Not sure which thread this best belongs. But Dave Filoni has heavily implied Ahsoka is Alive in ep. IX.

That actually makes so much sense in my mind, that I want that to happen.

The Vanity Fair interview with Filoni and Dawson is great. Definitely check it out.


It's interesting that Rosario and Hayden went to acting school together.

Obviously we can tell which one was paying more attention in class.

George's dialogue and directing made academy award winners Samuel L Jackson and Natalie Portman act like wooden planks with faces drawn on them using sharpies. I wouldn't read too much into poor Hayden's acting abilities given the sample size.

I found Hayden's acting to be quite engaging. Since watching the prequels, I've hated sand ever since.

If you can suffer through the first two seasons it gets really good. The last couple episodes of the second season onward are well worth the watch.

It’s an absolute grind to get there though.

I'd agree about the first season, up until about the last three episodes.


I thought the second season was really strong.



You had the twilight of the apprentice arc which was awesome. The two episodes introducing Rex Some outstanding single episodes like the Honorable Ones, Princess on Lothal, Wings of the Master and Protectors of Concord Dawn. I mean the next two seasons knocked it out of the park, but season two was really good and really picked up steam.

The Rebels animation style really turned me off. Although, I guess it's not that different than Green Lantern: The Animated Series, which I quite enjoyed.

It took me a couple of seasons to get used to it after getting used to the Clone wars style, which I disliked in its first year.

I watched Rebels before Clone Wars, and enjoyed it from beginning to end. Once Thrawn comes in, it's great.

Clone Wars is better, but I'm glad I watched it after Rebels. The animation is better, even though it's older. But even for Clone Wars, it starts off a bit slow then gets better as it goes on.

Heck, even Resistance gets better as it goes on. But overall I'd say it's a skip. You won't miss much by not watching this series.

I never got into Resistance at all, I tried but it just didn't have the right hero's or villains in it. Rebels was strong because of the Villains. Tarkin, Vader, Thrawn a couple of appearance by Palpatine.


Clone Wars had great villains, Maul, Sidious, Dooku, Ventress (Though she was more tragic)

The initial seasons of the Clone Wars had pretty poor animation. It improved as it went on.

I would suggest to anyone watching this show, if they don't want to get into the animated stuff altogether, at least watch the last four episodes of season 7 of the The Clone Wars (episodes 8-12). They span from just before the start of Episode III to just after, and the quality of everything in those four shows - from writing, to animation, to music, to the performances of the voice actors, is an order of magnitude above what most of the animated stuff achieves.

TCW as a series has a lot of highs and lows. I can't talk much about Rebels I guess because I quit on it pretty quickly and just watched some of the highlights, e.g.

Agreed about Mando putting on that armor, what a cool tribute that would be, but maybe I missed something...?

Nope we saw Boba Fett at the end of the one episode. Even though it could just be a really old Clone, he'd be something like 80 by the time of the events of the Mandalorian.


I would love to see the Mando stuck wearing that armor and Bobba coming to collect.
