10 minutes in and holy fucking shit this show goes hard.

I absolutely love the way the blaster is treated as if it were an actual firearm (AS IT FUCKING SHOULD BE) and the scene with the two cops carries all the weight that it would were it taking place in an alley in New York with a regular handgun. Just from that scene alone it already feels "real" in a way that most Star Wars media does not.

What feels refreshing about this series is that it shows the revolutionaries as complicated individuals who are compelled to act in morally questionable ways while still making it clear that they're unambiguously the good guys. I guess it's hard to both sides when one is the Evil Empire. Just nice to see modern media that isn't explicitly counter revolutionary.

I wish George Lucas had pushed the Empire only allowed humans angle, because a lot of people watching the original movies missed that.
