CoGro wrote:Now for half of next week's episode we're going to get a cliched mock trial where the dialogue is going to be a bit of a rehash of what took place during the second part of the arc. I hope I'm wrong, but it seems the conclusion will be predictable:
Anakin will find out who was behind the plot with the help of Ventress while Ahsoka sits in court defending herself. At the very last minute, before the hammer comes down on Ahsoka there will be a climax that reveals the true traitor.
CoGro wrote:Just saw it. It happened exactly as I predicted it would last week.
Cryostar wrote:I'm pondering, since they're getting close to the begining of ROTS, that they're using this to pull us away from the Anakin/Obi story (and not step on continuity) and give us an option to live on with Ashoka and Assajj. If they pull that way, we could have several more successful seasons.
Mike_Droideka wrote:An excellent season finalé. The final moments were absolute perfection.
My only nitpick was Tim Curry's Palpatine - the guy is absolutely terrible and should be removed from the show.
What on earth were they thinking?!

JWFan wrote:Are we to assume that if Ahsoka had rejoined the order she would have attained the level of Jedi Knight?
JWFan wrote:I know that Anakin was handing her back her "braid" but it felt more symbolic of him giving back her Jedi-ism than her becoming his padawan again.
JWFan wrote:Also, Ki-Adi Mundi did say that her actions displayed the qualities that a Jedi Knight needed to have and Mace said she passed her great trial.
Alexrd wrote:P.S: Why no Luminara? I would love to see her reaction.

CommanderBly wrote:I dunno. I find other things that should be resolved too such as:
Rex: The series was not planned during the development and filming of RotS, but Anakin can simply say that Rex was transferred to Kamino to be a training instructor or he is off fighting the Separatists with his detachment unit from the 501st.
Bo Katan & Mandalore: A civil war was going on when we last left off on. It would be nice to see the outcome. What if Bo Katan became the new Duchess?
Boba Fett: Hondo has the Slave 1 and Boba got captured and tricked by Assajj at the end of that one episode.
Zillo Beast: Palpatine ordered it to be cloned, soooo what is after that?

Further the whole thing feels like a cheat to a) get Asohka past Order 66 so she can be around for future use and b) do it in a way that is a total cop-out 'reset button' for her. Think about it, she's essentially back to where we met her - a blank that future writers can impose anything on. Maybe she stayed out and is in the moral grey area now, maybe she returned to the order and we just never saw that; it's reads to me as a cheap way to make a popular character available again for future marketing opportunities, whatever those might be.
Anyways, the thing just fell flat for me, coupled with some frustration. Oh, and Padme? Reeee-heh-heh-he-heeeealy? What, was Filoni thinking the same thing I was: "where the hell has Padme been for the past several seasons? Isn't Anakin's marriage at all important to him? Isn't this why he turns in the end? Don't we need to know what she's been up to?"? Regardless, PADME is your defense attorney? Isn't that like having Pamela Wallin defend you at your murder/treason trial? Just WTF?!
Oh, and Tim Curry was appallingly awful - just dreadful.

E_CHU_TA! wrote:The series has a "love-ignore" relationship with the EU. As I said earlier, Filoni actively tries to incorporate EU concepts into the show. But, when George or script elements require a divergence for dramatic purposes, the EU gets trumped.
E_CHU_TA! wrote:Other outstanding areas include the matter of a new clone template and a resolution on Mother Talzin’s final plan.
What’s been discussed regarding future (and possibly completed) episodes includes the two Clovis shows, a revelation of how much Obi-wan knows about Anakin and Padme, a Boba and Cad Bane team-up story, James Arnold Taylor and a guest voice actor appearing in an episode, an arch that explains Dooku’s motivations, a return to the Force concepts discussed in the Mortis arch, an episode featuring Fives, and possibly the return of Echo.
Filoni is the same guy who didn't like the concept of Sith coming back as ghosts, but wanted to include Mandalorian Crusader art and yellow lightsaber blades. Lucas isn't the only one on the team who picks and chooses between EU stuff.Alexrd wrote:I actually didn't like that. Specially because Filoni did it with a "let's hope he [Lucas] won't notice or give a damn." way of thinking.
IGN: There are so many questions, obviously, about the future of the show, but back last summer at Celebration, you talked about work being done on Season 6. We know that there are completed episodes that we haven’t seen. Might we get an announcement one way or the other about when and where we’ll be seeing that, any time soon?
Filoni: [Laughs] Well, that’s the interesting part, this wait-and-see thing, I know, for fans. But there are more stories to tell, and as I’ve said, we’ve been working on them for awhile. I’ll be excited when we can share more details with you about that, but at this point, there isn’t really much I can say. Unfortunately, that’s all I can say. Sadly, for you guys. [Laughs] I see cool stuff every day… it’s totally unfair!
IGN: That’s very encouraging, because there are some more extreme rumors saying, “The show is over!” But I kept thinking, “But they’ve been making episodes, so that can’t be the case!”
Filoni: Right? Always in motion is the future. This is where I can be very vague and quizzical. [Laughs]

I actually didn't like that. Specially because Filoni did it with a "let's hope he [Lucas] won't notice or give a damn." way of thinking.
