If there is something i completely dislike in these new star wars shows, is the remove the helmet thing, why would you ever take your helmet off in a fight, the same thing happened with boba fett. Its like they re trying to tell us "LOOK THEY ARE PEOPLE, THEY ARE HUMANS, ITS NOT A STUNT MAN" lol

[@kaneanderson8626]

I noticed that too and I agree. In the OT, we all know that apart from A New Hope, it wasn't Prowse in the fight scenes, it was a stuntman and no one cared. I don't get why they are so driven on showing us the actors fighting, also Rosario Dawson is not a good swordfighter, so sometimes stunt actors are the best way to go because it can make an non-martial artist look good.

[@j.m.w.5064]

Even the first shot in this video says it all: The court room is just as devoid of any surface textures as the so called Jedi Temple in the prequels. So it looks like cheap linoleum floor with a cheap print, steps of the same material and plastic tables. It looks like a bad render of the most boring office meeting in the 80s. WHY can't there be SOMETHING tangible - stone slaps, wood, tiles, metals, anything? Architecture that looks alien. Or ancient. Or both? That's why The Foundation and even bloody Jupiter Ascending look sooo much better. Because it feels like their stuff was built by people and for a purpose. Not built on a screen as a random background. This whole universe is so sterile and lifeless now.

[@bedtimegames]

There's nothing wrong with the idea of remaining silent and portraying some emotion of regret and stone walling it's more just that the delivery is VERY awkward and makes whats happening with the characters very unclear. Makes you feel like youre waiting for something to happen cause theyre just standing around weirdly, and then nothing does.

Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader are looked at as being two seperate individuals .There is nothing wrong with Ahsoka remembering Anakin as the man he was and the lessons he taught her. Especially after he had already redeemed himself by killing Darth Sidious to protect Luke and returning to the light side of the force. That's why at the end of "Return of the Jedi" Anakin appeared to Luke as a force ghost right next to Obi-Wan and Yoda. Also, Moff Tarkin was the one that destroyed Alderaan, not Vader. Not to mention, Obi-Wan, Yoda, and the Jedi Council aren't blameless when it comes to Anakin falling to the dark side of the force.

Disney Star Wars used to make me upset, but now it just makes me lethargic. There was a time that I could go on and on about what's wrong with it as a whole and on a movie/show basis... But I don't want to care anymore. The best I can muster is to watch videos like this that summarize and critique. The sad state of DSW has smothered out any passion from when I loved Star Wars. The best thing about DSW was the incredible fanfictions that fans and talking heads on KZbin have been able to create. Some truly intelligent and soulful retelling of the DSW were made trying to make the laziest storytelling into something that captured the magic of Star Wars as it is in our hearts and minds. I think this year it's important for us to recognize "content" versus genuine Art. Disney, and by extension Marvel, are driven to make "content" that will keep the box streaming, balancing the lowest risk while appealing to the lowest common denominator. They have no concern for Art, or genuine commentary, as that has risk. Eh I'm just done with "content". Great video!
