I was in the room when Ken won the Star Wars Schmoedown at SWCO in 2017. If anyone has a right to be annoyed by little pieces of trivia being changed, it's him. He doesn't seem too bothered. :) I imagine the people upset by fire in space or the age of a character will be stunned when they find out engines don't make noise in outer space either... I feel bad for the toxic "fans" actually. They traded in the memories of things they loved in order to chase clout and try to game the algorithm to get advertising dollars. Edit: Watching Alex and Mollie's live show on SWE and some people at Wookieepedia received death threats over their decision to update the lifespan of a Cerean.. Talk about toxicity...

@michaellee9926 In the words of Iman Vellani, “I don't want to focus on something that's not even in my control, because what's the point? That's for Bob Iger.” By this I mean, who cares? How does the budget and if it's profitable effect us viewers as far as the show being enjoyable or not? If it's not profitable that's not my problem, it's the executive's. The growing obsession with high budgets as a metric to say something is bad is just another tool in the belt of negativity engagement farming.

@@TheNamekianClown it illustrates a level of incompetency. Viewers and fans deserve better; if they could get some competent show runners in place we could have had 2-3 really high quality shows for the same cost. Better use of budget would mean better shows and more shows. If we are ok with this standard then they will have little incentive to improve

@michaellee9926 Just saying it's incompetency is exactly what I mean about it just being the negativity grift talking points. "They are spending twice as much as they would have 5 years ago on these things, they are wasting money!" Yeah you know what else costs twice as much as 5 years ago? *Literally everything*. So once again, this is a Bob Iger (or insert other executive here) problem. Product is natrually twice as expensive because literally everything is, and it's the money people's job to figure out how to turn product into financial gain.

I always love to see a good discussion about Star Wars. Thanks for the great video.❤ I'm so happy that I'm not someone who fixates on a fictional alien age/lifespan enough to take me out of a story. Especially when that age/lifespan has seemingly never mattered at any point in any story a cerean has ever been in. This is the same universe where Yoda's species isn't even named, right? It must be exhausting to not only sweat the small stuff but live and die on it. 😅

I do have to admit, this episode was where some of the performances and line deliveries kind of didn't work for me at times. Even still, the show is working for me overall. I'm so curious if next week's episode will be a direct continuation or a flashback.

The Mae switch works for me because in episode one instead of killing witnesses she spares them. Then when she sees her sister her face visibly softens. Then when Sol is talking to Osha he says upon hearing you were alive she became a different person. Meaning he could since the hope in her. Then she has new information that directly changes her motivations. No longer revenge but hope

Genuinely curious why you guys are so adamant about only speaking on positive things you felt about the show/episode, especially when the beginning of this episode feels like you guys are tiptoeing and dancing around what you really want to say but trying not to be critical or negative. Isn’t part of a review being critical or negative of the media as well as positive? If people only talked positively about media how would it ever improve or change. It doesn’t make you a bad person for not liking something or parts of it and discussing it.
