing MC but I also love doing stuff with Axel or Mrvona, a life goddess and sometimes I fall down a pit working on a story for them while forgetting to work on MC.
After the Grand Inquisitor and Reeva, I knew Sabine was gonna be fine with a Saber stab.
I loved Rebels. This was advertised as Rebels Season 5, but it was really more like Rebels season 5 if they took an episode, dragged out a 20 minute episode for an hour, got rid of most of the main characters, developed them without telling the viewer, and isn't nearly as good as Rebels in general.
Didn't Ezra also grab a blaster like 5 seconds after saying he didn't need a weapon...
"so uncivilized..."

How dare you not do what I say? I’m a General!
…and now I’m going to ignore my superiors…
I don’t know why it took me so long to realize this but the gold sphere puzzle ball that turns into a holographic map is literally straight out of Treasure Planet.
It should be noted that in the Star Wars universe, being stabbed in the heart is much more lethal than being stabbed in the stomach like Sabine was.
Yeah, no, that was the bottom of the chest. Bottom of the rib cage, and right where a lung should be.
Qui gon Jin was stab in the stomach and he didn't live. So, I am not sure how that makes sense. also, light sabers are hot enough to cut though metal. I'm pretty sure if the stab wound didn't kill her blood boiling inside of her would have, especially with how long the blade was held there.
@@firelight3219 Actually he was stabed in the chest between the stomach and lower neck.
Psst, don't bother with things like "medical knowledge" here
Oh, hey! They brought back the giant hyperdrive-using space whales from the "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic" comic!
It's funny they hired the actress that played Aeryn in Farscape, (a fantastic sci-fi series) and that show even had a perfect example of how Thrawn should be, in their character Scorpius. But this version of Thrawn is no where close and wishes he was anything like Scorpius!
I swear Anakin had an accent in the prequels
3 years isn't that bad for a training arc... That's still a lot better instant prodigy Rey.
Love your stuff Gio. Always looking forward to your rants lol.
9:38 He was getting to know the witches
I've read the old Thrawn books and he was incredibly smart. This version of Thrawn is like a stupid person's attempt at pretending to be smart.
He keeps screwing up and just goes "Aha. It's all part of the plan!"
The smartest person alive even forgot to lock the damn doors in the tower...
Ahsoka and the others loklcked the doors from the inside to slow down the zombies chasing them!
I know lightsabers cut doors but it still takes time. If they aren't fast enough they'll eventually be cornered and overrun. At least Ezra wouldn't have made it onto the destroyer...
Thrawn could have even bombarded the tower while they were inside. It served no further purpose at that point and would have stopped or even killed them!
That's the problem with smart characters... they're only as smart as the person writing them.
The lightsaber stab _could have_ worked, if they had shown her just BARELY survive after quickly getting rushed to the hospital bed (and clearly explain that she was lucky to have survived at all), and actually developed that into part of a character arc where she deals the the phycological trauma of such an injury, and learns that her training is a lot more important than she first realized.
But of course... that's giving them too much credit.
"It's a puzzle cube that leads her to Ezra."
Pretty sure they did that whole puzzle map thing with Luke in the sequels. That's amazing how they recycle their own plot material.
I've got my own theory: Disney doesn't know how (or doesn't want to) do any space opera. But they have this immensely popular franchise, and they need to exploit it, so they keep making stories in other genres, then giving them the trappings of Star Wars stories. The Mandalorian? It was great, mostly, but it wasn't space opera; it was a western. Put the Man with No Name next to Din Djarin, and he fits right in. Ashoka? Ashoka is either a fairy tale, or a DnD campaign; pretty sword & sorcery either way. And so on, and so forth.
If I need a space opera fix, I'll go re-read Schlock Mercenary; that webcomic goes hard especially towards the end when all the story lines wrap up.
Your video essays are so goood! This channel is too underrated
Filoni just hates EU characters that are not his.
Sorry I missed the premire, i will be watching it soon. I hope to see how i feel about it.
I can't wait for your next videos Gio.
18:33, Before I go any further, I giggled at the microphone on a knife.
0:27, 3:35, 6:07, 11:52, 12:47, “Hollow” is this best way to describe this show. My biggest gripe with it was that even when things were happening, each episode still felt largely uneventful, tensionless and sometimes outright boring.
2:10, Like a lot of things in this show, this would only have required a minor change to not appear jarring. I know they have Bacta in this universe (which they already used in Mandalorian Season 1’s finale to immediately heal Din when he gets a fatal head injury), but I wish they showed details of how they managed to save her (such as Ahsoka getting an emergency pack of Bacta from her ship to immediately put on her gut wound and having to do it quickly before it kills her, which would maintain consistency with how Qui Gonn Gin’s gut wound took several minutes to kill him and him saying “It’s too late” implying he died before any medical attention could be given) and that it would take a little more effort for her to either recover. But instead, it focuses a bit needlessly on her doubting her capabilities while she could be focused on trying to find her friend.
16:05, While it is established the Force exists in all living beings and some simply have a higher amount of it that others that they can learn to perceive and manipulate through concentration to varying degrees, having Sabine be taught how to use the Force isn’t really all that necessary to her character. It doesn’t really change her as a person other than now having her be telekinetic (by comparison, Luke Skywalker, someone with a much higher innate Force connection, was barely able to summon his lightsaber hilt when about to be mauled to death by a wampa while Sabine can not only summon Ezra’s lightsaber but also levitate a fully grown person who is falling through the air).
Compare this to her stint with the Darksaber, where having to wield it correlated with her being made to face her shame and anger over the Beskar destroying field generator she made for the Empire that they used to subjugate her planet and people. They could have primarily stuck with her primary conflict being her grief and desperation to reunite with Ezra after the lose of her people potentially endangering the entire galaxy when she gives Thrawn the means to return from Peridia. Instead, she and Ezra greet each other like they’ve only missed a few months of time together and that’s it. No emotion, no struggle, no conflict, just another action setpiece and Ahsoka needlessly wastes her time fighting Baylan when she could have kept flying to reach Sabine and Ezra to save them from the death squad Thrawn sent after them.
"Ahsoka" is just proof that Feloni can't write for shit. He can produce and showrunner well (when he had Lucas talking into his ear), but without someone to reign him in, he can only make a warmed-over turd.
I excuse the Sabine force push because she has seen Ezra and Kanan do it on several occasions so she knows that it’s possible for her to accomplish.
One problem... they already established that Sabine isn't force sensitive. Given her lack of training combined with that fact, it makes pretty much no logical sense. It didn't feel earned.
First 2 episodes of this show were what made me drop the whole Star Wars tv shows idea altogether.
I hope you have a great new year bro!
Thanks man! Hope you have a great new years too.
why do i hate almost every live action adaptation of those characters
I liked the show but it did feel as you said hollow. Baylen was my favorite character and they didn't do anything in the final episode with him. RIP Ray Stevenson. Not to mention i'm not mad about your explanation about Sabine using the force too quickly. The feeling is mutual. Same goes for lightsaber damage=just a scratch. Downgrading the effects of lightsabers gets on my nerves.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video even though I only saw like half of Ahsoka episode 1. I have no interest in actually seeing it since I predicted it would be a lot of what you described. TBH, I've been very unsure about Ahsoka as a character for like a year now. I don't just mean in the Disney stuff, I'm also not positively sure if Ahsoka was ever a good character to begin with. People I talked to online gave a lot of criticisms on how Ahsoka was poorly written in TCW and how she's constantly a mary sue that Filoni keeps alive. Now I haven't rewatched TCW for over two years and I don't have a hate bone for Ahsoka right now, but it's hard for me to dismiss these criticisms after I learned how out of touch Filoni is with Star Wars and that he's still using her a cash cow. Either way, this show is clearly another dumpster fire from Disney and it's apparent Ahsoka should've had a send off a long time ago.
Am i the only one who realized that in episode 3 of the show, nothing actually happened? it's just 60 mins of heading towards a planet.
Despite thinking of myself as a critical thinker, I found myself unable to get stuck up in the issues with this show and really, really enjoyed it despite its flaws. I am likely the target audience for the nostalgia baiters at DisLucasfilm as I grew up watching the clone wars. Here was the positive spin I put on it (which probably requires a background understanding/certain perspective on the behind-the-scenes drama with Filoni, KK, Iger, etc) - Sabine's sudden force use seems like a forced inclusion by Kennedy. Whether or not you agree with her stated agenda to place women in the forefront of new star wars media, its not some conspiracy but rather her simple business strategy. Kennedy is currently Filoni's boss and thus she has the final say. This show, for me, was a perfect middle ground in which Filoni was able to put his own substance in, despite having to wrestle with a boss who would never allow Ezra to display negative emotions like anger or skepticism towards our female protagonist, for example. With the way things are planned for the future, Kennedy's new Rey movie appears to be her "prove it or lose it" project to Disney's CEO - being that if like the sequels it fails financially, her job will be handed to someone else, most likely being either Jon Favreu or Filoni himself. And hinging on this big if, this could lead to a second season of Ahsoka that most fans will find much more entertaining/easier to swallow.
Anyway my 2 cents xD
I’m very happy you’re going to be increasing the frequency of your uploads! Love your content, man! I watch your videos while knowing nothing about Star Wars lol
...is this dude from miami? Ive never heard anyone say Patter-ren except in south florida. Nice vid and great production . Subbed
14:34 I.. so you’re telling me two force MASTERS couldn’t stop& crush two tie fighters mid air!? Like I’m not saying they need to be starkiller but we literally in rebels See Ezra do so crazy ass shit like that as a kid! You’d think that mfer could throw a mountain if he wanted to.
Sabine and Reva > Superheated plasma that can melt blast doors
Your jokes were super consistent on how solid they were.
Filoni's already told his stories, they need to let him go!
Great review
I liked the show better than Kenobi, but there was always something that felt off. Thanks for filling that missing piece.
Oh..boy.. Gio rants.. kemme get my popcorn😊.
I just noticed that Erza wore the stormtrooper outfit who was a zombie so he must have been stinking, he decided he was going to take off his helmet in front of Hera? Man, the smell didn't bother you at all during the trip?
Sabine being stabbed in the gut was so dumb!
This is fucking Star Wars!
Cut off her hand, and no one will question why she is all good in the next scene.
Sure, losing limbs is a Star Wars trope.
But, it's a trope that makes more sense than the new trope of living through gut shots by a lightsaber.
They are great at making their own story less compelling. Light sabers dont kill , their big bad struggles with an untrained Rey , their Jedi Master acts like a forgettful old man , Luke Skywalker doesn't feel like leaving his island etc... I jumped off after Obi Wan
My point of the worst point of this show is after Sabine gave up the map.
The first two episodes could have been skipped easily.
The two main leads actually faced a challenge and everyone was excited at seeing an action with consequences.
Then... They flat out ignore it.
Seriously they could have had her get slapped by a storm trooper and hauled onto the star ship like a sack of potatoes and nothing would have changed from the overall script.
The made her take one action which could be considered good or bad depending on your point of view... Value family or doom them to safeguard the galaxy...
And then swept it underneath the rug where there are clear points where it felt like they had planned for it to get addressed before the writers were beaten with the stupidity stick.
Can't let the females face any hardship or be seen with any possible flaw... Even if it makes them a better character!
Seriously Ashoka who chose to repress her emotions showed more emotion or care about Ezra than the person who sold out the galaxy, left her master for dead, and joined the evil space empire for a taxi ride... Didn't say or do anything to ensure the script would run right past it so she looks perfect with no flaws.
That's the problem with Disney Star Wars live action... By refusing to let anything happen to their female characters and insisting they are the leads... Nothing happens!
What was Ashoka doing during the movies? Getting spanked by Bo Katan in her mando love armory.
The lightsaber hand off is terrible because within that same fight, Ezra picks up a weapon because turns out he's not that good at hand to hand, THEN he also builds another lightsaber, because i guess the parts are just laying around.
It makes no sense. The writers just put in stuff people would like to see without a thread of logic connecting them.
I'm just gonna use years here, I'll leave the "BBY" and "ABY" stuff to the hardcore fans because for me(a casual SW fan) it is just plain confusing.... So in years: The Rebels epilogue takes place five years after RotJ(I'm gonna assume that it wasn't too long after the siege of Lothal because Hera was pregnant at that time, and Jacen appears to be around five during the Rebels epilogue) , which is where we see Sabine become Ahsoka's apprentice. Looks like about a year goes by when The Night of 1000 Tears happens on Mandalore, killing Sabine's family. It is most likely at this point that Ahsoka and Sabine part ways as Ahsoka feared that Sabine would turn dark. Another four years passes and that is where the Ahsoka series begins. So it looks like Ahsoka had only been training her for a year before she decided to abandon her. I don't know.... This series didn't expalin their relationship that well! If the Ahsoka series would have been about developing the relationship between Ahsoka and Sabine rather than leaving the viewers in the dark... the perhaps it would have been a better series!
Also, in regards to how Sabine could force push Ezra, well I kind of have a theory that she may have had a little help, I kind of figure that perhaps Anakin's force ghost helped her out... that might be a bit of a stretch, but it makes a crap ton more sense than her using it like a pro in just a few minutes!
Sabine surviving the lightsaber does make sense if Shin know Ahsoka was coming. If she saw Sabine dead she’d angrily chase Shin. If Sabine was dying Ahsoka would rush her to hospital and Shin escapes.
Show still sucked.
Honestly this show should'nt have been live and should've just been a new Rebels season.
At the moment the show was announced that it will be live action, I didn't cared about it. I personally really prefer animated shows over live action.
I am not surprised. Every Disney SW project is just another soulless cash grab. I used to like Ashoka, but now she has become overexposed. Like Harley Quinn, her popularity has ruined her.
Happy New Year Gi. Please keep up the great content.
Tf is up with all of these maps in the movies and shows. It didn’t work all that well for the last Jedi because of how damn stupid that whole thing is. Oh I put this map within the galaxy so if somebody needs me they can find me to I came here on this island to die. I’m not interested in this show in the slightest because of the map plot.
Damn bro, your comedic writing has improved over time, for sure, this was a killer script 😂 proud of you bro, can't wait to see what you got in 2024! 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Ya know what if they made mark red death and instead of khione Kaitlyn’s just dead and he wants to bring her back as a means to get to frost but since he can’t do that he tries to use something like velocity 9 and the speed force to go back in time to save her and he ends up becoming red death and attracts the negative speed force out of a want for revenge and grief for his loss
Where's you're review of Andor?
If this Series was Animated with the Original Actors that Voice the Character, it would’ve be Fine as Star Wars current Strength is Animated Series, but instead we got a Confusing Souless Mess I don’t understand what is happening Half of the Time, Rosario Dawson was terribly Miscast as Ahsoka Tano that I get Bored Watching Her, Sabine felt like the Main Character instead of he Master and while I have little Memory on Rebels, I’m pretty sure that’s not how the Character should be and honestly she doesn’t need the Force when she has Weapons that fit her Better and somehow she Barely Uses Them in the Series, Ezra and Thrawn were done so Dirty, the Legacy Characters Did Nothing Interesting, and the Series Lacks and Ignore the Rule, the Lore, and Rebels, I felt Empty and Disappointed that I don’t want to see another season from Disney draining the Likability Star Wars has Left and if there’s One Thing in this Franchise I want to see Retcon it’s Not Rebels but the Unholy Sequel Trilogy, Great Video as Always Gio and I hope to see you in the New Year.
i don't remember if Sabine uses her Mandalorian weapons while fighting
Not in Ahsoka, in Rebels she uses them or nothing most of the time.
Making me reflect on my interest and having played the various SW RPG games ranging from West End Games up to Fantasy Flight... ANY character can become Force Sensitive. Depending on the game system this is something as simple as taking a feat in the D20 system to spending a certain amount of points (system dependent) and ... VOILA! You too can wield the force like a drunken master, or plot armored twat. Your point though of an extreme lack of character development is probably more of an issue than Sabine or that black chick getting gutted with a lightsaber which includes going through the spine, let's not kid ourselves.
So yes, your logic on Sabine is not wrong, as much as I hate to agree with you.
This is why it is Disney Star Wars❗
I was a fan of them getting back to some bad assery with Balyan and their story... then had so much slow parts took me out to then be like okay some cool lightsaber fights. but was a bit slow.. then the world between worlds - cool. not so cool where the child was like do you hear it... was odd.. then to have another "descendant" of a jedi become this UBER powered person in seconds was like they missed out on a great time to do a flashback scene of her training with asoka - to then have her own acceptance of it. and as for the push - yeah that was BS.. if anything reverse where they guys are at and have them at the back where it would make it a shorter distance and make it be a little bit more believable. also have her fall down from using SO MUCH energy like baby yoda (aka grogu).
but yes the fact so many scenes were just people not saying anything was so weak. Was it a good show no.. did it have some good scenes yes.. was the action great no it was okay.. did the writing fall flat Hell yes... I hope now that the writers are back, they want to do more quality over quantity, we will see why baylan went where he did and what ends up with the other 3 force users on that planet that seems to have a HUGE connection to all sides of the force as well as the witches.
keep up the fun cheers.
1:34 GOD!!!!🍑
As for the scene where Sabine survived being stabbed by a lightsaber, I'd argue that Qui-Gon, Duchess Satine, and that random-ass stormtrooper were all stabbed more fatally. They all died because they were stabbed in the chest, causing irreversible damage to the respiratory area. If your lungs, heart, or diaphragm have a gaping hole through them, you can't breathe, and thus you die. As for Sabine, she was stabbed in the abdomen, which is *way* less fatal, since if you have a gaping hole in your intestines, that can easily be repaired by surgery... which is exactly what happened to Sabine.
1:12 😂
I'll at least say that Luke was able to use Force telekinesis after _training himself_ for the 3 years between _A New Hope_ and _Empire Strikes Back_ (grabbing his lightsaber to save himself from the wampa). Of course, he's a Skywalker and all, but I don't see _that_ as so far fetched. I do really appreciate your explanation of The Force afterwards. Even in a game like The Force Unleashed (who's whole deal _is_ making The Force as OP as possible), you learn new skills over time and build up to the epic set pieces.
I can't really comment on much else, cause I haven't watched this show. I just saw a G.I. Gio premier and thought I'd watch that.
Actually, I just had a thought - not a very well-developed one yet, but a thought. There's a trend with live-action Star Wars shows where those based on new ideas and characters tend to be regarded as much better than those about pre-existing (nostalgic) characters; Andor and The Mandalorian versus Ahsoka, Kenobi, and Boba Fett. Do the writers think they can rely on nostalgia and spectacle and so don't put as much effort into the writing of those shows (like this video explains)? That's not something I can explore further because I'm just not interested in most of these shows, but maybe someone else will.
I got four episodes in and gave up. It was so terrible I just couldn’t allow them to take any more of my time.
Ahsoka is like dumb plot of Mando season 3 packaged with sluggish pacing of Andor, random-ass unrelated nostalgia material like in Boba Fett show and moronic action similar to Kenobi series.
Basically, don't watch Disney Star Wars, check out fan films about the very same characters. That fan films are actually better.
She also uses her lightsabers backwards sometimes just a note
I've heard others come up with better storylines for ashoka than what we actually got. Apathy for new SW now until they actually come out with something good.

I agree that this show was bad and had little character development. However, as far as not making sense, I would say it has the potential to make sense. First off, the lightsaber stab. The lightsaber went straight in and straight out, and she got medical attention right away. From there, it's just a question of did it hit anything vital. Even in real life, people have been impaled through the stomach and survived. Others have had the same and died. The original skywalker was literally cut in half, then burned and survived. This gives the possibility of survival. However, a powerful force user will go for something vital. Thus, the only possibility is that Sabine was spared. She didn't want to kill Sabine if she did not have to. She struck a non vital point and pulled straight out instead of to the side. ( The writers obviously didn't think of this, but It could make sense and would make a show a lot better. It would add an internal conflict between good and evil.)
The second thing was the general's decisions. I think that spending time on this planet made the general go mad. This was where a great force war was held. It would make sense for some lingering side effects for people who stayed there for a long time. ( Again could add greatly to the story)
finally Sabines force ability. I would say two things about this. First the Mandalorian peoples inability to normally use the force is strange. I don't know the history but I would say it is less likely that Sabine lacked talent (force sensitivity) and more likely that Mandalorians have there talents suppressed. It might even be that a Mandalorians natural fighting instinct came from there force sensitivity. If that's the case then Sabine did not learn to use the force when she picked up the lightsaber but instead broke through the Restrictions on her peoples natural force talent. (Just a Theory) finally going from picking up a lightsaber to Pushing Ezra instantly. This makes sense with or without my Earlier theory. It was Yoda himself who said it is not different, only different in your mind, it is. ( I don't remember the exact quote) point is what the show tells us is size is only a mental block not a Physical one. Subines artistic nature suggests a different way of looking at the world. Not every jedi has difficultys in the same area.
My point is the show could make sense and even be good If they added like thirty more episodes to fill in the missing Pieces. My guess is someone had a pretty good script And someone else went and shrank it down to the point where we got this.
People say that we never seen someone survive a lightsaber stab but star killer was in the back by Vader and thrown into space and survived this was pre Disney
Tbf nothing about those games were supposed to be realistic
Nothing about Star Wars makes any sense if we are using reality
Ahsoka definitely dreamt all of it. And suffered some massive brain damage while submerged.
That's the only way I can explain her actions and motivations in the latter half of the show.
And yes, she wasn't exactly Mensa material before the mishap...
Bro I didn't realize her struggle of her worrying that she was like her former master. Like I didn't get that from either rebels or the ahsoka show. I am blind and deaf.
Disney made lightsabers useless
I don't understand... how did we go from rogue one, to the sequels and all this disney+ nonsense?
IDK what BBY is but logic suggests it’s before battle of Yavon
Someone tell me please
(Yes I used star trek references)
You're right. BBY and ABY are based on the Battle of Yavin.
@@Unknown-hb3id Thanks I just didn’t know the contraction and using context I took a guess but great knowing for sure

You do say Let me Explain, don’t you?
The midichlorian thing isn’t entirely accurate, in tpm Qui Gon analyses Anakin’s “m-count” meaning or at the very least strongly implying different people have different midichlorian concentrations, meaning there’s no opening up, you either have enough or you don’t
I would still date Ashoka
Man I don’t care I loved every second of it
This is why Disney Star Wars is losing yhe interest of the fans! Because they've forgotten how to write interesting storylines and characters with development that made sense, and it's no wonder The Mandalorian Season 3 fell off a cliff with the audience, the worst rated season on Rotten Tomatoes of that show's entire run so far and the worst season of Star Wars television ever! And Ahsoka sucks, too, with it's lazy writing and overreliance on nostalgia and different already established characters to piggy back off of these things that fans love.....AGAIN! This is why there's no hope for Star Wars to ever recover after what they've done here to disrespect the fans' intelligence once again in order to subvert expectations, and I don't character anymore! I'm done with any new Star Wars content! #RIPStarWars!
So it didn't just copy clones wars and have a developing character?
Unfortunately no.
@@GIGio_Official well that's too bad. I wasn't a star wars fan at the time of the show but I did like ahsoka. Probably underappreciated her with how female characters are now a days
ONE SINGLE PERSON
IS NOT A FUCKING LEGACY!
One of the top 3 worst shows I’ve ever seen.
i like this video
Pretty good video for the most part. Ahsoka show sucks and so does dave filoni writing. How ever I am confused why you think the Rebels cartoon happens 5 years after Darth Vader's death? He is in the show.
Ahsoka is good. Disney is bad.
I have not watched it, don't plan on it. Disney has already ruined Star Wars.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Yeah I thought that shit was heat, mainly because of the spectacle.😂👏
If you actually enjoyed Rebels, you'll hate all of these characters. It's almost as if they forgot they already had this entire Sabine "I don't want to be a jedi" bs in the animated show. I can't even begin to explain how disney manages to hire directors who've never even watched star wars. They are getting payed to add on to a already developed franchise, there is so little that they have to do that I doubt they spent more than a hour witting the entire show. If your a writer and you can't think of a decent story for such a vaste universe full of aliens, magic, and the force sensetive children, then you've failed as a writer. Also let me ruin the entire show for you, Ezra would be dead, he was barely able to get away with thawn at the end of Rebels where he was about to get rushed by storm troopers(Ezra was shot, like this guy was killed off how could he be alive). Answer how tf in any case would Ezra be able to escape thawn after barely trapping the guy to begin with. either Thawn is a idiot and a injured ezra is better than the worlds best tactician, or Thawn intentionally left his greatest threat alive.
Was she ever hinted to BE forced sensitive in rebels? Yeah Sabine Swing around the darksaber but this doesnt make her forced sensitive
@@laisphinto6372 thats true, it also doesn't really make sense that sabine would be able to learn the force in only a few days. it's also kinda hard to tell how long it's been since the end of the animated show as well as how long sabine spent training before Ahsoka gave up on her. Technically everyone in the star wars universe could use the force with enough training, but it makes no sense for someone like Sabine to be able to master the force as fast a Luke Skywalker who was being trained by master Yoda. normally you could say Ahsoka helped but throughout the show she barely does anything to help train her.
People that say is good are just cope
*reads title*
😒 No duh
Strange. I don’t remember ever thinking Ahsoka was bad. Are you sure you’re not confusing me with someone else?
No it's not
The worst part is the plot armor. There is no point in gettin' invested in the plot if there are no stakes.
This show sucked.
Tbh, the only reason I watched it was to see if they found Ezra and beat Thrawne once and for all. Which means I may end up watching season 2 if there will be one, but idk yet.
Ahsoka is everything to me!!! Dave Filoni is amazing at telling great Star Wars stories! The guy is a legend, and he blew me away like I knew he would!!! The story, characters, and fights are incredible! Seeing Hayden back was beautiful! Episode 5 is hands down one of the best pieces of Star Wars media imo!!! This show gave me everything I wanted as a Clone Wars and Rebels fan and more!!! The characters to me were one to one adaptations of their animated counterparts! Before someone says: no, they're not, they're acting so different; look at the circumstances of the show: Ahsoka was betrayed by the Jedi, she knows her master is Vader, Sabine was branded a traitor by her family, she lost Ezra, etc. And on top of all of that, they're trying to stop Thrawn's return!! Of course everyone's acting different! The fights reminded me so much of the prequels, and Thrawn is the definition of an evil mastermind!! Episode 3 gave me strong Empire Vibes, and gave me flashbacks from Kanan training Sabine. Episode 1's opening gave me A New Hope and Phantom Menance vibes!! And for those who keep saying Sabine should be dead, one: she was stabbed in the side while Qui Gon and the Captain at the beginning of episode 1 was stabbed straight through the spine! On top of that, Sabine got medical attention right away, and two: did you all really think they would kill her off? Come on. Anyway, I love this show with a passion!!! It gave me that classic Star Wars feel I haven't felt in a while!! I can't wait for Season 2!!! I'm beyond happy Dave got promoted to the CCO of Lucasfilm, and I can't wait to see what his future plans are for Star Wars!!! Go ahead, argue with me, call me a Disney shill, it's not gonna do any good. You don't have to like my opinion, but I'm asking you to respect it please!
