Well, they said "more forward momentum." In this context, any amount would count. 

It’s a miniseries, but if you don’t know all the answers by the end of the first episode, the whole show sucks.

Uuughuhghhhh. I mean we all knew where this was going, it’s Rebels 2 after all and Filoni was in charge so there was no way it wasn’t going to happen, but ughhh the World Between Worlds. The worst thing ever added to this canon. If it had stayed in the cartoons where I could ignore it just like Mortis then that’d be…

Yeah the factory was full of Empire loyalists but there are still remnants of the Empire at large in the galaxy. The Senate acknowledge this when talking to Hera. But there is still zero proof in any of this that it all leads back to Thrawn. 

The shipyard is proof that there were Imperial loyalists working there. It’s not proof that Grand Admiral is about to unite the remnants to come sweeping down on the New Republic. You’re using meta knowledge that the characters don’t have.

Luke voice: I care.

What's weird is I've never heard of adhesive tape being called "sellotape", I don't even know what that is. I think everyone I know calls it Scotch tape.

I don’t think that’s what’s happening here. Hera is coming to these people saying, “Hey, we need to spend a lot of resources on something that I have no definitive proof of, and that I may have mixed motives about,” while the rest of these people are trying to rebuild and feed the Republic. The strongest feeling I got…

This show is falling into the classic trope trap of creating seemingly interesting villains who aren’t even characters, just costumes. Shin has said maybe 20 words over 3 episodes and Baylan even fewer. Morgan scowls and Marrok has a Kylo Ren vocoder, which we know because he/she has had exactly two lines of dialogue.

Aha, it was good, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

Tbh, I see folk calling her “Jedi’ as just colloquial shorthand for “force user” as “Jedi” is all that most people know.

He’s a vat grown clone of Ezra, that has been altered with Sith alchemy to be faster, stronger, more force-sensitive, and tougher than his unwilling genetic progenitor.  In fact in all ways, he’s Better Than Ezra.

did the same thing with the prequels. with the same character!

It seems as if Ahsoka has something else in mind for Sabine. Not a by-the-book Jedi. More a Force-using ally. Something Star Wars fans often refer to as a “Gray Jedi.” Not quite a full light-side Jedi and not quite a full dark-side Sith.

The Mandalorian cloning stories are linked to Snoke, if you look hard enough. Some of the people Gideon was talking to during the Evil Council of Evil scenes are linked to the First Order. And weren’t some of the bodies in the cloning facility sort of Snokish?

Whoever it ends up being, I’m sure it’ll be a cool moment.

I think it goes: Oppenheimer, Godzilla 1954, Godzilla 1985, Barbie.

Counter-point: I’ve seen the movies (loved half of them) loved Andor, liked Obi-Wan, read the Thrawn trilogy, and never watched more than a handful of the first season of Clone Wars and none of Rebels. I literally had no problem understanding what was going on. It also sounds like you’re simultaneously dragging the…

THOUGHTS AFTER WATCHING

Sabine Ren is punk rock. Do you know how I know? Because they showed her riding a motorcycle with punk rock music playing and her being sassy. That’s how I know. And that’s how you introduce a character to an audience with rocks in their heads.
