[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 9388696, member: 22779"] I was cogitating what's bugging me about this show. And, I think it's this: The first Jedi to be killed, Master Indara was a fantastic scene. Really well choreographed, intelligent, and pretty much everything I want from Star Wars. It really hooked me in. Why is this character trying to kill these particular Jedi? There's a great mystery here. Cool Then the next Jedi to be killed, Master Torbin. Fantast stuff. The whole "retreated from the world to contemplate existence" thing is very cool. The idea that you can meditate just that hard that you can't be killed is pretty cool. And the added mystery of why Torbin kills himself is great. This is some pretty solid stuff. Then there's episode 3. Again, very cool. Dives into the history of our two twins. Yeah, sure, some of the dialogue might be a bit ... lacking, but, hey, it's cool and there's still that pretty solid mystery there. And it's moving things forward. I'm really into the show. Next, episode 4. Forty minutes of people standing around doing nothing. Oh, no, they're not doing nothing. They're sauntering through a forest. The next Jedi master, a Wookiee Jedi (very cool) just dies. Nothing. No fight scene. No dialogue. He's just a corpse. Total let down after building this character up for the previous two episodes. Finally epsisode 5. So full of plo... oops, sorry, must be correct here, inconsistencies that it's leaking like a sieve. All those characters introduced in episodes 3 and 4 are now dead. I care that they are dead... why? They had no lines to speak of, if they even had names, I totally missed it. The two Jedi from Episode 2 who were watching over Master Torbin had more actual impact on the plot than the half a dozen red shirts. I just hope that the show turns things around. The last two episodes have been very disappointing for me. I WANT to like this show. And, for the first three eps, I was liking it. So, here's hoping. [/QUOTE]
