    Ahsoka is over. Great cinematography and design, good soundtrack, but ultimately not very engaging.

    I was very engaged by Darth Bangs.

    The first few episodes definitely dragged but things started to pick up for me during the back half of the season. Overall I enjoyed it, though I imagine it helps that I’m a CW/Rebels fan too.

    I conveniently forego all these programs.
    I’m more entertained by the commentary after it’s all done than by the actual shows :lol:

    Decided to try some newish mouse made content, Tales of the Empire. Within the first 30 seconds, people are using those stupid bow and arrow blasters. Pass.

    Yeah that was a pretty dumb choice. Especially in the darkness, just lets everyone on the battlefield know exactly where you are. All of those episodes were a real waste of time. Enough with the "connective tissue," it's not needed. After Andor season 2 premieres I'm letting my subscription lapse.

    Has anyone dipped their toes into The Acolyte? I haven't heard anything good.

    Also haven't heard anything good. I may still try it, but it's behind a list of other shows.

    I didn't even make it through the trailer. Some nondescript characters in drab robes fighting some other nondescript characters in drab robes. My least favorite thing about Star Wars is The Force. And the action figures look BO-RING.

    Wait... Have I finally gotten sick of Star Wars?

    I watched the first five episodes and I didn't see what all of the hollering was about. It's not great, it's not awful. It's just there.

    I also didn't see what the anti-woke people were complaining about, or the producers crowing about how it was the "gayest" Star Wars ever. Everything is the usual sexless and sterile Star Wars we've come to expect.

    If you like snacking on plain non-fat yogurt you will probably enjoy it. At $22 million a serving, though, wow.

    The writing is a dollar menu effort.

    So many questions, and most of them pertaining to Bazil. Why did he rip out the electronics when Sol was chasing Mae? What is Bazil's regular job, does he just wait around for the Jedi to ask him to sniff something out? What if Bazil is sniffing something out on another planet and he's booked? Why do they have hyperdrive and blasters but no tricorders? Why would they need to rely on Bazil? Why is Bazil?

    You have litteral activist writing episodes for Star Wars now that dont even know how to make a cohesive story plot. What did you expect? The stories to actually be good and make sense? The time line of events for certain legacy characters showing up in this is way off to. I refuse to give Disney any money for the crap there currently putting out. This whole series sounds like a weird fan fic. lol

    I love Bazil!

    I’ll watch 8 episodes of Brazil doing nothing.

    show pitch: diners drive ins and dives staring Bazil. Where Bazil sniffs yummies from every gastropub and cantina from Dagobah to Alderaan and beyond!
