SPOILER Rebels Review S01 E08: "Path of the Jedi"

Now all we need is the Link....

 

This episode, by far and away, was my favorite episode of Rebels to date. It was nearly perfect across the board.

 

I wish they had given him a different lightsaber color. Nothing exotic but anything but blue. I also thought it would have been a nice touch to add in the Jedi mantra when the vision Inquisitor was about to kill Ezra. "There is no death, there is the Force." Overall good ep maybe a 7.

 

I really enjoyed this episode, I got an Anakin vibe from Ezra though. I think if Kanan dies then Ezra will fall to the darkside. He wants to protect his friends and has alot of pent up anger in him which we saw when he used the darkside in the last episode. I look forward to what is to come from this series.

 

Same!!!!

 

Can't wait to leave Lothal! But it is like in the old KOTOR Games....you are on planets(Or other stuff) for just toooo long!!!

 

Help us Hoagie ! You're our only help ^^

mhm...there is another ?! Thanks Rebelfan !

 

THANK YOU!!

 

A fantastic episode. Some of the plot was a little eye-roll inducing (Temple on Lothal. Euuggh) But still. Probably the series' darkest. Those deaths. The way they were shot. Fantastic!

Also, the music seems much better in this episode. I thought the earlier scores were a little shaky. This was an 8/10 for me.

 

I don't like Ezra's lightsaber, it reminds me of those Chinese bootleg laser-sword toys with hilts like these.
Also.... muaaaaaah.... JEDI TEMPLE ON LOTHAL! No kidding!!!! I won't be surprised that in Season 7, we still following our Heroes on Lothal,
where they already visited places like Senate building, Naboo Royal Palace, podraces, huge imperial shipyards for star destroyers and skyhook of Prince Xizor,
will to everyones shock uncover, that Empire was secretly building a Death Star inside the planet and plans to breaktrough the core!!!!!

Joking aside, the rest of the review sounds like it is kinda good episode, so I can't wait to see it mostly because of Yoda.
The funny thing with the temple. We have Agent Kalus, who somehow is able to sniff out force sensitive people by his nose. Inquisitor trained in the Dark Side of the Force. Both are looking for Jedi and Padawan, yet no one is guarding a huge Jedi Temple. Also, why is there temple on Lothal, when there is one on Coruscant?
Why is everything on Lothal

Also it is weird that Rebels has such small budget compared with Clone Wars. It is Star Wars and it is Disney. So what is the problem?

 

Well, Rebels has a smaller budget because Disney is funding it, and by season 3, because George wanted to push the animation for Darth Maul's return, he began to pay for The Clone Wars from his own pocket. Mind you, it created an amazing 3 seasons thereafter, but yeah it actually makes sense Rebels has a tighter budget. Seeing how well it's doing however, and how the style works very well for its budget, I hope Rebels gets moved to the main Disney Channel so it can reach The Clone Wars levels for ratings, and their budget, seeing how season 2 was already ordered, should go up thanks to the success.

 

Well, it is true that in wake of Lucas' own injection, the show got really good in case of animation mostly.
Tough we've got different planets, locations and designs before since the Season One and I still regard the Malevolence storyline one of the best in that Season.
That is some really tight budget we are talking about then :/ That's a shame, Rebels could be so much more with more money.

 

It will soon enough. I expect season 2 to do with the actual formation of all these rebels cells, like the Lothal Rebels and the Onderon Rebels (from The Clone Wars), into the actual Rebel Alliance. An episode with X-Wings and Biggs Darklighter is my dream, but hopefully something close to that

 

That would be really cool! Some characters that I can actually care about. Tough if it is still canon, we won't see Bigs like for 1 year before the ANH and he would still be a TIE fighter pilot.

 

Of course. Rebels does have to get pretty close imo to A New Hope, or at least up to that bounty hunter death star plans heist. Now a tie in with the spnoff and the movie? Amazing.

 

Just saw the episode finally. Wow, except for Lothal, it was really good. I don't have any serious cons with this episode, the Inquisitor bits were pretty cool.
That star map more remimended of Episode 2 map in the room with Jedi kids and Yoda. The part with Inquisitor reminded me of ESB in the cave on Dagobah and hints on things we saw in Clone Wars.
Tough I think that it is not a good idea to train Ezra I wonder, if we will see Vader once more and get maybe more Inquisitors later on?

 

The Star Maps part totally reminded me of KOTOR and its Star Maps connected with the Star Forge. That was a cool way to link EU. The next episode title, "Idiot's Array", may have the one and only LANDO CALRISSIAN. That's what I found on an article online, but if Billy Dee Williams is actually back - Awesome!
