You can't call someone toxic or a fake fan for not agreeing with your opinion

[@blytheguy7510]

@@danielcordingley676 I didn't. It's toxic behavior to hate and rag on something that hasn't even been released or finished. When they hate on something they haven't even seen. I'm still reserving my judgement until I've seen the full show. I've seen people saying they hate it before it was released. And when you think like that before having seen it, that's prejudice. If you set out to hate something you haven't seen, chances are you won't like it because you already made up your mind. That's toxic. And it's toxic to hate on something because one considers it woke, whatever that means now. I've seen people hate it simply because it features a female character. That's toxic. I didn't like episodes 8 and 9 because I felt it was lazy writing and poor character development. But I'm not going to shit on someone's day because they liked it. When folks spend time and energy to hate on something, that's toxic. That's just bitching. There's a lot to be mad at in the real world, hating on fiction isn't the move. It's fine to disagree. Toxicity is a behavior.

[@DominationRotation]

I woudn't say it's based on nothing. The writing is predictable and lackluster. Fighting sequences seem cheap and uncaptivating. Folks definitely expect more from a 180 mill budget. If you insert idendity politics and propagate left wing ideals into a series that has nothing to do with it, people will obviously dislike it. Wokism is inherently narcisisstic. It's not an overly difficult concept to grasp. Shows like HOTD or anime like AOT have gay and diverse representation. Strong female characters are abundant. People love these shows and they are very well appreciated. No baseless and conservative backlash.. Now where is the difference to Disney Star Wars? It's really not that hard to figure out.

[@troubleondemand7703]

I'm loving this so far. A couple of minor quibbles, but nothing of note. Can't wait for episode 3!

[@RealBLAlley]

I do the same thing anticipating the choral and drum intro for The Bad Batch.

[@IsaacKuo]

I instantly love Sol so much just like everyone else, but yeah ... I agree we're probably being set up for a heartbreak. I can't help but suspect every little thing he says is going to come back at us in irony. Like when he said to Yord, "Don't let fear cloud your judgement." I feel like maybe that's what he let happen 16 years ago. And like when he was asking the younglings to see what they see of the force, and the little black girl said she saw fire? I feel like she was reacting to what _Sol_ was feeling. So if it wasn't Mae directly influencing Osha's visions/dreams, could it have been Sol? I don't think so, but ...

[@kivimik]

Did Osha deliberately miss Mae? Or is there something else? Does their connection to the Force prevent them from harming each other?

[@Deato9000]

Really loving our new characters so far! Sol, Jecki, Osha, Yord. They're all so fun and interesting 😁

Amandla Stenberg is an amazing actor. If I lived in the SW universe, I would want to be friends with Osha.

[@layniebear1237]

so my theory so far is that the twins are fueling each other through the force unaware. Mae supposedly died and the Jedi aren't idiots (Sol in particular) he was pretty certain she was dead. the crash that Osha survived looked lethal and she wasnt in her chair but she somehow got up fully healed. i wonder if both of them are healing the other through the force unaware or their connection keeps them going. "always one, but born as 2" makes me think their connection keeps them alive.

[@karisworldgaming4832]

After watching the first 2 episodes, I have a few thoughts. Obviously, there is a lot more to the incident in Brandock. The story they are spinning, is that Mae set the fire. Clearly, given that Mae is seeking revenge on the 4 Jedi who were there, they definitely have something to do with it. She, told master Torbin, to confess his crime, and he apologized, told her they thought they were doing the right thing, and willingly drank poison. I think, they either manipulated or forced Mae to set the fire, or they killed Mae and Osha’s family, for a reason, and used Mae as a scapegoat. I also, don’t buy that master Sol knew nothing. I actually think, that he is as guilty as the other 3 Jedi that were there during the incident. His quickness to believe Osha didn’t kill Indara and that Mae was still alive, would make sense considering he would know that Mae is the one who would have a motive to want them dead, while Osha wouldn’t have killed the master over being kicked out of the Jedi order, despite how hard that was for her. She said herself, she chose to leave. It would also explain Sol’s insistence in defending Osha, and bringing he back directly, and honestly overall fixation on her. He feels guilty, and protecting her, caring for her, was or is his way of atoning for what he and other jedi, did to her family. Osha’s family was definitely targeted, and they covered it up.

[@evanflynn4680]

It's not my favourite series, which is Andor, but it's got great fight scenes, the costumes and sets are perfect, but there's little things that could have been done better. Osha splitting off from the group and finding the body first? Why didn't the others take the most direct route? Why didn't the writers use the opportunity to build distrust between Osha and the Jedi? It would have built the tension up more. And why is there an overweight Jedi? The actor playing Sol is doing such a great job. I'd have written him disagreeing more with the green Jedi master in the first episode. Especially when she said they need to make an example of Osha. He should have immediately suspected that there was more going on and advocated for a more thorough investigation. He'd be denied, but his argument that even if Osha had stayed a Jedi she wouldn't have been able to defeat a master of Carrie Anne Moss' character's skill, let alone after six years with no master teaching her. The green Jedi would have accused him of attachment, and Sol would reply that if Osha really had done it, they need to find her master, because she had to learn how to kill Jedi from someone. It would have established even more that the Jedi Council is out of touch in this time, and that Sol is a really wise person who sees the situation as clearly as he could with the information available to him.

Good reaction

[@NialasDubh]

Why don't you go to bed and react to the episodes in the morning, you silly sod😆 Have to say I'm not 100% in, yet - there is some really clunky writing and dialogue, which is a shame. But the premise of the plot is a good one, and I love Sol (he's exactly what I want a Jedi to be) and Jecki. Yord is a great character, of a kind we haven't really seen before. You just know he stands in front of his bedroom mirror looking at himself in his robes, and muttering "yeah...I am a JEDI". He seems to have the makings, though - that following of Osha when she left the group was fine work - and he could mature into a fine Knight, yet.

My own theory about what happen is for some reason mae's emerging force powers got out of hand, thus being the one who burned her village, and the jedi had to put her down, going back to mae's first kill about jedi don't fight unarmed people and mae replying, tyes they do, and somehow mae survived, more than likely saved by the sith.
