Alright, alright, alright
Always glad to here from one of the Evryday Erik Holy Trinity. Can you believe I talked to Pedro Pascal last night? True Story.
I gotta say the actor is nailing thrawn. He was my favorite part of the episode. And I strangely thought Ezra was pretty cool! But the episode was meh. 😂
Yeah, I thought Ezra was pretty cool using his kung fu. I wanna see more of his powers. And the guy playing. Fran is doing a good job. But I’m a little tired of the teasing, let’s see everybody’s master plan already. By the way, you’re not gonna believe this, but I actually talk to Pedro Pascal last night. I’ll tell that story on the next video.
Aye!!! The king gives us what we want even on a vacation! You the man!
There were some good parts in the episode, but as a whole, it was definitely not a lot of progress for the story. I mean Thrawn kinda wasted his own time in distracting the heroes cause as he said, as soon as they’re done loading, they’re out. Like why even waste time fooling around with them.
Definitely interested to see what happens with Shin. I think she’ll turn.
As far as the finale, well, keep in mind Dave is going to make a movie to wrap up all these shows, so I’m not expecting any sort of resolution.
Jesse - Thank you! Ya, what is Thrawn collecting anyway and what does Baylon want? There’s a lot to wrap up. They’re hoping for a movie, but I’m not sure they’ll get one. 🤷♂️ I don’t see a movie with this group of characters doing very well. They should have made Heir to the Empire with a new cast. They should have done a lot of things different. Side note - I met Pedro Pascal in line for the Last of Us house - still stunned.
Yeah Mon Milfma is back!!! Love the thumbnail Erik 👍
Thank you, Scott! Yeah, I’m having a fun time in the pool with Ahsoka and Hera. I’ll give the full story next video, but I met Pedro Pascal in line down here. True story.
Hey Thrawn just an idea why not fly your whole frikin star destroyer over the hermit crab people and annihilate them from like 500 feet above the ground? Oh yeah Ahsoka and her invincible blaster proof ship would have probably taken it out no problem... but hey he's almost ready to hyper jump back to his home galaxy and then do what exactly? The guy acts like a 5D chess mastermind and gets made a fool of again and again, he's lost any sense of menace as well as Darth Baylan who decides for no reason to sit on a hill and watch his apprentice get wrecked. Actually was having some hope for this after last episode too...
Yeah, you’re right. I’m losing hope fast. They tricked me for a few episodes. I have a feeling this is going nowhere. And a lot of it is nonsensical. They had the pieces here to do something interesting but it’s just ending up to be another Disney+ show. It’s not looking good. The last two nights I’ve been listening to the original trilogy radio dramas. There are more detailed version of the original trilogy scripts. I really appreciate them after watching all of this crap.
Spot on sir fantastic review again. Let’s see the last episode I’m not super sure about it
Thanks Archer! Ya, they have a lot to wrap up. I’m not convinced they can do it in a satisfying way.
Now that, that is a great thumbnail! Enjoyable review. 👍I'm still really enjoying this series, but I am aware of issues regarding the plotting and dialogue. But still. I'm defo looking forward to the final episode.
Glad you’re back Erik, I agree this episode was pretty meh. Crazy after how much I enjoyed the last three. Wild how Andor could make simple council meeting scenes into something with stakes. This one fell completely flat.
You are right, nobody does slow better than Andor. You’re never going to guess who I talked to you last night, Pedro Pascal. It’s true, I’ll tell the story on next weeks video. I feel bad. He’s a nice guy.
There’s absolutely no way you can recover from this shit show of an episode. It’s done. I truly thought man maybe , just maybe Star Wars can be good again. But then we get shin (a freaking APPRENTICE!!) force pushing a Jedi who, not only stood his ground with Vader, but defeated freaking thrawn. Forced pushed him to sleep almost
Yeah, there’s no way Darth Hottie is going to throw Ezra. They would make a nice couple though. Maybe makes Sabine jealous. The show needs a little bit of sexual tension. Hell it needs a lot of things.
Only 3 things made sense: Huyang asking Ahsoka how she thinks they will even end up in the same galaxy as Sabine, a question she blows off. Mothma telling Hera " put aside your personal feelings about this situation and don't pretend you don't have them, how bad a threat is Thrawn?" In that moment we had the Mothma from Andor. Finally, when Sabine tells Ezra she is being trained by Ahsoka, his first word is "why?". Everything else was bad to mid. Ezra and Sabine's dialogue was cringe and she still doesn't tell him everything about how she got there. Baylon releasing Shin was unexpected, even by her. It might have made sense if we had any idea what he is searching for. I liked the last few episodes, I am still suspending my final verdict until its finished but I have a bad feeling about the finale.
Very very good points Paula! I agree! I’m worries the finale is going to be rushed. This episode needed to set up a finale. I’m still not sure what Baylon or Thrawn are doing. I did meet Pedro Pascal Wednesday - that was unexpected!
@paulab5264 He actually was really nice! He smiled and said something to me but I couldn’t make it out.
Sabine and Ezra would be dead if the stormtroopers hadn't ignored their orders to shoot twice.
I think there's a lot of confusion at the office as to who they're trying to appeal to, there's a lack of consistency in tone. The script and delivery mostly sucks here, its got the same gravitas as the guys from Friends bantering.
Lol, ya, Ezra saying “wait, let’s talk” was terrible. This was a step backward. The script, delivery, story (if there is one) definitely sucks. There wasn’t much to like here. It better be one hell of a finale to save this. At least my thumbnail will be spectacular.
I hope you tried to drown a naked Kathleen Kennedy during that skinny dip. I've never been skinny dipping as I have never been skinny.
And now I have to reference how hot Diane Lee Inosanto is again. But my favorite is Ray Stevenson RIP.
This episode was a step down from last weeks imo.
Love the content love hearing your take on it. Cheers!
Well, I didn’t drown Kathy, but I did meet Pedro Pascal Wednesday - I really did! I also hear you on Ms. Inosanto, I have a thing for Asians. Looking forward to the finale so I can get ready for Loki. 🤷♂️
Idk why this was in my recommended, but goddamn if you didn't condense into one starting picture why the lot of you is gonna be forever alone.
Still sounds very meh. Don’t regret not watching it. Thanks for taking another one for the team.
It was pretty bad this weak. I was too kind. Just stop by for my glorious thumbnails! Cheers!
Is Thrawn being played by Elon Musk ? I know it isn't but god it looks like him . Not a bad episode, I like Ezra as the jedi monk
Lol, Elon Thrawn, he’s always letting people go. I don’t know I wanna know everybody’s master plans. They’ve been teasing me too long let’s get on with it. That Finale better be two hours long. By the way, I did talk to Pedro Pascal last night, and that’s the truth.
@@EvrydayErik you just know we'll have nostalgia overload with the last episode with kanan jarrus ghost pop up and no doubt the mandalorian will make a special quest appearance. That's cool , how was he ?
Yes. I'm 50/50 on the ep. Hoped for something heavier. Also disappointed by the VH troopers. Not sardaukars unfortunately. Kinda useless. I didn't like Ezra's "Wait!...". How the fuck does that work? Jedi mind trick? The moment Ahsoka joined the fight was a bit cheesy/sloppy too. I wish a bit more harm was done to the main characters...that always raises the stakes and tension. The ninja turtles gave me some worrying Gungans vibes during the episode ..but it was balanced alright (I guess). I'm a fan of Dark Crystal so I choose to look at them from that angle. Overall not a BAD episode but not that great either. It would have been ok somewhere in the mid of the season but as the last act a bit weak. Filoni should have directed the last two eps of the season.
Ya, this would be an ok episode in the middle of the season but did nothing to set up the finale. Ezra should have done a mind trick, that would have made more sense. Missed opportunity with those storm troopers. I have lots pf questions and we’re running out of time. What does Baylan want and what is Thrawn collecting?
Be careful not to get cursed by Vecna… I really only enjoyed 3PO and Ezra here. Babylon makes no sense here. Thrawn is consistent with Rebels. Same kinds of tactics. I mean he has to appear to win as we know he ultimately doesn’t. The whales knew where to go as that is the planet where they took Ezra/Thrawn/Chimera to originally. I’m sure these space whales know a great deal more than they share. I doubt ep 8 is longer than 60 min. Whatever Babylon is doing will get a rush reveal. There is no future for him unfortunately. Shin will either die or become the new Ventress as the Night Mothers take her under their wings. Sabine may die. She kind of served her purpose, find Ezra. That’s done. She ain’t going to become Jedi. She’s not a very interesting Mandalorian. I wanted to see more helmet action. The Mandalorians are designed to best the Jedi. She did use here armor more than just a shield this episode. Bummer the troops are just standard troopers who can’t shoot. Too bad they aren’t like the ghost in the armor like Marrok was. I’m sure it will be an okay ending. It’s no Boba Fett riding a Rancor…
Interesting ideas! I don’t know if Dave will kill Sabine. I would be surprised. I’m curious how they are going to wrap the season up in a satisfying way, if they can. It will probably feel rushed. They missed the opportunity to make the storm troopers special. I guess the red stripes are just so Hasbro can sell a “new” stormtrooper. It would have been cool if they were gassy. I’m also curious about Baylon’s fate. So much to wrap up. 🤷♂️ Or lead into a movie we’ll never get.
This was the dumbest episode I’ve ever seen; right next to the Jack black show on Mandalorian. Let me tell you, 1-6 was good. I even dared saying “finally Star Wars is good again” and then episode 7 happened. It’s the equivalent to having a no hitter game bottom of the 9th 2 outs and walking the last batter. I really wish Star Wars stops letting unqualified directors direct important episodes. Instead of diving into the mysterious Baylon and shin they made a space ninja turtles episode minus the pizza and rat
Being that I’m a Pittsburgh Pirates fan, I can appreciate your baseball reference. Yeah it was just people running around and I guess they’re fighting, but I don’t really care. Nothing advanced the story. The finale better be amazing. I’ll share you what happened last night, I actually talked to Pedro Pascal. It was a pretty surreal experience, and now I feel bad that I made fun of season three of the Mandalorian.
Gonna get hate but I think Ahsoka is the most bland , boring and flop content on par with Boba.
The force is female. Notice how Ezra wont use a lightsaber and has to be saved by a woman non stop ? Course, cos he is a man. Thrawn is just dull. They have a starship and power that could destroy both Ezra and Sabine. Yet they are playing games. Then you have the most dumb entrance of all time.
AHSOKA turns up , after Sabine betrayed her in what we tought was Ahsoka's death. The response? Ahsoka smiles "Hey its good to see you again"
Like what the heck is this writing? You betrayed her and she should be dead cos of you and you smile her and say nothing about it? This show is BUM hahaha
Agreed man. The force is female has killed Star Wars. Tbh I have a hard time trying to determine what’s worse; this show, BoBF, Mando season 3 or Kenobi…all of them had absolutely horribly writing and scenes with a couple of ‘cool’ moments sprinkled in
Lol, I hear ya Ramon. Personally it’s better than Boba, Obi, Mando Season 3, but it’s a close call. It needs a strong finale to amount to anything. I still like Darth Stevenson and Hottie - but have no clue what he’s up to. Luke Skywalker should show up and slap everybody. This show is on very thin ice. Thanks for checking in! Odd coincidence - I met Pedro Pascal in line for the Last of Us haunted house in Orlando. He seems very nice. 🤷♂️
@@EvrydayErik you should have grabbed his butt. Winked and said “this is the way” ha ha. Hope you’re well brother. Love ya man
@@EvrydayErik I am starting a short podcast each week and we should hook up. Gonna be a 30 min chat each week that covers and say anything you want ! Doing it for Thursdays so would have to be recorded prior and footage of your cam and audio sent over. You gotta get involved cos we would be funny
This episode sucked…Completely filler, zero stakes and plot armor thats thick af! Of course Ezra doesn’t take his saber back or use it. #theforceisfemale. Of course Ahsoka just happens to come out of hyperspace at the exact planet she needed too. Choreography was horrible again. Only thing remotely interesting about this episode was Baylan. This was meant to hype us up for the finale next week? Okay. Cheers Erik
Well said Jay, I couldn’t agree with you more. I did not enjoy watching this episode. By the way, you will never guess who I ran into tonight in the line for the last of us haunted house. I’ll share the story with my review of the finale. It is Star Wars related.
@@EvrydayErik I just don’t get it man…All we ask is for Star Wars to be good again! Why is Disney and Lucasfilm so incapable of writing compelling television. They just cannot do it. I swear the only thing keeping me invested in Star Wars if the vintage collection figures/hot toys. And even then I feel bad because I’m still handing this incompetent company money! Anyways man have a good week, keen to hear your finale review hahaha
6 was awesome.... Episode 7? Pretty $%## terrible.
Lol, Yep, they’re going to waste the small window of opportunity they had with these characters. It’s not looking good.
The thumb nail art u have is out of this world!😅😅😂
Thank you! What do you mean art? That’s an actual photo from earlier in the day. 😜 Ahsoka and Hera know how to party!
@@EvrydayErik true dat! Were referring to KK and another foreign head on the bodies or the real cosplayers lol. "Great shot kid that was one in a million." Were all the force is female now 😀
