Ahsoka [Star Wars, Live-Action] (Page 2 of 3)

Yeah, picking this actress and setting up her character like this felt less like a logical choice and more like them wanting to win a young audience for this show...

I think its as simple as Disney Star Wars isn't the same thing as Lucas Star Wars. Its just not made for the same audience now.

The whole "the force is female" tag says it all. It was a planned shift to move the content to appeal to young girls.

After being a lifelong fan with one of my first ever memories, seeing the original movie in a cinema. The content is so obviously not made to appeal to me and is such poor quality now, I can't even be bothered to get upset by it.

That would be as pointless as me getting upset over something they did to the Barbie line. Star Wars just isn't a brand made for a broad, mostly male audience now.

I'm happy for those enjoying it though, there is plenty of other stuff for me to watch.

1x4 - Anyone else notice how sh!t Ahsoka is at using the force and engaging an enemy?  So much for girl power.  Anakins fault I guess.  This episode has you siding with the bad guys.

I've been quite negative, so on a more positive note, it's a perfectly immersive ILM production, 10/10, 4 stars, however, the story decisions are like a 5/10, so overall it's like a 7.5/10.

What would you rate Ahsoka so far?

I quite like the series just as I liked that other short oap Mondolian dude  series. except when I hear mention of "the force" makes me cringe

I typically won't 'rate' a show until the full season is up. To me, a season in TV terms is like a movie, typically the full story isn't told until the season is over.

So far... it's getting some eye rolling from me.

The second Disney Star Wars movie almost killed all joy I had in the series. Turning Poe and John Boyega into bumbling idiots while trying to portray the purple haired feminist that basically got the entire rebellion killed with her incompetence, then breaking all Star Wars lore by having hyperspace collisions being a thing instead of hyperspace being a literal state of existence outside of normal space was mind boggling to me.

And now. Ahsoka seems to be going the same route. It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that this purple haired feminist is who grows up to ruin the rebellion and the second movie.

Let me clear something up too. I'm pro-feminist and equality. What I'm against is casting men in an incompetent light to provide a contrasting backdrop to make a female character seem more intelligent. Feminists aren't a fan of the damsel in distress routine, which Leia broke the wall on all those years ago showing Han and Luke she had bigger balls than they did. And I get why they don't like the damsel in distress trope, frankly it's just poor story telling to degrade one character and use them as a backdrop to improve the perception of the 'hero'.

What I really don't like specifically about Ahsoka is:

However:

I like the show but for those rubbery head gear she wears that wobbles lol

All the girl-power pushing narratives aside, out of all the spin-offs from Star Wars released, this is most likely my favorite. It didn't start out that way but it got progressively better imo. Not having a ton of knowledge about Star Wars, this series also tied a few things together for me concerning the whole S.W. Universe.
Rosario plays this sort of laid back Jack OG almost like she gotta buzz, Jedi. Very smooth cool collected almost kickin back chillin sometimes  - - Oh and I just want to squeeze her head a couple times and see what type of texture and density they are.
  -- and all this new casting of females has gone crazy yes, but different topic anyway.   

damn eps 8, it is over.  final eps  really great  but just left so many loose ends

I feel shortchanged. angry

well the story was left for you to fill in in the final eps - the return of the bad general, the mercanary and his rock face, his sidekick and those bandits. a real cop out. A DIY show lol. Only makes sense if there is to be a season 2?
