    Finally got around to watching the Star Wars Vision series this week. The first one is outstanding, and a few other episodes were really good.
    I really enjoyed the creativity and completely fresh stories. Other than stormtroopers and the mention of Inquisitors, I don’t think any other character is mentioned.

    I think a full manga/anime Star Wars series could totally work. Animated content is already popular with multiple age groups, and it allows you to bend some rules and minimize overhead at the same time. As someone who read most of the old EU, now Legends material, it'd be neat to see some of that stuff get some love. Hell, even as its own Visions series. This has been linked before, but it goes along with my thoughts.

    She is not white, would be my guess for many of the haters.

    Always interesting when the actors get targeted as if the writers and directors didn’t co-sign those performances. Really just goes to back up the bigotry at the heart of it

    I would agree with this. Her performance is a bit over the top and she also hasn't been written all that well yet. So it's two fold. Definitely has nothing to do with race. Wouldn't be the first time in Star Wars we've seen shitty writing and a bad performance.

    There have been plenty of characters written worse than her that haven’t gotten this kind of hate.

    people that attack actors on twitter don’t do it just because they dislike their character.

    And Rebels.

    There are a ton of episodes. 150ish between the two shows. But theres also some of the best star wars in there. Im not a big comic or cartoon guy. It took me a bit to get into them, but once I did, they were really enjoyable

    Clone Wars is the best Star Wars content ever created so if you like Star Wars watch it, and enjoy it.

    Still blows my mind D+ doesn’t give the option to watch in the right order. Seems like it would be an easy fix.

    Is it the same problem with X-Men the Animated Series? Cause that's another one that was notoriously screwed up in release order. Batman TAS is another

    Skip any episode where padme, jar jar, or the droids are the main character. Cuts it down by about 20-30 episodes.

    The first two seasons were fine, but 3 and 4 were messed up originally. Don't know if that was fixed on D+

    Padme is iffier than the others but you should be able to pick up the context clues

    There’s maybe 2 or 3 padme episodes that matter.

    There are articles out there that outline the most important Clone Wars episodes to watch that can be helpful. I want to say that you can skip around the first 3 seasons and that season 4 is where you can just press play and watch until the end of the series.

    The last 4 episodes of season 7 are the best Star Wars content ever created imo.

    Obi was never really considered a 5 star with all the measurables you'd want in a Jedi prospect.

    He was more of a 5 heart prospect with all the intangibles. Brought his lunch pale to the lightsaber battle and was the first and last guy out of the Jedi council each and every day type.

    Said this to a Hinge date a week back or so and they scoffed and said "that's basically the entire franchise then".

    I was like yea I know that's why it's getting stale.

    There wasn't a second date :(
