ing two episodes of the new season, have to ask.., is the rest more original? The first episode of season 2 owes royalties to Dune (and/or Tremors), the second episode was basically the original Alien on eight legs...c’mon, Favreau, try a little harder, will you?
KEEP WATCHING.

I totally agree...I actually teared up the moment I saw the X-Wing. I just knew at that moment what would follow & I was SO HAPPY.

Love it, one of my favourite parts of the series is jason sudekis in the season 1 finale
I think it’s fine to have little cameos like that, but I don’t think that’s really a highlight of the show/series. There are easily 50 moments that are actually great for the series and SW universe.

As an 80's kid, this SW franchise is a big part of my generation's culture. The sequel trash, ripped our hearts out, mocked and killed our heroes, perverted our stories, and basically took away a part of who we were...
Thank you Filoni and Favreau for caring, redeeming the og characters, listening to Lucas, and giving us true Star Wars fans what we wanted! All is well in the universe. LOL

My eyes were more than a little moist at the end. I 100% did not see that coming.

The bike troopers firing and missing that can from like 3 feet away and then missing IG from point blank? Sorry man for enjoying a funny moment in the series.
Good lord this is why Star Wars fans are the worst

You said “jason sudekis in the season 1 finale” was one of your favorite moments. In the entire series, having a celebrity cameo for all of 2 minutes, with the guy in a stormtrooper suit doing essentially comedic bits should be a foot note in the series, not a highlight.
And with your proclamation that “Star Wars fans are the worst”, you don’t appear to recognize yourself as a fan.
I have nothing against liking an actor and enjoying what they do (I think sudekis is great, enjoy his comedic presence, love the stuff he does with Bateman), but his presence is not especially poignant as it relates to the entire series.

Sort of like how Boba was a footnote in the original trilogy?
Maybe 40 years from now, that trooper gets his own spinoff series...

Alright man! You win! Great Job defending the honour of Star Wars by letting me know that a comedic moment can't be a favourite moment of anything! Enjoy the dub tonight!

I’m glad they did right by Luke. In the novels that came out in the 90’s which Disney declared no longer canon, Luke basically becomes the most powerful Jedi to ever live!! I’m glad they showed us some of that! Now bring on Sebastian Stan as Luke to bring us more!!

I could see them using season 3 with Luke having a computer generated face the whole time. People will be ok with that as long as he is in it.
WHAT IF: Luke teaches Mando the ways of the Force!! (Just a wild idea) lol

There are reveal moments and lore that I do admire about the series. In a whole the series isn’t much but an ode to fans. I can appreciate it but as a show there are a lot of holes. A lot of things done on the fly that with very belief explanations tie things together. I need more cohesion. This isn’t a great series. More of a it’s good enough series

This seems like a perfectly reasonable response actually.
Would you like to tell us about your other favorite Star Wars moments, like when the stormtrooper hit his head in the bulkhead in the opening scene of episode 4 or when qui-gon snatched jar jars tongue at the table???

I cant wait to watch the series. We currently dont have access to the service, but will get it just for this show. As someone who saw the originals in the theater as a kid, I've got an emotional attachment to the characters and movies. It seems like this show expounds on that.
I have to make a complaint regarding all the lists I keep seeing pertaining to ranking the movies/shows. The disrespect for Rogue One is ridiculous. I saw that in the theater, and at that time didnt like it much. The soundtrack threw me off, and I wasnt into the characters much. However, every time I've seen it since, I've liked it more than the previous viewing. It's now to the point that I hold it up with Empire.
The bottom for me is Solo. The more I watch it, the worse it gets. That and Attack of the Clones.
