Star wars rebels reaction please !

[@coreozurn4950]

One thing Rosario Dawson nailed perfectly was Ahsoka's stance. Ahsoka always stood with a lot of attitude.

[@Pinkielover]

All the characters look spot on... Ahsoka looks even better now in my opinion..

[@SayGahTaah]

Rosario Dawson is what will Smiths cueball wishes her career was.

[@DarthDimadome]

I think Ahsoka LOOKS great, but Rosario is a little bit _too_ stoic. A little bit _too_ reserved. She was much warmer in Rebels. Doesn't ruin anything for me, just feels a bit off.

[@LaCheeserie]

@@DarthDimadome true, Ahsoka was not exactly spiderman jokey, but did have banter during fights and dogfights, etc. we’ll see if they bring that in later. This is Dave’s character, so hopefully they let him do what he wanted with her representation and Dawson carries it out

[@GedUK]

@@DarthDimadome I know what you mean, but there's been a lot of stuff happened between the end of rebels (not the epilogue) and this, so I think she's changed over time, which is fine. The core is still there and right.

[@papahamdrew9962]

I just love that Hera is played by Ewan Mcgregor’s (Obi Wan) wife. Ewan’s daughter is a drug dealer in the kenobi show (pink hair chapter 2) and Ewan’s uncle is wedge Antilles from “a new hope”, “return of the Jedi”, and “rise of Skywalker” Star Wars is family affair for the Mcgregors

[@chaost4544]

RIP Ray Stevenson. Dude was a hell of an actor.

[@christhompson9140]

I assume they will have to recast in season 2?

[@HolyknightVader999]

God bless his soul.

[@NDTE]

@@overland1178 no shot

[@mojoshivers]

I love that (Baylan) Skoll and (Shin) Hati are Norse Mythology figures, being two wolves that chase the Sun during the day and the Moon during the night, respectively. It’s very evocative, especially for ex-Jedi who are now bounty hunters.

[@JadedKid47]

Skoll is an Order 66 survivor who presumably took a young Force sensitive Hati under his wing as an apprentice. They are (just like Mando and Grogu, or Joel and Ellie) a Lone Wolf and Cub duo.

[@isaiahgonzales9989]

​@kmjkmjkmj You seem like you'd be fun at parties. Don't take it so seriously, dude.

[@Ugnutz]

good to see they confirmed all the theories about Morgan being a Dathomir Witch were right

[@lotusinn3]

Yeah, I was super happy with that.

[@claytonshankle4427]

I agree with Nikki, the music for Ahsoka is really done well, I even watched the end credits just to listen to the music.

[@SlxmRxcey]

💯

[@SlxmRxcey]

It’s the same person who did Rebels

[@jamesrein648]

This first episode was phenomenal the second one just as good and I cannot wait to see the rest of it shout out to Ray Stevenson a great actor who will be missed

[@chaost4544]

I'm glad people who didn't watch "Rebels" is going to experience some of the best characters in the Star Wars franchise including the best droid. I'll be content with this series if we see Chopper dropping bodies and committing war crimes.

[@tammykolu1242]

I liked most of the characters but not that sabine girl she is a little annoying

[@davidhamilton1055]

Oh r2d2 is in this lol honestly I am not the biggest fan of rebels

[@Deadman7782]

Chopper the murder bot XD

[@kevingreenfield4815]

Nah Sabine is the best@@tammykolu1242

[@DavidandLegs]

YES, love Chopper! Sorry R2 but Chopper is the best. 👍

[@NickTwohig]

The moment when Steven goes "I think it's a LothCat" is hands down the greatest "i clearly know this as a full blown star wars nerd but I'm going to say "I think" before I say it" in history.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Ha!!! I actually really bad with remembering creatures and ships. I try hard but sometimes I nail it. Ha!!!

[@kevinhansen8211]

Have to agree with Steven here, the whole puzzle in the temple thing, when I saw it, all I could think of was: what's next? Rolling giant metal spheres into slots to raise platforms, open doors? Nice touch by the writers there.

[@ExUSSailor]

The casting for Sabine was perfect! Natasha Liu Bordizzo was born to play her.

[@ExUSSailor]

I love the way she was introduced, as well. Even for people who haven't seen Rebels, you know everything you need to about her character in the first minute she's on-screen.

[@gilbertHoover-l7b]

RIP Ray Stevenson. Dude was a hell of an actor.. Casting for Ahsoka, Hera, and Sabine are all fantastic..

[@kvoltti]

I smiled so much seeing Clancy Brown portraying his Rebels character in live action

[@cimoslash]

They nailed ezra's voice so well i had to go back and check the voice actor lol

[@littleroot]

I love when Steven said that when he heard Ezras name for the first time he got very emotional because I felt the EXACT same.

[@rairai5114]

In regards to why Hera's actress looks so familiar is because she is Mary Elizabeth Winstead, she played Ramona in "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World". And just a cool note, she is married to Ewan McGregor!

[@eduardocruz4341]

Sabine was not stabbed in the stomach but to her side so the stab missed anything too vital unlike Qui-Gon who got stabbed in the middle thru the stomach and spine. Sabine got the equivalent of a side gunshot in a cop show so survivable...lol

[@Michael-hc2vs]

@@MaverickIcemanthat’s an assumption. How do you know the character that stabbed her doesn’t have an ulterior motive or good within her?

[@lotusinn3]

⁠@@MaverickIceman Exactly, so we can stop having these redundant conversations. The events must move the characters forward through risk and survival for development. It’s why Din was saved by Grogu in S1 of Mandalorian, and the list goes on. These are story devices, common in fictional storytelling.

[@aussiejed1]

@@MaverickIceman To put some logic into it: she's a Padawan, so not as well trained and aware that more enemy are coming from behind her - possibly a Jedi - so possibly a little stressed and rushed. The question: why did Baylan not come? Plot wise, of course, to have his padawan face Sabine. Logic wise: what was he doing instead?

[@grogu-the-mandalorian]

THANK YOU

[@CCFONESOL]

​@aussiejed1 my theory is that her master didn't order a kill because she knows how he feels about Jedi, and she only stabbed Sabine to keep Ahsoka from following. Dead or unharmed wouldn't accomplish that.

[@redviper6805]

RIP Ray Stevenson. You’re terrific in this show and funny in The Other Guys

[@PlanetLinuxChannel]

I’m convinced their orange lightsabers are using Kohlan crystals (as detailed in the Master & Apprentice novel with Obi-Wan and Qui Gon). Their properties make them much weaker against many materials and could explain how Sabine took it so well.

[@hamanu666]

If something is thrust into your body I don't think it matters what its made of, its still went through your body! Its like comparing a bronze spear and a steel spear, its still metal and its hurts the same assuming you survive it!

[@Heather61776]

Baylan Skoll is played by the actor that played Othere in Vikings

[@uli_612]

It’s always great watching your guys’ Star Wars reactions. As Anakin would say…This is where the fun begins!!!

[@a.a677]

I was so excited at the opening crawl too, also same I love how the Inquisitor's lightsaber colours are orange-red.

[@lordfoul6259]

I loved both episodes what I'm so excited for is that they're going to another galaxy which could be a tease for the Yuzhan Vong if you were scared of the sith you'll be terrified of these aliens

[@Prince_the_One]

I don't think the vong are scarier but they are new and interesting

[@HolyknightVader999]

The Vong make Palpatine look like a cute puppy.

[@colprom]

@@HolyknightVader999 Nah it's standard legends story over hype. The Vong are cool for sure though.

[@Cristinas_watching]

Nikki seeing a Loth Cat for the first time 😍 hehe those little darlings better hit the shelves soon. I kinda wondered if we’d see the return of the Notebook, to keep track of everyone 🤔

[@Okkotsu86275]

Of to a very very good start. Rest In Peace Ray Stevenson

[@toukie]

I went to the Montreal Comicon and I always get excited when I get to the Quebec Astromerch booth (SHOUT OUT!!!!) and this year I was like "Oh , hey, there's K-2S0, hey R2... Hi, R5... CHOPPER OMG THAT'S CHOPPER!" and I wheeled my wheelchair so fast towards the life-sized droid, my Godson had to run after me to keep up. The guy who was controlling the droid heard my scream of joy so he had turned it around and Chopper was wheeling towards me just as fast. I gave it a huge hug. The guy told me he was happy to see someone who knew who Chopper was before the Ahsoka show. When my Godson was finally able to drag me away, he said "Aren't you almost 50?" and I said "Your point being?" haha

[@LetsGetitBoah]

Rosario wanted the live-action role of Ahsoka years before she was cast as her. She was always a big fan of the character and you can really see the passion in her portrayal. Also, the Rebels women are freaking hot. I understand Captain Kirk now. The actress playing Hera is Mary-Elizabeth Winstead, married to Ewan McGregor BTW.

[@KingEdwardMMVIII]

Hera looking thicc! 😅

[@LetsGetitBoah]

@@KingEdwardMMVIII she’s got the good cake. I feel as if the person in charge of photography wanted to make sure we all knew it too.

[@KingEdwardMMVIII]

@@LetsGetitBoah Sabine too, sitting on that bike. I'm all for it ;)

6:22 Ray Stevenson - RIP 🙏 - was also in Punisher Warzone, The Three Musketeers and King Arthur (2004) with Clive Owen.

[@jbmiller3280]

Mary Elizabeth Winstead is playing Hera. [She was in Scott Pilgrim vs the World]

[@drumaticpageofmusic4148]

Whoever came up with the castings Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Hera and Sabine deserves a raise

[@funnerz]

It feels so long since we had some Star Wars content, let’s goo!

[@cliveklg7739]

Casting for Ahsoka, Hera, and Sabine are all fantastic.

[@Edd25164605]

I was told 'Rebels' was a must before watching this. I binged the Entire series in a fortnight. Ashoka definitely has promise!

[@stephenholmgren405]

The harp, strings and piano soundtracks in Ahsoka are breath-taking and an underrated aspect! Nikki, many of us are "basic" Star Wars enthusiasts, too. You said "I do" to the perfect buff nerd ❤ Watching you two evolve as a couple over the years on KZbin has just been nothing short of beautiful. 💘

[@moomoopuppy508]

I binged Rebels and I'm glad. There's a lot of "foundation" and subtle references in the dialogue.

[@Dimetropteryx]

The magical ball had, what, 125 possible combinations. The average suitcase has 1000. They should have been able to brute force it in a matter of minutes. Unless I missed something, which is entirely possible.

[@John_Locke_108]

Yeah, it seemed like you would have gotten it by accident without even trying. She just lined up the grooves.

[@chazo1367]

@@John_Locke_108it was probably more obvious to Sabine as an artist. Ahsoka might have been overthinking it and missed the little detail. But also maybe didn’t know it would move and align into anything because Sabine was looking at the holo image the whole night.

[@ODHDisney]

I’m still hoping Kanan shows up as a force ghost or something. Clancy brown wasn’t credited before the episode aired. And I know Freddie Prinze said he wasn’t going to do Kanan again but I’m still holding out hope that it’s like mark hammil in mando!

[@tiagoalves2056]

Or perhaps Anakin to Ashoka there is rumors of that instead of flashbacks we know that hayden christensen is in the casting.

[@ARJDReacts]

The little creature is a Boglin by the way. They were in comics and star wars jedi survivor

[@jaysonphillips6899]

The former Inquisitors name is Marrok and that's all we know except that he is a Merc like Baylen and his apprentice.

[@kevin982]

RIP Ray Stevenson. He past the same time as Tina Turner but not many knew about Ray.

[@rodgill9376]

I was very surprised we had an opening crawl here. Similar to the films. And the fact that it was red in color, nice touch but very rare. I'm also happy that we got composer Kevin Kiner back as well. He's done a wonderful job with The Clone Wars, Rebels and Tales of the Jedi. We are off to a good start so far.

[@LordGavial1138]

For those who don't know the actress that played Hera ( Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is real life Ewan McGregor's wife !

[@guruware8612]

really? that's soooo amazing! nearly got an anxiety-attack. who the heck is Ewan McGregor ? and who really cares by whom Mary gets a lesson in big-bang theory ?

[@RaymondXperia]

14:10 - Mary Elizabeth Winstead, aka The Huntress, Ramona Flowers, John McClane's daughter, Lucy in "Die Hard 4" (Ewan McGregor's wife).

[@JustCallMeKopi]

I have never watched any of the animated series' and I really enjoyed the show and I felt like I was introduced the characters well enough to know what was going on with them.

[@smiffy68]

Steven is absolutely in his element here, and Nikki is visibly tolerating his fanboy shit 😂

[@TK_Brainslug]

what a beginning of a show

[@chiburu_uchinanchu]

maybe ezra sent sabine a message because he knew she could eventually wield the force. it's like one jedi speaking to another.

[@JayLaliberte-xs3ky]

Ahsoka is the epitome of a True Jedi, when she says I am no Jedi, She means she does not agree with the Jedi ways or the Jedi Council. But is the Personification of a true Jedi to the Living Force. Qui Gon Jin!

[@lonestarr_sixer9554]

Sabine's speeder bike is based on original Star Wars concept art by Ralph McQuarrie

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Looked great

[@charleybrown4243]

There is a reason why the beginning crawl goes vertical instead of 'away', and it being red instead of yellow.

[@rockrollangel1972]

it had rogue 1/ hope vibes in the beginning. I loved every min of it, thanks Dave also Nikki where did you get your shirt?

[@madelinegarber7860]

It totally did.

[@Drummer4President]

“Sabine is holding her own” …… WHAT FIGHT ARE YOU WATCHING?!?!

[@garethpendlebury7996]

Loving the whole feel of this show. Far better cinematography than the rest so far and the pacing is great. The casting is awesome (RIP Ray Stevenson) David Tennant as Huyang! Let's just hope it maintains its impetus and doesn't trail off like others we could mention.

[@richardthecowardlylion5289]

I think that Shin Hati (blonde dark-sider) didn't want to kill Sabine and intentionally stabbed her low and to the side, far away from her heart. (unlike Maul who stabbed dead center in the chest and through the spine). She seemed kinda sus of Morgan, and I don't think she wanted to blindly kill Sabine on Morgan's whim. And it seemed like she was very much toying with Sabine in that fight.

[@LylaRose99]

I need to see an Ahsoka/Anakin flashback - give us the live action Snips content we deserve 😭

[@Angel_.0._]

The best part was the Spaceballs wannabes at the beginning 😂😂

[@leisharigg844]

Highly recommend Tales of the Jedi! Beautifully animated, they’re short, and they enhance what we know about the characters.

[@tmarends]

Loth Cats are available at the Disney parks in Galaxy's Edge -- for adoption at the Creature Stall.

I was thinking (ships still flying by like a Star Destroyer in Ep 4) ok so she sent a Prisoner to the New Republic, we know how that works out... they seldom arrive.

[@bidwell13]

I like the music during the open intro of the characters in lightsaber colors. It’s not the usual sound they use but music from the series. 14:18 Hera is played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead who is married to Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). 15:47 that droid is based off an old Kenner R2-D2 toy they made. They didn’t get all of his details in the toy. 16:32 that’s a Lothcat. It was also in Mandalorian when you first see Cara Dune. It was the creature that kinda snarled at Grogu.

Everything after Obi-Wan has come out in chronological order, so Mando Season 3 has happened and now Ashoka is starting.

[@tonicardanini1863]

I believe this takes place when Luke and Leia are still kids. Approximately around the time of the Obi-Wan series took place or a little after. So she hasn't met Grogu yet.

[@Akaeus]

Morgan Elsbeth is in this hence the Mandalorian is previous to this chronologically.

Great reaction, you 2. Steven, your enthusiasm for The SWU is always a joy to watch. Nikki your she-eagle eye for potential/future SW merch, is always a pleasure. Did you ever find out if Grogu's chainmail shirt was available for fans and collectors? May The Force Be With You... P.S. Yes, THE CRAWL was something special. Of course, it had to have its own distinctive look. However, I'll bet, when Filoni's theatrical release begins, it will have a near exact version of the classic Lucas crawl, most likely with the overhead moniker: The Mandalorian: Saga One...

It makes the most sense that Ahsoka takes place after Book of Boba Fett. That was when she left Luke with her own undefined stuff to do.
