Good episode (didn't quite hit me emotionally as much as I wanted) but it is great to see one of my favorite SW characters back to feeling like herself again. -
Best episode so far. This is what I've been waiting for.
-
I dislike how the show seems to be really avoiding mentions of Kanan, which I guess is to avoid throwing another unfamiliar name at those who didn't watch Rebels...but as someone who did it just bugs me when he really should be mentioned in a couple scenes in this episode.
-
The episode is good with one really fantastic action sequence but paced a little weird, definitely could have used more runtime to let the character interactions breathe. I am hoping that Filoni really pays off all this table setting though. Right now it's not really hitting for me the way Rebels did.
-
I enjoyed it quite a bit. First scene with Ahsoka dragged a little and there was some awkwardness in all the exposition of stuff that has happened since Rebels but I was always interested. I don't really understand the refrain of this feeling like Rebels S5, obviously the characters return but the feel of the show reminded me more of the prequels weirdly. Scope felt very big.
-
I don't feel sorry whatsoever! We had to deal with this for how many shows...
-
This show is simply idiotic. How was it ever greenlighted with this absurd plot?
-
Meh, I don't see having unusual tastes as being concerning.
-
I prefer chronological just to keep the arcs together. It also adds more resonance to certain episodes, Rookies is great on its own but hits really hard if you've already seen Clone Cadets.
-
You are right. Weird that they put those right where video views used to be. Very misleading.
-
They do show video views for me.
-
If going chronological, watch "Cat and Mouse" and "The Hidden Enemy" before the movie.
-
Yeah they aren't great, not totally disastrous but it will need to be a pretty good movie to succeed. Twitter views are extremely high for some reason but I suspect there is some kind of ad/auto play thing going on there.
-
Of course that little jibe had to be thrown in, lol. Yes, the movie plays up the absurdity of every character. But for the women that manifests in a wide variety of personalities and attitudes, while for the men it almost universally manifests in cartoonish incompetence and arrogance. I agree, but all of this has nothing to do with saying that "non-intellectuals are an inferior breed of moviegoer," whatever that's supposed to mean.
-
Saying that "non intellectuals" are inferior is like the textbook example of snobbery. That said it is equally stupid to decide whether to watch a movie based on whether "snobs" like it.
-
...ok? Do you have anything to actually contribute to the discussion other than snark?

Barbie Friday Marcus 58951/184474, 1421 shows 0.95x BP2 (52.5 million) Oppy Friday Marcus 26153/86215, 667 shows I don't have appropriate comps for this but it increased fairly well on T-1.
-
It looks good to me. Not sure about BO as the trailer stats are pretty bad on YouTube but fairly decent on other platforms which makes it hard to tell. But I am excited.
-
There are definitely more than 4 reviews and the score cannot be that low based on the written ones.
-
It only gets worse and worse.

They probably can't account for fanbase interest which tends to be more concrete than GA interest. Nolan has a sizeable and engaged fanbase.
-
I think there's a good case for Barbie going 150+ if it can get to a low-20s preview. Friday sales are great with a better ratio than Spiderverse so I'm not really seeing IM significantly below 7. I guess the question is if it gets limited by being underscheduled, but it definitely seems like the demand is there.
-
Yeah this show pretty much sucks. I have found all the previous MCU shows to be at least decent, this one I'm having to force myself through. Nothing makes any sense and nothing has any weight.
