Let's get the conversation going! What did you think about this?! Did you feel like I did? Oh man these comments should be somethin!!!! GO!!!

[@mikerotonda6264]

I like that shirt your wearing.... I like that your getting into ufos.. That was where Kenneth Arnold first saw those crafts.. And there was multiple crafts in formation and they weren't disk shaped, they were almost Delta shaped

the writing is so damn bad it's laughable. This guy's motivation for stealing the kids is that he wants to go home real bad. He felt so bad about defending himself from a possessed wookiee that he took a 10 year vow of silence and unalived himself? Someone really wrote that.

[@sad7287]

Why wouldn’t Sol just use the force to lift the kids up to save them? Instead he chooses to try to hold up 2 separate billion pound bridges

Nobody can convince me that this show WASN'T written by ChatGPT.

[@petewisdom1984]

False. It would have been more cohesive.

[@bigt2079]

ChatGPT would paint by the numbers better.

[@MostViewedTop40]

I have actually wondered whether they used a ChatGPT (LLM) of some sort because when they create long pieces of text they struggle to keep the story coherent. They can only process a certain number of words and then lose track of what is going on. Something so odd happened when this was written. I would love to know the behind the scenes story. Probably something like, they wrote it, then Disney interfered, and then they rushed a new story and started filming before it was ready. Something dumb like that.

[@Lambzy]

ChatGPT would’ve been a major improvement then this garbage writing.

I just realized that "Torbin" is the actor that portrayed "Tommen" in Game of Thrones. 😮 When the witch said "Kneel". I laughed. "Bend the knee". But why did he kill himself?? He didn't do anything wrong. Just bored of logging moss and insects. 😅

[@shockt9221]

​@klass_1221 The funny thing is after all this Torbin was like "I'm not going to say anything...ever." 😂

I remember hearing this song on KZbin weeks ago and thinking to myself: “interesting that they made this song because there’s no way they’ll use it in the show” There really are no limits to how low this show can sink.

[@Alsayer-jd2os]

Don’t you love as well that the older actors aren’t anywhere near the advertising and all the young cast members are?? Seems like they know a pile of crap when they see one

[@ssj4brandon1]

I laugh so hard the way the witches die. It was so bad. Also why not just lift the girls instead of the bridge?

The power of many… defeated by one Jedi…who dies to a distraction

[@jamesdunn6030]

I think one of the most annoying things is that this is one of the longest episodes that we’ve had, but its 85% stuff we already know. And don’t tell me Sol can hold up a bridge, but can’t keep two small girls up in the air? He has to run to catch Osha?!

[@ahmorgan]

That made zero sense. We just saw earlier you can use the force to grab people, why wouldn't he just use the force to grab the twins. Stupid writing.

[@Bayard1503]

Well, he probably just couldn't switch that fast between the bridge and the girls, he made a mistake not grabbing them from the start. So yeah, I could find an explanation but when you write a show you never want the viewer being puzzled... it's bad writing.

[@menacesilly]

The padawan's sole motive was to go back home to Corusant.......wow.

[@Mertaranta]

The padawan was really immature.

[@arthurwigglesby8590]

He's no Bear Grylls.

[@marcakins3373]

That really seemed off to me too, I don’t understand…so basically he is an immature Padawan that wasn’t ready for field work? And that is why he went into a meditation state once he became a JEDI master to then unalive himself?

[@Br0wnCh3]

Reshoots probably. Some of these shows are being re-written as they film it and people are constantly offering up ideas. When done poorly, you get the acolyte. Its SO badly put togethor.

[@andedom]

@@marcakins3373seemed like he was immature. Also bored and wanted to go home, probably not a good fit to be a Jedi (like Yorn). Also he just got mind screwed by a witch..: u could see how that experience would make him want to get the freak off that planet.

[@jayman36553]

So I still haven't seen anything that was so bad that would cause Torbin to be so grief stricken and guilt ridden that the only way to atone was to kill himself.

[@RailroadTy]

He personally didn't really do anything. Seemed like everything was just a big accident sprung from good intentions.

[@fringehouse]

Sol would be the one to feel that way because he literally killed the mother for no reason, and yet Torbin wants to kill himself even though he didn’t really do much other than be a selfish idiot?

[@rjmacready6693]

Dude got mind raped

[@tylerpifer5966]

@@RailroadTyIf he keeps his cool and listens to his master, none of the bad stuff happens. It’s 100% his fault.

[@RailroadTy]

@@tylerpifer5966 All he did was drive to the facility. Sol got there, took charge, and lead the inside mission. I can understand why Torbin might feel guilt or shame, but this is on Sol. Or even Indara since she seems to be the ranking officer here. My man clearly had some feelings that he was struggling with and she didn't do anything to help address the root of Torbin's dissatisfaction. If there are three adults and one child operating together and the child does something stupid, ultimate blame and responsibility lies with the adults. And Torbin didn't do anything besides drive to a locked door really fast.

[@captainDJ87]

$180 million budget, and they gave us the director's cut of episode 3 - the audience just got DUPED watching the same episode twice! This is frikkin insane!!!!

[@jim1242]

I think the disney investors may have a case to file a lawsuit against Lesley Headland and Lucasfilm for intentionally wasting money.

[@andedom]

It was a good episode though…

[@stevemps11]

It’s all money laundering at this point lmfao

[@Brook11223]

I literally said that basically watching an extended cut of episode 3 from a different character point of view.

[@mikestand8067]

You guys have never heard of Rashomon and it shows

[@deanlewis6109]

So Torbin was willing to jeopardise the whole mission and his entire career just so they could leave a few days earlier at the most? Then he agrees to lie to the Jedi Council, gets sworn in as a Master, then immediately goes into 16 years of isolated force meditation which he only comes out of so he can kill himself? Really? Insanity.

[@NattyPi]

I just realized that he would have to have been knighted right after this and somehow also attained the rank of master. but they frame it as he's been in isolation for at least 10+ years. As shaky and immature as he was there's no way he ranked up twice in that short of a time span. this makes no sense lol

[@deanlewis6109]

@NattyPi pretty sure they say he started meditating right after things went bad on Brendok, so the show isn't even consistent with its own logic cos he travels back, lies, gets promoted then just randomly (in the eyes of the Council) leaves to go into solitude.

[@tqlla]

No one on the council was like "Hey why is this dude meditating like this?" Is he getting paid for just sitting around for 16 years?

[@writingref]

@@sanzoftatooine perfect example of the Disney Lucasfilm story team not caring about consistency. Even Lucas, who did not read the old EU made sure to keep a running encyclopedia in those days Film theory did a great video on this lack of communication at disney lucasfilm

[@bajansamurai]

​@@writingrefDoesn't Morgan come after this though? All the Jedi must have believed was that force-sensitive women have historically found their way into the Night Sister order, and been trained in their ways, instead of being born into the Covens. They're also not wrong, since this Coven clearly are operating like they're a novelty and unnatural, and then Morgan was probably a product of a change in how some one order did things. It's not necessarily inconsistency, it's what could have established a change in customs.

[@writingref]

@@bajansamurai I thought of that too but clearly the nightsister clan is not the only type of witch on Dathomir. There are several clans, to include light side ones. And the clone wars clearly implied the nightsisters kept a clan of male zabraks as slaves for breeding. So . . . Headland should have known that one. The real answer is Tales of the Empire didn't communicate when this script was written. Its a small issue that can lead to larger ones.

[@bajansamurai]

@@writingref but what you're describing are all things that followed these events and you pointed out there are different clans. At this point 70 to 100 years before events such as Clone Wars and the OG Trilogy, what the Jedi know about Dathomir witches is limited. All they know is that Force users of various races come together and practice their arts, using the Force very differently than Jedi do. Over time they will learn more. What we know about the Nightsisters is that some time in the future they depict that practice of keeping males. It is likely a long running custom, but it wasn't one the Jedi witnessed beforehand to know any different, and it was not the practice of the groups they encountered on other planets (such as this).

[@nathanlienard8820]

Hey, let's use the force to hold the bridge, not to grab to 50 pound girls and pull both of them to safety.....so brutal. Everything about this is awful. But like a car wreck, I can't turn away.

Don't get me wrong, there's no way the show runners considered this, but Yoda even says "Size matters not." And then lifts an X-wing out of a swamp. So the actual weight of things shouldn't really be a consideration.

What takes me out of this and episode 3 is the fact that the children's version of the twins are not actually identical. Don't know why they decided for 2 different kid actresses for the past characters and just 1 actress to play both characters in the present. Make zero sense

[@AllGreyEverything]

Labor laws and the ability for the kids to interact would be my guess.

[@MostViewedTop40]

And crucially this episode says they are identical in the force. So it makes even less sense, although now it makes more sense that Sol couldn't tell them apart in episode 5/6.......IF NOT for the face tattoo and with the kids the fact that they look different.

[@MaMastoast]

The children share screentime a lot more than their adult counter parts, so it makes sense.. you can tell how awkwardly shot some of the sequences have been because they didn't wanna have both adult twins on screen in same shot .

The further Star Wars gets from the stars and from wars, the less interesting it is. In olden times, there seemed to be more spaceships, aliens and sprinting away from blasters while making funny comments about how in over their head they were. Like, the movies were mostly light-hearted and filled with chasing, being chased and ocassional moments of emotional depth (which made those moments much more effective). But now its almost all dialogue and quiet moments. Good for other genres, but false advertising if it says "Star Wars" on the box. 😂

[@Anthonycheesman33]

I thought from the beginning man I really hope they don’t want until the second to last episode to wrap everything up . Well I was wrong they waited until the last episode to wrap everything up lol.

[@Merrick1995]

Kristian, you are absolutely right in your assessment. I have been patient with the series and reserved judgement for the most part. Despite not liking some elements of the show I actually enjoyed episodes 5 & 6 and was encouraged to see where the series goes. But this episode is just like watching episode 3 again and adds very little to what we already knew. Sol and Qimir are the most compelling characters and the twins are so boring that I have no desire to delve even deeper into their backstory. Not only that, with only one episode left this series feels rushed and not completely thought through. What are they going to do in the next episode that brings it to a satisfactory conclusion from the fans perspective?

[@GregScottBailey]

I'm still in this until the end. Overall I've enjoyed this show and what they're putting together. But.... I can't deny that things aren't working for people. And so it's had me going back and thinking how I feel about the overall series so far with one more episode left. Put the biased pre-hate people aside, there have been noticeable critiques that even I can't overlook. The structure of the story isn't working. The 35 minute episodes aren't working. Only 8 episodes to tell a story that bounces between two many uncompleted/unfulfilled plots. Motivation from the characters don't fit the scenes/plot moments on various occasions. And there is one thing that bugs me that continues from JJ Abrams/Bad Robot Star Wars/Star Trek and that's a misunderstanding of time and distance between worlds in space, driving plots towards happenstance and not logical plot pathing. Again, I'm in it to the end. I love all the characters and actors involved. I do believe they worked hard on this and sometimes even hard work on entertainment doesn't produce the best results in the end. And I do hope this leads to Plagueis and if they do so, I hope it's executed in a way that, at the very least, has most people going "Okay, that part works. Lets go."

[@AncientOutlaw]

So nice to see concrete and rock catching fire again...

Sol was seeing Mae and the mom disappearing into the mist. That why he killed the mom. He feared for the child.

They are still so terrified of the word midichlorian. Until they get over that fear and lean into what Lucas wanted to do with them concept wise you will never get true star wars again. Love them or hate them - Midichlorians (not M count) is your measuring stick to judge if Disney ever fully embraces the weird mythology of Lucas

Nah you can keep midichlorians out of it. The OG Trilogy didn't need them and Star wars now doesn't either.

I don't even really know who Osha is, or what she values, or what she wants, or anything. The main character isn't really even a character. Sol is easily the most interesting character and I'm left wondering why this story wasn't told from his perspective from the beginning. I don't know what I'm supposed to think or feel from this show. There's a lot of interesting ideas in this show but it's not really ABOUT any of them. One episode left and I don't even really know what this show was about. The only ones that had an actual goal were Mae and Qimir, so why wasn't the show about them? Osha became the focus character but she was, basically, happy living her life on the Trade Federation ship and working her job. Mae hasn't really been the focus at all, but she's the one 'driving' the plot. I don't get it.

Im in it for Qimir and Sol. Those are who I'm rooting for. The twins are ally just pawns it seems like, literally born as pawns, so I lack interest in their fate, only how they are used.

[@TJFassler]

Mae did start a fire and trapped OSHA. Mom witched transformed to go help OSHA and Sol thought she was attacking. Mae led to every single witch death.

When Kristina keeps doing that, I can't 😂😂😂

Please talk about the end credit song with Steph and Mike.

Am I the only who finds it weird that Sol had this instant connection with two kids he saw from afar and then stocked them? Like they were just practicing the force, what makes him think they were in danger??

[@MaMastoast]

I'm guessing he felt in the force. To be fair, he was right.. the zabrac mother was really quick to snap

This is basically like playing KOTOR and failing a persuade check and everything goes left 😂

@5:40 - "We have to go in as a team. There's 50 of them" - "fine. But we must be vigilant". as opposed to "fine. But we must be careless". 80% of the words written down and spoken by the actors in this thing are worse than silence.

[@mikestand8067]

Why would they say they must be careless? That's literally the opposite of what they wanted to be?

[@Ashgarify]

Just saw someone else comment this as well. You're missing the point, I think. She's saying it's odd there are only 2 children and 50 adults.

[@a.scottanderson4490]

@@mikestand8067 that's the point - why would you say "fine. But we must be vigilant " to another police person type figure walking into a dangerous situation? You might as well say "fine. But we must breath air" or "fine. But we must wear clothes." Not a nit pick - boring and obvious dialogue builds tedious and paper thin characters.

You know what drives me absolutely crazy is the yellow light saber….. the temple guards are the only ones with yellow light sabers….. am I crazy? Maybe I’m knit picking but as soon as I see little things like that I’m out. That’s just one continuity thing that gets my blood hot.

[@the_oridinary_schmuck]

When Indara says "100 years ago this planet was cataloged as lifeless, yet this planet, Brendok, is thriving." Anyone else think it was supposed to be "100 years ago this SYSTEM"??? Either way it was an awkward line.

[@MaMastoast]

I thought I'd heard wrong the first time around.. figured my brain glitched and she actually said system.. not yeah no, she says planet twice, which doesn't make any sense

So, the fire in the corridor somewhere blew up the whole facility?

[@spookykouki8970]

Basically this episode was ep 3 with a few extra scenes that really doesn’t add to the story we already know. The main witch lady dying felt very cheap, Sol simply not using the force to pick up both Mae and Osha felt cheap too. This plot is not very interesting, considering we already saw this episode 4 episodes ago. Qimir’s episode was the most interesting since it’s the only Sith focused episode of this series that was advertised to be in the Sith pov

Master Torbin became not only a Jedi Knight but a Master in less than 6 yrs before he started the Jedi Meditative Vow. and then he takes his own life to something that wasn't really his fault. Graduating to Master Jedi use to mean something

[@PaulGallianoChannel]

Bwahahaha! You doing that swaying is pretty damn funny! 😂
