Dare I ask...what is Chick Star Wars?"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

FIFY.Originally posted by All-American View PostChickDisney Star Wars is … pretty bad.
Apart from the sequels, Kenobi is the worst show of the Disney era. It isn't specific to gender.
I don't have a problem with a female protagonist in Star Wars. Ahsoka was a great character in the Clone Wars and Rebels. It's the formulaic, predictable, and uncreative female characters and vapid and weak male characters. It's boring at this point.
That being said I'm waiting to see the season of Ahsoka through before I render judgment. I enjoyed Rebels but we'll see how this goes without the grounding of Kanan or Ezra. I'm a bit amused they are making Sabine a padawan because of course she is.

Well, I mean, if you enjoy strong, independent women strongly and independently standing around with strong, independent looks on their faces saying strong, independent things, you’ve got that in spades. They just don’t do anything.Originally posted by USUC View Post

And if you have to have watched another series to make this one worth it, that is your best sign that maybe just maybe your time is better spent elsewhere.
Disney has to stop making shows that depend on its own lore. Kenobi was in my opinion good, not great, but also had much more lore to depend on. You can keep mining episode 4 for Rogue One chills. The little cartoon they did on the side doesn’t give nearly the support the show needs.
Two episodes in, I doubt I’ll spend any more time with it.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

You are right, Ahsoka is probably not going to be accessible to the casual viewer. They haven't even given a quick summation of what happened to Ezra, he's just missing.Originally posted by All-American View Post

Kenobi was bad. I liked Book of Boba Fett more than Kenobi, and I thought BOBF was bad.

I've been watching Rebels to try to get caught up before watching Asoka. I had heard that Clone Wars was way better than Rebels, but I haven't thought that. Clone Wars was alright, but some of it I didn't really like. Rebels hasn't been too bad so far, I'm through about half of season 2.
Some of the comments here have made me question if it is worth working through Rebels or not. We'll see.

Rebels is 100% some of the best SW content to ever come out, you'll find. It's a game changer. Some people just like nostalgia more than actual Star Wars, I've noticed...Originally posted by beefytee View PostI've been watching Rebels to try to get caught up before watching Asoka.

I don't think anybody never mentioned Tales of the Jedi mini series on Disney+, that came out last fall, which is a set of 6 vignettes, animated in a brand new style, about Ahsoka and Count Dooku. Very cool and expositive little shorts that add a lot of info to unanswered questions about Dooku's mentorship of Qui-Gonn, his subsequent fall, the mysterious disappearance of Yaddle, and Ahsoka's remarkable survival of order 66. That is, if you are a Star Wars fan."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

Then you'll probably like Rebels. Good and compelling story, and you can't beat the realism of special effects in the context of an animated series.Originally posted by Pelado View Post

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...
Andor series is among the best Star Wars productions ever. I will fight anyone who disagrees.
Everything else is trash right now. I think the Mandalorian S3E6 was the worst thing Star Wars has ever produced. Horrible writing, acting, plot, yada yada yada. Lizzo should be sued for her performance in that too."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Of course Andor is great. Everybody knows that.
Opinions are definitely varied among casual viewers, but the critics don't think everything else is trash rn. That's pretty hyperbolic. Ahsoka is just the latest in an unbroken tradition of critically acclaimed Star Wars tv series.
