Star Wars Rebels Coming Fall 2014

[shockwave]

I am going to see the show on ABC this coming Sunday. Heck it's SW I will love it.

Sorry don't mean to change the subject but looking forward to the CW-The Lost Missions on DVD soon.

I'm not quite caught up with all the episodes, but I'm enjoying this show so far. It is what it is. I didn't really have high expectations for it so I'm not disappointed in anything so far. I'm interested in seeing how the storyline progresses and it's significance in the overall canon. My wife isn't a huge SW fan but she loves the droids so it looks like I'll be getting her a Chopper figure.

I like the nostalgia of the show where they use a lot of the OT sound effects. That part of it is great, but the stories are bland and dry and I feel like it's just taking way too long to get anywhere. I mean we know Ezra has force sensitivity but have yet to see him train with that other guy. Where are the real bad guys? Why wait so long to bring in the Inquisitor?

I'm guessing you haven't seen the "Rise of the Old Masters" yet because it addresses some of your questions.

I watched the next episode, "Breaking Rank" and really enjoyed it...

Spoiler

Getting a look into the Jedi academy is interesting. I actually read the tie-in book about Zare Leonis before the episode. It's a quick little read, and was fun to get some background on the character. I thought it was a fun idea, to have Ezra go undercover. The episode really clipped along, and the action in space and on the ground at the end was really well done. One thing I did wonder... I'm assuming they didn't straight-up kill the AT-DP driver and fellow cadet in the AT-DP. Although, frankly, Star Wars seems to be happy to kill off Stormtroopers without much thought so maybe they did. But if they DIDN'T, then wouldn't Zare's cover be blown after the other cadet wakes up?

I was digging the Inquisitor until his lightsaber kept getting more and more elaborate. I guess you can't have just a good old fashioned sword fight anymore. When lightsabers start turning into spinning fan blades, I'm out.

I totally agree with you I don't understand why in all these prequel's they have such an elaborate weapons but then in the original trilogy it's basic Downgraded weapons. You would think that technology would've advanced and they would be even better. They might pull some crap where they went back to the original weapon of the Jedi once they're all wiped out nonsense

To be fair, the there were only 3 guys with lightsabers in the OT and the only other force user was Yoda, so I can look at it from that point of view. Especially since Obi-Wan & Yoda were very traditionalists.

His lightsaber is too gimmicky, though it's perhaps explained well by the fact he's not an actual Sith. So maybe he needs a little help in that department.

Felt bad for Luminara and how they are still using her. I like the show. Just have fun with it is my motto. Remember nothing will be like the first 3 films made . Nothing. Going into it with that mindset and I enjoy the whole franchise. I still will never bash Lucas just for the fact he gave us and the world the SW and IJ universe

Ok, still loving the show; in fact, the last two episodes were quite good, imo. Missed the Vader scene from the 10/26 rebroadcast, but did check it out via youtube - that 45 seconds of dialogue was an apology for the crap in ROTS. Early Vader helmet design was great.

Gonna definitely pick up the season set when it hits. Inqusitor seems like a very cool, somewhat creepy baddie too.

I got no complaints, other than gotta wait a week for the next episode!!!!!

Damn, gotta catch that. Just starting the episode where Chopper knocks off Ezra with the junk.

I think hes talking about the first episode re-broadcast. Apparently they added in Vader footage for the new network.

Yep, they added Vader with new JEJ voicework for the rebroadcast. I was bummed as I missed it too.

Sorry all - yes the inital episode was rebroadcast 10/26 with an extra Vader scene:

 

[Niltusk]

Finally caught up. Man, I'm loving this ****. Want some good collectibles aside from Lego for these guys, everything at the stores looks kinda junkish.
I heard GG is doing statues, but I'm not familiar with them to know if they're very good or not.

I wish this was the prequels right there, insert " Obiwan held me back "

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

G-Zuss!!!!!

That was ****ing awesome!!!

 

[MegaPrime33]

The bit was Vader was so epic and I wish they had it on the original airing of the ep. Still, I hope this isnt the last time Vader pops in.

I have all the maquettes so far on pre-order. GG's statues look good in customer pics.
