For me - this is one of the lowest points of the series (not counting Jar-Jar staring episodes). As season opening they obviously tried to make something different, setting the story underwater, but they didn't succeed. I've seen Clone wars series at least 3 times and the first 3 episodes of season 4 are certainly most boring in my view.
This was horrible. So, when Ashoka is 1 year old, her mother takes her hunting... I wonder what could go wrong... Ashoka's mother tells her that whole life is sacred, then - bang! She kills a giant kangaroo that she obviously can't carry home for the meat, but it's ok, because she says she'll take only what she needs. Then a saber-tooth attacks them and kidnaps Ashoka... I liked the animation and colors, but the writing is abysmal and stupid.
I started watching the season yesterday thinking I'll do it at one time - one episode after another. After episode 7, just before the climax, I went to bed. This is how intriguing Ahsoka is.
Directed by Bryce Dallas Howard - the queen of filler.
I liked this episode much more than the first one, albeit it's corny and somewhat cliche. Mostly I liked the resemblance of Dooku and Qui-gon's models to that of the real actors who plays them in the motion pictures.
Does this guy Jackson have some fetish with 3 hour long trilogies? It's sooo boring.
Loved the Beatles. Peter Jackson, you cunt!
They make a hole in the head of the most annoying ensign Tilly. With a drill. Unfortunately she survives. Suru also survives after dying for most of the episode. Thus, for the viewer enduring one and a half hour of boring cheesy farewell dialog is pointless and painful.
So, the most annoying ensign Tilly, who btw weights about 80 kg., wins the marathon of the ship. It happens before opening credits, so I'd not mark it as spoiler, but yes - this is how believable the entire show is.
I do have a problem here. I was very exited that Perry Mason show is live again, because I really love Erle Stanley Gardner's works and also when I was a kid in the 80's I loved Perry Mason show. Also I love Ozzy Osbourne song:
On his way to dinner, when it took him by surprise,
And with one pull of the trigger, he would vanish overnight.
Dancing by the roadside, holding on for dear life,
Then a gun from out of nowhere made a widow of his wife.
When I was in my very first class in the law school, the teacher said: "I know you all want to be heroes as in a John Grisham's novel..." and at that point I interrupted him yelling: "No, Perry Mason!" "I'm going to be Perry Mason!" He of course looked very disappointingly at me, but this is something I'll never forget.
And now we have this monstrosity as Perry Mason show. Why? Perry Mason is a LAWYER! He loves his profession, he always keeps the law, he is so self confident and wise and in the end brings justice to the bad guys, solving the crime.
Is this the case in the new HBO series? No, Perry Mason here is a lowlife private detective taking porn pictures and extorting people for cash, while fucking the bad woman from "Queen of the south" show. Why? Really why? They could have titled this stupid show whatever they wanted - like "True detective", "Law and order", etc, but no, they had to call it Perry Mason to trick people like me watching it.
I am not saying it is total crap, because I've seen only the first chapter, however I think it will be. Besides not being Perry Mason series, it's obviously a slow paced slog with more filler than substance.
Not typical Star wars stuff, rather reminds me of Star trek.
I'm done. Now it sucks. Teresa Mendosa is now like Russia - the only cocaine cartel leader with a heart of gold, who got at the top with only good attitude and being polite. Sucks a lot
