We’d like extra Poes and Han Solos and Landos in “Star Wars,” particularly on this reconstruction period the TV exhibits have largely been specializing in. We have to see that the New Republic is not simply making the identical errors because the Previous Republic. Why is each single particular person we have seen working inside this new system both incompetent, a secret Imperial sympathizer, or simply dumb as rocks?
All I do know is I should not be excited about how possibly the First Order did not actually eliminate something worthwhile after they obliterated the brand new galactic authorities.
I am not the largest fan of “Solo,” however I’ll give that film credit score for absolutely embracing the enjoyable journey facet of “Star Wars.” That one takes place in the course of the peak of the oppressive Imperial regime and nonetheless manages to seize the “Aw, shucks, we’re on an journey” feeling I really like a lot about “Star Wars.”
As I discussed above, I am kicking round all these ideas after solely seeing two episodes of “Ahsoka” and it’s extremely potential I will be confirmed flawed, particularly if the later episodes deliver again the “Rebels” crew to journey collectively in reside motion. Their dynamic can not help however seize a few of that feeling and if anyone is aware of that deep in his bones it is Filoni.
I nonetheless consider discovering that difficult stability between tremendous critical and light-hearted journey is the largest problem going through “Star Wars” in the meanwhile and I hope the juggernaut that’s “Star Wars” is slowly steering again in that course. The primary couple of episodes of “Ahsoka” are not that, however there’s nonetheless hope for the long run and no one will probably be happier to see that return to type than yours really.
