So what is the deal with this show? I haven't been paying attention, is it any good? I've heard people shitting on it, but people also shit on Clone Wars even though it was pretty great from Season 2 on.

If you like Clone Wars then you'll like Rebels.

I think Clone Wars is better though.

Clone Wars was shit and filled with too many canonical inconsistencies even within its own canon. Rebels is the better show. Sure they don't travel anywhere outside Lothal but the story and characters are far more likeable and its spinoff material has dozens of references to the EU. This show is pretty kickass. Although I'm mixed about Ahsoka but whatever.

Rebels is turning into a sequel to Clone Wars bringing in all these old characters.

Have Ahsoka around 5 years before ANH doesn't really make sense, but then neither does having Ezra or all these Inquisitors.

Filoni pretty much confirmed he and George have it so that there were Clones that disobeyed Order 66, who are thought of as traitors to the Empire.

The masked Inquisitor woman is probably going to be a twist on who she is.

I'm thinking it's either Ventress or Barriss.

If you let canonical inconsistency get to you I don't see how you could possibly enjoy anything Star Wars related, not even the movies are terribly consistent within their own trilogies.

They are still aiming it towards kids (lol like Clone Wars right?). The whole bit of Vader using the force to try and have Ezra cut off his own head is pretty damn dark though.

It's not like it's a turbolaser blast anon. The speeder bikes on Endor probably had more powerful lasers then a regular stormtrooper blaster but Luke deflects those just fine

Laser fire from a fighter should be considerable more powerful though.

In Phantom Menace the Naboo fighter can shoot through the shields on Droidikas while the hand guns can not.

Honestly bringing back those pirates and TCW characters is a bad idea. This series needs to be its own thing and not rely so much on filler characters from the old show. Especially those freaking pirates and their flying saucer.

There will be an episode explaining how they broke free of that. The Clone Wars show this follows up on went out of its way to describe the exact mechanism that made the clones perfectly loyal, Rebels is by the same people and I'm sure they aren't just going to ignore that.

am I the only one who noticed that Sabine's armour changed slightly, and her haircolour at some point?
or is anybody going to mention the (proto)B-wing and (proto)A-wings, but the suspicious lack of Z-95's?
Or what about minister Maketh Tua wielding a blaster? (Here's to hoping she'll join the rebels at some point, might make one hell of a cool story-arc)

I also love the fact that the clones think so little of the modern stormtroopers. It's like "yeah, we know their aim is shit."

Genetically, yes. Rex and his fellow Commanders like Cody underwent the same training, yet for some reason Cody and pretty much almost every other Clone Commander in Legions that were NOT AS ELITE OR CLOSELY INTERTWINED WITH THE EMPIRE did.

>>2276
>Breaking free of something taught from birth that for all intensive purposes is instinct
Even the best indoctrination only goes so far, what actually kept the Clones loyal was a biological inhibitor chip implanted into all of their brains. This is what allowed the almost all of the clones, including most of the ones in the 501st legion, to carry out Order 66 without a second thought. Rex and friends got around it somehow, and I'm sure will be explained. Maybe we will even get a flashback episode.

>Genetically, yes. Rex and his fellow Commanders like Cody underwent the same training, yet for some reason Cody and pretty much almost every other Clone Commander in Legions that were NOT AS ELITE OR CLOSELY INTERTWINED WITH THE EMPIRE did.

You seem to be under the impression that the Clone Troopers were all emotionless drone soldiers, which was a notion thrown right out the window almost immediately after Episode II in Clone Wars media. The idea is they started off that way, but quickly developed their own different personalities based on their individual experiences over the course of the war.

>>2263
Come down trooper, I feel your woes, but most of that stuff is still easy to maintain without upsetting the possibility of the return of the EU. Its likely the clones were still trained but also had the chip implanted in case they said no. The old geezer clones are few, I'm sure the rest of the clones are with the 501st. Darth Vader didn't die in TCW.

They can't change up the CG model too much so I guess they're just making minor cosmetic changes. Sabine overall just seems like a very bland character.

I don't like the presence of the A-Wings, they should have just used Y-Wings.

Why of all the commanders would Wolfe leave dont get me wrong I love Wolf pack but I want to know why. Rex was pretty self explanatory since that whole Fives thing and maybe the 3rd clone is Boil might be pissed since Waxer died.

The A-Wings don't bother me as much. Just claim they're R-22 Spearheads and the problem is solved.

That B-Wing though, it's gonna be pretty hard to justify even a prototype years before Yavin and Admiral Ackbar.

Well both Rex and Boil lost something I bet the empire sent Wolfe on some suicidal mission losing the pack.

 No.2390

Maybe Rex was with Wolfe when Order 66 happened.

Wouldn't be the first time commanders teamed up.

Also it should be noted something happened that caused Rex to not being Commander of the 501st during Order 66 and that fuckwit Appo is Commander during the raid on the Jedi Temple.

More speculation but maybe Rex was fulfilling his role as an ARC trooper and wasn't near any Jedi when the Order came in. Not having to carry out the order and seeing all the fallout from it could have a profound effect on a clone trooper who wasn't forced to carry it out I would think.

 No.2399

But wouldn't have someone figured this out when Rex, who as I've said before, would have a 99.99% chance of being at the Jedi Temple during Order 66 was not shooting Jedi? Sure Ani didn't believe him, but if Rex really cared so much for all the Jedi why didn't he tell them? If Plo Koon's Commander (Who is with Rex) was free, why the hell did he let Plo Koon get fucking shot down? I'm having to do fucking mental gymnastics as to why they didn't tell the other Jedi when clearly they got the chips out because they cared about the Jedi so much.

>You seem to be under the impression that the Clone Troopers were all emotionless drone soldiers

I didn't say that. But I was always told, figured, and anyone I asked assumed that the Clones were trained like this. I mean, it's a more plausible explanation that the Clones were taught from the start that Order 66 was a last resort kind of thing where when it was ordered, it meant that the Jedi were trying to go fucking Ayatollah Khomeni on the Republic's Government and that even the most skeptical and kind hearted of Clone would have been trained and knew that Order 66 was something the Chancellor would have to do begrudgingly but with good reason. You can make friends with a terrorist, but anyone would half a brain would not hesitate to shoot him if you were told he was going to pull a gun on you.


 No.2475

>>2467

From what I can gather Order 66 was not something the Clones knew about or trained for themselves, it was a directive programmed into the bio chips. Thus the episode where Fives uncovers this fact and tries to warn everyone and is killed as a result. Rex was apparently no longer in command of the 501st at the time of the assault on the Jedi Temple, so maybe this incident with Fives led to him learning the truth as well. He would have been wary about openly talking about it because of exactly what happened to Fives. Maybe what they will go with is he and a few other Clones he was close with manage to go rogue before Order 66 hits.

Yeah, it undid a few stories, but that shit was cash, probably one of the few things about cgi CW I liked. The final 2 seasons were probably the only ones I liked.

Generally, having fans working on something doesn't end well, but Filoni has been doing pretty good in my book.


 No.2842

>>2841

At first I thought he was just making the franchise more "Lucas-y". He's pretty much George's successor. That being said, once Filoni gets a story going, he can really nail it.

The Clone Wars were pretty stagnant until the middle of Season 2 and I thought Rebels could of had a better first half. But overall, I'm glad that they kept him around for Rebels.


 No.2847

>>2842

Well that's because Lucas was heavily involved with Clone Wars during the first two seasons, it was basically his pet project at the time. Then he got bored with it and left the show behind, which is why there is such a huge spike in quality from Season 3 onward.


 No.2854

>>2467

Even as a kid it seemed pretty fucking far fetched to me that they would just turn suddenly. If they had trained at birth to know about Order 66, I refused (again, even as a child) to believe the Jedi wouldn't find out somehow


 No.2869

>>2841

I dunno if fans working on project neccesarily makes it a risky venture. Especially with franchises that are heavily fan-maintained as Star Wars, I believe that a fan of the first three movies(Ep's 4, 5 and 6) Would do a better job at directing a series like Rebels than a brand new director.

Pretty much the only risk that is involved is the cluttering of many story-lines working simultaniously.

Personally speaking, I think choosing Filoni for this chapter in star wars history was about the best thing they could've done.

Granted, Clone Wars S1 and 2 were downright bad. Ahsoka was annoying as all hell, the clone-trooper stuff was mediocre at best, and Anakin/Obi-wan stuff was boring.

For me the stuff got interesting when the larger story-arcs started popping up. I also like that the lightsaber fights became more fluid over the runtime of the series. At first it had this sort of stand- strike, stand dodge, stand strike feel, where the later duels became much less stop-motiony.

I just watched it there and had a vibe that he intentionally let them go so they can lead them to other Rebels?

In fact pretty sure that is what he says. Also he knows Ashoka is alive so wondering if he has plans for her.

I just finished watching the episode, and sith-spawn was it dark.

this is sure to make some disneykiddies cry~

I also find it interesting that they've pretty muched killed off the last bit of levity the Empire had to offer in this series. It sort of was to be expected, but I had hoped for a redemption-story there instead. Nice plot-twist though.

9/10 good episode.

Space-fights were slow compared to some of the other stuff from Clone Wars or the movies though.

>Space-fights were slow compared to some of the other stuff from Clone Wars or the movies though.

Lack of budget really shows in some scenes.

The TIEs are generally very stilted in their movement and the Star Destroyers are really lacking in detail.

Real reason is they can't have them escaping from Vader every week or else he'll look weak and the Emperor will wonder wtf is going on.

They need Inquisitors to be the jobbers.

Yeah, it really shows indeed. But I suppose as the series progresses we'll get better visuals in the end.

God damn…I mean I knew that they were going to do Vader's character justice, but this episode officially reinstates his status as a BAMF for me:

>tfw he burns Tarkintown and kidnaps all of its citizens because fuck you

>tfw those citizens are most likely being tortured by the Empire because fuck you

>tfw the only reason Tua was killed was because she thought about defecting from the Empire and because fuck you

>tfw Vader tosses Kanan and Ezra's salad, only to let them escape with the fear of clinging to their pathetic existences because fuck you

>tfw Vader single handedly BTFO's the Rebel fleet because fuck you

>tfw Ahsoka knows Vader is Anakin

>tfw he won't give a shit and will most likely mind-rape her into joining the dark side

>tfw she will refuse and will get her shit rekt because fuck you

THE TIME HAS COME AND SO HAVE I

Noticed that there is less Stormtrooper deaths so far this series, along with TIE fighters destroyed. Looks like they are trying to make the Empire feel powerful again.

>It is a period of civil war.

Rebel spaceships, striking

from a hidden base, have won

their first victory against

the evil Galactic Empire.

Empire was actually getting their ass kicked on a weekly basis, who knew?

Vader isn't going to be around anymore so I expect them to revert to status quo of weak empire and invincible rebels.

Technically the greater organized Rebel Alliance isn't a thing yet. There is no all out Galactic Civil War at this point, it's just isolated terrorist cells doing small scale acts of sabotage and piracy.


 No.4362

Well either way a first victory just before ANH doesn't really seem very important now that the Empire gets their ass kicked on a weekly basis.

Not really, stealing the Death Star plans is several orders of magnitude above anything that has been accomplished so far on Rebels.

well, it sure came as a shocker.

Then again. looking back, she was the last part that was actually both positive and likable about the empire in the series, and the empire needed to re-assert itself as a total badass.

I'd have loved to see Tua defect to the rebels, and use her knowledge of the empirial methods and strategies against them. But that's all water under the bridge now, unfortunately.

we can always start producing an insurmountable amount of porn and post it on tumblr to at least piss tumblrtards off.

Y'know… make it into a pavlovian reaction that each time they see her on screen they remember all the lewdies, and hide in the corner wiggling in their fatmounds talking about "my soggy knees".

You could try just watching them you know, Clone Wars gets pretty great after the third season and Rebels is off to a pretty nice start so far.


 No.4483

So I watched the S2 premiere. Why does Vader sound so off? Also, what day does it air?

I went back and started watching the first season to get myself up to speed.

Just finished the episode where Ezra is a fake cadet. Is the black kid who ends up staying behind to find out what the deal is with his sister the black Stormtrooper from the Episode VII trailer? That would be pretty rad.

>>4483

You know I instantly thought that they just got a sound alike for Vader as they have for all Star Wars media since forever, but I looked it up and what do you know that actually was James Earl Jones. Guess he is just getting old.

The rest of Season 2 is going to start airing sometime this fall with no date given yet. Also the timeframe seems totally wrong on that, it would be like 50 years between Rebels and the ST.

You'd think that they'd show the Season this summer rather than show the premire and then air it sometime whenever?

Not much actual airing of shows this summer. That's probably always the case, though. I know that network TV is especially dead during the summer.
