  • fuck Disney - meet all the writers', actors', and animators' demands now!
  • Lothal looks nice but I wish more of it were actually real - go film in the Plains and make Loth-cat muppets please
  • the actors playing Rebels characters (Ahsoka, Hera, Sabine) get their mannerisms/faces/vibes pretty well!
  • the lightsaber fight scenes have kinda sucked IMO.
    • Unrealistic twirls that are too slow to look cool?
    • The thing where Shin is pressing down on leaning-back Sabine and Sabine doesn't have some cool Mando martial art thing to do?
    • Ahsoka does a Looney Tunes move of cutting holes in the floor under the HKs but then doesn't take the opportunity to just execute them as soon as they fall down?
    • IMO the fight scenes they should really be drawing from esp with the general samurai vibe Filoni wants are:
      • Ahsoka vs Maul in Clone Wars
      • Ahsoka vs Inquisitor in Tales of the Jedi
      • Grim vs Kouru in Visions s1e1
      • Luke vs Vader in TESB & ROTJ
  • continuing changes from the old canon wrt witches I guess? like they already seem to have gotten rid of the non-Nightsister Witches of Dathomir (at least based on how things are portrayed in Clone Wars + Jedi Fallen Order?) and now the Nightsisters are apparently a multi-planet (or even intergalactic?) millennia-old civilization instead of a clan of exiles from a centuries-old culture descended from an ex-Jedi-led women's revolutionary movement?
  • ah of course so Sabine has longer hair at the start entirely so they can do the cutting your hair with a knife trope lmao
  • I'm really glad Huyang is back! He should be in charge of the New Jedi Order rather than Luke IMO
  • it's interesting how there's two ex-Jedi who still wanted to take on Padawans - especially Sabine being one is really interesting bc it isn't depending on someone being "force-sensitive"
  • a thing that doesn't make sense at this point is like.. how did they know Thrawn wound up in a whole different galaxy? I guess Morgan sensed it?
  • that undercover imp would've been better off just quietly leaving Corellia quickly or even just staying undercover rather than trying to pull a gun and shoot a fucking Jedi lmao
  • lmao of course Chopper launches tracking devices by just yeeting them with his head arm
