Ahsoka Review - Disney NUKES Star Wars in Epic Farce - Season 1 Episode 3 

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

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

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

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.

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.

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?

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?

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.

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.

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.

her name is Hera and yes this show is doing Kanan dirty

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.

harry potter was no good to start with tbf

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!

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 🚀

This is offensive to the sight impaired 🤔

That sounds like an insult to Mr. Magoo.

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

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.

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.

"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.

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."

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

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."

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

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.

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...

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.

There’s no Co2 in space!!! But the spaceships blow up and make fire in space in the entire time, every star wars movies!!

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.

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...

i'd argue star wars got terminally ill with the release of Force Awakens, and officially died in 2017 with The Last Jedi. this is just the funeral, and it's an open casket. that's all we are looking at, a corpse dolled up with makeup

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.

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.

Faster and built for combat has little to do with sensor range. Also, the Purrgil are huge and in flight which is probably easier to scan. Ashokas ship is small, was powered off to avoid detection, and hidden by the terrain. So to their scanners probably looked like a bunch of trees.

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.

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.

For the same reason any religion prefers teaching children: malleable minds.

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.

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. (in discussion with Kasdan and Marquand during production of ROTJ. source: Star Wars website, Jun 24, 2013 "So what the heck are midi-chlorians?" by JW Rinzler)

@@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.

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.

lol true

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.

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

Star Wars isn't, and hasn't ever really been 'science' fiction. It's space fantasy. There are so many things worth criticising with this show, that highlighting the nature of its space physics and laser tetchnology doesn't make sense is just...stupid. What you're pointing out goes back to the prequel trilogy, maybe even the original movies?

@@Blisterdude123 No, those lasers kept going until they were out of sight. Much like your comments should be/are.

@@nickdirienzo2849 There are fiery explosions which cannot happen without oxygen and sound in the vacuum of space. Star Wars doesn't have realistic space. It's a moronic thing to criticise.

@@Blisterdude123 You're going to tell me there's no oxygen on those ships, or the death star? I know you really want to deny that it's crappy writing and all around garbage, but this is getting sad...

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!

Council: a group of people Counsel: advice I don't like being a grammar nazi, but some things bother me more than others. English is a dumb language because of the way we spell things, but damn it, I care.

​@@armouredjester1622Really, being a Jedi Counselor sounds like a pretty bad job. You constantly have to hear about Knights and Padawans struggling with the temptation of the dark side.

@@armouredjester1622 However, the Jedi council acted as both, providing a source of advice for the old republic senate and as a group of people acting as the head of a group of people. How would one refer to this since they filled the functions of both spellings? A counsciel perhaps? (This is not meant to take a swing at your point and is born from curiosity)

And now EVERYONE IN THE GALAXY can be a Jedi. Think of the Hellfire that the future wars in the stars are gonna be now.

also something about M-count mattering, like tiny microscopic bacteria in the blood that is in all living things and form a galactic hive-mind. the more you have the easier it is to communicate with the blood parasites, and the more reality warping power you can use. there are people who can fight blind, people who can fight with a lazer sword very well, and people who can be crazy good at flying a space ship. none of that requires the force, but when you start fighting near the speed of light (windu V palpatine novelization), freezing lazer bolts in place (force awakens), or flying through space without a suit and mary-poppins'ing your way back to an airlock (TLJ) you better have alot of force.

I prefer "the Doctor" 😂

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."

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.

How do you write women in SW? I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability. - D+ SW “writers” probably

Maybe that's why her nickname is Snips LMAO

She's practicing for the 'real thing'.......coming soon in an episode near you. It'll be the Clamfest Disney Wars was made for !

If we get a scissoring scene between Sabine, Shin, and Ahsoka the show will at least be watchable 😂

Ahsoka more like I'm soaked bruh

@@sayLeotardbutsayitChinese She's a squirter alright. 👉🏻👌🏻🌊

I think the problem of disney writers is that they are trying to please the crowd on that, and there was of course a LOT of people complaining about a certain disney star wars character being unreasonably powerful, to the point of being a complete mary sue. I would wager that, in order to avoid the same criticism, they intentionally made her less capable at the beginning of the show. The problem these writers have is that they apparently think in total binaries, and dont really get concepts such as nuance, or reasonable expectation. Its not a problem if a character with a life-long background in fighting is good at fighting. Or if someone who used the force for decades is competent in using the force. It IS a problem when someone masters the force with zero instruction or training, because they are "just that gifted". Or when the only way they know to depict someone as strong is by them beating another character - which by all measures should vastly outclass them - in a fight. There is no problem having a character that is strong and capable, disney, but you need to give us the reason why they are, and you need to give them challenges that still cause them to struggle. Otherwise, we are just gonna be bored out of our minds, and you will continue to run star wars into the ground.

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

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?

He's better off being The Fugitive than remaining near Disney.

That's what I said to a couple friends who tried to defend it.

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.
