I'm going on a rewatch Journey. I will be following the Sam Witwer method of watching Star Wars. After every arc I will give my honest review and see how my thoughts have changed over the years since I last seen everything.
I agree that the design of the lightsaber was a major focus of the series but to say they had significant damage when out of all the trilogies the Sequels had the least dismemberment to a point of almost having none. A lot of people overreact to Kylo's cross guard with the sound and movement. I mean the ending sequence of Force Awakens says enough. The sound though is arguably the best
@realswtheory has released Vader II
I just saw it and it was amazing to see. Not only the quality but how far we have come as a fandom. I know that we are FAR from the best but it is moments like these that can give us hope. I know feelings will be pushed over reaction for some but I just ask please separate your ideals and be proud for what was done.
A project with over 8+ years of production and over 1 million dollars spent all for a FAN FILM PASSION PROJECT.
May the force be with you all
Clone Wars Season 1 review (including Movie)
Rank avg: B-
My rank: B-
Overall it is a fun and wide showing of how the Star Wars world is and functions. That is the intention Lucas and Filoni had and they delivered. There is some obvious flaws but its the first ever attempt at a true animated show for SW.
If you are a pure action lover and don't keep keen eye on the plot at all times then you would probably like it better than me but who am I to put plot boundaries on a show intended for 10-14 year-olds.
Top and Bottom 3 Arcs/Eps:
1. E15 Trespass (S Tier)

Clone Wars S1 E22: Hostage Crisis
Ep rank: C+
Cad Bane shows that he is one of the smartest and coolest Bounty Hunters to be shown as well as Anakin showing he is one of the biggest Simps to be shown. The short plot was decent but a personal highlight was seeing the Senate aesthetic.

Clone Wars S1 E19-21: Ryloth Trilogy
Arc rank: B-
Ep rank: D, B, B
One of the few arcs that show all aspects of Clone Wars with Naval battles, Ground assault, and diplomacy. Overall it has a weak start but gets the plot going well when Obi-Wan and Windu are introduced.

Clone Wars S1 E17-18: Blue Shadow Virus
Arc rank: D+
Eps rank: D, D+
Just fell flat and feels like filler, which is a problem with a lot of these types of arcs because not much is tied back to them in the future so it just ends up becoming Dad lore. I mean no build up and all of a sudden we have a galaxy level threat from a no name level character

20 days from now @realswtheory will be showing Vader II which has taken roughly 8 years of production and well over 1 million dollars in cost. This will be the largest SW fan production of all time.

Clone Wars S1 E16: The Hidden Enemy
Ep rank: B
Connecting back to the Clone Wars movie this ep shows a hidden spy among the ranks and shows the whole process of cat and mouse as well as some Jedi combat. Overall pretty good. I know this is a lot of peoples higher ranked eps but for me it was good not great

Clone Wars S1 E15: Trespass
Ep rank: S
One of personal favs (not just cause of the snow). This is how you write a 1 episode story, it makes me beg for more with this feeling of unending ideas. The character work is done beautify with the contrast of a new species connecting with the Republic and new Alliance. This is also the debut of the Clone Snow armor which is iconic.
