The transformation of Ahsoka from cringeworthy annoyance to Best Character was so miraculous and unexpected.

She easily has the best character arc in Star Wars. Second is either Ezra or Luke

Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:Does Clone Wars get any better? I watched the first three episodes and it seemed like boring as hell tripe made for little kids. Yes, it gets much better as it goes on. Deals greatly with the fact that war sucks and people die. Looks into the society the clones have built for themselves and how good people treat them as people but others essentially treat them like droids (which are arguably also people, star wars is rife with injustice). Not every episode is great but there are great episodes. Of course if you find it "boring as hell tripe" it may never live up to your lofty standards though, sirrah

Normally I'd be wary of them introducing Jedi into this show, but they haven't done a misstep yet, so I think Rosario and the writers will do a good job.

Don't know how soon he started that, officially. Probably a few randos out there that hid, other failed padawans and sith apprentices that hosed off.

Sir DonkeyPunch posted:She's evil now? Awesome No. She got kicked out of the order near the end of the Clone Wars series because she was framed for terrorism, worked with Ventress for a short while trying to get her name cleared. She was ultimately cleared when the real culprit was caught but she decided to decline rejoining the order. Then she was an intelligence operative for Bail Organa's rebellion cell during the Galactic Civil War. What she's been up to since the end of the Galatic Civil War is mostly unknown; she spent at least some time working with Sabine Wren, the mandalorian from Rebels. She's a light-side force user but isn't a Jedi. The Ahsoka novel is worth a read. It's YA level so it could have been a bit deeper but I'm almost 30 and still enjoyed it. Fills in all the continuity gaps between Clone Wars and Rebels. The audiobook version is narrated by her voice actor; I'd recommend it.

There were definitely a good handful out there after order 66, that's why the inquisitors were a thing in the first place. Vader also did loads of jedi hunting (though I'm not sure how much of that is still canon).

There are probably also backwater planets that nobody remembers with their own little force traditions. The Dathomir witches got exterminated though, so presumably the Emperor isn't fond of the concept. Squizzle posted:just retire twileks. togruta are an across the board upgrade It kinda bugs me how their faces are so visually complex. Like generally I don't like keeping track of a bunch of facial markings, but also their markings are symmetrical geometric patterns, so they just don't seem like the kind of patterning that would occur naturally. It's kinda nice though how Ahsoka was a made the member of a pre-established race and then later on there are more togruta. A lot of alien races are one and done.

I have absolutely zero comment on that person's claims or about anyone's role on whatever side. I do want to ask this WITHOUT bringing names or gender issues into it at all - does it strike you as a bit odd that a family would hire a "handy man" as a full time employee, as well as pay their full rent at an apartment, AND pay their moving expenses? Does that seem like a common thing that comes up? It just seems like "Hey we're going to pay you a living wage, your full rent, and pay for you to move across country to do this at your leisure" would offer you a job title other than "works odd jobs around the home"...
