@Nepia said in Star Wars VII ****contains spoilers****:
Finally got round to watch Ahsoka, didn't hate it, which is high praise given Filoni.
Pity that Ray Stevenson wont be in any more seasons going forward.I'm slightly interested in watching Rebels now to see how all the characters fit in.
Ahsoka’s Baylan Skoll Recast As ‘Game Of Thrones’ Star Rory McCann Replaces Ray Stevenson
A solid recasting of one of the best characters in the Disney era of Star Wars.
theyve recasted...really hope he nails this....dont reinvent the role (like when Mikkelsen replaced depp in harry potter)...spend your time learning how to replicate Ray Stevenson and finish his story

Do you want to start with the good stuff or the bad?
If you want to start with the good then watch Mando S1 and Andor first, then Mando S2. Then wait for Andor S2 or watch the others in any order.
Actually, don't skip Book of Boba Fett though, it's interesting to see them completely ruin a show by making it another show and have that also signal the beginning of the decline of that other previously good show.

BOBF was a strange mix of absolutely awesome and utter shit

that probably sums it up pretty well
I really liked ahsoka (chopper might be my fav character in starwars) but know other didn't and might rely too much on things set up in the animated series
the acolyte...yeah....has lots of problems....but also has some of (one of?) the best lightsaber fights in all of star wars IMO and a bad guy they completely wasted
and skeleton crew is Goonies in space.....

Ahsoka had its moments but not enough of them. I’m not exactly hanging out for the next season.
Don’t get me started on people surviving lightsaber wounds too…..
-
@MN5 as i say, i feel i saw more good bit beacuse they had been set up in rebels and clone wars, did someone survive a lightsabre wound in ahsoka? i also really liked the Baylan Skoll charater and want to know wtf he's up too
we forgot about obi wan.....

Yes. Ridiculous.
-
@MN5 oh, yeah, forgot about that, if im honest i suspend so much belief for these shows i let a lot of that flow over me, maul got cut in half...and went on to be one of the star wars best characters, at least the wound was to the side, i think the one in obi wan was right through their spine

I didn't mind Acolyte and Ahsoka, watchable but not outstanding. As long as they keep above the standard of the last movie/prequels then I'm easily pleased while noting I will happily grumpy old man about Filoni's influence on the franchise.

( I’ll throw in spoilers in case anyone hasn’t seen it )
ANOTHER fucken chick surviving being impaled by a lightsaber !!!!!I think the movie edit created by a fan is better than the actual show itself. Can't find it now but I assume someone posted it in this thread and that's how I found it.
@Kiwiwomble Yep, precedent was set a number of years ago with Maul, so no point complaining about surviving light saber wounds now.

the fan made movie edit of obiwan is much better too
im biting my tongue re the prequels....far from perfect but so much better than the sequeals
is it damning that there might actually be more "Bad" star wars than good?

Maul was a different species and used the dark side rage to keep him alive.
Makes Qui Gonns death all the more insulting.
-
@MN5 you just have to choose what to believe, if you're willing to accept dark side rage and being another species kept maul alive then you could just accept qui gon got stabbed right through the spine and dies instantly where as sabine got stabbed to the side, might have lost a kidney and survived long enough to get treatment
they should stick to people losing limbs though, would be enough to win a fight and not set people off

No need to bite your tongue, I'm not policing you (and your wrongness).
I absolutely hate the prequels (I consider the last sequel one of the prequels in tone/style/quality too), took me until Covid to do a rewatch of them. They were worse than I remembered. I would happily watch The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi if I was on the couch and they were on, if the prequels come on I'd rather sit in silence contemplating everything that is wrong with the world.
Hmm, for me it will be Brilliant, Good, Average, Bad.
Brilliant: SW, ESB, Rogue 1, Andor, Mando 1&2
Good: TFA, TLJ, ROTJ
Average: Mando 3, Boba, Obi Wan, Ahsoka, Acolyte
Bad: Prequels (including 9)I haven't seen Skeleton Crew or enough of the animated stuff to rate them.
