Only real negative was how the animated Ki-Adi, he looked terrible. The real negative I feel will come next week, based on the preview I am dreading that episode. Nothing pisses me off more than the idea of them taking an established character like Barriss and dumbing her down so that Ahsoka can look better. _________________ Bill's Movie Emporium Bill's TV Emporium The Domain Of Nihilus

The action was AWESOME, but the story failed hard. Try again, Filoni. Always so negative, Joe. And I agree that they build Ahsoka up as the best thing since sliced whatever the SW-equivelent of bread is. Not cool. _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out.

Nothing pisses me off more than the idea of them taking an established character like Barriss and dumbing her down so that Ahsoka can look better. See for me I was stoked Barriss will be in it. 2 reasons: 1) I like Barriss. 2) They will now have a Barriss TCW action figure I can buy my daughter (they need more girl characters, and it's nice to "see" them on the shelves) Now I will be right there with you when (Cough) i mean if they take her and dump on her EU background. but this is taking place before the Medstar books. I hope Barriss makes Asohka look bad in the end. _________________ -Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn.

Doubt it. They like conferring incredible levels of awesomeness on Ahsoka. Very impressive for a 11/14 year old. Speaking of which, shouldn't they have cleared up how old she is by now? It's annoying. _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out. So this is how liberty dies....with thunderous applause.

True- but on the other hand- Ashokas dead sooner then all the other Jedi, so they do need to make us LIKE her in some form, though it appears they are failing _________________ -Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush.

I remember Dave Filoni talked about there being one of those before Season 1 started, I was wondering what happened to it. _________________ Where sky and water meet, Where the waves grow sweet, Doubt not, Reepicheep, To find all you seek, There is the utter east.

As a matter of fact, if not for him I would have missed this on Wednesday, Dish Network didn't change their schedule at all. _________________ Bill's Movie Emporium Bill's TV Emporium The Domain Of Nihilus

After seeing my blank faced stare, she finally got it right. This coming from the woman who introduced me to SW. Alas, she doesn't know the prequels very well. _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out. So this is how liberty dies....with thunderous applause.

I say Dooku and my Mom and Sister get sad- my Dog who passed away was the Duke of Earl and they would hear me call him Dooku and liked it not knowing it was SW. _________________ -Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush.

Just so much imagery...certainly worth watching a couple more times to pick up the details you missed. I felt it was one of the best episodes yet. I really nice change of pace and style. No complaints here. _________________
