The Clone Wars 1x13 & 1x14 Full Reaction - Google Drive

Another great reaction. I loved George Takei as the villain, Lok Durd and was laughing at just how much fun George was clearly having when voicing the character. The whole attachments are forbidden is tricky because the Jedi often encourage the master/apprentice bond, yet they also state that no attachment can be formed. As you point out, it does send a very mixed message. I enjoyed your analysis of the, I guess Don Bluth looking species. I agree with you in that their attitude is admirable, but past a certain point is very much mistaken. The village elder also raises the valid point that the Jedi are presenting themselves as hypocrites. As Mace WIndu said in Attack of the Clones, "We're keepers of the peace, not soldiers." The belief that the Jedi are just as much to blame for war and subsequent destruction is nothing new in fact it's been a recurring belief in the galaxy. About four thousand years prior to the Clone Wars the belief was quite popular, leading to such statements like, and here I quote, "The Jedi...the Sith...To the Galaxy, they're the same thing: Men and women with too much power, squabbling over religion, while the rest of us burn." Like I said, a great reaction, I'm really loving hearing your thoughts and insights into this show, and I can't wait for next weeks reaction.
