RE: OT: Star Wars Thread [Warning: Possible Spoilers]
The power rangers with the colorful vespas were stupid, and I hope we never see them again. That looks like it was only added to sell toys to kids, terrible plot choice and delivery on that one.
Unfortunately it appears that everything leads to the sequel trilogy and the amazing wonder Rey. The sequels were straight trash, and if that is what star wars is now, I am probably done. I will continue to re-watch the original trilogy and some of the prequels. I can just pretend that is all Star Wars is and be perfectly fine with that.

I'd add in Rogue One and Solo, which wasn't that bad a movie except for the stupid Lando-droid "relationship" and the "robot beellion" thingy. Okay, maybe I just wanted to like the story in spite of the extra garbage they put in, but compared to VIII and IX it's a masterwork. I still want to see how aSolo II would go to find out what-all happens and get some Jabba time and Darth Maul, as the set-up was pretty good by current SW "standards."
RE: OT: Star Wars Thread [Warning: Possible Spoilers]
The amazing wonder Rey and the fact that she was great at every thing she tried to do and never had any struggles was what did it for me. Terrible character arc and the average person just cannot relate to someone that has no struggles and is an expert at everything with no training whatsoever.
Future generations will study how Disney mismanaged and damaged the single biggest movie IP in the history of cinema.

You brought up an interesting statement...

So, I have a question... and at this time I got no idea if its spoilers or not LOL
I was pretty sure Star Wars Rebels (animated) was post Clone Wars.... and Clone Wars (Ep 2) were post Episode 1... so how can Darth Maul appear? Does Rebels go into how Ezra can run into him in that temple? And on that note, why would those two Inquisitor characters be on the hunt for Maul... and just based on what Maul said (I plan to rewatch that episode anyway)... what status would he hold with the Sith at that point and how the hell is he still alive after Obi-Wan sawed him in half in Episode 1.

You need to watch Rebels to appreciate everything Filoni and Favreau are trying to do with the Disney+ shows. Maul wasn’t killed when he was sliced in half. In fact, he faces Obi Wan again in Rebels. I won’t “spoil” anything more than that for those who haven’t yet seen it.

Can you at least tell me the "how" does get explained then?
I can't swear to it, off memory, if Palpatine rattles off at the end of Skywalker he was Snoke, Palpatine, that dude from earlier in the later trilogy, and Maul as part of his end speech when Rey and him talk in that Sith temple.
