Despite everything that looks wrong with this, I'm looking forward to the movie-length first part like nothing else. Because from a certain point of view, it's the first proper* Star Wars movie to be released in 30 years!
(* I choose to define "proper" as it featuring Stormtroopers, the Empire, Rebels, beat-up technology, new young charismatic characters, fun, excitement and everything that the 3 prequels and the Clone Wars movie lacked)
Correction. When they said "movie-length", they actually meant "not movie-length". I'm going back to my default pessimism about this show.
Then after having watched the awesome 45minute (Distinctly not feature-length) first episode...

Well that was quick! I guess the preview turn out was good:
DISNEY XD ORDERS SECOND SEASON OF STAR WARS REBELS AHEAD OF TELEVISION PREMIERE
Star Wars Rebels will be introduced via a television movie, Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion, premiering Friday, October 3 (9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel in the U.S. and Monday, October 6 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney XD in the U.S. It ushers in the series beginning Monday, October 13 (9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney XD in the U.S. The series will air in 34 languages across 163 countries in over 400 million households.
...so the 45 minute episode I've seen was just a preview of part 1 and tomorrow will be the full-length 90 minute (Spark Part 1 & 2)????
Is it just me or are Disney making this much more confusing than it needed to be. Anybody got anything official on this situation?
