As in not all positive, or not good takes?
David Tennant is doing sterling work as Huyang. I read that the drone is properly ancient - his tone reminds me of Culture drones at times, and "Ah, so standard operating procedure" was a great line.
I'll limit my snarkiness to gently poking fun at the idea that the humans have to leave the room so the holograms can have a chat.
Not everyone is enjoying the show. I think after Disney has pumped out so many subpar marvel and Star Wars stuff people are a lot less forgiving than they used to be. But that may be for the best
It’s also hard to judge right now.
I’m not enjoying Ahsoka as much as I’d like to, but I can’t make a great judgement call just yet. What we’ve seen may play really well into the last episodes, and I may really love this show. It’s too early to tell.
I didn’t like Andor all that much for the first 5 episodes, but in Episode 6, I felt like the it all had been working up to a great episode. I would judge the first 5 episodes differently after watching episode 6.
Are these episodes great? I’m enjoying them, but I may enjoy them way more depending on how the last half of the season goes.
Yes, this is about where I am at with the show at this point as well. I still wish I lived in a world where the Thrawn novel trilogy by Timothy Zahn was being adapted. This will have to do.
I’m doubtful they’ll adapt novels, but I do hope they stay true to Zahn’s writing. The Empire loyalists try to bring back Thrawn, hoping it’ll bring back the Empire, but it just brings about the threat of a Chiss Ascendancy.
A Chiss Ascendency Ascendency?
We call it the Ascending Ascendant Ascendancy.
Has the actor playing Thrawn made an appearance yet? He looked really miscast in the previews, so wondering how his performance is.
[Spoilers]
Not yet.
Coming back to this thread to point out that my feelings definitely changed at Ahsoka Episode 5. I think my feelings toward the first 4 episodes will be even better because they lead to Episode 5.
