Hoth Takes #44: There Should Be Crying
Episode 44, Oct 27, 2023, 11:30 AM
The Disney+ series Ahsoka debuted to high expectations, but did it do justice to the fan-favorite Star Wars characters that it revisited? For Eric, Grace, and Haley, the answer — at least when it comes to three of the show’s most important characters — is no. Join us as we dig into what worked and what didn’t with Ahsoka’s portrayals of Ahsoka Tano herself, Sabine Wren, and Grand Admiral Thrawn. Eric and Grace disagree about the value of the World Between Worlds sequence, Grace and Haley disagree about the merits of Sabine wanting to be a Jedi, and we’re all mad about how Ezra and Sabine’s long-awaited reunion played out. Plus: Should Ezra have been more like Yoda? And what if Sabine is a lot like Superman?
