I still maintain my criticism of the character and her place in the story even if I disagree with certain other users on things like acting, performance, etc. And obviously no one deserves to get hate for anything superficial in the real world regardless of how anyone may personally feel about their role in a production. Make no mistake, my issue is a writing one, not anything else.
This is your edit NFB and I trust given the decisions you’ve made so far that you’ll find a way to smartly integrate everything in a way that matches the quality of other shows like BCS and BB.
Of course, the actor was doing her job, I only gave a clear characteristic in her style. The bigger culprit here is the direction, casting, scrip writing and just overall performance, making her not very believable.
Here are a few noticeable problems with the Third Sister surviving Order 66 in the Temple:
-
In Revenge of the Sith, the only reason the younglings thought that Anakin was not part of the massacre taken place by Clone battalions, was because he came into the chambers alone. Had Anakin entered the room while being followed by 15 troopers (which they’ve seen killing Jedi, yet somehow are peaceful towards him), YOU WOULD NEVER EXPECT ANAKIN TO BE HELPING THE ORDER.
-
The clones didn’t just kill internees in the Temple, they shot at them for multiple rounds. They didn’t leave anything to chance (if you don’t believe me, go rewatch the sequence of Order 66 and you’ll see groups of clones shooting at the corpses in the floor).
-
Even if the Third Sister did survive the blade punctured into her, and the clones “checking” the corpses, she would have had to stay in the room. Pretending to be dead until Obi Wan and Yoda arrived. The Temple was plagued of clones waiting for surviving Jedi to return. The only time when she would have been able to escape the Temple was when Obi Wan and Yoda destroyed all the security forces that were there. She would have know perhaps that Obi Wan was fighting to save Jedi.
So turning things around after a few key points. What do you think is the background for this fixation on Kenobi? Did she think that Utapau was somehow free of clones? Why would she think he specifically survived the Order?
Why did she not worry about Yoda at all?
Well my only conclusion is that she has seen the entire series already. Through the force, and narrated by the Wills no doubt… Why isn’t she hunting Yoda, Mace Windu, Ki Adi Mundi, Plo Koon, etc… I know why, because she saw the movies. Younglings and even most Jedi didn’t know each other’s padawans. There’s an episode in Clone Wars where Anakin and Ashoka fight alongside Luminara and Barris (S2E6) and Barris introduces herself to Ashoka. Ashoka is much older than Reva at this point and she has been in several battles, as is Barris. The fact that Reva knows Anakin is Obi Wan’s apprentice can only be explained by the fact that Reva watched the movies.
