The clip i saw was dumb and unoriginal. Could have been lifted straight out of Return of the Jedi .

 Is that a bad thing?

 I honestly don't think it's a bad thing at all.   The overall style of "Rebels" says original trilogy, so it's fitting that the score be the same.

I'm having trouble getting past that boy, Erza, looking like a CGI version of Aladdin.

I'm having trouble getting past that he has the same name I do.

Oh, and it's "Ezra" not "Erza". =P

 I always thought Star Wars needed more Jews.

Overall I'm digging it though the influence of the SE is becoming more prevalent. I hate that they're modeling the Tie explosions off of the desaturated shots from ANH. =(

The saddest part is that everyone will love it for not being like the prequels.

Um, I seriously doubt they consciously decided to model the explosions on the SE versions.

You know of the rebellion against the Empire?

 They're already modelling the lightsabers based on the SE's recomposite of the original blades.

Though I do have to take back what I said. I went back to the GOUT and the tie explosions are white there too. I think I got mixed up with either the Alderaan or Death Star explosion being desaturated.

The Chopper clip was great. It felt OT to the max to me; made me laugh, was action-packed, suspenseful, but you knew the good guys would win the day. I like Chopper, he's funny, but in an Artoo way, not a Jar-Jar way. It wasn't too over the top.

The Filoni clip just posted is good, too. I like the idea of disparate bands of rebels becoming the Rebel Alliance. I like the idea of exploring different parts of the whole we see in the OT.

I'm excited. Having seen GoTG today, I'm getting a lighter version of that as a vibe from the show so far.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

Gosh, this is going to be full of stupid stormtroopers not running away from detonators/grenades. And yay, more incredibly fast weightless people!

Lord I hate that character. 

Sexy little girl Boba Fett! Loves to draw! Purple floral helmet! Bare arms and neck and unarmored tiny little abdomen. Loves to draw! Wears a giant helmet on her pencil thin unarmored neck, but calls the fully armored soldiers "bucket head." And loves to draw!

Why exactly did they make her a Mandalorian, again?

to appeal to Traviss-worshippers

My guess would be that it gives Filoni an excuse to go back and reinforce that the Mandos have abandoned that peaceful society stuff GL introduced in the Clone Wars.

On the positive side, I could get used to the animation style (aside from my above-mentioned complaint).

And to do that they have to create a DayGlo Mandalorian graffiti artist?

I'm trying to remain cautiously optimistic towards this show, but this is looking more-and-more like a good example of the cure being worse than the disease.

I'm glad that they're starting to give some attention to the original series for once. I remember how much hype the prequels got when they started doing Star Wars The Clone Wars animated series. It got to the point of being sickening

 On the surface of it, I'm not all that happy with the character either. But we'll have to wait and see how the character develops over time in the show before passing final judgement.

I'll say it again, so this a Disney kids show where the heroes are terrorists? LOL

Oh and I fixed that link ^.

VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.
