Ahsoka review season 1 episode 3, I don't know what Disney thought they were doing with Star Wars in this, but it's more laughable than the flying spinning lightsabers. We get Ahsoka in space, defeating fighters with her handheld lightsabers. The writing required for this is surprising enough, but to get that signed off by Disney Lucasfilm executives is even more surprising. While previously Ahsoka had issues with pacing, this time we destroy the entire lore as everyone can be a jedi now! I never expected Ahsoka to go this far, but what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
I also hated this episode . However your take on Chopper last video proves you know 0 about Star Wars and are doing this just because you get clicks. Chopper is almost as famous of a droid as R2d2 . He has always spoken basic and flexed his arms like this and EVERYONE LOVES HIM! You do not know anything about Rebels and this shows characters so you make comments that are so devoid of knowing anything real that you should not be making videos about this series. Chopper is supposed to be understood. All Droids speak . These older R droids can speak Basic but are programed not to. Chopper on the other hand is so old and has been so left without wiping his memory that he has developed a Basic speech you can understand. It is Dave doing his voice by the way and you are so wrong about Chopper it is silly .
Hey Disparu, any chance we'll be treated to an in-depth video previewing what's in store for us in Season 2 of Wheel of Time? We're all on the edge of our seats, eagerly awaiting some insight into the next chapter of this 'interesting' adaptation. 😁
You know whats funny, if the Ahsoka show picked up right at the end of Rebels and was about Ahsoka taking her "apprentice into deep space where they would not be sensed or hunted by sith or dark jedi, they could go on some interesting missions, she could train sabine to be a jedi teacher, unable to master the force, sabine could still be trained in the methods of the jedi so that when she came upon another force sensitive, WHO COULD learn and come closer to mastering it, and could pass on the techniques and train them as well, incase ahsoka died again like when vader tried to kill her, there by cleverly passing on jedi skills to non jedi able people, who the sith could not find due to them not being notable in the force. Then they train up new generations of jedi in a epic follow up series during the OT setting in the outskirts of the empire, meanwhile Ahsoka goes on a quest to find the one person who she knows CAN use the force besides her, and we get this epic quest where she must save that guy from Thrawn who is using him as a tool to navigate the outer reaches of the galaxy where the space whales dropped them off at.
You could even argue the space whales go to another layer of space sometimes where a second set of civilizations exist overlapping the star wars galaxy, and its only the whales who can cross that barrier.
Maybe that guy is right, maybe finding Thrawn is a really bad idea. He basically wins every time when it comes to predictable tactical battles. What if he defeats their forces? What if the Empire follows their fleet and arrives in time to support thrawn when they find him? Ooooo, would be a good story actually.
@@jesusoftheapesdo you really have this tantrum because you like this cheap copy r2d2, which you saw in a Bad series.
Towards a person who reviews this series not as someone who neccessarely likes star wars, but likes to watch series and movies?
Holy fuck you are retarded
I love that the review is ten minutes longer than the actual episode.
It's more entertaining as well
Anf should be better paid.
Me too, worth the subscription unlike Disney+
I stopped watching d+ as it’s more entertaining via disparu
i thought the same.pointing out all the bullshit needs time
The droid really is the star of the show. His intermittent, subtle “you suck, Sabine” is my favorite part.
He’s like K2SO except not funny
They are going to make the droid admit he was wrong when Sabine turns into a jedi master in episode 8. I hope the voice actor smuggles some sarcasm into his forced admission
The entire premise of Jedi taking children from their parents because of the "force" is completely ruined with the "everyone can use the force"
It only gets creepier with each retcon...
So now they’re just kidnapping children for fun!
This. The SW shills and defenders can keep saying "anyone can be trained" all they want but if that's the case why be selective even if a very low mid-count candidate can qualify for training?
I prefer Sabine stuck being a Mando even if she's very low on the Force scaling.
Why bother learning techniques that can't be used effectively due to lack of space magic when she's already good at being Mando warrior. All she needs are advice from a Jedi on how to counter their techniques using hers.
No it doesnt
@@matthewskullblood9778 Elaborate, would you kindly.
If anyone can use the force, why did Palpatine need a special force sensitive clone body?
Disney: Because shut up.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Why are you using critical thinking skills?
Are you not aware that that is forbidden??
@@white0thunderwhite0thunder71 I like how this is said to be a Disney thing, even though Lucas said everyone has the capacity of using the force
Cause he's a man, baby!
@@XCalibur_EXUm, source?
I like the part where Sabine's arms go from wispy to bulky and defined when they cut to her stunt double.
Let alone that she needed a stunt double to swing at swing molecules
Yea, normally I'm very bad at seeing this. But here it was so obvious.
I honestly didn't notice the switch, but I just noticed she had really nice arms in those scenes and I thought it was refreshing to actually have an actress look like she was a fighter. Guess not.
It's so strange that men go though these insane body transformation to play action roles, but we just have to accept that women with stings for arms are powerful.
What's even sillier is, in real life the actress supposedly has a black belt in Karate and should not need a stunt double.
@@MadsFeierskov Sabine: "Those are actually Mandalorian Blowup Muscles. They are fueled by an airtank in my armor."
If Disney actually wanted to elevate women in its series, it would be nice if the writers didn’t portray us as incompetent, narcissistic, inappropriately emotional, and stupid.
Indeed Thrifty Cute Tree Rodent from Across the Pond, yes indeed.
But the only group disney hate more than women is men. They like activists, feminists, birthing people, transmissions, small children…but they despise women.
Remember when Qui-Gon Jinn got stabbed and IMMEDIATELY died… we know that force users can sustain their life through the force… so you’re telling me, that one of the most balanced force users in the universe couldn’t survive an abdomen wound from a light saber… but this random civilian can survive it without a Bacta tank?!!?!?!
If the Death Star was nerfed this hard it would have trouble destroying Ceres.
Darth fucking Maul...
Immediately? What movie did you watch. He was laying there for 5 minutes.
@@oXRaptorzXoTechnically correct although he was busy dying.
So you don't think at all it might have anything to do with which vital organs the light sabre did or did not go through? I mean, it's like a knife wound or a gunshot wound. A bullet can, in theory, go right through your torso without hitting any major organs; a knife could stab you through the heart or just be a flesh wound. We clearly see from the position of the wound that it was not at the centre of the torso but low down and well toward the side so, for example, it did not go through the heart or the lungs.
Also, do you really think when Qui-Gonn died they did that to establish something about light sabre injuries?
And, for the record, he did not immediately die; he was alive the whole time Obiwan was fighting Maul - go back and time it; it is longer than you think (because the fight is so good you don't notice the time passing!) How do you know he wouldn't have survived if he had immediate medical treatment?
If Dave Filoni writes the next Harry Potter movie, are Muggles going to be able to use magic if they just try hard enough? Hogwarts is going to be packed.
Only the stunning and brave Type B muggles.

Flashgitz already solved that plot point … and more competent then what we could ever hope to get from Filoni.

Hang on, didn't Gideon want Grogu's blood so he could transplant midichlorians into his clones to make them Force sensitive?
But this show suggests his clones just need to train hard enough.
Ah see, your mistake is you're using logic. It has no place here. This is only about making stuff that would look cool to a lobotomy victim. Hence the lasers that do zero damage.
Blood infusion doesn't work, btw. Palpatine did that too with a Jedis' blood when transforming Grievous into a cyborg and it didn't make him force sensitive.
@@lightborn9071 if you say so. What canon source was that by the way? It is canon that Gideon was giving his clones Midichlorians through blood transfusions.
@@bjrnhalfhand2258 Damn, I don't know the exact source, but it's Grievous' backstory, added for the Prequels. He got Sifo-Dyas' blood in hope it would make him force sensitive.
@@bjrnhalfhand2258 I believe it's canon to the face
So funny in 2023 I watch the Disparu review not the actual episodes anymore 😂
The reality is that these days these reviews can save us some genuine pain.
The reviews are better written, more tightly plotted, more internally consistent, and more entertaining.
A 3/10 episode that would have been 9/10 if Ahsoka yelled "WEEEEEEEEEE!" as she cartwheeled through space.
Bro agreed. Literally, almost ANYTHING would have been better than this haha. At this point, I'm surprised how hard the writers are still trying to take themselves seriously.
They nicked so many lines from the originals, I'm surprised she didn't Yahoo!
Btw, a cartwheel in space is a physically impossible manoeuvre.
I was waiting for a "Great, kid, now don't get cocky" when Sabine said she hit one.
@@RobinAnnLewis Yeah haha same. Disney keeps trying to pass off bad writing and creative bankruptcy as clever throwbacks to the classics and it still doesn't work. Fans know what you're doing.
Sabine Wren becoming a Jedi makes as much sense as Ray Charles becoming a sniper.
If he had left music and focused on shooting, he could have been
"Let's make this character a Jedi" was old and tired when they used it for Corran Horn in the X-Wing novels in the mid to late 1990s.
@@Akinwalesegun?sarcasm?
Teamed up with Stevie wonder as spotter.🤣🤣
@@Akinwalesegunyes, he would use the force to make his shots, like Luke on the death star.🤣🤣🤣
Crazy how a Farmer from a Sand Planet (Luke Skywalker before his skin was taken by J.A.K.E.) learned how to shoot a laser canon and destroyed some tie fighters at the same time in Episode 4 while a Mandalorian Warrior, trained from birth, has the aim of Mr. Magoo.
Remember, he got a lot of practice on womp rats back home... rofl
she destroyed 4 fighters....wtf
@@diegokaqui60I think only 3 but still
This is offensive to the sight impaired 🤔
That sounds like an insult to Mr. Magoo.
Remember when Luke was the last hope to defeat Vader and the Emperor? Then we got annoyed when they kept retconning so many force users surviving order 66. Who knew that literally the entire galaxy could have been trained to use the force and defeat them.
I still remember Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire trilogy, where Luke as a last Jedi Knight was actually a big deal...yeah, Mara Jade was force sensitive as late Emperor's Hand and mad clone master Joruus C'Baoth had good moves, but Jedi shit was still extremely rare and cool in the galaxy. Good Times!
Yup, it's all nonsense
Everybody has the Force (Midi-Clorians ) but in different amount and you need to have High amount to use the Force actively.
We know Han Solo had a Connection to the Force but a weak one thats why he was such a great Pilot, but not enough to use it actively in anyway even with a training.
The Jedi Order at the end of the Republic was more than 10000 People but the Jedi Knight who wielded the Force were only a few Hundred, because most didnt make the cut from Youngling to Padawan and were send of to different part of the Order, most ended up in the Agricultural part which were literraly Farmers who used the limited Forcepowers they had to grow better and more Food for the Galaxy.
If the Republic was still around Han Solo and Sabine would have found by the Order and trained as Younglings but wouldnt make the cut to Padawan and end up as Farmers.
But this is of course still only a really small amount of People in the whole Galaxy.
So technically yes but actually no
Except even Ahsoka couldn't defeat Vader. Only Luke could because it was his son and Vader didn't want to kill him. So Vader gave in. Luke having the courage to face them is what made him the last hope.
@@mikavirtanen7029 Obi-Wan: "He was our only hope."
Yoda: "No. There is another."
Obi-Wan: "Really? Who?"
Yoda: "Anyone, literally you can train in the ways of the force. This frog, you can train."
Obi-Wan: "I lived in a desert cave working shit jobs for the last 19 years and let Vader kill me for what exactly?"
Yoda: "Kek, top this is. A newf4g, you still are. Lurk you must for 2 years."
When Ahsoka fans said they wanted a show for her, i doubt this is what they had in mind. Now i just feel like an ass for being one of them.
Trust me you're not an ass for wanting good content (for a change). I think many, many people are starving for good content right now.
We all want something good to come. That is and will be an ass move.
The true asses are the people producing crap after crap.
@@BasicShapesany person expecting good content from disney at this point absolutelly is an ass. how long do they get to throw shit in your face until you realize thats all they are doing.
Watch Bloodhounds if you want good content. no lightsabers in that one though.
In Rebels, Sabine recieved some Jedi training because she had the Darksaber, a lightsaber of significance to the Mandalorians, and needed to know how to use it. Literally nobody expected nor stated she had the potential for anything more from her than that in terms of Jedi stuff.
But she's a 10, she is special and deserves it.
Modern female thinking.
Yeah and Ezra was the Jedi of the crew. So it makes zero sense to make her a Jedi all of a sudden.
@@ThePhoenixScribe Set Lightsabers to ''Razzle Dazzle''
great point
@@ThePhoenixScribe yep
So if every one can use the Force then why does the Empire NOT train all their stormtoopers in the force?
There's a reason vader only had a few inquisitors
Budget cuts?
Not everyone can use the force but the force is in everyone is the way it's supposed to be.
@@bz6046 Um, you do realize that is MEANINGLESS, right? If you're not Force-sensitive, you can't do anything with the Force. There is no point in Force-related training if you can't actually use it.
If everyone can use the force how come everyone isn't taught how to use the force in school as a child
The worst part about the scene where the "general" talks to the hologram(lol) people, is when she says "he killed friends of mine"... right that "friend" of yours, the literal father of your child. They are 100% retconning that out aren't they.
her name is Hera and yes this show is doing Kanan dirty
When the review is longer than the episode AND 100x more entertaining
In the Wheel of Time book series, the equivalent of the Force is the One Power. I'll skip the details, but it's established that only some people can use this power. It comes in 2 flavors basically.
There are people that have the potential to learn the power, but if they aren't taught they will never learn to use it.
Then there are people born with "the spark". They WILL use it no matter what, and if they aren't taught to use it correctly they may kill themselves or worse. Those that come out the other end of this awakening stage are called Wilders, and they generally develop issues they need to work through if they learn how to use the Power later.
Wheel of Time sticks to these rules, established in the first book, for the ENTIRE 14 book series.
Remember when stories were written by writers?
Being 60 years old, I can remember the good old days when people could write. They wrote things called "letters", then wrote longer things called "essays" and "articles" in things called "newspapers". These jokers can't even write a sentence on a birthday card.
Unfortunately the Amazon Prime adaptation of the WoT series was equally as disappointing as what Disney has done to Star Wars. Netflix can't help themselves with the Witcher either. If writers are so adamant that they're superior creatively they should just come up with new settings and lore themselves instead of this constant butchering of well loved material.
Stories are written by activists now and the only people stupid enough to enjoy them are other activists
@@ls61nf ugh, don't remind me.
I still can't get the image of Lan Mandragoran screaming and rubbing his nipples cause one dude died.
Dave Filoni stopped being a writer? He has only been writing fan favorite episodes of Star Wars TV for over 15 years.
This was the final straw for me. I’ve stuck through a lot of the garbage that’s come out the past few years but this episode did it. Screw what they’ve done. I hope this writers strike never ends because they don’t deserve to be allowed to write anything ever again
You hung in there for a long time. I was out after 'The Last Jedi' and all ties were severed after 'The Rise of Skywalker'.
As far as I'm concerned, Star Wars for me ends at 'Return of the Jedi'.
@@JBtheWARVillain same. Episodes 1 to 3 were rubbish but as a result of incompetence rather than malicious political posturing. I watched Ep 7, thought "meh", and then gave up after Ep 8.
I think Star Wars died when they canned the extended universe. They completely underestimated how invested the fans were in that.
@@wishingwell12345 Eps 1-3 had potential big picture-wise, but Lucas' ego got the better of him.
The more I think about Ep. 7, the worse it got. When I heard they kept Leia after Fisher died, I didn't bother with Ep. 8. I even pirated it and it's still sitting on a drive unwatched.
Makes me wonder if AI would be better at writing Star Wars
I lost most of my interest after TLJ, it's sad when it happens, but it also feels kind of liberating at the same time. I'm only really interested in the "Legends" (In other words, the *actual* Expanded Universe that Disney threw in the bin, then went back to pick stuff from out of desperation) stuff now, and I watching reviews of the recent shows, I'm glad I made that decision!
Remember during the clone wars show when there was a big focus on some holocron that has all force sensitive children listed in it and they tried everything to protect that and get it back because force sensitive ones are so rare...
well now they could just go out and grab the first kid they see and tell him/her that they will be a jedi, because everyone can be one if they believe hard enough.
Everyone being special makes no one actually special. This is what they've done essentially
Blame George lucas for that
@@mryellow6918 Why? Lucas has nothing to do with this shit.
@@mryellow6918 Blame Disney for this.
@@mytotim8978 hes the one that said midicorians exist in everyone
“Disney NUKES Star Wars”….Makes sense since Ahsoka, Sabine, and Hera nearly nuked a hospital and a city in the last episode.
"It'll be fine" Totally an acceptable risk. Where's the Joker smashing that trigger button when you need him?
Plus the new Rey trilogy that Disney is trying to promote because it turns out that Rey was NEVER special because EVERYONE can get force powers without training or talent so her becoming Luke's replacement is rendered completely mute and pointless... So I suppose not everything is bad in that case.
Gotta love how they managed to take both Ashoka, Sabine and Hera's personalities and water them down to stoic, vapid and snarky. It's like they were purposefully going for a triple kill.
Also, that space battle was just maddening.
And the funniest part of it being the 2D thinking; Star Trek realised this 40 years ago when Kirk when up against Khan.
Also; Family Guy made fun of it in Something, Something, Something, Darkside, their parody of Empire Strikes Back. "We can travel in literally any direction in space so we're going to fly straight at the Imperial ships"
The whole show running and writing is so crappy and it's now just a bad series about women in space 🚀
Sabine didn't need to be a Jedi. They could have had Ahsoka simply helping Sabine be a better Mandalorian and fighter by imparting some of her training and wisdom. Maybe help her develop a slight connection to the Force, like Chirrut had in Rogue One. But they clearly wanted a Sabine vs. Shin rivalry, with lightsabers, so forget the lore. Anyone can be a Jedi now. If you're 60 and you've never shown any Force-sensitivity, don't worry. Just work hard. You can do it.
Or, you know, don't work hard and just suddenly be able to use it.
THatS nOt HoW thE ForCe WOrKs 🤪
watching this makes me miss metachlorians, at least they fit in the pre-established lore of the universe and didn't purposely upend it. certain people are force sensitive and others are not, didn't think you needed to retcon that.
And to think there was a day when people heard about that and looked George Lucas in the eye and said, "Be serious please..."
I kinda liked midichlorians, and in comparison to this new "everyone can use the Force" lore, it seems like a masterful idea 🤣
I don´t think they want to change it to everyone can use the force, they just want Sabine to use it and needed an explanation. Unaware of the damage they do by using this explanation. Again....
I'm guessing that they are going with the concept that Sabine has a higher count of midichlorians than avarage for a not especially Force sensitive person, but she would have never been taken to the Temple back in the day, because it's not high enough for a Jedi. So, she might be somewhat Force sensitive, just not enough... They just don't want to say the word "midichlorian", because some don't even like that concept, so we are stuck with this hand-wavy explanation.
@@z.z.1876 oooor, since it's very important that the Force is female, they just made Sabine force sensitivy because she is the co-lead. It's Disney after all. They probably don't even remember the midichlorian thing. Plus, that's like science, rational stuff. New Star Wars is only about feelings, no science-fiction to it.
This was one of the reasons why I appreciated The Expanse so much. The people that made that show actually knew how physics works and how it would affect space combat, leading to truly awe inspiring (and accurate) battles. I feel legitimately bad for the people that worked on this show that did a decent job, like the CGI artists and music people, to have their work and talent so thoroughly ruined by being included in this trash fire.
The Expanse was outstanding. Kills me to see so many people still don't even know about it. One of the greatest pieces of science-fiction since Babylon 5, for me.
Ah yes, accurate... LOL
Rockinante spinning, rail guns shooting at 45° angle(all of them) and the torps coming straight at the frigate's nose explode ROFL
these writers liked Anakin's spinning in TPM way too much.
About the training "montage": It was pointless to have The Doctor tell her she's useless in the recap if you were just gonna have Sabine say it IN the episode, AGAIN. Secondly, Sabine looked like a game journalist trying to get past the tutorial where she's meant to learn how to parry while having the reaction time of a slug on NyQuil.
The more frustrating thing is that Sabine wasn’t nearly this incompetent in the animated Rebels.
She was a weapons expert and an artist. She wielded the dark saber. She defeated another Mandalorian to prove a point with said saber and has faced countless enemies in combat but for the sake of story growth (and maybe to avoid the Rey Mary Sue accusations) they’re making her look incompetent so she can have a moment of success later. At this point it’s just bad writing to ignore things we already know about a character and then take them away…
Why does Disney always seem to learn the wrong lesson?
This is a good point.
Sabine is getting the "Hero's Journey" treatment. I'm all for it.
lack of consistency, in the animated series she had NO PROBLEM taking out fighters in a tailgun. SUre these new ship could have better pilots.
@@Filterdeez If she is an adult and was raised as a Mandalorian, she should have completed her journey a long time ago. A bit late to figure it all out over 8 episodes.
They change the personality from competent war hero about 40 to insufferable spoiled bratt... And, two days after, to padawan...
So consistent...
In Wrath of Khan, Kirk uses Khan's 2- dimensional thinking to turn the tide of the battle..using 23rd century experience and strategy to beat a superior yet out of date 20th century mind ...from an era when writing was great.
Nicholas Meyer wasn't a ST fan, however he took the time to research and figure out it's appeal to fans and how to make it appeal to the general audience. He respected the lore, fans and non-fans. That's not allowed in 2023.
I cancelled my Disney + subscription after Obi Wan Kenobi. Looks like Disney is giving me more reason to be happy I made said decision? I knew this show would not live up to George Lucas’s Legacy.
No, this show is actually good. Disparu is jumping the shark. His MO isn’t as good when the show doesn’t suck.
@@davidwindellit may look good but as far as making sense per everything that George did it just doesn't work right.
Cancelled as well long ago. Hell, It's gotten so bad I dont even torrent any more. lol
@@davidwindellYour Definition of’Good” is not the same as Mine….
@@Beuwen_The_Dragon I’d like to honestly hear your real critique of what’s wrong with this show that ISNT wrong with the original trilogy.
Comedy moment of the year was Ahoska going outside to fight space ships with her lightsabers!
This would be embarrassing if it was a CW show, but this is supposed to save Star Wars!
It was a remake from the cartoon when plo khoon did it. But it was explained becauae of his alien physiology he could survive out of the ship for a short period of time. Also he had some type of a breather mask over his face.
I quite like this show, and have been defending it against a lot of nonsense in the comments here; but that was, without doubt, one of the most ridiculous scenes in any SW show or movie so far. It is up there with smuggling a young Leia past prison guards by hiding her under an overcoat...
Comparable to Space Poppins Leah
You know it happened in both clone wars and rebel series right? Cry as much as you like, but jedi's fighting in space happened before 🤷♂️
@@kravernarDo you think that makes it less dumb? "Those dumb cartoons did it first" isn't much of a defense.
Disparu: "if everybody is special, no one is"
Wokism: "does... not... compute..."
Perfect title.
The part of this episode that bothered me the most was actually Hera talking to the senators.
She talks about Thrawn and gets rightly called out for wasting resources on a personal quest.
All she had to do in that meeting was say "Imperial loyalists just stole a super star destroyer hyperdrive!! I tracked it and im taking a fleet to investigate. This is a threat we CANNOT ignore, if you disagree your welcome to start filling out the paperwork to have me removed from command. General Syndulla out."
Disney writing for you aha
See what annoyed the fuck out of me is that she says "Thrawn isn't like other Imperials" but doesn't follow it up with the reasons why. I'm pretty sure she'd have had more support if the senators (at least those who aren't Imperial loyalists, presumably) had known that Thrawn is a man capable of deducing entire battle strategies from his opponents by analysing artwork from his opponent's homeworld.
So true. Even add to it by pointing out that they have no idea how long this has been going on or how many have been shipped. I mean it isn’t like the Empire doesn’t have a history of constructing super weapons or anything.
Buddy asking for a scoutship or a small strikeforce would have been enough for an opening move, asking for a fleet on smth that might not even require it is dumb, especialy when she had no arguments ready. Thrawn is a military genius who was trusted by the emperor despite the fact that he was not human! Him being involved in any way is reason enough to be worried!
@@Raximus3000I mean, in Heir to the Empire, the Republic was skeptical too, at first. Though really more of Thrawn's rank as a Grand Admiral, believing him to just be a surviving Moff with delusions of grandeur.
I'm surprised you forgot to mention that turbo lasers explode in space. These are lasers of light, they continue until they hit something, not physical munitions with exploding cores.
I was wondering how they managed to get proximity detonators inside laser blasts. I'm still baffled.
Yeah, that bugged me too. Turbo Lasers are not Flak cannons.
We're all surprised, the show is Garbage, the writers watched one documentary on WW2 aerial combat and decided they know how Lasers made of light and Spaceships work in space...
Might have missed it, but the Laser Cannons on the transport which carried the hyper drive core had the same stupid "flak" setting allready.
star wars has never followed to rules of science ever. i truly don't understand why some of you seem to be surprised when star wars does what it has always done.
But how did that ship have so much gravitational force for Ahsoka to actually walk on it??
Magnetic boots? Have you seen the Clone Wars? There are lots of scenes where Jedi and Clones spacewalk on ships. Also the Star Wars universe has always had artificial gravity inside ships as well as antigrav technology being commonplace. Ahsoka walking on the ship made total sense lol
Look there are so many things worth criticising that I consider anyone trying to 'gotcha' on space physics in Star Wars to be an unmitigated moron. There are noises, and fiery explosions in space in Star Wars. There always have been. It's not real science fiction.
@@mcflyingfury and then she turned the boots off when she jumped over one of the ships, and turned them back on just in time to grip the hull?? Get outta here, man.
Yes, artificial gravity >>inside
@@SrbijaCGumm, yes? Is that a problem? Have you watched the Clone Wars and seen people flying around on jetpacks, how do you think they are controlling them? There are countless times in Star Wars where even non force sensitive people control extremely complicated machinery seemingly with ease and without using any physical controls. I'd guess through the use of HUDs and blinking, although I suppose in a universe with cyborgs it's entirely possible they have some sort of interface directly to their brains. Regardless, Ahsoka has the force anyway, it would be super simple to flip a switch, jump, and then flip a switch again lol.
As far as your second point, what about interdictor cruisers and mines? They project artificial gravity wells large enough to pull ships out of hyperspace, and comparatively they are quite small. Who's to say they can't project the artificial gravity slightly outside the ship's hull as well? To my knowledge, none of these technologies are ever actually explained or their limits explored, so you don't really have anything to complain about.
@@Blisterdude123 Thank you. I'd even understand if they were complaining about things we've never seen before and break pre-established rules, but none of this does haha
Grogu could demonstrate force powers and Ahsoka refused to train him. Why would she invest her time in Sabine? Doh!
Because sabine chose the saber not the armour
Cos they used to bang
because sabine has a vigina duhhhh
Because Grogu very clearly wanted to stay with Mando instead of training. Sabine actually wants to learn
@@mryellow6918 But she chose both...
Here's a tip for Disney.
Smart enemies versus smart heroes is fun and enjoyable. Adds extra weight and tension to everything. A stupid hero versus even stupider enemies is pointless as you lose all stakes in the story because no matter how stupid the hero is the enemy has to be stupider. Best approach is to make your enemy just a little smarter then the hero. Make sure the hero makes all the right moves but the enemy just is that one step ahead. Always best to have a hero fighting an uphill battle then fighting down one.
That's called tension and according to the woke Disney handbook, that just shows a weaker side to your strong female character.
Yeah this is more like a parody of Star Wars now. These shows and movies just don't feel like Star Wars. Yeah some of the visuals are good but everything feels like a rip off of the original or prequel trilogies. It's sad that we can't find people to honor the originals and still make something fresh and interesting.
You would think that Disney would have figured out that good writing is one of the key elements that makes a show GOOD!
@@JB-yb4wn Ah but writing something good takes a long time. With what we've seen I can already tell that Thrawn is going to have an IQ of a goldfish who died from drowning.
But that's not the age demographic they're aiming for. Try lowering your mental age expectations into single digits and you'll know who Disney is targeting like a Storm Trooper.
You know where I´m at mentally with this godforsaken franchise? I feel so bad for the bad guys. I literally watched this whole episode in absolute fear and terror for the bad guys´ lives. I was so afraid they were going to kill off the potential Starkiller character, or waste away the Shin girl in that dogfight. Im completely done with Disney´s portrayal of a Hero, at this point they have become the true villains. These guys constantly abuse and change canon rules on a whim, wave off scenes of tension and gravity, take their victories for granted, have apparent infinite resources and indestructible ships, and have unbreakable plot armor and unwavering plot convenience. Poor poor Empire, they are fighting on SUCH an uneven playing field. I mean the Empire literally has to build an entire hyperspace ring thing with TURBO CANNONS just to try and take down a single ship. Can you imagine the sheer hopelessness they must feel? That no matter what you do, no matter how many death stars and bases and weapons and projects you build, these mfers just show up, jump the shark, and defeat you without rhyme or reason. It all starts to make sense if you think about this in such a way that the protagonists we are following are actually the bad guys.
So, why did Sabine never say something like... "I ran countless rebel missions with a blind Jedi named Kanan, he didn't tell me exactly what he was going through, but I do have some exposure to this." Of course, Ahsoka knows this, so she could have said the same thing... "remember Kanan, how he could sense what was happenig without his sight?" Nah, it's like it never happened.
A man being able to impart some wisdom on to a woman? That's not allowed anymore.
Man that was such a wasted opportunity I cannot come to describe. I would go as far as to say it's utterly out of character for Sabine not to think of Kanan in that situation.
The point being missed is why is her training being conducted in this way, if she's not force sensitive?
Ahsoka should just be teaching plain saber combat without the force relevant topics or drills.
@@AmbiguousMan494 Yeah, it like there's some unspoken secret between the 3 of them that we're no privy to. Some reason why it's being done. Maybe a big reveal in a later episode?
@@12walker92 I'm guessing it's written into Disney writing guidelines now: "A woman can not be taught anything from a white man on screen, even if it's just a vague reference from the past."
Wow arseoka has really got to grips with facial expression and acting she now has the expressive ability of a plank of wood instead of a lump of clay, it's like watching a bunch of cardboard cut outs, there should be subtitles indicating which ones are not droids
Elcor subtitles would really help this series.
The smug is strong with her.
What i don´t get is, that Rosario Dawson is a good actress. Not great or exceptional, don´t get me wrong, but still a good one.
I can't belive we have the droid, the literal robot in the show, is talking with more of an inflection and emotion in his voice than the 2 planks in the ship with him. They both sound exactly the same, so droll and boring. Cudos to Tennant for actually acting his part.
5:32 Ahsoka has the ability to "teleport" or run really fast (?) in this scene but she decides to go for a jog escaping the massive blast in the first episode. I guess she wasn't "believing" the force that day!
apparently she can use force on herself to jump in space and somehow land back on the ship, so I guess she really was feeling it today.
The jump looked like it came right out of Cinderella too. So Disney.
And the sad thing is that Sabine was actually a good character in the Rebels animated show. Disney's trend seems to be to take animated characters and ruin them beyond belief.
There's a reason why the empire & Jedi were looking for "force sensitive" children. Not everyone can control/access the force.
there was a thing in the sequel trilogy where they messed with how the Force works. BUt.... not sure how that applies here. Or how that particular retcon had any meaning at all. 'cause the gist of it was that the primary effect of the Jedi order was to act as a barrier preventing people from accessing the force. So destroying that effect is good and makes it so more people can use the Force... or something. Yeah, not everyone. Also, the implication was that a lot of the people who couldn't use the Force with the barrier in place... would have only had meager ability without it. Force power has a scale to it, the barrier only blocked those with weak ability.
@@marhawkman303The Jedi weren't a barier. Tjey were the door. They were the only way even Force Sensitive people were able to use it. The guys with high Midichlorian counts can't use with no training. The guy with low... they have less chance.
@@dancorneanu9144 Hmm.. not sure really the cause, just that the end state of something Rey did was seemingly making it easier to use the Force.
Lucas: Everybody can do it [use the Force]. It's just the Jedi who take the time to do it. Like yoga. Also like karate.

@@Ruylopez778 But not everyone can use it at the same degree. We all can do karate, not all can be masters. Potential. If you take a normal guy, he would have to train way harder, far longer to not be a patato.

You know, I may have seen rebels a long time ago, but from what I recall, Sabine was a capable figter by the end WITHOUT being able to use The Force. So...WHY DOES SHE NEED IT NOW?
Because 'The force is female" according to these raging feminists and this boy looking entity is supposed to be one, so must....become,,,,force,,user,,, against all logic.
because "the force is female" and that makes about as much sense as this show
Only a minute into the video, but in defence of the Star Whales, they were introduced in Rebels and were the main reason Ezra and Thrawn got stranded in another galaxy since Ezra has a strong ability to connect with animals through the Force. They can jump through Hyper Space and can be very dangerous to passing ships.
EDIT: Two minutes into the video, and the show has already screwed up lore. Basic lightsaber training and forms was taught to Sabine by Kanan and Ezra during Season 3 of Rebels when she had to learn to use the Dark Saber to help free her people, the Mandalorians. She wasn't that talented since she didn't have the Force, but she was good enough since she was already a warrior. I'm not sure what Ahsoka taught her after Kanan and Ezra, but clearly it wasn't much.
EDIT 2: Just got to the part where Jacen Syndulla is introduced, who legitimately has more reason to be trained as a Jedi by Ahsoka considering his father was Kanan Jarrus, an actual Jedi Knight. Why is Sabine being trained as a Jedi when we actually have a perfect candidate to become a Padawan already?
They were actually introduced in The Clone Wars around the beginning of season 1.
I think it's a point of extreme hubris on filonis part to put the whales in the show with no explanation. Few mainstream people watched rebels, and fewer still remember the whales.
>but in defence of the Star Whales, they were introduced in Rebels
Stopped reading right there, if Disney's current caliber of *ahem* 'writers' expects every single person who tunes in to their show to have watched a bunch of cartoons to understand what is going on, well I hate to break it to you Filloni fans, but it's just lazy writing.
@@thehoerscorral8565 So you like to know nothing before seeing any show and that is your standard? Just out of interest, did you enjoy Marvel's Infinity War movie, or did you not like it because it assumed you knew about the characters and the general set up at the start of the movie?
Also, what about the space wales confused you in this episode? Did they do anything that required you to have watched Rebels? Or is the fact that they just wantonly existed enough to put you off?
Hate to break it to you, but it's just lazy criticism on your part.
@@boomer.beasley how can you forget the whales, they´re the ones that killed Ezra and Trawhn, by jumping in hyperspace with a broken ship
This is the best commentary 😆Also amazing how the story went from the Jedi council having secret files on new generations of Jedi and where they were located to “anyone can be a Jedi!” They literally created a participation trophy for anyone to become a Jedi.
Even Yoda once said, “the force resides in all living things” to the clones but he never said “any clone can use the force”
They take away anything special by making everything special...Instead of everyone finding that special thing about themselves they just claim whatever special thing they observe and desire or whatever may gain them attention. It's horrible, but everyone just keeps clapping...
Yup this is what I've been thinking too. Glad I cancelled because this really is participation trophy for everyone at this point
dude they say it in the episode. tHE force is in everyone, bu talent is important. The kids sensible to the force were trained as jedi. Sabine isnt one and wouldnt qualify by that standar as stablished in this episode. But peolpe can still open to the force but have to work triple as hard.
@@truesoulghost2777 I know right?
@@SN00PICUS yeah…they took the “everyone is special” saying which also leads to people knowing “special” doesn’t mean the same thing it used to. Especially with a reboot like this show.
There is no friction in space! Unless the force of the laser that hit the ship was exactly equal and opposite to the ship's engines, they would continue to drift at a constant speed and bearing! Also Ahsoka pushing off the ship would put it into a spin, as would the laser blasts hitting that one wing.
There’s no Co2 in space!!! But the spaceships blow up and make fire in space in the entire time, every star wars movies!!
The space whales do, in fact, move faster than that. In Rebels it's established they can travel through Hyperspace.
The fact that this series relies so heavily on Rebels knowledge and nostalgia is, however, a big flaw in its design
It's also funny that, despite this, this show remembers so little about Rebels. The last time Ezra and Ahsoka saw each other, he saved her life and she promised to find him, now she couldn't care less about Ezra and only cares about stopping Thrawn, who she never even met. Also, on a smaller note but i can't get it put of my head, Sabine helped Kanan train Ezra as a Jedi, she saw him trained to deflect blaster bolts while blindfolded, she should know damn well how Ahsoka expects her to fight when she can't see, even if she doesn't think she can do it.

I am convinced the space battle was choreographed by a six year old playing with toys in their backyard. They didn't have enough ships so they picked up some toy WW2 fighters and put those in for bad guys. That explains why they didn't think of the enemy ships surrounding them and stopping at distance.. although even a 6 year old probably would have noticed the 3rd dimension issue.
George Lucas deliberately wanted the fights in space to be like WW2 aircraft, with TIE fighters attacking the Millennium Falcon to be like Spitfires attacking German bombers. So it turns out the people who wrote the that battle and who deliberately echoed WW2 fighters know more about Star Wars than you do.
@@cwam1701e I do know that, thanks. That helps this scene how exactly? The ships disabled. in. space. dogfight over. Taking inspiration from something is not the same thing as directly copying it. Its the difference between having the jedi be influenced by Samurai and just sticking them in samurai armor training with boken.... oh wait, they did that to in this.
@@StaringIntoAbyssno, no you see George Lucas said he wanted the space battles to look like WW2 war movie so even though they have access to technology that makes doing that stupid in some situations they still have to fight like that. That's also why the bombers in TLJ were great! /s
@@StaringIntoAbyss Taking the analogy literally would result in one of two things depending on the analogous objects. If all objects are aircraft, the disabled aircraft is going to crash or be hilariously easy to make crash. If the disabled craft is a ship, it's the same situation as a spaceship, except worse. An ocean-going ship would drift around a bit but mostly stay in one spot. A spaceship will at least keep drifting at the same speed it got disabled at. Simply put, the "inspired by" defense means the scene is even more outlandish than it already is.
@@cwam1701eThat's a piss poor defense for ignoring physics
This episode/review just made me realize something interesting: the rise of skywalker confirms that finn is force sensitive yet at no point did either rey or leia decided to train him to use it (and he only tries to mention it to rey once they are "dying") but ahsoka is training sabine even though she has no force potential. Very odd.

Concerning the idea that anyone can be a Jedi, one of the writers must have been Syndrome.
“And when everyone’s super…no one will be.”
That's what I said to a couple friends who tried to defend it.
Sabine's shooting skills qualify her for a Strom Trooper position.
I love how A MANDALORIAN needs to be told how to aim.
And she still can't.
It's amazing how there are still people who defend this and are excited for new releases, oh to be so incredibly daft.
Loving the world "daft," it takes me back to my childhood, back in the old country. Where we used to have mad fun being so daft and foolhardy. hehehe
So many people eating this disney garbage up , but sadly they are the majority and the ones that see it for the trash that it is are the minority 😢
Have you actually watched this show and not Disparu’s “review”? Because he’s BLATANTLY lying in about 85% of his talking points in this review (the very first “critique” he presents is clearly dishonest as the prior episode shows that when they travel in hyper space they move much faster, and it was in an episode of Mandalorian he reviewed for good measure… his accuracy goes down from there). His stuff is good for She Hulk and Gotham Knights, but Ashoka is actually good.
There are a large number of normies out there who will happily consume whatever the corporations put before them as long as its vaguely "nostalgic" and saturated with CGI to distract their tiny minds.
@@davidwindellI watched the first 2 episodes and agree with him shits ridiculous. Sabine should have died from that stab wound but lightsabers aren't deadly anymore in Disney Star Wars. If this show is good then the new Sequels were masterpieces 😂😂
Sabine and the force makes me think of the Darksaber in Mando season 3. Remember how all the Disney Star Wars defenders told us there's no way Mando could just hand it over to Bo-Katan after he lost it to the droid because that wouldn't be honorable? Then a few episodes later the show uses that exact excuse and all the defenders were mysteriously absent? It's going to be the same kind of thing here.
One slash of a light saber destroys starship
Sabine gets stabbed with one just a minor inconvenience
Love how they keeping it “consistent”
To be fair, and I'm not excusing all the issues with this episode, that one scene didn't bother me at all. A lightsaber is fully capable of slicing the wing of an unshielded starfighter (I'm assuming those Saettas are unshielded, otherwise you are completely right). Recall in Clone Wars Yoda blew up a CIS tank - significantly more heavily armored than an ordinary starfighter - with a single lightsaber slash. Then keep in mind that starfighters likely store blaster gas and fuel in their wings, as well as lots of electronics, and it makes total sense it blew up from that deep slice into its wing.
The annoying part is having people surviving lightsaber stabs left and right. They just keep disrespecting my man Qui-Gon.
@@mcflyingfury yeah that’s what annoys me too lightsabers are supposed to be op one slash or stab and you dead but Disney just be nerfing them grand inquisitor stabbed in chest lives black inquisitor stabbed and lives Finn slashed up the back lives qui gon gut checked dies
Well wait your problem is the saber is too powerful or not powerful enough? Can you pick one lane thanks lolol
@@MADDØG36C It's also annoying because none of those situations were called for. There are so many ways to end a fight without stabbing lol. Think of how many times people in the Clone Wars got force pushed into a wall or something and got knocked out but survived. That at least makes sense and if the villain is under time pressure they might leave without verifying the kill. But for some reason with Disney it's always stabby stabby smh
edit: also black inquisitor 🤣
@@darkthorpocomicknight7891 my issue is the lack of consistency I think they should be super powerful but it just seems like they are only as powerful as the plot needs at that moment
i love how they are making the force be less and less special by making it so everyone can use it. If everyone could use it then the Jedi and Sith would had massive armies of these users and it would be more commonly used across the entire universe. I thought nothing could outdo the midi-chlorians nonsense yet here comes Disney with Ahsoka to prove me wrong.
Honestly, super predictable. These are the people who believe any form of competence-based exclusivity or uniqueness is inherently bad... it was only a matter of time before they started acting like "anyone can use the force, just believe!"
Just like todays modern 'inclusive' identity politics.
To paraphrase - when everybody is special, no one is
Midichlorians are not nonsense if you exercise your brain cells for more than a second. It's like you old retards have no idea what a conduit is.
I mean the sith had an army until the rule of two came along by Darth bane, also the Jedi were never meant to have armies, more so keepers of peace.
@@bubaweez2309 did the Sith had an army of force users? i highly doubt it. It would be like calling the storm troopers "force users". Why wouldn't the Sith just take advantage of this and have an army of force users regardless of how weak they would be or not as just fodder?
The Jedi regardless of what they were supposed to be they could have had way bigger numbers, how better to preserve peace than having more people capable of keeping said peace? Nah, just stretch their numbers as thin as possible that is the better approach for sure.
Spike saying: "Oh I'm sorry. I didn't care." was the best part of the entire episode.
I get the feeling that the people behind this show wanting sabine to be able to use the force are some of the same people that liked Rey. There was a male main character that could use the force in a story. They don’t like that and now they’re bending the story, canon and lore like a pretzel.
What better way than to retcon the entire fiction and say that everyone in the universe is a Jedi and/or a Sith waiting to bring the galaxy into a new Old Republic video game.
Dave Feloni is showrunner here right?
You don't understand: they're acting at normal speed, you see them doing everything in slow motion because they're so dense that space-time warps around them.
Mmh maybe they expect you to watch the show at 2x speed? 🤷♂️
This show didn’t save starwars, this show nailed the coffin shut, glued the seals and buried it 6 feet deep.
RIP - Starwars
1977 - 2023
Taken from us at such a young age.

Remember when turbo lasers were powerful enough to literally take out fighters in one shot and be used as the main weapons during planetary bombardments?
Pepperage Farm Remembers.
So does the entire Rebel Alliance in the first three films.
While I greatly admire the enthusiasm at slandering Disney, as well as the Pepperidge Farm joke, the space combat in this episode actually made sense.
First, the ship is shielded, which makes all the difference. Turbolasers seem to store enough energy to essentially be anywhere from a hundred to a thousand pound bomb when hitting an unshielded object. However, the Millennium Falcon in A New Hope was struck by at least 12 turbolasers ( up to 21 if you include off-screen shots that may or may not have hit) before the ship even warned Han that the deflector shields were about to be lost. It then sustained several more hits before they made the hyperspace jump, and no damage to the hull was sustained. There are many other examples throughout the original and prequel trilogies of turbolasers not dealing a whole lot of damage to shielded targets.
This is compounded by the fact that the turbolasers being fired by the Eye of Sion are airburst (spaceburst?) munitions. These types of turbolasers are seen frequently in the original and prequel trilogies, and were never very successful. In the Battle of Naboo, several airburst turbolasers from the Lucrehulk-class droid control ship detonate just a few meters away from N-1 starfighters, and don't damage or even buffet them at all. Such weapons seem to be more useful as area denial against unshielded craft (something the Republic definitely could have used against swarms of vulture droids). However, shielded ships have never really been threatened by a few airburst turbolasers.
While I do find it dumb that Hera was flying directly in the very limited firing arc of the hyperdrive transport ship, the fact that the Phantom took no damage could be explained away by its shields and her piloting skill. After all, the transport only had laser cannons (much less powerful than turbolasers) and not a single shot actually hit the Phantom. Ahsoka's diplomatic ship, while facing turbolasers, was likely modified by the Jedi to have strong shielding (better than the Phantom at least), and keep in mind the ship was not using significant power for any other systems (it was flying slowly so Huyang could get his scan, and it wasn't firing weapons) so the shields could draw a lot of power.
While Disney does have a bad track record with Star Wars space combat, this show has done adequately so far and at least doesn't break any pre-existing conventions or stray too far from normalcy. Now Sabine using the Force? That's an issue. But a modified Jedi diplomat ship flying through an airburst turbolaser flak wall with a Jedi piloting it? Not really.
My favorite line in the episode was Sabine saying she knows enough about lightsabers to "get by" 2 days after she basically dies!
Set Lightsabers to ''Razzle Dazzle''
She knows getting stabbed by a lightsaber hurts. That's all she needs to know!
@@neesh2251 I agree. I know that getting shot hurts, so that makes me a good marksman!
35:09 I do want to correct you on this statement, as if you cut the engines in the vacuum of space, you will not hover stationary. You will continue moving in the direction you were going! I just wanted to expand your knowledge! I love your videos Disparu!
So glad I discovered this channel! Your reviews are hilarious, better than the actual shows. Your Willow reviews were legendary.😂😂😂
Lol Ya he is funny asf. The willow reviews were great
It does not make any sense that Ahsoka, who was trained extensively AND was force sensitive, would coerce someone she is supposed to care about to put themselves into a dangerous situation they are clearly not equipped for. The Mandalorian fighting techniques were adapted to fight against force wielders. Play to her strengths rather than shoe horn her into something she is not suited to. This is a ridiculous "anyone can be anything" storyline which feels good, but does not coincide with reality. People should be allowed to pursue things, but there are certain circumstances where the juice is not worth the squeeze. This is not even a case of Sabine WANTING to pursue this though. She is being literally groomed into it against her wishes. This to me seems like the equivalent of handing someone bound to a wheelchair a rifle and making them parachute into combat on D-Day. They may have the heart but you are setting them up to be canon fodder.
Also, this interpretation of all the characters is far to stoic and contemplative. I can MAYBE give Ahsoka a pass for it ( even though that was never really her personality as we have seen her before ) but for Hera and Sabine it just makes them boring. It seems like the one rule given to the actresses was "never smile". I can see an argument being made that they were cartoon characters before and are more realistic for live action, but they chose to make the aesthetic of the characters every cartoon accurate and to have their personalities so different is jarring to me.
Strong whamen characters ohhh hell yeah!!!!!!! They tried to make them all men, which doesnt work.
Except this is already where Sabine's story was going at the end of Rebels. She had received training by Kanan, and Ezra left his light Sabre for her. It seems they intend for her to become one of the very few (one or two so far?) Mandalorians who are also Jedi? It is actually quite a natural development - two people go off on a quest together, one of them is a Jedi, and one has been exploring using the force. In the circumstances it makes perfect sense that they would become master and apprentice. The fact that it didn't work is also in keeping with what has gone before.
Also, you say Sabine doesn't want to pursue this; so why, when she was attacked, did she try to defend herself with a light sabre instead of a blaster or other Mandalorian weaponry/equipment?
@@cwam1701e She EXPLICITLY gave up the Darksaber and showed zero desire to replace it. She showed ZERO Force ability. If she had ANY, Ezra would have been the first, second, and third person to say so.
As for the show, she defended herself with a lightsaber because the writers are MORONS. That is NOT something Sabine would have done. Actually THINK and judge the characters based on what we've seen them do, not make excuses for the newest thing. Sabine's first instinct in Rebels would have been to reach for a blaster, yet the writers stupidly didn't have her have one on her (something I CAN'T take seriously when it's hard to remember when she was entirely unarmed and unarmored).
This isn't Ahsoka from the cartoon series. You'll start banging your head against the wall if you keep believing that.
@@John-fk2ky So why did Ezra leave her his light sabre then? To keep it for him when he got back? or to suggest to her that maybe she should try again with the force.
Just because you would not have written a scene the way someone else did does not make them a moron and you a genius.
Something you didn't mention either is that when she tries to move the cup and takes a sip, her cup is obviously empty. How difficult would it have been to put a few sips of water so it would look realistic. She acts like her mouth is full but doesn't even swallow
The thing is, a Star Wars story about someone who can't use the Force could be really good. She could learn to fly like Han Solo, or fight like General Grievious. She could learn to use what little talent she has to face off against people much stronger and more skilled. Brandon Sanderson did that sort of thing in The Rithmatist and White Sand.
But that would require good writers and characters who can accept their limits, and that just wouldn't be empowering.
Exactly, they don’t want limits on any character everyone reacts to everything the exact same
I actually like the idea of characters without any Force sensitivity being trained using Jedi techniques still, because it's something I remember cropping up in a few places in older Dark Horse comics. It's a character journey I, at least, would find quite interesting. Someone stripped down to the bare essentials, pure physical skill and prowess, like an actual martial artist/warrior monk.
Sure, Sabine has no force ability at all, as Huyang kept saying. I can't help thinking how much more narratively satisfying it would've been to have either him or Ahsoka turn around and say 'that doesn't mean we can't train you.'
@@Blisterdude123 Ahsoka: "To train in the Force you must learn to fight blind."
Sabine: "But I have no Force ability."
=
Master: "To fight blind you must see first."
Blind Student: "But I was born blind."
Ahsoka is doing a great imitation of nearly any Morgan Freeman wise old man character but with a touch of pretentiousness. Seems the real imitation is the writers have no originality and need to rip off everything done by Lucas
The Force spoke through the midi-chlorians, allowing certain beings to use the Force if they were sensitive enough to its powers. In order to gauge an individual's potential in the Force, blood tests were used to estimate the number of midi-chlorians within the subject's cells.
I like to imagine you're a droid onboard the characters' ship who they can't see, criticizing their every move in a fourth wall break.
Seeing Genevieve O'Reilly reprise her role in Ahsoka is kinda depressing.
We rooted for her in Andor because she was a genuinely good person with a cause we could all get behind but she was unfortunately stuck in between a rock and a hard place and we wanted her to prevail.
Seeing her in this show reminded me that everything she worked for, the sacrifices she had to make were all for nothing because she ends up being the Chancellor of a incompetent corrupted government that will ultimately collapse to the successor of the enemy she spent most of her life trying to overthrow.
Thanks Lucasfilm, you managed to make me care deeply about a background character but ultimately made her a loser because of your dogshit sequel trilogy.
At least she's super hot
that's literally been the entire plot of the new republic even in legends material, that's its a bureachratic mess and isn't perfect. bros mad that institutions and politics isn't perfect, with plenty of nuance and grey areas. are you actually mad that something has proper development? and that the new republic is meant to symbolise the politics of today? is all you want a happy ending with everyone skipping with rainbows and sunflowers? if this is your level of storytelling then maybe marvel phase 4 is the only thing you should watch. jesus fuckin christ. the marvel effect has taken full swing
I thought this as well, not the Mon Mothma I remember from Andor. So she is in part at fault with the rise of The Final...I mean the First Order
The annoying thing for me, as someone who quite liked Ahsoka's character in the cartoons, is that she's become a really dull character here. I mean, I can see her being a bit sobered by the intervening years, but as with Luke, I can't see someone with her indomitable spirit being emotionally neutered in the way she's depicted here.
I loved the part when Ahsokactold Sabine something like “you’re going to need the force to face what’s coming”. That’s great. A person who walked away from the Jedi saying this. A non Jedi training a non Jedi to be a Jedi. Or has she forgotten that you don’t need the force to kill force users. Order 66 anyone? How about Jango Fett who killed multiple force users. Sabine needs to combine her MANDALORIAN weapons with the lightsaber and be who she is instead of this “training to be a Jedi” bs.
THANK YOU. In the darksaber training arc, Fenn Rau literally gave her Mandalorian vambraces with technology specifically meant to combat force users (repulsors, grappling lines, paralyzing darts). She doesn't need the Force, she just needs to learn how to swordfight lol
Hell, Ahsoka personally fought General Grievous on multiple occasions, and got her ass kicked by Cad Bane so she knows damn well how dangerous a non-force user can be.
@@BoopaKing Not to mentioned she was roughed up by the Death Watch, so she has personal experience with Mandalorians. Also this show is concurrent with Season 3 of the Mandalorian, so by this point she has also fought Din Djarin.
Well you see. Jango killed a bunch of jedi with a rock. That rock was very special. 😂
The biggest nuking since Indiana Jones nuked the fridge.
He's better off being The Fugitive than remaining near Disney.
She's in space but her cartwheel arcs like there is gravity. What the hell.
lol true
Conclusion: This show is infinitely better with a DIsparu breakdown.
To be fair, the original Star Wars established that "Turbo Lasers" were for capital ship engagements and smaller craft ("snub fighters") were too small and fast for the larger, heavy Turbo Laser turrets to target and track.
However you would have thought given the loss of TWO Death Stars and multiple Star Destroyers to those pesky little fighters, that the Empire would have fitted some sort of rapid tracking close in weapon systems to deal with precisely that threat.
They just seem to be normal turbo lasers the with flak
yeah, you would think the empire would of went the unsc halo route and mounted a bunch of anti spacecraft missiles onto their star destroyers.
Disney doesn't learn from past mistakes...
Thing is that despite being slower to aim and fire, Turbolasers were still a severe Threat to starfighters, as they could one shot a shielded X wing or Y Wing bomber.
Ashoka’s shuttle may have better shields than an X wing, but it is still a comparatively slow target. Those turbolaser blasts would have immediately overwhelmed the shields and destroy that shuttle. And whatever blaster pistols those fighters were equipped with were absolutely useless…
@@Beuwen_The_Dragonstar wars has always overexarated the capabilities of fighter and bombers against capital ships. In all honesty the largest ships would be immune to most fighter and bomber weapons unless they were deliberately targeting weak sections like exposed superstructure, engine banks or weapon batteries.
Very Very bad. What broke it for me is giving an already over powered character even more power that just so happens to be a BOSS girl.
1. Mandalorian armor and training
2. Gifted Technocrat superior intelligence "who needs R2-D2"
3. Wolverine like survivability and endurance.
4. NOW she's going to have Jedi abilities
The Mad Goose Wizard ... a true MVP of Disney Star Wars.
Mostly since we do not see him.
I'm not a swordsman expert, but why is the robot training Sabine to strike the blade? Should you train to hit the person holding the weapon.
Nononono not in disney star wars :)
He appeared to be teaching her to strike with certain angles. I am not a swordsman expert whatsoever but I think if you hit your opponent incorrectly with a blade it could be less lethal or even deflect off (maybe?). I do not see how that applies to a lightsaber, which does not have a cutting edge. Maybe something about properly blocking your opponents weapon? I still don't know how it applies
For the same reason markers and blockers are employed in boxing or fencing. You offer a comparatively small target or set of targets to be struck (for speed or for for precision or both) *without* endangering student or instructer. Not the holo-sabers used are banded and placed apart at different angles and Dr. Bot is calling sequences of strikes.
He's training her in a kata.
My biggest issues with this one were...
1. They gave quotes and beats from Luke to Sabine from episode 4. " I can't see a thing " and the blast visor helmet... and the " I got one! " fight with fighter craft.
2. The ineffectiveness of starship blasters. The ship with Sabine and ahsoka is completely dead in the water... yet when it gets shot it doesn't take ANY damage. The blaster bolts hit the hull but no panel gets scorched, dented, damaged... yet a glancing hit on any small fighter results in instant death and explosion.
Sabine:"I don't understand what is going on. Will you explain this to me?"
Also Sabine:"Why are you speaking to me as if I don't understand what is going on?"
"I want to be a jedi". "I know you do but you got...dangly bits."
This show is proving that Dave can not make a Star Wars show without George
yet a lot of his fans don't seem friendly towards that reality, unfortunately.
Dave & George had Jedi Master Plo Koon fight in deep space with out a space suit , on top of a disabled escape pod , in the Clone Wars season 1 episode 2 …along with 2 clone troopers who at least had their armor…it may have been written by Dave , but George approved it , as it was still under his watch … also in episode 3 of that season George approved giant space rays , that Anakin , Ahsoka , Plo koon & gold squadron had to avoid in a nebula … so why wouldn’t he approve Dave creating the giant space whales.
@@rodneylindsey849 You do know that there is a bit of a difference between the 2, don't you. Plo Koon is not Mandalorian or Human. It is explained by the species he was and his equipment. The fight didn't go the same way. The problem isn't the space whales, but the plot surrounding them. George was there to dial down the Filoni inclinations. Wanting to kill Ashoka or arguing about the writers keeping things more in line to his vision and movies.
The mad goose wizard cut is funny every time
Yup literally doesnt get old for me hahahahaa
@@shadf7902 I wait for it lol
I'm convinced that before writing, the.writer asked themselves how can i remove all personality from these characters to make them as dull as possible
How do you write women in SW?
I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability. - D+ SW “writers” probably
Remind me, why did the Jedi not start training anyone in the Force after they were small children? Does no one learn from the past? This is why they fail... unless of course they have the mightiest force of all, plot armor.
For the same reason any religion prefers teaching children: malleable minds.
Fun fator is that in Rebels, Sabine actually is a great warrior. Theyre doing theyre agenda backwards.
Fun fact is- no one cares
she's a teenager in a kids show. That's not the definition of a great warrior. That said its embarrassing she can't fight 20 something years later.
I write for fun (nothing is published). When I first began writing fictional stories, I discovered a lot of newbies (including myself) get hung up on depicting detail where it is not meaningful/prudent. You don't need to explain every detail of someone walking, turning, thinking, scratching their butt as they pass through a room. That drastically slows down the progression of the story and turns your demographic away. That said, I see it all over this series. The writers/producers have too much bloat that needs to be trimmed. Even after accomplishing that, they would still need to re-write their entire show because of how categorically terrible it is. I hate to sound pessimistic, but it is now -Start- She Wars.
That´s the point. They NEED the bloat. Ep3 was just 28 minutes long...28! And there still was padding in it. That is one of the criticisms of every single SW show by Disney. They are too short. Because they have no material.
Look at the Witcher season one. Every single episode was at least 57 minutes long. They could barely fit the material into the typical series format. At the same time we hand the first mandalorian season with a episode runtime of around 30min.
Honestly, I could enjoy this, despite the obvious New Hope rip off in the training scene. My issues are why don't the characters act like they did in Rebels? And why haven't they addressed the whole idea of HOW anyone knows that Thrawn is at the end of that jump ring mcguffin? How do they know where he is? This has been bothering me since this show started and I am still waiting for an answer. It's the literal driver of the entire show, so... how the heck do they know?
Remember when starfighter weapons actually did damage....I miss those days
11:10 At the finale of "Rebels" Thrawn got trapped on a bridge of a star destroyer that had all of its windows shattered by space whales who then dragged the destroyer into the hyperspace. The buttom line of proving that Thrawn survived this (by defying common sence as a concept all together) would be meeting him in person. Although it's Disney's "Star wars" where people get stabbed with lightsabers with no consequences, so what do I know? No one's ever really gone, are they.
Wouldn’t the shields of the chimera protect both Thrawn and Ezra from the journey though ? I am pretty sure that it has been established in Universe that as soon as a window chatters on an space vessel a shield is deployed.
@@GermaniaImmortalis Some of the tenticales of the space whales were coming through the windows if I remember correctly, so one would assume that would mean there were no shields around theses windows.
@@Mechataur yeah I remembered that too, never has been established what would happen if something is in the way of the shields but you know maybe the purrgils jumped directly into the atmosphere of peridea. I guess the Ahsoka series will enlighten us.
Somehow Thrawn has returned. 😣💨
These reviews need to be in every Disney writers room. “Don’t write like this” . Spot on and well done!
the space whales had more character than the actual characters
They learned overacting from the Shatner.... Captain Kirk.
