"The purgill are dangerous. They WANDER INTO HYPERSPACE LANES, CRASH INTO SHIPS. I LOST MORE THAN ONE FRIEND THAT WAY." ^Taken directly from the wookiepedia entry (referencing season 2 episode 15 of Rebels) about the star whales. So apparently, them crashing into shit is absolutely cannon. And they were invented by Dave Filoni, apparently. They're also called purrgil, which you'd think the fucker who invented them would remember...

[@ghostapostle7225]

Dave Filoni is completly clueless of the world building he himself created. It's pretty clear he's not near as competent as people thought (including myself).

[@cmac3530]

I mean if they have pretty strict migratory patterns, which is pretty much implied by the fact they have a specific world in another galaxy they migrate to just to die, it's not unreasonable to assume that they aren't really that big of an issue except for a few one-off accidents. You would know which Hyperspace lanes to avoid at a certain time in their migratory pattern.

[@Galimeer5]

Lucasfilm has a giant room made of screens that they can use to film in virtually any environment. So why were [generic Clone Wars battle] and the Siege of Mandalore both orange-washed and obscured by smoke? I mean, obviously it was to save on production costs -- it's much cheaper to show the silhouette of an AT-TE through some smoke than to actually render a full battle that conveys scale, but why didn't they even bother changing the smoke for Mandalore? The city was washed with blue and black in the animated show, which made the reds and oranges even more visually striking. Would it really have been so difficult to switch on the blue lights instead? Make the two fake battles at least a little visually different?

[@epiczk0n141]

I think they genuinely just aren’t creative enough to make a Clone Wars battle look good in live action

[@jwappel3068]

Ahsoka deserves a better show than this, so do Hera and jacen. Both should be animated.

[@bedtimegames]

Han makes a very specific note about how you need to make hyperspace calculations on a computer before going into hyperspace otherwise you'll hit something, so a school of space whales blasting through a solar system seems fairly possible to me

[@NovaDark909]

Beskar armor really ruins all the fight scenes. I swear they could have made something to make it more balanced. For example, make it where if it takes too much damage from blasters or Jedi Lightsabers it begins to overheat. So while you are protected from their attacks, you'll run the risk in burning your body and getting serious injuries. Its also incredibly funny to me to see storm troopers who are seen to be comically incompetent in hitting their opponents. So happen to have really good accuracy when fighting opponents wearing Beskar armor. The most notorious example being Mando from the Mandalorian getting shot multiple times on his armor plating and not a single one landed on his exposed body. Another thing that always bothered me about Sabine is her suit. I haven't finished watching Rebels but I know that in one episode she got hit two times, one on the head and the other on her chest (if I remember correclty) after which she was knocked down. Yet when she gets shot shes unphased by the blaster fire. Did she get a new set of armor that has more Beskar metal in it or is that the same one that she used?

[@yourgodemperorofeverything1354]

Well, in theory Beskar should be by default also insanely rare and hard to manufacture, and having fulk.suit of armoe something that only to achieve through entire liferime step by step... buuut now it's just lating on the streets to pick up by some randoms, loln

[@superbrainz2357]

Funnily enough about the heating point apparently in one of the books/comics a beskar wearer was attacked by stormtroopers and while they couldn't penetrate the armor the constant fire basically cooked the target inside the suit.

[@RedAlertIt]

Look at the bright side: at least now the bad guys are allowed to hit the good guys with their laser fire.

[@nairrdlairrd]

They padded so much runtime with unnecessary scenes and exchanges

[@cellardweller5245]

"Once a Rebel, always a rebel". Now, I appreciate the wordplay, but no, it doesn't really work that way. You rebel, you establish something new and if you continue rebelling, you get purged. But I guess, since this is essentially a fairy tale, then it's allowed to pass.

What propels the whales? How do organic creatures reach such speeds? Sort of violates physics. Also, Star Wars takes place "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away..." not "a long time ago, in a couple galaxies, far far away..." it's just wrong.

[@nunouno001]

For the same reason space worms can live inside asteroids to devour the millennium falcon and dragons can breath fire without incinerating themselves to death in fantasy. To quote mystery science theater 3000, “If you're wondering how he eats and breathes and other science facts, Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show, I should really just relax.”

[@MrAweeze]

@nunouno001 those space worms aren't violating General Relativity. Lucas kept his pseudo science within realistic parameters and didn't violate his own rules, which allowed for suspension of disbelief.

Listen to what Ahsoka says to Rex immediately before Order 66 came down. Do you think she wants to have another entire show about her? Her story was told. The point of Ahsokas character was to grow up. To show the effect war has both on the jedi, and on children. She’s a shonen. Clone wars was you watching her great journey. When the shonen grows up, the show is supposed to end, or pivot to someone else. This show is them digging up a friend’s grave.
