The definition of insanity is watching every new Star Wars thing when you already know pretty much none of it is going to excite you.
Your short reviews are how I decide if I can be bothered to watch these new Disney shows. So thank you for saving me 2 hours especially as ive not watched any of the animated stuff. I'd much rather just listen to you guys review them than watch them, way more entertaining than any series Disney has put out recently.
Thanks again for the great content 😊. Always a great day when there's new RCE/RCA to be consumed.
@haveanotherpinacoladaI value their opinions and enjoy their reviews. I don't really see a problem here.
disney world sounds like hell
It is oh it is
Thrawn books and Dark Forces games are more Star Wars than actual Star Wars is now.
What's crazy, is that I still know 2 people that enjoy new Star Movies and shows on some level.
Walt Disney grew up about a mile away from my house in the adjacent Hermosa neighborhood of Chicago. Of course, Chicago was a very different landscape back then! Now what really blew my mind was my childhood house was about a half-mile from Midway Games. I LOVED Mortal Kombat back in the 90s!
I think Dave Filoni wanted it to look as much like George’s Star Wars as possible for better or for worse. The shot composition is directly out of the prequels
Oh man I thought those Dark Forces and Mysteries of the Sith cutscenes were so cool when I was younger.
Oh I did too! I thought they were basically new Star Wars movies. I mean this was before the prequels, so you had those and you had the Christmas special.
@@RedCowArcade don’t forget Rebel Assault II. Kid me looked at it as the movie in between Empire and Jedi.
They aged pretty badly, not because of the content, but because our screens got better.
A lot of those early cutscenes in games relied on people having small screens and not being able to fully grasp how lousy they looked.
You are the only two people left that are watching star wars

Yes Stoic doesn't have to be a wooden character! Kevin Costner showed us this with Waterworld. Also what is the deal with Ashoka and Kenobi not using any of John Williams's music and themes? That's arguably a huge part of what makes Star Wars feel like Star Wars.
Ah, yes, the beloved Waterworld...
I work for a company that is printing all of Lucus Film garments. From Ahsoka to Lord of the Rings. We've been printing the stuff for their staff for around four months.
The aesthetics are just GOT they look like knights and the apprentice looks like a page boy
Not accepting that the ability to judge good from bad is a rare trait, is a formula to never-ending frustration.
Forget art, that ability is even rare in moral issues, and that's way more important to live a good life than having good taste in movies/games/etc
People give Eisner a lot of grief for his mistakes managing Disney, but remember when he took over Disney they were on the verge of total destruction. He used to say "you can't fall off the floor" and with that mindset he took big risks like pouring millions into revitalizing their animation, opening new parks, and developing teen/adult brand elements. Basically, everything gen X and millennials are nostalgic about from Disney came because of Eisner's leadership.
Conversely, Iger took over a thriving company about twenty years ago and now it's losing billions. Rather than take risks and innovate, Iger's style has been to buy up competing studios or established IPs and pump out assembly line entertainment products. His conservative, offensive realist approach to business lacks the vivaciousness and dynamism of Eisner's.
Iger's management can perhaps best be described using a line from Jurassic Park:
"...it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling it, you want to sell it!"
Iger thinks things are successful because they carry the Disney brand. In reality, the Disney brand commanded respect because of the quality it demanded in its products. That reputation has swiftly deteriorated over the last 5-10 years. If it isn't corrected soon Disney will be back to the days of The Black Cauldron, Midnight Madness, and potential bankruptcy.
New Star Wars at this point might as well be a Kickstarted The Office spinoff or something. Even the good stuff doesn't feel special anymore.
You brought back memories talking about story land. Used to go when I was a kid. I remember we’d go on the Turtle Twirls, and while waiting in line, my dad would analyze which turtle is the fastest, then try to nab it for us.
None of those "Disney" Characters at Storytime, or here in Oakland, CA: Fiaryland are Disney Characters, they existed before Dsiney and a lot are folktales that don't necessarily have an authorized, they are that old.
I feel crazy for finding Andor and the animated Star Wars shows boring. I just can't get my heart into it, but I constantly hear (in real life and online) that those are some of the best parts of the Star Wars lineage, and I just don't see it. I'm glad they have fun, but I am so lost on where those are supposed to be great.
I found 85% of Andor to be SUPER boring and I don’t like any of the animated shows. - Frankie
You're not alone, friend.
I think the dialogue in those animated shows is actually *worse* than the prequels.
Don’t kill me but at this point I’d rather it look like Dark Forces 2 cutscenes.
How 'bout that Dark Forces remaster? Finally some good "new" Star Wars content to look forward to.
@joshtoten that is exciting, but did you see how it looks in 60fps? It looks really fast and slippery.
@@RedCowArcade Yeah, it does look a bit headache inducing. But I'm sure that can be solved with settings meddling/modding... or buying the Switch port lol.
I’m not up to date on most of the Star Wars stuff but, if you guys recommend it or say stay away I’ll listen. You guys got solid opinions.
I watch stuff like Babylon 5 so I don't necessarily mind things looking cheap if the story is engaging, but for a franchise that built its reputation on stunning special effects it's disappointing. I feel like Andor should be the baseline for Disney shows on a technical level, or at least the peak stuff from Mandalorian.
I was never a big Disney kid growing up...I guess I was too busy watching horror movies and teen sex comedies at age 7 and 8 😅. I will say, a thing that Marvel has been doing that annoys me to no end now, is their mid, and end credit stingers that takes years to pay off, if they ever pay it off now
Mark Hamill cleverly did fan conventions sandwiched between force awakens and last jedi. Nowadays he wouldn't be able to do that, because of how last jedi changed the fanbase forever.
Would recommend Lagoon in Utah. Much better than Disney World. Less crowded, more rollercoasters, and cheaper prices. Not far from there is Rice Eccells Dinosaur Park. Both are great for kids. I bring this up because growing up I'd go to Utah in the summers and would go to Lagoon. One year my parents brought me and my siblings to Disney world and we hated it because the lines were way too long and the rollercoasters sucked. Highly recommend Lagoon.
The problem is that Ahsoka is a character who should have never existed and who was only created in 2008 for TCW (a vastly overrated and unadulterated lore-breaking Saturday Morning-calibre cartoon which the lowest common denominator of the Star Wars fandom inexplicably adores) to pander to small girls. No prior Star Wars release ever even slightly implied that Anakin/Vader ever had a padawan as a Jedi, and the TCW series radically altered his characterization as a result. Now, Ahsoka is even more of a Christ figure than Anakin himself, having essentially been resurrected and surviving every major military conflict of the three Star Wars trilogies, despite not having appeared in any of them (save for her brief voice over to her fellow Mary Sue in Rey in The Rise of Skywalker).
Sabine Wren was always an over the top fanfic-tier character as well, having inexplicably been a Mandalorian warrior, bounty hunter/mercenary, rebel, and quasi-Jedi padawan all by her nineteenth birthday. Now, in their adaptation to live action, these previously animated characters have lost almost all of their liveliness, charisma, and charm - especially Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s Hera and Rosario Dawson’s stoic and almost emotionless Ahsoka, who bears absolutely no resemblance to Ashley Eckstein’s more endearing original portrayal of the character.
As for the plot, it’s vacuous and moronic video game-tier nonsense involving MacGuffins, fetch quests, and stiff cutscene esque action sequences. I couldn’t agree more with your criticism of the costume quality and lazy UA-cam fan fiction-tier cinematography, which has now disgustingly become an industry standard.
Look forward to the Story Land video, I have fond memories of that place. Btw, I believe Winnie the Pooh is now in the public domain, though what images are fair game and which ones are not is murky. Even so, screw Disney. My sympathies aren't for an exploitative corporation with a soft monopoly on the ownership and manufacture of culture.
I want to be cautiously optimistic about the show. I think Disney relies too much on it's back catalog to fill in the gaps instead of taking the time to properly explain and flesh out these new series. Of all of the costume issues, Ahsoka's head-tails (her "hair" as it were) are just foam when it's shown over and over that it should act at least a bit more hair-like and have some weight. It's pretty disappointing to see that sort of thing when she's literally the main character of the show.
No time
Are disney aware?
@@HeyJoshyJosh Not as aware as Bimmy in his assholish variety video
Rock Punk ya know?
I’m glad I gave up on Star Wars after revenge of the sith
My daughter is 5 and Frankie… I felt your description in my soul 😂😂
Present Day “No Time” James Rolfe and the Slobs could genuinely produce more compelling Star Wars and Indiana Jones content than Disney’s Lucasfilm can. That’s just how abysmal the latter has become under the Walt Disney Company.
Frankie calling out Star Wars normies as "folks" lol.
If you think about it, it's kinda self-centered to frame Anakin's turn to the dark side as a personal trauma, to the extent where stopping him is less important than Ahsoka and Kenobi coming to terms with the trauma and dealing with it in their own way.
I mean, Vader KILLED a lot of people. He destroyed literal planets, destroyed the entire Jedi Order, murdered children, decimated entire armies... and the greatest consequence of that as presented in Disney shows is "All of those dead people makes Ahsoka feel sad. But, now that she understands that it wasn't her fault she can move forward, past HER trauma. Shame about the BILLIONS of other sapient beings."
I mean, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka have now been established as being COMPLETELY able to kill Vader and end the suffering of the entire galaxy, but don't, and haven't taken that opportunity to do so. That's, like, incredibly childish and narcissistic from characters who are now portrayed as wise mentor-figures to a new generation who inspire hope throughout the galaxy.
Hey frankie, I may be out of the loop, but i haven't heard your opinion on the new tmnt. A bit surprising cuz you're such a turtles fan . Im assuming you're just not interested in it
I do want to see it, but I didn't make it out to the theater, so I'll wait for streaming.
@@RedCowArcade ah makes sense
Don't get your hopes too high. I can't wait for the 35 minute teardown.
@@DeformedConscience I haven't seen the movie yet myself, but Im interested in hearing their perspective, whether they liked it or hated it
Besides just having content which i get, I don't know why you guys keep watching all the Marvel and SW D+ shows when you know you won't like them. It kinda just becomes a broken record deal y'know
Since this was Filoni, Ahsoka is a cool character, and they're covering the events of Heir to the Empire, I thought maybe there was a strong chance this could have renewed sense of story and purpose. Also, I actually really liked Boba Fett and Mando Seasons 1 and 2. If I somehow FACTUALLY knew it sucked before I even tried it...I don't know, I'd probably still try it, I like having my own opinion, and people do ask us for our opinion. Seems silly to me to be like "why do you even."
@@RedCowArcade well you say "since this was Filoni" but you also say in the video that the majority of Filoni's contributions to SW are "terrible cartoon shows that everyone likes for some reason." I get opinions are more shaded than like or don't like, but it comes across so heavily weighted towards "it's painful to us to watch this stuff" that wondering why you keep coming back for me doesn't seem so silly a thought? And considering you said Ahsoka "looks like fucking shit" and was "agonizing" to sit through I'm sure I'll be scratching my head when you post more videos about it down the line. Just my opinion as you have yours.
@@branellicus1545 I'm not sure why you're so confused. We review pop culture movies and TV on this channel. Right now, most pop culture content is bad. And we have fruitful discussions, I think, about that fact. If it was 2017, we'd look like we love everything.
Zero interest in any Disney Star Wars going forward
I couldn't even make it through to the end of episode 2. It's so dull.
I haven't watched clone wars or rebels either and this show gives me no reason to care about Sabine, Hera or Ezra.
I lost all interest in Star Wars since Disney took over.
The writing, editing, pacing, directing, and acting of some characters were pretty bad. There's still hope for the show. But my God this show solidifies my annoyance its Filoni being put on such a massive pedestal when he is such a hack. Especially when he is in charge
Stop supporting Disney! You know they have MEN dressed as princesses? ! To interact with little girls, its sick.
I love you guys and this take is just not it…. Sorry
Haha uh oh, here it comes. The declaration of an L take. I’m interested though in how you can see performances this flat and production this rushed and think it’s a solid show. To each their own of course.
@@RedCowArcade Im not saying L take because that’s cringe I just think, you guys come from a more old school approach of Starwars, See Im young then you guys I grew up with the prequel‘s, watched ever Ep of clone wars , and rebels, I love starwars old an new, you guy a just miss part of the story here with not watching Rebels which is the shows fault, but these characters have been a around for while and have been thought alot so they way there are acting in the show is the perfect emotion of the situation. It’s not a happy time. This is not a happy show, And you guys are not fans of the prequel‘s to start and Dave is a child of the prequel’s so the show is going to have similarities to those movies not the originals. You have 1000% better eye for production then I could ever do so for that I will take you opinion high on that ,I will not argue against you on that one.
@@RedCowArcade see y’all like andor where I thought it was slow and boring, it was amazingly shot and had amazing acting but like an HBO TV show my parents would watch after I went to bed lol not Star Wars that I grew up watching sadly.
@@THECRAFTINGBROTHER “Like an HBO show my parents would watch after I went to bed”. How old are you? lmfao
@@classic_colin a fresh 28
Imagine a milked to death product being shit, huh
The newest Disney+ Star Wars show isn’t good? Ahh, sou ka…
