yeah I was about to say all this episode was missing was a Bothan or 2.

the actress is 20 which is like TV for 15.

could be growing up in another galaxy.

They are hiding his pointy ears under that haircut, which also looks like it’s poking out a bit in the back? The Lawquane kids from Clone Wars were half twi’lek, half human, and didn’t have hair afaict, so might be different traits dominant.

Ezra + Kanan combined vs an Inquisitor is usually shown to be tough for them to handle. When Vader comes for them he was seconds away from murdering them both without breaking a sweat when a pair of mechs get dropped on his head as a temporary distraction. Ahsoka easily solos a pair of Inquisitors and slices a hole in…

Marrok is almost certainly Eighth Brother. Anyone telling you differently is just selling tinfoil for YouTube subscribers.

JJ loves having characters watching super weapons in one star system destroy planets in another star system while sitting on a planet in a 3rd, unrelated Star System.

and in all the older movies (NOT! the JJ bullshit) and novels even hyperspace travel is implied to still take a fair amount of time between distant systems.

Ahsoka spent years in on the run / in hiding, decided to come out of hiding and help the cause only to discover her best friend turned into a genocidal maniac within a few hours of the last time they saw each other.

I enjoyed some KJA Star Wars stuff as a teen - Jedi Academy trilogy has some dumb stuff (looking at your “Sun Crusher”), but it leads to Darksaber (not related to the object of same name in current canon) which has both some low-key hilarious moments (Durga’s super weapon blowing itself up because he used cheap labor)…

The Star Wars problem goes all the way back to the root though.
Obi-Wan: *loading Chekov’s gun* “only imperial stormtroopers are so precise”
Han & Luke: *cocking Chekov’s gun* “let’s run around the Death Star and not get shot even once!”
Leia: *finger to the trigger* “That was too easy, they let us get away”
Vader:…

I feel like this is a modern attention span complaint. TLJ isn’t any slower paced than any of George’s Star Wars movies.

Resistance has some great moments + great art style for sure. It’s a lot less painful to watch the filler if you just binge through it instead of having to wait for a week between eps.

The overarching TLJ story arcs for Poe and Rey and Luke were FANTASTIC, Rose / Finn dynamic was awesome, and Luke v Kylo was the best on-screen lightsaber duel of any of the movies.

100% - I hate the JJ movies, but I would kill to see a movie where George did the basic script outline, and then JJ got the actors to actually perform.

she won’t need to deflect it if she’s wearing beskar.

hard to track down 50 out of 10,000 when they are all deliberately hiding.

Liberation of Lothal was 1 BBY, Battle of Endor is 4 ABY, Ahsoka S1 is roughly 9 ABY, so there’s a decade of missing events, and at least a half decade of peace, although I kind get the sense that the Empire noped the f*** out of Lothal after the space whale debacle, so it might be effectively longer than that.
