Can't wait to see Ahsoka and Sabine's stories continue. 2 of the best characters from each series is bound to be interesting.

Ahsoka>Rey
DickMercenary
Basically anyone is better than Rey. Hell the Tusken Raider that snipes pod racers was a better character.
RyeBreadsBakery

Weird, it's almost like a character with an actual story arc inspires empathy in a fanbase
LadyRex
I can't effing wait. This was such amazing news and I am so excited to see my clones bois for another season!
KevinRPD
Rey is boring as hell.
mynamPlanetGod
Are you saying that a boring Mary Sue is less liked than a well written character??
MrRandom314159
To be fair, It's hard to cram as much character development AND character growth into 2 movies as 7 seasons of a show BUT Rey's character is
MrRandom314159
sorely underdeveloped in her first movie. And only gets some okay-ish development, and some decent growth in the second.
InameAsOne
I started off hating Ahsoka. Wasn't 'canon', was annoying, all that. By the end of the S6, she was my favorite of them all.
Aliragal
Hard not to be excited. Filoni gets the finale he palnnrd, and we get the Siege of Mandalore. Cannot wait!
derptoad
I want the quinlan vos and vintress story line.
SayWhatYouMeanMeanWhatYouSay
Honestly I don’t think they could tell it in series any better than the book did. The novel gave us detail the show wouldn’t have the >>

time to provide.
HatredandVitriol
Lucas wrote and rewrote the original for the sole purpose of selling the script for cash. TV series were written by people in love with it.
HatredandVitriol
TV series is more coherent and heartfelt than any of the movies.
FilthyEarther
Ahsoka isn’t treated like a female power figure like Rey was. Ahsoka doesn’t constantly point out sexism like they tried with Rey! Pt-1
FilthyEarther
Ahsoka is related in a multitude of levels unlike Rey. Rey was a shallow character partly cuz of multi-directors. I really wanted 2 like Rey
rawbske
I feel audience are burnt out on Star Wars and episode 9 is going to lose money. They spend to much money making them and China hates them.
somepoorjerk
I don’t think so. The hype for the clone wars series getting more seasons proved that false. The audience is burnt out on the “agenda”
uvolu
I wouldn't even care about the politics if it had was used as a device to move the plot and build character
somepoorjerk
I agree with you. I just hate what they are doing. Zero depth, zero progression as a character makes for a boring movie.
FelixG
They aren't burnt out on Star Wars, they are burnt out on BAD Star Wars.
TheRealBigChungus
Ahsoka is and always will be a better character than Rey. Change my mind.
Slagurth
Watched the first several episodes of clone wars season 1 and couldn’t get over how awful the writing was. Does it get dramatically better?
EmporerDragon
Yes. It gets much better. Great example showing how much it improves is the 1st season's finale "Hostage Crisis" which introduces Cad Bane.
ImperialNeptune
It sure does! Season 1 and kind of 2 are a bit of a slog, but when you get to about 3 it really starts to pick up.
tombrazelton
You know why fans like Ashoka? She’s principled.

Yup. I'd like to bang Ahsoka instead. Really, any Twi'ilek girl.

She's not a Twi'lek you specist.

Ahsoka is a Togruta, not a Twi'lek.

There would be zero chance Jesus would force fondle my balls while in cowgirl. Ahsoka might give me a 1% if I volunteered in the wars.

Oh yeah. Still fucking would, though

Isn't she like twelve tho?
IVerifyPeoplesUsernames
She's 14 in the movie and Season 1 to 3 and 16-ish in 4. Presumably she's 17 or 18 when Season 7 comes out.

Wheres true at? We gonna get there soon?
bdking1997
Am i the only one who thinks that Rey would be much better as a villian and Kylo Ren would be much better as a hero?
bdking1997
The only way episode 9 can work is if Rey and Kylo switch sides.
barnwolf
They did sort of hint at that in episode 8.
barnwolf
Actually in hindsight I wonder if Rey was a pacifist in 7 because she knows she has a dark side and is afraid to feed it.
Ryanator50
hey, how come none of the heroes with lines (Aside from the exposition goblins) are non human? woulda been easy for rey or poe to be Togruta
Lambdafish1
But I thought star wars nerds are sexist and hate women, that's what I keep being told
somepoorjerk
Right? On imgur I’ve seen the “SW fan base is toxic” crap because of hate on Rey, as if zero character development had nothing to do with it
JudgementalMan
I hate the new movies but there sure is a lot of sexism surrounding some critics. Yes it had lots of problems, women was not one of them.
SecondWind90
Hasn't Kathleen Kennedy been firerd yet?
Lambdafish1
Women was not, Rey as a character was.
DoublevBomb
I thought that was why so many people hated the recent movie, and went apeshit about Rose and having the thing remade immediately.
EmporerDragon
No. It was a bad movie that had female leads; It wasn't a bad movie because of the female leads.
DoublevBomb
I don't know why people would expect quality, beyond dollars spent, from a Star Wars movie.
surprisemotherfuckers
Holdo and Rose were written horribly though, well acted but written horribly. Its not their fault, its Rian Johnson
Lambdafish1
And Kathleen Kennedy*
surprisemotherfuckers
absolutely
Shadoweclipse13
Not even close. Generally speaking, most of us nerds are WAY more accepting of most things than a lot of people. If you're referring...
Shadoweclipse13
/2 to some of the dickheads who talk shit to Kelly Marie Tran and Daisy Ridley, those are douchebags who claim to be nerds.
Lambdafish1
I was being sarcastic lol, of course we aren't sexist for hating a the way a character is written
Shadoweclipse13
So glad :-) As a massive SW fan, and someone who loves independent and intelligent women, that would've sucked if that's how we were seen.
Lambdafish1
It's how Disney sees us unfortunately
Shadoweclipse13
Maybe, but I'm not worried about how a corporation sees me. I'd be more worried about other people, though I don't really.
MeodwyDoody
Rian Johnson essentially killed Rey
nickwinters
Right, because she was so well developed in TFA. /s
[deleted]
[deleted]
nickwinters
All they put on her was a giant question mark. That's not development. That's laziness. I doubt Abrams knew the answers.

MDAlchemist
What mystery? The question of who are parents only had 1 non-stupid answer, that answer being that answer being it's not important (1/2)
burnin8er31415
He essentially killed Star Wars
DoublevBomb
I don't think the car commercials and other things that wear it as a skin will care. At this point I can't see it as anything but that.
blainetog
Oh the drama. He did no such thing. The OT is still just as goofy and Cookie-Cutter Hero's Journey-ey as ever. And I say that with love.
bbirbb
What you're calling the OT is fair, but that's not my criticism of the new stuff. The new stuff has zero redeeming qualities. It's shit.
JapAnus
Kathleen Kennedy killed the franchise
The5lacker
How so?

BlankMage
I know right, I need all my characters to have important parents before I can like them.
BlankMage
That's what made Avatar: The Last Airbender such a boring show. They don't even MENTION Aang's parents. What a dumb character.
The5lacker
I don't think you know what "literally murdered" means, and also would Rey be more interesting if she was only cool 'cause of her parents?
MDAlchemist
But that's the only answer to the question "Who are her parents?" that isn't mind numbingly stupid.
RedDwarfIV
That means an awful lot of let-downs.
RedDwarfIV
However, the parents question was only one of many mystery boxes Johnson decided to flat out ignore.
The5lacker
If you think Reys parents being nobody was that mystery being ignored, you weren't paying attention.
RedDwarfIV
To be fair to Johnson, Abrams setting up 'mystery boxes' with no payoff was moronic.
MDAlchemist
To be fair, I thought the "Rey's parents are nobody" answer, paid off rather nicely.
Sonicdahedgie
If you're going to tout subverting expectations as something inherently worthwhile in a movie, then Battleship was also excellent.
Sonicdahedgie
Because no one thought a movie could be mad out of a shitty kids game.
The5lacker
I get the sneaking suspicion you don't know what "Subverting expectations" means. Darth Vader being Luke's father was a subversion.
MDAlchemist
No subverting expectations is not inherently good. subverting stupid expectations however, is typically a step in the right direction.
thedownlowe
Ahsoka is way more interesting. Rey fell into everything. Ahsoka worked her ass off under who would become a sixth lord, just to get screwed
ItsJustACoincidence
It doesn’t hurt that she’s always showing her midsection either
DrDred

thedownlowe
GODDAMN AUTO CORRECT!
rockfireman
I loved Ahsoka, and though I didn't watch Rebels, I did watch her fight with Vader, and I am not afraid to admit that I cried.
hugemuffin
That was the high point, though I got chills at her involvement in the last few episodes of rebels when everything became clear.
barnwolf
Rey literally picked up a lightsaber, had a force vision, and instantly became one of the best lightsabre duelists in the universe.
jinko82
is this in the newish rebels series? i never got into it because it seemed too kiddie.
Begotten
Not a fifth lord or a seventh lord?
LeSethX
Also, Ahsoka has been around for years, so not a new thing
bb2b
There was so much fan service in the CGI. Which makes sense 'cause young boys are well, young boys. But... It's uncomfortable now.
FAILEDattempttostartaslowclap
The NON-Mary Sue..
Groetgaffel
While I agree with you, Ahsoka had way more screen time to develop. One of my favourite SW characters.
bringbakfirefly
When you are destined, everything is easier but it doesn't mean it's easy.
Barbetti
Ahsoka also has 6 seasons of character development.
LaronX
Ray so far has 2 movies of no character development. What changed about her? She can randomly use a light saber. Okay what else?
redmangc
Not to defend it... to much, but it's not Reys story, it's kylos. It's the story that anakin should have been. Man torn between L&D
LaronX
But he is supposed to be his pull to the light. And she seems awful for that.
ASongOfPissAndFarts
Ah yes, the grand old battle between the Jedidiah and the Sixth.
PacoXI

Ray is a Mary Sue character. She has no personality aside from " I am a strong female character that is strong." Terribly missed opportunity
orangeisthenewbasic
Didn't Luke fall into everything? I guess a story is better the first time around
TalkingFastSavesTime
Like losing his hand?
Ebolawakens
And his adoptive parents, home, friends, mentors, father, etc... . He also lost a fight and learned.
LonelyHumanBoy
He also didn't do shit singlehandedly, everything around him helped him get to the point where he mattered. He didn't even kill the emperor-
LonelyHumanBoy
Vader did; Luke was simply another cog in the machine that helped bring balance to the Force.
fantasticlight
Neither did Rey? Chewie blasted a giant hole in to Kylo. Dude should not have been standing let alone fighting two people.

See “sixth lord” in the previous comment.

I agree. One person's mistake becomes another person's joke.
IdTheDemon
Rey is also flawless and never loses a battle. Why is Disney afraid to have her lose to Kylo in a duel? A few days of training = Jedi lol.
Begotten
It's possible we're being bamboozled and Ben is really the last Jedi, not her.
BarretXIII
then she shoulda turned sith already! Or at least started giving off vibes that she's leaning toward the dark side, and Ben toward good.
Begotten
Plenty of things shoulda been lol. Ben has been giving those vibes all along tho, and he's done more to help the resistance than anyone.
lordofthedice
Honestly, I could care less about Ahsoka. Gimmie Rex and my boys the fighting 501st.

Clone Wars taught me more about human rights than fuckin civics.
BichesLoveMy120mmSabotPracticeRound
I would be lying if i said i never skipped political or Jedi-only episodes. Clones fucking rules.
rylecx
Also that the animated series is objectively, significantly better than the new trilogy
Cantgetaxeout
Clone wars and the subsequent series are better than episodes 1-3 and the new ones.
nonsensecomment
Sadly, yes
Hackmastergeneral
"objectively" does not mean your opinion.
rylecx
no. It means a quantifiable evaluation of poor film making and story writing. Thanks for playing, you can leave now
StephNugs
You're still just sharing your opinion.
onlyhalfghost
I got at least a cursory education in writing, filmmaking, and dramatic arts, and nah, Force Awakens and TLJ are, in fact, bad.
StephNugs
Not sure you know what 'objectively' means.
rylecx
I surely do. You clearly dont
StephNugs
Pal you're sharing your opinion. That's the opposite of objective.
rylecx
No. I'm giving a base evaluation of the film. One that's easy to tell and universally accepted. You're implying that there aren't set
rylecx
standards of what is and isn't good film making and story writing and that's just laughable
Butane9000
Auto correct strike again. Also Rey is a Mary sue instead of a real and dynamic character.
barnwolf
Ahsoka has had A LOT more screen time to develop and transform her character.
ChimneyImps
She's no more a Mary Sue than any of the previous main characters.
kr18
She wasn't a goddamn Mary Sue until Rian Johnson came along...
SugarTitillates
Its a shame really because Finn and Reys friendship is the best relationship in star wars.
SugarTitillates
I should explain. Both were taken from their family as children and forced to live lives they didnt want. After Rey spends time with him 1/
SugarTitillates
Han and big chew she has that moment of what family is like. When finn tries to leave because he's a coward she wants to return home to 2/
SugarTitillates
Her nothing life because finn was abandoning her like her family. Finn sees her get captured and immediately rushes towards danger to 3/

I feel a lot of TLJ critics, especially those who bitch about Rey being a "Mary Sure" should read that entry under "criticisms". It's levied

More often at powerful female characters

Remind me how Luke's first fight with a trained Sith went.
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
Luke got his ass walloped a couple times, and was deadweight for much of the first movie.
