There were a lot of really, really annoying points in the series. Like Obi-Wan and Leia fleeing in that ship where they look around like "Oh no, these people must not die!' when it's a ship full of characters that no one gives a flying fuck about and we all know that the only two important people on it will survive. Or Reva bum rushing Owen and Beru to kill Luke when we all know that it's a big nothingburger. I actually did like Reva's arc well enough. Redemption arcs are baked into the mythos. They are just part of this universe so you might as well get used to it. [Reply]

Gripes aside, and they’re big gripes, I really enjoyed the episode. Little Leia I thought was excellent. Maybe it’s because my daughter is 8(even though she’s nothin like this character), that makes me a captive audience, but I thought her stuff was compelling. As bad as it was early, it was good at the end.
Fight was awesome. That’s why I’m here. Fuck yeah.
McGregor remains the shining performance in everything post 1983. And per usual he was let down by garbage writing.
Leia is supposed to be 10. A well educated, highly intelligent, force sensitive 10 year old. I thought the character sucked. [Reply]

Meh. I’m not going to Stan for her or anything but I thought it worked. At the end anyway. Early on I thought it blew. [Reply]

I think she did better towards the end of the season and the dialogue written for her was better as well. I'm just disappointed that it wasn't handled better. [Reply]
