Did you tell your coworker that he survived on "hate" as described in the episode

Duh...Boba Fett

Shame on me


I always tell my friends, no one ever dies in Star Wars. They either rebuild you or you become a sparkly, glowy, annoying Robot Chicken Jar Jar ghost.

Sometimes nerd rage builds up and peeps need to vent.



Also what TV series set is that lady in red blocking?
Here's a better view, I believe it could be Lego SW

there was a rumor that disney was in talks to realease a tv series with netflix



Hate, dislike, disapointment all lead to the dark side

But both has given us something new at the same point.
I would agree, I prefered Season 3 & 4,5

Yes they seem to be using the stormtroopers a comic relief, takes a bit of seriousnessaway from the show, like I said they seem to be pushing it away from the darkness and griityness of CW to more humor based show.

I still like it but wish it was darker. That being said it is a cartoon geared more towards the wee young folks.

TCW included so many extremely serious themes over time - clone slavery, terrorists, suicide bombers, heroic sacrifices, chemical warfare, discussions about idealism(like Pacifism) moral ambiguity galore.

I'd like for Rebels to go more this route. Give us Rebels that go too far, Imperials who truly believe they are doing what is right - then intermingle it all with the main plot and cast.
But all those serious themes and storylines came after the first 2 seasons that you liked. So does that mean you didn't like those?

I'm sure Rebels will go that route. Get the core groups going, set up some side characters, feel out which of them fans and regular viewers like, then give him/her more adventures.

I'm hoping to see an arc where a young Imperial Officer Ozzel falls under "believed what he was doing was right, but then this happened, then he changed his ways, and tries to sabotage the Empire from within".

Reason: I don't think it was incompetence on his part in Ep 5. I think he did his best to help the Rebels without being one, ie trying to dissuade the fleet going to Hoth, and dropping out of Hyperspace at a distance to raise the automatic alarms at Echo Base.

Guys...this would all be solved if you disregard the CGI CW Series and simply solely embrace the one that really matters:




Ya feel me?
Ignorance = bliss

I have to watch that again some time. The main thing I remember from it was Mace Windu and General Grievous being way more badass than they ever were in the movies.
