A Star Wars Celebration: Tales of the Jedi

 

                I've been trying for years to do my own little celebration of the greatest movie franchise of all time and there were multiple times I wanted to celebrate Star Wars on my own terms by doing a review on May 4th. Unfortunately, time and life have been a pain in my own a**, so A Star Wars Celebration of my own design will just have to do. And to be fair I haven't been getting a whole lot into the newest Star Wars so I'm picking classic and recent Star Wars movies and shows that intrigue me personally. And Tales of the Jedi was one of those shows on Disney + that defiantly intrigued me especially when we explore a backstory behind an underappreciative character.

               Basically, a collection of shorts featuring parables built around Jedi from the Prequel era; the lives of two distinctively different Jedi: Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku; each will be put to the test as they make choices that will define their destinies.

                Of course the one character that intrigued me into watching this show and of course it was Count Dooku, for many reasons ever since his appearance, portrayed by the late great Christopher Lee, he's always been a character that interesting but not as interesting Darth Maul or Darth Vader and really what makes him great now especially after binging on Tales of the Jedi, was that Dooku when you first see him going on his first mission with his young padawan Qui-Gon and slowly learns how badly corrupt politicians are throughout the Galaxy furthermore when he is partnering up with Mace Windu and you see Mace in a different light that you blindly see from the movie or the cartoon shows and you begin to side more with Dooku until he makes a decision that would change everything, mainly selling his soul to Satan if you catch my meaning. And I always been interesting with Ahsoka Tano ever since her first appearance in Star Wars, the Clone Wars movie and you can all say what you want about Anakin as a Jedi or you know what, I'm going to say Master so, SUCK IT! But even Anakin shows how great of a teacher he is especially when realizing the flaws behind the typical Jedi training and takes the training to the next level for which really is the more interesting part about this small show because even stuff like this was the main reason why Ahsoka survived when another Jedi didn't. Now I can go on and on about how great this show is but in all honesty I to spoil the entire show and closing if you’re a Star Wars fan and don't know which good Star Wars show or movie to watch this is most certainly a show worth watching.
