I enjoyed this show. It wasn’t a masterpiece, but I don’t think it set out to be. But the vigour with which some viewers will look for “plot holes”, particularly in something as oft-patchy as Star Wars, is getting ridiculous.

But no one needed to vigorously look for problems, they were there in plain sight. That’s the problem with this show.

It really depends, I think. There’s no continuity problems within the Vader lines that were called out, so that’s definitely reaching. But of course the show has problems. In my opinion, the dark cinematography is one, as is the very, very quick redemption of Haja and no one being able to carry out a fatal stabbing with a lightsaber. Qui-Gon must have been very unlucky.

I don’t view any of those issues as major deal breakers. I probably have bigger pet peeves in every instalment of the Skywalker Saga. If anyone else does, that’s perfectly fine. It’s the part of trying to win others over - and I’m not saying you’re doing this - that I really don’t get.
