Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren don't want to work together, and they'll sigh their way across two galaxies because Dave Filoni thinks you still have a hard-Thrawn for the cartoons. All that and more on the least exciting Disney+ Star Wars concept since Grogu and Dust Bunnies on this week's Honest Trailer!

Ray Stevenson absolutely crushed this role. So sad he never got to see how well he was received by the fans. RIP
A lot of fans, including myself, were saying that Liev Schreiber should play him if they decide to bring the character back in future content and/or a Season 2.
@@carter_lovejoy100%
@@carter_lovejoythat's a perfect choice
did he? he had maybe 4 total sentences of mildly interesting dialogue that went fucking nowhere and meant nothing.
Punisher war zone!
Speaking of Sabine being inert, I love how they make “finding Ezra” her burning motivation to the point of risking the galaxy . . . and when she meets him, it has all the chemistry of “meeting a distant friend you haven’t seen in a few months.”
I thought the same thing... no one seems jacked to see anyone...
Their reunion was so underwhelming for someone she had been missing for 10 years. Same with Hera and Ezra. They cut before they could hug or anything.
Disney no bone zone.
"I'll risk everything to find him" Finds him... "Hey" "Sup".
It fits their characters.
The sigh sequence... amazing. Almost like Darth Vader.
so that's where Ahsoka gets it from
Darth Vader is a disabled person! How unsensitive. Are you an ableist, maybe? :DD
Ariana Greenblatt (young Ahsoka) was still the best portrayal of Ahsoka in the show, IMHO. Because of her dancing and acrobatic skills, her combat style was far better and more accurate, both to character and to an actual sword stance. She also gave feeling to the character. Emotion and depth.
Absolutely! Beyond the shadow of a doubt.
She also put emotion into the character, something Rosario Dawson lacked
You didn’t understand Ahsoka !!! Ahsoka after Rebels couldn’t accept anakins downfall in episode 5 Rosario showed how Ahsoka changed
@@kamalthefifth You didn’t understand Ahsoka !!! Ahsoka after Rebels couldn’t accept anakins downfall in episode 5 Rosario showed how Ahsoka changed
@ahsokatanofanboy8292 I think we did understand. It's just that often, the idea of a neutral based character gets confused with an emotionally stunted or locked mindset. It is hard for directors to allow portrayals of characters at war with themselves. This, I think is what should have been Ahsoka's challenge. Her inner fight, not light vs. Dark, but rather, could she overcome the resentment and hurt left behind by her masters betrayal. Instead, they went with the easy will she, won't she fall to the dark side like Anakin did. It was a choice.
"Cute droids" while showing Chopper. That's not one word I'd use to describe the war criminal
😂😂😂😂😂😂
They are so disconected...
Dude literally has a kill count above 50k 💀
Yeah, if droids could use the Force, I'm pretty sure Chopper would've overthrown the Emperor and started ruling the galaxy by the end of Rebels season 1.
Chopper is basically a cat. There is one meat sack he likes, everyone else he tolerates at best
Yoda voice: "judge me by my sighs, do you?" Honest Trailers: "yes"
Underrated comment.
"And well you should not." It's not a bad show. Not great, but better than Boba oder Kenobi.
This should have more likes
@Ramthul It *IS* a bad show though. It's actually horrifically terrible, in fact. Kenobi and Boba Fett are *obviously* terrible too, and probably *slightly* worse, but I don't see how you could notice the abysmal writing in those two shows and *not* in Ahsoka. Like, all three of these shows aren't getting above a 2/10. They are some of the worst stories any human has ever written. Sonic fan-fiction has a better flaw-per-paragraph-of-script ratio than these three shows.
i laughed at "charisma hole" like i get either she or someone told her to do that deliberately because she's a jedi but my gosh mandalorian shows more expression behind a helmet then ahsoka does the entire show
People said the same thing about Kenobi and Boba Fett. If all you see is nails, you're a hammer. In other words, you're just looking for faults at that point if NO show (except Andor, of course!) is good enough.
Wow, couldn't disagree more. The Mandalorian is -- IMHO -- so unfocused and meh, and the whole Bucket Klingons culture is soooooo boring. The fact that they all kind of just drone on when speaking, and we can't see their faces, is so not my jam. But to each their own, not everyone is going to like a particular show.
@@MrsCrimsonQueen I meant the main character Mando not all of them
@@MrBrock314well maybe we wanted good star wars shows and all we get is garbage. You don't have to look for faults. They're so big and many, one simply can't overlook them. And people that praise this garbage are helping to lower the general quality. All it needs is a little cameo and the god awfull writing is forgotten. Truely sad times.
I feel like a lot of modern mainstream media are so afraid of showing genuine emotions that almost everyone is acting like alternative universe RDJ
When it all comes down to it, it could have just made another animated season of Rebels, told basically the same story, and ended up with all the characters. Having a great deal more charisma
In Clone Wars or Rebels this story would have been told in three episodes.
@@Flinsenberger101so then we would have had more thrawn?
@@theancestor2040 I don't get it. Just think that this was so slow and overstretched, like a chewing gum that has a only a slight hint of sweetness in it. Mainly it was chewing for hope of finding that last pocket of taste that you know was there a while ago.
@@Flinsenberger101Man that really sums up my feelings of this show
Whoever came up with “Twi’lek: Breaking Thrawn” deserves a raise. 😂
lol, yes wtf came up with this?
R2 deeznuts,killed me😂
The only funny thing about this video 😂
For thrawn, it should have been, "Thrawn: Legacy"
@@jeremylambden2284I had an asthma attack from laughing so hard at it
I honestly love seeing Hayden Christensen playing Anakin again, his skills with a lightsaber is the best amongst Star Wars actors.
he ran rings around Ahsoka... it really is to bad that either the cast couldn't hack the choreo or the director/team didn't trust or get the time to practice it. Made every fight painful to watch.
@@FiddlerForestPainful is the prequel fight scenes.
@@cm9241 sure they seem more choreographed but what the hell are you talking about being painful? That Darth maul fight, anakin vs Obi fight. Dude, the actors were decently skilled with the saber wielding. Rosario was evidently slow moving compared to Hayden. Either she couldn't hack it or the director/team filmed it poorly.
I CLAPPED WHEN I SAW THE RED LIGHTSABER TOO
He is beast physically and should portray Vader anytime he can BUT BY GOD do not make him talk. Man never got acting skills and he is riding the sympathies of the fans
I was expecting an arm crossing montage, but i wasn't expecting a sigh montage. Expertly done.
I completely lost it at "GRAND SMURF TARKIN". That was gold, and it's all I will be calling him from now on.
Aside from Hayden just flat out being leaps and bounds better at swinging a lightsaber than any of the other cast, I really enjoyed Baylan's fight style. It looked like one that came with age and wisdom. He used minimal effort to achieve maximum effect. His moves were straightforward, and he could overpower his opponent when he needed to. It seemed much more real than the dumb flourishes that the rest of the cast was doing against opponents that literally had to chance against them. Also, during the whole Ahsoka vs. Morgan fight, the Stormtroopers surround them, and my first thought was, "Shoot them in the back." I don't care if Thrawn achieved his main objective by stalling them long enough to escape. He had an enemy and a disposable pawn surrounded with troops. They could have easily taken out both of them with just the sheer numbers.
Yeah but they are heroes, so even without beskar, literal plot armour. It is why when you had Ezra, Sabine and Ahsoka vs 40 troopers they didn't just all shoot at once and win. Because have to do zombies which are also useless.
When Ahsoka swings her lightsaber, it looks like she's heaving a 30 pound weight around
Yeah, Storm Troopers are very polite people, attacking just one at a time.
@@1mat234 because she does with the make up
I also found it amusing that young ahsoka from the flashback/dream sequence was a way better fighter than old ahsoka. Yes, a bit unrefined, but that's appropriate considering that she is supposed to be younger and thus less experienced and with less training.
Impressive how Baylan Skoll was more enthusiatsic and interesting than the actual main character the show's named after. RIP Ray Stevenson, we're gonna miss him, such a great actor and a great villain with so much potential.
One of the most intriguing Disney Star Wars characters, right up there with Luthen Rael and Crosshair
Ahsoka is everything a Jedi should be. Loved her character and portrayal. Not to say that Baylan wasn't great, either.
He was so interesting, he had this real knightly aura around him, like he came out of Game of Thrones, not Star Wars. He was so morally ambiguous in such an intriguing way
@@jamielondon6436simpy boy
Ahsoka in the animated series was a lot more expressive. I was quite disappointed how she was so wooden in this show. Jedi masters are supposed to be emotionless but no one really wants that. Emotionless is boring.
Ahsoka is definitely a series that exists.
Not for much longer, I am thinking.
Yep like Obi-Wan, Bobby Fett
It totally exists! One of the most existent shows!
Sadly, that is enough offense already, given how horrible it was from the writing standpoint.
…unfortunately.
The sighing was timed so well, it just sounded like one person's rhythmic breathing. Kudos to the editor!
Calling Darth Bangs "his little Sithster" was just hilarious.
The best part was the small amount of time spent with letting Hayden bring out his fantastic lightsaber skills
Exactly why I hope they don't make any live action stuff taking place during the Old Republic or prequel era. Unless they match the intensity of the prequel lightsaber dueling, it's gonna suck.
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.104 i admire the dedication to the joke
And truth be told, that only highlighted just how bad/slow Dawson was during the lightsaber fights....
For real, the moment Hayden started swinging you realize just how much more skilled him and Ewan are compared to the newer Disney era people. To be fair, I actually liked most of the saber choreography in Ahsoka.
Watch how much he has to carry the choreography. Perfect representation of new Disney star wars
Another thing I find extremely funny is the fact that Hera's son, who should be an eldritch abomination that looks both like a human and a Twi'lek, is just a pretty normal kid with green hair. Cartoon logic at it's finest
It all depends on how the genes fall. Bi-racial kids sometimes look nothing like one parent.
They did show the kid at the end of Rebels, and he had lekku.
Who can sigh more? It’s no contest. It’s me when watching Ahsoka.
The sigh fest bit was awesome
Yeah, expanding on the coworkers riff, I’ve had more than a few meetings at work that sounded exactly like that sigh fest.
Agreed
After a while it made me sigh too...
The inhabilty of Disney to make a good series has made me sigh many times.
They missed out on making a joke about the "Light Sighed versus the Dark Sighed."
This show was the equivalent of increasing the font size/line spacing on your term paper just to turn something in.
So... every Disney Star Wars show except Andor.
@@ArchibaldClumpy Gina Carano has the last laugh. She's lucky she's not attached to this trainwreck of an IP.
Mandalorian was an essay that was good for two paragraphs but completely fuckrd up the rest.
This is so accurate.
The task is 10p. minimum and the text is like half page in TNR 12))) To add to the metaphor - it's also Calibri cursive pink colour.
This is so funny, and its not Anikin's fault he went evil, what kind of a Jedi order lets a 9 year old hang out with a creepy old man with Sith artifacts all over his office anyways😅
Honestly, having Palpatine be a Sith lord is almost the preferable explanation for an old guy's interest in a pretty young boy with no family. I mean, Anakin totally would have ended up Dark Side either way, but this is less icky.
Also, why would they be surprised Anakin switched teams? Mace especially treated him badly and Anakin was emotionally unstable due to the trauma of his upbringing.
Season 7 of Clone Wars had the excitement of characters reuniting I'd expect from everyone in the Ahsoka show.
that "sithter" joke really caught me offguard 🤣
3:55 how nice of the stormtrooper to turn around and start jumping off the stairs even before Ahsoka did anything. 👍🏻
yeah, I get not having actors actually make contact, sure, but can you at least edit it to HIDE that? That part wasn't even bad acting, it was ---- editing.
This whole show reeks of "one take" filming, with the director saying "meh, good enough".
use the force
Lol, I didn’t notice that. Nice catch 😂
You mean the guy that Ezra pulled in that direction that Ahsoka took advantage of being off balance? God you guys can't even look at what is right in front of you on screen.
"Ok, ONE new idea". Good to see critics of Star Wars are still willing to give credit to Andor.
Watching Asoka reminded me just how good Andor really is.
Baylan Skoll was an amazing new character and I hope they’ll manage to save his storyline in the next season despite Ray Stevenson’s passing.
I would like to see his younger self and how he became disillusioned with the Jedi way.
Nah, recasting him would be a huge disservice.
@@MICHAEL-vy3ch Now that is a great idea.
@@thatoneguy2136 I think it would be a huge disservice to leave his story on a literal cliffhanger. It would be rough at first, knowing that someone else would be filling his immortal shoes, but I don't enjoy unresolved storylines regardless of the passing of an actor. And I refuse to watch him be replaced by A.I. CGI bs.
gotta recast the only good part of this show was the character, so some actor out there can do justice to stevenson's portrayal.
4:03 Yeah, Nightsisters. They’ve been around since Clone Wars & their magic is basically an aspect of the Force that both the Jedi & Sith won’t touch.
Longer than that, they were in legends too: The courtship of Princess Leia, 1997 I think
And for some reason people are shocked by their existence and acting like it’s all out of the blue
@@72GuymanAnd they were freaking terrifying in the book. To the point where the Empire wanted to kill the planet to make sure they didn't leave.
@@72Guyman Charal from Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985) was a Dathomiri Nightsister.
@@justlivin2499 It's almost like not everyone follows every single piece of Starwars media that is released.
"Beards don't grow in space" being a reference from The State?! Wow, that was fantastic. More!
THE BEARDED MEN! of Space Station 11!
Sabine Wren was a trained Mandalorian versed in basic Mando combat, an explosives expert, an expert marksman, a super talented engineer that no one could copy, a talented repair technician that is able to repair anything like ship engines and weapons, is able to defeat Clone Wars veteran Mandalorian soldiers like Gar Saxon in 1v1 combat, attended in the Imperial Academy, was a fantastic Tie fighter pilot, designed a super weapon (without any help) that baffles other Imperial/Rebel/Mandalorian Engineers, was a famous Bounty Hunter throughout the Galaxy and had other Bounty Hunters owe her favors, is able to wield a lightsaber without the force and fight Jedi 1v1, comes from a famous Mandalorian family (which is basically Royalty) and was a well known Galactic Artist because of her famous art......all before the age of 14 years old! And now she's a Jedi and Force sensitive. Even surviving getting stabbed by a Lightsaber. 😂
And people used to (probably still) complain that Rey was a Mary Sue...
That last part is the most impressive.. she should have exploded from the heat.
@@umjackd Rey in Sw7 wasn't really. Later though jumped the shark hard.
She wasn’t trained in rebels????
@@nichenetwork9817 "She" you mean Sabine? Sabine was a Mandalorian bounty-hunter, not a Jedi. not until Ahsoka did she even have the ability to use the Force at all. So no, Sabine had NO training in the Force.
Please say (in your best Oprah voice): “You have the Force! You have the Force and you have the Force! Everybody has the Force!”
One person finds the Force in this show lol
I really liked the performance of young Ahsoka.
I was kinda sad when she was included in the bad dialogue scene lol, I thought she did a good job. Also she had the better lightsaber moves.
Wasn’t she little Gamora too?
She felt more like Ahsoka than Rosario Dawson. There's something off with Rosario's portrayal of Ahsoka and I can't pinpoint exactly what it is.
I can help: Rosario Dawson just felt like she didn't want to be here. She seemed bored and miserable, even when Ahsoka was supposed to lighten up. It could just be Dave Filoni's flat directing since other actors outside of Eman Estafani and Ray Stevenson felt off but something about the whole thing just felt cold and lifeless. A far cry from the lively nature of Clone Wars and Rebels. @@TomCruz54321
Yep! She was also in 65 with Adam Driver AND Barbie this year@@justinp7034
One size fits all pants is how they can afford to take over the galaxy.
"He is a Jedi" "ok"
I didn’t realize how funny that scene with the jedi droid and pilot was when taken out of context. I haven’t audibly cracked up while watching something on youtube in a while, thank you for that. They way the pilot shrugs and is like “well, okay..” - priceless 😂
Captain Carson Teva is awesome, just a working class dude with a low tolerance for bs.
Its so nice seeing Hayden Christian getting work again.
In pure CGI that looked awful
I feel like after the seeing this review, the level of enjoyment in this show is definitely added by the backstory of Rebels. If you havent seen rebels, worth a watch. Also makes Ahsoka (Rebels season 5) sooo much better
For me it's the other way around. Having seen Rebels before this show was even in the beginning stages of production, I feel like no characters from Rebels is adequately represented on Ahsoka, despite Filoni being in charge. Rebels is SO much better than this mediocre cashgrab. Well, but mediocre cashgrab is an upwards trend considering the quality of live action Star Wars releases in the last 10 years.
"2 ex co-workers on a road trip" 😂
The sigh montage was on point
The sigh montage was how I felt watching Andor haha. THIS is pure Star Wars content to me, with cameos, humor, and cool fights! More action and humor to actually keep you invested instead of looking at your phone waiting for someone to stop talking and waiting for a cameo or fight or joke 😅
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395oooooof. Bad take
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 Behold, the TikTok generation.
If i had a penny for everytime Ahsoka crossed her arms in this show, I’d be a millionaire.
if she crossed her arms a million time, that is. which is highly unlikely.
Or shots in which Shin Hati doesn't blink a single time.
@@veranjag100 million times. 100 million Pennies to a million dollars
@@Joseph-- But it's weird that it happened that often.
Didnt she always do that in the animated shows?
this is literally the best critique. the best actor in the whole show was the girl who played young Asoka.
Probably because she is the only actor that shows actual emotion on set. Everyone else sounds either bored or snarky
The best fighter? Absolutely yes. The best actor? No. That's Ray Stevenson.
That sigh montage was pure genius.
Gonna supernerd here, but the baggy pants Thrawn was wearing was likely intentional. Look at portrayals of Grand Moff Tarkin, lore wise-the baggy pants style was popular with imperial officers (mostly because of Tarkin), then became more form-fitting after he died. Thrawn disappeared before Tarkin's death, so his uniforms are still in that style.
Yes, those pants are called jodhpurs, they are English riding breeches
glad I'm not the only supernerd here because I was thinking the same thing!! the breeches look was in circa 0BBY!! and one of the novels literally opens with him approving a new uniform lol
Yikes 😬
@@Goro_Maj1ma don't you have a Kiryu to annoy? :p
Also very popular with the Nazis, which are the obvious comparison to the Empire.
I'd say Talsin's sword would obviously scale with charisma. That's a warlock sword if I ever saw one. No other notes
Could also be a Blood Hunter or Death Domain Cleric's sword.
bladelock could make it work regardless... but for sure thematically
Makes sense to be a Warlock sword, Pact of The Blade would negate STR or DEX deficiency by making the wielder proficient in said weapon.
Would a Witch be a Sorcerer or a Warlock?
@@phatdogI would argue it's a trick question: she started Sorcerer and dipped at least a level in Hexblade Warlock.
I snortled at "Grand Smurf Tarkin"
4:50 they don’t deage Hayden and you complain. They deage Hayden and you complain
Glad to see I'm not the only one more interested by the villains/henchfolks than our actual heroes in this show.
Kind of the tradition with SW. Starting with Tarkin, Vader, the Emperor and especially Boba Fett. Continuing with Maul, Jango, Grevious and Dooku. Then the TCW made Ventress, Cad Bane and Hondo (Although not really a villain or working for them, neither is he really part of the protagonists, he's a bit grey) and remade Maul (making him even more interesting). Rebels introduced Kallus (although he does turn to good, he becomes a side character, but popular because of the turn), Thrawn and the Inquisitors. Even the sequels had Phasma, Snoke and Kylo plus The Knights of Ren, before they mostly ruined all of them.
When you have a show where you're FAR more interested in the villains because of how intriguing their characters are rather than the actual heroes then you know something's up.
More often than not the villains are far more interesting than the heroes but in Star Wars the point gets hammered home. Theyre either boring and lame or cuddly Muppets... ugh. Except for Mando seasons 1 and 2 imo. But yeah,Jedi suuuuuuuuuck.
Sign of a bad show.
Only Baylan was interesting. The rest was bland to boring.
Gotta say, Hera's lekku were WAY more hilariously wiggly wobbly. I think Mary Elizabeth Winstead was stuck standing stock still and not allowed to turn her head. I love Ahsoka, and I love you nerds for being able to mock so beautifully.
I'm a big fan of the legacy of The Clone Wars and Rebels that this show is building on, so im excited to see where it goes, but my well of good will for Star Wars is running too dry for them to be putting out shows that move this damn slowly that aren't awesome on their own! Hopefully in a couple years I'll still care enough to find out if it's worth the wait?
3:20 No, that's Space Moses.
I still cant get believe how the cartoon shows are still better than the live action shows🤦🏽♂️
They are. By far. So much love and passion was put into those shows. And you can tell there weren't any meddling hands interfering with everything. They just let them do their thing, and that's why they turned out so good.
Ahsoka isn't great, but compared to Rebels is absolute garbage.
Because they're easier to make. Cheaper to produce and you can literally animate a character to do anything. Screen Junkies makes a good point in this video, we don't see Ahsoka moving very fast because her headpiece might fall off lol
They do have the advantage of being longer. Star Wars Clone Wars was 133 episodes. The first couple seasons were 22 episodes each. Was EVERY episode amazing? No, but having longer seasons allows for more character development to happen slowly over time. These Disney streaming shows are just too short. Ahsoka was 8 episodes, Book of Boba Fett was 7 and Obi Wan was only 6 episodes long. They just don't have enough time to make a compelling show with so few episodes that all have inconsistent episode lengths
Extremely……and that was my repeating thought throughout the series…should’ve stayed animated
This was very funny, laughing most of it, but the Watto hitting him with a shoe line had me roaring. 😂😂😂😂
Most accurate honest trailer I have ever seen. Sadly.
All the sighs had me on the floor.
*Lmfaoooo…..ikr* 😭😭😭
They did the sithster joke. They could have followed it up with a sighster joke too. The Master and the student become sighsters.
The sigh montage was how I felt watching Andor haha. THIS is pure Star Wars content to me, with cameos, humor, and cool fights! More action and humor to actually keep you invested instead of looking at your phone waiting for someone to stop talking and waiting for a cameo or fight or joke 😅
📌Obi-Wan and Ahsoka feel like movies that were stretched out to be 8 episodes. Very little plot happens in each episode. The episodes don't have a distinct identity to them and some episodes blur together. Compare this to The Expanse or Battlestar Galactica, you just mention "Bastille Day" and I immediately know what episode you're talking about. Episodes of Ahsoka feel like a collection of scenes from a chopped up movie.
Amén brother.
I don't think The Expanse can be compared to any of these shows
The fan edit of Obi Wan into a movie is so good! It made me realize I didn’t hate the show, but hate how diluted it was.
They literally were supposed to be movies originally.
If you've ever seen the original theatrical release of Clone Wars they mention in the video then it's kind of poetic. That garbage was just 3 episodes of a TV series smashed together to make a movie.
That was perfect! Loved the metaphor at the end
The best part of this is the reference to The State sketch "The Bearded Men of Space Station 11"
"... but I have a beard!"
I thought Ahsoka was ok...but it felt like 25% of a much larger season given the filler to actual plot progression across the episodes. Also needed more Chopper committing at least one major war crime....
If it weren't for that asshole Senator being Kaz's father in Star Wars Resistance, Chopper's crime would have been bombing his house.
I really want a season 2 just because I can feel it would juat be all the cool stuff I really enjoyed finally coming to prominence.
I was dissapointed Chopper didn't try to throw Ezra off the bridge. Or at least electrocutate him a bit.

There is still an unreleased movie in which he appears.
Wow, he really went out with a whimper
Pretty shocked to find out Baylan’s actor was already dead before the first episode even aired. Who could possibly fill his shoes in the next season?

"Grand Smurf Tarkin" will never not be funny!
Well, I think we can agree that Baylan was the best of the show- annnd, he’s gone. R.I.P Ray Stevenson.
Screen Junkies would probably appreciate the show alot more if they just did a CLONE WARS SERIES HONEST TRAILER ALREADY!!!
We’ve crossed the 15th anniversary mark people. Make this Honest TV Trailer happen!
Eh, I've seen clone wars starts to finish along with rebels at least 9 times thanks to my kids and it didn't make this show any better. 😀
i’ve been saying that for years lol
I've watched Clone Wars and Rebels over a dozen times... It has most definitively made Ahsoka *MUCH* worse. The character-assassinations are infuriating. I've not genuinely *hated* a tv show more than 5 times in my life, and this one sky-rocketed to 2nd place. The more you know about these characters, the more you hate what this show did to them.
Character assassinations? Where? I didn't see anyone in this show drinking alien tiddy milk like a certain legacy character we know.@@eidolon1426
"slightly more dangerous than butter" 😂😂😂
I really thought that there would’ve been a reference to all the cake on this show. What could’ve been realized 😂
I would give 10 thumbs up just for all the undeniably positive references to Andor. You know why Ryan George, Pitch Meetings, and CinemaSins haven't done an Andor series reaction? Because it's got great and well written dialogue, acting, cinematography, etc. It's also a bloody outrage that it didn't get any Acting Noms, including Andy Serkis for Best Guest Actor, though did get a Best Drama Series nomination at Emmys.
I don't get the hype for Andor because it was just so boring to me and I much prefer Mandalorian and Boba Fett and others with fights, humor, and cameos! Andor is just so slow and boring and doesn't even feel like Star Wars in my opinion because they just talk the whole time and not even with jokes in between.

@@dwell7315 Ah, the self centred arrogance of youth. I remember a time when Star Wars was for everyone and not just an in club of weebos that grew up obsessed with the prequels. I know who Ahsoka is, I just don't know the details of her story...do we need to do homework now?
@@adriandenton6637 Then the show wasn't for you. Disney would like to pretend you can jump in but it's not really true. :) It wasn't true in the prequels either.
@@MrBrock314 ? Of course you can jump into the Phantom Menace, it was made for children, what a bizarre idea. Enjoy your 'little' weebo club up Daves arse then haha Sorry but it's not enough people for Star Wars to flourish..
Rest in peace, Ray Stevenson.
So there are space whales and a puzzle ball that shows a space map. Is Ahsoka just Treasure Planet with lightsabers!?
3:48 Slightly less dangerous than butter🤣🤣🤣🤣
Okay but can we at least agree that while the show had its faults, the cinematography was absolutely GORGEOUS?? It especially started on like, episode 4 I think? And the composer did a wonderful job, I loved their use of the pipe organ and different flutes. It all sounded so unique, like things I haven't heard in a Star Wars property before.
Yes, the effect and cinematography of the ships+planets were great. The only good thing. It was beautiful sometimes. But whoever directed it, had no idea how to direct actors. That part was awful.
That's always the default when shows and movies fail. Avatar was boring, the Rings of Power was a flop, but at least they looked good.
"I hope ghost Wato beats him with a shoe" 🤣🤣🤣
OTOH. Ahsoka has been extremely popular amongst Star Wars fans. Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati in particular are getting a lot of love.
Based on the tone of past Honest Trailer reactions to the various Star Wars series, it sounds like this one might be pretty good!
'surprisingly clean now' legit made me fall out my chair , and then Grand Smurf Tarkin did it again . thank you.
To be fair, they set up some ideas and concepts in this series that could change SW to be more diverse. Bringing back the Witches/magic, other galaxies, the secrets of the force, etc.
3:37- Live-action Thrawn and his live-action Dad-gut. Busted my side laughing so hard! 😂
The sighing part was unexpectedly funny 🤣
Anakin’s dialogue was his best yet which is saying something in a show filled with prequel dialogue.
I give hayden props, he may not be a spectacular actor, but with a decent director, and less hideous dialog, he really does a good job. Imagine what the prequels could have been.
The prequel dialogue is much more memorable and emotional in my opinion. There's all the popular memes that helps to remember, but also the emotion Hayden and others deliver, like "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!'
Prequel dialogue is fucking iconic, but you guys are not ready for this conversation yet
I loved the show, I enjoyed every episode... And this is a thorough and valid roasting that has my approval! 😂😂😂
No mention of Sabine easily recovering from a lightsaber through her chest...then in the hospital they show the wound is on her hip.
It wasn't in her chest. It was through the right abdominal side. You can see that in the first episode. The only reason she survived is because Ahsoka's ship was right on top of her and they could get her medical care.
That George Lucas clip at the end is the gift that keeps on giving with the franchise. Also, Punisher: Star War Zone is one of my favorite HT character titles in a while! Nailed it!
I’d say it’s way overused. Star Wars haters need to come up with some new material.
I clapped, I clapped when I saw it
Not a fan of Sabine becoming force sensitive. I mean really she was already a genius badass Mandalorian/Rebel. Her getting a lightsaber and force powers (which she mastered way to fast) makes her just OP.
But, don't you understand, now "ANYONE" can be a Jedi. All you have to do is click your heels, gaze at the stars, and "believe."
It's okay, they balance her by taking away her personality.
Sabine for sure didn't deserve it with her actions. Literally everything she did in this show was pure selfishness. She freed a notorious war criminal just to maybe see her friend who could be dead... What a hero
@tmb1065 but what about midichlorians? What if you don't have enough of them?
Honestly that was dumb, in Rebels Kanaan taught Sabine with the help of Ezra to use the Dark Saber but yeah she never once had an affinity for the force.
Honest Trailers; another well-done trailer worthy of some of the best you've ever done! Even with shows, like Ahsoka, that I loved and enjoyed, you've managed to make me laugh out loud at by myself! 😂
2:35 none of them sighed more than me listening to that
"The perfect metaphor for Disney's Star Wars." So true, made my day! Thank you, for that!
I didn't know it was possible to be bored by characters you're literally only letting talk for a few seconds. And with the budgets these people have, could they seriously not hired a fencing teacher or something? The fight choreography was... I'm at a loss. Can you guys please do Seasons 2 and 3 of the Boys?
This show generally had better choreography than much of the recent Star Wars fare. There were definitely moments that were subpar but most of it was decent to good.
Star Wars with witches, magic, zombies and supernatural space whales. What a time to be on acid.
I've been watching honest trailers since pretty much the very beginning and I've never laughed louder and longer than during the sigh-segment. Give that writer a raise! (But tbh, part of why I laughed so intensely was because I hadn't even noticed the amount of sighing, while I noticed all the other stuff)
I was actually curious about rebels before watching this show. Now I'm curious about the purpose of life.
Chopper would absolutely impale you for calling him cute..😂
