First season is a bit slow to start but Rebels soon takes off to provide Star Wars fans with a great experience. It expands on the Star Wars mythos in a great way, with amazing characters and a good plot. Now that the show is over I can't wait to see the sequel.
... View MoreCould have been very good but it seems like they don't let them do what the writers wanted to or they don't have the thing sorted out. It is very common that animation for the US market has issue with killing, if the enemy is using a helmet or is in a ship, then kill him and no problem. But if is one of the main antagonist and maybe killed hundreds and will continue to destroy everything, well, you can't kill that character on purpose if you are the good guy. It is funny how they force push stormtropper to their doom and destroy entire ships without remorse. Also Ezra almost always is behaving like a child. Someone: "don't do that" Ezra : "what? i can do whatever i want, you will see........ you were right"Just want to see it end but am not hoping nothing amazing about the story.
... View MoreAnyone that still loves Star Wars I can warmly recomend this series.Unlike the "sequel" fiasco this show keeps true to the legacy of George Lucas.The characters are well written and the voice acting is superb, the heroes face adversity that they have to overcome and actually have to WORK for it and not allways it is a sure victory.Many hillarious and emotional moments.Thank you Dave Filoni for keeping the Star Wars torch alive.
... View MoreDevoid of most mature themes this is a good children's show...ONLYThe Lion King had more mature themes, so i know its possible to insert mature themes into kids shows.first off the best characters on this show are Kanan and Hera...and followed closely by returning mature characters, which i wont spoil...i say this since, they are written like real people would be... not spastic children with intermittent amnesia, which itself seems to be dependent on the laziness of the writers in that episode. The show is way too inconsistent, esra is by far the worst abuser of the writing style for this series, his character is constantly inconsistent in his Morales his skills, one episode he'l be wiser and opting to save people, the next he's willing to let people die of starvation because something is "hard". This is lazy writing, the writers ruin any growth of character and progress with esra by suddenly making him buffoonish or goofy for the purposes of, usually a small non essential plot point, same with sabine although to a lesser extent.The show is devoid of mature themes and good writing, and thinks it can excuse that by saying "its a kids show" huh-ha!... And it is an excuse for poor writing as some of the characters that appear in the show, young audiences would have NO CLUE who they are or why they are there...they are fan service for the older audience.doing as little as possible and still claim its a show for all ages, which the producers have claimed.That is primarily what bugs most of the people that are fans of the old show, and why you see such bad reviews for it here. If your a tiny baby child(8 or 7) or a parent looking for a good childs show for your son/daughter its excellent...no killing, no mature themes, just shiny colors and sounds.... it is Y7 rating after allif your even moderately literate and read sci-fi books as a 10yo+ (like i did, not many tbh) you will find it bland comparatively , that's probably the second most insulting part of the show its so dumb even for a kids show, its a bit of an insult to a child's intellectlike i said in the opening "the lion king" had more mature themes. it can be done, they're just lazy, look at the production values as well....the animation is ghastly, the recurring VO's omg! are just annoying i swear there are just 3-4 storm troopers in the whole universe and they all quickly run around the galaxy to wherever esra is."we want a good show, but we don't want to spend a lot of money on it" seems to be the motto...
