Really? I thought rebels looked allot more cartoon-y :-?

I watch it with my son. At first I didn't care for it, with feelings similar to Burn's, but over time it really grew on me. My son loves it, he would dance during th saber fights.

Also, Billy Dee Williams reprising Lando? Pure epic win.

I still hate Lando for what he did at Cloud City.

But season finale? AHSOKA! Glad to see they haven't abandoned everything Clone Wars.

The Clone Wars still counts as official cannon, which I guess is something.

I was shocked when she came down the ladder. I was expectng a very young Princess Leia, or Bail Organa.

Bail would have been the obvious choice. Wouldn't Leia still be young?
And I may have cheered a little when it was revealed to be Ahsoka.

From the little I saw of her in the finale episode, she seems pretty no-nonsense and a little brooding. I've only watched the Clone Wars debut movie, but it's easy to guess at how she'd feel about Anakin's descent to the Dark Side and all the things he's done in Revenge of the Sith.

She wouldn't know. She left the Jedi Order before Order 66 was given.

Oh. Just my fanfic brain at work, but it's not too much of a stretch for her to have heard the rumors and stories circulating around the galaxy at the time. I mean, I don't think stormtroopers are above gossiping about Vader, and rumors will find their way into a cantina one way or another.

Either way, I can't wait to find out what she's been up to all this while.

HAving just caught up yesterday with Rebels, I think Lando, Tarkin and the final episodes are what really made the series, and brought it back to a decent story that actually has some impact on the rest of the wider series (despite A New Hope being what it is since the 70s). I was much more enjoyable towards the end than the beginning, so I also agree with Burn and Ironhidensh on that.

Season 2 could be really really promising, if it's Vader vs Ahsoka as the over-arc. Very much so.

I remeber reading somewhere that season two may have a guest character in the form of a certain desert dwelling former Jedi.

So, while digging for the Obi Wan rumors, I find something better: the trailer for season 2 of Rebals. Can't link it using my phone, s let me give you two scenes from it.

Captain motherf*cking Rex, and Vader smacking Ezra around like a b*tch. More Asoka as well.

I'm looking forward to star wars VII. I might have to watch rebels as well.

You're okay, I don't care what Burn says.

Burn and I are like Obi-Ewan and Anaaaaahkin - dressing gowns, sexual tension, and loaded gaze.
Oh, and terrible acting.

ah good to see Rex walked away from the Empire. He was one of my faves from Clone Wars.

News Credits: 25 · Sat Apr 18, 2015 4:40 pm

So rex has turned an AT-TE into Howl's moving castle?

So apparently the Knight from Gamesies of Thrones, (I haven't watched more than 30 minutes of the show so i don't remember her name,) the really really tall chick, is the stormtrooper, which I thought was a shadow trooper, turns out it's just really chrome. Because in the future everything is chrome.

I think a lot of people expected Gwendoline Christie to play that character - glad it's confirmed!

Alright! Rex is back! So some clones weren't dumb automatons like those in the Revenge of the Sith.
