      To be fair, the bar for advancement in the Rebellion is A LOT lower than it is in the Grand Army of the Republic and while Ezra might have some Jedi training it's training he received from a Padawan who never completed his own training. All put together he's NOT the equivalent of what a Lt. Commander Jedi in the Republic army would have been.
      But then again, he's just as if not more qualified to call an audible on a mission as Zeb or Ryder Azadi are. Zeb's never been the creative one in the group and Ryder's basically an amateur at this, he's a politician not a general.

Ezra had to struggle and fight for YEARS after being taken as a padawan to be a Commander. And younglings have it sloooow and easy playing with remotes. Ezra growing up knew hardship, oppression, and what it meant to fight and grind. THAT was his youngling phase. And they just did open warfare full frontal assault type stuff, whereas Ezra along with other members of the Ghost Crew specialized in special operations surgical insert strikes taking down mass targets with limited resources type of missions, which is a skillset a very small proportion of those in the Republic had.

Yellow lightsabers are for Jedi Sentinels, who are more independent from the rest of the Jedi, and they also spend time involved in more clandestine duties such as helping citizens of the galaxy, etc. It would have been pretty cool to see another yellow lightsaber user imo.

    I mean being critical is fine, but if your approach to watching something is always to force your own narrative, talk over useful information, and reject the story that's being told then I don't think you know how to enjoy storytelling. Why approach it with a contrarian mindset? It just seems stunted and mark of someone who doesn't know how to engage with media. Anyway, looking forward to the rest of these episodes.

    • @KelappanKing
      @KelappanKing 24 дні тому +1

      💯
      Honestly, I only really watch them because I'm really superficial and their videos have good production value with nice visuals.
      The quality of the actual reaction and engagement with Star Wars material is disappointingly low. They don't seem to know the lore very well (understandable because they're normies). They miss all the references to previous episodes and other shows/movies (because they talk over a lot of dialogue). They record several of these a week, so they're probably also tired.
      But maybe that's a feature, not a bug.
      I've observed in general that when reactors aren't engaged with what's going on, they tend to just make jokes and innane non-value-add comments to fill the silence. It's like when you're invited to a meeting and don't know/care what's going on. This is a job/business to them; they follow views and subscriptions.
      We shouldn't necessarily interpret their willingness to watch a show as genuine interest and engagement in the material. I can't really blame them: it's hard to be interested in everything and to replicate the degree of enthusiasm of hardcore fans. For lore-heavy material like Star Wars, the gap becomes extremely obvious.
      If a viewer wants casual fun times with what seems to be a cool group of people, this channel's pretty good.
      If they want proper engagement with Star Wars material, Blindwave, Sesskasays or Gaxelle are the go-to channels I'd recommend. There are others too that you probably know.

    Yes, they do. Quite a bit, actually. Rebels are always shooting out cameras. I first noticed them in _Star Wars 77_ when Luke, Han, and Chewie go into the control room to rescue Leia aboard the Death Star. They end up shooting out like 10+ cameras (or what certainly appear to be cameras) in the detention block.

      Mickey just likes to complain a lot. Many of their reactions with him in it just depicts him as complaining and being bored all the time. You should watch their reaction to Revenge of the Sith. In the review part, Mickey states that the movie was boring including the fights and how he only likes the memes from it and the other prequel films. Out of all of them, Mickey has a deep hatred for the prequels even though the hate is now centered around the sequels. Nowadays, I just ignore him or watch reacts that don’t have him in it.

The Interceptor has a turnrate of 180 degrees a second, while the Defender Elite comes in at around 220-230 (iirc)? the Defender Elite's top speed is 1800 km/h, which is much faster than the Interceptor's 1250 km/h. it also wasnt shown in the video but the Defender Elite also has a tractor beam. Also the Defender is 130 MGLT and has a maxium acceleration of 4,300 G. Im not too sure again I forgot but I believe it could accelerate from 0 to 1800 kmh in less than a few seconds.

    This is the lowest point of any Stormtrooper representation in the SW canon universe 😭😂 almost makes it impossible to take the Empire seriously
    Whenever I think about these two troopers and the cats, I think, “the Empire really should’ve stuck with the Clones”

      While the clones were mostly the same as soldiers, the Stormtroopers are from all over the galaxy, vastly more diverse than the clones. So there’s going to be a lot more variation in personalities and skillsets; some Stormtroopers are incredibly competent, some are terrible, and some are in-between. Just because these two troopers were some of the worst doesn’t mean that all other Stormtroopers are the same.

      @@TheGreater-ScopeVillain I completely understand that, I know stormtroopers can be really effective,, especially when they’re not fighting main characters with plot armor. But the incompetency of those two was just dumbfounding; it is a “kids” show so the enemy is mostly a bunch fools besides the main villain (Thrawn). Still, if I had to make a case to why the Empire should’ve stayed with Clones who, ALL had the same standard of training and high level of competence; then those two troopers would be my exhibit A

      @@JCShadow0202 Yeah, but unfortunately, cloning is a long and expensive process. And through this costly process they could never consistently produce the numbers that could even compare to the numbers they could get from galaxy-wide conscription. Clones are also vulnerable to potentially bio-weapons that target their genetic structure. Such a thing would cripple the Empire if they relied purely on clones for their army.
      We do know from canon sources like The Bad Batch series that the Empire did not phase clones out completely, but maintained specialised units for various purposes. Even some of the Emperor’s Royal Guards were clones. So the Imperial military still counted clones among their number. And Thrawn is far from the only non-foolish Imperial in this show. Ones like Governor Pryce have actually been quietly competent throughout most of the show. And the heroes will soon find themselves against an enemy far more intelligent and dangerous than even Thrawn this season.

    I love TIE defenders. Still one my favorite ships in Star Wars. The speed. The sexy engine. The armament it’s packing. Then beautiful design.
    Thrawn always wanted that to be the empire’s main weapon over the Death Star. A bunch of top of the line fighters that you could buy and use over an expensive Death Star.
    7:33: What a badass you are, Grand Admiral Thrawn 🩵 🤍
    Love that homage to the 1970s film Patton too

      frfr, btw fun fact I believe the TIE Striker and TIE Defender Elite share the same engine noise, idk watch some scenes of Rogue One you'll hear it, I was shocked as hell when I heard that for the first time watching Rebels* "huh that sound is familiar"

      Oh Force be Good, I hope to Force we see TIE defenders in live action in the future, now that Thrawn is back to re-order their design and construction. Why did they disappear off the face of the galaxy after that one fuel supply blowing up and Thrawn's disappearance anyway? I dunno.
