Finally Watched Star Wars Visions.

Gotta say, they should NOT have led with The Duel. That episode is insane. I literally cannot get over how good it was, besides some wacky pacing here and there. May get the book. The rest were either mediocre or somewhat decent, like The Elder, The Ninth Jedi, and whatever the last one was called, can’t remember. T0-B1, on one hand, hurt because I’m a big Star Wars fan and seeing established canon over decades being destroyed so quickly was rough, but on the other the animation was charming and the music was really interesting. I think what hurt a lot of these episodes is how you could take out whatever defining Star Wars trait the studios brought in to link it with Star Wars (like Stormtroopers and lightsabers in Lop and Och), and have a perfectly normal animated one-off. Great art regardless, but I think that held it back. Tatooine Rhapsody was bad. No reason to care for the characters, and the music it was centered around didn’t stand out as being particularly good (which I suppose is just subjective, but I’ve had a bunch of people who have watched it agree with me, so I think there’s at least a little merit in that). Going back to the Ninth Jedi, I can’t say it was particularly good in comparison to the rest (especially The Duel), but it felt very… Star Wars. I don’t really know how to put it, besides it felt like it could definitely fit into a Star Wars plot easily. Juro (the guy with the robot) was badass. The animation was clean too. Anyways, that’s it. Going over all of them would make this too long, so I just went over the ones I found the most interesting.

  • I wanted to hate T0-B1, but it reminded me of myself when I would swing lightsabers in my backyard when I was like 9 or so and wanted to be a jedi. So I couldn't hate it.
