I stand by my hatred of secret convenient maps but I’ll leave it at that.

I can see that. On the other hand Rebels had a lot of graphics worked I liked, on temple walls, caves so for me the graphic work was cool.
On the other hand I was like, &^%$ is this the Fifth Element?
....Wind blows...Fire burns....where is LeeLou and her multipass....Dunno if this is spoiler or not, so:
On the OTHER hand liked it better than I thought I would.
Dawson had settled more into the character and was more believable and showed more life than in Mando. Wasn't blown away but as a Rebels fan felt comfortable - not sure how to put that. Found the Sabine/Ahsoka tension tiresome as knowing Rebels, there's nothing for me that would lead me to feel there's any reason for it
, as Sabine had already gone through a maturing arc in Rebels. Also tired of "everyone's got powah" like Broom Boy and Finn.-Whatever.
But unlike Obi, felt like this was well-constructed, like folks put their back into it, script/actors/design. Solid enough, without grabbing me the way Mando S1 did. Liked the Dark Jedi, seeing Chopper, Lothal.

For me, credit where credit is due, since am not an Ahsoka fan. But IMO Dawson put her back into it.

Watched the first two episodes. I enjoyed them… thinking this will end up being better than Mando 3 and Boba Fett.
Are we all assuming the masked Sith/Inquisitor is Ezra? Or just me? Haven’t caught up on the thread yet.
How could it possibly be Ezra though? He was lost with Thrawn. If Ezra was recovered then Thrawn would be too.
Re: Ahsoka healing Sabine... this isn't new. She was brought back from the dead by The Sister and the essense The Sister has attached itself to her (that bird thing that is associated with Ahsoka) so this isn't exactly a deus ex machina out-of-nowhere thing.

Yeah I got the impression e.g. wouldn't be surprised if Shin switches sides. Also the Dark Jedi aren't "fully dark" e.g. they are a bit flexible in their thoughts, as opposed to fanatical. Or maybe it's just this pair. I like they are not frothing at the mouth Dark Siders, wallowing in evil.
Thats my thinking as well. I think it is porbably Barriss Offee [sic?]
Yeah even after Baylan talks about them acquiring ultimate power in the galaxy, she doesn't seem overly enthused about it. Lol
They seem to be using Morgan too, I can feel an aura of distrust between them.

What, you mean the Golden Snitch and the Horocrux? To be fair, dunno when Harry Potter came out but Filoni might have made all his little maps and doodads up first - not sure.
Luv this stuff. It's more stuff to blow money on
, like an Eye of Agamotto with light-ups and HASBRO swords with sound effects. I want the ball to shoot star patterns around a room, like a disco.

Man, that could be a really interesting take - a young Force Wielder who went to the Dark Side and then actually saw Vader slaughter - like Burnin Konn or something - and way, deep down, there's a tiny doubt.
Of course they blew it with Finn, but I'd be up for a decent writer having another crack at one of the Empire switching sides. Maybe she was taken as a kid and didn't have much choice.
And so far there's no-one screaming, chopping hands off, wearing a pancake griddle on their head, or doing parkour so in my book that's a huge plus.
I liked a lot of what I saw in the first two episodes. A couple of the characters were a little too stiff in their personalities, mostly Ahsoka herself and Hera. Hera became more like Hera once she paired up with Chopper, who is still the GOAT of the Rebels crew (also the one with the highest body count!).
Everybody's lekku and montrails still bob and fly around a little too much, but a small price to pay for live action.
Really loving Sabine's character and the padawan dark jedi.

Interesting that we may be traveling to another galaxy... really for the first time in Star Wars canon.

Fairly sure we got to see E-wing fighters, from my beloved "Dark Empire" comic book all the way back in 1991.
That was cool.
Everything else? Sucked.
I hated this. Oh man did I hate it. I hated it so much, it wasn't even a "hate watch."
Rather than being a fount of unnecessary negativity and hostility, I'm just gonna exit this thread and let people who liked it enjoy it without me whining about it.
Just let me know if there are any cool cameos like Luke or something that I'll need to check out. If not, I'll just go along with my existence pretending this wretched fan-fiction never happened.

There’s a surprise
I’m wondering if this is the scene from the epilogue of Rebels redone or if it’s just a homage and them starting their journey/search again.
I think that was meant to be the exact same scene. As otherwise it makes Sabine look pretty ineffective if she has to set off a second time on her big quest to find Ezra.
