good time to go back and watch CW while we wait for anything to happen on this show. And of course the good shows are more a continuation from CW characters showing up on Rebels.
Someone let me know when there is a more mature and good star wars show. An anime series would be nice. Anything but this stuff.
Anything but Star Wars anime, please…
We kinda’ already had that. It was called Star Wars: Clone Wars. Sound familiar?
‘Cause this is filler! Filler night!
But seriously, this is gonna be filler tho.
Well, I am looking forward to it, at least. I don’t see character development as filler, either.
this episode will include Geonosis, expecially Death Star Building
I just love how many people here say how this is another filler. When they have no idea how filler looks.
Like seriously i watch anime and you have no idea what filler is.
Filler for example is 20 episode long dream sequence or episode long flashbacks. And yes i actually saw shows who did exactly that.
Exactly.
I guess if that’s your metric of quality.
For me personally though… I am PISSED that the season pass only purchased half a season… I was going to start binge watching & then found out the 2nd half of season 2 wasn’t included in my season purchase… would have been nice to know in advance. Adios Filoni!
Which ones? I’m morbidly interested now.
Well apparently the old pre-remaster Dragon Ball Z had an entire episode arc devoted to the main character getting his driver’s license, because the actual important plot of the show wasn’t published in the comics at the time, so the show had fill the waiting-gap with something.
Never really got into it but another to add to my list now. Life itself is pretty much one big filler episode for most people anyway. Lol.
Practically any anime which have over 50 episodes. As is mentioned below anime goes too fast and they must fill space during waiting on new manga.
And that dream sequence is from Naruto and it happening right now. You can go on their site watch newest episodes and they are all dream sequence.
So yes many people should truly stop using word filler on episodes which clearly are focused on character development and exploring Galaxy far far away.
I’ll be back in 50 episodes then! Though to be fair, At least the animation in anime is generally purtier than anything we see in Rebels.
Matter of opinion that I happen to disagree with.
Yes, we’ve seen Evangelion…pseudo-intellectual wankfest, jailbait, etc. Yeah, sticking the Ahsoka / Vader duel footage out there WEEKS ago, having planted that DNA in the SEASON OPENER, then (as I mentioned above) having the several weeks of mid-season break + (now) 5 x consecutive weeks off the critical plot thread (Ahsoka knows Vader = Anakin). Pretty much doesn’t get much “fillier” than that (unless you watched the last 2 seasons of BSG)
Sounds like the problem is your expectations my friend. All of the episodes thus far have been used to develop characters and further flesh out the Star Wars universe, looks like this one is going to do the same. Be patient.
Because space whales are sop important to the Star Wars lore.
Well it was interesting episode. Which expanded Star Wars universe. I don’t see nothing wrong with that.
There’s nothing wrong with it in itself. What’s wrong is that it has no bearing on the overall story of Rebels.
It has bearing on Star Wars universe. And overall plot ?! They go there for fuel that fit overall plot.
So only problem is there isn’t any mention of Ahsoka vs Vader but as I said that your problem not problem of the show.
“Bearing on the Star Wars universe”
It briefly alludes to Geonosis being exterminated, which we already saw in the Vader comic. So no, no bearing.
If you think that crucial character development have no bearings. Then you should really reconsider why you evan watch Rebels.
No bearing the PLOT.
As was said below, this is your problem. Not problem of the show. Perhaps showing that Vader and Ahsoka will have duel was mistake, because many people want see that badly. But that doesnt make every other episode filler.
Moreover people know this is season finale. What you expect from rest of season ?!
It’s not a ‘problem’ – it’s an opinion. Loosen the bun. Episode 1 (sneak peek) of Rebels Season 2 aired last June, with the 1st half of the season not arriving til the Fall – October, to be exact. They then aired…what, 10-11 episodes, and THEN took another 6 weeks off, give or take. We’ve been back now 5 x new episodes, NOT A SINGLE ONE dealing w/ the crucial plot thread introduced roughly 8 MONTHS ago. So yeah, you’re right: Rebels S02 isn’t full of filler – it’s the c**ktease at the bar, siphoning free drinks that you warn your bros to steer FAR clear of…
Again that is your problem. It seems you failing to realize that this is TV show and surprisingly it have normal episodes and season finale. That revelation what ?
Again we know in advance Ahsoka vs Vader will be season finale so i dont see your problem. Only problem is you don’t have any patients.
And AGAIN: It’s an opinion, princess. Only a fascist needs to have their opinion ascendant and filter out all others. Yup, I watch Rebels weekly, but unlike you, I’ve not drunk the Kool-Aid you have that allows one to think it’s ‘good pacing’ to stick a hunk of red meat in your double-episode, season-premiere (Tarkin, Vader, Ahsoka), then let it lie fallow for ~9 months and wile away the weeks with ‘buddy’ episodes like this week’s installment, ‘Kallus & Zeb’s Excellent Adventure’…
But this is not matter of opinion episode is either filler or not. This episode involve extremely important character development. So no this episode is not filler. It simple as that.
And again if something is in the trailer that doesn’t mean it going to be next episode.
Your problems with patience is something else.
It’s his opinion, dude. Be respectful….
I am but episode is either filler or not. In this is definetly not. End of story.
End of *your opinion*.
Wait…so lurking in orbit around Geonosis (‘cos the Death Star mk I used to be parked there) for like 20 seconds, and ruminating over “0” inhabitants on the planet’s surface* constitutes an important development?
(or was it the completely telegraphed, utterly predictable “Enemy Mine” meets ‘Ebony & Ivory’ plot point between Kallus + Zeb?)
You should probably read more books, b/c qualifying last night’s episode as much other than filler requires an Olympian stretch (or a recent major head-trauma…)
*Either b/c they test-fired the DS laser, or Kevin Smith’s ‘Clerks’ discussion on civilian contractors who built the Death Star just acquired a new ripple…
Really like the lighting, They may ge to TCW quality yet if they keep improving at this rate or at least in terms of animation.
Damn, I wish I could catch this show, but I’m never free at the times it shows, + the 6-month gap before Japan releases stuff.
This is why we have file-sharing sites…come to the Dark Side
Meh. Not looking forward to this one at all. Variations of this story has been done so many times in other shows and movies.
Star Wars itself had been done in many variations in other shows and movies and comics and novels etc.
TCW had some cool homage episodes. I don’t mind a little ‘Enemy Mine’ homage – great sci-fi film.
Fantastic film!
OKAY, Naysayers….
I just watched the first minute of tonight’s episode (up on XD online) and I can assure you it is not a filler episode. I had to pause the damn episode to tell you that, because it got down to business (quite important, too) right out of the gate.
Great episode, and some serious possibilities brewing in the end.
Thank you.
The first minute directly impacts Rogue One, and also gives us an idea of when in the timeline Geonosis was sterilized, as mentioned in volume one of Marvel’s Vader.
where’s the pastebin link from A New Hope for this episode? I’m DYING to watch it!!
The “are you afraid of the dark” and the creature look reminded me a lot of Pitch Black, stealth Riddick homage?
Just watched the episode on the Disney XD app. Filler.
Character development is not a Filler.
If you never saw filler episode that your problem.
But then dont say about episodes which are clearly not filler, that they are.
Plot-wise, the episode is filler. You may not want to admit it, but it’s true.
I don’t understand how anyone can say about this episode that it is filler.
This episode fundamentally changed what we think about one of the antagonist.
And this one episode could started storyline which will span several seasons.
As i see it, never understatement officer who started ask questions.
