The entrance of the Master at the end sent chills down my spine. Legitimately terrifying when he's floating just in the background and come down like freakin Dracula.

2024-06-30 02:08:26 +0000 UTCI don't understand the hate for this show. Besides the obvious anti-woke crowd. I'm enjoying this fresh setting and exploring something with actual depth to its worldbuilding (my biggest gripe with the sequel trilogy is how hollow the worldbuilding is--which is why I think the Clone Wars era is the best)

I have a feeling this will be revealed to be similar to the Gideon massacre, where someone (Torbin in this case) who was following orders found themselves in a tragic confrontation, was traumatized by their own actions then turned on the ones who gave them their orders.

2024-06-23 00:41:04 +0000 UTCThrowing my two cents into the "who's the Master" speculation: my guess is ... Torbin! He has a slight build, he was clearly traumatized by something that happened the night of the fire and might blame the Jedi, he's been meditating for over a decade, which means he could've Force Projected his image to Mae and Qimir. (and using the image of a Sith, the Jedi's boogeyman) Qimir could have easily faked the poison so that it was non-lethal, Torbin could probably fake his life-signs to appear dead, and ... he has a scar. And we know scar = bad guy! (I have a secondary lesser theory that Qimir actually is Torbin, but I'm not sure we've seen that kind of "glamor" used in SW before)

2024-06-22 00:17:57 +0000 UTCI had the same exact rection as Kat - Mae's turn seemed out of left field and contrived - almost as if "now that the Big Bad is on the scene, we don't need Mae to be the evil one anymore." I can buy her changing her mind after finding out Osha was alive, but it wasn't well written.

2024-06-21 15:16:12 +0000 UTCThe thing I find hilarious is that the haters are using Star Wars terms to describe themselves as the good guys who wont take it anymore(in terms of woke star wars) and are going to rise up and rebel against Disney... And I look at them and think dude you're being a total Sith. Star Wars has always reflected the political views of the people making it especially George Lucas' as mentioned by Parker. I keep seeing this stupid argument about Star Wars being like a Big Mac. if you go to McDonalds and order a Big Mac and they give you a Cheese Burger. Its not a big mac therefore this isn't Star Wars. THAT ISN'T HOW ART WORKS.

2024-06-21 00:22:20 +0000 UTCEven on rewatch I don't think this was a good episode. It felt like it was over in ten minutes and barely anything happened. If I was binge watching I probably wouldn't've minded as much but on its own it's just weirdly structured. The scene with the moth felt probably the weirdest to me. Sol orders everyone to stand back and then the moth basically flies right into his lightsaber, so we don't even know if it posed any danger to begin with. Unless they're saving it for later why not just have the Jedi fight a whole swarm of them? The last scene was great but it could just as well have been the next episode's cold open. Hopefully the next one will be better, I'm very curious where they're going with this because Mae's revenge is clearly moot and I don't think we're gonna spend four episodes fighting the "Sith", are Osha and Mae getting kidnapped?

2024-06-20 22:57:07 +0000 UTCI'm fairly sure the kill you thing was the more dramatically phrased way of her saying she was going to fake their death so the jedi would leave. But that things escalated in other ways unrelated to her plan. But who knows. Excited finding out. :-)

2024-06-20 22:54:05 +0000 UTCMy top suspects for the Master so far are one of Mae and Osha's moms or Qimir. I'm leaning more towards one of the mothers, because of the requirement to kill without a weapon paralleling the coven discussing how they view the force. Also, Mae saying that the Master calls it the "First Lesson" seems very pointed to me and very much something their mothers would've said to them. I agree with the want for more character beats, though I could always use more character beats in any show. They're some of the best moments lol. I do think Mae making the decision to turn herself in really makes the "if you leave, I'll kill you" to Osha not really make sense to me though. One of my off the wall theories is that the Jedi implanted false memories in Osha's head, because we saw her witness all of the bodies and Mae setting the fire and the first thing she says when she wakes up to Sol is "what happened?" That's probably not at all it and it's really that Oshie just witnessed some of what happened that night but my brain is going a million miles a minute and it's just something that stuck out lol. I think a costume design hint for Mae being a more morally complex character is the purple cloak. Purple being a middle ground color in Star Wars sometimes and the moments of softness they are portraying in Mae (not killing Bazil and saying "hey, little buddy", not killing the parent in the bar with Indara, giving Torbin the out of turning himself into the Jedi council, etc.) with the moments of resentment and fear in Osha makes me think they're trying to suggest our twins being morally gray and nuanced. The Master floating down and the slow walk forward was legitimately intimidating. I do think he wants Osha alive which suggests he won't just kill Mae, especially if the Master is Koril or Aniseya. I've also been using he pronouns because it's what they use and my theory might be wrong lol. Sorry for the essay lol! Great reaction and I agree with everything you said in the intro.
