    ...rogueish bisexuals engaged in an ongoing affair between kooky misadventures, all behind the back of one's abusive lover?

    I like where you're going with this

    Wow. I haven't visited this thread in a day or so and it appears as though the G-rated FOD shorts have somehow evolved into a more mature discussion.

    The Clone Wars micro series was about 2 hours (maybe a little less) in its entirety so I am guessing they will wait until there is at least that much worth of Forces of Destiny before they see a physical media release.

    My 2 year old watched the entire series on Youtube and she loved it. She was mesmerised. That gives the series a clear win in my eyes. My own complaints as a Star Wars fan come from a grown man for whom this series was not marketed for and I temper those complaints with that realisation.

    Those complaints though were mostly to do with the Wampa episode and the Jyn Erso one. I didn't like the Erso short because it was way out of her character in that time of her life to stick her neck out for anyone and she would especially not have given her real name.
    My issue with the Wampa episode was that I didn't think Leia in that period of her life would have done any of the things she did in that short with that kind of ease and tenacity. We are talking about the person who only a few days later screamed when she saw a mynock touch a window. Now we are suddenly seeing her tackling a giant wampa that just incapacitated a full grown wookiee. This wamap also happened to be of the same species that knocked Luke, a Jedi who was in training for about three years, out cold and almost ate him. I don't buy it. The grown Leia of Return of the Jedi, the Sequel Trilogy, or even the later books of the EU maybe. But not as she was in TESB. At that time she was more of a tactical leader than a fighter.
    But as I said this series was not for my demographic. It was catered to young girls and that is a good thing. So I don't take these shorts too seriously like some Youtube commenters seem to and overall I did enjoy the series. And my daughter likes them which means they are doing what they are supposed to.

    Well that's good news.
    Hopefully they will release them all on a blu ray one day too. That would be fun to add to the SW collection of films and television series.

    The porgs look so awesome in 2D... And Maz helped in the rescue of Han... pretty interesting.

    Another Ahsoka/Padme episode, really?:rolleyes:
    I wanted to see Padme and Anakin alone without Ahsoka for once but the situation described in the synopsis is really the only reason I'm not completely disappointed by this.

    That episode with Ahsoka and the secret couple sounds interesting; because it could explain why Ahsoka knows more about their relationship than anyone else (outside of OB1 and Palpatine).

    Mark voicing Luke in a canon animated show is, hopefully, a good sign for bigger things to come!

    I did not think Porgs could look cuter then they already do, but they somehow managed to do it.

    They sure provide much needed sustenance for a starving islander.
    Marinating them in various secret Jedi spices and herbs while roasting them over an open flame is sure to delight. [face_mischief]
