Lads, Star Wars just hit Kino. And it's all thanks to Filoni.

JJ is a hack, he made a typical blockbuster to appease the masses, while Filoni was quietly preparing his masterpiece.

I'll give you a TL;DR

>Ahsoka, Ezra and Kanan are sent to Malachor, an ancient Sith world, by Yoda
>They discover an exiled Darth Maul, who begins to manipulate Ezra
>Vader and three of his Imperial Inquisitors are sent to kill Maul
>Maul kills ALL THREE Inquisitors, and turns on Kanan, slashing his eyes and blinding him.
>Meanwhile Ahsoka challenges Vader, only to discover that he is Anakin Skywalker.
>Ahsoka refuses to leave him, like she did in The Clone Wars, and Ezra/Kanan make their escape, as does Maul in a stolen TIE Advanced ship that the dead Inquisitors left behind.
>The ending you see is the aftermath;
>Kanan and Ezra return to the Rebel Base, Rex realizing Ahsoka is not with them.
>Maul is escaped again
>You see the Sith Temple aaaaand.... Vader emerges, broken, and alone, the last shred of humanity left in him gone.
>Its heavily implied he killed Ahsoka, or at the VERY LEAST believes he has.
>Ahsoka is seen fading into shadows, mirroring her exit from the Jedi Temple in The Clone Wars, but it is ambiguous as to whether she is actually alive in that last shot
>Episode ends with Ezra opening a Sith Holocron that Maul said only the dark side could do.

It was a fucking phenomenal episode, who fucking cares if it was a cartoon. Absolutely beautiful, and that last shot of Vader walking out the Temple is too fucking good.

No fucking shit.

Ahsoka is a character that had time to develop, grow, make mistakes, learn, and became compelling enough that the audience feared for her life when she stood up against Vader.

Can anybody say the same for Rey? She was pretty much perfect the moment we met her, and she BEATS Kylo, in her first movie. What in the actual fuck? That's not how a heroes journey works JJ.

You can argue that Ahsoka has had dozens of 20 minutes episodes to grow, whereas Rey has thus far had 1 movie, but still.

They're to compensate for the Inquisitors lack of training.

Maul can do spinny shit on skill alone, but the Inquisitors dont have his training. They can't or they would try break the Rule of Two (in Sith lore, there can only be two)

So they have those Lightsabers to cheat.

Basically a generic weapon used by Jedi Hunters as a way to catch stray and generally untrained Jedi off guard. It also lets them switch fighting styles, etc, and is a multipurpose tool. A lightsaber is basically a finely crafted sword for a fighter using their own specific and distinct style.

Yeah. Literally everybody working on Star Wars has to acknowledge her existence. Can't pretend she never happened.

There's already nods to the cartoons in the damn movies mate.

TFA has direct references to Hondo, Vizago, and Ziro the Hutt, three characters that debuted in the cartoons.

And the writer on Rogue One says he is very interested in bringing characters from The Clone Wars/Rebels into one of the upcoming spin off movies.

Star Wars Rebels

First season is lackluster, but necessary as it establishes the premise and all the characters.
Second season is better, but still not brilliant. The season 2 finale, however, was very good, and a big step up from everything prior.

Before getting in Rebels you should watch some of The Clone Wars, which was the animated Star Wars show preceding this one.
Clone Wars started out really bad, even worse than season one of Rebels, but it got better as it went on. By the end it had produced some great arcs.
The show also provides some much needed character building for Anakin, making him more likable and his decent into the dark side more understandable.

See pic for a loose guide for The Clone Wars. The first 2-3 seasons can't compare to the latter ones, so don't be put off too much if they don't impress you.

It was one of the better episodes in this series, I'm really excited to see the direction they take it from here.

The one qualm I have with the series is the animation style. I'm glad they went with something a bit more cartoony and not hyper realistic but I think they went too much one way. You do very quickly get used to it, and space battles/droids are completely acceptable.

Actually I thought the same thing when I tried to watch Clone Wars. Turns out it's utter shit until midway through the second season, and then it becomes the best Star Wars ever made
>>
>>67768463
I don`t need shock value - I wanted to see Ahsoka either die on screen or fight until she forces Vader to flee.

They put all the important characters in one place, one location hyping it up in to stratosphere only to let that hype deflate.

It's not like the idea of it will extend past Rebels. The Inquisitor program has to be removed from existence by the time Rebels catches up to ANH, which is why Filoni had three inquisitors die in the finale. Once they are done, their lightsabers won't be manufactured and no one will be able to loot them and carry on using them. Out of the 4 inquisitors we've seen in Rebels so far, only one of their lightsabers didn't get destroyed somehow, but it got left on Malachor.

The new Star Wars was OK but It didn't feel like Star Wars. Lucas had this knack for setting the Star Wars mood. There's some campiness and stupidity involved in Lucas' production and I actually miss that.

The only moment that made me remember I`m a human being in PT was the ''You were my brother, Anakin'' line. I got choked up, a little.
TFA had three of those moments, for me anyway.

TPM and AoTC felt like new canon Chewbacca comics - frames passing by with a score in the background whailing all over movie, trying hard to compensate for flat visuals, dialogue and everything for that matter.

But that is, you know - my opinion.

I don't know, Clone Wars had a handful of episodes that were pretty good prior to that but for the most part you're right. Hopefully Rebels follows a similar trend but I can honestly say there's only been like 4-5 episodes at best including the most recent finale that I thought were actually pretty good. Also Clone Wars had a bunch of good characters but I think there's only 2 or 3 characters in Rebels that I don't actively loathe.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the finale and I loved Maul in this but I still can't get over the fact he's not dead. If you think about it, it's fucking ridiculous. It's nearly ANH and the pantomime villain maul hasn't kicked the bucket yet.

I see no use for Maul beyond OT as both Vader and Sheev die in RoTJ.
Same with Ahsoka - her master is dead and when he ''returns'' before dying, she`s not there anyway.

I watched all of the first season a while back. Calling a cartoon better than TFA is fucking joke. You have to reach and cherrypick two spread out shitty looking episodes or so to even begin saying that shit. And then the red dotted Indian quipmaster who never stops still shits on dramatic moments. It's shit. Just because it has potential doesn't mean it is better. No, it's a kids cartoon and it shows. Stellar looking movie made to appeal to all ages >>>> infantile bad graphics cartoon. Speaking of all ages I hope Rouge One is as dark as they're saying. They themselves announced it by comparing it to Black Hawk Down.

It's a long story but basically Maul survived, cucks Obi-Wan (literally kills his waifu) but gets rekt by Sheev, and goes into hiding.

maul rejected sith. Maul got robot legs. He uses dark side. If you want to watch the finale, all you need to know is that the sexualized orange alien was a close apprentice of Anakin and she betrayed him by leaving the jedi.

The other episodes of Rebels aren't worth watching, but the finale is pretty good.
>>
>>67774601
Anon you have some catching up to do. Maul doesn't die in TPM because of his anger, Sith training and Nightsister witch mother all saving him. Maul is also not a Sith once TPM ends, since to BE a Sith you have to be under the training of a Master (Sidious). Sidious moves on to Dooku, thus abandoning Maul once and for all. That downgrades Maul from Sith to average Dark Side user; these titles are not synonymous. Thus, the Rule of Two is not broken.

This is the easiest way to tell when someone is a fucking braindead pretentious cunt, who doesn't know what they're talking about and hasn't actually cared about Star Wars since they were 10.

The 2003 "series" was fucking 2 hours long, and was absolute garbage, yet fucktards like this guy will swear blind by it, while shitting on the 100+ episode show they hadn't seen. And the only reason is that you grew out of Star Wars before the newer show came out.

2003 was ok. It was brainless action for 2 hours with very little plot.

TCW was a character driven anthology of stories designed to expand the universe and characters, showing the shift in character and the Galaxy itself, from Episode 2 to 3, and it did it fantastically.

The only reason Genndy Wars "works" as a prequel to ROTS is because it literally goes right up to the start of the movie. TCW does better with characterization and making you retroactively feel even worse seeing Jedi cut down in Order 66.

TCW had plans to keep going until 8 or more seasons, with episodes planned for plots concurrent to and beyond ROTS and Order 66. Then George sold out and Disney cancelled TCW.
>>
>>67763865
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTFNwROFWaA

In the final bit Ezra's shown to open the holocron. Does that mean he's finally succumbed to the dark side since maul mentioned that you had to think like a sith to use it? I do hope they're going along that line.

Yeah, for people who don't want to waste 30+ hours of their life watching jar jar and some padawans laugh at outsmarting some droids while anakin tries to look serious and not laugh along, there's this awesome cartoon that fleshes out all the characters, provides a decent account of the war and provides a backstory that leads directly into episode 3

But it's a free planet, so do what you like

Dathomirian witches yes, they were concepts created by Lucas, and existed within the EU for a long time.

>>so, like, isn't it funny how random bounty hunters frequently fought anakin and obi wan together and survived? guess they're not so powerful
This never happened. Cad Bane is the only Bounty Hunter I can think of that took on Jedi, and he never won once.

>>you know how at the start of ep3, anakin's all like I'm much stronger than last time as a reference to when he got btfo in ep2? yeah, no.
Retroactively, this quote is referring to the last time they faced, which we know was in TCW Season 6. Use your head.

>>you know how anakin's mad in ep3 cause they won't make him a master and he feels like the council don't trust him? well, it turns out that between ep2 and 3 he actually was given an apprentice who he had hilarious adventures with in a warzone! but then he disillusioned her and made her quit. woops!
How is that a plot hole? If you knew anything about what you were talking about, it was the Council who disillusioned her, thus adding to Anakin's own distrust in the council

>>you know that c3po also frequently fought in the war along with jar jar binks?! oh, what fun they had together
You mean the one episode in Season 1 where they were with Padmé on a diplomatic mission, and there was no war in the episode whatsoever?

You're talking out your fucking asshole with this bullcrap.

>Bounty Hunters
You seem to hold bounty hunters to a higher regard than they actually deserve. The only one we ever saw do anything useful was Boba easily taking carbonite Han to Jabba. He didn't even do any of that himself; it was all Vader's trap and Cloud City's tech.

>Anakin's line to Dooku
I will give you this one. Though, they never actually fight Sidious outside of force visions.

>Ahsoka
Everything about her is just characterization for Anakin. The Jedi are shown to have to change their ways as the war drags on, and giving a non-Master an apprentice to train is one of those things. The Council itself is what made Ahsoka quit, since Mace pulled the whole "Lol this big mistake on our part was actually your Trial, I see that now with the Force!" bullshit. Anyone in their right mind should have refused to return to the Order then and there.

Yes, they did deserve it based on their idiocy. However, they made Plo Koon much more of a character we are supposed to like, and made all the clones have personality.

>bounty hunters
Cad Bane, who was literally the most prolific bounty hunter in the galaxy at the time, encountered two of the most prolific Jedi of the time? Wow, what are the odds.

>Anakin boasting against Dooku
Yeah that's stupid, but honestly it's more Episode 3's fault than the show's. It makes sense that they would have encountered him at least a few times before (for that matter, they only fought Dooku a handful of times in the show, no where near as frequently as you make it out to be.)

>because they won't make him a master and won't trust him
The council never made Anakin a master in the show. They gave him an apprentice, that's different. And it went pretty fucking bad. She went from being a good, responsible, rule following jedi, to a reckless and dangerous soldier, similar to Anakin. The council didn't trust her or Anakin, further cementing the rift between them.
>hilarious adventures within a warzone
You're talking out of your ass. The stuff with Ahsoka was no more lighthearted than anything in the movies.

this happened literally once. Threepio was personal aide to a senator highly active and instrumental in the war, and Jar Jar was a representative working under the same senator. It makes sense they would be involved in stuff.

Finn's entire backstory is in the book "Before the Awakening", also explaining the bloody Trooper at the start of the movie, and "TR-8R".

Maz's castle holds many flags from different iconic star wars characters, notably Ziro the Hutt, Hondo Onaka, and Vizago, all of whom were introduced in the cartoons.

The Star Destroyer at the start of the movie is from the book "Lost Stars", known as the Inflictor.

The Super Star Destroyer is from "Aftermath".

Poe Dameron's origin is told in "Shattered Empire" and his upcoming solo comic, explaining how he manages to be such a good pilot without force sensitivity.

All of these things were released prior to the movie coming out, orchestrated by the Lucasfilm Story Group, run by Kathleen Kennedy, who Lucas sold the franchise too. The LSG's job, what they were hired and paid for, was to unify the Canon so that going forward, from 2014 onwards, everything is on an equal level of canon. No tiers.

Because of this, we had countless things from TFA explored long before the movie was even out. Pablo Hidalgo of the Lucasfilm Story Group, confirmed just this wednesday, that there would be crossover between Rogue One, and Star Wars: Rebels.

So please, I know this board isn't known for having smart people, but shut the fuck up about shit you don't know about.
