Ahsoka brings mystery back to Star Wars

The first two episodes are a great start for the latest Disney Plus expansion of a galaxy far, far away.

  • This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The show starts out like classic Star Wars, complete with a title crawl (this time in red text) followed by a massive spaceship slowly making its way through the inky expanse of space.

    Only instead of leading everyone to Luke Skywalker, this map is a chance for the bad guys to find an exiled admiral named Thrawn, who, we’re told, will bring another war with him.

    On the other team are followers of the dark side of the force, a master named Baylan (Ray Stevenson) and his apprentice Shin (Ivanna Sakhno), who are working at the behest of Lady Morgan (Diana Lee Inosanto).

    As the two sides vie for a little golden ball containing an important map, they venture to long-lost temples and crypts, places steeped in the history of the Force and the Jedi.

    Ahsoka also delves into some of the more fascinating parts of the Star Wars universe, most notably the Nightsisters, which are witches that provide an interesting counterpoint to the magic and mysticism of the Jedi and Sith.

    There are some great lightsaber battles, particularly when Ahsoka whips out her dual blades to dismantle some warrior droids, as well as some slick chase sequences with Sabine on her speeder.

  • I don't know... two episodes in and nothing happened.. I fear it will be another "series-that-could-have-been-a-movie" type of thing :S
