" won't be making Rebels part of the fabric of the blog often but I am compelled to say that episode 1 of Rebels season 2, The Siege of Lothal, was the most exciting Star Wars-anything I have seen in a long time. They took serious notes from movie Episodes 4-6 in terms of visual styles and aesthetics and I appreciated the hell out of it.

Being a McQuarrie fan since childhood, I see so much of his handiwork embodied in Rebels, from Lothal itself to the profile of Vader's mask and while I have enjoyed how Disney deployed his conceptualization from the beginning, something really congealed in this episode, really pulled together his signature influence and the classic Star Wars look from A New Hope onwards. Visually, it was more Star Wars than I though a cartoon could get, in due part to the "classic" look of everything on screen (no offense Clone Wars) but also the spotlight on Vader and how the universe "felt right." GOOD lightsaber fights, A-Wings, CR90's lumbering around, Imperial scapegoats… and Vader. Such Vader. Wow…"

I was especially impressed with Vader's piloting skills as well as the way they conveyed the cold hatred that emanated from Vader. Nicely done and I am really looking forward to the rest of season 2.

Alas, the Disney Channel has been cut from the basic cable service, sadly.

Glad to hear it is well done though.

Mako, there are other sources. Do a bit of digging.

I saw it 3 times over the weekend and really liked it a lot.

And as Obi-Wan told Luke that Anakin Skywalker was the best Star Pilot in the Galaxy proved to be true.

Yeah, not pretty to see Anakin turned against the good guys. After watching this I'm thinking the Vader in X-Wing is seriously underpowered!

Great show though.

It's on iTunes Mako for $7. USD Worth the cash IMO.

The rest of the series2 is supposed to air on XD in the Northern "fall" season (so Spring for us southern colonials).

Just in case you were wondering how long you would have to wait.

Fortunately, one of the local broadcasters is showing the lost missions in the lead up.
