I only watched a few episodes of the first season.  



Couldn't get over how the Troopers were buffoons and the Rebels " all that, cool and they knew it ".




The stormtrooper incompetency is somewhat canon.




But why? Clone Troopers kicked ass.




Most of the Clone Troopers at this point are either dead or retired from old age. And the Emperor felt that he could have better control over an army made up of regular humans than rely on clones. Plus, the Imps felt it was cheaper to give some farm boy from Tatooine a blaster, some armor, and train him up for four months and them ship him off to his unit, than it was to train one clone trooper for ten years.

Those were academy cadets and one was a Jedi padawan. Not run of the mill troopers.

I've seen a couple of the interviews with the actors, and I'm impressed with how much fun they appear to be having, and how seriously they are taking their work.

I liked the Clone Wars series (except for the Mandalorian retcon, I liked what Traviss was doing in the books) but didn't really feel Rebels because it is an affront to the glory of the Empire.

I hope Vader kills carrot with a vagina. Ventress was better than Tano because of how she changed as the series went on while Tano's shift was rather sharp at he end.

Having not seen the first season of Rebels, why is Rex not serving the Empire? Vader was loved by the troops, why would what was his second in command turn? Was there some clone purge or something?

I think it's because Rex and his pals discovered that chip implanted in their heads, and in particular Rex feels guilty for letting Fives down in the first place. Or so I imagine...

She is a bad ass when it comes to saber play.  I don't see Vader doing it, just because they have history and he might not be able to take her in a straight up saber fight.  

They got a lot of fan mail on Ahsoka, so if they kill her off, people are going to be pissed.  Ventress, ya, lets let Ahsoka or Vader, cut her head off Count Dooku style.

I was hoping Ahsoka would become at least semi-regular, looks like I got my wish. I guess she kept her sabers after quitting the Jedi order. The introduction of Darth Vader is going to be really cool. I wonder if Ahsoka will know that it's Anakin. When she quit she told him she knew he was losing faith in the Jedi. Who ever would have thought a kid's show would have such a large adult following? I know it took me a long time to even give Clone Wars a chance, but my nerdlinger friends kept telling me to watch it, so I finally did, and got hooked.

I'm pretty stoked for this new season.

Vader will likely kill Ahsoka during a season finale. I expect Ventress to show up as well....and die also.
Star Wars Rebels is ok, but I think the Clone Wars was better.

The thing is, though, Ahsoka will probably not live, due to the fact that she does not appear in the original films.

Her death will probably give more meaning to Luke redeeming his father, however.

Same. But luckily I had my DVR to record every episode and I found an episode list online. Turned out I had all the episodes so I marathoned them one weekend. I can't wait for Season 2. I think there is a special on this Saturday night.

I also like how they went with the Ralph McQuarrie version of Vader.

I may be wrong...but I don't think they are doing the season starting then...I think they are throwing us a bone and the rest will start showing later in the year.

You would think with how popular those are....along with Agents of SHIELD....DC and Marvel would have developed shows for year round new episodes.

I hope they don't.  This putting out one show, then waiting a month or so until continuing the season is stupid.  I almost stopped watching the first season because they took a big break in the middle, making me think they ended the season.

As long as they didn't clone Spike Spiegel , the Rebels have a chance.

Looks like according to the Star Wars Wiki, Mando'a is now a official canon language.

It's already hinted that the distrust Kanan has for Rex is mutual.

Might be due to Krell in the CW and what Anakin did in SW:EP3.

It is also part of the new canon and all those great books I read are now "legend". But I have to admit some of the EU shit was getting a bit ridiculous.







Yeah the EU started getting more "star trekki".  Although Rebels was decent, they were totally ripping off the Firefly idea.
And firefly was ripping of the Traveller role playing game, which Joss Whedon played in college.    



Your point is?





Booya!

Which I found to be a colossal waste of money.

Imagine how many Star Destroyers they could have built, how many troops they could have raised and trained, how many weapons and ships they could have manufactured, all if they didn't sink a hundred trillion credits into that battlestation.

Hell, they could have put a ship destroying superlaser on a Super Star Destroyer like they did in the Legends portion of the EU, and it still would have been far cheaper than the hulking moon sized battlestation.
