I'm very pleased with this episode. Don't get me wrong, I like politics (okay I tried resisting it for as long as possible before giving in) but I wasn't interested in the politics of the earlier episodes, nor of the countless attempts on Padme's life, so it was with a great deal of relief that this episode turned up. So much so that I keep watching it, over and over! finally having Dooku being badass and winning. Ventress, okay, I'm not so familiar with her, but she was quite fun to watch, especially her flashbacks! As I said, I don't know her backstory, but this is one of those times, those rare times, when I think to myself 'I want to know more about this Clone Wars based character.' Okay, I'm gushing, but I can't help it! And that planet! What was it? It looked like a sunnier Ren Var, but whatever, I'm not a big fan of cities, give me ruins and the archaeologist in me comes alive!
I could go on forever about the Dooku battle and the apparent ode to Ep III, but time is short, so for now I'll end with my amusement over the inclusion of the Nightsister's views on men, as evidenced by the Mother's words and tone when speaking to Dooku. _________________ I am a Star Wars fan.
