There were 1-2 mistakes where I left out a clip in the edit relating to my remarks -- sorry my legends. I was trying to get this one out for you guys ASAP! Also -- I said it's a 2/10 and 14% is generous. Yes, this was a slip-up / mistake. I left it in the edit because it's funny when I'm dumb sometimes and I figured it would get some free comments. Lmao. Not that deep. Anyways, enjoy the video, leave a like, & bang that subscribe button if you love me 3000 :) - Mr. Stark

So to be clear, while I dropped out after Ep 2, I will point out what the training sequence is "supposed" to be. As a traditional kung fu practitioner, does modern combat sports and studied old school Japanese weapons-based martial arts as well, and a Star Wars fan of course, this is supposed to be about showing part of the training drills of Jedi, going off of Lucas borrowing from Samurai film and to some extent kung fu film stuff, where we seem the solo training drills to learn and refine basic mechanics, footwork ect in things like Drunken Master, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, The Last Samurai ect. In Chinese and Japanese martial arts, we have many short and long solo weapons routines that people train (though I would say they look more entertaining than this), but also paired routines. In modern HEMA (European weapons arts), that often have similar things like this as well, so someone can practice movements on their own and later apply to prearranged partner drills, and sparring. It looks like that is what they were doing, like in Ashoka and some others films. I suppose I sound like I am defending the quality of the sequence, but I more pointing out what the writers and choreographers thought this was supposed to be, as opposed to what it was supposed to be. Too often I feel like they try to make-up just some movements as opposed to borrowing from actual traditional sword/fencing routines that look more exciting. More importantly your reaction to this is what indicates the problem with the sequence. I was in between on what I consider the quality of the scene with Sabine, but she should not great, being more amateur and High Republic era Jedi solo routines should look pretty awesome and the sequence should just capture you so you are not even thinking about why is there. It is kinda weird that I feel like Sabine's drills make more sense then this one did. If the audience is having to think about the why it is there, the choreography of the sequence is obviously not entertaining. I have often been bothered by a lot of Hollywood created solo weapons routines, as they are often done so neither a actual martial artist nor audience member finds they interesting or purposeful.

Godzilla Minus One was 125 minutes long and cost $15 million dollars. This episode was 23 minutes and $23 millions dollars. Just wanted to point that out in case anyone was wondering if this was also a colossal waste of money as well as a colossal waste of time. This entire series is malfeasance on a scale heretofore unseen.

The worst trend we are seeing again and again is people who in no way DESERVE their position, keep getting these positions. They are hired in no way based off of talent or skill.. There's no way a show that is this expensive, with this famous of a subject, should have this bad of writing & have this bad of world design, world building. I mean these set designs, aesthetics, overall look & feel of the world & it's visuals as a whole. It's all so surface level. It looks cheap & tacky. On top of everything people have already said, I also think the camera work in this is awful. This show genuinely feels like adults role playing as kids are getting to shot this.. It really feels like it's deliberately going against everything that is Star Wars. It feels deliberately disrespectful to the lore and has no respect to the source material. Are they deathly allergic to having male characters? Are they allergic to quality storytelling, world building, character development.. This is awful! It really seems like whoever is making these doesn't realize Star Wars used to be a really well made world full of diversity. It didn't matter what kind of character, creature, species you were, they found great ways to convey artistic depictions of the Human condition. Creative ways that connect us all on a deeper level. Things used to take pride in finding creative ways to convey things. To give the audience feelings without overly explaining it. I really miss that. If you go back and watch "X-Men the animated series" It is so well crafted. The story of mutants was so universally relatable. Media back then found ways to abstractly teach me life lessons, touched on difficult situations, found intelligent ways to tell stories. Even when I watched it all grown up it really felt like the story is so well crafted and executed that anyone is able to relate to it in someway or another. It's stuff like that that we are so deeply lacking nowadays. So much so that literal kid's cartoons from the 90's told deeper and more mature stories than most media nowadays.

They don’t care about any of the nuts and bolts a craft of screenwriting or writing for TV. It’s as if their white or other privilege means they don’t have to follow the traditions or necessary beats of good or even just competent storytelling. It’s outrageous. It’s as if they’re too good to ever read let alone follow any advice from a screenwriting guide book.

You have put far to much effort into your analysis... It's called failing upwards... and it is the only reward people of the participation trophy era understand! They are not 'adults role playing as children'... they are adult-children role playing as adult-adults... you can see this by watching children plan and present there own original 'home-made plays'. You watch as an adult, you acknowledge all the flaws, and yet you still clap for them making the effort. When adults do it, you do not! And, as children they react as you would expect, by throwing a tantrum and demanding the respect they got when they were physically young enough to be rewarded for nothing more then effort.... "But 🥺, BuUtT 😢, I was promised a trophy... even if I lose 😭!!!!" 😤😠🤬

2:00 I have no complaints about the training, to be honest. Practicing katas is training, and the trainees moves are impressively crisp. Its clearly form 3 without outright shoving it in the audience's face, and its clear that they are well trained. One of the few good bits of the episode.

​@@Stark-CinemaFair. I like the practice choreography, I think it speaks to how skilled the Jedi are and it characterizes them better than a sparring match would. But the dialogue is bad, yes. It doesn't match the padawans' actions at all; it's a lesson they are already proving they don't need to learn. And the later inclusion of the actual line "No one could have survived that" is worth so many negative points it made me genuinely angry.

I don't subscribe to Rotten Tomatoes, but I would just to leave a review on this unwatchable series. I thought they had already done enough damage with Boba Fett or Obi Wan, but here we went above and beyond. It's like watching an episode of Space Balls. I can't save anything from this series. It's embarrassing how they had such a large budget and managed to pull off something like this. If I signed up for Rotten Tomatoes someone would say I did it on purpose because I'm a toxic fan.

It's just not the same as to see him interact with Master Sol & others at present day 😐 Le Sigh, but i love the episode enough to give it 7.5/10 on couple websites & S01 review once S01 is over. Time when it should be done, not after one or few episodes. ✅ Second complaint is that it's 7-10mins too short. Hopefully one or more out of remaining episodes are at least 37mins when end credits excluded 🤞 Enjoy S01 when streaming at D+ & good times in Galaxy far Away 🙂

Ive seen a girl get stabbed threw the liver with a lightsaber and be back on her feet after a power nap so dont tell me shes dead,the second guy commited suicide so that doesnt count he could have easily just stab himself woth his lightsaber but oh right those dont kill people so maybe poison is the only way to kill a jedi?

So they look at Mae, and they determine she MUST have a master, she MUST have been trained, and the way they determine this because there is NO evidence of Smilo Ren outside of us the "audience" seeing "him", is that Mae is SKILLED in using the force and fighting. So...... Basically they're confirming that Rey should NOT have been able to just do all the crazy shit she did with no training. You can see the entire house of cards, realizing it has been built on a landslide.
