I've just watched the first two episodes of Ahsoka. A good start.
Watching the suggested episodes of the different animated series certainly helped with the backstories of the main characters.
I’ve watched 1.5 episodes. Life got in the way of the second but I’ll catch it soon.
Seems to be somewhere between Mando/BOBF and Andor in terms of the balance between drama/action.
I don’t know much about any of the characters and I fear I won’t care too much either, depends how the series goes.
My boys were frustratingly unhelpful in filling in the character backstories, they told me to watch the cartoons but I don’t have time for that shit.
SW Rebels was a good show

Yep

Yep
Outstanding nerd theory and a tough one to argue which makes my tenuous defence of all things SW even tougher.
One thing I like in all shows/movies I watch is things to be consistent “within their own universe” so to speak.
Snoke got cut in half. Died. Sweet as.
Darth Maul cut in half. Survives but perhaps I can put that down to the cauterising nature of the sabre and how fucken tough his race is ( clutching at straws )
Count Dooku gave Obi Wan and Anakin some glancing blows but part of that I put down to him not being fully embraced in the dark side and giving them a chance ( also worth noting he had cut Anakins hand off )
Obi Wan slices up Anakin ( just limbs, no vital organs ) and leaves him burning and he very barely survives. I can dig that.
But then we get to THIS shit ? ( it was a cool scene I’ll give it that )
No WAY does she survive this.

I always found the DM thing absolutely ridiculous. Very surprised Lucas signed off on that. You get run through with a lightsaber that has to be the end. It's an absolute pisstake now and anyone who claims otherwise is delusional.

Again, a tough race and the hatred fuelled by the dark side would be enough to keep him going. I accept that one.
Wannabe chicks on speeder bikes with silly coloured hair ? Fuck no.

Perhaps we should get the opinion of an imaginary physician from the imaginary universe with the imaginary physical-laws to weigh in.
And yes... I understand that "oh, that doesn't seem like it makes sense"... but also I get that "this is a series of made up stories (originally) aimed at children".
And... ah, actually... Fuck it. If you care that much... go for it. I kinda feel a little envious that somebody can give the smidgeon of a shit about anything like this. -

Damn, looks like I missed a good shitfight? There's a swathe of deleted posts.
I'm going to wait for all of Ashoka to drop before watching. I am worried about reports it's hard to follow if Clone Wars and Rebels haven't been watched. But I'll give as go, although I'm really not a fan of the Filoni (we were never going to click, the lover of the prequels and the hater of the prequels
), but it will fill the Star Wars gap until Andor returns. -
