Not a bad episode at all! I loved the introduction of the ARC-170 fighters and seeing Commander Ponds again. The opening battle was impressive because of how large the scale was since we are so used to see small to medium skirmishes in past episodes. The Zillo Beast was pretty cool and I like how they made it menacing by making its skin resistant to a blade of a lightsaber.

That was my favourite episode as well. The battle at the beginning was really epic but the best part for me was the beast itself. The scenes when it's shown entirely (the lighting in that one) and near the end when the tanks "kill" it (the beams and lighting also) were just killer. It was also nice to see some new environments and characters/ships as well.

This episode had all sorts of little details that I loved. The shots with the ARC fighters and bombers had a ANH battle vibe to them and the sound effects were great. I really liked the camera work during the monster sequences, they really showed off the scale of the beast. The final sequence definitely seemed like it might have been an homage to a Godzilla flick especially with those tanks that shoot the continuous laser beams.

As an old M*A*S*H fan I also appreciated the reference to Hawkeye and Trapper.

Thanks for the files!

And this episode was definitely a lot of fun. Great atmosphere, action and even some depth to the story (WMD, respect for life, etc.). Good stuff.

Now that you said it, the Malastare's leader looked like a Godzilla (the Dugs look like them a bit anyway).

Loved the mythological motif used in this episode.
The valiant young Knight (Anakin) up against the Dragon (Zillo) in the pit, armed only with his sword!
