Corona 379 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I really don't understand SW fans. This and *most* of the Mandalorian are at most just okay quality shows and the majority of the fandom act like they're godlike masterpieces, while The Last Jedi got hated for being "too childish, bad jokes and going against canon". The way this show is too childish, has bad jokes and goes against canon literally in the first ten minutes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then watch them again. Thought The Force Awakens was fun as well, also thought Rogue One was excellent but watch it after the original trilogy. I wouldn't bother with any of the other films. I found 3 & 8 just about watchable. The only reason to watch 1, 2, 9 or Solo is to argue over which one is worse. Can't comment on any of the series.

This show is pretty much pure fan service (which is why its more enjoyable) and The Last Jedi is the obnoxious opposite of that buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILM remains THE industry leader in movie visual effects ooh yeah thanks for that, I'm saving this list, sorry if my comment felt rude I didn't know that! it's pretty amazing, I know that LucasArt was his video games company but now it's totally gone, Monkey Island was part of it, I miss it Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand why some might see them as obnoxious, but I personally don't. This show tho, lemme remain positive, this is me being positive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bionic 37,571 Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Episode 3 was...OK...the Bad Batch storyline was a copy of ones we've seen in Empire Strikes Back, TCW, AND Rebels so I'm kinda over it... The Kamino story is going to be interesting tho buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bionic 37,571 Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 This week's episode was sooooo good, lots of throwbacks to Rebels. Not sure where this show is going in the long term. buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
judaspriest 934 Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 While I dont dig this show (I guess I have kind of outgrown Star Wars), it really feels like the closest thing to Republic Commando 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it feels like the Bad Batch squad are just a plot device to enable fan service every week lmao. Their lack of air time this episode was criminal. If they wanted a 'rise of the Empire' show like they seem to from BB they should have done it as birth of the rebellion buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The psycho sniper is the traitorous one, really? In the cancelled Commando game the psycho sniper was gonna be the first soldier of the Rebellion!
